M niching grapevines with com
'.alks, straw or grapes will help theni
to withstand drought. If necessary
they should be watered.
It has been found by careful and intelligent
esperitupnt that pigs in proportion
to their weight consume far
more food than either cattle or sheep.
Too much attention cannot be paid to
the cleanliness and ventilation of stabler
and pens. To insure the health aDd
comfort of animals they must be kept
dry and warm and have plenty of light
8 well as pnre air and pnre water.

Well rot'sd barnyard manure will sup
ply organic mat'er, ashes will give the
potash and ground or dissolved bones
will furnish the phosphates.
A pood cow has a full eye, a small
* and short head, dialed in the face and
sunken between the eyes, a soft and
. loose skin, deep from the loin to the
udder, and a rerv small tail, a thin
udder and a sqnare bag, with teats a
good distance ft ova each other, and one
which, when milked, shrinks to a small
oompaBs.
Onions should not succeed potatoes
or turnips. They do well after carrots.
Being a potash plant it should not follow
plants which require potash. It
is a gross feeder, and ten cords of
manure per acre will Dot he too innch

onion raisers.
A colebrated French ecricnltnrist,
who for many years held first rank in
the art of fattening sheep, when urged
to divilge his secret replied: ' My
secret? I have none; it is only a question
of fare. Indnce the animals to eat
sbnndantly by a largo, choice variety
and (?r?od preparation of food; that is
all there is to it."
In Denmark, in the management of !
the dairy, rape cake, oats and wheat j
bran are reckoned as first class butter
foods, palm nut cake, ppas and rye are
placed in third class. By the employment
of first and second-class fcodp,
with cut straw, hay and roo's, an abnn
dance of excellent bntter is produced I
throughout the winter.
Test vour fences and find the weak J
spots before the cattlo find th m It is
V, a bad plan to allow stock to ranee a !
farm thiongh broken fences in the fall |
simply because th?-re is r^hirrj for j
, them to destroy. They will lem-rnber j
and feek out the t^ame p'aced in the !
spring, and unless the fences are strong j
enough to resist them will f^rce their \
way through.
While working with the bees, avoid !
all sudden jars, quick, active motions, j
and never fight them. Careful baud J
ling will cure all cross bees, while with ,
careless, rough handling the most, qniet (
will become cross. It is part of the na- ;
ture of the bees to gorge themselves
with honey when alarmed, and when in ;
i this condition they larely, if ever, stiug i
unless pinched.

feed of bay to horses, to follow concentrated
food, is wasteful, and crowds the [
latter out of the stomach before digettion
occurs. This authority claims that
the hay should be fed first to avoid the |
above mentioned trouble. A hearty.
drink of water npon a fall stomach also !
operates to pu.-h its contents into the |
intestines before there is proper diges- i
tion. |
Farmers aro often at a loss how to i
& " clean an old pork barrel, making it !
fresh and sweet. Wo have seen the j
following plan recommended. It is
simply to fill the tainted cask or barrel
with fret-h earth; let stand a couple
of davs, when this should be emptied
out and more earth put in. After two
or three days empty this out, and to
make assurance doubly sure, invert the
barrel and burn under it. some bits of

Do not feed for at least twelve hours
before killing poultry. A fowl killed
..while digestion is going on will not
keep a week. The spotted appearance
of the skin of dressed ponltry is cau-ed !
by the feathers having been plucked |
while the blood whs *till fluid. It is j
better not to pick the birds while;
warm. A full crop and carelessness .
Pin dressing will greatly lower the mar- j :
ket value of fowls. Pack when eutirely
cold but not frozen. Lay them with '
' the backB upward and the legs out j
straight. J

