THE PRESIDEN ‘4is Action on New York Nomi- nations No Surprise to His Friends. To Is Determined to Harmonize, if Possible, All the Republican Factions, Gen. Garfield Alono Responsiule to the Pooplo for tho Administration of the Presidency. And Why Should 1é Surrondor His Powors Unconditionally to Sen- ator Oonkling? Speetat Correspondence of Tie Chicago THbune, Cr BASD, On March 20—The tara in the New York nominations was no surprise tothe friends of Gen. Garfield who knew Jim best, Tdave talked with a good many of them bere, and thoy all say that they e: pected something of that sort, Gen. Garfielt has n desire to unite the Republican party, putdoes not propose to do so by conceding everthing to one side. “Won't Conk!ng fight Judge Robertson's appointinent?” T asked of a prominent Fed- eral oficeholder yesterday, “Inimy opinion he will not,” was tho ane swel. “TTe don’t want to seo him confirmed, docs he?” “By no means. But, whilo that ts so, he fs smart enough not todo what he knows will not be backed up by the country at Inrge, to aeortain extent at least. ‘Tha beauty about Judge Rohertson’s appolntiuent ts, that he is BUCIE AN EXCELLENT MAN for that or any other place. Huis as ‘nearly above reproach as any man can well be In this world. Conkling made the felt against Ilnyes’ action in the removal of Cornell and Arthur because ho claimed, and was able to make 9 good many people believe, that they were jrood ofileers, But whut could he say fn a fight against Judge Robertson? Simply thint he is uot one of his men; that he was opposed to the unitrula at Chicago, Even thig is ono of tho strongest arguments with the country at large why he should be ap- pointed, ‘Then, if there should bo auy howl from tho Conkling wing of the party, the pub- lle nt large would say that there was a ulspo- aitlon to ho all tho offices, They enn seo that tho other offices are filled with Conk- Ing’s men, and feel that this is enough. No,—I think Conkling will not op- pose Tobertson’s confirmation; and, even if ho should, 1 believa there aro pleuty of Democrats who would jotn with tho Republicans to confirm him without dimculty. Ono thing thata good many peo- ple will find out before long fs, that Presi- dent Garfield, and not ‘Tom or Dick, is Presi- dent. Henlone ls responsible to the people for the administration of tha ofice, nnd he is willing to go to the people WIT THE DEST ITE CAN DO. Tam In receipt of tne following letter from one of the most Intimate personal friends of the President; and, while it wasn personal etter, and not intended for publication, L take the ttberty of printing a portén of it, L will not give the writer’s residence or name, but will simply say that he is but recently from Washington, and knows both the feel- ing at the White Houso and in the Senate: “You and {were present, dear friend, at Mentor on that memorable 2 of November night, when the returns and personal tele- grams had poured In upon the walthg group, and remember, when the result was at last assured, several hours past mldnight, and it was known who the next Presidcnt was to be, how asad and solemn ‘aspeet took the place of the one of anxiety upon the coun 0 tenance of the General, and he sails not feel exultant over this result, weight of THE OVERMASTERING RESPONSHMULITY simply rests down upon me, [begin to feel what this all means, Loum gratified at tho result, and I shall try not to sliirle the re svonsibilities’ From that moment to tlits he has felt this same feeling, He has tried to see all sides of the various complicated qnes- tions that have come before liim for solution, Hiv saw, aud conscientiously Istened to, every. ‘iliow who caine elther to bulldoze orto beg. Me sent for some men whom he wanted to see, and advised with them, Ife kept up a great, hard thinking all this time, and he gathered un amount of In- formation In regurd to the fe , hones, desires, and aspirations of the yarlous fac tions of lis party In vuarlous seetions of the rountry that no other statesman ever hid, ile was prepared for the work ho had before Aim on arriving at Washington, in away that no other man ever wus, He sacrificed some strength in his Cabinet to unity, He was willing to do this, and for tho country at Jorge it was well that he should. All agree thut he obtained a good Cabinet, though not the most brilliant constellation of gentus that could have been chosen, “Now that he Is well seated In_his Presi- dential chair, he is going on fn the same FEAMLESS, INDEPENDENT, STRAIGITFOR- WARD WAY that made him so much of & success