of testimony, etc., in regard to expert

of the Treasury, nor can we see any
reason why the Secretary himself
should not be as anxious for it as any
one who advocates it. On the contrary
it is a rcflectionjon him to keep in posi
tion men charged with gros3 abuses
without making some effort to ascertain
the truth or falsity of these charges
when brought to his attention, as they
have been, thus publicly and forcibly
brought. He cannot afford to ignore
them unless willing to assume the re
sponsibility of the acts of his subordi
nates and share the censure which their
delinquency may call forth.
It is due to justice that an investiga
tion be made of these charges, either
under the resolutions, as contemplated,
or by special direction of the Treasury
Department, so that the truth may be
established and the guilty exposed and
the innocent vindicated.

Peter Ray who died last Saturday in

A curious suit for damages is to be

traced to the doctor who made the au
topsy, and he is now to be sued for
having stolen it.
BEGGING FOR FUNDS. :
Guiteau's petition for funds to enable
him to carry his case on in the courts
has been supplemented by a similat ap
peal from his counsel and brother-in-law,
Scoville. Scovillehas had a hard
time of it, an unenviable and a thank
less task, defending a poor, miserable
wretch who is looked upon with abhor
rence by all, doing it, too, from the love
he bears his wife, the sister of the con
victed criminal, who still clings to him,
though bloodstained, loathed and exe
crated, with a sister's and a woman's
devotion.
Mr. Scoville reveals a fact in the cor
respondence sent to Guiteau that does
no credit to those who participate in it.
The men who out of levity or malice
send him bogus checks, photographs of
the gallows, hangman's noose, and oth
er offensive testimonials are in truth
but little better than savages. These
taunt, gibe, humiliate, ridicule, torture
their manacled captive and dance a
war-dance around him before they fire
the fagots which are to consume the
victim, but civilized people do not act
that way. The savage knows no bet
ter, the man raised in a land where
civilization, intelligence and christian
izing influences prevail, should know
better. Guiteau is, and has been, in the
hand3 of the law, subject to its de
mands, has been tried in accordance
with its commands and provisions, and
by the verdict of twelve of his impar
tial fellow-citizens, found guilty of
marder, the penalty of which is death,
should there be no intervention. This
should satisfy even those who demand
more than justice vengeance and
should suppress the spirit that would
inflict unmanly insult and torture on
one, who, though base criminal he be, is
prostrate and powerless to resent. He
may be insane, and if so this trifling is
even worse, but, sane or insane, this
conduct towards him, coming from
grown men supposed to be in the pos
session of their senses, is contemptible
and shameful. He has earned the gal
lows as the penalty of his horrible
crime, and if he be hanged let him go
to eternity without any further unbe
coming and barbarous exhibitions of
levity or malice.

PRESS COMMENTS.
Atlanta Constitution: From a census
tulletin just issued it is seen that At
lanta is credited with a population of
37,409, a gain of 15.620 over the census
of 1870. This population is composed
of 17,677 males and 19,732 females;
35,693 are American born, and 1,
sl6 are of foreign birth. Divided
by the color line we have 21,079
whites and 16.33C blacks. Atlanta is
one of the few cities in which there are
neither Chinese, Japanese, or Indians.
Augusta has 11 Chinamen ; while Sav

empire and 12 Indians.

Colonel Johoston rather denies the
truth of the charge that he has desert
ed the Democratic party. Well, he
must blame the Washington Republi
can for the charge. And in view of
the lying proclivities of that paper, we
ask the Colonel's pardon for having at
iached any credence to the report. But
did he and Price hold a private confer
ence? If yea, what was the object of
that conference? Answer that, "Kernel!"

Mr. John Dillon, member of Parlia

on condition that he would leave the
country and sent back the following
manly reply: "I have received your
message that if I desire to go to the con
tlnent the gates of Kilmainham prison
are open to me. I do not know why
the message was sent to me, as I have
made no communication to you. If any
representations have been made by my
friends they are without my consent

