A New Derartore.—For several years past it has been the custom of the Post Office department to have all postmasters render the first week in December an account of all mall matter recetved ‘and forwarded by them for the year. It has been decided not to do this for the present year, and postinasters will be so notified. THe Navat EvsieN axp Hs Tartor’s Br Ensign Braunrsreutuer, U. 8. navy, was recently court martialed for contracting debts with a tallor in Annapolis and not paying them. The court finds him guilty and sentences him to fortelture of #0 amonth piy—the same to go to the tatlor— until his obligation fs cancelled. Secretary Hunt, tn general order just tssued, approves the proceed: ings of the court and in general terms cautions all offivers of the navy from contracting debts, and speaks very unmistakably in condemnation thereof. Rev. S. Dower, D. D., pastor of St. Paul’s English Lutheran Church, 1s a candidate for the chap- lainey of the House of Representatives. His friends will present his name at the meeting of the republican caucus. THR MaRINB Corrs—The annual report of Col. C. G. McCauley, commanding the marine corps, states that on September 3ist last there Were 1,8%5 enlisted men in the corps, 918 of whom were on board ships and 937 doing duty at the sev- eral shore stations, An increased number of offi- TS and men for the corps 1s again recommended also, appropriations for a_ new barracks and qt ters'at Pensacola and Norfolk. ‘The restoration of the grade of brigadier general of the corps and legislation defining the Inanner of appointments 4nd promotions are recommended.

Tue PORTRAIT OF GARFIELD FOR QUEEN Victorta.—Mrs. Garfleld has sent, through the State department, to Queen Victoria, the photo- graph of the late President, for which Her Majesty asked after his death. It was suitably framed and Was forwarded this week. It ts a cabinet size picture. Many think Congress should send to the Queen a life Size portrait, in oils, of Gen. Garfeld, aS a fitting recognition’ of the sympathy she showed during his illness and after his death, and of the honors patd him by the British nation’ Tue Report or Gen. Raum, commissioner of in- ternal revenue, shows that the recelpts from ex- cise taxes during the first four months of the present fiscal year have been $50,876,970, being $7,061,722 In excess of the receipts for the 'corre— sponding period of last year. If this increase is malntatned, the receipts for the fiscal year ending June 20, 1882, will be fully $157,000,000. “During the Foe five fiscal years $02,301,797 have been col- lected by the officers of the internal revenue de- partment and paid Into the Treasury without loss to the government. The whole expenditure of the internal revenue bureau during that period was $2,197,002, being three and thirty-seven hundredths per cent Of the whole amount collected. The com— missioner recommends that a law be passed by Congress giving the United States courts jurisdic~ tion in where revenue oflicers are assaulted or Killed while in the discharge of their duties, and he also recommends that the widows of revenue officers who have been Killed while in the ne of duty be pensioned. STEEL GuNs NEEDED FoR THE Navy.—Commo- dore Jeffers, chief of the bureau of ordnance, Navy department, In his annual report say: The most finportant question of armament now press- ing for attention isthe manufacture of suitable h-power rifled cannon for the navy, and that steel is the proper material to be employed in the struction of sich guns fs admitted by most n: valinen. * © It ts also apparent that a compa: el pall gun is more easily manufactured than ne, and that in the endeavor to effect the u of cannon it would be best lo attempt the libers first. Beyond the conversion of a ain number of smooti-bore guns into rities and intradnetion of an excellent form of breech closure, our guns are in the same state as they Were twenty years ago. The contest between gun and armor having been determined in favor of the gun, it 1s vended a8 a preliminary to the proper armament of the navy that Congress makes »riation for the construction of ten steel guns, S are submitted.” DirLomatic Nores.—The Russian Minister, Mr. Bartholomet, expects to return to Europe next month.

