Jay Gould's locomotives are on

Ri'hhki.l Sage confides iu the
couservatlHin of Mr. Arthur.
Hai President Garlield lived till
the 19th of November he would have
been fifty years old.
It is understood that Hal (Jeiger
ha been elected to the legislature
from KuberUou county vice K. C.
Mobly resigned.
Fkom our dispatches it will he
seen that ample arrangements are
not being made to accommodate the
multidudes who will attend the
Yorktown celebration.
S en a to it Bayard says Democrats
will be ready to support Mr. Arthur
iu a conservative administration as
thoroughly as thev did Mr. llayes
during his last two years in ofilce.
The details of the accident yes
terday near Chester on the Rich-
mond aud Petersburg railroad
is attributed to a disregard
1 orders and if this be actually the
rase it calls loudly for judicial iu-
vestigation aud punishment for the
reckless disobedience of orders.
The doI'icv of Democrats will be
r j
to ofl'er President Arthur every
means to establish a wise adminis-
tration. Above all things they want
good government and if tho new
president give evidence of such de
sire he will 11 nd anions: Democrats
some of his strongest personal sup
porters.
The Tyler Courier would havo the
decision of the people in the late
election disturbed by attempted
processes in the courts. The propo
sitiou is absurd to contemplate and
when tho Courier learns that any
court will beyoud a doubt bo re
gard It it will expend its disap
pointment In some other direction
That was a most disgraceful af
fair which occurred at Atlanta on
the occasion of the Garfield memo
rial services. None but a crazy fa-
natic instigated by some ghoul in
human uharje. would be fruilty of
such conduct as the dispatches speak
of this morning. The most condign
punishment should be visited upon
the black wretches.
The "monkeying" by telegraph
operators at each end of tho line
when printers must use 'em quads
to keep their eyes open while wait-
ing for the press reports becomes
monotonous. If the key-tappers
have disputes to settle they should
resort to "close-taw" and thus stop
that eternal printing office howl of
"more copy."
m s.
It is understood in New York
and indeed given out by friends of
Mr. Arthur that Mr. Blaine having
signified his intention not to remain
in the cabinet in the event of the
president's death the portfolio of
the state department will be tender
ed ex-Secretary Hamilton Fish and
accented by him. It is also hinted
that Mr. Blaine will go abroad per-
haps as minister to England.
W. II. Vanderbilt savsithore is
. such intense loyalty such deep at
fection for our form of government
among our people that it would take
more than the loss of any one man
or any dozen men to create any dis-
turbance iu the affairs of the coun-
try.' He is satisfied Mr. Arthur will
make a wiso president and that he
will make the government one of
the whole people and not of a fac
tiou.
Chief Brady of the star-route
ring is in "Washington and asserts
he is ready aud anxious for trial.
He is mighty rich aud the Washing
ton jury that cannot be UBed to
break down the prosecution of any
rascal with plenty of money is yet
to be discovered. Brady knows
how it is and does not for a moment
doubt his honorable acquittal will
be secured.
Jay Gould when interviewed as
to the effect the death of Mr.
- Garfield might have upon the stocks
of this country ridiculed the idea
that the death of any public man
' could have any effect upon the mar-
. keU. While the president was
hanging between lifo and death the
excitemeut dependent upon the fact
may have caused fluctuations but
hu death would settle all doubts
and stocks would be more stable
than ever.
Ex-Speaker Kandall thinks the
called executive session of the sen-
ate Is evidence that Mr. Arthur is
' willing to seek counsel and advice
of the highest deliberative body in
the land. lie has perfect faith in
the wisdom and patriotism of the
sojiate and believes that the Ameri
cn people will feel easier when
General Arthur is surrounded by
the senate.' In this crisis its advice
will bo valuable and its presence at
the capital assuring. .
It is said the search after the ball
in the dead president's body lasted
two hours. The intestines were re
moved and placed in a wash bowl
so a correspondent tells and after
rain search in the body they were
taken up and thoroughly examined
and the ball was fouud clinging to
them. It is probable the whereabouts
of the ball will be sworn to after
while when they begin the move-
ment in the direction of cracking
Gu it can's neck and then the public
may vossiblv learn that tne deadly
missile was not definitely located
even in death.
MONDAY MOCRXlMf).
