BUTLER CITIZEN JONN H. 4 W. C. IIEBLCY, MOP'**. Entered at the Poetoffice at Butler at »econd-cla*** matter. GUITEAU will hang—on June 30th. SCOVILLE, counsel of Guiteau, had twelve reasons filed and argued tor granting him a new trial, but there were about twelve hundred reasons for not granting it, and so thought Judge Cox. OUR thanks are doe to County Su perintendent Murtland for a copy of the School Laws of this State, and de ciaions of the State Supeintendant thereon, with explanations, forms, etc., as revised and arranged by J. P- Wickersham. ■ANT in the county came some dis tance on Monday evening to hear Col. Copeland, among them we noticed Revs. Streamer and Bean and Dr. Cowden, of Sunbury, B. W. Douthett and Thomas Graham, of Penn town ship, and others from all parts of the county. ____ MR. WILLIS COLLINS, of Allegheny township, was serving on the jury last week and this. Mr. C. has been the traveling correepondent of the Parker Weekly Phoenix for some time past, and is a gentleman of education and culture. We had the pleasure of a call from him to the CITIZEK office on Mon day last COL. COPELAND spoke for two and a half boors in the Coort House, on Mon day night last, and with the greatest rapidity, we think, we ever beard a man wpruk for that length of time. He is both orator and actor, and bis head, body, hands and feet kept time wit'i bis tongue during tbe whole of bis de livery of "Some Mistakes of Bob." Tbe lecture was highly appreciated by a large audience and tbe dangers and fal lacies of Ingerso'lism were well shown "P- WE are requested to state, that in tbe report of the county Auditors the item giving tbe amount of borrowed money paid by tbe Commissioners to John 8. Ward, should be $lB5, instead of $35. Also, that tbe amount of $261,- 83, charged against the township of Buffalo in Auditors report, has since tb# settlement been paid by Beaver county. Tbe amount was for tbe keep ing of one Matthew Gant in Dixmont who properly belonged to Beaver county. A MEW phase is given to the Mor mon question by a public statement just made, that tbe Mormon church re pudiates polygamy. Representatives of tbe church declare that polygamy is no part of tbe religion of their church, and that tbe crime is kept up outside of tbe ehnrcb. Religion being divested from tbe question ought to make it an ea sy sabject for Congress tospeedily legis late itout of existence. Meetings have recently been.held in various parte of tbe country asking of congress to pass tbe bill now before it on tbe sub ject. Members of tbe Mormon church now say they are in favor of its passage, and tbis stain upon tbe nation will probably soon he wiped out, and pass away, with its "twin relic" slavery. ANOTHER step baa been taken in the Guiteau case. Tbe motion made for a new trial for bim was over-ruled by Judge Cox on last Saturday, who then sentenced bim to be bung on tbe 30tb day of Jane. Tbe defense bave tbe right, until March 1, to take an appeal to wbat is known as tbe Conrt in Banc of tbe district, composed of all tbe judges of tbe criminal courts of tbe dis trict. Tbis appeal will probably be beard in three or four weeks from tbis time, but no one dreams of any revers al of any of tbe proceedings. July 2d, it is said, would bave been fixed for tbe day of execution did not that day fall upon Sunday tbis year. As it is June 30 waa selected. Tbis date is for enough in advance .to give tbe con demned every legal right yet remain ing, and therefore will not likely need to be cbanged. NEW CHAR TEH GRANTED. A new charter was granted, at Har risburg, on tbe 2d inst., to tbe Conno quenessing Railroad Company, to build a 34 mile road in tbis couoty, from a point on tbe Sbenango road to tbe Weet Penn at tbis place. Tbe former charter for tbis connection, it seems, provided only for a 14 mile road, and tbe survey of tbe best route developed tbe fact that its length would be greater than that, and hence the necessity for a new charter. The route chosen, we understand, will be along tbe south branch of tbe Slpperyrock creek. Tbe capital stock of tbis company is $500,- 000, and tbe principal stare-holders are A. H. Steele, of Titusville, SIOO,OOO in bis own name and $103,000 as agent; Tbomaa P. Fowler, of New York, SIOO,- 000, and J. T. Blair, of Greenville, P»., SIOO,OOO. Mr. Biair is general mana ger of tbe Sbenango road, and a rail road man in whom we bave great con fidence. From tbe new movement it looks as if tbe construction of tbis im portant link would now soou be com menced. ABOUT THE BLIND. According to tbe Census report of 1880, there are in