STORY OF HIS LIFE CONTINUED. MOTIVES FOR THE ASSASSINATION. “INSPIRATION” TO KILL THE PRESIDENT. The experience of yesterday caused a decided change in the plan of disposing of the crowd at the City Hall, To-day none except officials, experts, Witnesses and lawyers were admitted to the court- house by way of the east wing. The public were directed to the doorway leading into the court- roomfrom the matin portico. The portico itself Was shut off from the street bya board fence strung along from pillar to pillar, with only a nar- Tow passage left open. “Notwithstanding this ar- Tangement, a dense crowd stood about the closed doors of the east wing, which were guarded by police. Whenever the door was opened to admit an oficial there was a general attack, and before the police could fight the advancing army back several would force themselves past them. In this Way quite a little crowd, panting and persptring, worked their way into the court-room. The new arrangement worked well for the experts, report- ersand others, who yesterday had to show their agility as gymnasts in order to get into the court- room, GUITEAU PROTESTS AGAINST HIS GUARDS BEING CHANGED. The prisoner was brought up at 9 o'clock, After arriving at the court house he fumed and fretted because he was informed that, under the reguta- tions, his police guard was to be changed. He protested earnestly against such a proceeding, sald he had become acquainted and used to his Present guards, and that he would write to the chief of police to prevent the contemplated change. THE EARLY SCENES IN THE COURT ROOM were a repetition of those of yesterday. Notwith- standing the threatening weather, the crowd was fully as great and as urgent in {ts demands as yesterday, but owing to the superior arrangements there was less confusion. Mr. and Mrs. Scoville, convoying a number of ladies, Mr. Amerling, Mr. Reed, and other adberents of the defence, arrived as usual very early. Guite: Again on the Wiimess Stand. ‘The judge was again a few minutes late this morning, and the court was not called to order till 10:10 a.m. The prisoner when brought {n, instead of being taken to his usual seat, was placed at once in the witness box. Mr. Scoville asked the witness to Identify some papers, One was a “ hanger” or handbill, announcing his lecture on the second coming of Christ, at Evanstown, in dune, 1877; the other was a “dodger ” or circular, Gontulning a prospectus of his book, « The Truth? Mr. Scoville then proceeded to examine the wit- ness, beginning again at bis [ EXYERIENCES IN TUE ONEIDA COMMUNITY. There was, the prisoner said, decided views in the Oneida Community respecting inspiration; it was belleved that Noyes and all his salt were eclally inspired. You may state fully to the jury,” said Mr. Scoville, “what views were entertained as to a Inspiration of any indivilual. ‘They looked upon Noyes,” sald the prisoner, “as God's prophet on earth, and everything was under his control in the Community. body and sou.” The prisoner sald pathy with these views white i e had always believed in inspiration. “I be- Neve,” sald the prisoner, “that We Detty can In- Spire me todo a certain act just as much ashe could inspire the apostle Paul or the Saviour.” The witness gave a litle SKETCH OF NOYES’ CAREER asareligious and social reformer, ending by say- ing: “About two or three years ago the people of Oneida Community made it too warm for the old chap, and he was very glad to abscond, I have now the utmost contempt for that system.” ‘The prisoner then gave a little account of the re- ligious and secular works he used to read; he had never applied for, been examined for, und been asked to accept, i position as a school teacher. He did not remember an tutcrview with hi at Ann Arbor; he remembered that Mr. an Scoville camé to see him at the Oneida Commu- nity, and that he treated tiem very coolly, as the Oneida teachings held that a man Should thing to do with his relatives; his scheme to pur- chase the Chicago Jnter-Ocean had nothing rell- Glous tn 1; it was entirely worldly. GUITEAU AND THE PUPPY. The prisoner was asked astohis visits to his sister's place in Waukesha county, Wisconsin, which visits have been frequently referred to in the testimony. He did not remember who was employed there. He knew nothing about the help, ashe did not care about them. He remembered the puppy doz episode. He took a little dog up- Stairs and it slipped through his arms and had tis leg broken. He remembered there was a great talk about it at tie time. ‘Being pressed further by Mr. Scoville fn reference to the dog story, the prisoner said, impattenuy: “I don’t care apy thing about thatdog. Ithas nothing todo with this case. You had better go on and talk about my ex- perience during the last four years. I want to give a clear and graphic accouut of it It tak theology and politics and the causes for which 1 ain NOW under trial” AN EXPLANATION AS TO THE $50 OVERCOAT. Mr. Scoville, accepting