Lawyers are having petitions circu lated to have the Supreme Court of the State sit at Philadelphia to hear cases for all the counties of the Com monwealth excepting Allegheny coun ty, which is to have the Court sit at Pittsburg at a stated time, also Dau phin and Lebanon counties are to have the Court sit at Harrisburg one week for their business ; all the other counties of the Commonwealth will be required to go to Philadelphia to transact their business. The street car fare in Philadelphia is 6 cents on the Market street line out to 41st6treet; beyond that to Haddington, a distance of three miles, 3 additional cents are charged. That addition has raised a great excite ment among people that live out that far from their business places. It costs some of the people that live out there about four dollars a month te get into the city to their business places. To a man away up in Juni ata it is of little interest excepting as a spectator, and a general well wisher that the right may prevail, if there is a principle in the squabble. The following woman's rights story comes from across the sea and is vouched for by a London paper : King Theebaw, of Burinah, the big gest bally and brute in the world, has Kt last found his match in a womau who can assert the rights of her sex. The Queen was recently confined of her third child, which proved a daugh ter. Now King Theebaw desires to liave an heir to the throne, and he resolved, therefore, like Napoleon, to provide himself with another wife. Indeed he bettered Napoleon, for he took two new wives, one of them the grand daughter of the Kan-Pat Men ghee and the other the daughter of a minor official. The Queen soon heard of this. and. as she was unable to go to the King, she sent him a pre emptory order to put away his new wives at once. King Theebaw re-pli-d that he should do nothing of the kiud that he was tired of her Majohty inasmuch as she only pre sented him with daughters, and that he W!i8 determined to froe himself of her control ad to be a -real King. Seven or eight days were passed in angry messages, but at the end of that tim"? the Q'lesn left her apart ments and went to those of the King, j Arrive! tUftre, sue seized tue mon arch, carried him oHf to her own rooms and locked hint vp wlh the bnby She then went of and attended to a ffj.ir s of 6tate, her first act being to cast the two new wives into prison and to have them heavily manacled. - m Lancaster county's tobacco crop will be worth more tban tbe wheat, corn, rye and oats raited there tbia year. Os the question of wheat growing the Philadelphia Record of last Thurs day says ; The possibility of Ameri can wheat being eventually driven from the markets of Europe by grain from Tunis has been suggested by a foreign journal. It says : '"Land can be bought in Tunis, it is said, for half the price it costs in the Western States of the American Union, and it is so fertile that it will yield two crops in the year. The q.udity of the grain, moreover, is equal to that of the much-prized Hungarian wheat Excellent horses, though of a lighter breed, can be bought for a fraction of the cost of horses in the United States, and draught oxen far less than one-half the American price. Finally, while the American product has to be carried hundreds of miles by rail to the coast tnd has then to undertake a long 6ea voyage the most remote Tulisian farms will be comparatively near the coast ; the port of Li Go letta is only sixty hours distant from Marseilles, rather less from Genoa, and only twenty-four hours farther from Trieste and Flume. The fann ers, moreover, will be able to grow a vast amount of other produce, which will greatly increase the remunerative ness of their farms, and consequent ly decrease the cost of raising wheat All that is required to develope this competition is the extensive immigra tion of industrious Etiropean settlers, with European capital and agricultu ral appliances ; and the wealth wait ing to be secured is so great that such immigration, we are informed, is sure to follow French annexation and the security for life and property consequent thereon." Notwithstand ing these rosy anticipations of im provement to follow upon the French occupation of Tunis. American farm ers need not lose sleep for fear of competition in that quarter. The re sults of the French conquests of Al geria throw a sufficient light upon the probabilities in Tunis. The first labor of civilization will be to get rid of the l.-izy Mohammedan population. It will be many a year before the ex ports of Tunis will disturb the grain markets of the world. The Independent-Democratic edi tor of the Herald, as he has recently titled himself, again last week inti mates that he knows something dam- a"inr ntrainst the editor of the ont- nel and Republican. Why then does he not tell it ? He may tell anything that is true that he knows concern ing the editor of this journal He knows nothing damaging to the char acter of the editor of the Senlinel and Republican. His "whole stock in trade," as a merchant would say, as against us is blackguardism, such scandalous stuff as that with which he disgusted the respectable portion of this community last spring ; black guardism 6uch as that heard among abandoned people and drunken men on the streets and in places of low resort ; scandalous expressions which very few publishers are shameless enough to admit to the columns of a newspaper. He has been in the courts a number of times for libelous and scandalous publica tions, and from the tenor of Lis Iste journalistic productions the probability is that he will appear again in the courts for similar of fenses. When he was south, publish ing a semi-rebel 6heet he was care ful of his newspaper expressions, knowing full well that he there would be shot down in his tracks for scan dalous publication. In the North era States violence is not resorted to, to redress scandalous and libelous lan guage and publication. Barring black guardism and lies, the Independent Democratic editor of the Herald may publish anything that he knows con cerning the editor of the Sentinel and Republican. His talk of a castigation is the vaporing of a bombast His talk of a castigation means common blackguardism, at which several men that come to town occasionally, and have not even the intellectual advan tage of common text-book learning, can outdo him. It requires no brains cr moral qualification to be a black guard ; a shameless disregard of self- respect and disrespect for others, and a knowledge of foul language is all that is necessary for a man to have to play the role of scurrillous villifier of his fellow men.