the Stale of Penn sylvania 3907 blind persons. Of these there are only 20 in Butler county, and in tbe surrounding counties, Armstrong has 54, Beaver 30, Clarion 80, Lawrence 37, Mercer G3, Venango 25, and Allegheny 209. There are three institutions In' tbe State for tbe care and instruction of tbe blind; but it is probable that oiauy of tbo friends of tbe blind know ootii* iog of tbese iustiyjUoua. ENGINEERS are still surveying up the creek from here towards Greece City, which looks as if the new Pitts burgh & Western road would go that way, and thus abandon the present. Bonnie Brook route. ADAM M. BROWN, E*q. Oar Bar, on Monday morning, gave a handsome endorsement to the candi dacy of Adam M. Brown, Esq., of Pittsburgh, for Judge of the Supreme Court. The meeting of the members of the Bar was well attended and the proceedings quite harmonious. The fall proceedings will be seen iu another place of this paper. GUtTBAVB BODY. If there be any truth in the statement made in the papers, that some of the relatives of Guiteau were willing to have his body, after execution, sold and exhibited around the country for money making purposes, it should at once be met with stprj) condemnation execration. A more disgusting p»opo sition could not be made. And it would be as disgraceful to the Nation As infamous to all concerned in the matter. ThP Idea is based on that morbid desire in some to ijrjtgesfi any thing monstrous, but in this case there certainly would be too much self-respect among the people to patronize such an exhibition, The proposition to pur chase the body is said to CQflje from a manufacturer of refrigerators, and if so he himself should be put into one of bis refrigerators and frozen to death, or Dear to death. Tb® idea of making gain our of the dead body of the tftyy.er of a beloved President of the United States should consign any man to ever lasting infamy. But we do not believe there can bo anything pepoo 9 in thlß revolting scheme. Should these bp, t the Government, or the Conrt that baa tried and sentenced the assassin, has the power to prevent such a contem plated disgrace. MEETING OF THE BAR.

The following from the Allegbeuy city Evening Mail, of January 20, iust. will recall to the recollection of some yet living here a peculiar char acter—thut of old 'Johnny Triangle,' as be was familiarly known by. He was so called from the fact that he always carried with him a triangle on which he would beat or play for the amusement of men and boys. Little boys and girls generally prevailing at Johnny's entertainments. He always appeared at the "musters" held in Butler, forty years airo, dressed in a queer kind of a military coat, military bat, etc., with cockade and feathers, etc. very gro tesquely arranged on his person. The whole make up of Johnny, with bis deformed appearance, always attracted a crowd. He played the triangle for a living, and his favorite tunes were, "Jenny put the kettle on and we'll all take tea" and "Yankee Doodle Dandy," to which he tuned his triangle while singing. The correspondent of the Mail has the following account to give of him. John Gallagher, an inoffensive creature, wLo lived a short distance out the old Franklin road (Perrysville now) was for many years a charge upon the township—a pauper—yet rightfully the owner of a fine farm (of which he wus defrauded.) No one cared to engage in a profitless defense ol an imbecile, and they who suffered him to be defrauded, knew and could name those who did. There were not many in the city but knew crazy John Gallagher, yet very few knew him by that name. A Fourth of July with out him was like the play of 'Hamlet' with the melaneholy Dane left out. The annual display of umbrella, cane and cornstalk patriots was incomplete without John. Parades of the milita ry and firemen, or processions of any kind were sure to bring him to town. His patched, ill - fitting breeches and rough, mud-covered brogans. were in sad contrast to the well-brushed blue, pigeon-tailed coat, quite too small, and with naked arms protruding sever al inches passed the Cliffs. The gro tesque creature, vain of the large epaplets adorning his shoulders, was an amusing sight. Ho used to wear a buyu cavalry sword but it was an loooyaQoe and vn dit»*4r<M u» waa : Wntl*v, fl«., Jebrwreg 8> 1882. the old sojer hat. It was replaced by a tall stove pipe hat covered with rib bons, colored paper, rosette and tinsel ornaments. He managed to retain a few words of 4 Yankee Doodle and of ,'Molly put the kettle on.' These he repeated, parrot-like, hundreds of times i during a day and in doleful