GUITEAU.

The following from the Cincinnati
Commercial is pretty faithful refiec-
ton of public sentiment in regard to the
assassin of the President:
There is no occasion for a prolonged
trial of the assassin 9uiteau. The mon
strous confession of the villain, volunta-
rily given by himself, and taken down
literally by an official photographer, is
sufficient to convict him OF the act of
shooting the president without calling a
single witness. 1t shows him to have
deliberately formed the purpose of kill
ing the president, and to have watched
and waited for an opportunity to exc
cute il for weeks before he finally exc
cuted IL. There is no evidence of in
sanity IN anything that he did. He act
ed intelligently throughout, and with
clear understanding of the consequences
of his act, both to himselfand the nation.
His object in killing the president was
clear in his own mind-the unitication
of the Republican party.
His statement that he was not actuated
| by malice OF prejudice against the pres
| ident, and therefore was not guilty of
murder, is the thinnest stuff. Multitudes
of men have been murdered against
whom the murderers had no personal

der has been committed for money. In
such cases it has often happened
that the murdered man was entirely a
stranger to the murderer. Yet they
were none the less murderers, though
they might have shown that no malice
existed. They murdered for money
| Guiteau murdered for supposed politi-
cal end. 1t ought not to take jury
! five minutes to find Guiteau guilty upon
4 his own confession. The plea of insani.
ty which his counsel, it is said, will en-.
ter in his case, is fairly stopped by the
confession of the unspeakable scOnndFel
As to his having executed the will OF
the Lord, il is sufficient TO say that the
earthly tribunals have NO jurisdiction;
they are more ignorant, If anything
than the persons who undertake &c
clear the mysterious dealings of PrOYf
1 dence with men. They cannot receive
testimony on that head, nor can any be
offered showing what the Lords viii
was in the matter. The jury must find
upon the evidence offered, first, whether
Guiteau shot the president; second
whether he shot him deliberately and in
cold blood; and, third, whether the pres
ident died from the wound inflicted
On the first two points Guiteau's comics
sion is conclusive, and on the thirf
point the evidence Of any one of the sur
geoDs who attended the president during
his mortal illness, and that of the sur
geOns who made the autopsy, will b
equally decisive 1t is plain case o
deliberate murder, and nothing else cal
be made out of it,

New York Tribune: 1t turns out that
the three Arkansas train robbers are no
hardened desperadoes, but three youth
full tramps from Florida, who were hun
CRY, barefootsd and ragged, and having
read how easily railway passengers and
express messengers were plundered in
the west, concluded TO try their luck at
the business. In view oil the fact that
one of the lads is only seventeen years
old, and another one but eighteen, and
that all are noyices in crime, the affair
assumes a ludicrous aspect. We shall
perhaps next hear of train being stop
ped and robbed by party of school
boys who have been surreptitiously
reading in their fathers hay-lofts the ad
ventures of Dick Turpin and Sixteen

The result of the election in Ohio
shows IL very large falling off in the gen.
eral vote compared with that of last year
and light Democratic gains have been
made throughout the state. The sick
ness and death of President Garfield had
the effect of allaying almost entirely
the political asperities which mark the
average canvass in that state, and it was
not till within ten days of the election
that the Republicans made any public
effort on behalf of their ticket. The
Democrats all through held to their ac-
cus;omed line of policy and made still
hunt. Their standard bearer, Mr.
Bookwalter, was selected purely
in view of his financial ability
TO prosecute the campaign on that plan,
and the arguments presented in support
of his claims were, in the main, of pc,
cuniary character.
That his efforts TO control the vote of
the great commonwealth of Ohio by the
corrupt use of money proved abortive
is no more than the public had right to
expect of the state which claims the
honor of giving birth to our martyred
president, James 4. Garfield. 1t would,
indeed, have been sad travesty upon
the tribute which Ohio paid to the re,

The State Sunday School convention
evening was conceded by all who testified
in relation to its workings TO have been
ole of the most successful ever held in
the state. There have been similar gath
erings in different cities in Kansas
where The attendance was larger than it
was here, but what was noted by all as
the most suspicious feature of the con
vention was the large measure of har-
mODy which characterized its delibera-
tons, rendering the sessions not only a
source of delight to all who felt how
good and how pleasant it was for breth-
rem to. dwell together in unity, but
strengthening the. cause sought
to be promoted by the unity
of thought and action which pre-
uailed
The delegates numbered in the neigh
borhood of three hundred, and most
all sections of the state we've repre-
sentcd. The reports from the cit
les and towns rs well rs from the rural
districts and the distant frontier show
that this grand moral agency already
embraces II wide range of action and that
il is marching on to still giander CON
quests The object of the convention
just closed WAS to perfect plans for a
more efficient aud aggressive campaign
in this direction during the coming year,
and the many valuable suggestions offer
ed during its sessions by prominent Ia
borers in the cause, will be utilized
with grand results by those who carry
these new ideas to their respective fields
OF work.
There is na question as tO the potent
influence which the Sunday school is
cxerting upon the civilization of the
state, and an institution which contcm-
plates and compasses the moral culture
of our youth does work FOR the CON-
monwealth which deserves the support

interested in seeing the coming genera
