, 0 OO a, _ will be done. Mr. Watterson on the Guiteau Trial. From his Washingron letter to the Louis ville Courier-Journal. Accident rather than curiosity drew me toward Judge Cox’s court room, where I spent this forenoon. The effect upon my mind amounted toa complete reversion of opinion and feeling. I had imagined the trial a farce; it is a tragedy. I had dismissed Guiteau from considera- tion as a mnddy-mettled ‘‘knave and tool.”” He impressed me to-day as aman ot acute understanding, and, though a blundering, a truculent wit. I sat close to him; could see every glance ot his eye, every phase ot his expression, the slightest detail of pose and gesture. The mans an excellent actor, He has a capital stage grimace and laughter. I de- clare there were times when he ac- tually captivated me by his well tim- ed interpositions and effective by- play. I came away precisely as one who has witnessed a stirring act in an eccentric drama, wherein all the parts were well played. Guiteau, to begin with, could not have played his part better. Of course he over-did it, because the real world and the ideal world can- not be made to harmonize ; but, asa mimic actor on a real stage, he cer- tainly cut no mean figure, and will go down to history as absolutely sui generis—a_ sort of weird and wizzened apotheosis of dead-beat- ism. All descriptions of his person- al appearance are at fault. He 1s simply brazenly and shabbily and scarcely gentecl. His voice, instead ot being harsh and unnatural, is both trained and taking; not reason- ant hke the voice of Voorhees; not cultivated to the pitch of Wendall Phillips, but a homely, a vulgar cross between the two, with a touch of Mulberry Sellars and a reminis- cence of Rip Van Winkle. He 1s no more crazy thanI am. He shot Garfield in a last desper venture in a life of moral obliquity and per- sonal discomfiture. All the other parts in this startling extravaganza will impersonated. Judge Cox certainly presides with dignity, and, considering pros and cons, I can not see how he could have avoided this droll pageant. On the whole, I think Corkhill leads the prosecution exceedingly well, and has the case thoroughly in hand. He thinks he is surly of a verdict, and [ agree with him. It is impos- sible for anybody to sce this exhibi- tion and come z without being satified that, morally, legally, intel- lectually and sentimentally Guiteau deserves to be hanged, and - will mect no other fate. Adrian Budget- Mr. Sam’l MacRoberts will build a dwelling immediately, having sold his former place to Mr. Metcalt. A fine vein ot coal, three feet in thickness, has been discovered two and one nalt miles east of town, and now we no longer depend on the R. R. company tor coal. It is ex cellent quality, and only 3o feet be- low the surface. “The steam flowering mill will blow the first whistle on New Year's day, and all experts who haye ex- amined the mill say that it is first class in evety respect, and fully equal to the capacitv advertised. Jas. Keep, our popular - lumber man, does a land office business, having sold three houses to-day, which is a tair sample of his daily trade. Josh Billings says: One of the characteristics of aestheticism is to ignore a persons grocery bills. (By the way Oscar Wylde is coming to America and I don’t want him to see this.) Judging by the number of notices posted here, to ‘‘call and settle’? before Jan. rst, I judge we are slowly drifting into aestheticism. We are kaving very interesting meetings here now, in the new church, presided over by Rey. Dr. Hall and Rev. Jas. Howerton, al- ternatively. They are growing in interest and we trust much good Cony Huttleson, who was so se- .