Flying- Without Wings.
During an interview with a New
York taxidermist who is making a
ollection of animals that move through
the air withont wings. he said: "Here's !
* different kind ot a fiver," holding up '
\ beautiful colored fish about a foot :
long. " Of course tie colors f ide when i
akea from the water, but I have colored |
this as it appeared."
Its head was blunt and seemed incased
in armor, two sharp recurving
spines appearing on each side. Its
upper surface had a deep crimson tint,
aad from its side sprang two large
transparent pectoral fins of olive green,
potted with blue. Two other fins were
violet, but the former reM-mbled the I
beautiful wings of some gorgeous in sect,
and by the skillful work of the |
axidermist had been dried and spread j
fr\ ntmncf
"It's the flying gurnard," he explained,
"and it rises out of the water
tnd moves along, vurving from two to
fifteen feet above the water lor 200 or
300 yards, and with such force do they
move that as several dashed over the
rail of a man-of-war one struck a sailor
in the forehead, knocking him sprawling
on the deck. They are eood eating,
and hundreds of men are engaged in
'heir capture iu the Barbadoes. The
Hying fish is entirely different, being
more delicate iu every way, and they
>eem more adapted for llight, rising
like birds from the sea, the delicate,
gauze-like fins fluttering as they rush
away over the waves, turning in curves
and circles, showing beyond all dispute
that they have the power of guiding
themselves through the air as well as
water. ^
" Here's a spider of the genus Lycosas,
that might be called a flyer.
When i' wants to travel a great distance
it elevate* its body in the air and npins
a fleiwaie inrean uuu rices miu mo ?u,
anci finally the wind takes it, anil off
the spider moves, thing through the
air. Thousands of tiiese were seen at
Providence in the last summer.
"Elevated methods of transit nro
spreading even among tho animals.
There's one thing auin>al I haven't pot
?the flying frog. It looks much like
a common tree frog, bat the feet are
webbed, and when it springs from a
high tree the w<-b serves exactly as does
the m<-mbraDe between the legs of the
squirrel, the frog swooping down in a
graceful curve, aud alighting easily on !
a tree several liundted feet away. TinEast
India archipelago and V- w Holland
are noted for their peculiar animals,
all of which, especifll'v ihose
from the latter, ar. striking1./ diaerent
fiom those in other parts of the world. 1
The latest aud perhaps most str'kinc
flyer in this collection is a lizard from
Bornea?a repulsive creature of a |
bright green color. Under its forelegs |
is a curious wing-nne memnrane ui u |
russet brown color that supported it in ; '
its flights. It was the striped dragon, I '
or draco."
Advertising.
Half the business men visited by ! |
newspaper agents and asked for advertiaen
ents consider the newspaper men ,
as a kind of infliction of Providence,'!
which, like the itch, mus-fc take a certain j j
course before being cured. We wish j (
to convince all such erroneous thinkers ! {
that they are wrong. The newspaper, j
instead of briug a sort of visitation {
from tbe lower world, is a public neces- ; |
sity, and for the public good. They, in- t j
6tead of " dead-beating " 'heir way in t
the world, live from money hard earned, t
and for which tliey frequently pay in ,
one wav and : nother two hundred cents j ,
for a dollar, iiusiness men have made j ,
fortunes, have risen frota poverty to j ,
i ?... 1_ ? a\. ^ I . Ui... !
opuienee, simply irrnu u>w wucumi ui i ^
the paper across the wa' . The money j T
the newspapers make is handled by ^
the men who patronize with their busi- [

quently bad men to tell us: "Wenever j
advertise. It's too much Jike throwing f
away money." On observing their busi- (
ness we invariably see their molasses ]
barrel leaking, their dry goods covered
with dust, their sugar filled with flies, g
their scales rusty, their hands dirty, f
th?ir fingernails uucleau, their pants v
patched, their customers few, and their t
success a failure. They hobble along 8
in the world slowly, and are not the r
men who rise from poverty and olscuri- r
ty to riches and emineuce. Show us a ]
man who advertises extensively ami we j
will show you a man who has tne qnali- t
ties essential to lousiness success. Tbe ^
advertisements placed in papers is like ^

