ASSASSINATION.

Since the murder ot Lincoln no more deplorable event has occurred in this country than the assassination or attempted assassination of President Oarfield. Murder at all times and under all circumstances is so awful an assumption of the attributes of God as to add sacrilege to its other qualities as a crime. Men stand in bewilderment when the humblest citizcn is stricken to the earth by the hand of his fellow man. But when the Chief Magistrate of the Nation is the target for the pistol of the assassin, the murderous missile seems aimed at the breast of every citizen in the land. The righteous wrath of every individual is roused against the bloody brute that assumes to prostrate the will ot forty million people and who arrogates to himself the right to impeach, try, convict and sentence to death him whom a great and free people have chosen to rule over them.

That (Jarfield should have been chosen as lie victim of vengeance is peculiarly distressing. Politics aside and differences of opinion forgotten in the presence of a national calamity, he is as splendid a specimen of American manhood mentally morally and physically as the country lias ever produced. Had Guitteau been the sort of man that Macbeth was and moral iml on his bloody work before its accomplishment he might well have used the language of the Scottish regicide and said: "This Garfield hatn borne his faculties so meek, hath been 80 oiear In his great office, that his virtues

Will plead like angels, trumpet-tongued, against Tie deep damnation of his taking offi And pity, like a naked new-born Dabe. (Striding the blast, or Heaven's cherubim, horrd Upon the sightless couriers of the air, Shall blow th» horrid deed in every eye, That tears shall drown the wind." As to Guitteau, there is only small room for doubt that he is a lunatic. But there is so much method in his madness and his insanity is of so destructive and dangerous a typee as to^require that, should capital punishment not be inflicted, he should be kept closely confined for the remainder of his life. Insanity of the sort with which he is afflicted, it might as well be understood, is wholly incura~ ble and the safety of the community requires perpetual incarceration.

It is a fortucate circumstance that Gui teau is net a Democrat and especially that be is not a Southern man. Had Conkling been on the same terms with Garfield that he was with Grant and a Southern man been the President's assailant it is not difficult to imagine the arrogant Senator denouncing a whole section and a great party as the backers ot the assassin. He would not say that the Democratic party or the Southern people actually planned the murder and were participants in its execution, but he would say that an unbalanced intellect, overborne by their fierce denunciation of him had been persuaded that murder was patriotism. It so happens that Mr. Conkling and his friends have said much more bitter things of President Garfield than any democrats have. And Guitteau, who is a stalwart of the stawarts, has believed with that des perate band of implacable haters that the President had broken every promise and sowed the seeds of party discord. Conkling has tried to kill the reputa--tation of the President with sneers, and taunts, and accusations of perfidy, and falsehood, and duplicity, which unfortunately for him the ceuntry has not accepted. On a question of veracity,or honor or good faith, or manliness, or generosity, or justice, between Garfield and Conkling nine hundred and ninety niue even out of

Every thousand wouli side with the President. Should Garfield die, the successorship falling to Arthur is an overwhelming calamity. He is a weak and vicious man under the control ot as violent and unprincipled a set of political desperadoes as ever sought to use a government for the furtherance of private ends. Should Arthur come to be President, as it is devoutly to be hoped he never may the third term gang whose star set at Chicago, will be enthroned in the seat of power. Nor will their displacement be easy, backed, as they will|be by, the money of the monopolists. That Garfield's lite may be spared ought to be the prayer of every patriot His death would be an overwhelming calamity.

The Chicago Times truthfully remarks: ..»f"The death of Garfield would be doubly a disaster because of the well known charcter of the man who would necessarily bebomc his successor.

A cibcos clown says he has had as many as fifty offers in a season from women who wanted to elope with him. He is either a big liar or the women were big fools.

MONTREAL ORANGEMEN Are said to be making extensive preparations for a celebration of the Battle of the Boyne on the 12th of July. Another Orange riot will of course be the result. It would be better for all sides if the parades were discontinued, and the affair forever buried in oblivion.

DEMOCRATIC EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION.

The Democratic editorial fraternity, of Indiana, met in convention at Michigan City on Thursday of last week. This is the second meeting of the kind in the State, but it will be followed by others and the next one has already been appointed to meet in Indianapolis in Janu* ary 1881. The attendance was quite large, there being fully twe thirds of the Democratic papers of the State represented. Little business was done, the members taking some time to get acquainted with one another and the aims and the purposes of the organization being as ye scarcely formulated or understood. Be. sides the time of the meeting was encroached upon by the hospitality of the good people of Michigan City, who showered attentions upon their visitors and did everything in their power to make the visit a pleasant one. A visit to and through their mammoth car works, to the penitentiary, a ride on the lake and a reception at the residence of Senator

Winterbotham were among the most formal expressions of their attention. A a meeting in the afternoon, attended by the citizens as well a« the editors, Mayor Harris delivered a graceful address of welcome to which John B. Stoll, President of the Association, made response.

