A recent writer in trustworthy
German periodical, who has made the
tramp life in Germany subject of special
investigation. estimates the number OF
able. bodied tramps in that country at
100. 900. The results have been similar
to those in this country. In the more
retired districts crime has multiplied and
q general feeling of insecurity prevails,
despite the stringent police regulations.
This conditions of affairs adds to the per-
plexities of the government, since the
great majority Of these Migrants are
thoroughly imbued. with the Nihilist
doctrines and are ready to assist in any
disturbance by which the peace of society
is threatened. This unhealthy condition
Of affairs is partly, doubtless, a result of
war, which always is followed by more
or less vagabondage. But thoughtful
students Of German social and political
affairs look upon it as very largely due to
the removal of religious restraints, re-
suit of the German modern tendency to
skepticism and disbelief in everything-a
tendency by the way, against which a
strong reaction has begun-and also as
due to the unrestricted traffic in intoxi-
cants. The latter portion OF this theory
is worthy the consideration of those who
profess to believe that beer tends strictly
to Temperance and sound philosophy. =

Special Dispatch to the lntellIgeuser.
WARRINGTON, December 25.-"vicioul
depravity neutralizes free agency" These
the closing words OF DR., strons's testimony
OF Saturday, have had most disastrous
effect upon the Guiteau case, and u serious
effect upon the prisoner himself The testi'
mony OF the doctor was as an entirety dam
aging to the defense inmore ways than one,
Though student OF mentaldiscase, always
finding intefestinanyphase oftleatIlictiop,
the DR., has given thiscase the most untiring
attention for two weeks, lie has visited
the prisonerat the jail frequently, and has
been daily attendant at the trial in the
court He has read every word OF the tes-
timony heretofore given in the case, and
when he went upon the stand Saturday, 1t
was Will as thorough an understanding OF
the circumstances as that held by any per-
son connected with tho case. Guiteau's
claim Of late has been less that Of inspira-
ton than that his free moral agency
was destroyed and his will bound
hand and foot by some supernatur-
nj power, thus rendering him unable
to resist an inclination to carry out the
deyilish idea which he became i'm
pressed with. This last scheme hc thought
would appear moro plausible TO Jury Of
practical men, who would be very slow TO
accept the theory Of inspiration, conso-
quently to every witness that has como
upon tho stand the prisoner has bawled
insolently Cant you SEQ that my free
agency was destroyed" In his usual
tlippant manner he threw this question
Mt DR., Strong, Saturday, and was met by
the crushing reply quoted above. Guitcau
sank back in his seat, calmed. Reed, Of
the defense, was about to move to have II
stricken from the testimony, when he con-
cluded that 1t would be best to not draw
the jury's attention 10 1t too particularly,
and at once let the matter and witness
drop. The trial can't lust u great while
longer, and every indication points to the
conviction Of the prisoner. 1t is barely
possible some doubtful juror may hang
tho jury instead OF tho assassin, and ne.
cessitato a new trial, but these arc only
possibilities ut present.