never tell us advertising does nnt pay. (

" OLD IRONSIDES."
The Frl^nte'n Tailored Ennlen Down Qt
Lu?t?-The Story of ilie Most FnuioiiM of
Our War fSliipn.
The famous old frigate Constitution was i
formally put out of commission at tbe
Brooklyn navy yard recently, when her }
ensign was hauled down iu the presence j
of all the oflicers of the yard. She now ]
takes her place in what is called "Ivot- |
ten Row" with the Susquehanna and
Ticonderoga, and unless broken up and i
sold for relics, will be allowed to fall j
gradually to pieces. The history of the i
old frigate may be appropriately re- i
called now that the lin?l scene in her
career has been witnessed. The Constitution,
or "Old Ironsides," as slio was
familiarly called, was one of six fiigates
the keels of which were laid j
in 1794. She wm tho third ves- 1
tel built for the United States navy after |
the adoption of the Constitution, the
United States being the tirst and the
Constellation the second. The Consti- j
tution was bult at Hurt's shipyard in !
Boston, which was situated whete Con- |
sti?ntion wharf now is, at a cost of i.
#302,718. Slie was made very strong, |
her frame being of live oak. and her
planks bent on without steam, as it was
believed that tbe steaming process
weakened and softened the wood. Her j
tonnage was 1,335. Stie was launched j
on the 21st of October, 175)7, in the j
presence of a great gathering of people.
It, was because she was so stanch a ship :
that the name of " Irnusides" was .
given her, and her subsequent service :
in the war of 1812 fully entitled her to j
tbe name. She was the most famous j
ship in our navy, and has been made |
the theme of story and of song. She j
started on her tirst cruise in
July, 1798, nnde? command of j
Captain James Nicholson, but she j '
<1 id not come into active service until ;
ISO!, when she was the flagship of j
Commodore Preble in the war between j
this country and the Barbary powers j
Od the 29th ot August the bombard- (
ment of Tripoli was renewed for the j
.third time, and the Constitution made '
her first historical record. She rau in j
to within a short distance of tbe castle | ,
and bat'eries, and poured in destruc- j
tive discharge* of round and grape shot.
She silenced the guns of the castle and
spread destruction among the gunboats
of the enemy. The squadron tinally I
withdrew after doing great damage to
the town. After this exploit the Con- ;
stiiutiou was enitaued iu cruising until
the war of 1K12, during which she made
her glorious record, and proved to the
world that even so young a nation as j
the United Sru'es could produce a navy |
able to cope with that of Great Britain, j
The Coustitut on, carrying forty-four
guns and under command of Captain
Isaac Hull, returned from forei?n ser
vice about, the time of the declaration I
of war, aud having shipped a new crew i
nailed fro-u Annapolis on a cruiso to j
the northward July 12, 1812. At 1 !
o'clock in the afternoon en the 17rh. j
while she was sailing easily along with j
a light breeze, Captain Hull found i
liimself nearly surrounded I y Brake's j '
British stiuadou. The Constitution was '
not strong enough to light the powerful j!
.leet that was closing around her, ntul
l;er safety depended on her spued. One 1
)f the most remarkable naval retreats
ind puisuits ever recorded now bejtan j
The sea was in almost a d^-ad calm, j
iud sails were of little use. The i ,
joats were lowered and attached !
;o the ship by long lines, and !
;lie sailors pulled with a will j ;
o tow tbe frigate out of the enemy's ; '
each. The British followed the ex- ;
imple of the Americans, and tlia flight
md pursuit had become most exciting J
vhen night settled down over the I'
vateis. All night long the race contin- j ]
i<id. On the second day eleven sails '
vere in siaht, but a gentle breeze was :
blowing and the Constitution was gainog
slowly on her pursuers. By night- j
all she was four miles ahead of the j .
oremost of the British squadron, tbe :
Suerriere, and at 8:15 that night the j
Englishmen abandoned the chase and {
Irew ofl' to the northward. The Con- ,
ititution after her escape ran not far ' ,
rom the shoro to the Bay of Fundy '
vithoift meeting a single vessel. Cap- '
ain Qui! then turned lier prow to the j j
iouthward, and on the l'Jth of August a ! .
nan-of-war was discovered from the j '
nastheart, which afterward proved to i
)e the Gnerriere, from which " Old ; 4
ronsides " hud so narrowly escaped a ! )
nonth before. Captain Hull at once j 4
>ave chase to the stranger, and when *
ibout a league to the eeaward begun to .
ihorten sail and prepare for action. J
3e cleared his ship, beat to quarters, J
ioisted the American colors, and bcre j j
iowu gallantly on the euemv, intend- I j
n% to bring her into close combat im- j neJiately.
The Guerriere was per- ! 1
ectly willing to fight, and the com-1 (
uunder, comprohendingr HuJl's movement,
hoi-ted three national ensisrns,
ired a broadside of grapenhot, tilled ' r
iway, and gave another broadside on j
bo other tack, but without, efif-ct, as , (
he missiles all fell short. Tbe Conttti- i y
ution pressed all sail to get alongside ( j
lie foe and engage in a fair jard-aim t

