Whether intentional or acchtental, this disagreement of counsel is all In Guiteau’s favor, ——ee ‘Ture scholar in politics ald not thrive ine the recent elections, Not only was. the In- gentions Astor retired to private life, and his volitleal boon emupanion, Mr, Robert Ray Mumilton, In the same district, disgracefully beaten, but two other upper-cluss men, who deserved better things, met with a stuilar fate. Oneof these was Mr. Fred Seward, the son of Lincoln’s Secretary of State, who was n candlinte for ine Sinte Senate In Reb- ertson’s old Westchester district, ‘The other was Heury Cabot Latge, fate editor of the International Review, who was defented for the Mussnchusetts Senate, Ie was -n candidate in Butler’s Essex dlatrict. Mis Opponent was a young Harvard graduate who, strange to any, was bitten with Biitler’s greenback malady, and found it effectual with the shoemakers In that reglon, ‘The defeat of Seward and Lodge Is 2 reat mls: fortune, ‘Thuy represented the opposit pole {n polities from Astor and Hamilton, and worusell-respecting, clean-handed, fndepend- mt, and intelligent eltizens who had no yympathy with the machine or any of its works, nd Tur New York Journal of Commerce charges that tho system of accounting in use Ju the mint is “a disgrace to all concerned in ft? ‘There Ja an apparent discrepancy bo- tween the reported profits arising from tho coinage of silver and the amounts paid into the Treasury, For the fiscal year ended June 80, 1879, alone, this dliference seems to Amount to $404,000, due allowance being iiade for wastage and cost of distribution as por the report of the Director, Mr. Burch- orvd’s attention lins been called to these xrave diserepaneles, and the. only explana- tion he has to offer is that one report “may” represent the actual colunge of the year and the other bo based on the purchases of each year, But the Journat of Commerce says this Is impossible, 13 the profits onsilver have never been charged In the quarterly reports except on tho basis of coluaze, So far the presumption fs merely one of enreless book- keeping, and the facta cited, if not more com: + pletely explained, may domand s thorough investigation. ‘The subject fs important, as the'vstimated profits on the colnage of silver since 1876 have been $10,500,000, Tie National Republican Committeo has deen slow In formulating ant publishing tts vlan for representation in the next General Convention; but there need be no apprehen- sion that the rule, when It Is announced, will not be radical enough, ‘There Isa yery gen- eral deatreto have Republican constituencies, as such, more fully represeuted than they areatpresent, ‘ho Springtiold Republicun has suggested a method of accomplishing tila object which It believes would be botit simple and eficaclous. It wauld have each Vongreastonal district, Republican or Dena- cratic, represented by one delegate, and each Slate by two delegates-nt-larwe, Then It would give each Republican district one ad- tional delegate, and each State haying ono or more Republican Senators one additional tvlegate or delexates-at-large. ‘The zepre- bvutution of uluorities In Democratic dlg- tricts would thus be amply provided for, and due preponderanee would be given fo the Renubiiean constituencles, ‘The memberstilp of the National Convention, supposlug Con- gress to be constituled as at present, would be ns follows: Benntoriul deteantes-nt-large, Representative districts...

