Houetty suggests a different courae. If drunkenness were to be considered an excuse for crime , I wonld discharge Jerome , but the law holds that drunkenness ig no ezcuae for an il'egal act.

Garfield and i.arty approached the city , it was an nounced by the firinz of cannon and shouts of the peoule. A platform car decorated with thcs and carpeted was backed up to the drawing-room car of the train and upon that Gen. Garfield stepped and was most enthu siastically received. After cheering had subsided , Gen Garfield , s-id : / have nothing to eny except this , I 'thank you for this cordial greeting. When I last passed thrown. Syracuas you were dubating whether you could not get rid of hard times by the use of priutmg press fiat money and repudi ation. But the people of Syracute Juve worked the way out by the peed old way , on the old road upon which Pod'a word is1 written , 'By the sweat of thy brow shall then earn thy bread.

Gen Garfield and party arrived ntthe Grand Central depot at 7-30 last evening ning- Long before that time an im mense crowd had asaetnbled in front of the depot , among which were over twenty Garfield ami Arthur district campaign clubs , woarin ; * white gloves und silk badges. On the pbttorm , where the train bearing Garfield and party drew up , was also a largo crowd composed of many prominent repub licans of this city. Great cheering erected the train aa it arrived , and Gen. Garfield , who was amen the first to alight , was warmly received by members of both the national and state committees. After considerable hand sluking the party walked to- waid the main entrance , when Geu. Garfield received another ovation raising his hat in acknowledgment and bowing to the multitude , who cheered until the party had entered carriages in waiting and were driven towards the Fifth Avenue Hotel.

After an absence from active pirticipa- tion in politics for twenty-four yeara , General John C. Fremont was last evening recaived by the republican central campaign club , at the Coleman - man house. The psrlow of the ho'el were fairly packed with visitors , and when Gen. Fremont arrived ho was heartily cheered. Gon. Fremont was ii.troducod to the audience and for some time wan busitd in shaking hands with about five hundred young men , who filed past him one by one. Gen. Fremont was then introduced aa the pioneer of the republican party. In rep nso the general returned thanks and said ho was proud that ho wrs remembered detp to the stirring scenes that had intervened. The repub lican party wis the party of progress , and though Webster aneeringly said that this country was but diasoverated fraRmeuta'cif a glorious republic , the party in the present campaign rested on its reputation. He was glad to see that measures , not men , formed the oeat plank in their platform and that the disgraceful system of publishing personal attacks on the characters of 100 candidates wonld cease. Suppose that a wealthy man of business should become impoverished by the lax con duct of his agent or steward whom ho discharged , and employed another man in his place. The second steward by hia talent and shrewdness brought Older out of chaos or built up the man's success to its original standard , was it likely that the man would dis charge the second steward , who had worked faithfully for him and replace the first steward in his stead. The republican party was the second steward , it had fulfilled its promuea and carried the country throcght a great war , paid foreign money duo and was even now studying cut o so lution of the tariff question. Ho was well pl = a rd with the nomination ot Garfitld and Arthur and wished them every success. Gen. Fremont at the close of his address was warmly ap plauded.

FASTING FOR FAME , The Man With an Iron Stomach Alive and Fee bly Kicking. Numerous Engagements Com ing in , Special Dispatch to The B a NEW YORK , August 4 4 p. m. Dr. Tanner is still suffisrinjr , but c n- fidcnt. Every precaution is now being - ing taken to avoid any unnecessary strain upon his remaining strength , and , although he is very feeb'e , it is generally believed ho will complete his fast , He has lost 32 pounds since the commencement of his task. One of the regular physicians on watch with him expresses the opinion that the fast would be accomplished , and that , too , without any serious injury to the fa'ter's heal'h. During last night Dr. Tanner had a serious vomiting turn and thre r off a considerrblo quanti'y of bile and mucuous , this caused him much pain , but ho went to sleep again without any apparent sign of exhaustion. Doctors generally believe ho will succeed iu fasting thb forty days , and pass their opinion on the condition of his temperature , pulse and respira tion. Tanner says he will never t y a forty day fast again , and the general opinion is that ho would fail if lit ) tried it , aa his two long fasts now itbout completed , have seriously af fected hia constitution. The fastar evidently appreciated the danger attaining such a long fast and from the manner in which he has occupied his mind ho has been preparing for any event. Tanner Digesting Himself. Sp d.M lii r > atch 'o the PKK NEW YOHKAugust 5,1 a m. The fasting Tanner seems to take delight in reciting instances of costly feats re corded in Roman history. On Satur day when the feat is ended , there will bo a grand banquet of fruit , milk and vegetables presided over by attend ant physicians. His condition is with out any change for the better. He is still very weak and irritable. Hii sufferings are great , although in the early days of the fa t he did his ut most to hide them. His will power ii wonderful , it is hia determination which ia carrying him safely through the remaining days of the task. Al though ho assumes an air of cheerful ness it is too plain that he is in a most pitible conditirn. Physicians employed on the wa'ch think his en feebled condition ia principally due to the use of mineral waters. Said a physician : "Thero is great causa fi r alirm. Dr. Tanner's stomach has probably lost its power of digesting. On Sunday morn , I am told , the fast er ejected something from his stomach ach which resembled a tissue of mem brane. If this Is true , it would show that his stomach is undergoing a sort of digestion caused by the effect of carbonic acid water , which , 1 am in f rmiid , has been taken contrary to the advice of his medicil watchers. This fa t is of no benefit to science , BO far as I can understand it never was intended for a scientific fast , besides - sides it has not been conducted in a scientific manner , and it is of no par ticular value to know that Tanner can fust forty days , nor is there any scien tific evidence that he fasted so long. Belief in the fast of cnurao , in that case.muat depend upon the confidence of the medical profession. " . ELECTRIC"BRIEFS. . Special dispatches tu The Ike. ST. PAUL , Minn. , August 4.
