    v Guitean's Trlnl.
At th opning of eonrt on th. twelfth day
Mrs. ftcovllle reanmod the witness stand and
described Guitean'. appearance and aotiona
during hli Ti.it at her house In 1878. Freqnont
objection! were raised by the counsel for the
prosecution to the cbaraoter of the question!
Sropoundod by Mr. Bcoville, and a continual
iscuseinn ensued between couneol tipon the
admissibility of certain evidence. Upon the
omiclusion of Mr. Booville'a direct examina
tion, at Mr. BcoTllle's request her croBs-eiam-ination
waa postponed to allow Mr. George D.
Burroughs, of Chicago, to testify, as he de
sired to leave the city the same afternoon. He
testified that he boarded with the Scoville. at
the time of Gultoaa's visit In 1878, and mode
tip his mind that the prisoner was either a fool
or crazy. Before the next witness could be
called Guitoan suddenly broke in with : "X de
sire to tell all these crank newspaper men that
I appear here as my own counsel, That ia my
answer to all the silly stuff they have boen de
livering themselves of for some days past.
Some of these newspaper men have gone crazy.
I appear here in part as my own counsel, as I
have a right to nndcr tho law and Constitution
of America." The next witness, O. 8. Jocelyn
of Lenox, N. T., stated that he wasthebiiHiueas
manager of the Oneida Oommuiity while that
institution had an existence; that he knew
Guitoan during his stay with tho community j
ho thought his most marked charactoristio was
his intense egotism. John W. Ouiteau, brother
of the prisoner, was next summoned. Ho had
not boen on good tortus with his brother for
some years, but had not doubted his sanity
until he received .omo lotters ia October. Since
he had come on here and had seen his brother
in jail, ho had become satisfied tiiat he was
insane. On being cross-examined tho witness
admitted that before he came to Washington
lie had always, in talking of the caso, said that
he boliovcJ his brother was responsible, lio
believed him responsible but not sane re
sponsible, because, as ha thought, at some
period of his life tho prisoner had voluutarily
surrendered himself to evil practices rather
than gooiL Cnitcau winced nndcr these state
ments, evidently fearing that hii brother's
condor was injuring his caso, and with consid
erable bitterness interrupted: "My brother
and I hate not been on good terms for fifteen
y: ars. He always sympathizr d with my father
on that Oneida Community business, while Mr.
Scoville and my sister sympathized with me.
Tug last time 1 saw my brother in Boston we
had some angry wo.ds, so that ho dot s not
como hcr to tistify for me with the ordu.::rT
force that a brother usually does come, l'.u
glad to tind ho hoscnanged his views, however,
ininyea-o. I want the publics to understand
about this." Guiteau continued to interrupt
explain and correct the witness. Onco JuiIko
D.ividge attempted to stop him, but ho waved
his hund imperions y, saying: "You keep
qulot, judge, if you please." On further cross
examination John Ouiteau admitted that ho
did not believe his father insane. T ils witness'
testimony was rather opposed to the theory of
the defeuse. that a strong hereditary taint of
insanity existed in the family. Mr. Scoville
tried to bring out that that theory had always
beeuropngnant tohi.Ti, and that he was pre
judiced against it, but this lino of examination
was ruled out on an objection. Mrs. Sarah Y.
Parker, of Chicago, tho widow of Augustus
Farkor, one of tho sons of the prisoner's Aim I
Anna, next testitlod that her husband died in
the insane asylum at Elgin, 111. She had le
quested tho prisoner to cease visiting at her
house because he had prorosed to educato her
caughter, aged thirteen years, so as to marry
her. The witness considered that Ouiteau was
cracked. Next Mr. Scoville asked that the
prisoner be sworn. Ouiteau nervouslv
walked to the witnoes stand in the
cu-tody of two donuty marshals, ani tho
oath was administered to him. Ho then
whispered a lew words to a police
man, who was standing near the witness-box,
and immediately the three deputies ranged
themselves shoulder to shoulder behind the
prisoner! who, apparently more at ease. said,
inquiringly, to the Judge: "I can sit down?"
"Yes," replied the judge, and tho prisoner
seated himsoLf. Ouiteau then identified about
twenty lotters, dating from 1S57 to 1863, which
he had written to his relatives.
On tho thirteenth day Mr. Scoville began
by putting in evidence a copy of an extract
from the i-eo rl of the lslooniingdale Insane
asylum as to :a' admiesion and death of
Francis W. C:;:r.u. The district attorney
admitted the Uai that F. W. Guiteau died there
insane at the date indicated. Tue prisoner
was the" directed to take the witness-stand.
At first he demurred to the suggestion of Mr.
Scoville that ho ehsuld testify. He was led
around to the stand by his guards, who ranged
themselves behind him in a stiff row, but onco
ecatod on the chair which he so earnestly
craved his lipi were closed. Ho was willing to
identify lettors or papers, but ho did not
want to testify to anything which would sub
ject him to a cross-examination. Ho said
that he was "sick," or at least "indiposed."
Mr. Scovillo humored him. He read the two
dozen letters from the assassin to his father
and brotbore, identified by him on the previous
day. Then the assassin, at his own request,
was allowed to return to his seat. When Mr.
Scovillo had finished reading tho letters, which
axcitcd little intoroat, ho called the assassin to
tho Btand and kept him there until tho ad
journment. Tho assassin was allowed to tell
tho story of his life in bis own way. At 3
o'clock he had brought it down to 1878.
Throughout ho received the strictest attention,
it is story, so far as ho unfolded it on the first
day, was tho story of a blasted and vagabond
life. Ho said that bo had, so far as in
fluence went, no mother. From a child
ho met opposition. Ho quarelcd with
his father until after soveral bitter years
of strifo his weaker will gavo way, and he ao
cepted tho beliefs imposed coon him. He
found no Joy or rest, howevor, in fanaticul
faith. His years of young manhood were odious
to him, and finally his slavery, for so he called
it, in the Oneida Community became intoler
able Ho separated himself from thoir union,
but roaiorse and religious t rror drove him
back again. Ho could not endure a lifo which
crow d,dly more repulsive, and summoning up
Lis feeble courage he flod eocretly back onco
more into a world he believed to be forever
cursed. Ho tried to turn his mind to business,
in vain. Buy and night he walked tho
ctrcets of Now York, haunted by the fears ol
retribution. At last he throw these terrors ofl
and felt u dosiro for worldly success, He
studied law aud was admitted to the bar. While
his suceoss was email be earned a living, and
mingled as a follow man and citizen with other
men. But he soon broke down. His clients
left him, he drifted to New York, sank lower
and lower, till he was solzed by the police for
some pot ty offense and thrown into the city jail.
Here ho lived days and nights of wretchoduci.
Ho was in a rage at the very recollection. Ho
returned to the West filled with extravagant
schemes for revolutionizing the world with
newspapers. No one fell in with his projects,
and tliov failed utterly, as had all his plans be
fore. He could do no work, make no money.
Ho eoucht the shelter of his sister's home.
There ha loitered weoks and months in idloneas
(111 one dav. m a moment of passion or frenzv.

