U V. MOIlTIIIMI'.ll, KDlTDIt i.K.mauToN. pa. 8ATURIMY, JULY Iff, 1881. OFCICIAIi (',VVKI)KAii:. The controversy which lias been going on between the two faction of the Republican ' irty continues, bttt lint with the bitterness that characterised it previous to the lain mur.lerons assault cm the l'rcsiilent. This trouble gww out of differences which existed long prior to the election, or even beforo 0n. Garfield's nomination wns thought of. It bad Ita inception in foisting upon the peo ple A fraudu'ent A Iniinlstratlon.wlioiO head refused to properly recognize the services of tbo men who had been Instrumental in placing him in a position, which a clear ma- jotlty of the people at the polls had said should bo occupied by another, Hayes by the rankest Iraud was made President, to pave the way f.tr the return of Gen. Grant to the White Ilouse, but ho fulled to lorry out the withes of the men who bad made him what he was and Gen. Garfield was so fortunate as to secure the prize. Naturally Gen. Garfield could not fratcrnlzo with tbe men whose candidate for President, first.lasl aud all the time, is Grant. The rei eon for this is plain. Gen. Garfield is an ambitious man, with as keen a desire to be bis own successor, as wa ever possessed byany of his predecessors, anil to yield np to the Grant wing of the party, a -vast amount of official patronage would be equivalent to signing a q,uit claim deed of the position ho has been elected to occuiy for four years, and which he hope to be able to occupy for fouryears more, alter bn present term expires. A politician without patronage is power lias. We see tills clearly illustrated in tin- present position of ex-Senator Conkllng- With magnificent abilities and a personality that hud until recently commanded the ut most deference and carried everything before It, this once powerful leader of the Republi can paify, whofo word was law and whose every wish wis carefully consulted, is now almost xv thout a following. While he couln command place and power for politicians they followed fawningly at his heels onl io i willing to do his bidding. Garfield and tb coterie that Eurrounda him are trained politicians, who understand the potent pow or of pntionagend looking after the loave sikI lubes of tbe future, as to the fat eusten ance of the- present, readily taw the way to mtik their most powerful opponent an'un important factor in the Khtlcal pioblem Their success in demolishing Conkling. hat been greater than they had anticipated and they owe it moro particularly to the fact thai the great New Yorker, ith unl o inded faith in himself, bad failed to appreciate tbat il wus not his mental abilities that won him support, but the lucrativo positions he was. able to procure tor his political friends. 1110 -oreau ntm butter brigade" is one hundrod thousand Etron.nnd it can alwayr be fouud marshaled on the side of the men who control tbo fruitful fields from which they derive their living. While Gen. Gar Hold is able to control the patronage of the Government it will be found sustaining him: but when the opposing faction of the party succeed in getting their innlnga they will And in these facile office holders equally zealous supporters. TH E FUND FOIl JU US. CJ.l ItFI CI.D The spectaclo of raising a fund for th. talent of Mrs. Garfield, is not an edifyinp o ir. There is no reason why $250,000 or any other amaunt of money, should bo sub scribed for her. She is not in wants he: husband, who is in possession o( a mmlcr.it competence, ouUido of tho handsomo salary his position affords, is likely to live many years, and thero is every probability that with his usual frugal ma-uagement, lie will be able to live in becoming style, educate his children in a becoming manner, and lay by a handsome sum of.moni y to be add .ed. to bis private fortune when heleavis the White House. Therefore there is no good reason why Mr. Cyrus W. Field should axk contributions from the rich men oi thi: country on behalf of Mrs. Garfield. , It eannot be said that these money testi inonials to distinguished public men occu pying hfgh official positions, in which thty nave the disposal of many lucrative offices, have a tendency to strengthen public trior aU If Gen. Gaifield should live, be will nut stand in need ot the money, and no one should wish to see tho President put under the obligations to the priucipal subscribers to the fund, which the acceptance of the fund would create. We had a specimen of this thing during the Grant regime, and it would not be conducivo to our national prosperity