unison with a triangle, was sure to gather the children, many of whom grew to be men and women: their children clapped their hands and shouted as they them selves had done when children at the appearance of "Johnny Triangle " Untii within a few years since was be seldom absent from any public demonstration for half a century or more. I remember when he walked with head erect and sang with a voice not sweet, yet strong. A few years ago I was on Ohio street, Allegheny, and I saw him once again—a hoarv-hf>«4ed. feeble old man, doubled up till face and knees almost touched as he slowly shuffled alontrtho pavement. It was, perhaps, bis last visit to the scenes of his early tri» umphs. Corresponds II <•<*. >*EW ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO, ) January 28th, 1882. > EDITORS GITUKN liistc.ry inform? us that more than two centuries aj,-o there lived a man bv the uanie of Francisco Fernandez do la Cueva. Duke of Albuquerque. lie was one of the sixty-four viceroys who ruled iu Mexico.' This was a "form of govern ment Established by t/h&iifss » continued tol>e administered during the period of the Spanish dominion. It was in honor of tlie Puke of Al buquerque, who was a man of great in the territory, that the Mexican town known a« Albuquerque first got its name, and it is admitted by good authority that <t had an ex is'tance long before the Spaniards set tled here. Albuquerque then has been for centoiipSJmportcnt town. All the highways of any importance tfojj verge here. In our day of railroad travel, if we take Albuquerque as a centre, we have Kansas city about 900 miles east, Denver about 500 miles poith, and *n t fie west San Francisco about 1200 miles ;"on the south tberp is no pommercial city of any import ance. New Mexico has an area of about one hundred and twenty-two thousand square miles. It is situated «n the seo,irtropipa) region, yet the great a!u! n de renders the clii»atp de lightful. The richest part of New Mexico is thai known as the Rio Grande valley ; it extends from north to south of the terrftoiy. A rotin(l o,( * Albuquerque and Islets, the lalief be ing 12 miles south and an Indian Pueb lo, are to be found the finest fruits and the largest vineyards in the territory. The grape cultivated here is not the same as that in the east. It is called the "mission grape," and has been cultivated here for the past two centu ries. The vineyards are entirely with out trellising, the viae being trimmed close every year so that In a few yeara the vineyard looks like a large nursery of shrub trees. The largest vineyards around Albuquerque are owned by Messrs. F Iluning, Santiago Baca and the Jesuit Fathers. From the fruit of these vineyards many hundred barrels of wine are made annually The great miqing district in this part of the ter ritory is about 25 miles northeast of Albuquerque. The Sandia mountains are about 20 miles east, although on account of the clear atmosphere some have supposed them to be only two or three miles distant, and oue who had come lately from the east, told mo that on being asked how far ofT Khe suppos ed they were, guessed theiy to be half a mile, ami said she hoped to go over to them some nice morning before break fast The topH of the mountains have been covered with snow since Novem ber, yet in the valleys there has not been enough to cover the ground. About half way down the mountains there is a strip of pine trees, and in the canons where water is plenty xteam saw mills Lave been erected and from them Albuquerque is supplied with rough lumber. During the summer it sold at $25.00 a thousand, but the de mand has"been so great of late that it sells for 35 and 40 dollars a thousand. The coal mines in these mountains are numerous, and will be poon worked. The coal is very good and produces a great amount of beat. This may be attributed to the fact that it was during the early eocene period that the forma tion took place. Albuquerque is fast becoming a railroad centre. Jt is a little more than a year and a half sinre the first train of cars waked up the halfsleeping Mexicans, as it sounded its shrill whis tle and stopped in the midst of their corn fields übout two miles east of Al buquerque, on its first trip over the Atcheson, Topeka and Santa Pe rail road, soon a few bouses and a large number of shanties were erected and the nam* New Albuquerque was given to it. Now the newspapers say, and it may be so, that our city numbers over three thousand people We have schools, churches, a foundry, gas works, lines of street card, telephone exchanges, railroad, machine and car