Many members of the Association saw Michigan City for the first time. As Indiana's only harbor City it is a point of interest to the whole State and its really fine harbor is an object which deserves the attention of the whole people.

It was proposed in the meeting to adopt an address which a committee had prepared, embodying the views which it was designed to make issues in the next canvass. But after discussion it was Anally decided to let the matter go over until the next meeting: Just here it is plain to see the importance of the future meetings ot this Association. The men on whose shoulders fall the heaviest buiden of conducting political campaigns will before long direct what the issues shall be and fashion the platform on whieh the party will stand. It was proposed to do this at the meeting the other day, but it was delayed until the gatbet'in next January.

A significant feature of the occasion was the feeling of confidence in the campaign of next year which prevades ail breasts. It seemed to be the almost unanimous opinion of those present that Indiana could be carried by the Democrats next year by a handsome majority. When the canvass does come, and fortunately "it is along way off, the Democratic papers of the 8tate will speak with one voice and present a united front. There will be no cross purposes and conflicting opinions.

Our townsman cx-Secretary| of the NavyR. W. Thompson was in Nevr York Saturday, a guest of the Fifth Avenue Hotel. A reporter of the New York Herald saw him there and interviewed him concerning the attempted assassination of President Garfield. The interview as published is as follows: "I scarcely know what to think about this matter," he said to A Herald reporter. "It is a most fearful, most terrible calamity. I never heard of anything like it. Lincoln's assassination id not to te compared to it. Lincoln was shot in a time of war, when there was bitterness and strife everywhere throughout the land. The act of Booth was a terrible one. to be sure, but the shooiing of President Garfield was influitely worse. Assassination ia time of war is bad but in time of peace it is much woruc. The country has seldom been in abetter condition than it is at present. It is prosperous, and but for a petty local squabble between political factions in New York State harmony might be said to exist 6 very where. There cannot be a shadow of an excuse for the crime. However much certain republicans might oppose the President politi caliy everybody esteemed him personally I think the assassin "was actuated by personal spite or else he was insane. 1 cannot conceive it possible that such a coldblooded attempt at murder could be committed by any sane man. It is an unfortunate event in every sense of the term and a national calamity. Our government and its institutions have had very severe shocks at times, but I regard the assassination of General Garfiela as the heaviest attack that could be made. Every crime committe duader our flag is a blow at our institutions, and the greater he crime the more severe the blow,( Assassination of a ruler is the greatest crime against representative government and I fear greatly for our country oh* this account. It would appear writ the United States were being gradually Mexicanized. The strain will be great, and the ability to successfully withstand it will show the permanency of our institutions. Aside from this view of the matter, however, what a blow is dealt at the family ot the President. His wife, that most devoted lady, will be heart broken. She has only just recovered from a very severe illness, and the shooting of her husband, will, I fear, be terribly hard for her to bear. My sympathies are all with her and her family. I hardly know what to do. I feel as if I should do something, although just what I could not tell. I think I will take the next train for Washington."

And the good hearted and benevolentSecretary ordered his baggage immediately and left the hotel.

It is probable that Count Herbert Bismarck, elder son of Prince Bismark, will shortly be attached to the German legation at Washington.

A pair of gentleman's shoes have been picked up and are advertised in this issue. The owner can have the same by applying at 303 North 8th street and proving property.

THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

•«./**•. r*.-.

Spbakikg at his brother's funeral Col lngersoll said: "This brave and tender man, in eveiy storm of life was oak and rock, bat in the sunshine be was vine and flower." Of no man living do these words now seem so true as of him who lies at death's portals within the White House. "Tryants have had cause to dread assassinationsays a writer in the Cincinnati Commercial, "but this large-hearted, kindly man had not rightly an enemy in the world. Tb«y said his fault was that he was too gentle and softhearted for a President. He was the representative man of the American people, one who had sprung irom the very heart of toil and poverty. From this lowly lot he worked bis way slowly and painfully to tbe highest place his coun trym%n could -give him. It was notable how the hearts of men followed him and warmed to him at every step upward in his career.