The enemy at the same time were j |

Since the war of 1812 the Constitution

was stationed at rtnnapolis most of the
time until the breaking out of the civil
war, and then was removed to Newport
and continued in the same service.
About Canaries.
"Yes, canaries often die of consumption,"
a New York bird fancier said,
meditatively, as he fed the white macaw
with a piece of apple. " They are
also subject to many other Inng
troubles, and nothing is so common for
thom as to have asthma. Naturally tiny
are hardy birds, and if treated with
proper care should rarely be attacked
by diseaso. Consumption is not hereditary
with canaries, but results from
cold aud neglect. I on see, jaaics nang
the little fellows by the windows to get
the benefit of the sunlight. If the day
chances to be pleasant or the room becomes
too warm the window is pulled ,
down two or three inches. The cage is !
iu the draught, which pluys directly on
the bird und gives it cold Again, the window
may be loose-fitting, and the canary '
gets the draught through the crevices, j
The first notice that it gives of indis- J
position is by ceasing to sing. Then it j
huddles down on its perch and takes J
no notice of what is going on arouud
it. Its owner sees it moping, and with j
the remark that 'the dear little thing j
needs more sunlight,' on the following !
day again hangs it at the windo^. Its j
cold continues and its lungs become ;
affected. A week later it is found dra.1 !
in the bottom of the cage. Canaries ,
ulso take cold from being kept in very j
Lot rooms, or subjected to too sudden :
iluntre of tempei attire. The room in
which they are kept should nerer be J
warmer than sixty deprees. Cold often
leads to asthmn, and from that to a disease
jknown as the gapes. The gapes
it?n be cured, however, but consumption
cannot.
Birds ire often brought to me for |
treatment, but most of them are so far j
gone that in the mnj >rity of cases they i
cannot be emeu, n is easily ioiu wuea
they are victims to consumption. When i
they sleep they bury their heads deep !
in their leathers, and look like yellow ;
putf balls. Their chests heave con- j
vnlsively, and their breath comes hard, j
Their eyes look heavy, and they give a
kind of hiccough, as though something
stuck in their throats. Canaries ougjit
not to die from luug affections, if they i
are taken in hand in time. When thuy
stop siuginir and show sigas of cold, '
they should be placed in a room en J
tirely free from draught, and dieted
on seed and watsr, and sometimes a j
paste made from a hard boiled egg and !
a pulverized cracker. Wo have a hos- \
pital for sick birds which is ventilated |
from the top, and has tho temperature j
regulated by a thermometer. The i
treatment of tho birds varies with the '
disorder which affects them. Persons j
often come in and say that their birds [
are sick and ask what they shall do for !
them. The answer would be as hard to j
^ive as tho reply of a physiciau would j
be who was told that a patient was ill, !
and then asked tj treat him without !
seeing him. ;
"Among tho diseases to which ca- j
naries seem lseir are epilepsy, yellow
pall, sore feet, sneezing, sweating, j
hoarseness and loss of voice. They j
.re also troubled by insects, which j
cause thorn great annoyance and often
i*auso their death. These insects dur- i
ing the day hide in crevices, and at !
L'ight, when the birds sleep, tLey crawl i
Dut and suck their blood, and so tor
ment them that the birds cannot rest. ;
Epilepsy results from too lich food i
There are two methods of treating it. j
The first is to dip the bird in cold i
water. Tho second is to bleed it. I
This is done by cutting with a j
shears tho hind claw far enough i
ap so that the blood will flow !
lud then holding tho foot in warm \
water until the blood ceases to run. J
Sueezing is one of the results of cold,
ind is caused by ihe obstruction of the j
aostrils. It is cured by dieting the
jird and keeping it from draughts.
Most of the other diseases are treated in i
his way.
"To my mind there is the greatest
'imilarity in the molting of canaries
md lho teething of children. Both i
suffer from fever and are pettish and |
rross. The molting usually takes placo j
luring the months of September and j
Dctober. If properly attended to they j
?honld got through molring in from !
our to six weeks. The tail and wing
eathtrs sometimes do not fall out, and
n that, instance they should be pulled
jut (ftie at a time."

