| After repeated disappointments and many
delays, enlivened by occasional flashes of ftful
energy, often misdirected, the people generally
concluded that the undertaking had proved

was welcome to it. New-York looked
on it as by-gOne so far as she was
concerned and turned to other things. For
the last two months the Washington tragedy
has filed all minds and Worlds Fairs have not

to die, he will not perhaps have whole people
watching over him, nor have messages from
kings of all nations to cheer his way to the
grave. But If his character in his quiet home
has been as blameless as that of James Gar
field, if his course in his humber field of duty
has been as manly and as true, the mourning
for him will be precisely the same in kind
though not in extent No triumphant victories
on the battlefield could conquer for him that
tender deep regard no money could buy it,
For the man Garfield himself, if it is Gods
will to remove him from us, we should, did we
look at his fate Alright shed no tears of vain re-
greet. He has done his work well. Few men
find a life of steady, persistent endeavor for the
right in everyday duties rewarded by call to
rule over mighty Nation; nor when the sum-
mons from the great Master comes for them to
"go up higher" do they hear the verdict of the
good of all lands, Yell done, good and faithful
servant"
To the country itself, in the minds of even
many faithful Christians, the loss of Garlield's
hand at the helm is great and irreparable.
Men who are not Christians, but who have
closely watched the history of any people, know
that the loss of any individual does not inter
fere with its steady progress. Principles

American life are, how just, how honest, how
stern in condemnation of tricllery and corrup-
ton, the public feeling since the Presidents
assassination has shown. The man who mis-
takes the tone and temper of the American
people and commits himself to that mistake,
after the experience Of the last two months, is a
fool whose folly will bring its own punishment.
We have had enough of tricky politicians and
their tools in high places The Nation has
learned, since March, 1877, what plain, honest.
sober God-fearing men in the White House
can do for it. Garfeld's murder is not likely to
make them forget the lesson.
For the rest Of our anxiety and fears what
ever happens, let us remember that Goa lives.
The Source from which came Garfeld's pure
life, his honor courage and truth, and the re-
sponsive virtue and nobility III the people
which recognized these traits in him, is eternal.

Probably the best that can now be said about
the Presidents condition is that he has the one
chance to recover in a Thousand, which he
was told was all he had Just after he was shot,
and which he so cOurageouSly said he would
take. He is greatly exhausted 10y the vitiation
of his blood and the prolonged drain upon his
scantily nourished vital powers. The surgeons
seem to haze almost abandoned hope. Even
DR.. Bliss, always the most sangUine of the
medical attendants, said yesterday his belief
was that the President could not recover. 1t
seems impossible for the processes of repair To
begin in his present low condition. Still there
are some encouraging symptoms even in this
last desperate strait of doubt bordering on
despair. The Presidents appetite seems to be
better than at any time in the last fortnight.
Yesterday he called for chicken Jelly and milk
toast, and ate them with relish. The nOurish-
ment given him is retained His mind is still
clear most OF the time, and the nOn-lucid inter
walls seem to be of dreamy rather than a de-
lirous character. The latest intelligence from
his bedside is, if not positively encouraging less
discouraging than any that has come during the
past twenty four hours. The country will
eagerly seize upon every word of cheer and will
refuse to believe that the worst is going TO
happen so long as there is Il shred of hope left
and that will be as long as the frail thread of
the sufferers life is unbroken.

and panoply of war the browning victory of the
Revolution.
Parliament was prorogued yesterday. The
session has been long and important one, and
with the antics of the Irish Obstructonsts, the
assault of Mr.. Bradlaugh on the dOorkeepers
and the long struggle over the Land bill, it has
been much more picturesque and dramatic than
sessions often are. The net results in political
point of view are strongly in favor of Mr.. Glad
stone, who has carried his measures through in
spite OF the stubborn opposition of the Tories
and the alf-hearted support of many of his
own party followers. Whether his great
measure for the relief of the distressed Irish
tenants will work out its intended objects re
mains to be seen; but there can be no question
as to the magnitude of the triumph the English
Premier has achieved in carrying it through a
weak and hesitating House of Commons, and
then forcing it upon an unwilling House of
Lords. lie has demonstrated anew and in a
signal manner the possession of the highest
qualities of bold and practical craftsmanship.
The Republicans of the Chautauqua and
Cattaraugus District have at last come to the
conclusion that the name of Loren b. Ses-
siOns is an unnecessary weight for them
to carry, and have therefore nominated
for State Senator in his stead Norman NJ Allen.
We need not now repeat our conviction
that as between Bradley's story and Sessons's
in regard to the alleged attempt on the virtue
of the former legislator all the probabilities
favor the account of the transaction given by
the latter Bradley proved himself poor
creature and has been dropped by
his constituents. Mr.. Sessions we have
always thought an improper person, by
reason of his theories and methods Of legisla-
ton, to. represent an honest Republican con
stituency, and the general discussion of his
character which resulted from the Bradley incl
dent has brought great many others to our way
of thinking. We do not believe the courts will
decide that he tried to bride Bradley, but the
fact that Bradley and his friends selected him
for that sort of attack was proof of general
shady repute which his constituents appear to
have appreciated. What merits he has will
certainly shine to greater advantage in private
life.

The saddest words that have come from the
White House, during the past eight weeks of
weary waiting and alternating hope and fear
spoken yesterday by the suffering Presi-
dent himself He asked Dr. Boynton whether
he had not been growing weaker, end finding
his own feelings confirmed by the reply, said ::
I" | wonder whether it is worth while to keep up
the struggle much longer" Not worth while for
him perhaps, but assuredly worth while for the
Nation, to which his life has become douhy
dear since he was stricken by the assassin's
bullet Death can have no terrors to him after
all he has endured, nor can life be precious
save for its opportunities of usefulness to coun-
try, friends and family for after reaching the
highest possible summit of a noble career spent
in the public service, he has found the honors
of his lofty place more bitter than Dead Sea
fruit. 1t is not strange that in moments Of weak
ness and pain he looks forward to the end of
his terrible struggle to a great and blessed
release. But the brave soldier does not give up
the battle yet. He did not say it was not worth
while to struggle any longer He makes one
last effort. God grant that he may win the
victory, and that out of the very jaws of death
he may yet be preserved to guide the Nation
which has learned to love and honor him as it
has loved and honored no man since Abraham
Lincoln.

The cordial feelings always entertained by
the American people toward Queen Victoria
have been greatly strengthened since the
tragedy at Washington by the repeated evil
dences of deep interest in the Presidents con-
ditiOn which have been afforded by her many
kilograms of inquiry and of sympathy with
Mrs. Garfield. AT every serious crisis in the
Presidents case there has come fresh mes
sage of hope and coincidence from Englands
sovereign. The tender wOman's heart of the
widowed Queen goes out to one who is threat
ened with loss like that which has befallen
her.
England is popularity supposed to be slow
going country, but her politics are often more
changeable than those of even the volatile
French Republic. Only few weeks ago the
Tories were eager for dissolution of Parlia-
ment, believing they could beat the Liberals at
the elections and regain possession of the Gov
eminent. Now they are weak and dispirited
Three elections to fill vacancies were held
last week, and resulted in walk-over for the
Liberals. The confidence and pluck the Tories
so lately showed seem to have oozed out of
them since Lord Salisbury's Notifying failure
to defeat the essential features of the Land
bill.