Fifty millions of people yester
day paid tribute to the memory of
their fallen chief. Fifty millions of
people joiued in expressions of grief
that this Union had been chastised
n the assassination of its chief offi
cer and sadly and solemnly did this
vast representation of humanity
bow their heads and bend their
knees iu deep humiliation. Minute
guns aud the muffled drum at the
head of moving columns and toll
ing bells announced the fact that the
remains of the late mightiest living
official of the western hemisphere
were being conveyed to the lowly
tomb to mould and decay aud min-
gle with the mother of all that here
hath visible life. Millions of men
and wemen and little children
joined in one great memorial tribute
to the once mighty living the now
powerless dead. Innumerable
choirs joined iu swelling
anthems to the Most High aud elo
quent tongues pictured the virtues
and were silent upon the faults of
the honored dead. There was mourn
ng from the icy shores of Alaska to
the warm surf that beats upon the
coast of Texas; from the Atlantic
to tho Pacific and the sounds of
mourniug throughout this boundless
couutry were echoed through the
civilized world. Men die at the rate
of 120000 per day but in the pres
ence of even these appalling figures
of this terrible evidence of man's
mortality the struggling millions
inhabitiug earth pay but n passing
tnought to death. Yet it is the end
of all commauding the con
sideratlon of kindred aud friends
while the multitude stands unmoved
u its pallid presence. Not so iu the
case of Mr. Garfield. He was the
prcsideut ot a great people cherish
iug their political institutions aud
the great politicul family of which
he was the temporary head joined
u inourniug his death aud iu follow
ug the course of the draped cata
falque to the tomb. While to a de
gree it wuts a personal tribute it was
more an evidence of patriotism
burning iu the hearts ot fitly mil
ions of people. Without considera
tion of party or creed they had wit-
nessed the personal head of their
great political society succumb iu
death to the assassin aud without
dissent they accepted the act as not
aone an assault upon the president
but an attempted blow at the free
discharge of the highest duties of
the government. Tho mourners ot
yesterday stood awed in the pres
ence of loug sutlering anil death
while the flush of shame tinged
thousands of cheeks at the thought
of the country's chief magistrate
having been assassinated. This is
no time to consider the causes lead
iug to the humiliating end but po-
tent causes reflected in the mind
of a base man did exist and
fouud expression in a manner
shocking to the sensibility of
every true lover of republican in-
stitutions and of popular govern
ment. The laith to-which Mr. Gar
field clung it is said with loving
tenacity teaches that divine power
shaped the ends encompassing even
the last days of the departed and
this faith teaches that we must exer
cise generosity towards all men
even toward the assassin who per
formed his part in carrying out the
decrees of Fate. This faith teaches
that Providence controls and directs
the giving and the taking of life ;
that Providence decides when
babe must be born and when the
reaper must stick in his scythe and
gather another sheaf into the gar
ners of immortality. It teaches God's
love and kindness toward meu aud
that in Ills inscrutable ways there
is a something above the power of
human understanding; that wisdom
directs all things even the assas
Bin's bullet and that man's duty is
not to murmur but. like Job. to
submit. The Christian mind can
therefore feel that there is more
prospectively of good in Mr. Gar
field's death than in his life; aud
these fifty millions of people may
turn from their mourning with the
hope that such results hang upon the'
future.
Only a single life now stands- be
tween constitutional government
aud probable legal anarchy. Recog-
nizing his responsibility for this
condition of affairs and being will-
lug to repair the error at the very
earliest moment possible the
president has called the sen-
ate to meet iu executive
session aud choose a presiding
officer who would succeed to the
presidency in case of the resigna-
tion or death of Mr. Arthur. By
law the president of the senate Is
placed first after the vice-president
in the line of succession to the
presidency and after him the
speaker of the house is entitled to
the succession. The extra session of
the senate adjourned without elect
ing a president and tho speaker of
the house is functus officio. This
state of affairs naturally produces a
feeling of anxiety heighteued by the
unexpected taking off of Mr. Gar
field and Mr. Arthur pursued the
wisest course iu immediate
ly providing for contingencies.