penter shops, six newspapers, one daily, three weeklies and two monthlies. The daily gets the dispatches every night from Washington, so that wo get the eastern news as soon as cities in the east. Two more railroads are expected to pass through Albuquerque during the coming summer ; this will bring more tre.vel and more people. A fifty thousand dollar hotel is to be built during the coming season. Shanties are being pulled down and brick or stone structures taking their place. The winter so far has been delight ful and every where great improve ments are going on. It would Is: safe to say that at the present time one hundred houses are being built, and almost every day you ean see the sites of fiew buildings being marked out. The climate here is very favorable to laboring men, the mornings and evenings are eold, but the greater part of the dav is like Indian summer. New Mexico might be called the sunny west, for the sun shines about twenty-eight days every month. Yes, th<> fun shines from morning till noon and from noon till evening, and the setting sun, how grand! He seems to rush with terrific speed as he approaches the horizon, and, with a brightness that equals noou-day in the east, lie falls upon tbe earth line. The king of flay ere IK; departs throws a gold lik<* mantle over tLe lofty moun tains, and as you look at them you are led to say, "surely he will stay Ins speed and take a lingering look on tfucb traubfbrmbd glory," but io a fuw moments he is gone, and flashes of crimson light shoot far oat in space, until the heavens dazzle the earthly with a halo of scintilating light. You call your friends from within to wit ness the scene, so grand, so glorious, but it is like all eartbly glory it tarries but a short time, for in a few moments it is goae, and night has darkened the earth, then we look up and see the moon and stars sbiniug in* all their j borrowed brightness, making tbe night a thing of beauty and a sequel to the day. J AS. A MEN ALL. THE DOOMED ASS.4S»I\. MOTION FOR A NEW TRIAL OF OUITEAU OVERRULED, AND TIIE MURDERER CONDEMNED TO BE HANGED JUNE 30. WASHINGTON,, February 4 Gui teau made what was probably his luat appearance iu public this morning, and was taken bvk to Jau ceil under Set): tence of death. The proceedings in Court occupied altogether only about three-quarters of au hour. Judge Cox took most of this time delivering his opinion overruling the motion for a new trial. Jl. I)OF. cox's DECISION Jijdge Oil* b-gan to pead from man uscript his deoision upon the motion [ut a new trial Reading fiom various authorities bearing uoon the case. Judge Cox dis cussed at some length the circumstances aitending the finding of the newspaper in (ho ruohj of '<ut) jury in this eats*. First. As to tbe handwriting: there are several circumstances that make it improbable that at least two of the names upon tbe margin ol the paper were written oy tjietu selves. Second. If—as FUggestecl—this pa per was lying on the table iu the bail iff's room, hikl gentlemen of the jury irj wri'tiuc in albums first tried their pens upon the tuai-gin, ij- wou|d aiiiouiit to nothing in the face of the sworn affidavits of every member of the jury that they did not see or read a paper at any time daring the trial No one could swear to the fact that the jurors "did write upon the paper, white' they all swear that they did not, and there js no reason to doubt their veracity. So far aa tup dispoyery °f new evi dence is concerned to be introduced i 3 as to the prisoner's manner and appear ance prior {.fre assassination. If there had been no evidence Ifuroducefj upon this subject there might be some force in the request, but a dozen or more witnesses testified on the trial as to bis ra&nOPF appearance covering the period of time from March nuM tf»p coin mission of the act. The evidehoe now nought to be in troduced would be merely cumulative, and would not affect the verdict. As to the expert witness whose ad missions after the trial are alleged to have been different from his evidence given-upou the trial, Judge Cox said could never be considered »s ft uronud for overturning a verdict that may have been obtuined through the evi dence of the very witness who, from a corrupt motive, migi t seek to reverse a verdict. From all the papers pre sented Judge Cox summed up: lam unable to find any reason to grant the motion, which is therefore overruled.' Mr. Scoville—'l would li,'ie to note an exception to the rulling of the Court.' Colonel Corkhill—'Your Honor, it now becomes my duty ' Mr. Scoville—'One moment, please. I would like to lile in due