letters and hud btfriondod him through all his

dav evancclist. iourneviog from town to town
to instruct a dark world in tho hidden meanings
of Seriuturo. Seedv aud famished he wandered
through, the country, stealing rides, food and
ehclter. To his topsy-turvy mind this was as
honest practico as his teachings were sound
doctrine. He felt no shame. "I was hap
pier," ho testified, "wneni was souing my lec
ture here in Washington in the departments
and up and down Pennsylvania avenue than
ever before in mv life. People would now and
then buy a book, and then I would say, ' Well,
perhaps I'm saving that man's soul.' " Gui-
teau's lxiks and manner on the stand, says a
correspondent, attracted close attention. He
looked hatreard aud sick. His face was gaunt
and pallid. His eyes flickered, his lips were
eolorloss. and every movement waa sudden and
restless. He began calmly, bnt as the memo
ries of his hateful pact were revived he grew
more nervous ana demonstrative, ine recol
lection of his life at Oneida made him furious.
and his denunciations of the le .ders in that
ncmmunitv were violent, borne or uuj de
scriptions were very graphic He
is a good mimio, and as he showed the Jury
by voice and gesture his treatment by railroad
officials and others the audience could not, at
time, heln lauchins in spito of the crim ear
nestness of the speaker. Now and then his own
features would relax into a smile that was
nearoi a grimace. Perhaps he never looks
worse than when he grins. He talks at a speed
which is the despair of stenographers. A short
hand reporter in court estimated the rate at
250 words a minute. HiVuttorance ia very ner
vous and fervid and his gestures quick and
bold. His manner is that of a man wholly vnd
deadly in earnest, lie .peak, without pre
meditation, and in all his windings and turn
ine never contradicts himself or gets names.
dates or places wrong. His accurate and ready
memory was noticed by all. Timid as. he evi
dently was when first put upon the stand, he
soon gained courage ana appearea at ease.
Ouiteau resumed his narrative on the four
teenth dav. telliue how he traveled about sell
ing and delivering his lecture till he became
thoroutrhlv discouraged and distrusted. Then