and to tbe proper administration ofpublio affairs, to bavo it repeated. Let Mr. Field and his rich friends wait until there shall be some necessity for financia aid from them. co.ti:.ui'i,,ti.c; a. crisis. The London (15ng.) roll Mall Gazette Monday evening, in a' leading article, head ed"The Nearness of a Financial Crisis in the United tilates," argues that tbe stability ol the New York money maiket depends up on its power to continue drawing gold from Europe. An excess of exports over imports is uot necessarily a sign of wealth. ,A nation that always exports mora goods than it im port It nearly always a debtor nation, and its excess of imports is needed to pay its debt. Whether the process of expansion by Jmiuage Jrom Europe, which within the past two years has added 65,000,000 to the circulation of the Union, is to goon depends upon tbe ability of Ameiica to control with itej ptod'uee the markets of Europe. The in dications are that tbe European harvests will be bountiful, and that the United States wjll have to faco grest competition, proba. bly at very low prices. With an overwhelm ing surplus yield they might bo able to do this ; but shobld their surplus be as many allege, comparatively small, tho difficulties of their trade may well become serious. The article conoludes as follows i "We think the petition of the United States Is not any, thing like so serious as the more sanguine Americans assumes. They are just in the circumttanees where a financial crisis might develop with extraordinary rapidity. Some look for such a frisis In the coming autumn, put are by no means certain that it will do velop itself then, even should things come to the wont. With their trade the ereillt bubbles may go on swelling for months be yond the time when cautious men look for trouble. Holders of United State securities, however, must lay their account for serious financial difficulties much sooner thau the contemplation of the wonderful progress of tbe past three years might lead tbem to xpecw" If Col. Riddleberger, of Virginia, had visited Harrisburg to consult with Don Cameron one week before tbe shooting of the President Instead of one week after tbat sad occurrence;, the advice given the Vir ginia Keadjutter would doubtless have been of a very different character from tbat giv n, him (V few days ago. This was that ut. 4tr th circuuuUucts it was not only uss lets for Mahnne to continue tbo struggle for Rlctdlcberger, but tbat to do so must result In positive Injury to the Republican party) that Jvlth '.lio Be pa to constituted as it now Is tbo best thing to do was for the Re ubll- cans to put forward for Bergcant-at-Arms ft soldier, one who had dlst(ngushed himself during tho tate rebellion one who, liko Gcn.Beaver,nfPennsylvaula,or Gen. Noycs, of Ohio, had lost a leg In battle. Cameron further told Rlddicberger that, with the Picsldciit lying on tho threshold of tbe grave ho bad no heart to discuss politics further than to say "that, with tbe shadow of death hanging over tbe Executive, this was a time to heal political differences and animosities, and not to create them." Tho Democratic State Convention ol Ohio met on Wednesday, in Columbus, and chose Gen. Thos. E. Powell, of Pelawnro county, for permanent chairman. Resolu tions were adopted declaring, among other things, for tho maintenance of the common school system; against monopolies and the contract system in the State prisons; for non-partisan management of the charitable and punitive institutions of the State, and civil service rotorm generally; against sump tuary legislation; for tho regulation of rail road charges, and tbe sppolntmeut of a ta riff commission. A resolution was also adopted denouncing the crime of tbe assas sin Guiteau, and expressing sympathy with the President and his family, and hope fur his speedy recovery. John W. Bookwalter was nominated for Governor on the second ballot. Who Saw it First ? The question of who discovered the present comet has become a most momcutous one. Over 500 persons have laid claim to the honor and the War ner Prize of $200, and all of them are within comparatively tho same time. It is desirable tbat no injustice be done in tbls matter,and lotbisend all parties who saw the comet during tbe week ending June 25th, or pre viously, will please forward their claims without delay to Prof. Swift, Director of the Warner Observatory, Rochester, N. Y. It is certain the discovery was made by a private individual, but who tbat individual is re mains to be seen. . NEWY0RK. rcou our nroi;i,AncoEnr.srosnKNT. Nkw