The mistakes of Republi-
cans have placed the organization
of the senate iu the hauds of the
Democrats and the fact should give
rise to no unkind feeling on the
part of the Republicans. Among
the Democrats of the senate there
are most distinguished patriots and
should one of these be chosen as the
country's second officer 4he act
would be creditable to the Ameri
can people. The death of President
Garfield baa apparently destroyed
all personal party strife and when
the constitutional body which meets
in Washington next month proceeds
to the election of a presiding officer
and that officer is a Democrat the
result should bo acquiesced in by
all Republicans and their course in
the premises would then be accept
ed as an earnest of the death
of malicious party strife. The
question of party should not figure
in the coming organization for it
has nothing to do with the case and
if the Republicans act wisely they
will not present an issue. The pres-
ent qualified members of the senate
have an imperative duty to perform
before they can possibly proceed to
business and it may be hoped that
all will heartily un!t1 Iti immediate
organization. The fart that a Dem
ocrat can aud should be elected
president of the senate ought to be
acquiesced in without a murmur for
fate appears to have prepureu things
for such a conclusion.
A World reporter has seen Sena
tor Ben Hill in Philadelphia. He is
remaining at the Jefferson Medical
College undergoing treatment and
will be ready to take bis Beat in the
senate ou the 10th of October. In
regard to the peuding organization
Senator Hill's views as do those of
all conservative meu coincide pre-
cisely with those of the Statesman.
Mr. Hill says:
"The senate is not a tiefr the
purposes of organization. The two
senators from New York and the
one from Rhode Island to be ap-
pointed in General Buruside's place
caunot participate in the election of
a presiding oniccr. ihey cannot De
sworn in until a presiding officer is
elected and there is an organization.
Therefore I speak of the two meu
one of which is most likely to be
chosen. What might be done after
the new senators take the oath ana
the senate is lull is auother matter.
Then it will be a tie in case David
Davis continues to vote as he did
last snriu? he will really hold the
balance of power."
Regarding the succession Mr. Hill
says :
"I certaiuly do uot expect any
thing but harmouious action at the
meeting of the senate. There will
bo every disposition to do whatever
is done as quietly and speedily as
possible and to do what is tor the
best interest of the couutry. 1 have
too miieh faith in General Arthur's
good sense to anticipate that he will
do anything calculated to arouse
sectional or factional differences
within his own party although I
believe he will be beset by more
perils thau any man who has ever
vet succeeded to the presidency by
tho death ot a president. I believe
General Arthur to be a much
broader man than he has credit for
being. My association with him in
the senate during the short time we
were there gives me reason to be
lieve that there may be a wise aud
conservative admiuistratiou from
him. I have never shared in the
opiniou that the factional bitterness
withiu the party during the past
few vears will be renewed or popu
larizcd by the new administration.''
To an iuquiry as to Mr. Conkling's
influence over Mr. Arthur he said :
"I believe that whatever influence
Air. Conkling exerts upon General
Arthur will be for the good of the
couutry. I venture the assertion
that there is no man in this land
who will have a keeuer appreciation
ot the necessities of the immediate
present and future than Mr. Conk-
ling. I do not share iu the senti-
ment that constantly assails him."
Regarding cabinet changes Mr
Vanderbilt expressed himsclt to a
reporter as follows :
. " Of course there will be changes
but it is likely they will not be at
together sweeping. Postmaster
James has proved himself to be
good man and has satisfied the busi
ness community so thoroughly that
I believe he will be retained. If
there is a new secretary of state he
will be an eastern man like Mr.
Blaine. The financial policy of the
government is fixed on a sound and
substantial basis and any interfer-
ence with it would be almost uni
versally deplored. I know of uo
fault tliat is to be found with Secre
tary Wlndom who has conscien
tiously followed out the policy of
his predecessor; but if he is re
moved I hope that some conserva-
tive sound-thinking man of busi
ness will be put in his place. But
whoever may be appointed I do
not anticipate any radical interfer
ence with our finances as they are and
Wall street will have no occasion to
howl. Somehow there is an opinion
that Wall street regulates the fi
nances of the country. This is all
wrong totally wrong. Wall street
is a great factor iu the metropolitan
system of finance but farmers in
the far west and even those be
tween Buffalo and New York do
not care a snap for it. There are
other and bigger influences than
Wall street in our financial affairs
and they know it."
