THE SUCCESSION.
WHAT SHOULD MR. ARTHUR DO
UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES.
The Rumor* end Incident* of the Presidential Compli
cation???When Does the President Beoome Consti
tutionally Unable to Perform His Duties???The ???
Difficulties of the Vice-Prcsidency.
New You, September 0.???In view of the
still critical condition of the president, the
following will be of interest ns presaging the
course of General Arthur.should circumstances
scat him in the presidential chair:
Aheut a week ago when General Garfield's
death was hourly expected. General Arthur
sent for an ex-editor and politician of thisstatc,
long since retired from active service, hut
whose name is as familiar asa household word
in |iolirical circles for half a century. With
this gentleman, who has long been his ]>oliti-
cal mentor, lie counseled as to his proper
course should lie lie called to Washington by
the death of the president. After due ilclili-
crution he determined, should the members
of the cabinet tender their resignation, to re
turn them with the ropiest that they retain
their portfolios. It was thought that all of
the present cabinet, with possibly the exifjt-
tion of Secretary Blaine, would lie willing t<
do.this. In the event of his determining to
request that his resignation he accepted, Gen.
Arthur was to offer the secretaryship of stale
to Mr. Frelingiiuysen, of New Jersey.
It was thought that this action on the part
of General Arthur would bring to his support
the conservatives and the great mass of tin 1
republican party, as well as the business men
of all parties, who it is known arc extremely
adverse to any politieal changes or quarrels
that torn! to unsettle mercantile matters,
though it would cause him to lie denounced
by many of his warmest supporters, some
whom have urged him to go to Washington
and declare that, as President Garfield is dear
ly unable to perform the duties, the constitu
tional inability exists, and the otliee is his by
right. General Arthur turned a deaf ear ti
tills advice, and will wait the logic of events.
WHAT Mlt. KVAKTS SAYS.
Upon the subject of presidential inability
Mr. Kvarts said he had thought somewhat
and lie had watehed the course of the discus
sion ill tile neWspa|HTS. He thought that it
was u question on which the people should
have no dilierenees. It would best he left, he
thought, until such time as a necessity should
arise for its settlement. He did net think the
Jieoplc were disposed to he unfair in eonsidcr-
pliasos in the political situation, anil concern
ing the plans, prospects or condition of the
democratic party, state or national, I have
nothing whatever to say.???
The operation which Itr. Gross jierformed
some seven weeks since uisin the fungous
growth in Senator Hill's mouth has relieved
the patient from .all present inconvenience.
I have never enjoyed better general health
my life." said he, and his fine apjiearanee
strongly confirms his assertion; but. although
the old' trouble causes no present suffering.
Itr. Gross considers another operation neces
sary, as he fears that if the growth i>c not en
tirely removed it may in the future become
xceodingiy painful and dangerous. Acting
upon this advice, Senator Hill will submit to
second ojieration to-day.
A WEST POINT EPISODE.
Inkoltlnf Briton Caned bj an Irate Yankee (>lrL
A West Point sjieeial to theCliicagoTrihune
says: There eame a young man of thirty-three
ears to the Point aliout three weeks ago, and
t not handsome, had a sort of a military
tsh in his hearing and brought with him a
???rk leg. He wore at times a jaunty cap, on
liich were letters interpreted by himself as
the initials of the regiment he lieloiiged to in
the Uritish army, and talked of his deeds of
alor, his battles fought and won, his priva-
ions, and his triumphs with tlie air of a vet-
run of a score of eampaigns. He hail been
verywhero and seen everything, knew everr-
idy, and was, according to his own tale,'a
mun of the world and a son of an eminent
tiglish family. He came to Cranston???s hotel
one day and wrote his name in a hold hand
mg it. hut where a necessity should arise In
had no doubt the constitution would he found
elastic enough to provide for the presi
dent. "Of course," In- said, "while there
is a possibility of a termination of the ili:
bility, there can not he two presidents, and
the vice-president could only execute the du
ties of the position as acting president, lmt
with no less authority for the time of his tent
jsirary service than if lie were president in
fact and law." If congress should liml it
necessary to declare the disability of the pres
dent, Mr. Kvarts thought it would he prope
for the vice-president then to act for him.
