by the man Bagley, about a plot to kill
General Arthur, it is perhaps enough to
say that assassirs do not usually dis
cuss their intentions on the public
streets in the open manner described
by this excisahle person. Some half
drunken fool may have said something
about killing Arthur, but that there is
anything serious in the matter we do not
believe. Nevertheless, all such rumors at
such time produce apprehension, and the
fact that it has been thought advisable to
furnish President Arthur with a guard is
not calculated to allay the general un-
easiness. Unhsppily it is no longer pos
sible to boast about the security with
which our rulers go in and out. 1t has
been shown that they arenomore secure than
the sovereigns OF Europe. Nor can we
argue anything from the absence of mo-
tives for assailing taem, for President Gar
field had given no man cause for hostility,
and yet he was murdered. Under the cir
cunstances the able editors who affect to
treat rumors of further assassinations with
lofty contempt, are very irrational, for
as matter of fact they have no warrant
whatever for any feeling of confidence in
the future. Time alone can remove the
doubt and anxiety which now cloud the
public mind, and in the existing situation
it must be expected, not only that alarm
ing reports will be circulated, but that they
will for the moment be believed.

FLYIEc REPORTS.

The most curious reports are being oircu-
lated at Washington regarding the inten-
items of the new Administration. Among
the most singular of them are the reports
that George Gorham is TO be given the
Office of Public Printer, and that ex-Sen-
ator Dorsey is to be offered the portfolio OF
the Postmaster General. 1t is also said
that Gorham is to be the Republican eau
Gus nominee for Secretary of the Senate,
though merely as compliment, since the
Democrats will elect the Secretary. It is
of course perfectly apparent that if Presi-
dent Arthur means to carry ont the policy
of General Garfield, he cannot begin BY
rewarding the men who were the most un-
serupulous and bitter foes of the late Adj
ministration. In fact the appointment Of
George Gorham to public Office, and the
ofFer of Cabinet position to Dorsey,
would be notice to the country that
General Garfeld's programms was to be
not merely antagonizsd, but reversed.
GUE Nullc NDiuduA woo AiOoO GNAAiAA-
Ious and defamatory aasailant OF the late
President, Dorsey is implicated in
the Star route frauds, and Gorham
has also acquired an evil notoriety by his
impudent defense of those frauds, It
would consequently be impossible to select
any two men in the country whose ap-
pointment to Office would more swiftly and
eonclusively destroy all hope of govern
mental reform, or would more emphatically
and unmistakaoly commit the new Admin
istration to positive alliance with the cor
rapt rings President Garfield was fighting
with all his might when he was assassin
zsed. To believe President Arthur capa-
BILE Of rewarding Gorham, or Dorsey, or
both of them, aud especially at such a
5nncture, is to believe him capable of TAX
ins the side of the rings against the peo-
pie, and Of boldly repudiating, at the very
outset of his Presidential career, the policy
20 which he has already pledged himself in
his inaugural address. Those who are put
ting forward these rumors, therefore, are net
his friends. They are indeed apparently
endeavoring to undermine bis reputation
By attributing TO him purposes which
would disgrace him. Such rumors are SO
apt to be believed, moreover, that it is
necessary to warn the puhlio against ac-
ceptance of them. We have as yet no
means of knowing what President Arthur
contemplases, but it would be doing him a
grave injustice TO receive as true reports
which place him in so bad light, and for
which there is absolutely no foundation,
50 far as the public know. In fact his only
public utterance is his inaugural address,
and the man who wrote that can assuredly
not make it consist with his promises to
the nation to begin his career by singing
egt the Gorhams and the Darseys for hon.
crable recognition and the reward of place

ASSASSINATION cANARDs.

Recent events have naturally made the
public nervous and apprehensive, and at
such time tits to be expected that wild
reports will get abroad, such as that an
nounciRg the shooting of President Arthur
on Wednesday night. Nor is it of any
use to talk Of the absnrdlty of such re.
ports to people who have seen the most
Incredible news of the same kind proved
all too true within the past three months.
There is nothing more preposterous in the
supposition that President Arthur has been
shot than there was in the announcement
that President Garfield had been shot
yet that report was true. It is one of the
most mischievous legacies Of such crimes
that they shake all confidence in the
peaceful and orderly Continuity OF events.

not be another! As regards the story told

TIE QUEENS womANLY sYMpATHY.

There is something very grateful and
tender about the expressions of sympathy
which Queen Victoria has sent to the
family of the murdered President. Her
last message, desiring that her coincidence
be conveyed as well TO President Garfield's S
mother as to his wife, and concluding with
q request for photograph of thu late
President, has nothing of the dignity
of the sovereign about it, but is a
simple. genuine and kindly mani.
festation Of affectionate sympathy
from one woman to another. The
deep feeling shown by Queen Victoria
throughout the recent sad events Will not
be forgotten By the American people. They
have respected and admired her hitherto
because of hsr virtues, but benceforth they
willfeelthsta tie exists between themselves
and her which IS far more binding and psr-
snanent, because it consists il the recog-
nitiou of real and spontaneous sympathy
snd sorrow, exhibited in the most natural
and simple way. in our hour of Safiiiction.
