WEEKLY TELEPHONE Walter 8. Bradfute, - Editor A REPUBLICAN PAPER. published every Saturday Morning. Ope Yeia....... 40 Office: Over;,Bee Hive"Store SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1881. Tlie Editor is in no way reKmtnsible for opinions that may be expressed by private persons in letters published in these col awns. Ooulcliugr. Conklikg! He is au inhuman wretch, as fanatic as a Lunatic over his self-importance, and as egotistical as Goliath of Gath, who was a victim of a shepherd'3 boy. Conkling's vile tongue .shot the President a hundred times with slander, it poured venoincs malice upon his pure name, trying to take from him that most prized of ail jewels a noble character; and now since the assassin's pistol, loaded and primed by the actions of this "strut" of humanity, has been discharged by a wandering lunatic and almost mortally wounded our Chief Magistrate, Roscoe Conkltnc in the Senate at Albany, continues his desperate fight that he may again return to the Senate of the United States, and what? And their stand and with his vicious tongue continue to unload his malicious vile on the man who had just been spared by Providence, we wight say from the assassin's bullet, after a long and terrible sickness, to resume his duties as President In h'S hands is the key of harmony, to the Republican p rfy. By one word or a single stroke of his pen, both factions could be united, making a party of no factions, with no "Stalwarts" or "Administrationists," .butt a healthy organization to fight the enemy. But not so with this piece of illeged "dignity." lie hands the party he pretended to adhere too over to the enemy, and then with the bravado of a whipped canine crawls back to his kenel and howls to "let me do it again," meanwhile snapping and growling at everybody that says not, and, a assuming as the dog in the manger he thwarts the will of the people. In. his fit of self-importance he is at the outer d:or of the sick room awaiting the exit of the suffering inmate, that he may again resume his dastrous work. C'oxklixg- will not succeed. The people have followed his "whining" delusions already too Jong, and their sympathy for him if ever had any is fast moulding into anger. He has antagonized the President at his own expense, and though ot from any effort to the reverse, he to-day steneb a synonym of defeated in;H)rtance, and au example to others. The champion Boss has gone on before, a guiding star for others yet to follow. Americans are too tender, tle great Republican part too generous to uphold a roan who has no respect tor almost a martyred prtsideut, it is to principled to indorse a man who has proven an arch-traitor. This week the Telephone lays before its readers a letter from the par ty now traveling in Europe. It is full ; of interest and characteristic of the! author's writings. ''Gath" will be I leiiieuibeivd as our University correspondent. When over a church wants to have a little picnic on the Sabbath, they j just rail it a "camp, meeting-' . ami tijrn out en masse. -.

From Europe, Special Correspondent of the Telephone. London, England, J une 22, "We've sailed the ocean blue," and are almost ready to land on mother earth, in old Britain, tho land of the Queen and the home of Pat, the I. ishman. During the trip all has been nice except the eating, and the garlic well mixed with onions are too many for us; and every thing pleasant except sea-sickness, to which all but four f us fell a victim, and wc were victims. It would be placing mould-hill beside the Rocky mountains to try to describe it by anything this side of death. But we ,4rijoycd the voyage, out on the rolling Atlantic a thousand miles from laud from either side, plenty of time to talk and meditate, to think of home a d our friends, and how warm it was, and if all were well, aud how the 4 th could pass with so much "prepared and ready for use" oratory shut up away from the land of Garfield, On our steamer wc don't get up early or go to bed late. We eat four times a clay and discuss topics of the day, from religion down to one of Dr. Jordon's fish stories, and from temperance across to politics. But e do get tired looking at the same objects, talking over the same subjects and doing the same things day in and day out, any and every thing to kill time. But getting sea-sick gets far ahead of any thing on record. It comes "like a theif in the night," and lingers like visiting relatives from the city in summer time, the only preceptiable difference being ' this seasickness' takes every thing you have eaten, while the city cousin takes it before. I was about congratulating myscilfon escaping this king of ocean terrors whin suddenly something stouck rne and I too made haste to the railing and in keepiug with the biblical