Again Delivered In the face of the reluctant admissions of the surgeons that his hours were num bered, the President rallied again, and the feeling of despair that pervaded the nation has given place to one of renewed hope. The President continues to take nourishment, and, while he is yet-.in serious peril, there appears to be ampx ground for feeling that he may yet get well. The entire case hinges on the solution of the problem of restoring vitality to his system and purity to his blood. His splendid will power, too, has again stood him in good stead, and on its continued exertion much will de pend. The Pullman Car Company employs four thousand men, pays them |175.000 per month, and provides schools, gymna slums, reading rooms and churches for the employes, but no saloons will lie permitted in the town. The production of canned fruits and vegetables for the State of Maryland during the year 1870 amounted to $l,- 587,230, while in 1880, for the city of Baltimore alone, the amount was $5,- 201,268. The Chicago Tribune estimates that the land bill will add about one hundred and sixty million dollars to the value of peasant holdings in Ireland and reduce the rental of landlords from sixty million to forty million dollars. The total population of Austria- Hungary by the recent census is 37,741,- 413, or about one million larger than that of France, and two millions larger than that of Great Britain. The increase in Hungary during the decade was very small—only one ninth of 1 per cent The black list of the Western Associ ation of General Passenger and Ticket Agents contains the names of a large number of legislators, statesmen and journalists who have been detected in selling their pisses. These gentlemen deadheads are entitled thereby to the ad dition&l degree of D. B. Ii is only the burnt cork variety of the negro that the Republican North really likes when brought into direct contact with him. Up in Michigan the lot of a negro farmer is not a happy one, for Chester Dew, after being mobbed and tarred and feathered, has just been found hung, with his head split open. Call out the troops! It seems that Col. Cole is vigorously backed up in his lailroad enterprises by the people of Atlanta, who have not only brought their influence to bear on the Legislature in favor of the extraordi nary charter which he seeks, hut have sent a strong delegation to Cincinnati to induce that city to accept his hid for the lease of the Cincinnati Southern. For the first time in twentv-onc years a review of volunteers has taken place in Scotland. Queen Victoria on Thurs day reviewed 40,000 Scots in Queen’s Park, Edinburgh. Thousands of people witnessed the grand sight and cheered until they were hoarse the pipers of the old Black Watch and the seventy-first regiment of Highlanders, the pride of the north. A great change has taken place in the social position of Richard Allen, of Houston, Texas. He was one of the most prominent colored politicians m the State, and four years ago was a candi date for Lieutenant Governor on the Republican ticket. He is now charged with being concerned in the robbery of a number of graves which have recently been despoiled. A Pennsylvania millionaire doubting how to dispose of his wealth, feigned death to see how his relations would act about the estate, and he not only had a devil of a time to escape being buried alive, hut they had got his estate into probate, and they tried to put him into the insane asylum, and he had to work two years to get into his rights again. It is unnecessary to state that he has left his estate to a college. “It is gratifying to know,” says the Atlanta correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle, “that the ‘History of Gcor gia,’ by Col. I-*aac W. Avery, is meeting with great success. The specimen sub scription books are remarkably attrac tive,and show that the steel engraverccnt of eminent Georgians are to be executed in the highest style of art. The typo graphical appearance of the book is in keeping with the easy, flowing style of the author, who has written a book that will suit all classes and ire eagerly read by all lovers of Georgia’s greatness and prosperity.” Vice Presidant Arthur remained at his residence in New York Thursday, but he received no summons to go to Wash ington. Ex President Grant and ex Senator Conkiing called upon the Vice President. Grant said to a reporter: “The news to-day from Washington is not very hopeful. I have heard that Dr. Boynton has said that President Garfield cannot live.” General Graut then ex cused himself, saying that he had to go up-stairs to see ex Senator Conkiing. It seems impossible for Grant to re alize the fact that he is only a private citizen, or to divest himself of the idea that the destiny of the republic is in his hands. It would, under ail the circum stances, be much more becoming in him if he were to make himself as little con spicuous as possible in political affairs just now. The proposition for one standard of time made at the recent meeting of the