When the motion for a new trial had been over ruled and Guiteau had been permitted his seat at the counsel table, he called out, "if your honor pleases, 1 desire to ask if there is aDy motion that I ought to make to secure uiy rights.

It is said that Bright's disease is get ting the start of consumption, and is carrying off more victims every year. Thus far it seems to carry off only dis tinguished people. It is a sort of high toned disease. The last scene in the Guiteau case, as far as Judge Cox's court goes, was reached yesterday when sentence was pronounced. The 30th day of June next was fixed for the execution of the assassin, who will then expiate his crime, unless death in the meantime carries him off. The Greensboro Patriot publishes Col. Wm.

HURIED ALIVE. Further From tne Midlothian Itline Diater e nope for the 32 En tombed Men Richmond. Va.. Feb. 4 The infor mation received this morning from the Midlothian mine disaster is of the most discouraging nature. There is no earthly hope that the entombed are now alive. Every effort is being made to enter the pit but it will be impossi ble to reach the point wnere tne men were for days and perhaps weeks. The explosion destroyed all the apertures, including that used for Ventilation, and this will have to be replaced before successful operations can be resumed As may be supposed this frightful ca lamity has cast the deepest gloom over the village of Midlothian where the most of the minershave their homes A maiontv of the victims were mar ried men and in many cases their fam lies are left without support and are dependent upon charity. William II. Marshali, bottom-boss wa3 a son of an old English miner, brought here by the English company who were ODeratins mines nitv vears ago. He was forty-five years of age and had a wife and four children. James E. Hall, deputy bottom-boss, was a native of Chesterfield county and was about forty years of age. The two Jewells were young men and sons of English miners. Joseph Courniew was of Welsh ex traction. His iatner was killed in an explosion in the same shaft in 1876. John Morris, aged twenty years, was the son of a blind Englishman who lost his eyes in pits. Called Oat to Death. Lynchburg, Va , Feb. 4. A young store clerk named Atkinson was foully murdered last night at Sycamore, Pitt sylvania county, by a man named Yates who escaped. It is not known what in cited the murderer to the deed. The two men left the station together, which was the last seen of them till this morning. The body of Atkinson was found on the side of the railroad with a heavy log of wood across it. Later developments from Pittsylva nia indicate that Yates, the mur derer, suspected Atkins of intimacy with his Yates) wife and calling at the latter's place of business, invited him to take a walk and next morning Atkins was found near the railroad, his brain Eierced with a bullet and a heavy tim er across his body. Yates has not been captured. Durant Death of Thos. X Washington, Feb. 4. Mr. Thos. J. Durant, formerly of New Orleans, but tor many years a resident of this city, died last night of pneumonia.

