HOW AMERICANS FEEL.

Throughout the United States. and
doubtless throughout the civilized world,
the sorrow over the cruel death Of Pres
ident Carnot. like that over the assas-
sinatlon of the beloved Lincoln. takes
more the character OF personal be-
rcavement than OF a public calamity.
The general feeling liz more like the
grief caused by the loss of near and
dear friend than the shock occasioned
by a crime affecting whole nation.
In Lincoln's case this was. OF course.
comprehensive, His gentle. loving ma
people more the character of a father
than a chief magistrate. His policy.
pursued Ia his own beautiful language,
with malice towards none. with char
ity for ALL" had softened the bitterness
of strife even In the midst OF war, and
had made the road to peace more easy.
The news Of his murder was not so much
a shock to the brain as a psng to the
heart.
1t has been much the same In the case
of the killing OF President Carnot. The
American people have Ericved over the
death OF the man more than over the
loss France has endured. The condo
lonces sent over the cable from our Gov
eminent have had in them more earnest
sincerity OF feeling than Is ordinarily
found In such expressions Every one
is truly sorry for the family OF the de-
ceased This feeling Is no doubt due to
the personal character Of the man. His
blameless life. his earnestness. fidelity
and patriotism, have endeared him to
men beyond the limits Of his own ma
tion. and excited for him a personal sym
patty as well as a public respect.
1t is no mere sentimentalitv. but a
plain truth, to say that the American
people weep with France over her
heavy and most deplorable bereave-
ment.

THE COUNTRY SAFE.

President Clevelands statement re-
Garding the financial situation contains
much that is reassuring. At the same
time the fact that II Is considered cx-
pedient to put 1t forth must be taken as
an indication OF the anxiety felt at
Washington.
The President has word OF COM
incubation for the New York banks
for their offer OF gold. and reiteratcs
with an emphasis that partakes OF a
hint OF n bond issue II needed. the
pledge and determination of the Gov
crnment to protect the National credit
at all hazards, and to keep up the quail
ity OF our money.
His main objects, however. appear to
be to administer q rebuke to mischiev-
GUS .croakers, and to show by compari-
son that We are very much better of
now than we were when the last bond
Issue occurred.
In the former of these objects public
sentiment will be with him: in the lat
ter the facts are clearly on his side
In the former emergency, the stock
OF gold was nearly as low as now while
we had only nineteen million dollars
available money to pay ordinary ex-
penses. Now we have more than nifty
three millions. 1t Is not true that the
payment OF matured obligations is post
poned. We are paying as we go. More
over, there has been a change OF nearly
one hundred and twenty-eight million
dollars In our favor. arising from the
exports and imports OF merchandise. ex-
elusive OF gold. Up to June 1. 1893. the
balance was sixty-four millions against
us. This year 1t Is sixty-two millions
in our favor. Besides we are no longer
buying useless silver and paying for
II In gold obligations.
This is plain and Ineligible. rs Mr.,
Clevelands explanations usually are.
1t may be added. too. that We are near
ing the end OF the unpatriotic and
selfish obstruction of the Senate to
tariff legislation. Before long the evil
Of uncertainty will be out OF the way
and the general business and Industries
Of the nation will be released from the
condition OF paralysis In which they
have been held for so long time.
The gold reserve must be kept w. of
course, but the country is safe ana con
ndcnce and wise action on the part of
| the banks at the turning point are
alone needed to bridge over any tenn
porary difficulty The Presidents state
ment is timely and Will do good.

MORT. RIVER BRIDGE PROMENADE

In Saturdays Evening World" there
appeared an interview, obtained at the
Offices Of rhc New York and New Jersey
Bridge Company, In which the feastbil-
ity OF having II promenade along the
coming North River span was admitted,
II was said. however that a public de-
mand would probably be necessary to
secure the planning and building OF this
desirable feature of the bridge,
There can be do doubt OF the pleasure
which the public would take in the
promenade proposed. 1t would be one
OF the most magnificent walks In the
whole world. There would be health
and inspiration for the pedestrian a,
every step. 1t would be almost crime
should the bridge be finally built and
the promenade omitted.

Simmer Drinks.

drinkers ideal but 1t is the one selec-
ton that has a measure Of flavor for
all. Keep lemons, Ice and loaf sugar on
hand and a spirit lamp on the dining
table. Make tea every two hours, or for
every adult visitor. A sea Of tea will
have to be consumed to make the
drinker sallow, but better the hide of a
Hindoo from the tea habit than the risk
of cultlvating one Kelley patient. II
