Harpers 'air Entered In the Post Ogee at Towaada as SECOND CUBS RATTER. THURSDAY,.NOV= 24. 1881. A YEW DEPAR TUBE. We publish elsewhere the reported proceedings,of a meeting held at the Continental Hotel ) Philadelphia, on Wednesday of last week, at 'which a Most timely and sensible movement was taken in the right direction: by the Independent Republicans who believe that political reform can be accomplished within party lines. We most heartily approve of the movement thus inaugurated and will contribute . our best efforts towards its success. It will be seen that the essential aim is to rid the Republican party of the State of the domineering and tyranical rule `of a corrupt combination of party bosses' who have controlled the - party ma chinery to impose upon popular rights and tiample beneath their feet the right of free and untrameled expression through the priMaries of the party. Harrisburg, Philadel phia.and Allegheny, with the aid of the Democratic counties of the State, under the direction of Cameron, Quay McManes and McGhee, banked by the . State Administratiim, have combined to rule the . Republican party of the State and make its nom inations, while the combination does not represont one-third i:if the popular vote of the party. Former ly Bradford, Tioga, Lancaster, Ches. ter,-and several other staunch Repub lican counties were partially under the control of the dominant central ring. Bat happily Bradford and Tioga, are taken out that category, sud the other counties are' partially . I c redeemed, The movement hks for its object the exercise of vigilant efforts to bring out the voice of the popular majority of the party through the primary meetings, so that a real ma jority shall be correctly represented in our: County, State and National Conventions. The essence of the movement is I found in the following resolutions unanimously adopted by the meeting. The first was proposed by Charles Emory Smith, of the Philadelphia Frew and the: second by Hon. Thomas M. Rayne, Member of Con - gress of Allegheny. These ,resolu tions look to securing united action with a view to the full and free ex pression of public sentiment, as well as to the work -I:4.llu:trough organiza tion. Wellohxd, That the chairman of We meeting appoint an Executive Committee of seven, who shall be authorized to 'open correspondence and take such other means as may be deemed expedient in order to secure unity of action among the Republicans of the State for the full expression and faithful representa tion of the popular will, and that the said committee appoint a general committee, corresponding with the number of Senators and Represen tatives from the several districts, to,communicate with' the Executive Committee and promote the objects of, this meeting. Resolved, That all Republicans and all Republican Organizations in the State be and they hereby are eordiallrinVited to co-operate with the Republican organization this day formed. `We add obr earnest appeal to all Republicans' to dilly consider the importance of this movement. We sanuot believe that any but - those who wear the' solar of the bosses about their necks, can see anything in it to object i to. 11:y all right thinking Republicani- it, will be warmly approved. All-such should make it their rule of action and give to it their active support, Let the good results Of the work here inau gurated be shown in our next State Convention. THE GUITEAU TRIAL. The evidence on the part of the Commonwealth was concluded on Monday last and the prosecution rested. The proaecution has fol lowed but one line of testimony. Secretary Blaine :was :the first wit ness called . ; By him , the assassin was identified and the shoOting proven. It was also shown by this witness that Gaiteau prior to July last was a frequent caller at 'the State Department and a persist ent applicant, for the Paris Consil ship until forbidden to trouble him fur ther. Guiteau's letter to 'President Garfield were produced in evidence, appealing for an appointment and finally,threatening that there "would be trouble" if he did not receive it. The Private secretary of the Presi dent and other attachees of the White House were" called to prove Guiteau's persistent efforts to enter the Executive Mansion after he had' been refused admission, Thil testi mony wasjollowed by the evidence of others Who witnessed the shooting. The policemen were examined as to the particulars of his arrest. The hackman with whom he bargained on the fatal morning prior to the shooting, to be taken to the Congres victual Cemetery, which is near the District 'jail, was called and detailed the arrangement Guitani . made with him. These witnesses proved by their evidence conclusively the iden tity of Guitean as the assassin. The pistol 'with two empty chambers was produced in court and identified a 4 the one taken from him after itis arrest. This evidence wee 'followed by -that of Dr., Bliss and other -phy sicians who treated the late Presi dent showink the nature - of the wound and its necessary fatal result. Theline of questioning and the nature of the testimony introduced on the part of the prosecution. goes far to prove that the act of Geitean was instigated by, menge. That it was delibdately premeditated and planned for the purpose of vengeance for imaginary alight to him person ally by the Presidedt. That it was not the work of an insane