CGuitean seems to feel good over how he united the republican party. A re- cent letter of Gath says: An old gentleman of fortune, who was something of an amateur in polities, said to me yesierday: “Gath, do you notice the tenacity with which that sconndrei Guiteau chuckles over the fact that he anited the Republican party; that his bullet kept it from a division? Why, he talks as if God Almighty were going to pass him into the better world for pre- venting a near political schism. I don" ike it,” said the old gentleman. “It has been a good many centuries since the doctrine was laid down that the dag- flagrant injustice, General Grant has certainly expressed these views freely to his intimate friends lately, without an at- tempt to concealment, and it is ramored that he either has addressed, or will soon address, a formal and earnest ap- peal to President Arthur for the prompt orter to his prop 1H restoration of General | haa Pot . and at General Gran!

Those who speak of General Grant's views and purpose on the subject, say that he will manfully confess his error in Porter's case, and appeal to President Arthur to correct Grant's unintentional injustice to Porter when President. He says that, with the imperfect source of information at the time and for years af- ter the condemnation of Porter, and the high tide of public prejudice that pre- vailed against all who were even accused of perfidy in the army, it is not surpris- ing that he was long misled as to the in- justice of Porter's dismissal; but now, with the position and strength of the country Providence saving to him or her in the ¥illuge Indians are soaltared over an area nervons language of Pharaoh's daughter|in Now Moxleo and Arizona strets hing to the mother of Mosses, “Take this child {irom Taos. the Rio Grande sway and nurse it for me. and 1 will pay | Yalota of El Paso, a distance of fi be thee thy wages,” Ex 2:0 {miles and in width about 400 m les Iv is out of this relationship that respon. in this urea there are now ghout gibilitios and duties arise responsibilities inhabited villages There unre » ' and duties that cannot ba avoided, nor ins of thousands of ancient vill; delegated to others.

The Patriot Raseae™s road It says tha there are indications of a quiet little game under the table in behalf of State date for governor. If General Beave: should be nominated his prohibirory liquor notions might prove a stumbling block toa large portion of the republica: vuters, and if elected, he might give a good deal of trouble to the machine. There are no objections to Butler on either score. If General Beaver should be abandoned by the machine the state treasurer will be brought forward on the fitting occasion as & magnanimous offer of compromise to the independents. But it is very probable that the independents will look that gift horse in the mouth s long while before taking him, They have forgotien his important service in the scheme to break up the legislature last winter. Shenral Beaver, look a leedle out, The Baltimore Gazette puts a great deal of truth in a few words. It says: Ia New York the Republicans are trading with John Kelley; in Virgin they are trading with Mahone; in Ala bama and Mississippi they dicker with Greenbackism; ia North Carolina with the whiskey interest; in Virginia with re. padiatian. ——— The United States begins the new year with a public debt of $1,785491,717, 0: about $1,000,000,000 less than the maxi- mum amount reached by the debt in 1865. Our National debt is now less than one-half of that of the United King: dom, it is a little more than one-third of France, and among other European na- tions it is exceeded by the public debts of Russia, Spain and Italy, The debt oi Austria and Hungary is aboat the same as ours. Judged by any test of ability of the people to pay it, the burden of the public debt of the United States is by far the lightest of that of any of the great nations of the world. A rm i In these times of republican rule every species of fraud that ingenuity can invent is made use of to make money. The latest swindle is the formation of a bogus county in Dakota, the bogus offi- cers issued county bonds, brought them to New York and sold $200,000 worth be- fore the fraud was discovered. School districts were formed and a house built in tue following manner: A shanty, eight by ten feet, was built on one side of the town line of the so-called county. An officer moved into it, post- ed up a notice of a school meeting, and after the required number of days’ no- tice this single official would unanimous- ly vote to build a school house costing $1,500, and issued bonds therefore. As 2000 a8 this performance was over, the shanty was moved its length across the line into the next township, where the same furce was enacted, and authority was granted to issue $1,500 more ip school bonds. In this way one small shaoty was made to answer in two dis- tricts and to represent $3,000 in school houses, Tha Nv rt ty ete Mn Any of our subscribers paying all dues, and $2.25 in advance, will receive for one year the Reporter and the Chicago “Weekly News,” a large sized 48 ecolum paper.

