THE PRESIDENT DEAD.
At last we must record the long
feared news. President Garfield died
at Long Branch, Monday night, Sep
tember 19, at 10 o'clock and tbirty-five
minutes. Such was the brief telegram
we had to read yesterday morning.
From the news of the previous day all
bad began to fear that it was but a
question of time for him. But what a
grand, heroic struggle for life he made!
Who can forget it ? Who does not ad
mire it ? Never in all history
there a ruler of the people, or one in!
high authority, who bore himself soj
patiently and so humbly under afflic-j
tion. The death of James A. Garfield;
Is one of the most remarkable in all
time and must make a history full of
meaning and instruction. In the brief
space of sixteen years past he is the
second President of the United States
struck down by the assassin. What
are we to think of this in this free
country ? When the like has happen
ed in Russia, Spain or Mexico, we
have been horrified. But here we have
a second case in our own brief history.
The shooting down of President Lin
coln, in April 1865, was just after the
close of the civil war, and the deed of
the assassin was attributed to feelings
of revenge growing out of the war.
But President Garfield is shot duwn in
a time of profound peace. Truly our
fature is a matter of serious thought.
But in the language of James A. Gar
field, spoken on the occasion of the death *
of Abraham Lincoln, "God rules andj
the Government still lives."
The people mourn, but the name of|
Garfield will live in the memory of thei
people while f ree Government exists |
Philadelphia Press: "There is an|
opening for a Republican newspapers
in the capital of this State. But itsj
editor must work for his living, as oth-E
er editors do, and not depend upon
stationery steals and other pilferings
for a living.
EX-CONGRESSMAN BURLEIGH has a
pet scheme. It is to domesticate the
buffalo, which, as he argues, is a much!
better beef animal for the cold North
west than the ox, because while the
buffalo sports an ulster the ox goes
around in his shirt sleeves as it were.
He wants Congress to help him in this
matter.
THB Parker Phwnix of last week
announces that the authorities of the
Parker, Karns City and Butler Rail
road Company "have ordered their
shops at Butler to be removed to
Parker, etc." What does this mean ?
We were not aware that there were
any shops, of any great extent at this
place.
THKODOBB S. WILSON, Esa, of
Clarion, was nominated last week byg
tho Republicans of Clarion county fori
President Judge in that district. Al-1
though a Democratic district we would!
like to see our friend Wilson "pulll
through," and hope he may. He isj
fully competent for the position and
will make a strong candidate.
TUB Supreme Court of Pennsylva
nia decided that a person who has
paid part of the purchase money on
property, but who is not entitled to the
ownership nntil the entire price is paid,
has an insurable interest in the proper
ty to the extent of their own interest
therein. This rule would apply to
furniture bought on the installment
plan.
WC can all readily comprehend how
and why it was that the "Stalwarts'*
of the State Uonvention were thrown
into consternation by the third resolu
tion, introduced by Hon. Edward Mc-
Phereon into the platform as a sort of
rider to the milk-and-water one on the'
subject of the attempted assassination
of the President. It was like live
coals to a tortoise's back, to the ad
herents of Senator Cameron to have itd
said by the Convention that the Presi-fl
dent was shot down for a "conscienti-l
ous exercise of proper executive pow-a
er." It was true, nevertheless, anda
while the "friends" of the Senator whoa
stood by Mr. Conkling to the last,—wc®
may say without figure of speech to*
the bitter end—found the phrase gall to
and wormwood to their souls, they had a
the power to defeat the resolution, yetji
dared not do so lest it should contpli-T
cate matters too seriously for their can-Jj ;
didate and their own future prestige.K
The cause of political reform is not
wholly lost when its victorious adver
saries will accept such terms as this
from the vanquished. Crawford

