I tf. Kmtj lut Thursday I to provide for the performance of the I . r.reTuV i ,. duties of the Presidential office in the vent of the removal, death, resignation or inability of the President : Be it enacted, etc That section 140, title 3, of the Revised Statutes is here by repealed. . Section a. In case of toe removal, death, resignation or InabUity of both the President and Vice-President of the United States the Secretary of - t m .v.. .1 M . klfii , If Tn,rA M no ut,r, r.nn uia ohcismi- i i i nit:hr fWrAtarT of State nor Secretary of the Treasury then the Sec retary of War for the time JbeiM shall act as President until the disability be removed or a President be elected m the manner and at the time provided In the constitution and laws, or, in case there be no occasion under the law for an election, until the existing term of office ef the President so removed, re signed, dead or disabled shall have expired. This is very well, as far as u goes, but it only partially meets the case, ror i it leaves the question of inability an open one, and undefined. During tne sickness of President Garfield the ques tion of what constituted inability was considerably discussed, some taking one view, others another, and all this time, from thewshooting till the death of the President, the country was practically witheut a President, Mr. Garfield not being able to perform the duties of the office, and Mr. Arthur in doubt as to his right to administer in his place. Some insisted that according to the let ter and spirit of the constitutional pro vision in the premises, Mr. Arthur should at once have entered upon the duties of the office when President Garfield was shot, and so incapacitated from the performance of the duties de volving upon him, while others held that the stricken President was not legally in a condition of inability, as contemplated by the act There was no authority to decide, and consequently the government ran along without any President, practically speaking. This should not be so. The law gov erning the case ought to be so defined that thnre could be no dispute as to what is meant by inability, and no doubt as to when, in a case of this kind, the Vice-President may rightfully as sume the duties of the office of Presi dent INFORMING HIS SISTER A telegram has been sent from St Paul, Minnesota, to District Attorney Corkhill, detailing the statement of a servant girl who lived in Mr. Scoville's family at Chicago, that the family knew of Guiteau's contemplated assassina tion of the President She had heard it talked about in the family. The story goes that Guiteau wrote to his sister, Mrs. Scoville, announcing his purpose, and that she telegraphed to her husband mho was absent at tbe time, and some ' distance from railroad, so that the tele grams were somewhat delayed in reach ing him. He returned to Chicago and arrived there about the time the news of the assassination sped over the coun try. Without going home he started immediately for Washington, but did not anticipate being confronted with such a calamity. Had he been at home when his wife received the letter an nouncing tbe intention to assassinate on the 2nd of July he could have tele graphed for the arrest of his brother-in-law and defeated his purpose. TAKINU A OLOOIIT YIEW OF IT, The Norfolk Landmark, referring to the defeat of Daniels in Virginia and the apprehension of similar results in other Southern States, discourses thus: The revolution foreshadowed at Ap pomattox really began with the defeat of John W. Daniel, and from all quar ters we see evidences of the truth of this opinion. In the Carolina, Tennes see, and Mississippi the elements of disintegration are at work, and in Geor gia the struggle is already beginning. Mr. GartrellTntends to head the negroes and wrest the Stateif he can from those now in power. All this means commotion, trouble, loss of money, and loss of tranquility, and the immediate future for the South is by no means cheering. A good deal of history is to be made and unmade, and the more the tumult the less the profit This is a gloomy forecast consider ably too gloomy. All these political combinations mean simply an effort of certain politicians to get on top, and are not likely to result in any very serious consequences to tbe South. Under the mortification of defeat some of the Vir ginia Democrats are prone to view the situation with a dispondent eye, and magnify a little squall into a cyclone. We publish to-day from the Boston Herald, a notice of the meeting of the Best-Boston syndicate, at which Mr. Best gave a statement of the progress of the North Carolina Midland railroad, which was followed with a brief speech from Governor Vance, who accompa nied him to Boston, in which he ex pressed the opinion that the Best-Boston syndicate might ultimately succeed In gaining possession of the Western North Carolina road, but did not state exactly how it was to be done. Robert Bloskie, who has recently died in Indiana, was so fond of dog meat that it was about the only meat be ate for nine years. His family like it too. If an abundance of dog meat be any inducement we could supply a very large colony of Bloskies in North - Carolina, and still have curs enough left to eat up thousands of sheep annu- PoatmasUr-General James, who at one Ume was a printer.' while at the At lanta exposition, going Into the printing denartmenttook ap "stick" and set these words, "New opportunities teach dntlea Atlanta.