the suggestion, took up the thread of the examination where he left off last evening, beginning with his experlence In Boston in the early part of 1878. “IT sald Last night,” sald the prisoner, by way of correction, “1 had a $50 overcoat on.” I want to it actully cost me only $6. I went to a man there and he sald ‘I have a very nice overcoat which cost $50, I got it from a gambler, and will give it to you ror$6, So 1 took tt.” ‘IS LECTURE ON HELL. The witness kept constantly confusing the years 1868 and 1878, and explained by saying: “I don’t eel very good this morning.” He gave an of his first lecture in Boston at Wesley “I went there,” he said, “to lecture inst Mr. Ingersoll. He lectured for Hell, and drew a large crowd. There dre a great many more people will- ing to pay fifty cents to hear that there ain't any hell than there are to hear that there ts one.” He traced his course from Boston through New England, New York, and the west, as he sald “seiling’ my lectures and preaching the gospel.” He got thoroughly DISHEARTENED AND DISCOURAGED, went to Milwaukee and opened a law office; there he wrote new lectures, “Panl the Apostle” and “Christianity Rviewed,” and the lectures being new he thought they would draw. “They aldn’t draw though,” added the prisoner. He returned to Milwaukee, but having poor success in his law business, he went to St. Louis. He felt: uneasy all the time; he thought there was something in bim and he couldn't get it out; that he was inspired to preach the gospel, but there was noone thut would hear hit. His experiences in St. Louls were lke those in other places. Returning to Chicago he complied all his lectures ina litte book; then he ran about: to different cites and sold his ‘book; he found, he said, a very ready sale for it: coming east, he went to Chatauqua lake and spent a delightiul week at- tending religious services; he sold a maany books there and got money’ enough to pay his ral road fare; in September he went to New York; there he spent some days in the Y. M.C. A. rooms, preparing a new lecture entitied “Why two-thirds bf the human ries are going down to perdition.” He went to Boston and tried to deliver it; then he spent his time revising his book. “THE TRUTH.” Mr. Scoville handed a copy of “The Truth,” with revisions in manuscript between the pages, made by the prisoner fast June. The prisoner said he would like to read a few passages here and there to give the jury an idea of his line of thought. Mr. Corkhill objected, as a whole book would be putin evidence, and Mr. Scoville would read whatever passages he wanted to call attention to. GUITEAU AS A READER. ‘The prisoner,after reading the table of contents, insisted upon reading one paragraph showing how Paul preached the gospel, and how he (the pris- oner) preached it. Mr. Scoville satd that whatever the prisoner read he would not read, and finally to save time the cme sald eee isoner should pt ‘The mer read the Bese: aie which in- cluded several pages with an-atten ‘at oratorical effect, dropping voice here ere like a cligsrleadet reading out the verses of 4 hgsan sod and then he es his hand, as a means of emphasis, against Tailing in front of him, GTITEAU AND ST, PAUL ‘When he closed the book he said: “I claim to preach the gospel just as Paul did. My theory on ‘the second coming of Christ was just as offensive to Christian people as Paul's views were to the Jews. Thad a hard time—about as hard a tme as Paul Was on theolagy.” allowed to read |” ‘the two or three years I'} GARFIELD AS 4 POLITICIAN. ‘He remained in Chicago ti June 11, 1880, then he became interested in polities; he went to New York to take part in General Garfield's electiou: he wason the Stonington when she struck the jarragansett; he thought his time had come; he gave a very graphic account ofthe scenes at the collision; at New York he took board; was there about two weeks; had his speech, “Garfield against Hancock,” in manuseript. “That speech was written,” the prisoner sald, “as a matter of fact, for Gen. Grant. I thought he would be nominated. When Gen. Garfield was nominated, I had to reword {f to fit him.” He wrote it in Boston, and revised it in New he called on Gen. Arthur In New York in reference to taking part in the-campaign, but. did not see Nim; meantime he went to Pouzlikeepsie, advertised his speech, but f rained and no oné came; Went to Saratoga and tried to deliver it, but it Was hot and dry, and, a8 usual, no one came. ‘The prisoner returned to New York, had his speech rinted, and sent it to all the leading members of he stalwart conference on the 6th of August; he was only actually assigned ta speak once; It was on 25th street, at a meeting of colored men. DIDN'T LIKE THE CROWD, He delivered a part of his speech here, he said, and gave his printed speech to the newspaper re- Porters, “ Why didn't you deliver the whole of it?” asked. Mr. Scoville. “Well, I didn’t lke the crowd.” CONSULTING GEN. ARTHUR AND GOV. JEWELL. He