Yokic, July 11, 1881. Excepting in the shopping centres and during shopping hours, the city just now wears a sadly deserted look. Everybody who is anybody went out of town on tbe 4th, and has remained away apparently, for even tho church bells do not call out anything liko the customary crowd. That some onc-still remains In town is proved by the numbers reported on warm days at Coney Island, and tho activity still to be teen in tho stores. The mystery is where tbey keep themselves, for all of lashionable Now York viewed from the exterior of thousands of hermetically sealed up homes is no't est. However, this seems to be one of the humbugs of fashionable life, "no fel low can qullo find out." I daro say tbat half of these out-ol-tmvners are enjoying Charles Lamb's paradise a fan, a novel, a soft couch and a glass of lemonade on a shady back porch, or in a retired arbor no neighbor's prying eyes can reach. And wise are they to do It, for Newport and Sar atoga as "permanencies" are not quito all one's fancy paints them. Talking of fans and novels, the only sea sonable things at present, there are several new "crinkles" in each. I enjoyed a 1 ear ty laugh "walking down Bioadway" the other morning, to sco the rcsthelic "bull purp," which has almost bad its day, as an appendago to tho carnages of tho demi monde, and as a pet and follower of the "too to utter" young Pady of the period, or as a china monstrosity in the parlors of the would-bo artistic -raised to the dignity of serving as a device for a fan. You cannot imagine bow ludicrous it looked to meet group alter group of serious and intense looking females, all brandishing on the fashionable long stick a lifo-sizo head in colors of the most hideous of bull-bogs. My curiosity led me to Investigate tho matter at once, and I found these unique fans were the clever advettisetnont ot Messrs. Lord & Taylor, which thoy were giving away to every purchaser of a paper of pins or a thousand dollar costume, Further inquiry disclosed to me that they had taken the precaution to copyright their special "dog," so you see this dog's day promises to be larger than that of the average dog. A long and very warm week discovered little that was new in the way of styles. There is a charming thing out In tho way of bonnets that is just perfect for the coun try or seashore a shirred tulle poke, trim' med with Spanish lace, and with clusters of dull-red poppies, or half-blowu roses low on tho left side. White mull, embroidered with polka dots, is mado up into long scarfs and worn in various ways; the scarf is between two and three yards long and a half yaid wide, and scalloped on the edges. Mother-of- pearl beet buckles are reversed and the most popular garment for wearing with silk skirts in the morning is an e'eru pan gee shooting jacket, with embroidery of the sama shade, done on tho Byron collar, the rolling cuffs and wide belt. There is a decided stagnation just now, as usual m fashions. What wo should get and how wo should have It made, wo are all thanking Heaven, was settled and off our minds beforo this bat spell came on. I think tbe best thing I cat) do is to tell the fortunate ones who have hammocks swung under shady trees, or in cool piazzas, or bid away iu retired city back-yards, tbo names of some of the newest and best of the many novels published this summer. Have you read "The Matter-of-Fact Girl," a lovely English novel by Theo. Gift, or "Manuda Paredes," tho sensation of the season, whose author religiously preserves his incognita Tbat tho author is of the male gender, I will tell you in confidence, and Ifcyou will not let it go any further that he is a young doctor of this city. It is really amusing how certain the critics were that a woman had. written the book. But the fair sex have bad a real triumph In "A Nameless Nobleman," the novel of the season, wbicli it has been proyed beyond a doubt was written by Mrs. Jane G. Aus tin, the author of "Mrs. Beauchamp Brown.' There has not been a dissenting voice re ganling its merits and its fascination. It is one of those pure and healthy stories, whose charm does not end with the last page, but leayes a spell behind it, the read er seeks In vain to cast off; the lovers be' came his dearest friends, and the scenes In which they have moved, become as much a part of his life, as if a portion of bis own experience. "Tbe Nameless Nobleman was a noble Frenchman, one Francois Baron, whoso descendants still exist in New England, one of whom is tbe author, Mrs, Austin, and whose body rests In tbe Old