irrespon— sible man. So far as the evidence yet intro duced . goes the theory of the prosecution is pretty well estab lished. The defence will have to produce strong contradictory testi mony to establish a degree of insan ity such as renders ,the assassin irresponsible for his act. The defiant attitude of the pris oner daring trial is of the zaps(' offen sive character, and has served to intensify the bitter feeling against him. One attempt has already been made by an avenger to take the, assassin's life by firing into the prison van while be was being carried from the Court house to' the jail, an ac count of which is found • elsewhere. Should the jury adjadge him insane, it will require the closest watchful ness and a strong guard to prevent his miserable life being taken, before be could reach an asylum. The trial is one of the most re markable in the annals of crime. The detestation of the monster who could calmly premeditate and execute such a crime will be as lasting as the history of its commission. The oontemplatiOn of it causes a shudder in the mind of every 'one - posessed: of the common instincts of humanity. The reliability - and force of Ameri can institutions, the respect of the people for the forms of law, is ,illus tutted in the fact that such a mon ster can be peacefully and fairly tried in a court of justice and judged by the law and the evidence. The trial may be prolonged :for several weeks yet. As our space precludes our giving the testimony in detail, we will give our readers weekly notes of its progress until concluned. Boss QUay's Premature Growth. Pardon Boss Quay's 'sudden conver sion to Grow, Caven and reform 'has not caused anybody to faint that: we have heard of. If Mr. Quay had in good faith named Mr. Cavell for Gov ernor there would have beep something astounding in the suggestion, coming from such a source, for Mr, Caven is known Ss one of the original reformers and an uncompromising , foe of - such bosses as Quay and their Methods. Besides, the Mephistopheles of the Ring knew very well that! Mr. Caven, being a t man who means business, would under no, circumstances accept an office where he 'could be only an ornamental figure-head. . Quay therefore had a inotiro in flanging Orow for tiro Clams - natorial chair and Caven for the picture on the executive wall. This motive is broadly hinted at in an interview 6f the Philadelphia Prela with Representative McKee, of many of the incidents theein related the writer having had personal knowledge. Many ef the Independent :Republi cans who helped 4r. Grow in his can vass for' Senator where - frequently chilled by the disposition manifested by that gentleman to be more careful not to hurt the feelings of Boss Cameron than to follow the -- counsels of his friends who were unselfishly working for him. He was persistent in his de itiarations that he had assurances that the Cameron bosses would not oppose his nomination. He went so far as to insist that his friends in this county, should not antagonize the followers of the bosses; that no matter who was elected to the Assembly they would support him in good faith if instructed for him. An this way Mr. Grow be came responsible for the choice of members who did not - represent the sentiments of their constituents and only nominally obeyed their instruc tions. We are not prepared to say with Mr. McKee that-Xr. Grow "sold out the Independents," or bargained - to deliver them to the Oliver ring on the promise that they would support, him for Governor, but we,do know that he did the very thinOuay, Cameron & Co. wanted done in 'order to circum yent the Independents. ' Without con sulting the faithlul band of men who had stood by him, and who would havo continued to stand by him as long as there was a chance of his nomination, he went into conferenee with the Oliver bosses and, without the, knowledge of his friends, agreed that he and Oliver should both decline in favor of Gen. Beaver, who had been selected by the bosses as their next choice. We were present when Mr. Grow first announced' or • rather admitted, the conclusion[' reached at the conference he had just held,-and he seemed astonished that anyone should doubt the wisdom or' god faith of the course he hhd pur sued, He regarded the election of; Beaver as a', foregone conclusion and advised those who did not want to get drowned to come in out of the rain as quickly as possible. But, aoubtless to his surprise, it didn't rain much, and no one in the camp_ he had deserted got drowned either. Whatever Mr. Grow'a motives were in the extraordinary course he then puraued, it was evident that he played directly into the hands ~ef the • bosses and came very near reeking the Inde- 1 -.pendent movetnent. It was only the pluck of the gallant "fifty-six," aid their refusal to further follow the cho-' sen leader who had so clandestinely de serted them, that saved the day, by finally forcing a compromise which met with general acluiescence, it is therefore one of the most natural things in politics that Mr. quay should; sub a dd. gest r. row , as a candid , for Give'rpor; even it. as the latter declar ed, thy-ivati noibargain or undersnuni lag to thst effei. One good turn le serves another:4 But if he imagines 'the , - Independent Republicans are going to swallow such pardon board taffy; he is not as smart as be gets credit for.— Lancaster New Erie.