Science Association at Cincinnati does not meet with popular favor. It is pro posed that all of the railway trains in the United States and Canada be run on one standard. In theory this is excel lent, but in practice it would lead to con fusion, at least for awhile. In Sau Francisco, for instance, the railway time table would be several hours apart from actual local time. It would be very pleasant to have all the clocks in Ameri ca strike twelve at the same time, but it would be “confusion worse confound ed” to have time pieces say it was twelve o'clock when in fact it was but ten o’clock. In lieu of this it was recom mended to the association to have several standards of time. New York to govern the east, St. Louis the centre, one hour later, Salt Lake the Rocky Mountain dis trict, and San Francisco the Pacific coast. But practically, for the running of trains, that is the plan now. The railroads running long lines have no difficulty in making a schedule acceptable alike to lb ■ public and themselves. The Effect of Wisdom's Financial Policy. Secretary Windont’s announcement of his intention of immediately paying s3o.* 000,000 of 5 per cents., due on October Ist. with interest to that date, produced the effect which he probably desired. It relieved the money stringency and thus enabled the stock and grain speculators to continue their several “deals" and “corners.” It also checked the decline of fancy values which commenced late last week. The Treasury should be called the “Department for the Encour agement of Slock and Produce Gam bling." It is loudly complained in con servative quarters that we are passing through a period of “over-speculation.” Now, the remedy for that popular dis ease is a collapse of speculative values, and it is always, in due time, ap plied by the disease itself, provided no powerful agency blocks the way. This latter function has evidently been as sumed by Secretary WiDdom for pur poses that arc not visible upon the sur face. Thus it is that the government interferes to prevent the application of a natural remedy to a disease that great ly need3 effective treatment If stimu lated by the powerful means at the hand of Secretary Windom, this disease of over speculation will in time demand the heroic treatment of a business panic, while now the comparatively mild remedy of a break of fancy stock values and inflated produce rates would suffice. The Secretary’s policy may be the best for himself; it is not the best for the people. The Pooling System. Mr. Albert Fink, Railroad Commis sioner, has written a letter in reply to the recent strictures of the Anti Monopoly League upon the railway pooling system, in which he maintains that no combination of railroads can in any degree prevent competition with the waterways of this country. He also holds that competition with other railroads is not prevented by the existing “pool” between the trunk lines, nor can aDy “pooling” combina tion prevent legitimate competition between the railroad companies them selves. Mr. Fink directs the special attention of those who desire to study the railroad problem to a feature pecu liar to competition between carriers. “The least change made in the tariff of one carrier,, by water or by rail, may affect the rates of transportation in far distant sections of the country without there being apparently any direct con nection between these different lines. It is this feature,” 6ays Mr. Fink, “that secures to communities distant from any water course the advantages of the com petition of the water routes, and renders combination between the railroad com panies necessary, while at the same time ft prevents these combinations from becoming a means of extorting unrea sonable and unjust charges from the public.” Colonel Peterson imreatt. Our Atlanta dispatch announces the death of Colonel Peterson Thweatt, which occurred in that city on Friday night last. The Constitutian of Suu diy says: “Colonel Thweatt was one of the landmarks of Georgia politics, and his circle of acquaintances was probably as large as that of any man in the State. He was for many years the Comptroller General of the State; indeed, he may be said to have created the office. At his suggestion the office <vas en larged, and the duties of the Comp troller increased until the depart ment reached its present prominence. The reports of Colonel Thweatt are mod els in their way—monuments of his fidel ity, industry and sagacity, ne served his State with a devotion that was most intense, and his patriotism was of an ideal kind. There is something of the pathos of a tragedy in the circumstances connected with Colonel Thwcatt’s death. He had a claim against the State which he had been vigorously pushing for several years. Of the merits of that claim, it is sufficient to say that some of the best legal minds of the State regarded it as founded in equity. It went from the Legislature to the courts, and was there decided adversely. There is no doubt that Colonel Thweatt considered himself the victim of a great