Those entitled to carriages should apply to that

President Garfields face has very much
changed since yesterday, the discoloration of the
skin having extended, rendering it advisable to
powder the face in order 10 soften somewhat its
darkened hue. 1t was stated last night that the
coffin would be closed at 10 O'clock this MORN
ing on account of the change that had taken
place in the-dead mans face. but the body is still
lying in state and is being viewed by multitudes.
There will probably be no change made in the
original plan to allow the remains to be seen
until Tomorrow

BY The President Of Lse U.itef St1ses Of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
whereas In His inscrutable wisdom, IL has
pleased God to remove from Us the illus
trious head of the nation, James A. Garfield,
late President OF the United States; and where
as IL Is lifting that the deep grief which
mis- all hearts. should manifest Itself with one
accord toward the throne of infinite grace and
that we should bow before the Almighty and
seek irom Him that consolation in our ailiiction,
ahd that sanctiiication of our loss which He is
able and willing TO vouchsafe;
Now, therefore. in obedience to sacred DUTY
ana IN accordance with the desire of the people
i, Chester A. Arthur. President of the United
States OF America, do hereby appoint Monday
next. the 10Th day OF September, on which day
the remains OF our honored and beloved dead
viii be consigned TO their last resting place on
earth, to be observed throughout the United
States as day of humiliation and mourning:
and earnestly recommend all the people TO as
semble onAhat day in their respective places OF
Divine worship there to render alike their tribute
of sorrowful submission TO the viii of Almighty
God, and of reverence and love for the memory
and Character of our late Chief Magistrate. In
witness whereof have hereunto set my hand
ana caused the seal of the United States TO be
affixed.
Done at the city OF Washington. the o2d day

ELOQUENT WORDS FROM BRITISH STATESMEN-

COMPANY.

ELOQUENT WORDS FROM BRITISH STATESMEN-
THE LATE PRESIDENT INSURED IN A LONDON
COMPANY.
: LONDON, Sept. 22.-Sr Michael Hicks Beach,
speaking at Winchcomb said Guiteau's dastardly
action has caused a thrill OF horror throughout
the country, and the news OF the Presidents
death had occasioned q fresh thrill Of grief.
Sir Richard Assheton Cross speaking at War
rington, alluded feelingly to the death Of Presi-
dent Garfield.
Lord Randolph Churchill, speaking at Wood
stock said: During the struggle which the
stout hearted man had sustained with death,
England and America watched at his bedside,
and at every gathering Of Englishmen during
the next few days the catastrophe will be deeply
mourned."
Mr.. Charles Bradlaugh, speaking at North.
ampton. said that as radicals and liberals
they might lay reyerent and loving
tribute upon President Garfeld's grave and send
sympathy across the ocean. A resolution Of
coincidence was then passed and was forwarded
to Mr. Lowell. The LondoT. director of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United
States states that besides policy in the New
York Life Insurance company, Gen. Garfield
had also policy running with the Equitable
Society for IS coo.
The Times this morning. in a leader discussing
the court mourning, says: II is seldom that such
an announcement carries with it so deep sym.
pathy, and the entire concurrence not only Of Q
part, but Of the whole British nation. Gen. Gar
fields has been truly heroic career-heroic In
i;s beginning and its long struggle, and In 10
end.

Senator Ferry's Views.

HE THINKS NO SPECIAL SESSION OF CONGRESS
WILL BE CALLED.
SAN FRANCIscO, Sept. Ex-senator Perry. of
Michigan, who is temporarily in this city, in an
interview with Gail reporter, this evening, ex-
pressed the opinion that no special session of
Congress would be called. Such action would
arouse apprehension Of radical changes impend-
ing, and the Senator was of opinion that Presi-
dent Arthur intends to follow the line Of policy
marked out by Gen. Garfield. He believed the
republicans would organize the Senate, and that
President Arthur would not ask that body to
make any Cabinet changes.

Business to Be Suspended.

The business men upon Pennsylvania avenue
are taking measures to-day to secure the closing
of business establishments on that street to-
morrow, and\it is probable that there will be a
cooperation in this movement throughout the

of business. There is but one feeling prevailing
in the hearts of the entire community and that
is to leave nothing undOne that will serve to
manifest the grief of the people of Washington
ON this occasion.

A gentleman who came in from Falls Church,
Va, to-day, says that everywhere on the way
one sees the symbols of sadness hung over the
homes and business places of the people.

President Garfield's Life Insurance.

The Philadelphia agent Of the New York
Equitable Life Insurance Company, who in
sured the dead Presidents life for $4,000 ten
days before he was shot, is in the city. I'm a
brief conversation, he detailed the circumstances
of the taking out of the policy. According to his
statement, the company sent him over to
Elberon. while the President was there with his
sick wife. to try and get the latter to insure
with them. Mr.. Garfield was at first opposed
to the idea. not that he did not want to insure.
but because, as he stated to the
agent, he could not afford to pay
the premium. After a good deal of discussion
on the subject, however. the agent finally sue
ceeded in getting him to take out policy for
1O,00O, agreeing to take his note for the pre-
MUM, which amOuoted to over $500. President
Garfield gave two notes for the sum-one at
three and one at five months. Neither of them
have yet been paid, although one of them fell due
yesterday. The company has, however. sent on
its check for the amount of the insurance, and
will collect the notes from the estate The
agent. from whom the STAR man received the
above facts, said he had come on to Washington
expressly to deliver the check to Mrs. Garfield

CAPITAL LETTER.

BOISE CITY, April 5, 1881.
Ed. WoRLD:-For the past week
there has been so little doing that it is
hard to get an item worthy OF note.
Wood river still draws. Many are
leaving daily. What this great ex
element will come to it is not easy to
say.
Our Bridge Commissioners have at
last come TO a conclusion, and we are
going to have new bridge. 1t will
DC built about ono-halt mile abovethe
old one, where there is o much better
site.
The river is very high and is still
rising, and great fears are manifested
III regard to genel al overflow
should the weather continue warm.
Our County Commissioners are in
session, but what they are doing is
not yet known. Dame Rumor, that
reliable news carrier, says they are
not happy family-not a unit ON
bridges, school aud court houses.
However, be this as it may, they are
all reliable and successful business
men, old residenters, and men in
whom the community at large has the
utmost confidence.
The temperance revival still goes
on, and quite an interest is manifest.