form the mo tion which I referred to ycnterday.' Mr. ScovlUe then filed his motion in arrest of judgment. Judge Cox then informed "Mr. Sco ville of the rules of practice applicable to the fili:ig of his exceptions, and alter this matter had been arranged Colonel Corkhill renewed his motion, saying:—'lt is now my duty to usk for the sentence of the Court ' Judge Cox (to the prisoner)— Stand up. llaye you uuything to say why sentence should not now bo paabstl UP" on you V '(juiteau (still sitting)—'l ask your Honor to postpone the seutence as loug as possible.' Judge Cox—'Stand up, Have you anything to say why sentence should not now be pronounced upon you!" The prisouer then arose, pale, but with lips compressed and desperate determination stamped upon his fea tures. In alow and deliberate tone he began, but soon his manner became wild and violent, and, pounding upon the table, he delivered himself of the following harangue: 'lain not guilty of the charge act forth in the indict ment. It was God's act, not mine, and God will take care of it, ami do i't lot the American people forget it. He will take care ol it; arid every officer of thin Government, from the Execu tive down to that Marshal, taking in every man on that jury and every member of this beuch, will pay for it; and the American nation will roll in blood if my body goes into tbe ground and I am hung.' KKNTBNCE I'RONOUNCBD. Judge Cox then proceeded to pass sentence, addressring the prisoner as follows : You have been couvicted of a crime no terri ble in it» circumstance* uinl no far reaching in it results that it bus drawn upon you the hor ror of the wiiole world and tlic execrations of I your countrymen. The excitement produced by audi an offense made it no easy tank to secure for y.»u u fair mid impartial trial, but you have had the pow er ol the IJuited States Treasury and of the Government in your nervine to protect your person from violence, and to procure evidence from all parts of the country. Vou have hail ax fair and impartial a jury as ever assembled ia a court of justice. You have been defended by counsel with a zeal and devotion that merit the highest en- 1 comiuin, and 1 certainly have done my best «, secure a fair presentation of your defense. Notwithstanding all this, you have been found j guilty It would have been a comfort to many ! people if tin- verdict of lh« jury had establish ed the fact that your act was that of an irre sponsible man. Wh it unlive could have induced you lo this act maul tie a matter of conjecture. IVohahly iniii will ill ink lli m t some fanaticism of morbid desire for w 11-exaltation wtw the nal inspirit- j lion for th" act. Ii would Have left the poeple III'- satisfying ; belief thai the crime of pol.lieal assA»--:nation was entirely foreign to the insiitu- ! tiou* and civilization of our country ; but the , result has drilled them that comfort. The country will accept it as a (net that llint i crime can be committed, and lii'r * oiirl will hftvc to deal with it with the highest penalty known to tile criminal code, to serve as an ex ample to others. Your cur-1 r has been so extraordinary that people might well at times have doubled your sanity, llut one can not but believe that when the crime wu* committed you thoroughly tlii dei .ti.od the nature of the crime mid its conse- ( oii'nces. ('juiteau -I was acting m God's man;, and that you had moral sen-e and eon -, i,n<-c enough to re.*os»ni/e 'in* nigral iliiijuity of such au net 'l'ri • ner That'* a matter of opini n.) Your «un testimony 'thow.s that you recoiled with horror from the ideri. \uu .-By that you prayed agn.ust it. nay that ytm thought it wight bfc ja«Wut*d. { This shows that your conscience warned you aga nst it, but, by the wretched sophisty of your, own inina, TOU worked yourself up against the protest of your own conscience. Your own testimony seems to co.itrovert the theories of your counsel. They have maintained, and thought honestly, I believe, that you were driyen 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 im pulse. This may seem insanity to some per sons, but the law looks upon it as a wilful crime. You will have due opportunity of having any error 1 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 sentence of the law—that you be taken hence to the common jail of the District, from whence you came, and there be kept iu confinement, and on Friday, the 30th <lav of Juue, ISB2, you be taken to the place prepared for' the execution within the walls of said jail, and there between the hours of 12 M. and 2P . M. you be haniffd by the neck