"THE LONDON' POST."
July A. The Post says:
No cwnt has so profoundly mov
ed the English nation for many
years, not excepting the assassina
tion of the czar, as the attempt upon
the life of President Garfield. We
venture to say that not only in Eng
land, but wherever the Euglieh lan
guage is spoken, the sad tidings
have fallen with all the force of a
domestic calamity. "We hope Gar
field may be spared to discharge the
duties of his proud office; but we
can not banish feelings awakened by
the gravest apprehenBionB of the
crime, apparently motiveless and
purposeless. Garfield has done noth
ing to provoke that political ani
mosity which so frequently furnish
es an excuse for regicide. "We fail
to see bow the murder of the presi
dent can serve the ends of any
political party. There seemB no
doubt the assassin is insane. It will
be satisfactory to know the crime is
not the outcome of nihilism. "We
may be permitted to hope that, with
Garfield's excellent constitution, he
may recover. It is inexpressibly
saddening to think that by the act
of a miserable idiot the president of
a mighty republic, and the nominal
ruler of millions of intelligent and
industrious people should be laid at
death's door, the machinery of a
continent momentarily puzzled, aud
possibly two states on opposite sides
of the Atlantic plunged into mourn
ing. "the daily NEWS."
The Daily News says :
It gives us the liveliest satisfac
tion to announce that there is now
every hope of Garfield's recoyery.
The utmost sympathy will be felt
throughout England with Sirs. Gar
field and the people of America, in
the grievous misfortune which has
befallen them. The queen has given
fitting expression to this sympathy
by the dispatch of telegrams to Mr.
and Sirs. Garfield. The former has
won the general respect of friend
aud foe. There seemB no reason to
doubt that Guitcau was instigated
by purely personal motives. The
vengeance of baffled cupidity could
seldom have selected a more blame
Icbs victim than Garfield. One fea
ture of this disaster is the absence of
all excuso for conucctiug it with
revolutionary enterprises. Political
assassination has lately stimulated
the imaginations of mauy people to
a morbid pitch of alarm, and the
language of vaporing braggarts like
O'Donovati Rossa has been treated
with far too serious attention. If
Garfield recovers, the satisfaction of
the English people will be deep,
genuine, and universal.
The Daily 2fews appears to-day
in semi-mourning.
"TnE TELEGnxrH."
The Telegraph says :
It is certain that, if Guiteau really
uttered the words, "Arthur is now
president," there will be wide
spread suspicion in America that
the crime may hare been the result
of a political conspiracy. Inquiry
will, however, probably show that
the crime was the individual act of
an undisciplined vagabond, driven
to homicidal mania by a combina
tion of uncontrollable- grood of office
and despair of gain. America will
find that this cancer of place-hunting
must be cut out, or it will eat away
the healthy life of the body politic.
"We sympathize with the American
nation, from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific, who, but for the mercy of
Providence, might at this moment
mourn beside the death-bed of their
elected chief. "We are brethren in
the heritage of freedom and genius,
and as brothers we offer them the
comfort of brother love. The ban
ners they like to set fluttering on
the Fourth of July will droop from
their poles to-day or lie furled.
What more can be said than that the
British nation, clasping a brother's
hand, bids America be of good cheer
and hope? Meanwhile, desire joins
with duty to hope and pray that
Garfield's illustrious life may be
spared to his country and world.
"the standard."
The Standard 6ays :
Indignation, sympathy, and emo
tions of hope and fear have been as
strong and vivid hers as in America,
and when the news was received
that President Garfield was better,
the feeling of thankfulness was as
hearty and sincere as it was univer
sal, from the queen down to her
humblest subject. The circumstan
ces of the outrage and the period of
its occurrence intensify the feelings
of detestation and abhorrence which
the news would at any time have
excited. The hypothesis of lunacy
maybe dismissed. All evidence in
dicates that Guiteau knew perfectly
well what he was about We doubt
if his futile candidature for a con
sulship is enough to explain the
deed. If the assassin was the agent
of any political conspiracy there is
little difficulty in conjecturing what
the objects of the conspiracy are.