Hill burying ground at Plymouth. Tb - . aUry is one of exceptional life and devo- ! lion to an exceptional woman and is told - with rare delicacy and grace. The novel somewhat took the critics by storm. It was announced as the initial volume of a new series "Tbo Round-Robin Series," project ed by tho Messrs. James R. Osgood & Co., of Boston. Now you know tire series busi ness has almost been done to death, and there was nut much confidouco in another anonymous series, taking in almost exclu sively American authors. The legend was not re-assuring cither) we were afraid "Perhaps it may turn out" a fizzle, as likely us anything else. Hut be ginning with "The Nameless Nobleman," and following with "A Lesson in Love" and "The Georgians," tho the publishers have had the good fortune to place in the bands of novel readers, the three most successful novels of tbe season. "A Lesson in Love" has been attributed In several of our most prominent writers. First to Henry James, Jr., then to Edgar Fawcett, then to Miss Sprague, who wrote that sprightly novel "An earnest Triller," and laktly-toMr. Bishop.tho author of "Deb mold." It is difficult for the must discrim inating critic, to say who did wrlto it, as it partakes of tbe licit qualities of all these writers. It is a lesson of modern society in New York, and has in John Truax.tho hero, and tbe charming heroines, Kate Warring ton and Dons Gordon some of the finest character painting I have found in any re cent novel. "The Georgians" Is a slrauge and tragic story of the South, stilt bitter and prejudiced through the late war. Tbo 6tory, howeyer, is not a sectional one, the author only shows tbe best and most attractive side, in the hero, a strong and noble character, u some whimsical types. It Is noticeable what a growing interest all things Russian re to readers and writers at present. This leaning is also discovered in "The Georgi- ' the heroine, being a fair Russian Countess with a mysterious history. In recommending any of these novels for the happy leisure moments of the summer 1 must not overlook Mrs. Burnett's "Fair Barbarian," which still floats ou tbe high waves of popularity. I doubt not, that there will bo many protctypes of saucy "Octavla Basse U" with her frills and diamonds, to be seen at Saratoga in tbe heighth of the sea son. M. WASHINGTON. OUR SrSCIAI. LETTER. Washington, D. C, July 9, 1881. About twenty minutes after nine o'clock ust one week to day, the people on Penn sylvania aveuuo wero startled by the eight fa team of powerful horses driyen at full speed toward tho White House. The first mpressian was that it was a runaway, but as the team swept by tho fact tbat it was a War Department covered wagon and tbo driver of grim and soldierly bearing, sat urging the horses to a still higher speed, was a puzzle to everybody. The ayenue was thronged with vehicles and the soldier driver thundering olong on tho dead run waved them aside, while tbe people on the walks closed rapidly in behind with mut tered comment and looks of astonishment. The impression prevailed that tbo driver was drunk, but those who saw tbe man's grim look knew that bo was on some great purpose. "You are wrong," said my com panion to one of these cursing commenta tors. "Something great has happened or is going to happen." A few minutes previous President Garfield ulighted from his car riage to take tho cars for the North. Sec retary Hunt and Mrs. Hunt, Secretary Wludom and Mrs. Window, Postmaster General James aud the. rest of the party had taken their scats iu tho car. Colonel Jamison, of the Post Office Department, who was to have charge of the transporta tion of tbe party, was standing at tbo gate leading to tho cars. He heard a shot, quickly followed by another. There was a rush to the ladies' room, from whence the sounds came. President Garfield was found lying on the floor, having fallen to the left. Secretary Blaine came out of tbe room following a man and calling: 'Rock well I where is Rockwell I" Tbe mnn was seized by Officers Kearney and Parks, tho depot policemen. Tho President was taken up'stairs. Dr. Bliss arrived soon afterward;, It was soon discovered that both shots had taken effect. One struck him in the right arm, below the shoulder, the other went in ot tho right sido of the back, between tbe hip and kidney. It then passed forwaid and went into tbe groin. It was probed for but could not be found. Tho shooting oc curred when the President and Secretary Blaine were walking arm in arm through the ladies' room. Secretary Blaine was not going with