could not keep his mind from theologv, and he
drifted back to lecturing. Again be failed and
roturoed to law, only to go back onoo more to
the rostrum. Then he oscillated between law,
insurance and theologv for several months.
He finally left Chicago for good in the summer
of 1879. AU his other caroers theology, law
and business making him no satisfactory re
turn, in 1880 he decided to go into politics.
Ho offered bis services to the National Repub
lican committee, and thoy were declined.
However, he started out on his own
hook, trying to find andioncos for his
lecture, "Garfield against Hancock. '.
He related his campaign services,
bringing the story np to his arrival In Wash
ington on March 6. Ho entered en tho last
tlatk chapter in his autobiography by stating
emphatically that his getting or not getting
ofl ice had nothing to do with his attempt to re
move President Garfield. That, ho said, was a
political necessity to which ho was urged by
iMvino pressure. Ho then recounted his efforts
to gain tho ear of pnblio men: thoy fiilod.
Then, he declared, came tho inspiration. Sud
denly on the evening after Conkling's resigna
tion, ho thought that if Projidnnt Garfield waa
out of the way all would go woll. Ho tried to
shako it off, but it grew. In a fortnight's timo
it. had become a fixed resolve. He do
dared ho never has doubted since
that time about tho first of Juno that ho
was inspired. He prayed and prayed, asking
God if Garfield wore not to bo thus removed to
got rid of him in somo other way. The re
moval, he Bald, was necessary to save tho na
tion.from ruin. He said that he felt reliovod
of a burden and hapm lifter bo had firod upon
the President. Ho also stated that for twonty
years ho had entertained the expectation of
being at somo timo elected to be l'rosidout of
the liuited Slates, and ho had not given up
that expectation yet. Tho spectators laughed
lit this declaration. When he had finished his
cross-examination was at onco begun by Judgo
l'orter.of New York. Ho began in tho most pleas
ing, insinuating tono to question Guiteau as to
his ago ami as to his law experience. Ho askod
hiiu w ith the skill of a great cross-examiner
such qnos ions as would tend t so divert his
m -ml that ho could put with great sud ienness
and force a question which would bo liltely to
rtartlo tho prisoner. Ho led tip through a
long series of questions about Guitean's law
rarecr to tho ouostion whether or not he had
been guilty of vices or had been truthful, and
theu. takuii: uu a fiCte booit. u5 put a question
to him which would indicate that Guiteau had
lied. Judge Tortor's manner as ho approaohod
this question was effective. Throwing aside
his insinuating voice and manner, bo re
minded Guiteau of tho discrepancies in his
statements, and of the discrepancies bctwoen
his statements and those of other witnesses,
and attempted to show that Guitean's state
ments that no was irnunui wero incorrect.
But he did not frb.'htcn Ouiteau, who became
very angry when Judgo Porter spoke to him of
tho murder ot tho rrosidont. ho would not
hare that word murder used. He said it was
not a murder. "I havo never looked tipou it
in that light," ho said. It was something that
tie was not personally responsible for. Judge
Porter at onco tried to soothe the oxcited
prisoner, smiling pleasantly at him and seem
ing to tako ids view of tho subject, and then led
up to the mattor of inspiration. He got Guiteau
somewhat confused as to his statements that he
w.ib in pircd on May 16 by God, and was not
satisfied that it was an inspiration until June 1.
lie asked uuueau men me torrioie quostion
whether his delay during those two weoks of
his doubt was not due to the fact that he knew
that the act be contemplated was murder in
human law. Scoville, the counsel for the
prisoner, the jury, and even Judge Cox leaned
rorwara in some excitement to eaten tne
answer. For a moment Guiteau said nothing :
then starting up, he said, with great force, that
ho never thought of the question of murder at
all. He was Bituplv striving to find out whether
the Deity really demanded of him to do the act
which was ot itself horrible to him in his per
sonality. All throngh the day insanity experts
watched Guiteau with the closest attention.
Dr. Thew, of tho Connecticut asylum, I . Good
ing, of St. Elizabeth, Dr. Nichols, of Binomiug
dalo, and other eminent experts were grouped
in seats very close to the witness, studying his
lace and listening to nis statements.
When the court opened on the fifteenth day
Mr. Forter rose to continue the cross-examination,
but the prisoner interposed "Before
Judge Porter commences," said he, "I want to
speak of a personal matter. Some weeks ago
I sent out an appeal for money. It was on my
own account, and Mr. Scoville said that it wag
done without his consent. I again desire my
friends throughout tho nation to send ms
money for my defense I presume that I have
some friends' interested in the cause of justice,
and I desire them to send whatever thev think
they ought, $5, $10, 150, $108, $1,000 if they
want. The money will bo used in my defense
We need monov. Another matter : I received
a very kind letter from John D. Townsend the
other day stating that he would appear in my
defense if Mr. Scoville wished him. Mr. Sco
ville notified me that he had telegraphed Mr.
Townsend that his services were desired.
I have not heard from him since. I would be
very glad to see him on this caso. This money
can be sent to Goorge Scoville, Washington.
The name may be withheld if the parties so de
sire." The cross-examination was then continued
by Mr. Porter, the prisoner being in a very
nervous and excited state of mind. Although