"With Garfield out of the way, not
much more, perhaps, is likely to be
heard of civil-service reform or cor
rection of the host of official abuses.
Recently President Garfield has
shown, in connection with Fenian
ism in" America, regard for English
interests. These are things that nat
urally quicken our sympathies with
the head of the American govern
ment, and deepen our detestation of
the abominable outrage.
CINCINNATI.
July 3. The Enquirer, after com
paring this with the murder of the
czar, says :
President Garfield vr&s a man fit
to justify the pride of the American
that the chief magistrate might safe
ly walk forth unattended, while
companies of soldier could not save
crowned heads. The killing of such
a presideut in a country like this in
a time of profound peace, is a crime
which cries for some word of mul
tiplied force to convey the gravity.
It is the desperate deed of a wretch
whose mere existence presents one
of the greatest dangers to society.
It will be with Indignation that the
people of this country will receive
the slight suggestion of insanity
which has already been communi
cated. The murdered man was more than
James A. Garfield he was fhe pres
ident. The manner of his death is a
menace to the government which
will not bear temporizing. Howev
er, unpleasant it may be to those
who are prominently engaged in the
factional fight in the republican
party at this time, and however un
just the reflection on them, the peo
ple will take notice of the slightest
circumstance, and now this is the
only circumstance to note that the
assassin declared ho was a stalwart
and Arthur was president.
ST. LOUIS.
"the globk-democrat."
The Globe-Democrat says :
Yesterday the telegraph flashed
around the earth the startling intel
ligence that tho president of the
United States had been stricken
down by an assassin, aud the world
is surprised and shocked at the most
unexpected and unaccountable of
crimes. The old world sovereigns,
great and Bmall, are aware that
Nemesis follows closely on their
tracks, but that the president of the
United States should be selected for
assassination is an occurrence of
which the world never dreamed.
The country Ib prosperous beyond
any precedent in the history of the
nation, and there never yet existed
a great people as free from political
grievances as are the people of the
United States at the present time.
There. is no pretense that the presi
dent is in the slightest degree re
sponsible for the few evils, real or
faucied, which exist to remind the
people that their country is not an
Utopia. The man is bo completely
overshadowed by his office that the
possibility of his murder was not
considered, as ho is possessed of a
character which would disarm re
venge even when prompted by de
votion to principles. He is one of
those large-brained men whose men
tal horizons expand steadily with
the growth of their experience, and
who addressed himself with earnest
ness and industry to the work which
devolved upon him. A thorough
patriot, a gallant soldier, and tried
statesman, his counlrymen have per
fect faith in his conscientious ob
servance of his official obligation.
Those of his own political household
who have felt aggrieved at his con
duct have been free to trace his
errors to ill-judged advice rather
than to wrong intent, yet at tho
very beginning of his term in the
midst of the highest material pros
perity and greatest attainable polit
ical quiet, he is assassinated with
deadly intent by a lunatic simply
because he is president. Well may the
world be surprised and shocked.
During the long day yesterday the
sad news of the morning reasserted
itself, growing indeed more decis
ively sad until late in the evening,
when it was announced that possibly
the nation had been deprived of its
chosen chief. Hope, which had been
abandoned in the afternoon, was re
newed at night. Speaking for many
who have not cordially agreed with
the president in all thinks, wo feel
sure that we express their sentiment
as well as our own when we hopo
the great calamity which threatened
this nation yesterday, when news
went forth that James A. Garfield
had been stricken unto death, may
be averted, and the grief which was
universal throughout the land six
teen years ago may not be called for
again, as it certainly would be had
the mad vagabond of yesterday ac
complished his purpose.
NEW ORLEANS.
"the democrat."
The Democrat says :
Not since the assassination of Mr.