Every schoolboy knows by heart that pathetic early history of the murdered President. The story of hiB heroic struggle to gain hii education, how he endured privation, and even the sneers of his richer classmates, till his triumph came at last. All this will remain an inspiraion to ambitious American boys Jwhile the Nation remains a Republic. This grim early life stamped an earnestness of manner on him which characterized him ever after. He gained a grace and dignity which well became bim as he advanced in years but a certain gentle seriousness never left him. It was a survival of the time when the youth was fighting fate, painfully laying up the rich store of classical learning which caused a London paper to say of him that he was the most scholarly President America'ever had.

LANJ LEAGUE SYMPATHY.

ResslatioM Passed Desoinciitg the Attempted Atoaa* initio*.

The Terre Haute branch of the Land League, met ."Sunday evening'at Oriental Hall, President Hajyerty in the chair. Despite thfe sultry' and uncomfortable warm weather? a fair audience was present.' Secretary Osborne read extracts from the latest copy ot tbe Irith World. P. |B. O'Reily moved that a committee of three be appointed to draft resolutions of sympathy for the afflicted President carried.

The chair named Mr. O'Reilly, Howard Manning and John Hanley and the three gentleman retired.

John F. O'Reilly sang an Irish song in a capital manner. Mr. O'Neill, of Marshall, sang a Land League song composed by himself, which elicited frequent applause.

Tbe committee entered, and the follow ing resolutions were,.read and unanimously adopted: 1. Resolved, That we hold in abhorrence and detestation the attempted assassination of His Excellency, James A. Garfield, President of tbe United States, a man who in every respect has shown himself to be worthy of the position be holds in the government, and who is, we believe, respected in the hearts of the people, irrespective of their political character. 2. ThatPresident Garfield, we believe, has the confidence of every liberty-ltjving Irishman, throughout tbe length and breadth of this great republic, and that the attempt made upoil his life is a blot upon civilization throughout the Christian world. 3. That not alone the Land League, but every Irishman, no matter of what creed or political character, hates and detests the cowardly assassin who without provocation or excuse would attempt to take the life of any man, more especially one who is beloved by all and hated by none except those who are without honor, intelligence or shame. 4. That we extend our heartfelt sympathy to the relatives and friends of the President, and pray that a kind Providence may restore him speedily to health and strength.

Mr. P. B. O'Reilly said he heard a man class the Land League as a Nihilistic organization. That man ought to be pitied. His lack ot common sense and knowledge could not be found anywhere but inside the doors ol an insane asylum.

Irishmen never sanctioned assassination It was not in their natural character to seek refuge beneath the assassin's garb. Theie is nothing socialistic taught in the Land League nothing but the broadesj principles of humanity, justiee and patriotism. Tbe tyrannical rulers of Eng land may need a Brutus, but in this free Republic there is no occasion for assassination in any form whatever. Tbe link of

Sawly,

ranny and oppression is coming off bat severely. The lion diesliar^, but it Hiusi evidently He down. Thel wan who says the Land League is not worthy of the confldencc and support of tj)e American people is uot worthj^Jiiatt* self'of fEie respect due to a common Christian. (Applause)

John F. O'Reilly was pressed for another song and gave "Larry McHale." Peter iDufff sang "The Dear Little Shamrock of Ireland.

Michael McMahoa recited in a dramatic and very affecting manner a poem written by Margaret Sullivan, of Chicago. It set forth in smooth verses tbe objects of tbe League, and Mr. McMahon received quite an ovation.

The meeting then adjourned, MOKK KKOLUTIOXS. Morton post G. A. R. met Saturday night and passed resol at ions on the sail affair.

Prompt Action of Compound Oxygen in Lung Diseases.

The promptness with which Compound! Oxygen acts in throat and lung diseases is veiy remarkable. Mrs. Alice •. Danials, ot Ramsey's Station, Alabama, sends, without solicitation, and for publication, a statement of the results of its use in her case, from which we make a single extract. She says, "In four days after commencing to inhale the Compound Oxygen, chills, fever and night sweats were all gone! My appetite, which before was. at its lowest ebb, soon became good. My strength increased very rapidly, and improvement has been steadily going on. ever since the first inhalation. My cough. slowly became milder, and to-day I can truthfully say that I am almost a well woman." Send for our treatise on Com-t pound Oxygen. It will be mailed free. Drs. Stahxby & Palen, 1109 and 1111 Girard street, Philadelpnia, Pa.

Doctor Agnew's Opinion.

Before leaving Washington Doctor Agnew said to a oabinet officer: "There are some marvelously favorable symptoms about this case, considering the nature of. the wound. From a very careful examination of the wound, I feel able to state positively that the abdomen and the kidneys have not been harmed, nor has tbe spinal column been touched. The ball hat probably lacerated! the liver.jThe restlesaness of'the patient and the tingling Senear tion of the limbs are probably caused by that laceration and, the severing of smaftk. nerves."