excited, and at times violent in his maimer,
tho prisoner-witness was too alert to bo easily
eitangled in the nets of tho cross-examiner.
Ho refused to bo frightened when Mr. Perter
pointed his finger at hiin and asked questions
in a dramatic style, and often ho declined to
bo led upon ground that had boon gone over
before. Through it all he stuck to his text
that it was tho Deity who inspired his
act. When asked if ho thought Mason
and Jones did wrong in shooting at
him, he roplied yes, unless they could
show they acted as agents of t'ao Deity. He
becamo angry whonever it wis au'ostcd that
ho was guilty of murder, and declared that his
shooting of Garfield was no more murdor than
the shooting of a man ly a soldier in war. It was
the doctors, ho said, who w ero guilty of mur
der. Ho could not be driven from his position
that ho had no malice, and that his failure to
get the Pat iB consulship had nothinjr to do with
the assassination. In fact, he said, after tho
1st of June, when ho became fully possessed
of his inspiration, ho would not havo
accepted the oflico if it had been ten
dered to him. Ho even appeared to bo in
dignant at the way in which Mr. Porter spoke
of his Inspiration, which was a sacred subject,
not to be lightly treated. When pressed closely
en the question of malice he replied that, ot
course, he hod no malico, for if ho hail, Tilaiuo
was the man for him to havo shot. Ho con
fessed that he was physically a coward, but yet
ho was morally brave when he had the Deity at
his back, and he expected there would be an
act of God, if necessary, to protect him from
either Bbooting or hanging. The assassin dis
played remarkable quicknoss of perooption
and much shrewdness. In spite of cunning,
however, he was involved in many
contradictions, and was fairly brought
to bay more than once. At such
times be either became angry and violont
or insolent and defiant. The scene was a re
markable one. Judge Porter was practically
on the stand nearly as often as Guitoau, and
Guitoau's finger was shaking at Portor about
as often as Porter's at him. The assassin was
more than ever master of ceremonies. He
scolded Judge Porter, abused him, mocked
him, .stopped him, refused to answer his ques
tions whenevor he felt so disposed, called upon
the stenographer tn read his notes at intervals,
and, after four hours f tins extraordinary ex
hibition, himself adjourned the court.
1 he cross-examination of Guiteau by Judge
Portor was continued and brought to a con
clusion on the sixteenth day. The assassin
spoke of himself as a man of destiny. Ho de
scribed the "delightful and cozy fellowship"
he witnessed between President Garfield and
Kecretaiv Blaine, and which, he said, intensified
his conviction thai the President must be
removed " in order to avert the evils of Mr.
Blaine's influence over him. He showed the
same cunning and quickness as boforo; the
mine Dromolnest to see the drift of a question
still unfinished, and tho same readiness in
wriggling out of it, and the same monstrous
vanity and brutal malioo. and while he was
involved, as he was on the previous day, in a
number of contradictions on minor points, he
nevertheless adhored with aineular tenacity to
his theory of the defense. Two admissions of
considerable importance were made, however,
in the course of the day. One slipped from
him when he was brought np by Judge Porter's
harassing cross-examination to a nt or anger,
The other was only worried out of him by per
sistent questioning. The first came when
Judge Porter pressed him to tell why he should
have hired a carriage to take him to the jail
after the shooting when he kxew he was aoting
under l)ivine inspiration and believed the Lord
would take care of him. The assassin l ad
already been in a dozen rages because Judge
Porter nemisted in dwelling upon the in
cidents of the murder, and when he insisted
upon an answer to this question Guiteau
bioke out angrily. wiiy," said he,
shakinehis rieht hand toward Judge rotter,
" I wasn't going to be torn to pieces by a mob.
I knew they'd say: 'He's a disappointed
office-seeker; hang him at one' " " Oh, you
expected that, did you?" said Judge Forter, in
U! plaqH auq vawaw Wit
tean aeemed to see that he had Tnade a fatal
s ip. " But I knew It would bo all false I" he
shouted, angrily. "But you expected It?
persisted Judge Porter, still bland, yet with a
more menacing intonation.
" Ya as, I expected it," said Goitcau, with
hi favorite snarl, now angrier than evor.
The othor ailmlssion roferred to was a
statement whloh closed the cross-examination.
Judge Portor gave to it a dramatio effect. He
had been questioning tho assassin upon the in
cidents of the shooting. Then folding his
srms and fixing his dark eyes full upon him,
Judgo Portor said, with slow, impressive utter
ance: " And from that day to this yon have
never felt remorse for the deod?" Guitoan
tiled lo escape from the query. He shifted
abmvt restlessly in his scat, and his eyes, which
were lowered, ran backward and forward alonr
tho top of tho witnoss-liox. He seemed to
brink from looking at Judge Porter. Being
pi iwil hard for nn answer ho finally repliod,
llirowing angry and furtive glances at the
croM-cxuniinor, "Why, of course, I felt re
morse so far" "That is all." siid Judgo
Porter, gravely, sitting down. "The cross
elimination is ended." Guiteau had seen the
iiii-lnko as soon as he had mado it, nnd
Jidgo Porter did not get his words out of his
mouth before tho assassin was pounding on
the front of tho witness-box and hotly explain
ing that his remorso was only a rogrot for tho
necessity of tho act. It was an impressive an 1
iitnitlcn'nt ending to the long croRS-examini-tion