Lt ts a well- known fnet {n polities that a perfect eoali- tion of distinct factions Is next to inpossibte. Tho mere fact of unton repels o certain number of voters. In Virginia, however, Cameron hat to contend against straleht- out Republican bolls in many tegls- Intive districts, which probably cost him several thousand votes in the axguregale. Jie will be tho first anti-Bourbon over elected Governorof Virginia when tho Bour- bons wero all qualitied to vote. Until 184 the Old Démlnton always voted for native Virginians for Jresident, the Inst being Willinin 1, Crawford, who was not clected, ond from that time on til tha War the stralght Bourbon Demoeratic ticket was In- variably chosen. Bell carried the State by 9 plurality in 1800, As soon as the Bourbons had their disabilities removed after the War they began voting the Democratic ticket agaln, and controled the State until 187, when the ReadJusters under the load of Mahone grabbed the Legislature, though they lost .the Governor, Now thoy have ob- talued complote control of all the branches of the State Government, and the Bourbens have recelyed notice to quit. It ls x surpris- ing and complete victory. A reaction Is. beginning to set in among the Irish leaders in regard to Gladstone and his great frist} Land bik ‘The bit 1s work- ing far more favorably for the tenants than the leaders lind betleved would be the cnge, and ft Is rapldty becoming popular with the irish farmers, who are coming forward by tens of thousands to clalin its benefits, O'Leary, member of the Fenian riumyteate, has Just written a letter from Parts, declar- Ing that, while he mulninins his secession principles and Is resolved tocombat England, fhe deprecates the mallgning of Englishmen. Gindstone, fie says, ling given Ireland a Land nce such as nobutly a few years ago eoull have hoped for, ,and Forster ts very much better thin most of the Lrish Secretaries sent over to Dublin Castle, Up to Saturday night 45,000 Irish tenants hind applicd to the Land Court to fix thelr rents, ‘hese are in addition to thousands with whom the landlords have compromised by reducing the rents 20 to 30 per cent, and fn some cises more. The Land Court cuts down the rentals from one-fourth to one third, and In some cases one-half, ‘The ag- gregate reductions fn the istand from pres- ent Indicationé will exceed 5 iillions of dollars. ‘This great sum saved will holp to amelivrate the condition of the people and ward off famines. It will also enable the tennnt-farmers to pay tue Inborers better wages for thelr work. It will also reduce the selling price of the land sume 30 per cent, and thereby give the farm. ers a chance of buylng out the landlords, which fs the real nnd final solution of the Irlsh question, After Gladstone's dispute with Parnell is settled the Irish will oc- knowledge the vast value of his Land bill to them. « Penitars the most significant part ot the eall for the Protectionist conventions shortly to meet In this city and In New York is the demand for “the immediute remedy of In- Jurles done by the decisions of the ‘Treasury Department.” ‘The veference to the sugar cases, the cotton-tie rulings, and kindred de- cislons ts plain enuugh to one who has kept tho run of the subject, but to the mass of the people the allusions are possibly meaning- less, and are designed by the projectors of the conventions to be so, ‘The sugar-refluers maintain that they should have the privileze of bringing In high-grade sugars artifictatly colored ty resemble low-grades at the rate fixed by Inw for the latter, ‘The hardship of the fron men, who object to the cotton-tle deelsion, Is just tn the other dlrection. ‘They desire to have the lron cotton-ties which are provided with patent fastenings classed as hoop-lron, on which the duty is 70 per cent, ‘The Treasury Department, on the other hand, has held that fron cotton-ties, not being known when the turiif was framed, and being plainly amanttactured product, must come in under the title of “things not otherwise provided for,” on which the duty ls 35 per cent, or one-half that on “hooplron.” Tho differ- ence ts an important one, not only to the fron. manufacturers but to the cotton-plant- ers, Ono of the former Indiscreotly sald, in frecent speech advocating the higher duty, that a decision on the subject in favor of the manufacturers “ would inake a dliference of perhaps 10 or 12 cents a bale to the planter.” Now a siinple calculation-in mental arithme- tic shows that n difference of 10 or 13 cents on the bale for the whole cotton-crop would amount to. $700,000, ‘The tax might not be a hardship to any Individual planter, though, as it plahiy could not bo shifted upon the forolan consumer, it would be n serlous bur- den In tho aggregate, But the proposition to ralse the tax for the express purpose of shut- tng off $700,000 of revenue and giving It to the very fow mianufacturers ,of cotton-tles, already amply protected by a duty of 35 per cent, does not commend Itself to the judg- ment of disinturested observers, QUITEAU'S UNDELIVERED SPEECH. Tur Tamune published yesterday morn- ing the speech which has been prepared by Cuitenu for delivery in court, It ly not Ike. ly that he will be given an opportunity to anake this or any other address to the court during his trial, and It would bo of Uttte ine terestand less avail after the ayidence hat been heard, But the publication of the specch at this tine Is linportant, because x0 deliberate an utterance has a dircot bearing on the question of Gulteay’s sanity, ‘There hus been un effort to trace u resem- Diance between Gulteau’s cnse and that of Lawrence, who shot at President Jackson in 1885, and was subsequently acquitted on the ground of Insanity, A comparison of Law: Tence's conduct and utterances during hls triul with the plea prepared by Gulteau will aorye to show that, If there was reason to ba- Heve the former was Insane, thore Is still bet- tur ground for regarding Gulteau as morally Tesponsible, ‘The hearlug and conduct of two men tuder similar elroumatnnces could not well bo more strikingly