Fitz John Porter was tried in 1862- 63 and cashiered. A rehearing of his case was attempted, but was not secured - oivil tnbunais, the Schofield Board re- ported that the finding and sentence of Then Congress took up the matter, in order to act on this revision, and did wuothing, Thus, after vinereen years, what the nl- timate fate of Fitz John Porter will Le is a8 uncertain as ever. The Whittaker trial was another ome of prodigious length. Io 1880 his case was heard fr imonios at West Point before the Boar; in 1881 be was tried again for months be- fore a court martial, and his fate is sill undetermined. The Flipper case was one of great length, and that, too, is still doubts The Warren Court of Inqui- Ty was protyacted 10 an enormous extent, we do not yet bear the end of tuat, and, meanwhile, tnat of has been almost concluded, and gson has not yet been resumed mr A ———— betiangerarate when it takes ASKASBINA- tion to keep it together, Yet ever since the Liberals went off from the Regulus wn 1872, under Greely, it has been given out in this country that ifa man breaks sway from his party atjan election he i- aot much beiter than a dog. The pres ant President of tue United States has gone a good deal on that theory, it I up. lerstand him, that a scuismatic is not to oe tolerated evenjon a question of con- science. Why don’t you point out that matter to the people? Isn't it high time ior a party to split when you have to drive your nails of crucifixion to keep its victims upon the party cross?” “Ob,” said I, “that is only the pretext to a dead beat and a murderer.” “Never mind,” said my friend, “it is tolerably clear that through that man’s rascality he did cling firmly to the idea that, by preventing & rupture in the Re- publican party, he was atoning for a horrible murder, even of the ruling Mag- istrate. Where did he get that idea? He ot it from the doctrine enunciated ali through Hayes' Administra: ion by Conk- ling, Cameron and Logan and other bos- ses, that the only manhood was in abid- ng by dishonorable compacts if they were made in politics, But these ruscals ever abide by their contracts uniess hey see no other way tu keep them- selves employed.

GUITEAU'S TRIAL. The evidence in the Guiteau case is all m, and the lawyers are now arguing it, «nd have a hitch at each other. Gui- teau, of course, occasionally puts a hand in too. The farce is nearing its end, and the assassin shows slight signs of flab- bing. Many bogus checks for money have been sent him, One thing is a fact, that since we have only bi-ennial legislatures no body seems to miss the annual session except the Harrisburg hotel keepers. Now as the bi-ennial system has proven a good thing, why not improve upon that and make the sessions quadrennial? We certainly can be happy with a session of the legis- lature once in four years, mmr es Af tf A enn . The receiver of the Philadelphia and Reading railroad and the coal and iron company made public their annual re. port showing the following total receipts of the railroad and coal and iron com- pany for the year ending November 30, 1881: $35286,463.31; total working expenses, not including rentals and in terest, $25,234,574.55; net earnings, $10, 051,888.55; rentals of leased lines, $3,363,- 539.79.

The Son of Simon Neatly Outwits Wolfe and Mitchell, A good story of the way Don Cameron outwitted Senator Mitche!l and Charles Wolfe was told to the writer yesterday, Some time sgo a man named J. F Besle was mail agent on the routs between Lewisburg, Ugion county, snd Spring Mills, Centre county. over the Lewisburg and Tyrone road. Some of the people whose mail went on this routs, were not -atisflad with Beale and got up = petition in favor of 8 man named Haiser, ssking thal he be appointed in B&le's place. Then the maiter wus dropped, and after a Woite, Senator Mitchell secured the aps pointment of Heiser, Tha Caneron men did not like this, but waited for an oppor tunity to get even.

They promptly telegraphed to Cameron snd asked for the appointment of one of their supporters named William Donehower. Cameron saw that it was a good chance to whack Wolfe within twenty-four hours sitar gelling toe dispatch, Donehowor was appointed and the news of his choice pused McCurdy's petition on its way to Washington.