TRIAL OF GUI IE A U.
Dr. Thnorloro Pinion, of Auburn, N. Y., who
was brought to Washington as an expert by iho
defense, but, like Dr. Worcester, changed his
view? alter an examination nnd observation,
was put on tho stand bv the prosecution on the
tliirt.etli day, and testilied tlmt in his opinion
tho prisoner was sane. To Colonel Corkliill's
hvpotbetical questions also his answers wero,
" fSano." He thought Guiteau's condiut in the
court-room not assumed, but tho natural outcome
of his character. The prisoner's actions
in Court wero consistent wstii ins naiuro unuer j
tho circumstance. Guitoau a?ked the wirness |
whether if tho Lord could inspire a man two
thousand voars ago Ho cntild not do it to-day, j
Rivt the" witness replied in tho nflirma- I
tive. D. McLean Shaw, tho witness who testified
that Guiteau told him eight or nine years
ago that ho would imitato Wilkes B oth, was
recalled by Mr. Scovi If, who asked him it' ho
had not been indicted in New Jersey for perjury.
Tho witness said yos, bu* the jury acquitted
him. Guiteau again denounced this
witness violently, declaiing his story false.
Guiict.u was inclined to l>o quarrelsome during
the day, and mado another attack on his
counsel, saying: "You ask foolish questions;
you liavo no sense at all." Ho wanted to r.ad
somo of his letters in court, and said he had
ono from Dr. Spi'zka, who wrote that ho had
received ovef 200 letters of congratulation and I
commendation for his testimony, and only two j
anonymous threat! aud two letters from luna- j
tics.
No eooner had tho prisoner been brought in, j
on tho thirty-first day, than he said: " It is
said that I "have been abusing Mr. Scoville.
Now, tho fact of tho mater is, I want to mike
a speech about that. Kcovillo is doing very
well in this ease, considering his theory, but lie
is not a criminal lawyer. Ho is a tine exam- j
iner of titles. He can tell you all abonj your I
abstracts of titles. Ho is a ~ood fellow and a J
lirst-clas'8 examiner of titles, but I cannot have j
Mr. Scoville hero compromising my case. I
There is no lawyer in this court-room but
knows that lie has asked questions fur the do- J
fen-o which have been a positive injury to
the defense. I cannot sit hero when my lifo is [
at stake and t;avo him compromise mycaso in ,
tliis way. My friend. Charles H. Reed, who i
was for twelve years district attorney at Chicago |
anil a lirst-clas-i lawyer, has very kindly con- |
Bented to assume the charge of this case, and I
introduce him to your honor, the jnrv, and the
Am rican people. Ho is a good fellow: Sco- j
villc is a good fellow, too, and 1 want him to j
continue in the caeo aud help in every way." j
Willi the consent of the prosecuting couiihc!
Charles H Reed, of Chicago, who had appeared
an a witness for the defense, then formally
cnterod the case hs counsel for Gniteau. Wil- !
liain Edwards, formerly & clerk for Shaw,
the lawyer who testified that in 1872 Guiteau j
told him ho would imitato Wilkes Booth, said ,
he overheard that conversa'ion, but it didn't j
make any impression upon.him at tho time, be- !
cause Giiitonu said so many queer things. Tlio j
next witness was Dr. S. H. Talcutt, j
medical superintendent of tho Hnnueo- i
pathic asylum for the insane at Middle- j
town, N. Y., who had examined thp prisoner ;
and heard him testify. Witness thought even j
011 Guiteau'a own showing that he was sauo. |
Dr. II J. Siearns, superintendent of the Hart- j
ford Retreat for iho Insane, next testitied; i
thought Guueau was sane. The prisoner evidently
felt tho force of tho testimony against
him, and he in-u.ted the witnesses and interjected
remarks about his free agency beingdebt
royoi 011J>ily 2 Ho didn't claim to heint-ano
now. lie wanted to know whether any
fane man would havo shot the President, surrounded
by his cab no and perconal lriends,
as lie did, wli n ho was hablo io bo t.ira t > ;