wasin and around the national committee and the New York state republican committee from the 1st of August till about the 1st of No- vember. He consulted with Gov. Jewell and Gen. Arthur, and they were very friendly, but the dis- ability was that they wanted men of reputa- ton, like Gen. Grant and Senator Conkling. “They treated me well and thought I was a. good fellow,” said the prison, “I was on free and easy terms with them.” “(4 VERY GOOD SPEECH, INDEED.” He had sent a copy of the speech to Gen. Gar- field, the prisoner said, when he was in New York, together with other men; afterwards he called their attention to It, and ag soon as they heard his name they pricked up their ears and sald: “Oh, yes; I remember that. It isa very good speech. ‘A very good.speech, indeed.” ASKING GEN. GARFIELD FOR HIS REWARD. After the election he wrote to Gen. Garfield, sent him a copy of his speech, called attention to the fact that he (the prisoner) would probably marry wealthy New York lady soon,and he thought that they could represent the United States government at Vienna very well. He wrote again in January to remind Gen. Garfield of the matter; he CAME TO WASHINGTON in March last. Mr. Blaine had been appointed Sec- retary of State, and he knew he stood no chance of getting the office, because he was no Blaine man. His Only Interview with Gen. Garfield. He called on Gen. Garfield the first week after the Inauguration; the President was in conyersa- tion with several politictans (among them Minister Morton), all of whom received him (the prisoner) cordially. ‘Assoon as Gen. Garfleld was at leis- ure,” said the prisoner, “I gave him my speech. Of course he recognized me at once. I marked St with the words, ‘Parts Consulship. I told him I was an applicant, 'tor phat position. He begun reading the speech, and Iretired. That was the only in- terview I ever had with Gen. Garfeld.” The prisoner here suggested that his autoblog- raphy, bublished in October, covered this matter Nery fully, and he did not fee! well enough to go over it again, The district attorney ebjected to producing it. The Assassination “a Political Neces= sity. “My getting office, or my not getting office,” de- clared the prisoner, emphatically, “had nothing to do with. my removing the President. That was truly a political necessity, under divine inspira- tion.” The prisoner gave some detatis of his further My to the White House and the State depart- ment. “I stood well,” he said, “with both the Presi- dent and Secretary Blaine at that time.” He had seen Secretary Blaine, personally, five or six times; he had also Sent notes in. HIS LAST INTERVIEW WITH SECRETARY BLAINE occurred, he thought, about April 25th; the Secre- tary said to him, rather abruptly, “Never speak to me again on the Paris consulship.” It hurt his (the prisoner's) feelings to have him go back on him so suddenly as that, as before that Mr. Blaine had always sald when the Senate dead-lock was over, his case would recelve consideration. The Secretary seemed impatient, and sald in refer- @nee to removing Mr. Walker from the Paris con- sulship, “Well, if he will,” as much as to say, if the President thought he must remove Mr. Walker, he would. SOURED BY HIS FAILURES TO SER THE PRESIDENT. The prisoner then said he continued to go to the White House for some time; he sent in notes and cards. The secretary would come back and say: “Mr. Guiteau, the President says it will be im- possible to see you to-day.” That was the sterco- typed reply. ‘The prisoner satd he understood by words “to-day” that the President was consider- ing his case and would appoint, bim as soon as he could remove Mr. Walker. “That is the way the matter stands to-day,” sald the prisoner; “he never told me I could not have the ofice. But the ee ting of the Paris consulship or any office had nothing to do with my inspiration.” His Mental Excitement Over Political Affairs, The prisoner then gave an account of his mental excitement over political affairs. ‘The President, Gen. Grant, Senator Conkling and others, he sald, were ut lozgerheads, and he saw the country was going to ruin. Mr, Scoville here asked what the prisoner under- stood by an inspiration. “An inspiration,” answered the prisoner, “as T understand it, is Where a man 4s taken possession of by a supernatural power. When he acts out- side of himself.” Mr. Scoville having asked for the circumstances attending his inspiration, requested the court to let him read from the Hera(d interview of October 6, (his so-called autoblography.) He said he was willing to swear to that publication as his verbal testimony. ‘The prosecution objected. Am Alleged Inspiration to Commit Murder. Mr. Davidge said: “An alleged inspiration from Almighty God, the purpose of which was to com- mit a murder, was Something on which he thought man’s memory should be marked.” The prisoner pleaded that he did not feel wely enough to go over the story again. “I haven't been well for a week.