asa Representative trom tho old Nix nth Dis- tries We allremember how, when once called upon to explain a certain thing he had done in Congress, he came home and inet the nominating convention, and told the dele- ates there assembled that he had. acted In Aig matter according to his own best suds went, Ho might have erred in. this; there Wis roon for difference of opinion in that, The had been elected and placed in hts. oftica to do the best he could according to hls own judgment. Atleast bo had so taken for wranted, Ho had acted as best he knows and, if tho convention did not feel Uke sus- taliing him in nn indupendent course, they would tinyo to look up mother man. ‘hint sentiment, so much differant from what was exnected, pleased the oll Western Reserve - elomen| "the great ng you remember, mud they renominated him avelamation, and continued to renoninate ln through thick and thin, and elected him too for nia successive tines, When ho was elected Senator he disliked to forsake dis old district, but he thought many would consider him churlish if hedid not, and sohe consented. “ Now, the bearing of all this is that Gen. Garfield bs A MUCH MONE INDEPENDENT MAN ¢ than many people bave taken lim to be, Blany people are unable to understand how a uinn inay be courteous and plonsant, and use everybody well, and still, when the dine comes, overruly everything they linve sald or asked for. Many peoplo seem to think that Amman inust elther bens rough 03 0 bear, or, If he ds gentiemanly he must be weak, Some of these peaple will have a chance to seu thelr mistake ti that particular, if thoy haya Not already done so, ft seems strange that the President's action should create any sure prise, too, when it is fully considered, It Was soveral months ago that the President announced his purpose in’ regard to the Republicans of New York. Moe fas always been perfectly — frank, Open, and mauly tn everything he had to offer on the ‘subject. We sud ho should uke an effort to harmonize all iaetions there; that he certalnly should recognize alls and aliould TRY TO MEAL OFD wornns asmuch ag lay In his power, Nutwithstand- Aug ull this, thers wero plenty of people who Went on making the assertion that the entire Federal patronage of tho State was to by pit dnto the hands of Senator Conkling, What Tollyt Te was talcing it for granted ‘that the head of the greatest political party in the Western world tnd not the instinct conan to the lowest aniinal—the instinct of self preservation.

We review, in our various pampblets, the manifold benefits to be derived from Pulvermacher's Appliances, and bring for- ward testimony In their favor from the most learned physicians and scientific men in Eu- rope and this country, We also demonstrate why relief and cure accrue from their use after every other plan of treatment has failed, Reader, are you afflicted and wish to recover the same degree of heaith, strength, and energy as experienced in former years? Donny of the following symp- toms, or class of symptoms, meet your dis- ensed condition? Are you suffering from ill-health in any of its many and multifarl- ous forms, consequent on a lingering, nerv- ous, chronic, or functional disease? Do you feel nervous, debilitated, fretful, timid, and lack the power of will and action? Are you subject to. loss of memory, lave spells of fainting, fullness of blood in the head, feel lstless, moping, unfit for business or pleas- ure, and subject to fits of melancholy? Are your kidneys, stomach, liver, or blood in a disordered conditlon? Do you suffer from rheumatism, neuralgia, or aches and pains? Haye indiscretions and excesses left you ina weak and debilitated condition? Are you timid, nervous, and forgetful, and is your mind continually dwelling on the subject? Havo yon lost confidence in yourself and energy for business pursuits? Are you subject to any of the following symptoms: Restless nights, broken sleep, nightmare, dreams, palpitation of the heart, bushful- ness, confusion of idens, aversion to society, dizziness in the head, dimness of sight, pim- ples and blotches on the face and back, and other despondent symptoms? There are thousands of young men, middle aged, and even the old, who suffer from nervous and physical debility, There are also thousands of females, broken down in health and spl its from’ disorders peculiar to thelr sox, and who, from falso modesty or neglect, prolong their sufferings, Why, then, further neg: lect a subject so productive of health and future happiness when thero fs at hand a means of cure?
