The Memphis Avalanche, noticing
the fact that the Southern press is
unanimous in denunciation of the
attcpted assassination of the Presi-
dent, says:
For the first time since the close Of
the war, the Northern press express
es the unanimous conviction that the
South is restored to loyalty and de-
votion to the union. The spontlni-
ETY. OF the Southern outburst of grief
on account of the attempted assassi

and sincerity of this manifestation
has taught the people of the North
that everywhere the American PEG
pie are one, in sympathy, feeling and
devotion to the interests of the
country.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, ID. G., July 20, 1881,
"There il no danger that We can
now sec" said ono Of thepresident's
physicians this morning. But for nc
cidents, none Of which can be fore
seen, the physicians would issue
bulletin announcing the presidents
safety for in tho natural course OF
his case there is no longer anything
more to fear, A rapid recovery OF
health and strength is looked for, and
plans for out Of door entertainments
Of tho patient are under considera.
ton.
It is said that Guiteau is engaged
in completing an autobiography com.
lnenced some years ago, and that, il
permitted, he will publish it, He is
very carefully guarded, and soplaced
as to prevent communication with
any other prisoner. It Inns been sug-
gested by Appointment official that for
the attempt on the presidents life it
may be tried on a charge Of treason,
but the crime committed by him is
already decided in the laws in force
here, "assault with intent to kill"
For this and only this can he tried
and punished.
Some OF the changes among Off
cials determined upon before the as
sassination, will be made soon. The
president speaks of them frequently.
The names Of individuals to be ia
'vored have been kept entirely secret.
The only branch Of the government
which pays its own expenses-the
patent office--seems likely so to in
crease in its work as to require the
whole of the vast building in which
it is now, with other bureaus Of the
interior department, located.
Last week 1862 patents We're issued,
besides trademarks, labels, etc. This
is the largest work ever done in the
Office.
Government receipts from all sour
COS continue to be unprecedently
large. They are now at the rate of
more than a million Of dollars per
day. The prospect for the debt re-
duction this month is as good as last.
By October Secretary WINDOWS re-
funding scheme will have been COM
pleted, and he announces lessening
of the interest charge from that alone
of over million and quarter dol
lars per month.
Among the distinguished Demo
Gratis here during the past week none
have received more attention than the
ever popular ex-Spcaker Randall.
He is credited with belief that the
Republicans will have difficulty in or
the next house, and with
having his eye on the speakership, but
he probably anticipates nothing OF
the kind. It seems almost certain
that the Republicans will have ma
jority of members.
Hon. John g. Thompson of Ohio
is here, and speaks freely of politi-
cal affairs in that state. He was not
in favor of the nomination Of Book
walter as the Democratic candidate
for governor, but will support him
earnestly. Owing to recent events,
he says; the Republicans will be un.
tied, and the chance for Democratic
success is not as good as month
ago. LEM

John G, SAKE Dead.

The poet John G. SAKE is dead
The hypochondria induced by family

now ended, and he is at rest from

Washington, S1.-It appears from re

the Interior, that last summer, Low Dog
a Sioux Indian, meeting q mail carrier
near Tongue Ri yer, Montana, murdered
him and robbed his person and mail.
Low Dog was subsequently, found in pos
session Of q package Of letters and pro-
perry Of the carrier, and confessed the
crime, but eluded arrest, and Joined Sit.
ting Bull across the line. Last month
he came in with . small party of Sioux,
and surrendered to the military at Fort
Buford. The civil authorities thereupon
manifested = purpose 10 bring him to
trial for murder, but the officer COM
mandinR st Fort Buford protested, say-
ing such proceeding would prevent the
surrender OF Sitting Bull. which WAS
certain, otherwise, to take place in few
days. The departments of war, interior,
and justice accordingly united in order
ing the marshal not to make the arrest.
The postotfice department, whose en-
ploJee was murdered, does not seem TO
have been invited to participate. At all
events, Low Dog is comfort able con-
