Thiees Great and al1ait. Appearance of the Star Route Ring in Court. News and Courier. WASHINGTON, October 4.-There was a good deal of interest in the courts to-day, the grand jury com pleting their examinatioe and finding a presentment in the assassination case, while the Criminal court room was the theatre of another denionstra tion of the Star Route jobbers. In accordance with the expectation of the prosecution expressed in court yester _ day the defendants in the recent in formation made their appearances with a motion to quash. There was a for - widable array of defendants, counsel and prospective bondsmen, which filed into'the court-room at an early hour. attracting general attention. First came Messrs. J. L. French and W. IT. Turner, former clerks in the contract office of the postoffice department, and who are included in the information as to the conspiracy in route No. 40, 101. After the dismissed and dis -graced officials of the smaller denomi nation came the "Boss," Thomas J. Brady.. The latter was the cynosure of all eyes, especially of the prisoners in the dock in the case under consid -eration. They doubtless felt mean in =the presence of such royal thieves. Brady was accompanied by S. P. Brown, his co-conspirator. They were _followed by Col. Bob Ingersoll, who will attempt to prove there is no hell --for S. P. Brown, and that the whole business is only a mistake of Moses. There were the Hon. Joe Wilson and Enoch Totten, both eminent lawyers, and Chanler, and there was the Hon. J. Hale Sypher, an eminent cipher. Behind these came Hallet Kilbourn and other distinguished gentlemen, who were there in the character of possible bondsmen. Altogether it was a goodly sight, this remarkable assembly, and might have been very impressive to a jury Opposed to this array of criminals, legal lore and hard cash, were the bent form, gray hairs and knock knees of Col. Billy Cook. The latter was fully equal to the situation -and contemplated the crowd with a cynical smile. When Mr. Totten annaanced that they had come there for the purpose of entering a motion to quash and fix a day for the argu ment, Col. Cook got on his wiry legs and demanded -that the defence comply with the law and furnish * bail. Then the side issue of bail was taken up, Jere Wilson and Col. lInger sol! going into the merits of the in formation at some length. Every time this was done Col. Cook brought them back to the point at issue, and sarcastically insinuated that the quickest way to reach the issue was to comply with the law and furnish bail. When the case came up the Govern ment would soon show whether it had evidence or not to sustain the counts in the information. When the wran gle closed the case was left just where it began, the motion to quash was not - entered, the -Judge desiring a day to look over the'information so he could determine the amount of bail, after furnishing which the defence can file their motion. So "Little Billy" Cook, as the Ring sters call him, won the first skirmish in the Court. Brady & Co. gave their j~roal recognizance to appear in Court to-morrow morning. -Some weeks ago we took the ground that the advocates of prohibition would. damage the cause of temperance in South Carolina if they did not cease to press their movement. The result in North Carolina is proving the correct *ness of this position, for some time before the election in that State on prohibition, by which the movement *was defeated by more than a hundred thousand majority, the city of Char lotte elected a dry ticket and refused to grant licenses. Now that the fight *ha been made and lost in the State, the city council of Charlotte has re considered its action and decided to grant licenses for the sale of spirituous liquors as heretofore. This should be a lesson to the ultra prohibitionists in this State. They had better let well enough alone. ([Anderson ITntelligencer. South Carolina is probably the only State in the Union that can point with pride to two ex-Governers sinm ultaneously in the clutches of the law. R. K. Scott is in tronble for murder; Franklin J. Moses is in jail for swind ling a citizen in the paltry sum of twenty-five dollars. Daniel Cham berlain is the next in order.