whale, contributed my mite all I had eaten since we started. The company on board the ship is indeed a select party, a happy and a jolly crowd. Often we tipped our fantastic toe in the evenings, to the tune of a hand organ which Philanthropist Beach turned with blind-man-like siniplic ty, while Bro. Adams was paid for oiling the crank. As the most graceful dancer Dr. Jordon had no rivals. On Sunday we held church and completed the organization of a first class Sunday School, and stayed at home all day and were very good During our entire voyage the weather was favorable and we had very little real rough sea, so the crew said, and I suppose they knew, but if we had a "smooth" ride, just consider this an excuse from a rough one. Land is in sight! "All's well." In a short time we will be treading the streets of mighty Loudon, where we expect to remain four days, visit the Queeu's mansion, see Parliament, both brancues, and perhaps go and see the Royal burying graunds, where Beaconslield and other Lordly personages lay mouldering as quite and peaceful, as strong and powerful as if the humblest serf. Our journey thus far promises to be a most pleasant one if wc are .favored with health. All of us are anxious to get a j u per to ui't the news from Amcrkn. for twelve days on the oeean serins almost an ago. I am anxious to know how many If pes Oariicld is ahead of Oml:- ; linr, and if the Hjuaiv thin is L1 i: i done at Albany. I viil mail this n soon m we land, which will indictfte that all is right.

By Telegraph. LatestJuly 15th: 8:30 a. m. The President res ted well during the night. He is doing admirably this morning, and takes his food with relish. During the week the news from Washington has been most assuring of the entire recovery ot the President Each cricis has been easily overcome and confidence is fast taking the place of hope and dispair, No further attemp is being made to find the ball, or dkely will till the President' is almost well. He is very weak and can hardly move without assistance. His noble little wife still encourages him,and stavs by his bedside most of the time. Of the President's condition during the weelc, the Chicago Tribune says: "Tho President may get well. That is probably a fair statement of the case now, as it has been from the first. It is characteristic of American people to accept the most roseate view of things when it accords with their ardent wishes. It is becoming in this case to hope. It ts proper for those who surround the President to encourage him to continue his fight for life. But it is not wise for the public to deceive itself about his actual condition. It has been critical from the moment the slug of the "bull-dog" revolver penetrated into his body and struck him down, and is so atill. It is not well that his death, if it occurs, shall come upon the people with the same shock as the first announcement that he had been assassinated. 1 1 will be time to rejoice when he shall be on his feet v. gain. So long as ho li c unable to move, sleeping tinder the influence of morphine, suffering great puiuwuen awake, speaking carcoly above a whisper, indifferent to the nourishment that is given him, occasionally flighty and wandering In his mind, and the temperature and puh-'e which at sometime every day rise to a dangerous h;ight, the Anicrbah people should bo' prepared for the woret tho' they hope for the be.st." 3ovc .A.toiit tiio OoiiAot, In compliance with our" request Prof. Kirk wood, of the Indiana Universily, furnishes us the following additional remarks in regard to the comet still visible, at least telescopically, near the polar star : "The great comet of U'8l will be memorable hi historv. 1 'he phenomenon observed by Prof Stoue a few evenings since, indicating a operation of the body into parts immediately under the eye of the observer, is a remarkable occurrence iu eometary physics. Another fact of great intereet is the striking resemblance of .its elements to those of the comet of ic'07. These coincidences were so lemarkable that Dr. Gould, of Cordoba, S. A., thought ihe bodies must be identical. It must be admitted, however, that similarity of orbits does not always, prove identity. The fact is suggestive of an original connection in space, before entering the solar domain, either as a eometary system or an extensive cosmical cloud. Tho wide Kcperation of parts, if wo accept Bezel's period of the comet of 1807, will be an intori sting ciihjtct fur mathematical discussion. "The possible relation between the coin els of 1807 and 1881 gives renewed value to the recorded observations of the former. The remark of ( "uopeimat "uiu pcriuroations will cause i great changes in the elements, priucipally affecting the duration of the revolution," will be recalled will; especial interest.