Senator Jones of Nevada favors
the elevating of Mr. Bayard to the
presidency of the senate. Touch
ing the organization of tho senate
tho seualor says :
" The senate of tho United States
iu its constitutional character takes
no notice of parties. When it comes
together whether now or hereafter
it will be the duty of those duly en
titled to participate in its organiza
tion under the constitution aud the
rules of tho body to elect a compe-
tent presiding officer and such other
officers as may be necessary. That
is the nrst duty to be performed
aud one not to be avoided.
All was not harmony and broth
erly love in the Republican district
convention which met at Utica yes
terday. The anti-stalwarts elected
the presiding officer whereupon
the stalwarts seceded and elected I
set ot delegates to the state conven
tion. The Democrats of New York
enjoy all this as it foreshadows their
own victory in the next contest.

TEXAS FACTS AND FANCIES.
Corn is scarce at Brenham at sev
enty-five cents per bushel.
There are 5000000 acres of United
States lands in southern Mississippi
which can be- bought for $1.25 per
acre or they can be entered under
the homestead law on these terms
Forty acres for $6 80 acres for $7
120 acres for $14. and 160 acres for
$15.
The price of corn in Texas is be
yond reason. If the railroads will
give proper transportation facilities
it should be gotteu here at living
figures. In lowa the crop is im
niense. Eighteen counties which in
1880 yielded 60000000 bushels will
this year produce 70.000000 and the
crop will run np into millions of
bushels.
There is nothing qnite so absurd
as a hobby-horse and yet every man
has a larger or smaller one in the
family stable. One never attempts
to ride it but he makes himself ri
diculous. An illiterate preacher
who among other falsehoods be-
lieved that men are always right and
women are always wrong was wont
to declare that the five foolish vir-
gins who had no oil in their lamps
were all women while the fire wise
virgins were all men.
A negro one night at a meeting
prayed earnestly that he and his
brethren might be spared from
what he called the ".npsettin' sins."
u Brndder" said one of his friends
" you ain't got de hang of dat ar
word. It's beset tin' not upsettinV
Brudder" replied he if dat's so
it's so ; but I was pray in' de Lord
to save us from de sin of 'toxication
and if dat ain't upsettin' sin I dunno
what am."
The Shootixg ok Robespierre.
-Almost all historians of the French
revolutiou have represented the
famous wound of Robespierre as
self-inflicted. Most of Iliem stale
that the bullet aimed at bis own
lead broke the jav-boueaud thus
uade it impossible for him to speak.
M. Thiers however makes lighter
of the wound and iu his accouut of
the scene at the Hotel de Yillc says :
Robespierre drew a pistol upon
himself but the ball ttrikiug be-
neath the lip only pierced the cheek
and inflicted a severe though not a
dangerous wound." This version is
now in process of being altogether
upset by an accouut ot the circum
stances giveu in the pages ot jm
France. This journal reproduces a
deposition made by the gendarme
iledaor Merda aiterwara a colonel
in the army and a baron of the empire
and sonic other papers which sup
port the storv contained in it. The
gendarme says: "I knew the elder
Robespierre; he was Bitting In an
arm-chair that was iu the hall of
the Hotel de Ville having his el-
bows ou his knees and his head
leaning ou his lelt hand. I made a
rush at him and presenting my
sword to his hcatt said to him
Yield traitor !' He raised his head
and answered 'It is you who are a
traitor and I will have you shot.'
At these words I took oue of my
pistols in my left hand and step-
ping one pace aside fired at hiin. I
intended to hit him in the heart but
the ball struck his chin aud broke
his left jaw." This story is con-
firmed by an engraver of the period
representing Mcda in the act of dis
charging hii pistol and by the fact
tbat Mcda was shortly afterward
preseuted to the convention and
warmly complimented by the presi-
dent upon having committed this
assault.
Jay Gould Caught for Once.
Mr. L. Pine of this city ou one of
his recent trips to Cairo iu the inter
est of the Singer coinpauy took their
Chicago attorney along to see that
the titles to the property pur-
chased by Mr. Piue for the Singer
company was perfect. In the
discussiou the question of the
right of redemption came up and
one of the Cairo millionaires declar-
ed there was no redemption law iu
Illinois. The Singer attorney show
ed him the law but it had not been
euforced for twenty years. Halli-
day rushed out aud instructed his
agents to buy up all the secoud
mortgage bonds of a railway com
pany whose tirst mortgage bonds
had recently been bought by J ay
Gould. They cost Halliday $1250-
000. He telegraphed Jav Gould that
he held the second mortgage
Eapers and perhaps he (Jay Gould)
ad better call aud see him. Jay
Gould telegraphed back that as he
owned the first mortgage paper the
other did not Interest him. Hal
liday telegraphed back that Jay
Gould's attorney ought to post him
self on the Illinois redemption law.