wrong, and his health gradually failed after the adverse decision of the Supreme Court. He was firm in his integrity, pure in his life, and loyal to his friends. Such an epitaph as might be truthfully written over his tomb is more to be coveted than all the blazonry of fame.” Uncalled for Abase. The letter of General W. C. Wick ham, the most prominent Virginia Ite publican, announcing bis purpose to support the Democratic State ticket, has aroused the ire of the New York Times, and in a very brief editorial it manages to denounce him as a “renegade” and a “hypocrite,” and characterizes his pur pose to endeavor to resuscitate the Re publican party of Virginia after the fall election as “a piece of impudence that will be appreciated outside of the State if not within its borders, where he is better known.” This ill natured criti cism of a manly, independent expres sion comes with bad grace from a paper now engaged in supporting a ticket whose principal stock in trade is a claim for a “free ballot and a fair count.” Freedom of opinion seems not to be Em braced in the Times' vocabulary of po litical virtues as applied to the Virginia canvass. General Wickham has served the Republican party faithfully and ably without seeking reward, and, as is well known, has imparted quitQ as much re spectability to that party in Virginia as any man in the commonwealth; but be is a man of determined will, and will be a° little likely to be influenced by the Times’ abuse as he was by the attempts made to induce him to go over to the coalitionists at the Lynchburg Conven tion. Chronic l’ya-min. Dr. Robert F. Weir, a well-known New York surgeon, says that the Presi dent has chronic pya-mia or septicaemia. It began with the chills of July 23, and from that time the pus exposed to the air has decomposed and been absorbed into the system. Acute pyatmia occurs in the early stage of an injury and is almost universally fatal. Chronic pyre mia is a disease only recently recognized by the profession. There is fever with numerous abscesses in the glands and muscular tissues. The mortality is great, from 75 to 80 p-.-r cent. He thinks the President’s outlook bad, ns enough fuel cannot be put into him to run the machine oa its up-grade course. The best treatment is good air, full diet and stimulants, with early and free opening of abscesses. Pytemia was once com mon in hospitals, but Lister’s treatment, based on the fact that the discharges from a wound become poisonous on con tact with the air, has driven it away. The wound is covered by Listerism from the very start with dressings peculiarly impregnated with carbolic acid, because the acid has been found capable of de stroying all life in the g< rms that,floating in the air, cause the decomposition of the pus. Had complete antiseptic treat ment been resorted to in the beginning of the President's case, a feeling of security would have ensued, and the present complications would have been avoided. The Mormon Question. In the September number of the Inter national lUviets Mr. John Oidman dis cusses “Mormonism” from what he is pleased to style its “third side,” as dis tinguished from the views takeD of it by the two classes of writers who are ranked either among its rabid opponents or with in the body of the “Saints” themselves. He treats the subject in an unusually fair and unprejudiced way. In fact, so mild are his views concerning the man ners and customs of the followers of Joseph Smith that, by very many read ers, he would be adjudged too partial. When, however, he points out that the believers in the book of Mormon residing in Utah differ from other well disposed communities, in that a portion of them only practice polygamy, and in that, as a whole, they are far more industrious and thrifty, he becomes entitled to an attentive bear ing. It is admitted, even proved, that the book of Mormon “is a fraud,” but it is alleged that to it there can be no especial objection, in that its teachings are moral, and in that it not only does not permit of plural marriages, but, on the contrary, actually forbids them. It ap pears that polygamy was an “after thought”—the outgrowth of the gross sensuality of leaders, who bad little difficulty in persuading their followers that it, too, was a "revelation.” There is, however, a sect of Mormons not poly gamists, who call themselves Josephites, in the belief that Joseph Smith never advocated nor “revealed” that idea. The writer referred to describes in some detail the perils and hardships en dured by the Mormons in their exodus to Utah, under the leadership of Brig ham Young, and declares, somewhat exaltedly, ihat, compared with this, “the journey of Moses and the Israelites pales into insignificance.” These peo ple, he adds, were not “the ignorant masses of Europe,” but “mostly men and women of New England blood. The seed from which they sprung was planted on the shores of Massachusetts Bay, grown to maturity in a hardihood of religious obstinacy which made the accomplishment of such an undertaking possible.” It