Cabinet appointnents. they characterize
them as al Of a kind and not of the Gar
held class; but those that have been made
are not so distasteful as those expected
hereafter The mere mention of George s.
Boutwell, for a Cabinet position caused a
general rise OF the temper of the half breeds
throughout the state. with an apparent
preparation for a general attack upon
the president. They are aching for a
fight and watching for the opportunity.
The half breeds of the interior have
already found their. excuse in the
displacement of Daniel G.. Fort, half
breed, from the position of Collector OF
Oswego, and the nomination of John j.
Lamoree, stalwart of the stalwarts, in
his place Mr. Lamoree was one of the
supporters of Mr. Cuilinan for the Assem-
blv, and refused to entertain any scempro-
mise with the half breeds short of the
withdrawal of their candidate against him,
and has been one of the most outspoSen
Conkling men in that section. This APP
pointment set alt the interior half breed
papers barking, and from it they draw the
conclusion that none of their set are wan
ted in any of the offices. The Utica Her
asd half breed Republican, has declared
that Mr.. Lamoree's nomination is difficult
to justify on any grounds, and not the
worst that can be said against it is that
it viii be thoroughly distastetnl to the Re
publicans of Oswego City and kcounty."
So the half-breeds are recognized as the
only republicans of oswegol Other pa
.pers of the same class are equally vehement
in their comments. All of this shows that
the half-breeds have become convinced
that the ''Old Guard" is again comingt to
the front {E 1881 s5.-f

REPUBLICAN FELICITY.

The half breed dissatisfaction with the
course of the administration keeps grow
ing worse Instead of better. The appoint
ments of Arthur are all of them distasteful
to the views of the republican party, and
Speaker Keifersmade anything but popu-
lar selections in his naming of the com
mittees.. From all over the country comes
the half-breeG howl, but especially from
New York. In that state the feeling is
outlined by the World which says:

up their growing at the President, The

A cable special from London of
December 10th says: There is no
rift in the gloom that hangs over
Ireland. On the contrary, crime
and violence are on the increase,
and unmistakably the spirit of
hostility is spreading on this side of
the channel. The Lord Mayot's
establishment of u fund for ladies'
who have lost their income
through the non-payment of rent
has been followed by much more
important step. He has decided
to start fund to aid the Property
Defense Association.
The November returns of crime
in Ireland show there were SOL
offenses last year, against $40 this
year, with the Coercion Act. The
decrease is chiefly in threatening
letters, the actual outrages being
about thirty more. The propor-
ton has Increased for December
The Irish farmers are more gener-
ally adopting the "no rent" policy,
even on good estates. The situa
ton is therefore darker, because
the reductions of the Land Court
are proving unsatisfactory.
The Times has changed its law
and has exhibited proposal to
bring Irish murderers for trial to
England. The Tablet proposes ex.
actions from each township or dis
trict of compensation for injury to
persons as we'll as property.
Two prominent members of the
Land League have been arrested
in Cork under the Coercion Act.
The Times says: ut cannot be
too strongly insisted upon that we
have to deal in Ireland not only
with determined revolutionists
personally interested in running
the owners of. property, and q
peasantry united In a freemasonry
of terrorism, but also with the de-
moralizing agency of foreign sub
sldies. Fenianism in America
raises large sums for the mercena

The President.

WAsHlNGToN, Sept 1O.-Col. Rockwell
tonight said the President takes nourisb.
merit freely and has eaten wcodcock. milk
porridge and bouillon with relish. Colonel
Reed sent a dozen fine squirrels to the Presi.
dent to day. DR.. Agnew arrived tonight
and on entering the room said:
"Mr. President, you have improved consid
erably since I last saw you.'
D you think so ?" said the President.
Hamilton left this evening to return Tues,
day next. The Presidents easy chair arrived
from Washin. ton to day.
Blaine said tonight, "Everything is going
splendidly and there will be 10 further trou-
BILE from the gland. The President men.
toned this morning that he had been isolated
from Cabinet officers for a long time, and ex-
pressed a desire to see them. | told him,
now that he was convalescent, l didn't think
1t would injure him to soc members quietly
and at intervals, if their visits could be very
brief, andgth-y will be very considerate and
careful. hhsFor breakfast he ate woodcock, an
entire piece of toasted bread, with the excep.
ton OF crust, and some cruel. At noon he had
another bird, and some beef extract. This
evening he will probably confne himself to
Liquids. There was no foundation for the
rumer that be was nauseated last night. He
was only overfed and uncomfortable. Bliss
insisted that there was nothing of a serious
character about the lungs If there had been
it would have developed itself. The fatren
found in the lungs was caused by the passage
OF he ball through the border of the dia-
phragm. II there was any trouble then
caused by septicamia it would be pro-
nounced in the temperature and there would
have been a higher febrile li.e at once
and the equable condition could not exist.
HAS the president given any special evil
dence of cheerfulness or. interest in matters
generally to-day ?"
"Yes, he expressed himself a. DESTROYS of
looking upon the ocean, and exhibits consid-
cradle interest in matters generally. The
catheter penetrated ten inches when l used it
last. l have selected a small catheter now
which intend using. Agnew called my at
~tention to-day to a filling upon the wei, side,
near the hip, and l don't know but it
Is so. l see very plainly that the liver and
expression Of his face ale more firm and each
has more and betterexpr-ssion than he had"
"ls there any evidence Of the wound gran
ulating?"
"Yes. ] know it is granulat ing and rough
handling would make it bleed now, while a
week ago 1t would not"
Mrs. Garfield feels great confidence in her
husbands recovery at midnight. The Presi-
dents condition continues favorable.

A Detectives Story of the Robber,

ST. LOUIS, Sept. GA detective Of the ex-
press companies, who has been on the track
OF the express robbers, for a long time, left
here for the west this morning. He says that
correspondents in Jackson county gave the
company warming ten days ago that there
was going to be another robbery ATTEMPTED,
but neither the exact time nor place could be
ascertained, aud therefore 80 steps could be
taken TO prevent it. This detective believes
'hat the leading gang contemplates still an
other robbery before they leave for their
hiding places in the southeast. He also be.
ileves that Frank James and some two or
three OF the older leaders were concerned in
the robbery at Mission. The gang, be saws.
