The Guiteau Indictment.

WARRINGTON, Oct. 8. The indictment
against Guiteau was presented to the grand
jury this morning at ii o'clock.
The Guiteau Indictment embraces eleven
counts, and is drawn with great minuteness.
The 9Th and 9Th counts are the ones upon
which it is said that the prosecution will
mainly rely. They describe the shooting as
having been done at the Baltimore & POto-
mac depot, Washington, with malice afore
thought, with a pistol Of the value Of five
dollars, iniicting one mortal wound at the
depth Of six inches and breadth of one
inch, of which said mortal wound the said

Washington and District Columbia, as at and

New Jersey, did languish, and languishing
did live and ultimately die. Each count
formerly repeats the charge that Guiteau, in
the manner and by the means described. fell

thought, did kill and murder against the form
of the statute in such cases made and provided,
and against the peace and government of the
United States.
At l245 the grand jury entered the crimi-
nal court and presented the indictment
against Guiteau. endorsed "a true bill" 1t
was signed by Caleb Churchman, foreman.
Guiteau ut Dinner.
Yesterday. when an officer connected with
the judiciary of a neighboring state was being
shown through the gail, a momentary stop
was made at Guiteau's cell door. The pris-
oner was then at his dinner" and the visitor
remarked, 81 see you are at dinner" the
prisoner answered, ''Yes, this is about as
much as they allow" The visitor remarked

Appointment.
President Arthur today appointed o. P
Clarke to be first deputy commissioner of
pensions. and C. b, Walker to be deputy
commissioner of pensions. The appoint
ments have been made to carry out the in
tentions of President Garfield. Mr.. Clarke
has occupied the position Of deputy commits
sioner for some time past.
The Secretaryship Of the Treasury.
The statement that the secretaryship of the
treasury has been rendered to George S.
Boutwell, Of Massachusetts,, is not thought
by those in \ position to know to be altogether
correct. 1t is not probable that Presidents
Arthur has invited him to accept a cabinet
position. Friends Of Mr.. Boutwell, say that
if he we're selected he will accept, and thev

ours. He secured from his druggist bottle
of Browns Iron Bitters, having heard of its
merit from physician, who told him not to
take any other Bitters or Tonic, for with the
exception of Browns Iron Bitters, they all
contained alcohol, and it failed to give his
patients lasting relief; nor should he take
any other preparation of Iron, for with the
exception of Browns Iron Bitter, they all
blackened the teeth, and often gave headache,
which Browns Iron Bitters never did, but in
fact cured headache. The effect was most
satisfactory; he Immediately realized wonder

NEWSPAPER ENTERPRIsE.-The Boston
Post, in recently concentrating its half
century of existence, gives some amusing in
cidents illustrative of newspaper enterprise,
or rather lack of enterprise, in its early days
as compared with the general enterprise and
energy of every well-managed newspaper of
the present day. The difference between
the two periods is so amusing as to seem
hardly possible. The late Hon. s. N. Stock.
well of the Boston Journal used to tell a
good story which forcibly illustrates the
same point. The incident occurred in the
early days of Mr.. Stockwell's newspaper ex.

point not far from Boston. Stockwell, full
of energy, nervous and FESTIVE, thought it
would be just the thing to attend the meet