Lincoln has anything so appalling
occurred. It is an event shocking
in iteelf and immeasurable in its in
fluences. We feel safe in saying
that our people, one and all, echo
the aspiration that Mr. Garfield may
be brought through the great and
terrible blow which has overtaken
him. His incumbency had been ac
cepted by the south in all faith and
contentment, and he was looked to
with a thousand warm and pleasant
hopes which have suddenly been
transferred to indignant sorrow.
Councilman Harley struck a blow
in the right direction when he offer
ed a resolution directing the city
attorney to begin suit against the
A. & N. or B. & M., or both, to re
cover the $25,000 bonus given to the
A. & N. R. R. to run their line into
this city, and which they subse
quently took up as far south as the
prison. Councilman Harley has the
thanks of tax-paying people for this
timely act, and all who know him
know that he means business, and
that ha will not stop at the resolu
tion above bnt will follow it up to
the end. The B. & M. should pay
its full complement of taxeB,as well
as individuals. Lincoln Globe
I ..I fe's Opportunities.
Lile i., in a great degree, what wo
make it. We nrc not to sit passive
ly awaiting the good time; but we
are to strivo with a mighty strength
of purpose to make of ourselves ex
amples of goodness, wisdom, in
tegrity and high, moral courage, so
that when tho end shall come we
'shall feel we have not lived in vain.
And how shall we succeed if we
pass by, heedlessly, life's precious
opportunities? We would not en
force upon our readers the necessity
of grasping great opportunities
alone far from it; for, do not the
little drops of water make the broad
restless ocean? And where the
desort but for the little grains of
sand ? So it is that little opportu
nities for doing good, little lessons
that may at present seem so unim
portant, help materially to lay the
foundation for tho great and useful
life.
Our faculties for exercisiug an in
fluence over others are bo many and
great that it is difficult to converse
together without exerting a mutual
influence ; aud every man who crit
ically examines his intellectual aud
moral state will observe that how
ever short his interview with an
other person may be it has had an
effect upon him. And this influence
is usually exerted when we think
little about it ; but we have probably
left impressions upon some miuds
which will never be erased. And
this influence and constancy has
often great power; a single instance
of advice, reproof, caution, or en
couragement, may decide the ques
tion of a man's respectability, use
fulness and happiness for a life-time.
How important, then, that we im
prove every opportunity to make
our lives a blessing to others.
Western I ..I IV.
With only a team and a few dol
lars the emigrant determines to
make himself a homo in the wilds of
the West. His first care is to build
a sod house, as he must havo a shel
ter. That done, about the middle
of May he commences breaking
prairie, and if ho has a good horse
team, succeeds in "Citing from forty
to Bixty acres broken 'by the middle
of Juuc. A few acres of the first
breaking are usually planted to corn,
dropped into a cut made through
the sod with an axe, which incision
is eloped with the foot of the plant
er. This cannot bo cultivated, and
is wholly at the mercy of the season.
Half the time it is a failure, but if a
favorable season yields from twenty
to thirty bushels to tho aero. Mel
on?, pumpkins and squashes usually
do well on sod, and turnips sown in
midsummer seldom fail. In the fall
ho "back-sets" his ground with his
breaking plow, taking an inch or so
of ground below the spring break
ing. The ground should not be
plowed deoper than it is thoroughly
rotted. The ground is now ready
for the crop, and his wheat is usu
ally sown tho last of February or
early in March, lie ha9 plenty of
work to do, and hard work at that.
No chance to make money escapes
him. The first year or two is al
most invariably one of hardships
and privations for tho average home
steader. The weak or shiftless ones
usually give way in despair and turn
eastward. The resolute ones stay,
and soon have comfortable homes.
No young man should go West un
less he is prepared to work hard in
the face of many difficulties. Ex.