JflMiK JERK iu.ack???s VIEWS.
Washington, September 3.???Judge Jerc
Illai k has been stopping in the city for several
???lays past. He has received innumerable con
graiiiSatiuns from old friends, familiar with
events which occurred during the last month:
of Mr. Ituehannu's administration, upon hi:
admirably clear and concise ex]iositioii in the
J???rcss of tlii 1 attitude of the members of litieli-
alum's cabinet u|hui the question of secession
The correspondent of the Press requested the
great jurist this evening to express his views
iijhiii the question of the vice-president as
suming the office of president during the ina
bility of the latter. Judge Ithick was a verse
to giving any opinion on the subject. II
evidently regarded it as a matter of
too grave moment to lie discussed
advance of action on the part of the presi
iilont, vico-presiilcnt, or members of the call
inet. Judge lilui'k said: ???I don???t like to
refuse anything, hut what's the use? Kvcry
IsmIj- kuows wind the constitution requires or
nuthorixes in such a conjunction as the pres-
<ni. There is nothing plainer tliwn the pn
vision for devolving tlie executive duties on
the vice-president in case of tlie president
inability. It is equally clear that when
the president becomes able to pc:
form the duties the ] tower
the vice-president ceases. I decline to say
what the president or Mr. Arthur ought to do.
That is for them to decide after taking the
liest advice they can get. They have not
asked mine, and 1 will not volunteer any
judgment about it. The presumption is tlie
they will do what is rigid, and that they will
do it in such time and such manner that the
public interest will suffer no detri
ment. If any evil comes by
delay or inismanageiueat I and you
ami all other citizens can then exercise our
inalienable right to find fault and complain
hut it is not worth white to anticipate tnml '
or advertise imaginary griefs. All the panic
personally Connected with the question are in
a most delicate ami somewhat difficult situ:
tion. A little decent forbearance of outside
would not be at all out of place.???
senator hill's views.
1 hiludclphia Times.
Senator Benjamin JI. Hill, of Georgia, who
has a second time visited Philadelphia for
surgical treatment, was found at the .tellers)
College hospital yesterday afternoon. Who
asked by what authority the disability of tli
president could he decided and what course
tlie senate would in such a ease pursue he
said that lie did not think the mutter a tli:
erect mid proper subject for the member;
tlie senate to discuss until it was mlieially
brought before them.

Beck, of Kentucky, ever made the statement
ascrilied to hint, that in sueli a ease thedetno.
emtio senators would unite to elect

of the senate. If he did make sue?

Death of Ifon. Jun:e. T. Clover. ,
Monday the house of representatives received
the sad announcement of the death of] Hon.;James
T. Glover, late representative of Twiggs county.
For ten days past he had been suffering from bil
ious fever, and was recently removed from Atlanta
to Twiggs county, where on last Sunday
he expired at the residence of Dr. O'Daniel. He
was aliout .V> years old mid had been a representa
tive of his county for six years. He was a man of
means which his open heart freely dispensed. He
hail tilled the office of judge of tiie inferior court in
his county and enjoyed the confidence of
his constituents so thoroughly that lie was
elected three times to the legislature without oppo
sition. in anmitniciio. his death to tlie house Mr.
DuPreo, of Macon, said:
Mr. S|icaker???it is with feelings of the most pro
found sorrow that I arise to announce to the
house of representatives tlie sad news
of the recent death of the Hon.
