The Duty of the Hour.
We heartily endorse the wisdom and
good sense of the following front the
Philadelphia Press of Tuesday. Presi
dent Arthur deserves the confidence and
support of the people. If he proves him
self unworthy,it will then be time to con
demn or censure. Let us hope lie may
take up the administration where the la
mented Garfield left it, and pursue the
same wise policy which his predecessor
had mapped out. If he does, all will go
well. lie will be honored, the country
will prosper and the Republican party
strengthened:
We have lost James A. Garfield, but
we have still a President. Chester A.
Arthur is now President Arthur and it is
the plain duty of all good citizen to give
him their well wishes and support. lie
enters upon the duties of his office under
circumstances so painful and peculiar
that every step must be attended with
embarrassment and difficulty unless the
people recognize their duty and give him
the assistance of a generous confidence.
His course since the fatal day on which
the late President was strhek down has
been such as to command the admiratio
of even his enemies. An ordinary sense
of justice will suggest to fair-minded men
of every party and faction to suspend
judgment until they have son ething to
judge. The same votes that made Gar
field President made Arthur his legitimate
successor and he should be made to feel
that he has the same constituency behind
him readv to hold up his hands and
strengthen his purpose.
UnfuAorablc reports of the President's
condition have heretofore been attended
by fluctuations in the stock market. It is
therefore probable that the news of to
day will operate sufficiently on the fears
of the credulous to cause more or less of
a decline in stock quotations. As there
is no reason for this at all the market
will speedily recover. The death of Pres
ident Garfield will bring grief and disap
pointment to every household in the land
but it can in no way affect the material
interests of the country. Everything
will continue to move on as smootldy as
b •('< re. There will be as much to sell
a d as many to buy to-day as yesterday.
The business of the country does not
hinge on the life or death of any one man.
Congress can affect it, but the President
in this respect can directly do but little.
The Secretary of the Treasury is the re
pository of whatever power tin; Adminis
tration possesses over the course of bus
iness, and there is no reason to apprehend
any change in the present Treasury poli
cy. While we deplore the occasion
which has called General Arthur to the
Presidency, there is no occasion for
alarm in business or for distrust of the
new President. While the nation
mourns her loss she can still look for
ward with unabated confidence to her
future.
A justiec-of-the-peace down in Schuyl
kill county, has been distinguishing him
self. He keeps a tavern in the same
building as his temple ol justice, no doubt
arguing, and with reason, that the two
businesses are not incomputable, since
the one furnishes him with "cases" for
the other. One day recently an old cus
tomer applied to him in his character as
u tavern-keeper, for a drink on credit.
He refused to give it, whereupon the in
sulted would-be drinker denounced him
as a mean man. The tavern keeper, as
such, made no response to this abuse but
but having metamorposed himimself into
a iustice-of-the-peace he issued a warrant
for the arrest of his indignant customer,
and committed him to jailf or "contempt."
Everybody in the neighborhood has now
committed the same offence, and the
whole town is liable to arrest.
"Individuals may wear for a time the
glory of our institutions, but they carry
it not to the grave with them Like
raindrops from heaven, They may pass
through the circle of the shining bow and
add to its lustre, but when ihey have
sunk in the earth again the proud arch
still spans the sky and shines gloriously

THE AUTOPSY.
The Surgeons Ffereivetf !
The Ball Passes through the Spinal Column
The Supposed Track an Abscess-
No Abscesses Found on the Lungs
—Death Was Inevitable.
Elijkkon, Sept. 20.—The following
official bulletin was prepared at eleven
o'clock to night, by the surgeons who
have been in attendance on the late
President:
By prev ions arrangement a post mortem
examination of the body of President
Gat field was made this afternoon, in the
presence nad with the assistance of Drs.
Hamilton, Agnevv, Bliss, Barnes, Wood
ward, Reybtirn, Andrew 11. Smith, of
Elboron, and Acting Assistant Surgeon
D. S. Lamb, of the Army Medical Museum,
Washington. The operation was per
formed by Dr. Lamb.
Till: KALI..
It was found that the ball, after frac
turing the right eleventh rib, had passed
through the spinal canal;, fracturing the
body of the first lumbar vertebra:, driving
a number of small fragments of bone into
the adjacent soft parts, and lodging just
below the pancreas about two inches and
a half to the left of the spine and behind
the peritoneum, where it had become
completely encysted.
TUB I.MAI KOI \ri: CAI'SL OF Di'.ATII
was a secondary hemorrhage from one of
the mesenteric arteries adjoining the
t rack of the ball, the blood rupturing the
peritoneum and nearly a pint escaping in
to the abdominal cavity. This hemor
rhage is believed to have been the cause
ot the severe pain in the lower part of
the chest complained of jtist before!
death.
AN AKS< i:ss CAM I V
six inches by lour in dimensions, was!
found in the vicinity of the gall and blad-!
dor between the fiver and transverse co
lon,which were strongly interadherenc.
It did not involve the substance of ihe
liver and no communication was found
between it and the wound. The long
suppurated channel extended from the
external wound between Hie light groin.
This channel, now known to he due to
the burrowing of pus from the wound,
was supposed during life to have been
the t rack of the ball.
On the examination of the organs of
the chest, evidence of severe bronehitcs
were found on both sides with broncho
pneumonia of the lower portion of the
right lung and though to a much less
extent, of the left.
TIIIC LUNGS CONTAIN NO ABSCKSSKS
and the heart no clots. The liver was
enlarged and fatty, but free from abscess
es, nor were any found in any other or
gan except the left kidney, which con
tained near its surface a small absciss
about a third of an inch in diameter. In
reviewing the history of the case in con
nection with the autopsy, it Is quite evi
dent that the different suppurating sur
faces and especially the fractured spongy
tissue of the vertebrae,furnish a sufficient
explanation of the septic condition which
existed.
