A. Good ItemThe Excitement At tending the Assassination of the President North Carolina Official Heads Under the Axe, Ac. Washington, July 2, 1881. To the Editor ol The Observer: On Monday night last we were stirred up by a storm of wind and rain which did much damage. The greatest de struction was through the centre of the city. Beautiful shade trees were uprooted and many were badly dam aged. About 200 houses were unroofed and some 1.400 shade trees blown down Four hundred street lamps were bro ken. The city hall is so damaged that several of the court rooms nave been abandoned. The building is not con sidered safe. The worst of all is that we are not permitted to rest. A local weather prophet who claims to have predicted the last storm says that on the 4th and 5th of July our city will be visited by a terrible storm of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, which will be a giant as compared with the last one. At this point in my letter I was bro ken off by tbe flying rumor that The President is killed, the President is dead." At first the words fell on my ears without producing any effect. Then came the excitement and nervous feeling which suddenly overcomes one when face to face with some over whelming calamity. I went to the street, and as in a panic or army stam pede. I involuntarily moved with the crowd towards the Baltimore and Po tomac depot. No one seemed to know anything except that the President had been shot The surging mass about the depot building wa3 immense and kept increasing until it was. known the President had been carried on in an ambulance to the White House. -You will ,of course, long before this letter reaches you. have had the full particu lars. Up to this time there is no infor mation in the possession or tne public concerning Garfield's condition, which is in any way satisfactory. The first bullet hit him in the right arm and the second in the side just above the hip. It is now said that the bnllet which en tered the side has been traced and found lodged near the spine. Also that it passed through the liver. Thiais considered generally a fatal wound. Few cases of recovery recorded, Internal hemorrhage and inflammation, as a usual thing in such cases, are un avoidable, and aeatn is sure to ionow. The President has a vigorous constitu tion, and is well prepared physically to wrestle with death, liis recovery from the shock makes his case very hopeful. He is surrounded by his cabinet and xiends. The assassin, uuitteau, is lodged in iail. He has been here for some months seeking a consular appointment. He has for many weens uvea oy moving from one boarding house to another without paying his bills. Last week he forced himself into the President's audience room , and made himself so offensive that the President had him put out He is evidently of unsound mind, and having been driven to des peration by failure to get omce com mltted trie awiul aeea. Many are of the opinion that he intended to shoot Blame, but there is nctie iounaaijpn for that. Mrs.. Garfield reached here from Long Branch Saturday night, and WBuv lmuiBUiaycmjf w vuo J-iGBiueutiD bedside. She bore the trial bravely. She was allowed but a few minutes in- verview. After her withdrawal she broke down and gave vent to her great grief. All Pfcbnc business will be prac tically suspended until tne recovery or the President Should he die. General Arthur will become President, and quite a revolution in the personel of the administration win iouow. Tne pres- ent cabinet would be replaced nJ Grant-Conkling cabinet and theanti Conkling people would of course have to take hack seats and suck their thumbs for the balance of the term. Should Garfield and Arthur both die before December, the country would be in a aueer situation. There is neither a President ro rem. oi tne senate nor a Sneaker of the House," the only offi cers wno bv tne constitution couid serve as President nhtil the place could be filled by the people. A change of administration now would Drobablv be worse for the radical office holders in North Carolina, than Garfield, although it seems that on Thursday last he ana maine oxeo up the North Carolina State as well as that of other States. My informant says a radical change was agreed on -in your State. E. B.