tbo party, but came down to bid the President good-bye. Ho said : The President and I were watking arm-in arm towards the train. I heard two shots and aw a man run. I started after him, but saw that ho was grabbed. As ho got out of the room I came to tho President, and found hi m lying on the floor. When Guiteau had fired his second shot and made for the B street entrance of tbe depot where hack 19-1 waited, he found his plan of es cape wouldn't work. Depot Policeman Parks sprang between him and the exit and tbe assassin turned the other way. Hero be was confronted by Officer Kearney, and both officers seized bim at nuce. As they dragged him through the crowd he flour ished a sealed letter in one hand, and shouted in a highly dramatic manners 'Arthur Is President ot the United States now, I am a stalwart. This letter will tell you everything. I want you to take it to General Sherman." He was deprived o bis pistol on arrest. It is an ugly looking weapon, of what is known as tho five-bar reled British bull dog pattern, of U calibre, with a white bone handle, and had three loads undischarged. He did not throw It away, but flourished it in bis band when he ran, everybody about the waiting room dodging from In front of it without regard to appearauocs, I have just returned from the White House this morning and learned tbat all through the night the President's condition was improving as rapidly as could be ex pected, and the morning examination de veloped such a condition of affairs. The reduction of the pulse rate, temperature and respiration was a little more than that mado on Wednesday night. There was no increase of fever, and no unfavorable devel opnieutof any kind. The morning exarai nation revealed the fact tbat suppuration was already established. Pus matter bad begun to come, in very small quantities, from the wounds. This tbo physicisus bailed as au encouraging sign, Such an is sue was expected, and its character was such that no danger need be apprehended therefrom. Its progress can bo fully con trolled, and, if no accompanying complies lions work contrary to tbe doctors belief, will only work good to tbe patient. The confidence of tbe attending physl cisns is growing stronger with every hour, His progress towards convalescence is ne cessarily slow, but as long as It leads In that direction, there is reason for a constantly ic creasing faith in bis recovery. Every day gained without any unfavorable reaction is a great gsin. Tbe upward tendency tho President' pulse aud temperature jes terdny is the natural result of the establish ment of suppuration from hla wound. It is not regarded with anxiety. Tbe case, con tinues encouraging let the people rejoice as those with great hope. AtrousT. For tho Carbon Advocate. NTOOPIIN-H TO CONQTJEITt The duties of life are more than llio it' self. To lire comprehends tar more than the mere eating, drinking aud sleeping of every day existence-. Gifted as man Is, Ith an active, inquiring mind, endewed ith intellectual and moral powers; with a heart sensitive and alito to pleasure and sorrow) with an immortal soul and after destiny; tbe ends and alms of his existence should certainly be as lofty as the skies and far above tho little plans and schemes f life and enjoyment. Human nature has been tho tame in all ages. Generation after generation has felt as ne now feel, and thel; llyee were as active as our own. Through out this wide dominion of nature all are happy, all In their nature save only man; e alone is a stranger to absolute content Tho aspirations of this life are a proof thut man is less contented here below than the brute. History is philosophy teaching by samples. It presents to tho magic mirror on which, by looking at tho past, we may discern the future. Scanning its pictures we learn of those who lived prior to us, who had launched out into tbe wide world, nne with the idea oi seeking fortune, oth ers inspired with tho love of fame, and eager to sway tbo sceptre over mankind, and some to achieve great aud noblerdeeds. But how manyclinibed the steep and rug ged "hill of fame," aud reached the sum. mit without one stain of reproach, without some blemish upon their character 1 Fowl Few they are who haye reached that height, and can look forward with rapturous antic ipation "to the never-falling glory attained only in the presenco of the Most High." Many a proud and robust youth has gone forth from his paternal roof, bearing the banner of strange devise Excelsior," with a flush of exultation he treads upon the base; days, months and years