Mr. Donly, of Venango, in a ,pointed siemh gave some illustrations of the Methods by which the . leaders of the machine attempted to control the party action in various Mr. Bayne proposed that a committee of 250, cerkesponding with the Senators and Representatives, should be appoint ed to cond l uct the twork - of organizing.

SECUIMiO UNITED ACTION Charles Emory Smith said that, alter ;consultation, he had prepared a resolu lion which he thought might meet the Views of all—a resolution which would 1. provide for a large representative corn.: mittee, and for a stunner committee, which should be its executive right 'baud. The object, as he understood,it; was .to secure united aiitiou with a view to the full and free expression of public sentiment and to conduct the work of organizing. He then read the,resolu ,tiou;l which, with some aruenanieut iroPosed by Mr. Geist, and accepted by the mover, was unanimously a lop. ted, as follows.: " Resolved.

Wimp:Gros, Nov. 19, 3:30 P. m.— It is reported that Guitean was shot at after leaving the couttroom, the b a ll tasting effect in his hand. STATEMENT OF TIM DBITEIt OF Am PSIS-* OX VAX. The driver of the prison van gives the .following particulars of the attempt to shoot Guitenu - • Upon the adjournment of the court .the van started for the jail, haiing a policeman as a guard sitting on the seat. Before reaching . the Capitol the guard noticed a man on horseback rid ing behind. Near the corner of the Capitol and First street the horseman rode directly up to the rear of the van, and hastily looked through the grating. Guiteau was alone, seated on the right hand side. After satisfying himself of the location of the prisoner, the man wheeled suddenly to the left of the van and fired directly through it. He then dashed in'front of the van and Pointed his pistol at the driver,_ evidently with the intention of intimidating hini or stopping the van. The driver wits 'somewhat excited, and said to . the re porter, " Perhape the man intended to stop the van rby shooting one of the horses." Seeing an armed policeman by the side of the . driver, he exclaimed, " I've 'shot the of a —1" and putting spurs 'to his horse dashed down the last street in the direction of the Congmssional Cemetery. - The police man fired a shot at the fast-disappear ing horseman, and the driver whipped his horses into a gallop; keeping him in sight for several blocks.. The would-be avenges war, however, mounted on a blooded horse, and readily escaped into the country. He was described as a smooth-faced man, aged abOut twenty five years, - and . of, a dashing manner. He had .on a. dark brown suit. The yan then proceeded to the jail, and_Guiteau was taken out in a state of excitement. He exclaimed, t' I have been °shot ! Notify Major Brooks at once. Tell to arrest the scoundrel and have him dealt with as- he de serves." On an examination it was found that , the ball just grazed Guit eau's wrist, inflicting a -scratch. When he left the van he ran and fell upon the jail floor. The announcement of the ; attempt on Guitesu's life created intense excite ment on the streets, and all sorts of rumors were circulated. - The avenger was seen about the Cour,t, House this afternoon, and. attempted. 4 to gain ad mission,. but failed.' Hel was seen to, mount his horse near the. Court House, and ride after the van. It is rumored, too, - that. he hailed from Illinois, but there is no fOundatfon for the report. It was whisp e red , in' the crowd without the Court ; House, just previous to the adjournmenti that to•day would be the last day. 'of -the trial.