THE DEM' ST. THURSDAY JULY 14. 1681. Hot. FrkHirTtEvar4 for TrU 4eit Garleld. - P Tort TrltMjsa. Sta F. IL H&rd, who wm Democratic member of the last Congress, cam from Toledo oi Sunday night and all day ye terday he wai down town, traveling up and down from bulletin-board to bulletin board, studying the latest news and try ing to draw conclusions from conflicting toriea. lie talked in a very feeling man ner on the step of the Astor Hous to a Tribune reporter: "I sappose," he said, "that this is the first time in my lif that I ever sympa thized with James A. Garfield. We have alway been opposed in politics; I sym pathize with Mr. Conkling in the present fight with the President, believing that th President is wrong according to the Constitution; yet my personal feeling and regard for Garfield are such that I feel his misfortan to be a personal woe. He was so generous an "opponent so warm and free and liberal in his relations to his political foes; so considerate of the feeling of younger members of the House, at least while I served in the same body, that no man could fail to admire and love him. It happened once that I a young member was called npon to close on the Democratic side a debate, which Mr. Garfield was to close the next morn' ins on behalf of the Republicans. I felt the responsibility; I was extremely anx ious to make a reply which would do credit to myself and not disgrace my party; and I went to Garfield that night and pointed out my dilemma. I did not feel equal to the occasion of making an impromptu response to a speech which he waa- fully' prepared to make. Like, the man that he is like a brother, I might say he told me what ha was go ing to say, the whole line of his argument, and thus gave me the benefit of twenty- four hours' study in which to reply to him. You can understand my admira tion, my love, my anxiety for that man." "I stumped my State against him last year," Mr. Hurd continued, but I never once said "829" or Credit Mobilier. James A. Garfield may have been misled and deceived in that matter, but from my knowledge of the man I feel that he was never guilty of a dishonest or un generous impulse." , "What is likely to be the course of a new administration, if Mr. Garfield died?" "A Democratic opinion would be of little value," he replied. . "But I will say this, that I think you newspapers are greatly mistaken in your estimates of Mr. Conkling. I lived at the same hotel with him for years, and I found him un Qbstrusive without being reserved, social and pleasant, and there was nothing about. him of the arrogance of temper manent and conduct I see attributed to him." SHOOTING AT PRESIDENT JACK SOX X- . How a Crazy Man Attempted to AssasS' , : . toate "Olds Hickory.' . Two serious public attacks were made upon Andrew Jackson during the last tour years of his Presidoncy, viz: those by Lieut. Randolph and a man by the name of Lawrence. And it is this last to wbicn reference is ruaue as neing in a remarkable degree similar to that made upon President Garfield on Saturday, the similarity existing not in the characters or disposition of the two Presidents, but in the character of the would-be assassins, and their methods, The President and his Cabinet were present in the Capitol with official formality on January 30, 1833, to join both Houses of Congress and a numerous body of -citizens in cere monies held in honor of a deceased mem ber of the Houso from South Carolina. The usual ceremonies had been conclud ed, and the' President accompanied by Messrs. Woodbery and Dickson, had crossed the great rotunda and were about to step out on the portico when a man emerged from the crowd and advanced toward the President. When within eight feet of him he drew a pistol and aiming it at the President pulled the trigger before he was aware of the man's intention. By a myracle, apparently, the cap missed fire, when the man drew another pistol and attempted to fire it. A second time the cap missed fire and Jackson rushed at his assailant and dis armed him. Unfortunately for Presi dent Garfield the pistol of Guiteau was sure and prompt and did its work more effectively than did that of the assailant of President Jackson. The man was at once secured and he gave his name as Lawrence. He conducted himself with the same cool indifference that has marked Guiteau 's behaviour since his ar rest, and gave much the same excuses saying ho was deprived of his employ ment, and felt it incumbent on him to put the President out ofthe way by assassin ation, as he regarded the Presideut as the cause of his own troubles and the politi cal entanglements. The man was takqn to jail and his history and connections sought out when it was determined that he was a lunatic on the subject and fixed :u hid determination to kill the supposed auther of the difficulties mentioned. . In his cell he remained tranquil and un concerned as to the final result. After due legal and medical proceedings Law rence was finally Committed' to an asy lum. Miss Martineau, who was an oye witness of the attempted assassination, gives a graphic description of the affair and its public effect in her "Retrospect of Western Travel." y love Tour Neighbor.