rapidly glide by, time has changed his grey locks tu silver; his departure is near at hand, and o has made but little progress in tbe as cent; and as he casts a longing eye up the steep and rugged hill, and sees the far dis tant shining goal, the object of his life-long aspirations, sighing ho gives it up in de spair and flings away main ambition. II s true that many haye won fame and emi nence. we read and glory iu their noble achievements; they bavo successfully bat tled the storms of adversity; we nro eagerly anticipating their criterion, when a sudden cloud envelopes them and they are heard of no more. It reminds us of the brilliant rays of a fine mid-summer's evening. As it were, tbe whole heavens are ablaze, which suddenly fades away in the western hori zon. They wero within grasp of tho goal, but in the eleyenth hour, stooping to con quer, fell. Whatever may bo the temporary applause of men, or the expressions, it may be asserted, without fear of contradiction that no truo and permanent fame can be founded, except in labors which promote the happiness of mankind. 'E'en though scorns malignant glances Prove htm noorest Lf his clAn. He is the nobler who advances Freedom and the cause of man." Honorable and noble conquest consists, not in tbo ambition for subduing men into slaves, but the holy ambition of elevating them into peers, not for usurping principal! ties or kingdoms, nor merely for gathering renown as it were, star by star, to be woven nto a glittering robo for his person or to making a crown of glory for bis bead j but. to expand nis own soui in grander -prupor- tions, to give it angelic andarchangeliclofti ness ot statute,and to fill it perpetually with that song of joy which even tho morning stars could not but sing, when they beheld the splendor of tbe God, head reflected from the new creation. Life is n continued bat tie in which defeat is suffered more than victory is won, the young and ambitious ure inspired with the idea that to conquer, they have but to reach out their hand and pluck the fruit, that, like the apples of Hepinedes, I only to be sained alter the highest endur ance and the most patient perseverence They caluminate their good qualities, iu order that they may sink and rise in est! mation of the world. They bow down be fore tbe shrino of idols and grovel in the dust. Tbey would sacrifice the characters of their dearest friends. Yea, even hurl the Almighty God Himself from His high throne, if it would tend to their own eleva tion. It is right that man should strive to rieo and ennoble himself, but the path of a true conqueror lies notover wound ed and slaughtered millions, over the putri fylng heaps of his fellow creatures, over ravaged fields,smoklngruins,pillaged cities, His steps leave uot behind foot-prints of be reaved friendships end despairing love. He has only conquered that which has lived true to tho noblest capacities of his being and in obedience to tbe highest law of his nature. It is by far nobler "to take arms against a sea of trouble than to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.' Nations may cherish tbo memory of those who led hundreds of thousands of mighty cohorts over far distant desert lands, through fields of carnage, where ne'er before tbe lights of civilization had shane;of those who clothed tbe world in sackcloth and ashes, and wept because there wero no more lands to conquer tbey may still eyen rever ence their poens of departed glory, songs of chiyalry and triumphs in war. Egypt still lulls In tbe lost art by which her Rhodian monster obelisk rose. The relics of tho past. The shatterrt colomnof the crumbled arehes. ily moss and Ivy groninic green and fast Hurled Into fragments by the tempest blast, still foidly clings to the memory of the remnants of thoso one mighty Greeks and Romans. But to him who standeth on the apex of earthly glory" and with uplifted hands can say, I have conquered, I have withstood all powers of the universe which would sever me from the aauso of freedtm and right. I have always reposed an un faltering trust in God in the darkest hour, and was eyer ready to be offered up on lb altar of my country and of mankind. To such let all nations unite in paying homage, Illustrious man I Let learning and genius and power unite In raising thy temples. When we speak of earthly glory thou stand est at the head. Compared with thine, th glory of kings, is but a vulgar glory. Every age produces a multitude of kings, but ages pass away without conferring tby fame on an individual of the human race. H. D.