THOS. F. GRENEKER, EDTORSt W. H. WALLACE, r t NEWBERRY, S. C. THURSDAY, OCT. 13, 1881. A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. The Herald is in the highest respect a Fan ily Newspaper, devoted to the material in terests of the people of this County and the State. It circulates extensively, and as in Advertising medium offers unrivafled ad vantages. For Terms, see first page. Guitean's Confession. The New York Herald prints a long confession from the assassin Guiteau. The narrative begins with the presidential campaign. Guiteau was very anxious to be sent out as one of the campaign speakers, and hung around the Republican head quarters in New York, besieging the committee for week after week. One speech,entitled Garfield against Hancock, he thought was a remark able performance. This he had printed, but got no opportunity to deliver it except to a colored meet ing in New York. After Garfield's election he went to Washington and sent in his application for the Austrian mission, accompanying his application - with his great speech. He wrote numerous notes and letters to the President and to 5 Secretary Blaine. Finding he could not get the Austrian Mission he applied for the Paris Consulship. While this application was pending, he being sanguine of the appoint ment, it sudder ly occurred to him that the President must be "re moved ;" that it was necessary for the preservation of the country and the Republican party ; that if the President were out of the way the party would become nited ; other wise the government would fall into the hands of the "rebels and Democrats." This impression kept growing upon him till he felt him self impelled by divine authority to remove the President. He thus describes his conception of the deed: My conception of the idea of re moving the Presidcnt was this :Mr. Conkling resigned on Monday, May 16, 1881. On the following Wed nesday I was in bed. I think I re tired about 8 o'clock. I felt 'de- 1 pressed and perplexed on account of t the political situation, and I retired much earlier than usual. I felt wearied in mind and body, and I was in my bed about 9 o'clock, and I was thinking over the political situation, y and the ider. flashed through my brain that if the President was out of the way everything would go better. At first this was a mere impression. It startled me with renewed force, and g I began to read the papers with my g eye on the possibility that the Presi- m, dent would have to go; and the more I read, the more I saw the complica tion of public affairs, the more was I impressed with the necessity of re moving him.p This thing continued for about two weeks. I kept reading the papers A and kept being impressed, and the idea kept bearing and bearing and bearing down upon me fhat the only way to unite the two factions of the Republican party and save the repub- c lic from going into the hands of the 1; rebels and Democrats was to quietly t1 remove the President. ti He then proceeds to recount the b attempts to carry out his purpose. l( He went to the Christian Church . on Sunday and saw that the Presi- a ent sat by a window. He made up his mind to come back the next Sunday and shoot him there ; but C e learned in a day or two that the te President was going to Long pi Branch with Mrs. Garfield. al He went to the depot for the w~ urpose of "removing" the Presi lent. He gives as his reason for iot killing him then that "Mrs. arfield looked so thin and clung o his arm so tenderly that I did ot have the heart to fire on him." h Knowing when the President vould return from Long Branch e went again to the depot for the S >urpose of killing him. It was a V ot, sultry day. While waiting in fc ~he ladies' room he says, "I thought 01 t all over and made up my mind fi' hat I would not fire that day. I id not feel like it" ec He next followed the President a rhile out riding with his son and ~nother gentleman, but did not get ti; chance to shoot. He next followed him as he went o lone to Mr. Blaine's house ; he raited in the alley for the President S4 o>pass by on his return ; but when is e returned Mr. Blaine was with an Lm. ml Next was the successful attempt t the depot July 2nd. br, The amount of frand and rascli y that is being unearthed and >rought to light in the various de >artments at Washington is stu- 1 )endous. Only a few weeks ago Capt. How ;ate. of the Signal Service Office. was detected in embezzlements to imo extent of nearly S100,000. Thos. J. Brady, who was First tssistant Postmaster General under layes. is now on trial with several >thers for defrauding the govern neut out of millions by fraudulent :ontracts in connection with the star Route mail service. John Sherman, Hayes' Secretary )f the Treasury. is charged with aving got immensely rich out of iis salary. Astounding revelations ire promised soon in connection vith the Treasury Department. The latest development of rascal ty is in connection with the Pen ;ion Office. A ring of clerks in his office, aided by outsiders, have ucceeded, by means of forged !]aims, in swindling the govern nent out of millions of dollars. )ne of the clerks named Geo. W. Black has been caught up with. 'he detectives claim to be in pos. ession of some startling facts that vill be made public soon. The whole system of c:vil service, ,eems to be permeated with rotten less. The death of President Garfield lid not stop the hostility between ;he "Stalwarts" and "Half Breeds" .n tbe State of New York. This vas the issue in electing their dele rates to the recent State Conven ion. In Conkling's own County, Utica, the contest for delegates was very close ; the two factions held ;eparate meetings and elected a lifferent set of delegates, the Stal varts being headed by ex-LT. S. senator Conkling, and the Half Breeds, or Garfield Republicans, by ?x-State Senator Lowery. When he State Convention met in New Eork City the 5th the Half Breeds ,vere in a majority, even leaving >ut the contesting delegations. fter a short, sharp and decisive ight they got entire control of the Jonvention and had things their >wn way'. The State Fair Will begin November 8th, and. vill last three days. The Premium .st is to hand. It shows a deter nination on the part of the officers o do things on a liberal scale. During Fair Week there will be aces every day at the Fair Grounds. some of the best horses on the' turf vill be on hand.