is declared that polygamy is but a weapon in the hands of both sides in the discussion of Mormonism. The church keeps hold of it mainly to court persecution, for by persecution has it flourished. It appears to Mr. Codman that time and the moral sentiment of the remainder of the great West, with those who are yet to go out there, will effect the reformation so devoutly wished for. Mormons have a most effective organiza tion. They have already settled nearly all the arable land of Utah, and they are pushing their emigration into neighbor ing Territories. This scattering of their forces admits of additional elements of opposition to their objectionable prac tices. Rather Too I’reT ature. The New York Post, in its eagerness to acquit the colored Lieutenant Flipper of the charges of embezzlement, upon which he has been arrested, does not wait to hear any denial or explanation from Flipper or his friends, but at once sets to work without even a pretense of any knowledge of the facts of the case to invent a plea of defense. It is evi dent that the editor of the Post has the phobia in the most violent form when in his zeal to establish the innocence of the accused he does not hesitate to cast im putations of fraud and dishonorable con duct upon the white officers of the garri son of Fort Davis. After publishing the statement of the case as reported in the dispatches, the Post says: “Such is the story sent out from Fort Davis, but what is Flipper’s side of the story? Is he unfamiliar with the Whit taker case? Does be not know that the prejudice in the army against colored officers is so intense that there would be nothing unnatural in ‘putting up a job’ of this kind? Did he never suspect any thing when they pretended to like and esteem him very much, and craftily made him commissary, and entrusted him with funds, well knowing that the negro race is not accustomed to com plicated pecuniary transactions, and can easily be confused about them by means of accounts, youebers and the like? When he was suddenly called upon to account, and stated that he had mailed his funds, did it never occur to him that his servant might have been bribed, and checks carefully prepared to look like those which have disappeared placed in his hands? Then the poor defenseless boy is locked up, prevented from com municating with his friends, and stories are spread abroad that his most inti mate associates of late have not been the best.” And this, too, at a distant post, surrounded by army officers who loathe him, graduates of an institution where prejudice against his race is cultivated by officers of instruct'on, and where the mutilation of negro cadets is regarded as a pleasant pastime. And this, too, in far away Texas—old slaveholding, slave driving Texas where conspiracies to massacre negroes, or rob them of the franchise, are part of the every-day life of the community. It is pretty evident, that Flipper has not ‘retained counsel.’ ” Where Gould's Hold Hoes. Borne staggering figures are given by n New Orleans journal regarding Gould’s ownership and investment in railways. The statement assumes that he still con trols the Union Pacific and Wabash sys tems, and that he has purchased, as re ported, the East Line & Red River Rail road, from Jefferson to Greenville, Tex. It also includes the mileage of the Tex a.- 4b Pacific to El Paso, of which there arc about two hundred and fifty miles yet incompleted; the unfinished lines in the New Orleans Pacific, which will be closed in October; the extensions of the Iron Mountain Road to Camden and from Knobel to the Louisiana line; the unfinished links in the Missouri Pacific from Fort Worth to Austin and from San Antonio to Laredo, all of which are being energetically pushed and will be finished soon. On this basis of calcula tion Gould’s mileage of railways foots up as follows: Texas and Pacific 1,896 Missouri Pacific 3,952 Galveston, Houston and Henderson 50 East Line and Red River 184 Wabash. Pt. Louis and Pacific (including from Danville to Vincennes and Cairo), 2,746 Union Pacific system 3,446 Total Gould mileage 11.714 It will be seen that about 2,400 miles of Gould’s lines are in Texas and 340 miles in Louisiana. The above table docs not include Gould’s Mexican line, the Mexican Oriental Interoceanic & International railroad, which will em brace 1,200 miles. Add this, and the mileage of the Gould systems is aug mented to 13,000 miles. Rating the Western Union Telegraph at $80,000,000 and the capital of the Mexican road at $50,000,000, the investments in what are known as the Gould properties are as follows; Texas aud Pacific 9 69,200.000 Missouri Pacific 160.000.000 Galveston, Houston and Henderson. 2.500,000 East Line and Red lliver 3.000,000 Wabash, Kt Louis and Pacific 93,800,000 Union Pacific 180,000,000 Western Union Telegraph 86,200,000 Mexican Oriental, etc., railroad 50,008,000 Total 9646,500,000 A Moving Cloud or Ants.