In Northern Missourl the corn crop hus suffered greatly fram the same cause, ——— ‘Vaux: explanation of the Irritation of My, _ Storrs ln consequence of the report that his partner had gone to Washington to assist in the defense of Gulteau is this: Mr, Storrs does not tlink that the nasnsin is insane; he betleves that he aught ta suffer death—the penalty of murder, Were Cuiteau actually Jusane no adit could possibly attach to the voluntary offer of an attorney to defend hin, "Yo conviet uid hang a crazy man would be whorrible travesty of justice, But te allow Guiteau to escape the penalty of his erhue, ausuining his saulty, would bea lasting dia grace and ashame to the Nation. Mr, Storrs ig a distinguished lawyer of lurge experience In the trial of criminal cases, No doubt ha + has, from professional habit, taken a pro- found interest In the subject of Ciulteauts biental status, and the fuct that the bare sug- $estion of the connuctian with Guiteau’s doe fense of & man who has tlesk-room dn bis (Storrs') office fils hin with deep disgust shows that the «reat criminal lawyer buy Teached the concluston that the shooting of President Garileld wasn cold-blooded mur der—in a word, that Guiteau was and isa Sahe man, responsible for his act. ienee nothing could induce him to lift a finger in Guitenn’s defense, and he does not wish the public to be misted into n different belief, which wight be the ease wore a tan over whom he may be presnmed to exert 0 cor tain Influcnes to asstal in tho défense of the asgasin. y Volk, Walker from Mississippl—and so on, There has bean uniform avoldance of creatures of Wall street under tho Administrations of mt parttes for ninety years, ‘This policy has been too determined to be necidental, It fs founded in good judgment and publie safety. Now York contatns two ine stitutions—Wall street nnd the custom- honse—the possession of elther one of which would be a sufieient renson for refusing to Appoint any man Sceretary of the Treasury who could be subject to the corrupting In- flucnices of that locality. Now York has be- come the great importing mart of the contl- tent. ItIsimportant that the Seerctary of the ‘Trensury shall.be free from its influence ant willing to compel such an administration of tho New York Custom-louse as shall be fatr.and hnpartia! toward the whole country, and not merely subservient to the New York importers, Wall street {9 the great specuta- tlve centre of tha conniry. It ts tmportant that the Seeretary of the Treasury shall be personally and socially so Independent of speculative influences that the Government finances shall always bo directed with equal Justice to the common interests of the country. ‘These nre some of the reasons why It has been the uniform polley of all Presidents nn atl parties to insist that the Treasury De- partinent be consigned to some one whodoes not resto in Now York and isin no danger of belng controlled by its local Institutions. ‘The appointment of Conkling as Secretary of the ‘I'reasury would be not merely a vio- Intion of historic precedents and Nattonal policy, but the most flagrant defiance of pro- priety and justice whieh it would be possible to commit. Conkling Is not only a New- Yorker, but he fs the “Boss” of the very fnetion which seeks the control of the New York Custom-House for partisan purposes and Jocal ndvantage. Conkling woul! be an wnfit person for Seeretary of the Treasury in point of quall- fieattons. Ie has publicly confessed In the Sennte and elsewhere hls profound igno- rance of finance. He-.has been trained in the school of ward politics, Ho ts an intriguer, schemer, and spoils manipulator, He would semploy tho vast patronage of the ‘Treas- ury Departinent to serve his own personal ambition to become President of the United States, He fs the chlef of a clique which onee controlled the enstom-house of the Na- tion tothe Nation’s injury. and which, ever ‘sineo it lost that control, hus been making desperate efforts to renin it. Tho first condition which Conkling mado to the late President Garticld as the basis of his support was the privilege @f dictating tho nppolutment of the Secretary of the ‘Treasury. Dresident Garticld refused nbso- lutely, ‘The second conditlon made by Conk- ling was that he should contro! the custom- house. President Garfield ugaln refused to accept this ultimatum, ‘Then Conkling begun. Uie war upon hin ahich only ended with the assasination of tho President. His friends had been given othor offices In abundance, but Conkling was not content. He must have the Sceretary of. the Treasury and the custonefiouse, or war, When he found he coutd neither bully the Presiilent nor control the Senate, he sought to widen the breach by lifs theatrical resignation, and inflamed the passions of his disnppolnted faction until the assasin’s bullet removed the Independent President and elevated Conkiing’s frlend to Camser gossip is rife in Washington, but it 1s gossip merely, without particle of fact or authortty fora basis, Even the most in- Uniate personal and political friends of Pres- ident Arthur declare that they are absolutely, ignorant as to his futentlons In the matter of Cnbinet selections, He keeps his own com- kel with surprising strictness, and nobody ean remember the tlio in Washington when reliable aventies of information were 80 scarce ns now. It is said that Graut, who was enlled the Silent: Man, was garrilous compared with Arthur. ‘The amount of ig nornnee concerning the anew Cabinet Is only equaled by the amount of interest felt in the matter, Arennirie duel with pocket-knives, end- ing in the instant death of one of the parties and the fatal wounding of the other, occttrred Inst Saturday afternoon at Columbus, Ga, Frank Comer, the Jailer tn the Muscogeo County Jnl, and Jack Tatrick, a grocer, were brothors-In-law, and both known to be “hard men.” Patrick owed Comer $4 for house-rent, sna it was this that pre cipitated the conflict. They met and ex- changed hard words, and in answer to Pat- rick’s proposition to have It out with shot- gins on the public square, Comor suggested: {hat no time was better than the present, and that Jack-knives would do for wenpons, They then fell to carving each other In true Geor gin fashion, and cut and siashed until Comer fell dead with two stabs through the heart, and Patrick was so fearfully cut that he is not expected to surviv Exciting news continues to come from Ireland. In anticipation of an outbreak of some sort among the fiery Celts in and around Limerick, tho Government has dis- patched large reinforcements of police and military to that city, and has also arranged for un vigilant wateh by detectives at tho various Land-League headquarters through: out the Island.