In a short time a telegram was re-
ceived from Jay Gould that his
agent would call on Halliday. When
he came Halliday asked an advance
of $40000 over what he had paid for
the bonds. Jay Gould " kicked"
aud Halliday advanced the price
another $40000 and he proposes to
advance by forties till Jay Gould
comes to time which he will have
to do or lose his present investment.

is nearly equally divided half for

HIS LAST RKSTINU I'LACK
Lake View cemetery where Presi-
dent Garfield's remains are now
laid to rest embraces three hundred
acres ou the south Bide of Euclid ave
nues just beyoud the east limits of
Cleveland hve miles trom the busi-
ness centre of the city. On the
other side of the avenue is Wake
park aud iu close proximity the site
where the new Western Reserve uni-
versity buildings are being erected.
Nature seems to have designed this
spot for the purpose to which it has
been devoted and all which art and
money could do to enhance the nat-
ural beauties has been done. The
grounds are owned by an incorpo-
rated association of Cleveland gen-
tlemen of wealth and refinement in-
corporated uuder the law which re-
quires that all gains or profits from
the sale of lots or otherwise be ap-
propriated to the perpetual adorn-
ment and repair of the cemetery.
The land was purchased ten years
ago aud laid out by a. landscape de-
signer and engineer selected for
eminence in their profession.
Wooded bills grassy vales secluded
nooks winding drives sinuous
walks running brooks and quiet
lakes are the conspicuous land-
marks. The association adopted a
plan different from any other ceme-
tery and expressed tersely in tbe
original prospectus in the following
language:
"A feeling is growing in the pub-
lic miud that burials should be made
win-re the quiet repose of the dead
may be assured forever. The hu-
man heart clings to the grave and
its departed hopes and seeks conso-
lation iu rearing monuments and
emblems of beauty over tbe remains
of its departed loved oues. This can
be fitly done not in the tumultuous
din of cities but ainiil the quiet
verdure uuder thebroal and cheer-
ful light of heaven where harmoni-
ous and ever changing face of nature
reminds us by its resuscitating influ-
ence that to die is to live again."
With this sentiment prompting the
Clans the cemetery has become in
cauty and tasteful adornment the
rival of the most celebrated cemete-
ries of the world and has an air of
retired and restful loveliness of an
inexpressible nearness to nature and
with drawal from the world not
found elsewhere. The great object
of the association was to provide a
resting place for the departed free
from the gloom of the tomb and
from which should 'be banished
everything suggestive of awfulness
in death. No fence either iron or
wood; no chopping or curbing of
brick or stone ; no hedge wooden
trellis posts and chain or anything
to make an inclosure is permitted.
Head and footboards are prohibit-
ed ; headstones are uot allowed to
exceed fourteen inchei in height.
Thus the cemetery rather resembles
a vast well kept park with stately
shafts and modest or ornate vaults
iu lieu of statuary and structures.
President Garfield loved to stroll in
this cemetery. It was his ideal ot a
final resting place.
" You know" said Rice " how the
uegro likes 'possum " Two darkies
were riding from the field after a
hard day's plowing. They began to
talk about the good things to cat.
" T-a-k-e a good f-a-t 'possum pah
bile him put him iu ole-fashion
Dutch oviug roas' him brow'"
the other darkey's eyes rolling aud
his mouth watering as the descrip-
tion went on "sarve him up wid
c-o-o-n graby " " Shut yo' niout
yo' niggah I'll foil right off'n dis
boss."
There are 225 Indians still remain
ing in South Florida. They are
peaceful and hold friendly relations
with the white settlers. They are
the remnants of tho 'Tigers."
"Wolyes" "Snakes" and "North
Wilds " Their ehiefs are always
chosen from the "Tigers" from su
perstitious traditions. '
According to the official statistics
not a woman oyer thirty years of
age was married iu Philadelphia
during the year of grace 1880.
Isn't it a little curious that a man
will denounce marriage as a delu-
sion and yet eagerly embrace this
delusion a second time when oppor-
tunity offers ?