A party was tried before Judg~e( aekey at Sumter last week on the i barge of carrying a concealed dead. r r weapon.

From our Regular Correspondent. \VASluINUTON, 1). C., Oct. 6, 18S1. More than usual interest will centre 2 the National Capital for some time, s sveral events of public concern are etering upon the scene. The indict ient already found against Guiteau is be tried, and the wretch probably uIg ; the star route cases have al eady been called into Court for a be inning ; the Senate is about to meet a extra session, and the Supreme 'ourt convenes on Monday next. All hese thiags, in connection with the in rest attaching to a change of Admin stration. are likely to make Washing )n as interesting as it is in mid-win er. Our District criminal court is a ribunal of National and extraordinary aterest when its history, or the his ary of its trials is reviewed. It has ried Surrati for the murder of Presi .ent Lincoln, tried the notorious safe urglary cases, the Ottman Treasury obbery case, besides Congressmen for iurder, forgery and bigamy, and sent x-Senators and other former high fficials to the penitentiary. Next to the Guiteau trial the people f the country are probably most in erestec in the star route prosecutions. 'hese cases have been thoroughly ex osed through the press and there is a onviction in the public mind that here was under the direction of Mr. 3rady a criminal waste of public 1oney, to say the least. The enor aous expenditure for that service, onsuming the entire appropriation or the fiscal year before the year was alf gone, and creating a deficieney mounting to millions ; the excessive acrease of the pay of certain contrac ors to five or ten times the amount of heir original contracts, are facts be end controversy and circamstauces alculated to raise a presumption of rrong. When these things are taken a connectioL with certain other evi ences, and the accumulation of large ortunes by the officials and contract rs, they rot only raise the presump ion but inspire a conviction in the ublic mind which only a thorough learing up will ever remove. Even F the accused escape conviction upon echnicalities, or for lack of legal proof f guilt, the circumstances are so trong that a general doubt of inno ence will still exist. Since the adjournment of the Su reme Court there has been a vacancy reated, caused by the death of Justice hifford, and Justice Hlunt, it is under tood, is still incapacitated for service. ustice Field is not expected here for averal weeks, and the Court will berefore meet with three members bort. There is much anxiety among be bench and the bar on the subject f the filling of the vacancy caused by be death of Justice, Clifford. There ;no reliable information as to whether 'resident Arthur proposes to send in nomination for the vacancy at the pecial session of the Senate, or thether he will wait until the regular assion in December, and it is supposed bat he may come to some conclusion i the matter during his present stay i New York, after consultation with is friends. The justices of the Su reme (Court would be glad if the va ~ney should be promptly filled, as it ould help very much to lighten their ~bors ; but there are difficulties in 1e way which the IPresident fully ppreciates, and which may possibly idiuce him to delay making a nomii ation until D)ecember. There will a a great pressure to take the new >pointee from the East, as only one :tive miember of the bench, Mr. Jus ce Bradley, is now from that section, id Justice Clifford was the only ember from New England. But the aims of the South will also be pre oted and urged with persistency, as has had no representative on the mech of the Supreme Court since the ys of the war. Justice Woods, who as lately appointed, although nomi Lly from a Southern Circuit, had iver given up his residence in Ohio, ich State has to-day no less than ur members of the bench of the Su -ee Court. Owing to all the cir izstances, including the peculiar vision of parties in the Senate, the ling of this~ vacancy by the President il necessarily be surrounded with ore or less embarrassment, and will q,uire thle exercise of sound judg ent and diseretion. It is now :mid to be President rthur's intexion not to avail him If of the extra session of the Sen a for the appointment of a new binet, bhut to wait until Congress aets in D)ecem,ber. IJe thinks, it is id, that the C-azinet ministers now office should remain to make the nual reports on the operatiora. of ir respective Departments, and at in the meantime he will have tter opportunities for ascertai ning a current of popular sentiment as what his Ad annistration should he. this report is correct the President I of course have the benefit of the asenit Cabinet ministers' repQrts on a publie business in a retrospective ise ; and to that extent they may ye him in getting up his own mues ~e to Congress. But if shortly er the mzeeting of Congress the ~sent Cabinet is to go out, its mem s can aid him but little in shaping prospective features of his mes e. In laying down his policy for future it would evidently be of antage to him to hayve his future stitutional advisers at his elbow. Doubtless these maitters were all ermined upon after consultation h his friends during the Presi ts' recent visit to New York. But one here appears authorized to 1 ak by the card.