Trial of Guiteau, the Assassin' of President Garfield-The Mur derer Shot At; A full fury of twelve men for the trial of the assassin Guiteau was not obtained till last Wednesday, at Washington, D. C. It may be signi ficant and it may not be significant, that in tbe first trial for the murder of a President of the Republic one colored man was chosen on the jury. The name of the colored juror is Ralph Wormley. After the oath was administered to the jury, Lawyer Scoville, the pris oner's brother-in-law, arose and stated to the Court that the prisoner had given an address to newspaper men without his knowledge or consent, and that he disapproved of such a course. Scoville's statement brought the prisoner to his feet he, too, be ing a lawyer. He said that he ap peared in court in a double capacity, first as prisoner, and second, as counsel for himself. The particular address that Scoville objected to is as follows : "To the legal profession of America: I am on trial for my lite. 1 formerly prac tised law in Re York anl Chicago, and I propose to take an active part in my fence, as 1 know more about my inspiration and view in tbe case than any one. My bruther-in-Uw, George Scoville, Esq., is my only counsel, and I hereby appeal to the legal profession of America for aid. 1 ex pect to bare money shortly, so I can pay them. 1 shall get it partly from the settle ment of an old matter in New York, and partly from the sale of my book, and partly Iroiu public contribution to my defence. My defence was published in tbe New York Herald on October 6, and in my speech pub lished November 15 (yesterday). Any wall-known lawyer of criminal capacity de siring to assi&t in my defence will please tel egraph without delay to George Scoville, Washington, u. I . H, lor any reason an ap plication bo ref used the name will be with held from tbe public. "Chablis J. Girrtac. In t'onrt, Washington, D. C, Novem ber 16, ISM." The court room on Thursday wa.j crowded to its utmost capacity. The assassin desired several times to speak in defence of his rights, as he said ; he did not propose to have his case damaged by blundering lawyers. The Court quieted him by telling him that he should be sent out of the court room and his case should be proceed ed with without him. He was sane enough to understand that Secretary Blaine was the first wit ness. "He stated that he was at the President's side when he was shot He had recognized and followed Gui teau as the assassin before the police arrested him. He gave an account of Guiteau's persistent efforts to get the Consul Generalship of Paris and of his successive refusals. He de fined 'stalwart' to be 'a friend of Grant 'half-breed,' to be 'one not a stalwart' He said Robertson was a 'half-breed' and Conkliug a 'stalwart' Others that were in the station house ou July 2, 1881, testified to the shooting of Garfield by Guiteau. Lawyers for the assassin made no effort to discredit the shooting of Garfield. Their questions to the wit nesses inclined to the manner of ex pression of face and the action of the prisoner when he did the shooting. Doubtless the purpose of their effort is to create, if possible, the impres sion that Guiteau was crazy. The assassin got off several scenes in court declaring that the Court did not dare to remove him and carry on the trial without him; that if the Court would do so, tbe action woidd be reversed by a superior court He called his lawyers senseless, and fools. He demonstrates quite clearly how fit a subject he is to be hanged for the good of society generally. Guiteau save that he is the agent of Deity. On Friday the crowd was greater than on any previous day of the trial The indifference as to the case is dis appearing, and appearances indicate that the greatest of interest will again center in the case. The lawyers for the assassin gave notice that the de fense would be insanity and that the burden of proof would have to rest with government "and that if they desired to offer other evidence they must introduce it in chief before the defense opens. Government lawyers replied that they have their theory of the prosecution. On Saturday morning the first wit ness was a man named Maynard, who knew the prisoner during the past twenty years. From him Guiteau borrowed the money to buy the pis tol from which the President was shot The man that sold the pistol was also present and testified to the selling of the pistol to the prisoner. The Court gave the prisoner the right to take a part in his defense. To the remark of the witness from whom he bought the pistol that he looked hun gry on the day he bought the wea pon he said. '"I was well fed ; it was mental anxiety that made me look haggard." He stated that he learned that some person was lurking outside to take his life, and he stated that a body-guard had been provided to take care of him. General Swaim, who heard Presi dent Garfield's last words, was a wit ness. The President's last words were, "Oh, Swaim !" Dr. Bliss was a witness. He attended the President during the time that he lay prostra ted by the shooting till he died. He hail a portion of a human skeleton, and showed tbe course of the bullet in the body of the deceased Presi dent He said Garfield died from the wound made by the ball shot by Gui teau. The very section of the back bone of the deceased President that was pierced by the bullet of the as sassin was exhibited. District At- tornev Corkhill suddenlv drew from a pasteboard box a section of a hu man bacKDone ana Holding it up in