ion of his (Guitoau's) speech, which witness
had read, and thought a curious production.
Tho next timo witness saw Guiteau was in
Washington in April lost, when ho told him he
was going to havo tho Paris consulship. Wit
ness was impressed that prisoner had nn illy
balanced mind, or what is usually called "lack
of good, common sense." Mr. Scovillo then
took witness over tho ground about which he
questioned Mr. Blaine, namely, tho trouble iu
tho Republican party. Mr. " Storrs said his
faith iu tho rank aud file of tho Republican
party was such that tho "trouble" would not
liavc disrupted that party. Mr. Ed. Daniel, of
Virginia, then testified to Guitoau's peculiar
religious views, and tho impression was that ho
was crazy; didn't think much of that, as ho
(witness) had been called insane Tho names
of Speaker Randall, Senator Bayard aud Presi
dent Arthur wero next called, but nono of
these witnesses appeared, and Mr. Scovillo, to
save timo, read a number of newspaper slips
found on tho prisoner at tho timo of his cap
ture. Guiteau, who had remained quiet all
the moraing, here broke out " That these ex
tracts confirmed his inspiration." "It is said

of an extract from tho Christian Union, the

President David Davis was tho noxt witness.
In answer to a question, ho said he did not be
long to either party. He had general knowl
edge of the political situation last year, but did
not go into the caucuses of either association.
He could not say he was acquainted with the
trouble in tho Republican party last year; had
not heard of the disruption of tho Republican
party, and did not bclievo it would
bo disbanded until the Democratic
party died. Continuing, the witness said he
did not believe the success of either party would

