President will be incurred as never d
President was before. In every household
in the land there will be grief as keen
as If on g of its own members had been
taken away. His patience and toTtitude
in his long illness has endeared him to
every person, and the blow falls upon all

THE AUTOPSY.
Long Branch, 20.-The autopsy OF the
Presidents body commenced abou: 5
O'Clock, aud was not concluded until
nearly s. A large crowd Of PERSONS as
sem bed st Elberon to hear the result.
Bliss stated thft the autopsy had been
very tedious, and the time occupied ia
searching for the ball alone was nearly
three quarters Of an hour. Mrs. Garfield
was feeling much relieved sssince the au-
topsy, inasmuch as it resulted in estAb-
fishing the fact that the patients death
was inevitable. The point Of the ball
was somewhat blunt or in a battered
condition. caused by the force with which
it struck the rib. while in other respects
its original shape was not altered. Bliss
took charge of the bullet, and sealed it
for preservation until the courts should
require its production.
The state of New Jersey has issued
3 permit for the removal of the body.
Colonel Corbin and w. s. ReOse,
members Of the Christian Church, Wash
ngton. which the late President attended,