at varlance, Juwrence’s attempt on President Jaok- son's life was made asthe funeral procession of a deceased Congressiuan was passing through the rotunda of the Capito! building, ‘The plstol-cap wissed fire, and Luwrence was selzed while in the act of drawing a second pistol, ‘This occurred on Jan, 80, 18%, and Lawrence was brourht to trinl the following Apri, He was quiet and nnsensattonal tn his demeanor, bat tuciturn nnd morose. The District-Attorney had seareely bern hs opening speech on tho trial, however, befare Lawrence jumped to Ws feet, demanded by What tight the personal indignity of an are raiguinentiind been pat upon hin, and addods “Lilesire to know if L, who claim the crown of the United States, Ikewlsa the crown of Great Britain, am to bo treated thus? Throughout the entire trial Lawrence con stanily interrupted the proceedings, in spite of the efforts of his own counsel and the olllcers of the courtto keep him quist, He dented repeatedly tha nutnority of the court to try him, reminded the Judge and others that they were his subjects, and fusisted that he attempted ‘to shoot tha President because he and the United States kopt him outof the position and money to which ho was cntitled. ven Lawrence's counsel asied that the prisoner be removed from the court-room and the trial be. allowed to pro- ceed In hisabsonce, But thls request was denied, ‘Phure was evidence that Lawrence at other times had assumed to be King Rich- ard UL and helr to the Dritish ‘crown, a3 well us King of tho United States. ‘The jury found him nat gullty on the ground that he was “der the Iniluetiee of insanity at the thne he committed the act.” ‘The record of Lawrence's trial: furnishes abundant ovidence elthor that the man was actually insane or that ho slinuiated Insanity with great ingenulty and admirable success. A careful porusul of the plea which Guitent has prepared for hls own defense wilt lend to the conviction that he is not Insane, and that lus clfort to pose nsn lunatic fs exceedingly Me, Guitenu starts of by contendiug Gen, Gar- fleld died from matpractice, and that “the tluctory who mistreated hint ought to bear the odium of his death, and not his assail- Ant’? ‘This is not the plea of an Insane man, but an old quibble of criminal law whieh was discarded by Scoville, Guiteau’s counsel, a8 too transparent and weak to be of sorvice to Ils client. Guitenu himself 1s willing totake advantage of this or sny other pretext that might ald him to eseape. Wut the position ts not one which an insane man would be likely to assume, and it is entirely inconsistent with Guitean’s subsequent statement thas he was inspired by the Lord to remove the Prest- dent, and that the Lord selected lim because hw had “the brains and nerve to do the work.” If Guiteau were really Inboring un- der the delusion that he had acted as the chosen agent of the Lord, he would continue to glory in his work and clalm tho credit for its consummation, Instead of blame Ing the death upon the malpractice of the physicians, Gultenu then urges that the purpossof the Lord was not morely to remove Gartield, but to give an increased: circulation to a pampliet enlled ‘The Truth?’ which Guiteau had written. This statement lings the appearance of insanity, but its etfeet Is impalred by Insisting {imme- dintely after upon his own Insanity. “Mr, Scoville,” he says, “Is developing a theory of hereditary Insanity which may have mi important bearing on this crise,” and then he proceeds to deelare that insanity runs fu his family, that hls father was a monomanine, and that certuln of his aunts and his cousins were confined In asylums. It is not charac- teristic of unatics to Inaist that they are In- sane. Gititeau further exposes the pecullar method In his madness by intimating that “the hundreds of people who will be bene- fited finanelally by the new Administration’ may send hint money quietly by expressto he used in hts defense, directing It to his nitor- ney and withholding their nanies If they pre- fer to do so, Ho takes ocerslon, too, to fint- ter the new President and the Judge before whom he Js to be tried, and exhibits the same shrewdness in his entira ples which has marked hischeckered career of vagabondism. ‘The elaborate document which Guiteau has prepared contains many efforts to make moral irresponsibility conspicuous, but these efforts are so Iabored ny to be palpable, and have none of tha consistency of Lawrenco’s demonstrations ‘ot insanity, Guiteru began in court yesterday to Interrupt the proceed- ings and to declare himself independent of lis counsel much after the manner in which Lawrence neted, but the detlbernte decep- tlon of the speech which he was not per- uiltted to deflver warrants the general bellof that his conduct in court was designed to create a false impression us to his sanity, —— COMPARISON OF AMERIVAN AND EN- GLI8H LEVELS. ‘The St. James Gazette, one of the organs of the English Tories, in one of its recent issues, made an attack upon American tnatl- tutions and dents of fife as tending to pro- duce “a dead level of mediocrity.” ‘Lhe aul- mus of this attack was an effort to counter: act the krowing sympathy and cordiality bu- tween the American and English people, which threatens to produce results intmleal to monarchical Insitutions and destructive of Tory high-caste privileges, ‘This branch of the subject has been already discussed In Tn 'Trmuny, and tho enuges of tho sudden and malicious assault were pointed out, Without further allusion to the animus, we bolleve there are suflicient grounds for chal- lenging the truth of the charge Itself, Whatever futellectual level” this country may oceupy has been renched inn century. One hundred years ago Its settled portions wero substantially confined to tho Atlantic slopeof the mountains. The handful of people wore still ploncers, clearing uv the land, fell- ing the forests, building log houses, dovoting thelr whole time to getting something to eat and wear and a place to sleop, Everything was rude, primitive, unoultured, and uncul- tivated. Luxury was unknown.