until you are dead ; and may the L-»rd have mercy ou your soul. GUITEAU'S PARTING OUTBREAK. During the reading Guiteau stood apparently qnn\oved and with his riveted upon the .Judge, but when the final words were spoken he struck the table violently and shouted : 'And may the Lord have mercy ou your soul! I'd rather stand w here 1 do thau where the jury does and where your Honor does. I'm not afraid to die.. I stand here as God's man, and God Almighty ■tfill ci4i>e eyevy who aas had a part iu pt ooUi iug this unrighteous ver dict. Nothing but good haa come from Garfield's removal, and that will be the verdict of tbe posterity on my inspiration. I don't care a snap for the verdict of this corrupt generation.

I shall have a glorious light to glory, but that miser able scoundrel G'orkhill will have a per manent iob down below, where thg Devil is pi sparing tot- him,'. After apparently taikiug himself out, the prisoner turned to his brother, and without the slightest trace of excite ment conversed for some minutes be fore feeing ta'gei) from tfee court voam The van in which Guiteau was taken from the court-house to the jail reached its destination without accideut or inci dent. The prisoner remarked as he stepped out, 'this is a regular Western e nu* fctorw jlv pap or Ghicago.l He was taken at once to his cell and a guard placed over him: This pre caution is always observed in the case pf prisoner* undpr wqtenpa of death , and will bp rigidly adhered to in Gui teau'scase, both by night and day. Tbe jail ofiicials* however, do not be lieve there is the sligh est danger of any attempt on his part at suicide, at least not until after the review of the case by the Court in banc. C'ani* UuUouml Amendment. MB BDI^OH; — A t:oqyeq;ion WM held in Franklin, Venango county, Pa., January 2ltb, the object of which was to promote the movement in favor of a constitutional amendment, prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors. Tbe call for it was signed by many leading members of the different political parties, and the request was made that J-hree delegates of each of these partied should be sent by each township. This cali wan generally re sponded to and the meeting was large and enthusiastic The convention, by resolution, expressed its approval of the plan of securing the election of a legislature in the interest of temperance, through the present political parties and directed its executive committee to appoint emaiii of their number to meet with tbe different political organizations of the county, in 1882. and ask them to declare themselves in favor of the con stitutional amendment mentioned, and to nominate only thorough temperance men for the Senate and House of Rep resentatives. The members of the con vention also pledged themselves not to vote or use their influence for any man or candidate for any State office, or for the legislature, whose record and char acter are not a pledge that he will favor the submission of the amendment to a vote of the people. My object in writing now is to in quire whether any similar movement i- under contemplation iu Butler coun ty, .and, if not, whether you do not think such a convention might held, with profit, in itutler. I am making the same inquiry ol the other editors of the town. Hundreds of voters in the county, of different political parties, would rejoice, I am sure, to take pfcrt in such a movement. The importance of the subject is emphasized by some recent eveuts recorded in your paper. Judge Agnew could likely be secur ed as a speaker for the occasion. Ho would have bjn.*» at the meeting in Franklin, but bis voioe had tailed, on account of a cold, so that he could not have spoken if he had been there. Yours, INQUIHEB. [Wo are, and have been, in favor of Ibe constitutional amendment move ment, as the ouly one that can reach, to the extent necessary to secure the community from the evils of intemper ance. For a long time we have had no faith in what were known as tem perance pledges or meetings, and be lieve that nothing but the strong arm of law can govern that question. A constitutional amendment would be the highest and most poryiaucnt law that could be obtained on the subject and, therefore, we have favored that remedy. We are not aware of any movement at present being made in this county, but presume there will be in time, and for the objects suggested by the writer of the above. Conven tions, we notice, have been held in oth er counties of the State, favoring a submission to the people of the ques tion, and for the interrogation of legis lative candidates, etc.—Kr>.