A •'STALWARTS' 1 OPINION.
The Beaver Argus and Radical is
-one of the few Republican journals in
ithe State that may properly be classed
"stalwart," since the shooting ol
Garfield. In its issue of the
Si4th inst. it makes the following ad
imission, in reference to tbp resolution
goffered and urged in the late Republi
can State Convention by the friends of
Garfield's Administration.
•It says ;
| "Nominations for Treasurer had been
uordered, when a discussion in tiio Co:n
|mitte on Resolutions caused a halt.
sThere were two platforms before the
The one a single resolu
tion of Senator Cooper, and the other
fa more elaborate and specific gprics,
goffered by Mr. McPherson. Mr. Leed?
Sfathered Senator Cooper's and McPher
tson made his own fight. The result
|was comprorMM. Cooper's single res-
Polution was divided into two aad mfiken
gthe first and second resolutions of the
jjplatform as adopted. McPherson is
fcthe author of tbc third, fourth and fifth,
Band the last, which commends Gover-
Inor Hoyt's Administration, was
?on motion of somebody else. Thus it
that about the only Inde
pendent victory ofthe day was scored
by McPherson. It lies "especially in
the last clause of the third resolution,
namely, the declaration that the act ol
Guiteau was "an assault upon the
President for the conscientious exercise
lof proper executive power," a conces
sion which monv Stalwarts in the
Convention would not have p)itde with
their eyes open. There was a httU
breeze when the platform was brought
before the Convention, but it was over
in a moment."
Here is the remarkable admission
"that the passage of the resolution dc
'liouncing the infamous crime upon the
[President, was due to the efforts of Mr
{McPherson, the leader of tffca of
National Administration. And it;
■boasts that, "that was about the only'
■lndependent victory of the day." And (
sit says, that "tho clause of the third
[resolution, declaring the agt <jf Qijiteuu'
iwas an assault upon the President fo, j
[the conscientious exercise of proper ex-!
cutive power," was *'a concession'
which many stalwarts in the COM ven-:
tion would not have made with thuii 1 ,
eyes open." The mere fact that the
above clause is claimed a» a. "conces-'
8ion" on the part of the "Stalwarts",
should open the eyes of all good pco
plo. It reveals the real mind and feel-]
ings of the so called "Stalwarts," to.
wards President Garfield.
Very Great Rascals, Indeed.
Treasure Gilfillan is receiving a
large number of letters inquiring what
the government will pay for mutilated'
silver. These letters are from people]
who want to go into the business of
buying such silver as caunot now be|
passed in trade. The government (
buys the mutilated coin at so much for
the amount of bullion contained there-]
in. There is a suspicion that the.
same class of people who made a busi-j
jness of cutting out small pieces of silvei j
ifrom the minor coins and then passing
[them are buying in those coins at such 1
a low figure that they can sell to the]
[government at its bullion rates and
[make money. They have a scheme I
[profitable at both ends. ■
I A Negro Woman Koanfed Alive
by n Mob for Murdering Her
Children.
LITTLE ROCK, September 17. —News
has been received of a tragic affair
near Dyke's mill, Louisiana, not far
from the line of Columbia countv, Ar
kansas. A negro woman named Jane
Campbell lived in the vicinity, sup
porting herself and two children by
washing and cotton picking. The oth
er day she became angry with the chil
dren because they disobeyed her in
some trivial matter, and taking a pine
knot beat out their brains. The coroner
held an inquest over the remains, the
iury finding the children came to their
deaths from wounds caused bv a club
injthe hands of their uunatural mother.
After the verdict was announced and
the manner of the death of the two
children became generally known, a
mob, composed of blacks and whites,'
gathered, seized Mrs. Campbell, tied
ber to a stake, and despite her screams
and cries for mercy literally roasted
her alive. '

first of those summoned reached the chamber.
No other pcrs ms were in the room. Mrs.