Have you anything to say why sentence should not now be pronounced upon you ?" The prisoner then arose, pale but with lips compressed and desperate de termination stamped upon his features. In a low and deliberate tone he began, but soon his manner became wild and violent, and pounding the table he de livered himself of the following har angue: , iL . . "1 am not guuiy oi uie uuaigo dcu forth in the indictment. It was God's act, not mine, and God will take care of it. and don't let the American people forget it. He will take caro ot it and every officer of this government from the executive down to that mar shal, taking in every man on that jury, and every member of this bench will pay for it, and the American nation will roll in blood if my body goes into the ground and I am hung. The Jews put the despised Gallilean into the grave. For a time they triumphed, but at the destruction of Jerusalem, 40 years arterwaras, me jximiu Sul even with them. I am not afraid of death. I am here as God's man. Kill me to-morrow if you want. I am God s man, and I have been from the start." .inhere c,ax then proceeded to pass sen tence, addressing the prisoner as fol lows: - , "You have been convicted of a crime so terrible in its circumstances and so far reaching that it has drawn upon you the horror of the whole world and the execrations of your countrymen. The excitement produced by such an offence made it no easy task to secure for you a fair and impartial trial, but you have had the power of the United States treasury and the government in your service to protect your person from violence and to procure evidence from diffeient parts of the country. You have had as fair and impartial a inrv as ever assembled in a court of justice. You have been defended by counsel with a zeal and devotion that merits the highest encomium and I cer tainly have done my best to secure a fair presentation of your defence. Notwithstanding all this you have been found guilty. It would have been a comfort to many people if the verdict of the jury had established the fact that your act was that of an irre soonsible man. It would have left the people the satisiying Dener mat uie crime or political assassiimtiuu was something entirely foreign to the institutions ana uie civili zation of our country, but the result has denied them that comfort. The country will accept it as a fact that the crime can be committea ana me court will have to deal with it with the hierbest Denaltv known to the criminal code, to serve as an example to others. Your career has been so extraordinary that people might well at times have doubted your sanity, but one cannot but believe that when the crime was committed you thought you understood the nature or the crime ana its conse quences, Guiteau: "I was acting as God s man. J ana mac you naa morai sense and conscience enough to recog nize the moral iniquity of such an act. The prisoner: "mats a matter oi opinion. J , Your own testimony snowea tnai -i i a i i m a. you recouea witn norrow irom tut) idea. You say that you prayed against it. You say that you thought it might be prevented. This shows that your conscience warned you against it, but by the wretched sophistry of your own mind you worsen yourseii up against the protest of your own con science, vvnat motive couia nave in duced you to this act must be a matter of conjecture. Probably men will think that some political ranaticism or mor bid desire for self-exaltation was the real inspiration for the act. Your own testimony seems to controvert the theo ries of your counsel. They have main tained and thought, honestly, I believe, that you were driven against your will by an insane impulse to commit the act, but your testimony showed that you deliberately resolved to do it, and that a deliberate and misguided will was the sole impulse. This may seem insanity to some persons, but the law looks upon it as wilful crime. You will have due opportunity of having any errors I may have committed during the course of the trial passed upon by the court in banc, but meanwhile it is necessary for me to pronounce the sen tence of the law, that you be taken hence to the common jail of the district from whence you came and there be kept in confinement, and on Friday, the 30th day of June, 1832, you be taken to the place of execution, within the walls of said jail, and there between the hours of 12 m. and 2 p. m., you be hang ed by the neck until you are dead, and may the Lord have mercy on your soul." During the reading Guiteau stood ap parently unmoved and with his gaze riveted upon the judge, but when the final words were spoken he struck the table violently and shouted: "And may the Lord have mercy upon your soul ; I'd rather stand where I do than where that jury does and where your honor does. I'm not afraid to die ; I stand here as God's man, and God Almighty will curse every man who has had a part in procuring this unrighteous ver dict. Nothing but good has come from Garfield's removal, and that will be the verdict of posterity on my inspiration. I don't care a snap for the verdict of this corrupt generation ; I would rather a thousand times be in my position, than in that of those who have hound ed me to death. I shall have a glorious flight to glory, but that miserable scoun drel Corkhill, will have a permanent job down below, where the devil is pre paring for him." After apparently talking himself out, the prisoner turned to his brother and without the slightest trace of excite ment, conversed for some minutes be the item of $2,900,000 for letter carriers and on the various amendments pend ing thereto. Finally it was adopted in this shape, under the amendments of fered by Mr. Bingham, of Pennsyl vana, and Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, for the payment to letter carriers and inci dental expenses of the free delivery system three million dollars, $100,000 of which may be used for the establish ment of a free delivery system where it is not now established. The item of $10,655,000 for railroad mail transporat tion having been reached, considerable discussion ensued over the provisions in it authorizing an annual expendi ture of $25,000 for special railroad ser vices accross the St. Louis bridge. Hewitt, of New York, moved to strike out that clause and substitute a clause that compensation shall be computed at the rate prescribed in the act of the 8d of March, 1873, authorizing the con struction of the bridge. Agreed to 102 to 2. Several amendments were offer ed but without action the committee arose, and at half past 4 the House adjourned.