quired, " Do you recognize this, doc tor?" The audience hung breathless upon the answer, as the witness, in measured tones replied, "I do ; it is a portion of the vertebrae of the late President James A. Garfield." Court adjourned shortly after 2 o'clock in the afternoon till Monday. At 3 o'clock the jail- wagon was driven up to the court house to carry the murderer back to lau. A large crowd had collected outside of the building to get a glimpse of the as sassin as he crossed the pavement to the wagon or closed carriage. hen the crowd saw Guiteau many said, Hang him," " Shoot him," and 6o forth. Among the seeming specta tors was a man on a sorrel horse close by the wagon. He looked like man from the country that bad stopped to see the sight When the prison van drove away at a brisk trot the horseman trotted his hone, along side of the wagon. After they had gone along that way some distance the men in charge of the wagon and the assassin' wtJre surprised to hear a pistol shot and the cry of Guiteau as he rolled over on tne bottom of tbe van, "Oh, I am shot I" The guard on the jail wagon quickly looked around, and saw the man on horse back in the act .of cocking a pistol for another shot He had already fired the one that was just then heard. The guard leveled his pistol at the horseman, who wheeled his horse and tied. The guard fired after the re treating horseman. The prison wagon was turned and chase given, but the man on the horse escaped. When Guiteau was examined it was found that the bullet 6hot at him passed through the sleeve of his clothing on the left forearm and left a red mark about the size of a cent piece on the arm between the elbow and the wrist The attempt to take the life of the murderer created a profound sensa tion, and mounted men were sent out to look for the man on the sorrel horse. About an hour and a half after the shooting the police received information that a man and a horse answering the description of the man and animal wanted were seen in the suburbs of the city in a certain di rection. Thither three mounted offi cers rode, and, sure enough, they came up to a man riding on a sorrel horse. When they appeared he rode on at full speed. They discharged their revolvers at him. lie rode the faster, and outrode them into Mary land. They lost him, but met a man on the road that saw and knew him. His name is William Jones. He is said to be a man of considerable means, worth $20,000 to 850,000. The man told the officers that he had gone to the house of Mr. Lord. The officers went there and arrested Jones. The officers brought him back to Washington and lodged him in jail, and gave np further search, believing that they had the man that shot at tfte assassin ; but by and by the policeman that was on the jail wagon, (the same man that shot at the man on the sorrel horse after he shot at the prisoner) came around and looked at Jones, and he declares that he is not the man that shot at Guiteau. He said: "Jones has a light complexion, with a hardly per ceptible moustache, whereas the man who fired at Guiteau was a dark, swarthy man, apparently about forty five years old, with a very heavy, stumpy black moustache and a keen black eye. Besides, the latter was cool and sober, and the manner' in which he planned and executed his work, even though he failed, was that of a clear-headed, determined man rather than of a half-witted crank. Again, the horse he rode was a heavy sorrel, with white forelegs, while Jones' horse has not a white fleck upon it" Guiteau was brought to court on Monday with a number of mounted police riding by the side of the jail wagon. One of the lawyers with drew from the case. No incideuts worthy of mention took place during the day. William Jones was arraigned be fore a Police Court for assault for having shot at the assassin last Sat urday, and in default of bail was committed to jail. He is the man above mentioned as having been chased into the country on a sorrel horse and arrested at the house of Mr. Lord. DISPATCHES. Pittsbcro, November 15, 1881. The bouse of Jease Baldwin, living at Board man Center, four miles from Youogstowo, Ohio, was robbed between 2 and 3 o'clock this morning of between $30,000 and $10,000 in gold, silver and valuable papers. . Baldwin is tbe "crank" who recently created a scosa tion by appearing at tbe treasury De partment at Washington and demand ing gold for $17,000 worth of govern ment bonds. He kept bia money in an old-fasbioned safe, under the stairs in the hallway of bis residence. Tbe party of burglars were five in number. Four of them gained admittance Tbe Baldwin family slept upstairs and the first intimation they bad of tbe bnrglary was tbe noise produced by blowing open the safe with powder George Lew is, Baldwin's son in law fired tbree shots at tbe burglars as tbey left tbe bouse with tbe bags of gold in tbeir arms. The burglars returned a volley but to one on either side was injured. The robbers bad previously taken two of Baldwin's horses and bis best car riage and bad left them standing near tbe resideoce. They ju.nped into the baggy and escaped, going south. It is believed that Baldwin was robbed by tbe gang of professionals that ia work in tbe section composed of Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio, from some point in wbicb s safe blowing op eration is reported nearly every day. A similar robbery waa perpetrated at Erie a night or two ago, and there, as at Baldwin's tbe thieves drove off with the horses and carriage of tbe man tbey plundered.