The co!ored servanlaof Friiiioklyii Cottage were

K Amprosp Evfjrcpi Bt}rn»ide, was born*
l Vat liberty, Indiana, May 23, 1834. Jlei
'/graduated at the Militaryciidpuiy ait
West Point iu 1847. As an olHcer ol*
ithe Third Artillery he entered the Cityj
,|of Mexico in Patterson's column. 1 til
1849 he was ordered to New Mexico]
'AWith a cavalry cotpmand There he
distinguished himstjlf
iLthe Apa'he Indians. The next year
•jThe was made quartermaster ol the Mex
'k ican Boundary Commission, aud in f
wa3 promoted to a lull First Lieu-|
tenant. Having invented a breech-1
( '|;ioading rille, he resigned his conimi.s-l
f. sion in 1858, and established a mauu-|
t» lactopy of |ji> rif|cs in Mnode Island !
l iThis proving unsaccessliii, ho engaged
B f in business as Treasurer ofthe Illinois
epCentral Railroad. When the war cloud
■tbroke in 18C1 he was still in that posi
tion, while Geo. B. McClellan was the
■ IjChipf Engineer of the same company.
'Eliurnside ottered his services <to Go»-
,rernor Sprague, of Rhode Island, and
ifjWas appointed Colonel of the First
jfillegiment of Rhode Islaud Volunteers
,Caiid took part in the battle of Bull Bun
iPf'or jjis pool.negs ajid bravery he was
'treconitnended by Gen. McDowell for
promotion, aud in August, 1861, was
[appointed a Brigadier of volunteers,
ami immediately set about assisting
Mi;Gh.'Jlpp to reorganize the Army of
the Potomac. In 1802 he bad cotpmand
of the expedition of 10,000 men to cap
ture Roanoke Island. The men were
conveyed by a fleet under Goldsboro.
Thr expedition was a complete success,
and ou February gtli thu i3}§nd, \V itb
2,000 prisoners and stores, came into
jthe possession of the Uniou forces. For
.this victory the Rhode Island Legisla
ture voted Gen. Burnside a costly
'sw!»rd, and in March he was commis
sioned it Mi jor General pf volunteers.
On the 14th of the same month he cap:
tured Xewburn, North Carolina and!
Beaufort and Fort Macon soon after
.These victories greatly cheered the
ioyal heftrt of the Nation in those dark
est days of the war.
When McClellan retreated from the
James river, in 1802, Gen. Burnside
was offered to reinforce him. This he
did by occupying Fredericksburg, but
,the defeat ot con>pell(*d hi|it to
full back to Washington. When the
rebels invaded Maryland his commaudQ
was largely inci eased, and he co-oper-9
ated with McClellan, defeating theH
rebels in a hanl-fought battle at Southfl
'Mountain September 14, and followiugß
pp the light at Antietam, where heß
commanded U»e |eft wing of the armyß
with signal ability and bravery. I{el
was then placed in conimaud of theff
Ninth Army Corps and occupiedu
Leuttsville, Va., October 20, and sooul
after placed ju command of one of thel
three grand divisions of the Army oil
the Potomac. Greatly against hisn
wishes McClellan was removed, andla
after much hesitation he reluctantly ac-E
cepted the of the Array ofE
the.Potomac on the 7th of November.E l
H1 he battle of Frt dricksburg followtdS
Kon the 13 of December iu which thelf
■ Union forces sull'ered a disastrous de-3
Bleat at the hands of Gen. Lee. TheU
■last of January, 1803, be was relieved^'
■■■ I— »■!!■■ I.WIIII 1
'of the command, and the followingl
4 A pril was given command of the de-1
'partment of the Ohio. In Novemberj
he repulsed Gt a. Longstreet's attack'
on Knoxville, Teun , and on the
ing April he again took command ofi
the old Ninth Armv Corps, under Gen.l
(Irant, and participated in the cam-!
"paign on the Penniusula, until Gen.J
4l ee's surrender. His failure in plans,
to blow up a fort of Petersburg so mor I
.tifieil him that he sent his resignation
"to President Liucoln, but it was not]
'accepted, and he continued in the ser-j
vice, and finally resigned in April, IBiis.'
He was elected Governor of Rhode
Islaud the following year and re-elect
ed two years later. In 1875 he was;
selected to the United States Senate,!
jhis term expiring next March. !
fj Gen Burnside was ot Scotch de
■(sceut, his parents coming from Scotland
at the close of the century and settling
"in South Carolina, where they lived
-'for a number of years. In politics he 1
jjwas a consistent Republican and in thej
Senate was very highly esteemed byi
ihis peers for his unswerving integrity,
r'and honesty of purpose. His social
Equalities and private life were of a'
jvery pleasing and exemplary character.'

AVERSE TO TRYING HIM.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 15.—Neither
the military nor civil authorities ar»*
anxious to undertake the trial of Ser
geant Mason ol the 2d Artilary, who
shot at Guiteau. In fact, the military
authorities woqld begird to turn him
over to the civil authorities, and the
latter are equally anxious to have the
military deal with him.
In speaking to the jail guard on duty
jn his corridor Guiteau said last night:
'I don't tear these attacks that people?
ore providing for me, God will protect!
,me and save me from any injury fromj
any ol them.' ,
Then geting in the inquisitive mood,!
he asked,' What do you think will bej
done with me.' 1
The guard answered, 'My own opin-5
ion is that you will be killed by somej
one, whether the I'resideut die? or
not.' I
Guiteau's only remark was, 'I hope]
not.' f