Senator McPherson, of Now Jersey, 9 Democrat somawhat advanced in years and ong who has been a Bourbon ever since he became a voter, gives up all expectation af having a Democratic’ issue agaln on which that party can successfully appeal tu the peo- ple, In a reeént interview he thus ex- preseed his despair: “ What view do you take of the future of po- Mtfent parties?” “I think that there are no differences betweon the present parties of any consequence, Une questionubly, tho National supremnoy is the do- Biro of ulmost every voter today, no mattor whether ho Ja a Democrat or a Republienn.

Seheraon thon remarked thane there wero four open questions before the country; First, tho oblitoration of injorual-rovenue duties, and the collection of our whole revenue at the cus- toni-housea; sovond, tho climlnution of the clerkstips and stnuller ofllecs from epolle; third, ay opposition to transportation monepolles; fourth, a policy of generous oxponditure on Ine ternal Impravemonts by tho States, We have no question that in this abandon.

But the party was finally over- shadowed by slavery, and gradually oll its once honored principles were suppressed or subordinated to the Divine right of property innion, Infact the Rebolllon was merely an assertion of what had became the theo- retle platform of the Democratia party, Aft er, the War the Democracy were forever looking backward.

Grant had ordered the removal of ‘Thomns a few days prior to the bate of Nashville, and that this removal, which as the event showed would have been'a public enlamity, was only prevented by a lucky ac- eldent, Gon. Grant was’ then President, Ills attention was called to Halleck’s state- ment by Boynton, who was referred to Badeau for further information. Badeau flatly dented the statement, and gaye documents. lo show that while Grant dit not order’ the removal of ‘Thomas he would have been abundantly Justi- fied in so doing, Badean at that time had exclusive access to the files of the War Department, aud was authorized to pillage them at his pleasure for materlal for his “Milltary Ulstory of the War,” which Is simply & prolonged glorification of Gen, Urant, : inthis “history” thesame suppression of the truth and sugiestion of falsehood with reference to ‘homes have been committed fg in the provious Interview with Boynton, Badeau has omitted from his account of the Nashville campaign some ten or twelve ofti- cial dispatches, all highly finportant and germane to the narrative, Those dispatchos show that Grant ordered the removal of Thomas just before tho Nashville campaign, not once morely, but twice; that Ira was con- stantly urglng Thomas in the moat impera- tive manner to attack; that the delay of the lntter was nsource of Irritation and grave offense to Grant, Up to this pofnt history has abundantly vindicated tho wisdom and Judgmont of Gen, Grant, But 1¢ appears trom these suppressed dispatches that Thomas had a complete jus- titlcation for not nttacking, aud that if he had neted upon Grant's carly orders hoe must inevitably have sncriticed hig army, Thomas had been stripped of his best troops and ali lls transportation to supply Sherman, Ho had to walt for horses barely suficlent to mount cavalry for the protection of his wings, Moreover, the enllatinent of 13,000 to’ 14,000 of his troops expired, and thelr places wero supplicd by perfectly raw levies.
