Mr.. Blaine's instructions in regard to
the Clayton and Bulwer treaty do not adj
NIT OF any misunderstanding. Nor is
there any doubt that his position will be
sustained by the American people. That
part of the correspondence which exhibits
and discusses the policy Of England in re-
gard TO her distant possessions holds up
the mirror completely to the gaze Of the
British government. and the reflection
ought To forbid the possibility that they
should interfere with the attempt OF our
government to reasonably take care of
our interests at the isthmus of Panama
In claiming that foreign nations shall keep
hands-off the Isthmus routes. our govern
ment seeks no ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Of this ma
ton. 1t only desires to protect our com
merce and people from damaging inter-
ference by transatlantic powers grasping
at universal control of the great oceans
and the commerce OF the world. Mr..
Blaine's letter is the kind OF language
that the people Of this country believe in.

COnaumO tfOn Cured,

BALTIMORE, MD, February 18th, 1881.
Upon the recommendation of friend, |
tried Browns Iron Bitters as a tonic and re-
st0rative for my daughter, whom l was
thoroughly convinced was fast wasting away
in Consumption. Having lost three daughters
by the terrible disease, under the care of
eminent physicians, was 10th to believe that
anything could arrest the progress Of the dis
ease; but to my surprise. before my daughter
had taken one bottle of Browns Iron Bitters,
she began to mend, and is now quite restored
to her former health. A fifth daughter began
to show signs of consumption. and when the
physician was consulted, he quickly said
"ronics were required" And when inform
ed that the elder sister was taking Browns
Iron Btters, responded, THAT is good ton

THEYORKrOwN CELEBRATION.


Washington. Dec. Is.
The following is the full text of the resolu-
ton which Representative Robinson of New
York, has made several unsuccessful attempts
to introduce in the House:
Whereas, On the centennial anniversary
| of the pulling down of the English flag al
Yorktown, by Washington and his compa-
triots; that English flag was re-hoisted and
| saluted without the authority of Congress OF
custom. and
Whereas, At the verv time when that sa
lutte was fired the English government was
trampling on the last vestige of free gov
eminent by suspending the right of habeas
corpus; suppressing public meetings, and
crowding their jails with honorable gentle
men unaccused of crime-some of them
American citizens. and others the chosen and
honored representatives of their own people
| in Parliament. therefore
Resolved, That we extend our sympathies
| to those patriots and members of Parliament
suffering Imprisonment under unheard OF
| despotism.
Resolved that this House does not approve
| of the salute given to the flag representing
+, this unheard of despotism, and that said sa.
lutte was entirely uncaIled for. unusual, and
was insulting to the memory of the brave
men who hundred years ago pulled it down
| American soil. Insulting to millions of oul
/ fellow citizens, to whom and whose ancestors
| it was and is the emblem of tyranny, an in.
| sulting to the other friendly powers whose
| flags were not saluted, though they deserved
equal if not superior recognition.
Resolved, That the Secretary of State is
hereby directed to communicate to this House
at the earliest possible moment, whether any
person or persons, claiming to be American
| citizens, are now, or recently have been,
| suffering Imprisonment in British jails, and
| if SO what crimes are against them; what eff.
| forts have been made to secure their speedy
| trial or release with all correspondence re.
lating to the same.
Resolved, That the Secretary of State is
hereby also directed to communicate to this
| House copies of all correspondence with for.
eign governments, within the present year
relative to the eXtraditiOn of alleged criminals
| in relation to the sacred right of asylum in
these United States.
Resolved, That while we appreciate the
womanly sympathy of Victoria in the sor-
rows of our departed Presidents family and
can excuse her for not being familiar with the
written constitution, yet her ministers should
have known that the reception of any present
OF any kind whatever, by any person holding
| office under the United States, without the
consent of Congress, would be violation OF
our constitution and an invasion of the priv
ileges of this House.

meet. however, that Judg. Porter and Mr..
Davidge insisted upon it, and they are DOM
decent men. -,
Then turning impatiently to Scoville, he
said: Now cut this short and let's have
something else.
Characterization of this witness was
somewhat tedious and wholly fruitless-
Guiteau continually protested against II,
and abused Scoville roundly for his slack OF
sense, and stupidity"
ScoviIle desisted and the witness was per-
mitted to depart.
As she left the stand Guiteau shouted after
her: have not seen this lady for eight
Years, and As far As know she is q high toned
Christian lady, and have nothing against
her and wish her well in whatever station
she may be.
Recess.
After recess DR.. James b. Loring of Wash
ington. . physician in charge of eye and ear
infirnary, made an examination of Guiteau's
ewes soon after the arrest and did not find
any indication of disease of the BRAIN
DR.. A. McLane Hamilton of New York,
had made diseases of the mind and nervous
diseases a special study for past nine years
Witness made three examinations OF the
prisoner at the Jail and had also closely scru-
tinted him in court since the 2Sth of Novem-
Der. Found no defects in the physical con-
formation of the prisoners head or face nor
any physical peculiarities or symptoms OF
congental disease of the brain. On the con-
trary ne found from accurate measurements
that the prisoner had symmetrical and
an exceedingly well shaped head. Witness
found no external evidence of any mental
or physical disease in the prisoner He con-
sidered him eccentric man.
Guiteau-'.Exceedingly eccentric when
am abused. I've had to take more abuse since
this trial began than during my whole life
before. l don't take much stock in this head
business" Striking the table and flashing
his eyes upon witness ''YOu study on spirit
ualogy instead of craniOlogy and you will
learn something. 1t is spirit that gets into
the brain and that acutes man.
Witness was then asked: "What is your
opinion upon the prisoners sanity?"
Answer-.I believed the man sane, though
eccentric and fully able to distinguish be-
tween right and wrong and to realize the
consequences.
Scoville noted an exception and Guiteau.
with an air of solemn sOberness. added, AMI
with all respect to this court jury this kind of
examination don't amount to a snap. Was
the free agency destroyed? That is the ques-
ton for this jury to decide. l swear that
my moral agency was destroyed. How is
this prosecution going to prove that it was
not? That is the short and sharp of it, and
that's all there is in this case
Pending the cross-examination of this wit
ness the court adjourned until Monday.
