while Guiteau's brain may be softening
his "cheek" is not mellowing a particle.

It is rumored that Emma Abbott is

There were twenty-eight deaths from

The Baltimore Gazette (Democratic)
has been ourchased bv a company for
about $50,000, and will be under the
management of Mr. W. B. Hezelton
former manager of the American, (Re
publican.) Exactly what the prosecution in the
Guiteau trial is aiming at in showing
that Guiteau didn't pay his board bills

ed it good evidence sot a sound mind to
beat a boarding house keeper.

The Valley Virginian, Republican,
says that there was a tacit understand

Kentucky is in a prosperous condi
tion. She owes only $180,394, and has
cash in bank and turnpike stock esti
mated at $708,133. The State tax is 45

attendance was: White 61,339, colored
72,119. Total 133,458. The average

Rainey, colored, whom the Republi
cans when they were in a minority in
Congress ran for clerk, concluded he
would try his luck again when the Re
publicans had it in their power to elect
him, but McPherson walked in and
knocked down Rainey's persimmons,
and now, no doubt, Rainey has discov
ered that his white Republican friends
are not anxious to give posts of honor
and profit to the colored man and
brother. Whan they couldn't give him
the clerkship they would, but when
they could they wouldn't, uneyare
loud in their prof essions of friendship
for the colored man, but when it comes
to placing him in positions of promi
nence there is a sudden stop to the in
terest they feel. As a voter the colored
man is a capital fellow, but as an office
holder and sharer in the spoils of vic
tory he is not quite so capital.

"Washington, Dec. o. Guiteau was

than usual, and court was not opened

The present prosperity of New Or
leans is attested by the increase in the
values of real estate and the large
amount of building done the pasfrseason
and now in progress. At no time since
the close of the war has there been such
a building boom, which includes splen
did business' houses, palatial residences
and extensive manufacturing establishments.
'Greensboro is having high hopes on
the purchase of the Cape Fear and
Yadkin Valley Railroad by the compa
ny which Dr. Canedo represents. The
extension of that road as proposed by
the parties who offer to purchase, will
give the "City of Flowers" short and
direct connection with the great West,
and will no doubt prove of vast benefit
to her.
nntil eleven o clock. An immense
crowd had gathered on the side walk
and when Guiteau alighted from the
van he evipced unusual trepidation and
begged the officers to take hito around
to the back entrance. He was assured
that the escort was ample for his safety
and with trembling steps and cringing
gait he quickly shuffled through the
angry crowd. Abject fear was depic
ted upon his sallow countenance, and it
was several minutes after he reached
his room before he regained his usual
composure.
Ex-Speaker Randall appeared in an
swer to a subpoena but was at a loss to
know why he had been, summoned.
Immediately after the opening of
court Scoville called to the stand Dr.
James Kennon of Chicago.
Before any questions could be asked,
the witness, Guiteau. desired to ad
dress the court, and without waiting
the assent, or dissent of the court, said
in a quick, nervous way, "I want ,these
expert witnesses to pass upon this
point. Where a man is impelled to do
an unlawful act by a power which he
can not possibly control, or overrule
and by which his moral agency is domi
nated, is he to be considered sane or in
sane V ,
. Jndffe Cox. "We will have that ques-
stion discussed."
The witness said he was managing
editor of the Chicago Medical Review
and a lecturer upon mental diseases at
the Chicago medical schools. He deliv
ered his first lecture last April. The
witness replied to a hypothetical ques
tion predicated upon the trustworthi
ness of evidence to which he had listen
ed, that he had no doubt of the prison
er's insanity.
The witness admitted that when a
man committed a crime while acting
under the direction of Divine inspira
tion and then conducted himself pre
cisely as a criminal would do it would
be presumptive evidence against his
insanity.
Guiteau. who had been quietly, but
intently, following the witness, here
broke in rather excitedly saying, "Noth
ing of the kind in this case, Judge 1"
Davidge "Well, we will see."
Guiteau, angrily "You're going too
fast in this matter, we want facts, not
your judgment; the witness has stated
one ining ngnwine Aiora. injects toe
inspiration and then lets man use his
own judgment to work it out." Thaf s
just my case; that's the way I got my
inspiration, lne L.ora aon t employ
fools to do His works ; he gets the best
material."
Davidge then put a still stronger hy
pothetical case, using the term, "Like
a common vulgar criminal."
Guiteau turned to Davidge and with
an air of immense superiority said:
"There's nothing vulgar about this case,
it's all high-toned." Laughter quick
ly suppressed by the court.
The witness thought an insane man
in carrying out an inspiration lyouid
act according to his peculiarities of
manner & temperament, although there
were types of insanity where a man's
general character became changed. He
gave the scientific name.

opinion that he was esceedrngly ill
balanced, cranky and egotistie.
The witness was asked what he
thought of the prisoner'g speech, "firar
field vs. Hancock," and replied that in
his opinion it was a ridiculous disjoint
ed affair. .
Guiteau, who had smiled complacent
ly when the witness came upon the
stand, became veryjmuch incensed and
shouted out, " Well, it wasn't anything
of the kind. You dont know what you
are talking about. My speech received
the endorsement of the best men in the
country."
The witness resumed by saying the
prisoner seemed to be a perfect nuis
ance about the rooms, but was inter
rupted by Guiteau, who stated:
"You were a nuisance vourself. I'd
rather be hung as a man than acquitted
as a fool, and I won't have any more of
this kind of evidence."- -The
witness added, "He was talking
BLOCK so xar as ns .couia see.
Guiteau beeans greatly enraged, and
turning to Scoville, shouted: "If you
put any more of these crank fellows on
the stand I'll score you again. : It wasja
great piece of ; impudence on your part
to put Judge Davis on the stand with
out consulting me."