James T. Glover, of the county of Twiggs,
late member of our body, who departed this life on
Sunday lostffieptcmbcr 4th,18Sl,)while upon a bed of
sickness witlt fever, on his wav home from this city,
at tlie home of a friend oil the wayside. Yes, fel
low members, he died surrounded by friends who
hnd for years delighted to honor him. 1 would have
preferred that this sad office had been perform
ed qy another fur more worthy uud capable than
myself; lmt, sir, I was bom ujwm tlie soil of
Twiggg county, and it was upon that soil I was
reared until 1 luid attained manhood's estate, it
having been only a few short years since my foot
steps directed me to that county which I now have
the tumor ill part to represent in this chamber: anil
that alone, I have thought, might render it lilting
for me to make this announcement. And when
with me ???life???s fitful fever is over,??? 1 would
ask no higher privilege than to sleep that
eternal rest beneath her soil, remembering as 1 do
that in her bosom slumber the aalicx of those who
gave me being. Mr. speaker, I otter the followini
resolution, and nsk its adoption by the house.
The resolution was unanimously adopted, and a
>ii the register, Captain Janies G. Burslcin.
He was nut unknown, for lie hud stopped in I special committee of five appointed in pursuance
this city some little time, been introduced at thereof.
the I'nioii club, been given a visiting card,
anilmade himself solid with a good many of
the hoys among whom were quite a number
if Wall street brokers, who eame to look upon
Burslcin as a scion of an aristocratic family and
:m individual of more than ordinary claim
ii|H>n their consideration. He had brought
> this country a letter of introduction from
race Greenwood to President Garfield, and
his alone gave him a footing at the club
tnd at the homes of the Wall street ltoys that
ts particularly satisfactory to tlie captain.
The stories lie told of his military career were
ntcresting. He had, as a captain in tlie
British army, served in Zululand,
mil been a companion of tlie
prince imperial, who, in fact
lie said, died in his arms. lie had come to
America for a short vacation and would return
to his Knglisli home noon. At Cranston???s ho
tel, at West Point, among the visitors were
Mrs. and Miss Scott, the wife and daughter of
tiie San l'raneisto mine owner. They were
njoying the life at the Point, and the
young lady, who is handsome and of
did build, was a frequent attend
ant upon the hops for which the
military j>ost is famed. Captain Burslcin by
some means made the acquaintance of Miss
Scofie, hut it did not turn out as well, per-
iaj>s, as the captain had desired. It appears
that a few evenings since Miss Scofie and the
upturn engaged in conversation, during which
the latter very rudely informed the young
ndy that she was a liar, or words to that
ffect. She Thereupon complained of it
to the hotel proprietor, hut the entire
sfaldishmcnt was so firmly attached to
the captain that she was given to understand
hat complaints of that kind were of no avail
here. The girl's blood was up, however,
hast night there was a hop at headquarters,
and Miss Scofie and her mother attended.
The daughter was elaborately attired in full
evening dress, and as she was ascending the
steps <>f tlie verandah, who should she meet
leaning against the post hut tlie captain him
self. The story goes that he very im
pudently and rudely stared at her and
iceompauied the same tvitli a cloud
f cigar smoke, puffing it into the young
lady???s face, which he quickly followed with
another, whereupon she called out: ???Is there
protect me from the insults ol
this fellow???? No one of Burslcm???s friends
coming to her aid, and Miss .Scofie receiving
another volume of smoke, she at once stepped
up to the captain and hit him squarely be
tween the eyes. The blow staggered him.
He- raised u ???cnne---to defend himself
when the lady greatly infuriated l>e-
yond all bounds of control, tore the
stick from his hands and rained blows
upon his head so fast that he was felled to
the flisir. His face was badly cut and hlcil
profusely. The plucky girl then turned and
went to her room with' her mother. Shortly
Afterwards the two were instructed to leave
the hotel, the captain's influence with the
management standing hand in hand, not one
if whom, it seems, hail the manhood to stand
up for the brave girl who had thus defended
herself against the man???s insults.
An Atmospherical Phenomena???The Sun Strangely
Obscured All Day.