walked out with a puzzled air Mr. Scovillo

Tiie Internal Hcyoiiuj,
Internal Bovenuo Commissioner Green B.
Raum has submitted to tho secretary of tht
treasury his annual report for tho fueal year
ended Juno 30, 1881. The receipts of internal
revenue for the fiscal vear 1870 wa $113 410,
C21.83; for 1830, $123,081,010.10; for 1881,
$13E,229,912.30, and ths receipts for the first
four months of the present fUcal year lmvt
been $30,870,970.11, bein,'? $7,061,723.85 in ex
cess of tho receipts for tho corresponding
months of tho iast fiscal year. Tho commis
sioner says: " If this increase should be main
tained daring the remaining eight months ol
the fiscal year, the recoipts for 1832 will he
fully $157,000,000." Tho total amount of col
lections from tobacco was $12,854,9i1.31. Gen
eral Raum says that whenevor tho wants of the
government will allow a reduction of interntl
taxation, his opinion is, it will be wis
to confine those taxes to distillod spir
its, malt liquors, tobacco and its products,
and to Bpccial taxes on manufactures and
dealers in these articles, and to fix the tsxoa
at such rates as will yield the amount ot
revenue necessary to be raised from thes
sources. He recommends additional legisla
tion for the protection of tho lives and pet sons
of officers ot the United States from the assault
of those who resist their authority. He is of
opinion that there should bo a law for tho trul
and punishment iu tho courts of the Unite I
States of persons who kill, or make assault
with intent to kill, such oftioers while in the
performance of their lawful duties. The sub
ject of pensioning the widows aud orphans ol
officers of the rovenue service who have been
killed is discussed. General Kantn shows that
tho attompt for the past fivo years to suppress
illicit distiiriug has resulted in the killing ol
twenty-eight and the wounding of s:xt..-fotir
officers aud employes, aud suggests the pro
priety of legislation authorising suitable peu
Kious to be awarded to tho widows and de
pendent families of those killed, and diroctbig
proper provisions to be made for thoso wounded
or uisauieu iu vuo boiyiuu.
General Raum makes various recommenda
tions concerning the appointmcut of ouiiloyus.
He recommendB a torm of office of four years
for subordinate officers, clerks an I euiplocs;
all applicants for appointment to be well
recommended as to character, and to s'and a
proper examination as to attainments, their ap
pointmeuts at first to bo temporary.

Tlio Navy Report.
Secretary of tho Navy Hunt in his annual re

tho lack of vessels. This should not be so.

our commerce, or to shiold our citizens abroad.
Ho then refers to tho report of the naval
advisory board. Ho says the department
recommends, as entitled to, the entire approba
tion of Congress, tho adoption of the views
of the majority of tho board. Tho
difference of opinion iu the hoard was so

The report states that the appropriations
available for tho current expenses of the fiscal

had three fibs broken in a fight with sharks; and
roming down the Somane, a river in France, I
received a charge of Bhot from nn excited nnd
startled lamtsnyui. Although this was not verv

nothing more on my trip than intense cold ; for,
as long as my limbs nro free nnd easy mid not

The Captain calls it "Baby Mine," nnd has stored
therein signal rockets, thermometer, compass,

llufore starting out I rub myself thoroughly with
the article, and its action upon the muscles is
wonderful. From constant exposure 1 am some

have met pcoplo who had been sutlering with
rheumatism for years; by my advice they used
the Oil and it cured them. 1 would sooner do
without food for days than be without this rem

A climate not necessarily unhealthy often
proves so to those unaccustomed to it. The
acclimating process seems unusually slow in
some constitutions. There is, however, a
medicinal means of acclimating it of which
residents and sojourners in unaccustomed i
malarious climates have not been slow to avail
themselves. Hostcttor's Stomach Bitters is a
medicinal safeguard and acclimating tonio of
standard reputation, which travelers, emi
grants, tourists, mariners and others whose
tastes and pursuits entail exposure, subjection
to changes of temperature, unusual or nn
wholosonie diet or water, and the fatigue at
tendant npon long Journeys by land or sea,
concur In pronouncing it rolia'ble, agreeable
and snfe. As a remedy for disordors of the
liver, stomach and bowels, vory prevalent In
malarious regions and tho tropics, as a pre
ventive of fever and agno, rheumatism and