' Dr. Mott was here last treek very much disturbed about the attitude of the department towards him on the 'ttmperance inELerirpa anx ious to resign i if- hey-c4uld fret Tom JooTJr appointed Jin hla place; oThlsr he cannot do as the Administratloa de that no friend of his should get the place. Mott is very objectionable to Blaine, and Cooper made a Grant record at Chicago which kills him with this administration. J. W. Bowman, of Mitchell, is now prominently talked of for Mott's place. He is said to be an applicant tor it. xne otner names are Judge Furches, H. C. Cowles, David A' Jenkins, T. J. Dula, Judge Henry and Col. V.S.Lusk. 6fB Mai. Yeates has taken up his resi dence here. He will practice law. He tells me that he regards the Eepubhcan party as entirely broken up-n North Carolina, and nothing can now save it. This is good news, and is just my opin ion of the situation. Col. J. E. Boyd is here,. looking after his business with the department of justices. He says he if -a good anti- prohibitionist at nome,fc;ut here he sings low on that tune asjthis is a cru sade country. i . The nrst of J uiy orougnt many dis missals from the departments. The cases of hardships are numerous. Men with families depending on their sup port are dropped from the rolls and sent adrift on 4he World -without a dol lar. Years spent in a department un fits a man for any business, and gets him entirely outside of any business connections or influences. There should be hung over eaoh department notice to clerks that "he who enters here leaves hope behind." It is a very remarkable fact that when the time far weeding out comes, that the young and handsome lady clerks who have con gressional friends to back them are not disturbed. North Carolina has its share of pretty women scattered around in the departments backed by mem bers of Congress. I do not mean that they are all North Carolina ladies ; few of them are. I was told by.an appoint ment clerk the other day that the new radical North Carolina Hubbs of New berne does not seem to drop into the old line of pressing ladies for places ; but uses all his eloquence and to get in negroes. He has a row on his hands now with his constituents. The first man he had appointed was Osborn Hun ter of Raleigh. He got him a place in the Interior Department last April. In the same department are Claude Smith, a son of Wm. A Smith, and Wilmot Leach, a sou of the General. They were both appointed as Republicans. l was surprised to learn that Judge Settle vouched for Wilmot as a Bepu lican. Such is life. Occasional Bogus Orggakers at war!

CLOTHIERS II TAILORS ! ! ! -:0: :0: TIE I INDSORETTE SCARF How a Wife Spoiled Her Husband ' Fishing: Ecurvion Chicago Tribune. At 8 o'clock the other morning a wife followed her husband down to the gate as be was starting for down town, and kindly said to him ; "William, you know how sadly meed a blue bunting dress." "Yes, dear, he remarked, "but you know how hard up I am. As soon as I can see my way clear you shall have the dress, and a new hat to boot. Be Eatient, be good, and your reward shall e great." Forty minutes after that he emerged from a restaurant with a big basket and a fish pole, bound np the river. In the basket was a chicken, pickles, cake, fruit, pie and a bottle of liquid of a rich color, and he was just lighting a twen ty cent cigar when his wife came aW. . "What! you here? he exclaimed. "Yes, I am going to the maket. "Where are you going what a in the basket?" "I was going to carry this fish-pole around to a friend on Jefferson ave nue," he modestly answered. "And that basket r "This basket well I was going to take it to the orphan asylum as a pres ent to the children, It is a donation from six leading citizens. 11 juiaui, x uuu u ucijc i c ii. Sh Don't talk so loud," "William, I shall talk louder yet!" she exclaimed. "I'll bet you are going a-fjshing." "Mary, have I ever deceived you i he plaintively asked. "I never have. As proof of my sincerity you can take this basket to the asylum yourself." "And I'll do it," she pvomplyt replied, as she relieved him of it." "Mary, hatful you "No, fiir, I hadn't ! You'd better hur ry up with that flsh-pole, as the man may want it, and be careful how you stand around in the hot sun." She left him there. He watched her take the car for home, and then he re turned the fish-pole and crossed the street, and said to an acquaintance: "Tom, I'm suffering with neuralgia, and the excursion is off till next week. Too bad, but we can never tell what a day may bring forth " There was chicken, and pickles and other good things on the table at din ner, but he never smiled. Even when his wife wished she was an orphan, if that was the way they were fed, he never betrayed the gloom in his heart. It was only when she handed him the bottle he had so carefully tucked into the basket, and he saw it labelled "Good for Little Children," that he said: "Mary, it is an af ul thing for a wife to get tne impression that her husband is a cold-blooded liar." "It must fee fihei replied, as she took the ether ehickea leg. 4 4 Something Entirely New. STYLES IN ONE A Lot of Boys' and Children's Cassimere Suits, AT REDUCED PRICES. L. BERW ANGER & BRO.