The dispatches from Washington during the past few days relative to the formation of a new Cabinet hive pointed to the proba- ble appointment ‘of Conkling a3 Secretary of the Treasury, ‘She dispatelies from the Na- tlonal Capital reflect the current gossip of the day, and it may be fairly assumed thut ihose nearest to Arthur are feeling their way with the purpose of ascertaining whether [t will be safe to defy public senti- ment to the extent of turntug over the Treas- tiry Department to Conkling, the acknowl- edged head and front of the New York Cus- tom-llouse clique. Some of the New York newspapers have given other indications of such a purpose. For Instance, the Lventay Matt of that elty printed an editorial articie on Thursday which contained the following slgniticant paragraph: vlaims, Where thera fs so much smoke thera Is upt to be some fire, When Mr. Bentley was Commissioner of Pensions he was constantly warning Con- gress of the opportunity for fraud oponad up by the loose, reckless Arrears-of-Pen- slons act, and urging the passage of a law re- auiring the proving of elatms for tne proper protection of the Government's interests. Certain political demagogs, anxious to gain notorlety as “frlends of the soldier,” were netive In securing the removal of Mr, Bent- ley, in order that al new claims for pensions night be rushed through without any im- pediment or opposition, Whatever may be the truth in regard to these Washington ru- mors, It remains true that the Arrears-of- Wo know that there is a prejudice against | Yensions bill in the shupo it passed giving the Treasury Departinont toa New-York- " Gre Hine Ris uterty bunoleas, The Nation ina | Was in itsel€ gigantic fraud on paul twp Seuretaries of tho Treasury from Now the taxpayers of the United Stntes, se ale: A WHS CO by Gurhell tho wrentent man overconnectod | It offered = premium upon forgery with our Government.

DODGES TO SAVE THE ASSABIN. It has beon asanined that Mr. Scoville, Gul- teau’s brother-in-law, honestly believes hin to be tusane. In the outset ho asserted this conviction, and declared that he would not othorwise undertake the defense of the ns- asin, Ilo further declared that tte would not interpose any technical defense whatever, Dut would rest the ease on tho bare plen of Insanity. As to this Intter declaration ho has broken his word to tho public, Ile now demes the furisdletion of the court, and ina more flagrant manner breaks his promise by donylng that Guiteau killed the President! Ilo proposes to prove thatthe wound inflicted by Guiteau was not fatal, but that the sur. gcons killed the President. We submit that these pleas show clearly that Mr, Scoville has at least n doubt of the truth of Ils own the- ory, so contidently and so frequently put forth, that his brother-in-law is ernzy, ‘This viow Is still further supported by tho fact that Mr. Scoville ia making efforts to secure the assistance of tho most distingulshed counsel In the United States, Ifo has re- veatedly, in the strongest terms, expressed conticence In his ability to prove Guiteau’s insanity beyond a reasonable doubt, ut ho strngeles desperately to secure the ald of lawyers who by reason of extraordinary skill and great ability are famous for making tho worse avpenr tho better reason, With this Hine of defense the people have no syin- pathy, They do not destro the hanging of Guiteau If he is insane, but they protest agalnst his escape if sane. "There Is a elass of thoughtless persons who say: “Very well; let Guiteau bo put In an asylum, among Innnatics, for Hfe, whether sane or Insane; if he is sane, that isa puns ishment worse than, death.’ ‘These persons do not reflect that alunatic Is not pineed in an asylum for life, butonly during the perlod of lunacy, ‘Should Guitenu be found Insane by the jury trying hl for hls life, the ver- dict would be acquittal. {Te would then be elenred forever of all responsibility for tho Confine- ment inan asylum world follow, but not necessarily for life; not necessarily for a year, orn month. At anymoment an inquiry could be instituted as to hls mental cond!- tlon, and if, a3 a result of that inquiry, he should be found sane, he would at once go free, ‘Lho honor of the Government and of tho people is at stake In the matter of the trial and the punlshment of Guiteat, Ifhe Is not con- victed when finally brought to: trial, he ts destined alnost ineviinbly to eventually be- come a free man, to walk tho streets with no holt of law upon him. It is in this contin- gency that the honor of the Government and tho people is concerned, Great efforts have been made to protect Guiteau from mob vio- lence, and to Insure his being brought totrial necording to the strict formsoflaw. But suppose he fs nequltted on the ground of in- sanity, and suppose a brief vonlinementinan insane asylum ty followed by his release? Tlow fs Guitenu to protected from mob violence then? Will the Government find it necessary to furnish a guard for Guiteau during Ilfe to protect Its own honor from be- ing stained by mob violence against the es- caped assasin of its Chief Tne St Louls organ of the Geiteau Stal- warts remarks: Wo grieve to Inform our felend, Mr. Joseph Howl, that Chester A.

Itis not iikoly that he expects any favors of the present Administration, or likely that ho would wet them If he did so expect.

It was Deuatly. ‘Tie Trimune Is delighted to learn that tho President keeps a scrap-book, and hopes he iy find tt a sources of profit and amusement in his leisure hours, But lf ho lias got any- thing in It of whleh ‘Tre Trmuxe ts ashnmed, or which It desires to’ retract, modify, or amend In any particular, wo shoul like to know what itis.

The Guiteau organs know this as well as they know anything, but it sults them to pre- tend tho contrary, and raise up a great inountain of gifense out of tho just and propey criticism of the ucts of public nen.