The prisoner here complained that he was tired. “I will feel better after I have had my dinner,” he said; “I always feel better after dinner, I did not eat much breakfast.” ‘The counsel agreeing, the court, at 11:45, took a recess to 1 o'clock, In order to aliow the prisoner time to rest. THE LONG RECESS was very tedious to those who rematned indoors— and three-fourths of the spectators did remain in- doors. After lunch they had to amuse themselves as best they could with newspapers and opera- glasses. ‘The Jury was taken out, and the prisoner was conducted to his room, where he had the din- ner which was to brace hith up for his afternoon campaign. Afternoon Session. The court was not called to order until 1:10 p.m. The prisoner was, as in the morning, brought in by his guards and placed at once in the witness box. Mr. Scoville sald there was a witness here from Columbus, Ohio, a physician, who wanted to get home, and asked permission to interrupt the present examination and place the gentleman on the stand. ‘The prosecution objected, and the examination of Guiteau was continued. GUITEAU ON SPECIAL PROVIDENCES. ‘The prisoner sald that he had always been a be- lever in special Providences; there were four dis- tinct times in his life when he claimed special ine spiration; one was when he went to the Onelda Community; another when he went to New York tostart a theocratic paper; another when he left 8 good law business to co lecturing; and the fourth time when he undertook to remove the Pres- ident. He thought there was abundant evidence of the care the L®rd had always taken of him: he referred to his experience since he had been in fall; he spoke of his Newark trip and his steam- oat experience. “When I wasshot at and missed, When the mob howled at me last summer,” said the prisoner, “I felt. perfectly composed; I had no anxlety about this trial; I felt the government and the Lord would protect: me.” HIS THEORY OF DIVINE PROTECTION. “My theory of protection is this,” said the pris. oner, “The first thing, the Deity himself will pro- tect me, Then he uses these guards, and th Jury, and these experts and this honorable court to protect me. The Lord is no fool, and when he has got anything to do, he uses the best material.” ‘The first instance of divine interposition in his behalf in jail, he sald, was when one of the keep- ers attempted to shoot him. “The fact abont that matter, as I understand it,” sald the prisoner, ‘is that the man came to my cell to shoot me.” ‘The hext case of Providentlal interference was when Sergeant Mason shot at hin. ‘The prisoner gave a Yery full account, from his standpoint, of both of these occurrences. ‘Speaking of the Mason case he said, “It was a most decided Providence that t happened to be in @ cramped position at that minute.” JONES’ ATTEMPT ON HIS LIFE. The next instance, said the prisoner, was the Jones case. “I was standing,” he said, “in a cramped position directly behind the driver In the van. I wasfeeling happy and congratulated my- self on having agood trial anda fine fury.” The Providence was that the ball did not hithim. “I think the fellow was an exceedingly fine shot,” he added, “but the Lord saved me.” INSPIRED BY THE LORD TO REMOVE THE PRESIDENT “The Lord inspired me to remove the President,” declared the prisoner. “He has taken care of me up to this time, and will continue to take care of me. IfThad not been absolutely certain that the Deity had inspired the act, I would never have shot the President.” “Did you have any Ml-feeling against President Garfield?” “No, sir, Inever had.” The prisoner added, “I considered him my personal and political trend.” “Any malice at all?” “No sir” (emphatically). “Have you changed your opinion since?” “No, sit.” (pounding the ralling before him), ‘any opinion has never changed as to the neces- sity of this act and the divinity of this inspira- tion.” Proceeding like a stump orator the prisoner Said: “I undertake to say that this nation some day, instead of saying ‘Guitean, the assassin? Will say ‘Guiteau the petriot."”