- A remark was also, heard that if anyone wanted to see Guiteau they had better do so to-day, This would lead to the supposition that more than one person was aware of the attempt that was to be, made to shoot him. THE ALLEGED AVENGER CAUGHT. The alarm was sent out, and the mounted police scoured the country. AU officer near the Soldier's Home saw a man answering the description of the avenger, and commanded him to halt. He got a blast of profanity in reply, and the man roduoff very last, a policeman :following in hot pursuit. The chase was continued beyond the. District line and several shots were fired, the man finally; disappearing in the woods, an officer laid in wait, and he re-appeared as he drove in the yard of a farmhouse in which a Mr. Laid lives. •It Was here 'that the assailant„ Wm. Jones by name, was arrested and brought back to the. city. He is very reticent and the . officers will not disclose anything regarding him. It is reported that Jones is a " crank," and does not seem to realize that he has done anything to involve him in serious difficulty. GUITEAV IN ABJECT PEAR. Guiteau is in a condition of abject fear, and his appearance is said to be tn strong contrast , with that presented this morning in court, He appeals pite ously to be protected from further trio. lestation. OREAT CROWD ON SUNDAY TO SEE GUITEAtt. WAstuNoToN, Nov. 20.—There WAS a great crowd of people around the jail where Guiteau is confined throughout the day. Occasionally a party wag al; lowed to pasi through the jail, accom panied by guards, and the Litter would engage Guiteau in conversation about the shooting yesterday. His invariable reply was: "Oh, yes, I am hard to hit. People will learn 'after a little that the Lord is , with me and will not permit me to be killed." He insists that he must have 4 strong guard of police to morrow to assist in keeping him from danger. GUITEAU ICULIBITA IMISELF This afternoon the crowd became so large that the .guard Cold Guiteau that he had 'better step to the corridor that he might be seen by the crowd, He immediately put on his coat and hat, and brushing himself oft, made his ap pearance..He saluted the crowd in a military manner aid smiling in an in different way. He exhibits great apprehension übout to-morrow. He doer. not appear quite sure that he will escape violation to morrow, as there are stories in eirenla don in the east part of the city in regard to attempts which will be make to shoot him. Many. persons believe that con certed action, with that result in view, will be taken. CRANK JONES today engaged oounsel to defend him in the police court to-morrow. JONES NOT The policeman who sat on the van _ went to the jail this:: aftenooMforthe plupose of identifying Jones, ::but , dared positive ly i,that tier was not the man who fired.'into it: li e says Jones has a light complexion and hardljc a perceptible::moustache,p whereas the man whci fired- at Guiteau was a dark and swarthy mail, apparently forty•five years old, with a beairy. and :Stumpy black moustache and keen- - black eyes. He was cool and sober in manner, and planned his work, even thaw* -he feed, in a way that showed that he was - a clear-headed anelletermined an, rather than that of s halfwitted crank. Agan, the hone that be rode was a heavy sorrel, with white fore legs, while Jones' horse has not a white spot upon it. Jones, therefore, will doubtless be released in ; the morning. One theory is that Jones I was an ac- Compfice. The police, are much exer bind over the matter. SOW SE MET .6.1.4171: DR. BLISS' STORY OF TICId INOICZNTS or PRESIDENT dABITILLet3 LAM -ILLNESS.' The - morning of the 3d ;rairrlnly found Itim_comparatively - cheerful and hope ful, and with a fall appreciation 'of hit surroundings. After the' morning con sultation, and the dressing of the wound, fuming at. my request decided upon his permanent professional attendance,- be desired me to thank individually the physicians!who came to hie assistance so promptly. In the evening it wasde cided to summon tI e , distinguished counsel from\ Philad Iptiia and New York, Dm' D.! Hayes, AgneWand Frank H.. Hamilton. „The time which passed until the • 23d of July when the first rigor occurred, was .remarkable chiefly for the quiet. °eel det4nrunation of the sufferer. At this time, as hi known; a simple but painful operation Was render ed necessary by the formation of a superficial pruesac. When, after con sultation, I informed tke President of the intention to use the knife, he, with unfailing cheerfulness, replied: "Very well; whatever you say is necessary must be done." When the physicians entered the room I handed the bistonry to one of the conned with the request that he make the incision. Without an innestlietio and without a-murmur or a muscular contraction by_ the patient, the incision was made. He quietly asked the results of the operation, and soon sank into a peaceful slumber. 