MAIL MATTER.
The attempted assassination of
President Onrfleld 1ms called up some
remarkable surgical reminiscences.
For Instance, Dr. L. F. May of New
York nays he "saw llaron Lnrrey,
Napoleon's great mirireon, extract n
bullet from a soldier of the Imperial
jrunrd at the Hospital of the Invalids
in 18o5. The soldier was shot hi the
ttbdomen in the region of the liver,
supposed to bo mortally, by the side
of the emperor when he seized a stand
ard and at the bridge of Lodl rallied
hia troops as they were giving way,
und thus gained the day." The doc
tor adds that "Dame Nature after
taking care of the bullet for over
twenty-five years filially brought it
safely to the surface in the lower part
of the thigh." As the battle of the
bridge of Lodl was forght In 1705
the soldier sarrled It In his body over
thirty-nine years instead of twenty
five, which makes the case still more
remarkable.

WHAT HE THINKS AltOL'T THE AT
TEMPT OS THE PRESIDENT'S LI EE.
Louisville, Ky., July 10. The
Courier Journal prints the following:
Beaugoir, Harrison County, Miss.,
July 6, 1S1 Mr. Findley S. Collins
DeurSir: I have received yours of
the 4th instant, and think you for the
kind expressions it contained. The
evil iutlunces to which you refer us
causing the bitterness felt toward
southern men, it may fairly be expected
will give way to the sober sense of the
people, if they shall, like yourself, de
tect the sordid motive for which the
stimulautsjare administered. I will
not, like the telegram you cite in re
gard to the attempted assassination of
the President, say I am thankful that
the assassin was not a southern man;
but I will say that I regret that he is
an American. A crime, black enough
in Itself, baa u deeper dye from the
mercenary motive which seems to
have prompted it. I sincerely trust
that the President may recover, and
that the startling event will arouse
the people to the consideration of a
remedy for the demoralization which
a wild hunt for office is creating.
With the best wishes for your welfare,
I am very truly yours.