Be Careful in CIioonIus; Your

One of the most endearing con
nections with this life is to know
that we have friends whom we have
tried and can trust. Such friendR
are very scarce, and, perhaps, rarer
still are those pcoplo who know or
are capable of judging when they
have such friends. Our characters
are formed for good or bad from the
company we keep. Confidence in
our power to refrain from the vices
of others too often inveigles us iuto
the risk of mingling with associates
whom we know to be our inferiors
both mentally and morally. The
daily influence of such company will
blind us to what we know to be
wrong, and wo are unconsciously
led into acting in such a manner as
we would have formerly condemn
ed. In forming friendships avoid these
lower types, and let your mode of
living be directed by comparing
your daily actions with tho standard
of what you conscientiously consid
er morally right. Beware of the
two - faced mau. A slur coming
from one that, is supposed to be
your friend carries with it more de
struction than many things equally
untruthful from every known ene
my you have. You had better make
such men your outright enemies
rather than have them continue as
your apparent friends. .Simply ig
nore them and waive all combat
iveness with them ; that is, so far
as your intuitively revengeful na
nature will allow. JV. Y. Ledger.
Get n. Home.
We would have every true man
build for himself a home, be it ever
so humble iu its beginning. Indus
try and frugality and good judg
ment will mako it the most lovely
spot on earth. The man without a
home is like a sojourner without a
country. The richest, happiest and
best man in the wide world is he who
has a pretty, comfortable home of
his own, a family iu good health and
owes no man a cent, even though
hiseutirc worldly possessions would
not sell for a thousand dollars, and
though he has never held so high an
office as town constable or road
master. We sometimes feel constrained to
doubt whether a. man without a
borne can at best be an iudiflerent
patriot. He can not feel that inter
est in other people's real prosperity
that ho feels in his own, aud without
such prosperity wo could have no
country worth a name. Ho would
scarcely care to risk hi3 life in de
fense of the hearthstone of his land
lord, but let that hearthstone be his
own, and woe to tho invader who
should threaten it with desecration.
The homes of tho people are the
strength of the state. Build them,
beautify them, own them and be
happy.
This is the fair deduction from
boats of instances aud is the true
philosophy of home making and
home owing.
Married Women' Nlavery.
In what respect is the condition
of many a married womau better
than a slavf ? She works hard year
after year, and has a roof over her
head, and she is provided with food ;
so is the slave. She must beg her
"master" for a little pittauce with
which to buy clothing for herself
and children. The slave master
looks after such wants of his chattels
without the asking. She has no
freedom or independence ; she daro
not get a single article at tho store
until she gets tho consent of the
tyrant whom the civil law has made
her lumbaud. She can have no will
about even household affairs that
her husband disapproves of; she is
a slavo in both body and mind dur
ing his life, aud at his death if she
survives him, she cannot, under the
unjust and tyrannical laws of nearly
all countries of tho world, sell the
property which she has helped to
accumulate, nor control her own
children without employing a law
yer and getting a special permission
from the court. Iowa Slate lie
vortcr. General Sherman advised the ca
dets at West Point not to "look
down on citizens," and some of the
newspapers take groat credit to
themselves for discovering much
wisdom and patriotism in the ad
vice. But after all it wouldn't seem
to ordinary citizeus a matter of any
consequence whether the cadets look
down or up on them, and as for the
cadet, if he looks at a citizen at all,
he will be obliged to adopt whatev
er obliquity of vision the circum
stances demand, or be cross-eyed.
Probably old "Tecump" merely in
tended to convey to the cadets tho
advico that they should tolerate cit
izens, because they are useful iu
paying taxes out of which the army
appropriation is made, and the citi
zen should likowiso bo advised to
tolerate the cadet, because ho may
one day bo useful in a Uto dispute
or to stop the bullet of an impulsive
Cheyenne, though ho appears to be
of little account iu garrison quarters.
But in this country aud ago people
that "look down" on other people,
are very harmless lunatics, indeed,
and tho sufferers are not numerous.

James Redpath the lecturer, says
that Capt. Boycott was one of the
most brutal and foul - mouthed
agents in Western Ireland. He
compelled his tenants to stand bare
headed when he passed, and never
addressed a poor man without an
oath. Redpath agrees with Boycott
that Ireland needs emigration, but
says it should be emigration of
landlords.
It is related of a certain minister

question: "And what shall I ask
more?" A voice from tho congre
