LONDON, Sept. 20-The Standard saws: It
is no exaggeration to say the sorrow expert
enced here flows very close in amount and pro-
foundity upon that endured by the people of
America. We are sure that Americans will
be not only touched, but in some degree CON-
forted, by the queens feeling messages. The
sentiments expressed by the queen and echoed
in appropriate terms by the Prince of Wales,
are the sentiments of the entire English
people. We claim to stand side by side with
our brothers on the other side of the Allan
tic on this sad occasion, to feel all they feel,
to suppress all they would rather suppress,
and understand and share every emotion
through which they are passing. A common
gloom has descended upon the two commune
ties by the lamentable occurrence which is felt
to be the sad property of both. Even in this
moment of cOnsternation and anguish there
are many whose thoughts will turn to the
| worthless criminal who has been awaiting in
conference.-the result of his deathly stroke.
None can doubt what must shortly be his
doom. 1t seems satire on the organization
of things that the death of a man like Gar
field and the life of creature like Gujteau
should be mentioned in the same breath. The
president will long linger in the memory as
worthy citizen who deserved a better des-
tiny.
TIMES ENTERPRISE.
LONDON, Sept. 21.-The Times has eleven
columns of news relating to the death of Pres
| ident Garfield surrounded with mourning
border.
A crowded meeting was held at the London
Good Templers' lodge last night. Kegan Paul,
publisher, presided. Bishop Hood, colored,
eulogized the late president. Among the
callers yesterday at the American embassy
| here were most of the representatives of for
| eign governments, Lord Derby, Mr.. West, the
newly appointed British consul to Washing
ton, and Bishop Simpson.

| UNPRECEDENTED TRIBUTE.
Every hour increases the evidence that the
present is the most remarkable demonstration
of sympathy ever witnessed in Europe. The
bells of the parish churches in various places
in England are tolled, which is an unprece-
dented tribute to foreign ruler. The muni-
cipal bodies of Leeds, Hartlepool, Falmouth
Of coincidence. Afr The American % a''Uas flag was
hoisted on Manchester cathedral.
The provincial papers rival those of London
in expressions OF sympathy. The Manches-
ter Guardian says: "To be cut off like Lin
coin is less trying. His countrymen all honor
his memory by insisting upon completion of
the task he undertook. 1t is something to be
able to say that. Gen. Arthur's conduct
since the lamented event, has been admirable.
he may disappoint alike the hopes of some
of his friends and the fears of many of his
enemies"

Gasite0M's Punishment.

THE QUESTION OF JURISDICTION.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 21.-The best
lawyers here are still in doubt whether juris-
diction to try Guiteau lies in the district of
Columbia or in New Jersey. Some of the
ablest lawyers say the New jersey authorities
were perfectly right in taking steps to put
the death of the president legally on record,
that, though the shot was fired here, death
from the effects of the shot must be proved,
and if any links in the chain of evidence are
wanting, Guiteau can be tried only for assault
without intention to kill. The United States
supreme court can only take juris-
diction of criminal cases on certifcation
OF difference of opinion from the lower
courts and therefore in order to try Guiteau a
court must have original Jurisdiction. Not
withstanding the district attorneys emphatic
statements yesterday that there is law enough
here to try Guiteau, he cannot put his finger
on the law and it may be necessary to arraign
Guiteau in New Jersey in order to properly
punish him.
Everything at the Jail is quiet this morning
Gulteau is described as being somewhat restless
but alternately reads and writes. He is

We see some of our State eX-
changes are advocating VIM. Gas
lin as a candidate for Judge Of the
supreme court. The Lincoln Globe,
in speaking of him, refers to Judge
Maxwell's bodily ailments. II is
true that Judge Maxwell is greatly
afflicted by rheumatism, but his con-
duct in the high and very respOn-
sible position of supreme Judge has
shown clearly that his brain is un-
clouded. The Journal firmly be-
lieves that Judge Maxwell is an
able, faithful, fair, impartial and
upright judge, having the entire
confidence of the people and the
bar, and we are therefore i'm favor
of his denomination.