you will not address to me any further
communications."
OPPOSING INVESTIGATION.
When Mr. Armfield sometime ago in
troduced a resolution in the House ask
ing for the appointment of a commit
tee to investigate the alleged abuses in
the Sixth collection district of this
State it caused considerable flurry
amongst the Republican members, and
was vigorously opposed by Mr. Houk,
Republican, of Tennessee, who charac
terized the resolution and accompany
ing remarks of Mr. Armfield as a stump
speech. It J was finally referred to the
Committee on Ways and Means, where
it will in all probability be buried, and
never see the light of day again.
1 Wednesday, when Senator Vance
asked for the consideration of a simi
lar resolution, previously introduced by
him in Hid Senate, It was opposed by
Mr. Hoar as a reflection upon the Sec
retary of the Treasury, and the resolu
tion not being pressed was suffered to
sleep, for the time being, at least.
Why this opposition to investigation ?
If the tiharges alleged 'be true it is due
to the government that the truth be es
tablished so that the abuses maybe
KERNEL JOHNSTON.
Laurinburg Enterprise.
This paper was among the first to
publish the accusation against Colonel
Johnston, to the effect that he had per
sonally expressed to the President his
determination to sever his connection
with the Bourbon Democracy and to
espouse the new movement, and we
would gladly publish a denial ot the
accusation from the colonel's pen ; but
we cannot afford to publish his quasi
disclaimer which appeared in the Char
lotte papers a few jdays ago. It is no
denial, no disclaimer; but simply a
document without point, a dissertation
upon the motives actuating the corres-
fiondents who dared to lead the people
nto the light of the true Inwardness of
Col. Johnson s visit to the White House.
If the colonel has not intimated a pur
pose to endorse or take active part in
the Independent movement in the State,
why did he not say o't If ho intends
to affiliate hereafter with the Demo
cratic party why didn't he say so? If
he does not intend to countenance and
encourage the new movement to defeat
the Democratic party, why didn't he
come out like a man and a true Demo
crat and denounce It? Like the dis
tinguished Senator Brown, of Georgia,
who was similarly accused, why didn't
he say, when interrogated : "I trust it
is scarcely necessary for me to say to
you or to the people that I can give no
countenance to the movement. I see
nonecessity for it. I expect to vote
for the Democratic nominee for Gover
nor of Georgia in 1882 and for the Dem
ocratic nominee for President and Vice
President in 1884, if I live to see the
elections, and shall be glad to contri
bute my humble mite to the success of
the Democratic party upon a liberal
and just platform, which I have no
doubt it will occupy, and I trust the
great body of our people will feel it
their duty to do the same."
The debate continued at considera
ble length, principally between Win
dom, Hoar, Vest and Ingalls, some
times taking the shape or personal con
troversy between Windom and Vest,
and Windom and Ingalls. Finally the
amendment as originally proposed by
Ingalls and modified by Hoar was
abopted ayes 43 ; noes 10.
It is as follows:
'1 hat the secretary of the treasury is
hereby authorized to receive at the
treasury, and at the office of any assis
tant treasury of the United States, and
at any postal money order office, lawful
money of the United States to the
amount of fifty dollars, or any multiple
of that sum, or any bonds of the United
States bearing three and a half per cent
interest, which are hereby declared
valid, and to issue in exchange therefor
an eaual amount of registered or cou
pon bonds.
Several messages from the President
enclosing communications from heads
of departments were read and referred.
A motion for an executive session
was voted down, as were also several
subsequent motions for adjournment
by opponents of the bill, Sherman de
claring his intention to have the bill
disposed of if possible without further
delay, and the majority of the Senate
supporting him.
Teller renewed the amendment of
Plurrrb with sundry additional features
requiring the application of surplus
revenues over 120,000,000, etc., but upon
being appealed to by Allison arid others
not to retard and endanger the bill,
withdrew it.
Hawlev renewed his amendment of-
ferred in committee of the whole. At
5 o'clock the friends of the bill manifes
ted the disposition to prolong the ses
sion to reach a final vote.
Voorheesthen took the floor and pro
ceeded to arraign Windom's funding
operations, but had not made any prog
ress when a motion to adjourn prevail
ed and the Senate adjourned.
House Stephens, of Georgia, from
the committee on coinage, weights and
measures, reported back the following
bills, and they were referred to the
committee of the whole, to authorize a
new metric gold coin for international
use to be known as "Stella." It author
izes the coinage of the goloid metric
dollar, two dollars and fractions or a
dollar, and also for the coinage of the
goloid double eagle, eagle and half
eagle.
Dunnell, of Minnesota, from the com
mittee on ways and means, reported a
bill repealing so much of section 3,385
Revised Statutes as imposes export tax
on tobacco. Referred to the committee
of the whole.
The House at 1.15 went into Com
mittee of the Whole, Calkins, of Indi
ana, in the chair, on the Postoffice ap
propriation bill.
Several amendments increasing the
appropriation for clerk's salaries were
rejected or ruled out on points of order.
Bingham, of Pa offered an amend
ment inoreasing by $100,000 the appro
priation for expenses of the free deliv
ery system and appropriating that
amount for the extension of the system.
He spoke in advocacy of his amend
ment which would give a fair increase
of salary to axilluary letter carriers,
many of whom received but $400 a year
and were a hard working class of men.
Propositions were made to fix the
amount of appropriation for the exten
sion of the free delivery system at
$155,000 and $150,000, but pending the
vote thereon the committee rose.
House adjourned.

A Judicial Opinion that Somewhat
ffl ixeM ThiuffH."
New Orleans, Feb. 2. Soon after
the arrest of the Italian bandit Esper-
lto, Gayetaus Arditto waylaid shot and
killed Tony Labruzzo who was charg
ed with having betrayed Esperito to
the police, and hence a victim of re
venge. Arditto was tried and convict
ed, receiving sentence for life. On an
appeal to the Supreme Court the ver
diet was set aside yesterday and a new
trial ordered, on the ground that under
the law all cases should be allotted by
hazard between two judges of the
criminal courts. This decission ren
ders illegal every conviction had in the
New Orleans criminal court since the
adoption of the constitution of 1879,
although some of the convicts have
suffered death. Chief Justice Bermu
dey rendered the decision. Several
weeks ago, some jurist decided that Dr.
J. C. Beard was not a citizen of the
Parish of Orleans, because he had not
tiled his oath of office within the given
time after the election and therefore
had forfeited the office. In the trial
yesterday of the son of Addison Com-
mock who shot young Borino for call
ing him a negro, the defense, under the
Supreme court ruling, decided that
none of the criminal judges, clerks of
court, jurv, commissioners or sheriff
were legally in office, they all having
committed the same laches, lor which
Beard was deprived of his office.
Much consternation has been caused
bv the application of the facts to the
law, and a consultation has been had
with the executive and Chief Justice,
with a view to extricating those con
cerned from grave dilemma.

Neav Orleans, Feb. 2. In response
to the ivitation of State Treasurer
Burke, bids were received to sell the
State six hundred thousand dollars

proposed purchase will be heard in the
civil District Court in a few days
whereupon the governor and treasurer
will proceed to make the purchase un