mdliou dohars.
Tho cross-examination of Dr. Henry P. '
Stearns was resnmod by Mr. Scoville at the j
opening of the tiial on the thirty-second day. j
A sharp tilt soon took place between Mr. Sco- j
villo and Judge Porter, with angry interpola- I
tions by Guiteau. Judge Porter 'referred to ;
the prisoner as "the criminal," to which Guiteau
10 orted, excitedly: "I am no criminal, j

to'. I am more thought of on the outside
than you are. The English papers are saying
that I am a bigger man than oil Porter, and it
is true." Judgo Cox again intimated that ho j
would order Guile ?u into tho dock if ho did I
not delist with his interruptions; a warning [
that tho pr.soner received with d< rision. Dr. j
Sir??ng, of Cleveland, who had tr< ated 2 000 j
insane patients, next testified that in his opin- j
ion Gnite-tu was sane on the 2d of July and was j
( till sane. Supposing tho lacts iu tho hypothetical
question put by the defen-e to bo

asked a few uniui| ortaiR questions, and the j

and wished the court, the jury aud tho American

i':i; orla 'co and was exceedingly damaging to ;
the defense. IK Maeilonald said that he did
not hel:eve i'i tho existenco of hereditary insanity
or of moral insanity. Tt-is h>st, he ?ai'l, j
was meicly anoth r name invcn'ed for wicked- |
ness or craft. He did nut hcsitato to pronouueo i
the assassin sane, and to nay that lie has born
playing a part in the court-room, ilo entered
into an r.rgituii'iitativo summing up of tho j
prisoner's conduct, to which Mr S-ovillo oh- i
jected, but Judge Cox di In't seo how if. coul 1
hi' h'-lpe-l, sine.; the witness uas giving his j
KronnOs for thinliin; tho prisoner wis feigning.
1 he witness said Guiteau told him ip jail that he !
fxpwtc i to beprononnocd insane and sent to ,
Asylum, hut ho did nut mom to stty 111-10,
for, upon looking up tho law, ho found h? I
could apply fur .1 commis-non to ] a-s upon his '

liu 1 him sane, anil ho would bo di-elmrged.
Gui'c iu, later in tlio day, made a parti.d eonIra
in.ti: n of (his testimony. Tlio witness '
uent extensively into tlio subject of insanity. ^

there were two kinds of insanity?crank in- :

Dr. j.acdonald was cross-examined by Colonel |
Kee l. Inxmo persons, ho admitted, in Homo i
i-a-'-s deliberated anil planned their acts and :
provided for their escape afterward. Tho fact |
that a man previously harmless should without j
provocation raiso an ax against his sister
would ho no evidenco of ?anity or insanity.
Tlio cross-examination of Dr. A. E. Miedoa
a! I was concluded 011 the thirly-foutih tiay j
after which Dr. Itandolph Biirksdaio, of Vir- .
giuia, and Dr. John 11. Calhnder, of 'finiseswe,
were cubed to the witness stand. J'.oih of |
these physicians expr. sso l th*j he.iof that Gui- j
leau is sane now and was sano on July 2. j
Dining tlio cross-examination of Dr. ('alientier
J.id.e Porter objected to a question as l
blasphemous, who.enpon Guiteau broke in j
savagely. ' llow do you know, \ou great !>:<

