stricken by disease and twice by the hand
of an assassin.

traiu bearing the remains of the lamented
President. The cortege reached Wash
ington at 1 :3.J.

dent, is also in his fifty-first year—a cu-1
rious coincidence.

"This day will be sadly memorial so
! long as this natiou shall endure, which
| God grant may be till the last syllable of
I recorded time, when the volume of hu
man history shall be sealed up and deliv

A. Garfield on the first anniversary of the
d?ath of President Lincoln.
Governor Pillsbury, of Minnesota is in
a curious predicament. lie wishes to re
tire from public life, and his supporters
won't allow him to. He published a card
saying he is not a candidate for renomi
nation, and means what he says, but the
Republican newspapers coolly inform the
public that he is not the person to decide
the question, that the State needs his
services, and that the thing to do is to
pay no attention to his wishes, but re
nominate hiui aud reelect him. It looks
as if the Governor would have to submit.
He is suffering the penalty of being a
good and faithful office.
