three boats, but were separated by winds and
fogs. One of the boats arrived at the eastern
mouth of the Lena river, and another boat sue
ceeded in reaching the same spot, but it is not
clear from the dispatches that the third por-
ton CT the crew in boat No. have been heard

Washington to small but sympathetic audi

course. He pictured the desire for vengeance
permeating the country called attention to
the constant danger OF the assassination of

capital punishment was Itself on trial. He said
the prisoners mail was filed with threatening

Timber Exhaustion.

The now well-kRown fact is that we
are rapidly exhausting, largely by reck
less and improvident waste, our supplies
of timber in the Northern States. The
demand for it increases at the rate of 30
per cent. a year, and even those who are
interested in high prices and immediate
sales of what is left of it admit that in
twenty years or sooner building timber
will be extremely scarce, and that in
many parts of the country, yet supplied
in part from their own soil, it will have

People Who Whine.

There is 8 class of persons in this
world, by no means small, whose promi-
nent popularity is whining. They whine
because they are poor, or if rich because
they have no health to enjoy their
riches; they whine because they have
no luck, and others prosperity exceeds
theirs they whine because some friends
have died and they are living; they
whine because they have aches and
pains, and they have aches and pains
because they whine they whine, no one
can tell why. Now, a word to these
whining persons: First, stop whining
it is of no use complaining, fretting,
fault-fnding and whining. Why, you
are the most deluded set of creatures
who ever lived Do you know that it is
Tell-settled principle of physiology
and common sense that these habits are
more exhausting to nervous vitality than
almost any other violation of physiolog-
ical law? And do you know that life is
pretty much as you make it? You can
make it bright and sunshiny, or you can
make it dark and shadowy. This life is
meant only to discipline us-to fit us for
a higher and purer state of being. Then
stop whining and fretting, and go on
your way rejoicing.

The letter of Secretary Blaine to Minister
Lowell, explaining the position of this Govern
ment in reference to q modification of the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, dated atxhe State De-
partment, Nov. 10, 1881, and Transmitted to
Congress by the President on the 18th inst, in
response to resolution of the Senate, is
lengthy and comprehensive docu-
ment. 1t is couched in plain,
straightforward language. with but
Ii tie of the flavor of diplomacy about it. 1t
was intended solely for the instruction of Min
lister Lowell and net for the public eye, and Mr..
Lowell is expressly notified that, unless re-
q1ested to do so by Lord Granville, the British
Minister of Foreign Affairs he is not to fur
ni8h him with copy, the reason being that
the foreign policy OF Great Britain is DIS
cussed in it in manner not altogether com
plImentary.
In the letter Mr.. Blaine declares that the
conditions under which the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty were made have long since ceased to ex-
LIST, and can never lie reproduced. The deyel-

cation, than for England to make demand. for
the perpetual naturalization of the Panama
canal MIR. Blaine takes occasion to reaffirm
the Monroe doctrine, and suggests the follow
ing notifications in the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty. That every part which forbids
the United States terrifying the canal
and holding political control over it
in connection with the United States
of Colombia be Cancelled; that every part in
which Great Britain and the United States
agreed to make no acquisition of territory in
Central America shall remain in force; that the
United States will not object to maintain the
clause referring to the establishment of free
port at each end of the canal, if England de-
sires that provision retained; and that the
provision by which the two Governments agree
to joint protectorate of whatever railroad or
canal may be constructed be considered obsolete.
The letter closes with the statement that the
United States will make joint proclamation with
the country in which the canal Is located that it
shall be open in time of peace to the commerce
of every country, but in time of war will be i'm
partially closed to war-vessels of all nations.

he had intended to kill Espy, for whom

Washington, Sep. 27.-Scoville, Of
Chicago, has not answered Guiteau
as to whether he will act as counsel in
his trial. Scoville was not in Chicago.
but the message has been forwarded.
The grand jury next week will doubt
less find true bill on the indictment
for murder but an immediate trial is
improbable. Corkhill, by having treated
Guiteau as condemned man by stop
ping bis letters and giving their con-
tents to the newspapers and the refusal
to let him see newspapers, etc., win
give his counsel greater privileges.
However no changes of venus can be
granted in the District of Columbia
and no appeal in criminal cases to any
other court, and the supreme court can
not review criminal cases. His counsel
will only be able to secure greater time
to prepare the defense. Corkhill still
treats the prisoner ANONYMOUSLY,
Guiteau only knowing by inference
even now that he killed the president.
1t is believed that the trial will be de-
ferred until the first Monday In Decem-
Der. Guiteau desires delay, ,and says he
can not have fair trial until there is a
cooling down in the community which
has applauded and never arrested the
two men who have attempted his life
in his cell. How to transfer him safely
between the Jail and court will be q
troublesome question. The court room
holds only 400, and admission will be by

shal Henry. No mob is likely to form.
The general opinion is that such dis
grace should not happen. !
