think an insane person would have
had such correct appreciation of
time and effect, or shown
so much without his interruptions.
An insane man if moved by impulse
to interrupt, would have done so re-
gardless of the stage of proceedings.
The conduct of an insane person
would not be characterized by Sc
lection, as had been shown by the
prisoner. He had observed that
Guiteau's Interruptions had been
most frequent and excited when the
evidence was going against him.
Here Guiteau interrupted Melon
aid by saying, "You are making q
great to do about nothing, [ do not
pretend to say that l am insane now"
Witness noticed Guiteaus constant
reading of the newspapers,
and concluded that newsp per COM
meDt had influenced Guiteau's con-
duct. As an example OF this he cited
Guiteau's threats against his former
wife, which had been referred to IN
newspapers before she came on the
stand, as evidence Of depravity, and
when opportunity offered, Guiteau
csrefully refrained from executing
! his threats.
Guiteau frequently interrupted
Macdonald, combating his conclu'
sions and advising him to draw hi'
money and go home.

TERRIBLE STEAMBOAT EXPLO.
SION.
Seventeen Men Killed and
Wounded.

RICHMOND, Va, December 27.-An
explosion occurred yesterday at West
Point, Va, on board the steamer
West Point, plying between that
place and Baltimore. There were
twelve colored men in the forward
hold at the time, all Of whom were
either killed by the explosion or
burned to death. Five other men
were aft slowing cotton. These
jumped overheard, and four of them
were drowned.
The first officer of the steamer
Peter Geoghegan, Of Baltimore, was
blown overheard, but was saved, al
though he is quite badly burned,
Quartermaster Wm Bohannon, Of
Baltimore, was seriously and possibly
fatally burned. Several others were
more or less severely burned.
The boats cargo was made up OF
miscellaneous freights, among which
were several hundred barrels of oil,
sixty of which were gasoline, the oil
| becoming ignited, the flames spread
so rapidly that there was no chance of
saving the vessel nor any OF the per
sons on board of her, even if they
were not killed by the explosion.
The forward portion of the deck and
a great part of the starboard side
were blown out, and there is no
doubt that all those in the hold or
near the forward hatch were instant
| ly killed, Seven men who were
drowned were slowing cotton in the
/ after hold.
After they jumped overheard a
large patch fell upon them, disabling
them so that they drowned. The
cause Of the explosion is as yet q
mystery. The only fire on board was
under the boiler which runs hoist
ing engine, and the engineer running
it renamed at his post and was un.
hurt. The steamer West Point was
built at Baltimore at cost of $40,
900, and this was her second trip.
She was doubtless well insured by
the companys Office in Baltimore
The value OF her cargo could not be
ascertalned.

Pleasant Social Entertainment.

Decidedly the most enjoyable occasion that
sentative was enjoyed last night at the
snug and inviting residence of Mr.. NJ. A. VIII
iams. on Clinton pike. The occasion was a
social and pleasure party given by Mr.. ".
to the teachers and members of the Sunday
school of the Second NJ E. Church. The
school was well represented, and there was
good attendance of invited guests, all of
whom were comfortably situated.
Most of the evening was spent in listening
to some of the best music, both vocal and
instrumental, it has been our pleasure
to hear for long time. The music
was by Mrs. S. A. Craig, pianist; Miss
Celia Williams, violinist, pianist and vocal
list Miss Hattie Williams, cornetist and vo-
calist, with the occasional assistance of Mr..
Luther Howell, in flute and vocal accompan-
iments and was Of great variety and enter
tanning to an extraordinary degree. Mr..
Williams, who is himself highly accom-
plished musician, has q family Of genuine
celebrities in music. The young
ladies perform fascinatingly on violin and
cornet, and Mrs. Craig presides with Pc
culiarly charming grace at the piano
and no part of the programme was more
enjoyed than the singing of " "Jedidiah" by
Mrs. Williams, as the closing selection. In
| fact, Mr.. Williams has perfect and com
plete orchestra in his own family.
| But, in the midst of the musical pro-
| gramme there came an interruption, and
the party was pleasantly surprised by the
| serving of choice and palatable refresh
ments, indicative of the excellent house
wifery of the well ordered household. This
feature was enjoyed to the fullest ex-
tent, and the party fingered till
| the lateness of the hour caused reluctant
dispersment, and all went away showering
unbounded praises upon the worthy host,
his excellent wife, and charming and ac-
complished daughters, one and all.
After the departure of the older folks, the
young people remained for time, and en-
| ioyed themselves as only young people can.
! Altogether the occasion was universally
voted the pleasantest entertainment of the
season.

NEWARK,
Further Details of Palmer's Defal-
cation.
He Thinks he Should be Tried by
a Drum head Courtmartial.

NEWARK, n. J. December 27.-The
mayor, with several city officers, in
Guiding members Of the finance com
mittee, visited the jail this forenoon,
to confer with Auditor Palmer cons
cerning his defalcations. His coun-
sci requested to permit an interview,
but Mr.. Galden, Examiner of Ac-
counts, who saw Palmer, stated that
he denied having forged the sigma
lures of Mayor Clark or the city
council, but admitted that he dis
ci=yed them in order to obtain their
signitures to the warrants and such
statements of claims as were neces-
ssry to obtain. Their signitures were
concerted and afterwards destroyed
He protested that more
was in collision with him.
The city treasury always
took bis word and acted on his in
structions, and was deceived, as other
officials we're.
Mr. Walden says there are other
speculations in the sinking fund,
interest assessments, deficiency and
tax lease accounts which he has not