A Oilauce at Guiteau.
Washington, July 12. Colonel
Corkkill says he has not visited
Guiteau this week. Bailey, his ofticial
stenographer, sees him daily; though
owing to ludispositou, he did not visit
the jail this morning. Guiteau's iu
ordinate vanity is nattered by even
this recognition. He calls Bailey his
private secretary, aud treats Cmkhill
in a most familiar manlier as an old
friend. They humor him iu these
fancies in order to keep hiui com
municative. .So fur us it has been pos
ible to verify his narratives, they have
been found strictly truthful. He is
disposed to be very talkative, aud is
very fond of having the stenographer
visit his cell. Ho continues hia bibli
cal studies, eats with a good appetite,
(sleeps well and manifests u remarka
ble indifference to his fate. Colonel
Corkhill puts no faith In Guiteau's in
sanity. He says he never saw a man
with such an accurate memory. The
day following uu iuterview he can re
peat almost every work he has said.
His photographs were shown him by
Warden Crocker yesterday. He
looked at them intently, and seemed
to be pleased, but made uo comments.
The photographs are having enor
mous sales, orders pouring iu large
quantities from all over the country.
Stenographer Bailey tells an anecdote
-which he says is characteristic of
Guiteau's callous nature. He was
speaking to the prisoner of an elevator
accident in Boston iu which a mail
was crushed to death. Guiteau looked
up from his writiug aud said in a toue
of indifference: "Don't bother me
with such stories; I am busy." No
new "cranks" have turned up to-day.
The two arrested yesterday were scut
to St. Elizabeth's insaue asylum.
Poisoned Lemonade
That it is an easy way to be poisoned
by drinking lemonade made in any
ordinary ice cooler lined with lead or
zinc, has been clearly demonstrated.
On Wednesday of last week the em
ployes of Mr. Lerue Lemer's photo
graph gallery, four gentlemen aud a
lady drank lemonade made in the
water cooler of the establishment. It
appears that the acid of lemons used
formed a coating of actetule of lead
on the inner surface of the cooler after
the beverage had all been drawn out
through the spigot. The next day,
Thursday .another cooler full of lemon
ade was made.aud the employes drank
freely of the beverage which had be
come thoroughly impregnated with
lead. In the afternoon all became
quite 111 with a sickening burning
sensation in the stomach, followed by
violent retchlngjand vomiting. The
cause was discovered and antidotes of
milk, etc., were taken and mischief
from poisoning prevented. But for
the victims having drank large
quantities of the bevrage a serious
poisoning affair might have occurred.
Houskeepers should use no other ves
sel, save a wooden bucket, or Chlnay
glass or earthern ware in which to
make lemonade.-Harrisburg F&riot.
A Few of the Lessons.
Philadelphia Sundiiy Press.
A week has passed since the assas
sin's bullet laid the President low.
It has been a period of greater strain
aiid anxiety than the nation has ever
suffered since the darkest gloom of
the war Whs dispersed by the radient
triumph of Vlcksbttrg and Gettysburg.
In the first dread hours the national
heart sank with grief and dismay.
As time vore on nud the frail thrend
of life gathered Ktrrngtli, It bounded
from deep depression to exultant
hope. Last Sunday the Republic
was bowed in sorrow und prayer.
To-day it leaps with joyful grutitude
nud with trembling but triumphant
faith. And this experience tenches
several Impressive lessons.
It teaches the unity und patriotism
of the people in great emergencies.
In the presence of this overshadow
ing peril party feeling vanished, and
t he universal thought turned to the
restoration of the President and the
safety of the country. Men forgot
party differences and parly advan
tages, and dwelt only on the common
stake of all in the preservation of the
Republic from the threatened calam
ity, lu this demonstration of the
patriotic sentiment which underlies
all political distinctions and which
consumes all partisan impulse iu the
hour of danger, we have the highest
assurance of the strength and sta
bility of our insiitutions. Under any
other system the situation would have
involved grave complications. With
a fatal blow at the President there
was but a single life between consti
tutional government and an intcrre
gum for which the law made no
piovision. Yet the people cherished
undoubtiug confidence that even if
worse came to worse the patriotic
sense of the country would be equal
to the trying occasion. And now
that we have seen this exhibition we
have higher faith in American lib
erty. It teaches the evils and dangers of
the spirit of faction. When the crisis
comes the right instincts of the people
meet its higli demands But we are
far from living always in the crisis
which stirs the grandest forces of the
popular heart. It is the ordinary life
of the nation with which we have
chiefly to deal. The exigency conies
when the evils of our common daily
methods have culminated in a flaming
outbreak and convulsed the country
with a sudden and startling peril.
What we need to do is to arrest the
vicious influences which tend to such
abnormal developments. In the hush
of such an hour we realize more than
ever the degredation of much of our
political strife und the fury of our
tactions, in the higher sentiments
which are awakened at such a time
we recognize the folly und criminality
of the contests which nppeal to the
baser passions, and see tne rocKs
toward which they are drifting us.
It teaches the necessity of lifting
our civil service to a different plane.
If faction breeds passion and frenzy,
the spoils system breeds faction. For
four months the country lias witnessed
a bitter and angry contest which lias
excited general disgust- Iu the light
of the better sentiment which the
President's danger has developed the
people see that this contest was al
together unnecessary and wholly
harmful. Thev see that it is the di
rect outgrowth of the spoils system,
the legitimate fruit of u prostituted,
civil service. This bus been empha
sized in the most startling manner I .v
the assassin's attempt to indeniify
himself with one of the factions.
Himself a disappointed olHce-seeker,
lie found the motive for his crime in
the system which makes the civil
service an eleemosynary institution
for needy politicians. With a
rational and reformed service Wash
ington would hold out no hopes and
present no attractions to such men as
Guiteau. The President would be
relieved from the importunities of
office-seekers as well as from the
danger of being assaulted by someone
of the many who are necessarily dis
appointed. If our civil service
needed another argument for its re
form it is found in the fact that in its
present shape it contains within itself
a constant source of peril to our
President.
It teaches the obligation of respect
ing the Presidential office and au
thority. The wicked and cowardly
assault upon Mr. Garfield would have
awukened the grief and excited the
wrath of the nation an any time,
irrespective of the position which lie
held. But the blow came home with
double force; it penetrated every
household iu the lund us a personal
affliction because it was the President
who was laid low. The voice of de
traction was silenced, and none too
soon. How much Guiteau had been
influenced by it, how far ho supposed
his net would find favor iu any quarter
it is idle to conjecture. It is enough
that he was by his own acknowledg
ment to some extent so influenced, to
show that those who by word or deed
detract from the authoriiy or the re
spect due to the President of the
United States may incite baser men to
deeds they little dreamed of. The
President, more than anybody or
anything else, represents the power,
dignity, and sovereignty of the whole
people. While his acts are alwavs
the proper subject of legitimate criti
cism, he should, by his position be
removed form the rancor, the viru
lence, the liusty judgment, and the
personal abuse which disgraces so
much of our inilitics. Had this iieeu
done the nation might not now be
reading to day with ureal solicitude
the periodic bulletins issued by the
I'resiuenrs anxious pnysictaus.
There are many other lessons which
this unhappy event suggests. Haj
pening at the present juncture, it
illustrates the necessity of fixing by
law the Presidential succession so
that under no possible contingency
shall there be an interregnum. It
shows that the Vice President is very
near the highest office even when the
occupant is a comparatively young
aud absolutely vigorous man, . and
that, therefore, uo less care should be
exercised In selecting the candidates
for this office than for the first place.
It shows, too, that true nobleness of
character, lurgeness or heart, and
eminent ability are recognized by the
people far and near despite of the
mist raised by factional ana party
differences. President Garfield de
served to be loved and honored by the
people of the whole country. It
needed only the hand of affliction
laid upon him to show how deep and
strong uuu genuine tins selection uau
become.

Hair Vigor,
ran r.ESTORlMG GRAY HA'.R to its
NATURAL VITALITY AND COLOR.
It is a most agreeable dressing, which
is ut once harmless and effectual, for pre
serving the hair. It restores, villi the
gluss and freshness of youth, faded or gray,
light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep
black, as may be desired. By its use thin
hair is thickened, and baldness often
though not always cured. It checks falling
of the hair immediately, aud causes a new
growth in ull cases where the glands are
not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
aud strength, and renders it pliable.
The Vioor cleanses the scalp, cures anf
prevents the formation of dandruff; and,
by its cooling, stimulating, aud soothing
properties, il heals inost-if not all of the
humors und diseases peculiar to the scalp,
keeping it cool, cleau, and soft, under
which conditions diseases of the scalp and
hair ore impossible.
As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair,
The Vigor is incomparable. It is color
less, contains neither oil nor dye, ami will
not soil white cambric. It imparts an
Agreeable aud lasting perfume, aud as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed iu its excellence.