—The peo pie of Emerson, Manitoba, were recently startled by an unusual phenomenon in the shape of clouds of ants flying in the air from west to east, and extending for miles around. They were apparently ordinary black ants provided with wings. During the night myriads of these in sects came to the earth, and the streets and sidewalks were literally black with them. The Ked river was also covered with a coating of the ants an inch thick. The atmosphere was exceedingly sultry and the light was considerably impaired’ so heavy were the clouds during the tim. In which the ants were passing over the town. Mrs. Mary Martin, of Harrisburg, Pa., says: “I suffered severely from a complica tion of female diseases; that sense of bear ing-down seemed as if it would kill me; my habits were very irregular- nothing seemed to benefit me until I tried Brown’s Iron Bit ters. They acted like a charm, and now I enjoy perfect health.” GUITEAU WANTS PROTECTION. lie la Fearfnl ot Violence and Aaka to Be made Hate Against Any At* tack. Guiteau, since his recent encounter with the guard. McGill, has been more quiet than before, and the jail officers have little occasion to speak to him. He seems to have an idea that he is in danger, aud has recently expressed a desire to be better protected. From both the gate and the back window of his cell he can be seen from the outside, and he appears fearful that an attack may come by way of the window. There Las been a close examination made, and it is found that from no quarter can he be reached from outside unless be puts himself in the way. With the idea of protection he has asked for iron shields or shutters for his cell. A day or two ago he asked for a rope to stretch across his cell to hang his blanket on so that it would answer the purpose of a screen. He described the rope wanted as about fifteen feet long and one quarter or one half inch thick, and stated emphatically that he did not want it to aid him in committing suicide, but solley for the purposes stated. Although perfectly composed now, it is pretty evident that if he sees any danger approaching him he would anticipate it if he had an op portunity. The guard in and about the jail remains about the same as it has for a week past. The military occupy the same posts in the building and one or two pickets ate posted outside. There is no truth in the report of Guiteau’s re moval from the jail to a United States war vessel. Col. Corkhill, United States District Attorney, is reported as saying that he is fully aware of the existence of a secret organization in Washington city whose purpose is, in the event of President Garfield's death, to break the jail and put an immediate end to the life of the assassin Guiteau. Their desire is to hang Guiteau by a slow process, and in the meantime each member of the or ganization is to be allowed to put a bul let in Guiteau’s body, taking care not to strike him in any vital point until the last possible moment. The Colonel says he has good reasons for the belief that the guards of the jail, who are all of them ex Union soldiers, know of this secret organization and are in sympathy withjt. He says that it Las been with the utmost difficulty that the warden of the jail has prevented these guards long ere this from finding some excuse to kill Guiteau. This explains the encounter between a guard and Gui teau, which took place in the latter’s cell recently. Guiteau knows the guards want to kill him, and for that reason has suffered great mental anguish since the first relapse of the President. He is so nervous that he gets little or no sleep. The Colonel says that while he believes that no torture too great can be visited on Guiteau, he must see that the law is obeyed, which protects Guiteau and secures for him a fair trial before a jury of his countrymen. He says that it would never do to go to the world that in the capital of the nation the officers of the law were unable to enforce its mandates, and were at the mercy of a mob. All that will be necessary to secure the jail from the interference of a mob will be a battery of artillery. There are now three batteries of United States artillery stationed at the arsenal in Washington, and about two hundred ami fifty marines at the nayy yard. TnOUGUTFU LNEBB IN A CRITICAL Hocr.—ln the winter of 1863-4 Hayes’ Louisiana brigade presented Msj. John W. Daniel, the Democratic nominee for Governor of Virginia, as a token of their admiration, a pair of silver spurs which cost $3,200 in the currency of the Con federacy. When he was badly wounded in the thigh in the battle of the Wilder ness the foot of his shattered limb lay upon his breast as he fell, when, with his own hands, he unbuckled one of those spurs and handed it to a friend who had taken off the other, telling him to take care of them. Expecting to fall into the hands of the enemy, he was un willing for them to capture his spurs, and they are still in his possession. He also took from his haversack the Con federate countersign, and gave it to the same friend, lest it might fall into the bands of the enemy. —Charlottesville ( Va.) Chronicle. St. aatolK (Oil.