'This operation, though simple in itself, was painful, and the manner in which it was borne by the President in his enfeebled eondition visa, perhaps, as good an 'in stance as any of the wonderful nervous control which characterized his whole illness. ! . When the stomach failed, resort was had to other modes of administering food, which were repeated at proper in tervals for four or five days. at several periods of his illness. , We saw him slip ping from our hands through inani tion. We suspected and 'dreaded some internal. injury, which nu mortal could have dared to(explore., We sought/every available means, of supplying I waste known to' modernphysiological science. Why we 'could not finally succeed, is shown by the autopsy. Daring all, the' President intelligently discussed each condition. with me. He often spoke with feeling wonder of the marvelous ions wnien Bowline could and 'did give a sufferer in his condition, saying on one occasion, "What relief these so-called artificial methods of nourishment have given me ! We should he thankful that science bus so advanced that we can avail ourselves of it in this crisis." About ten days after the first Bab es riptiou was made to the fund for Mrs. Garfield some one of the household in formed him that a large .stun of money was being raised for her in the event of [ his demise. At this be was very much _surprised, and said: "What !" adding, with evident emotion, as heturned his face to the , pillow, , "How kind and thoughtful !! What a generous people!" Etc Was then silent and absorbed for some time; as if overwhelmed with the thought.- I never, heard him allude to the snbjent afterward. ' The fatigues of the trip (to 'Elberon) were shown , in the.pulse and also in the facial expression; I but the President ex-' pressed himself as glad to be at the sea shore, and was inclined to think that he 'ought to have been removed before.— )14 satisfaction was evident to all. The stand of the waves, the salt and bracing/ air; v- allaffordedlom the greatest delight. ,For eight or ten 'days his condition vis iblY and continuously improver'. Upon the evening of the 15th of September a noticeable change took place—a more frequent pulse, higher teraperature and increasing feebleness, all indicated deep seated mischief, which his physicians could not localize, but could only re cognize symptomatically _as due to the general septic condition. On this day I ;was absent from him for five hotria.; the only oceaision on which I .left ' him dar ing , the Agit.) , :lays. . I left 'him comfortable, and on returning: from New Yorklound him only presenting the signs of fatigue usual at that horn. (5 P. M.). Upon my return he held out his hand, and attempted the familiar smile. I said: , • '_Mr. President, I have been .!away for slew hours, as you know, but 'they seemed like an age." . ' He answered; - "Doctor, you plainly she.* the effect of all this care and unrest,' and I ain glad you were forced to take this tem porary relief. Your anxious watching will soon be over." _. I think that then, - and probe* long before, the President fully believed that he could not survive. . . Upon the day before his death be addressed Colonel Rockwell as follows: "Old boy, do you think my name will have a place in human history?" The Colonel answered: ! • "Yes, a grand one, but• a grander place in 4aman beads. Old fellow you maul talk in that. way. • You h iva a great work yet to perform." • After a momenta sileuee he -said, sadly and solemnly: • "No: my work is done." Often during his sicknesi, in his great care forrest after the fatigues of theday, be gently urged Mrs. Garfield to retire from the bedside, even when she herself could scarcely bear to leave. , His heist was not only L great, bat tender as that. of a child, ! - Upon this last Evening I had just in quired of her if she was not in danger of too great fatigue.