ran on Iroin this time in an almost incessant |
*t>earn, t'neof the polieenien sitiinu beliin I j
Gt.itiau la ii a l.aml ou his arm, tryii.g to quiet I
liiin "Von ntind vrr.ir business. or I'll slap ]

ilien ;iynin to Judge l'ortor: " You groat big j
giso-o." Mr. lWter was speaking nil thin ;
while; ami as Ik* closed thero was a mnrmur
as if of applause b ginning, which
was cheekcd. Tnou resuming in a Joiul,
dear voicc, uu.l po.nting liis linger sternly at
CJuitcnn, ho said: 'l demand that this-criminai
Ikj remanded to tho dock." Tlio crowd was
ii'.w s iiT?l with oxciteiuont and listened
biea.ih!cs-ly, while Guiicaii himself, without
al>p. a ing in r?:?ii.Z'j.;hat thonio:ion ?ns liijely
hi mean anything inure than it h-ul mmut before,
pr. tended to busy himself with Lis news?
pt.r. looking a * ay l'rom it every moment to
iuak<! f-oaio interruption. Judge I' rtor said
if the court was to bo Ji led with blasphemy
it should be heard coming from tho
prisoner's box and not from th i counsel table,
and then atldod'that there was not a man at
wssB~m
the Amoiican bar who would not brife been
silence 1 aad disgraced if be bad uttered
what Gmteau )iad daro l to utter under the
falt>e prottube of being a counsel. He
invoked action in the name of the
American people; whereupon Guiteau made
au insulting response, ending with ,-31r. Bignioutli
Poilf-r." Ho luithor informed tuo
judgo that "that kind ot taik" wasn't worth
iiia liouor's notice. Colonel Corkhill and Mr.
l>.ivulge iilso called for tlie prisoner's removal
to tho dock. Mr. Reed aud Mr. 8eovillo both
stated'that any measure wliicli would keep the
prisoner quiet would bo a relief to them, but
suggested merely a warning by the couit that
lie wnuid bo placod in the dock unless ho restrained
himself. Here Guiteau suggested,
when Mr. l'orter apologized lor a defect iu his
hearing, that ho was "very stupid;"' and
when Mr. Scovillc said no ouo was more anno}
ed by the interruptions than l>o was, Guiteau |
blurted at him: "'.that's because you're a
jackass on this case two-thirds of the
time." Judge Cox stated that latitude h?d
been given to tho prisoner upon the express
desire of the district attorney, in order to furnish
tho doctors au opportunity to diagnose
his case. It appeared, iu fact, that tho experts
had based their opinions largely upon
their ob.-crvations of the prisoner's conduct in
TI.5- nKlfw.r aAam.iil i.nix tr. liuv/. liof.n
accomplished, and therefore ho granted the
motion to send the prisoner to the dock, where,
however, lie snould not bo exposed to auy dauber,
but sliould have tho lullest protection.
He could not be gagged or removed from the
court-room without infringing his constitutional
lights. Having accepted counsel ho had
waived tho right to appear as such in person.
When Justice Cox announced his decision tha*
Guiteati must be removed to tho dock
the assassin for the lirst timo began
to realize the possibility of tho
rinmge. His confident look faded away ; in a
fiasli he turned very pule, and was visibly terlitied.
Ho said, with an ashen face and a
cringing *mile, "Wo can mako that all right,
your lionor. I'll be quiet aud ait herebut
iho juil^o shook his head. Then Guiteau
looked over to tho dock, wnich was tilled, the
whole of that side ot' tho room being packed
with spectators, and, evidently afraid to go
there, said: "Imovotba' tho room be cleared."
Ju .go l'o. ti-r ri posted the suggestion, but it
was not acted upon. The crowd was now in
great excitement. Soveral of the policemen
went over to the dock and began to move the
peopc out, while bin Hit's opened the nearest
entrance to tlio court-room, and forced some of
Iho crowd out, so as to leave a lictlo t-paco.
Marshal Henry was staudiug noar the judge,
waicuing liiti suuoruiuiues; uiuieau was uu
Ins feut, aud the policemen about him ; ho
woie tho counsel, aud mauy of tho spectator*
