ferad. We believe the better sense OF
the American people will conclude that
the President has allowed his temper to

regret that in the treatment of this case
he has, under the ell influence OF an In
capable and hysterical Secretary of State,
acted in a way to forfeit something of the
high opinion which his fellow citizens
had of him. We trust he will make haste
to dismiss Mr. Bayard and get himself a
Secretary Of State on whose self posses
sior, calmness and serious advice he can
more safely depend.