Boston, September 7.???From early morning to
sunset the atmosphere has been in a most curious
condition, exciting much comment anil in some in
stances creating alarm. While the air, as viewed
from tlie window looking up into tlie sky, lias
appeared to be free from fog or moisture, the
sun has ltecu totally obscured. Tlie atmosphere is
pervaded with a yellowish light, which lends a
t range ap]U':imnrc to every object. On common
grass it presents a most unmitumf appearance. Gas
ets. which ordinarily show a yellowish light bum
ng v. iili white brilliancy, making them resemble
the electric lights. In all directions distances ap
peared to he shortened through the windows
and there could be seen a star-like ]x>int
white light, resembling little electric
lamps, but being in reality gas jets. The
phenomenon is noticeable in New Hampshire and
us fur east as Portland. F. Emerson, professor
of natural philosophy and chemistry in Dartsmouth
(liege, says that it liiust tie something which all
>rl>s the shorter and long wave lengths, leaving
niy those which give the color of yellow and green.
1c thinks that it may be owing to tlie pollen from
tiie fire anil pine trees together with the smoke
from the forest fires in Canada.
PitnvniExcK, Septcnf ter 7.???The day has boon
excessively dark here, accompanied wiili great sul
triness. The consumption of gas commenced at
n<Min and failed at about 3 o???clock, compelling ofli
???es and factories either to close work or resort to
???audios. The failure of the gas lasted about half an
hour and was due to temporary disarrangement.
Haktkorp, September 7.???This city shared iu the
darkness of other parts of New England, to-day.
Gas had to lie used everywhere and light was whjte
as the electric light.
Exposition Notes.
The Remington title company contributes $300 to
the ex]Hisitioii.
It is reported at headquarters that the failure of
the state of Iieorgia to give any aid to the exposition
has thrown a damper oil the enterprise throughout
the north, many declaring that if the state did not
recognize it, it could not be much.
Mr. Wilson, of the Mount Airy hotel has taken the
building now occupied by the Mei'.rides, wlini will
more into the Moore & Marsh building, and will
stahlisli a restaurant.
There is considerable complaint Among the citi
zens of Atlanta as to the fee charged by the bureau
that registers private houses, and it is pmliublc that
the executive committee will abolish tlie fee and
pay the expenses of tlie bureau out of the funds of
the cx|Hisilimi.
Several thousand people visited the grounds on
last Sunday, crowding the double line of streets ears
to their utmost capacity and tilling tiie road with
carriages.
The fountains arc being put in place in front of
the main building, and the grounds are being laid

"TUCKING IN.???
A Rural Wedding and What Followed.
Clara Belle's Vermont Letter to Cincinnati En
quircr.
We had a contrast between town and rural man
tiers mid dress yesterday at a country wedding. Tlie
bride was a rosy cheeked chambermaid at the hotel
and we were all invited to the wedding at he
father's farm-house, several miles away. The cere
many was performed in ihc usual manner by a
lergyman, late in the afternoon. A bountiful, if
not a pretentious, supper followed, :iu<l then eame
ai.icx???old-fashioned kissing games, like copenhn-
geu. lKisl-nlticcs mid forfeits. The city girls held off
Tile, but seeing that their coyness was not
well received, made martyrs of themselves
and generally liked it. I think
enroll a fact that i> not generally known in ki:
iug tiia', for tin- most electrical results, one kisse
should be a blonde ami the other a bsunette, rep
resenting tiie opposite poles of a hatter}'. Certainly,
the kisses between persons of the same complexion
looked and sounded mechanical and perfunctory,
while those by contrasted couples were fiery, spir
ited and harmoniously explosive. However, after
several hours of diversions largely oscillatory, there
went to bed a most thoroughly kissed bride. He
scarlet lips l inked swollen with the ordeal of long
and earnest kissing, for she had been smacked
r and over by every man and woman in
the party. She hail ixirue the treatment with gixxl
humor, and no married life wan ever begun with a
merrier frolic, ltut the crowning exploit was an
observance of the obi Vermont custom of tucking
up the happy couple in bed. Half an hour aite
they had retired we burglarized their bed-chu'.nher
mul turned the light of half a dozen lamps on them
We saw a sight that proved woman's superior forti
tude. Tiie bridegroom turned red and white by
turns, and was completely flabbergasted: but the
bride, though her face lay rosy enough
on the snowy pillow, was quite sclf-jiossessed. She
had dressed herself In a dainty new night-dress,
with shirrings over tiie shoulder and on the bishop
sleeves, mid may have derived her courage from a
previous view at herself in tiie glass. Very lovely
she was, and very prettily careful to keep herself
covered just enough, but not so much as to hide the
yoke of that charming night-gown. Tlie ceremony
consisted o: tucking ill the bedclothes all around,
and so closely amt violemly that the new man ami
wife were well shaken together. Then we left them

We are in constant receipt of inquiries regarding
the money for loan at S per cent on Georgia land;
written alxiut in The (Vissimtios some tirneag*
Tlie facts are these: Messrs. Nelson, Barker & Co.
