ANOTHER OPERATION
PerfOrnnPd ON the President
Monday.

EXECUTIVE MANSION, ! p. m.-Th6
Necessity for the operation which wa
performed npon the President this NOR.
ming became apparent to the surgeon,
yesterday, when they found that III,
drainage tube OF the size hitherto used
could no longer bc passed along thi
track Of the bali between the ribs. The
process OF grauulation IA that point had
growE 81 far ~ 10 br partially close the
nriGrc, and the ribs prevented the push
ing aside Of the flesh, which was heal
Ing between them enough 81 that the
tube could Doe introduced. The result
Of r!ris state Of things was that pus fer
med in thc deeper parts of the wound
rather faster tian it could escape
through the half Ob.trurtch opening
between the ribs, and its gradual accil-
mutation began to cause disturbance.
It was, therefore, decided TO make n
new opening into the track OF the ball
below the last rib, 50 that the ribs
should no longer prevent the keeping
open Of the wound by the solid backing
which they afforded to the granulation
was performed, at the request Of the
other surgeons, by IN. Agnew. As
soon rs the patient had been put under
the influence of etlirr Il long and Slight
~ curved instrument was introduced
into the wound, pushed between the
ribs and carried downward along the
track of the bullet until lis end could
be felt below the last rib from the out
side. Holding this instrument in ihe
wound, a. guide. DR.. Agnew made Il
counter inrisiOa blow the 18th rib,
cutting directly through the iEtegu-
ment mill his knife met the end of the
first mentioned instrument ut Il point
where he wished TO intcrscct the track
Of thC ball. The operation was not Il
difficult or dangerous one, and the pa
ticnt bore both it and the ether eXtrem-
ly we'll. There is now an opening to
the deeper parts of the wound, which
does not pass between the ribs and
which can always be kept free and I'M
INSTRUCTED, and no further treble from
the accumulation Of pus is anticipated.
Since the operation the President has
rested quietly and IS now asleep. His
pulse ut this hour is 100, and he has
neither fever nor any other u%nflyora-
bic symptom.

The Lesson Of tile Attempt 10
Murder thc President.

Saturday Review: Possibly
there may be one favorable result
Of this miserable affair. The
Americans have been treating
very lightly the threats and muir
derouS contpiracies Of some Irish
boosters and blackguards who
live among them. They have
chosen TO regard the raising OF
money for aSsurdly murderous
purposes as Il harmless eccentric
Ity. They have tolerated speech
es in which prOmiscuOuS munder
on Il large scale and indiscumi-
nate slaughter by aid OF internal
machines were advocated us pa
triotic duties. 1t has been their
line to take all this as the mere
e%lervescent of free speech, a
harmless froth upon the surface
of Republican life. They have
now learned TO their cost that
murder is no childs play, and that
Il man is not necessarily harm
less because he chershes and up
holds theories Of assassination.
They now know that Il temper is
prevalent which makes the life Of
every public man unsafe. A fool.
ish creature has been saying that
it is his mission TO shoot Blaine.
Missions Of this sort are growing
quite popular. As long as the
missions were to be executed on
this side of the Atlantic, as long
as English houses and ships were
to be blown up and English
statesmen threatened, the mat
ter seemed unimportant. Amer
lea could not understand our po-
lice work. But she has learned
that to permit or encourage eX.
amples Of this sort may not be
without danger to herself. Nor
atty is sometimes said to be n
mere affair Of geography. Dis
appointed olfice-seekers will fail
to see why they may not do in
Washington the things that Irish
rulfians are permitted to prepare
to do in England.

in his estimation, the greatest
man in the world-Charles j.
Guiteau. He expects to have it
printed some day in the newspa
pers. He is now, it appears, anX-
ious to have the president live,
several weeks Of meditation in
jail having convinced him that
there is little glory and less pleas
ure in being hanged. A gentle
man who has had several oppor.
tunitieS Of seeing him recently
said to a Star reporter: "He is
the mcanest looking man | ever
saw, and he seems to grow mean
er looking every time see him.
His features are regular enough
but there is n ~hang-dog look
about him that | never saw about
any other man. Such mean-look-
eyes / never saw before. His
pictures hatter him. He looks
he is-a beat! Gui-
teau does not like the prison fare
much. He wants to have his
meals sent to him from the out
side. AS he has no money, Of
course this could not be done.
His experience in The Toombs, in
New York. it is thought prompt
ed the demand to have his meals
sent in.
Guiteau recently wrote a long
letter to Judge Wylic, who snow
out of the city, asking to be adj
mitted to bal. The letter dis
casses the case, Of which he gives
u history, claiming that it is a
builablc case, and also on the
question ofbail he suggests that