near the dock. There was much confusion.
Deputy Marshal Williams went
rapidly along tho aislo which runs back of the
council table and across. As ho reachcd Guiteau
he said, excitedly: "Put tho handcuffs ou
him if he says a word." Then they moved
across ti-e room witli him, he goiuK quietly,
but looking very pale. He had hardly seated
himself iu the duck, however, with a guard on
(ach side of hiui and threo standing behind
him, when ho recovered his old spirits and bepan
to make good his threat to bo noisier than
ever, thanking Corkhiil saicastically for such a
good seat, taunting Porter, and, later on, when
tho cast of his head was produced, wbi^Ji
limited like a whitened skull, throwing the dignified
into convulsions of laughter by calling
out: " That looks like ' Humpty Dnmpty.'" It
was not long before he was poundiug the balustrade
in front of him in the familiar manner,
raising his voice so as to fill the courtroom.
The dock fo which Guiteau was removed,
nnd in which lie was ji'aced on entering the
court-room on the thirty-fiftn day of hiB trial,
is simply a raised inclo.-uro on tho south side
ofther-iow, iu which criminals are seated while
awaitimj trial. It is about eight feet long by
four wide, nnd its fuuiiiufe consists of tlin-e
chairs, two with cane seats for the bailiffs, and
oiic with a wooden sent for the prisoner. The
dock io close to a large window, which, for the
purpose of ventilation, is generally kept open,
and the prisoner when seated in it'was exposed
to a far creator extent than when sitting at the
counsel tnble to tho bullot of an ascassio. A
big piliceman patrolled the vacant space betii-r.r.ti
fl?.? d.x-L- oiiil (tin winrldw anrl kent
a sharp lookout for suspicious persons.
Guiteau, from Lis wooden scat in tho dock,
was as active ami as noisy in interrupting tho
proceedings as when ho sat a: the table with
tho lawyers. He complained that the uunal
guard of policemen about tho prison van had
been withdrawn, and there was danger that
some crank mi?ht shoot him as he was going
between tho van and tho court-house. The
lawyers were quarrelsome during tho day, an<l
tho judge liati to int. rfere to stop a dispute
between Colonel Jteed and Lawyer Porter.
District-Attorney Coikhill persisted iu i-peaking
of Dr. Hpitzka, who had testified tor the
defense some weeks a^o, as a "horse doctor."
Tiio conn-cl for the defense protested, and
Judge Cox told tho district-attorney that his
words were not proper find not admissible.
Dr. C'allendar, ot Na-hville, was cross-examined.
During his examination Mr. Scovilie
introduced a letter recently wtitien to Don
C.tmeron by Guiteau, who in this letter says
that he ia a Stalwart oi the Stalwarts, that ho
likes General Arthur, who wns mado President
by his inspiration, and that he needs ?500,
which, if ho cannot repay it, is to be charged to
the Stalwarts. Mr. Soovillo asked Dr Calendar
whether the writing of such a letter, under
the ciienmstances, would not indicate unsoundness
of mind. The witness thought not,
and Guiteau agreed with him. Gnireau abused
Mr. Scoville for ptesenting tho letter, and his
brother fi>r not giving it to Senator Cameron,
as he had been told to do. Tho witness afterward
suid the wri ing of such a let er was not
compatible with common souse, ana upon ine
hypothesis of the defense, as sot forth in Mr.
Scoville's 'hypothetical question, he thought
the prisoner's ins uiitv was a self-evident proposition.
Dr. Walter Kenipatcr, of Winnebago,
Wi?? superintendent of the Northern Hospital
for the Insane, next testified that in his opinion
Gnitcan was sane on the 2d of last July, aud
was now feigning insanity.
A Mormon Miracle.
Among the supernatural powers with

City by the performances of a balky
hurso whoso owner had hired a bishop
for 83 to reconcile the beast to his
work. Tho imposition seemed to besucce8sfn!
