A WONDERFUL NGE.

When the President was shot he had
iust fairly entered upon the four years
term for which he was elected. While
the wisdom of some Of his officia' acts,
he was given almost universal credit for
proceeding rron honest motives, and
having, in view cf all attending circ.lm-
stances, adopted the only policy. COM
patible with se!f-reapect The people
of New York State, wherein the split
in the Republican party occurred, had
in unmistakable manner approved tue
Presidents action. The rigid investi-
cation of the Star-route thieves had
brought down upon the head of the
President, the Attorney General and
the Postmaster General the wrath of
certain tried and true but over-thrifty
patriots. Threats, dire. if impotent,
haI been mad against General Garfield
because he dared to attempt to purify
the public service. The outlook for an
easy, going smoothly drifting Adminis-
tration was not promising. Many men
to WHOM the President was compare
tive stranger looked with apprehension
npon the course he was following.
Now all is changed. The President is
no longer a stranger to man, woman or
child in the Republic. They have
wept over his impending death, they
have watched with anxious hearts for
his recovery, and are now rejoicing III
the prospect of his restorati III to health
II he lives General Garfield will, in all
probability, be elerted for second
term. The people have confidence in
his ability, courage and disposition TO
govern the couvtry we'll They will &C
ccpt his iut gements under the law ten
derby. No President ever had les 5
need of a defined policy than has Gen
eral Garfield to-day. His mistakes
will not be regarded as crimes His
Cabinet will not be broken. The tie
which binds it's members to the Prcsi
dent is do lbly knotted. 1t may be thai
the shooting of the President was a
blessing awful. disguised.
Daily Republican., 1881-07-18
POLITICAL PROSPECTS.
The Effect Of the shooting Upon
the Future Admiuistr ration,

the Future Administ rnSiOu.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press writing from Washington thus
speaks of the effects Of the shooting of
the President in future politics:
There has been great deal of specu
lation among politicians here regarding
the effect which the attempted ;issas.
sination of the President will have up
on national politics. Now that the
Presidents recovery may he regarded
as a settled conclusion, il Is not strange
that people should begin to discuss the
bearing ofthc calamity upor the future.
1t is safe to assume that General Gar
field never enjoyed the love of the peo
Pile as he does to-day. All hearts went
out in sympathy with him ~hen he
was shot, and the would be, assassin $
ball made the peoples President, the
peoples idol. In the estimation OF
thousands he will be regarded rs Il
man miraculously preserved to perform
a great aud glorious mission AZ the
head Of the nation. Even those who
will more practically attribute his re-
covery to skilifnl medical attendance
cannot but regard him with deeper and
warmer feelings than if he had never
been shot. T!.enames of Lincoln, ,Grant,
and Garfield will occupy dearer inches
in the hearts of Americans than those
of any thre" Presidents since the time
of Washington. LincOln's memory is
adortd as worshipers love the memory
of martyrs. Grant, the preserver of the
Union, will never be forgotten, and
General Garfield, who was cruelty laid
at death ) door by the upproyoked shot
of Guiteau, will for a long time at least
have the love and entire confidence OF
the people

An ALLEGED Fossil MAN.

At Ashley, a Mr.. McCauly has the con-
tract from the Wilkesbarre coal and iron
company for sinking coal shaft. It is 20
feet square and is intended to have two
tracks for carriages to run in hOisting up
the coal and is said to be the largest open
ing of the kind in the coal regions. 1t is
located near the base Of the mountain and
has reached depth of 475 feet. On Sat.
urday last, when tho gang, or what
is known as the second shift OF
men, were about retiring, after firing off a
course of holes, Tom Cassidy, the fore
man, descended the shaft to ascertain the
result Of the explosion and was astOnished
to find an immense cavity in one of the
sides of the shaft. The explosion appear
ed to have a terrible effect and caused
more damage than benefit on account OF
an unnecessary opening in one side, but
his astonishment was still greater in
creased on clearing away some of the dirt
and refuse of rock blown by the shots to
discover a solid mass of rock in which
appears clearly defined human shape OF
giant proportions. All the limbs, mus.
cles and lineaments are apparent. The
rock is about 16 feet in length, 10 in
breadth and about 8 in thickness. The
dimensions of the human frame are
giantly, measuring 12 feet in length and 4
feet across the chest. Across the breast is
the impression of hugo shield about 4
feet in circumference, while the right hand
clutches the brOken and butt end of q
large cutlass or sword. The rock was
taken out whole and is now in possession
of Mr.. McCauly.

SERIOUSLY HUkT.

Runaway Accidentally mas Hip Dislocated.
Yesterday afternoon as VIM. MalOnOy,
aged Is years, accompanied by another boy,
was driving horse and wagon belonging
to VIM. Kahl along Arch alley, the horse
took fright and ran of. When near Orange
street, the wagon struck against post,
and MalOney was thrown out and hurled
against fire plug, and a brick machine
which was on the wagon was thrown
out upon him, striking him upon
the head and cutting and bruising
him badly. He was picked up
after some time had elapsed, and taken
to his home on West James street, near
Charlotte, where he was attended by DR..
Davis. 1t was found that his thigh bone
was dislOcated but the skull bone unin-
jured, and that he had received a number
Of cuts and contusions in other parts of
the body. The dislocatiOn was reduced
and the other wounds dressed by DR..
Davis, and to-day the patient is doing
az we'll as could be expected under
the circumstances. The boy who was
along with Maloney, escaped with slight
injury. The horse ran out of Arch alley
and down Orange street for some distance,
where he was caught. He escaped with
slight damage, but the wagon was pretty
badly wrecked. The horse is said to be
somewhat addicted to running away, hay
ing been guilty OF a similar offense two or
three times before.

MinOrity Counties.

In no political calculation will it do to
ignore so-called minority districts.
As we have often had occasion to point
out, no class of Democrats are better
entitled to recognition from the party at
large than those who toll in and out of
season for the party, without hope OF
prospect of reward, and with no such
incentive as stimulates political exertion
and maintains the organization where
the control of the local Offices is in
the hands of the Democracy. As
we have, too, shown by calculations,
frequently, in this county, for instance,
where the minority are completely over.
slaughed in numbers, they keep their
vote advancing at a much higher per.
centage of increase than the average OF
the party throughout the state, and in
their own poll cast for Democratic state
or national candidates far more votes
than most of the boasted majority dis
tricts. Lancaster county's vote for Han
cock was only exceeded by that of seven
other counties in the whole state, and
three of those-Philadelphia, Allegheny
and Montgomery-were so-called mi
nority counties" Indeed. of tbe
4C7, ,42S votes polled for the last
Democratic candidate for president in
Pennsylvania, 81, ,046, or considerably
moro than half, came from " minority
counties. Over half the members of the
party live in counties where there il
scant chance of reaping political honors