. The prisoner suid that after concelying the idea of shooting the Presi- dent, he felt a pressure on him all the ume. HAPPY AFTER SHOOTING THE PRESIDENT. “After I shot the President,” he said, “I felt re- Ueved. Ifelt happy. Ihadn’t been so happy for Weeks, a8 when I got into my cell on the 2d of July. said ‘Thank God! It’s all over.” “Have you a distinct remembrance of what occurred On the 24 of July?” “On, yes, sir.” ‘The’ prisoner testified to some ot the clreum- stances of his arrest and transfer to jail, but Mr, Scoville did not question him asto the act of shooting. He had sent no recommendations with his application for the Austrian mission. He had depended on his own personal rela- tions with the President and Mr. Blaine. REGARDS PRESIDENT ARTHUR AS HIS FRIEND. Mr. Scoville askeq if he did not consider Presi- dent Arthur his friend. “Thaven't,” said the prisoner, “had any occa- ston to test 1.” “Have you written any letters to him?” “Thave addressed two or three letters to him. don’t know whether they have been delivered or not. From the way I have been treated in other matters, I Imagine not.” After Some discussion between counsel, as to the relevancy of such testimony, the prisoner sald: “J want to say here that I presume that President Arthur is my friend. I have never asked an: favor from him, either for myself or my friends although I am the man that made him, or at least my inspiration did.” A PROTEST FROM DISTRICT ATTORNEY CORKHILL. District Attorney Corkhill protested against in terrogatories that elicited such repites. “I have got nothing more to say,” said the pris- oner, excitedly, “on the subject. Isimply wanted to define my position. I have not asked the Prest- dent for any favors, and probably shall not.” SPECULATIONS AS TO THE VERDICT. As the trial progresses the faces of the jurors Decome objects of interest, and there are many speculations as to how the testimony is affecting them. Some persons have pald so much’ attention to the Jurors’ countenances that they profess to be able to tell how they are impressed. ‘The most common prediction 13 that the jury is already di- vided. ‘This prediction 1s based to a considerable extent on the supposed fact that in the families of two of the jurors there has been insanity, and that they will therefore readily accept the theory of thedefence, There being’ but Ittle tdea that all the others can be brought over to this view the opinion ig that the Jury will disagree. The two Jurors indicated, however, are men of the strictest Integrity, and ddubtless Went into the Jury box as fair minded as ft ts possible for men ‘to enter it, leaving all past experience behind them, and with the Tull intention. to. be governed solely. by the evidence and the law as it shall be given them. A CRANK WHO WANTS TO SAVE GUITEAU. Last night Lieutenant Austin took in charge a crank, who gave his name as Elias Fitts, alias P. Paul, from Niagara Falls. He said he was some- times called the Apostle Paul. He carried a Bible and some tracts under his arm, and on arriving here went direct to the Tremont House and hunted up Mr. Scoville, and told him he had come here to save Guitcau. “He says he atone time was under the charge of the expert, Dr. Gray, whom he said Hehad everappeared as an expert wituess and had ever aj that Dr: Gray/meant to hang Gulteau.” He sald he had cone here to show up Dr. Gray. He sub- scribes himself as “Jesus’ Anointed.’ ‘TRIAL NOTES. . ‘Towards the close of the day yesterday Guiteau narrated his experience in Washington when he ‘visited this clty in the midst of his lecturing tour.

NUMBER OF VESSELS; THEIR CONDITION, ETC. Chief of the Bureau of Construction and Repair J. W. Easby has submitted his report. to the Secre- tary of the Navy. He says the navy, exclusive of tugs, consists of 115 vessels. These may be divided into four classes: In commission and vartously employed, 39; tn- ordinary, repairing or walting completion or repairs, 27; employed either as recelving, practice, store, triining, transport, dis- atch oF Stationary vessels, 22; unfit for repairs or completion, 27; total, exchisive ef tugs, 115. The 2 vessels last’ mentioned are unfit and worthless for naval service. But to keep them It 1s necessary to employ service at an annual expense of $30,000. It would be to the interest of the government to sell or break them up. An tncreased appropri. tdon $2,500,000—is recommended to keep In repair the vessels worth repairing. A large number of our vessels now employed as cruisers. while answering all the purposes of a peace estab— Ushment, cannot be relied upon in actual warfare; but it is nevertheless necessary to keep them In repair.