representing a large amount of northern capital
have established an office in Atlanta, and are loan
ing money at s i>er cent on real estate. They havi
already loaned over $270,000 in the state and are
anxious to loan ten times as much if they can ge
security. They usually loan aliout one-third of the
value of the property loaned on.
At present they are loaning in twelve counties only
including Fulton. DeKalb, Clarke, Floyd, Spald
ing. Morgan. Washington, Wilkes and Cobb, and
III os- others. They are. extending their range of
work as fast as jxissilde. and when they are ready to
operate in a county advertise the fact. In the mean
time Mr. Jarboc. representing the same or similar
ixirlics as Messrs. Nelson, Barker* Co., i< traveling
over the state apia tinting attorneys in all the conn

Nounties, we believe, to the 12 occupied by Messrs,
stelsou. Barker* Co., ami will cover the whole
cate. Those gentlemen say that the amount
money they have to bun is practically unlimited.
They hare certainly loaned promptly on every ap
plication indorsed by their attorneys, and we pre

his fidelity with a slice of pie. The commissariat

PURE SUGAR,
By a recent invention, starch or com sugar
(more generally known os glucose), heretofore
quite extensively used by confectioners,
brewers, etc., has been made sufficiently dry
and white so that it can be powdered and
mixed with yellow sugars. It raises the
standard of color largely, but not being so
sweet reduces the saccharine strength, mak
ing it necessary to use more of the article to
attain the usual degree of sweetness. Large
quantities of this mixture afe now being
made and sold under various brands, hut all
of them, so far as we are aware, hear the
words ??? New Process ??? in addition to other
brands.
'As refiners of cane sugar, we are, in view
of these facts, liable to be placed in a false
position before the public, as the results of
analysis of sugar bought indiscriminately,
will seem to confirm the false and malicious
statements of interested persons, who alleged
it was the common practice of the leading
refiners to mix glucose with their sugars.
While not intimating that a mixture of glu
cose and cane sugar is injurious to health,
we do maintain that it defrauds the innocent
consumer of just so much sweetening power.
In order, therefore, that the public can get
sugar pure and in the condition it leaves
our refineries, we now put it up in barrels
and half barrels.
Inside each package will be found a guar
antee of the purity of the contents as follows:
We hereby inform the public that our
refined sugars consist solely of the ptoduct of
raw sugars refined. Neither Glucose, Mu
riate of Tin, Muriatic Acid, nor any other
foreign substatue "whatever is, ???or ever has
been, mixed with them. Our Sugars and
Syrups are absolutely unadulterated.
Affidavit to the above effect in New York
papers of November i8th, 1878.
Consumers should order from their grocer,
sugar in our original packages, either half or
whole barrels.
Consider well the above
when purchasing sugar
for preserving purposes, i
