LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE Dolly Telegraph
says President Arthur's message to con-
gress will not rank with great efforts made
on similar occasions by many of his prede-
cessors. II ever state paper presaged
the warning influence and the coming
downfall of political party, it is the mes
sage delivered yesterday by a man so blind
to the true interest lying ahead of him, land
so infirm of purpose as President Arthur.
The Daily Ne,cs says: 1t seems that
Presidents Arthur has taken to heart the
lesson Of the late elections. The passage
in his message pronouncing in favor of
civil service reform must be intended as
an offer of reconciliation to disaffected Re-
publicans. Referring to the financial part
of the message, the Neips says: If the re-
duction of the national debt proceeds at
last years rates, the protective tariff must
fall to the ground because there will be no
means of expanding the enormous surplus
when the debt is effaced.
The Times says there is now no doubt
that President Arthur, after a series of
cautious tactical movements, has placed
himself at the head of the stalwart party
and succeeded in detaching from Republi-
can connection the reformers and indie
pendents who, if few in number, are
among the most eminent for capacity and
character.