The persons respon sible for the safety of the theatre neg lected to use the means for telegraph ing the fire engine stations, which they had at their disposal. The audience were consequently left for ten minutes struggling wildly in the darkness for means of exit. The life-saving brig ade then arrived with ladders and torches and jumping-sheets. The per nor!- a&Yea wlin Uie aiu oi mo buccw iumped from ye windows by the doz en at a time. In an hour ana a nan the whole building was a roaring furn ace. Persons whose bodies were first recovered seemed to have died mostly from suffocation, but other bodies pre sented a shocking spectacle. Many have heads or feet burned off. At this hour, 9 a. m, the fire is still burning, and it is not expected that it will be extineuished for some time. Up I hare been conveyed to tne nospitai. The loss of life is now estimated at 200 to 300. Vienna, Evening The building is still on fire to-night. The funeral of the victims is fixed for Sunday. The Imperial family have contributed largely to the relief fund. The mana gers of all the theatres here announce special performances for the benefit of tho snnerers. The number of persons actually re puted to be missing is 609. In regard to the origin of the fire the superintendent of machinery states that the scenery was ignited, as the lamps were lit by the electric current. Searches show that the upper gal lery must have fallen into the pit . . where tne only remains iouna are small fragments of bone. Beyond doubt 900 gallery tickets had been is sued. One hundred holders of these are known to have jumped from the windows. Competent judges fear that the loss of life will be found to be fully 700. Nothing has been heard of the members of the orchestra. The subscriptions raised on the bourse now amount to 28,000 pounds. All newspapers have opened subscrip tion lists. The Emperor has given a large sum. The officials of tbe theatre state that it was absolutely impossible to lower the iron curtain, owing to the frightful rapidity with which the flames spread. London, Dec. 10. Additional details from the Vienna fire have been re ceived as follows: On the arrival of the fire-brigade it was found impossible to penetrate beyond the first tier of the theatre, the rush of suffocating smoke and air extinguishing the lamps and torches. The firemen retired under the momentary impression, because their shouts were not answered, that there were no more people in the theatre. Those who escaped on the first alarm, however, soon undeceived them and another effort was made to penetrate the parts of tbe theatre not ac tually blazing. In the narrow passage between the second and third galleries a mass of corpses was discovered, some so closely interlocked that it was hard ly possible to part them. The first man discovered was got out alive, but all tbe rest were dead. Those persons had lost their way in consequence of the turning off of the gas, which it is now ascertained, was done by some ir responsible person, with a view to pre vent an explosion. Some of the men were found with their hands grappling each other's throats. Subsequent inves tigations showed that in some cases persons finding escape hopeless had committed suicide. It is stated by sur vivors that women were seen to throw their children from tbe galleries into the pit At the time of the outbreak of the flames the galleries especially allott ed to the ladles were f ulL Among the missing are young Count Sigismund Festititis and several other students from the Private MilUtary College. About 10 o'clock the gasometer ex ploded, the roof fell and the whole place was reduced to a wreck. Shocking Work, ef m Flu If en? Pltta bnrg TOT-nty-Flr Lire I4as In sv Barnlag- Building;.

Hubbard, of this town, recently nar rated these particulars to our reporter: More than two years ago, my wile was attacked wjtjj Betailo Rheumatism or pain In the right limb, and It be came rery severe. Pains would eommense In the hip and extend to the knee, and down to the foot. Just as soon as she would retire for the nlghb It would become far more sere re, breaking up her rest, inducing sleeplessness, end making her slek. We employed the best medical help In the city. In the course ef medication, a severe attack of bleedlnc at the nose resulted, lasting about four hours, which nearly cost her life. Nothing pro duced any permanent benefit Finally she was Induced to tryt Jacobs Oil, and when she had used one fifty cent bottle of It, she was entirely re lieved of the pains and rested Quietly and easily. After three months, feeling slight symptoms of the complaint returning, she procured another bot tle, nstng which oecasslonally. keeps her tree from 11 pain. I would rather pay five dollars a bottle than have her suffer as formerly. PREMATURE LOSS OF THE HAIR May be entirely prevented by the use of BUR NETTS COOOAINX.
