"DIsGRUNTLED. Our amiable neigh
bors of the Erpress say they are "dis-
gruntled." and we are profoundly sorry.
All because the wicked MONITOR, in
speaking Of their disparaging article on
the fair and their attempt to ridicule US
for having an agent on the fair ground,
spoke of them as ''aristocratic and holy
fellows" with "pious noses,' all of
which, except in sarcastic" sense,
was very naughty. Besides this we did
remind them that they forgot to mention
favor, which other editors are in the
habit of acknowledging. You ought to
see how they "went for" US. The fol-
lowing are some of the expressions and
epithets they used, after saying that il
was not pretty to call names: Sensitive
nature; tender corporosity; inert mate.
rialism wrathful emotions mad as q
hen; his stupidity; his porcine nature
ungentlemanly, mean and contemplate
the true inwardness of the man." etc
David seemed to be in his usual mooG
when he got off that braying blast. W.

The campaign in Virginia has grad
ually assumed personal aspect, and
the attacks have become so bitter that
the principles are in actual combat.
On account of a series of newspaper ar
tlcles, duel was fought near Richmond
on Saturday last, between Mr.. Riddle
berger and Mr.. G. D. Wise. Neither
was injured, and the same day Mr.. Rid
dleberger fought another duel, with the
same harmless result, the opposing par
ty being Mr. Beirne, who had stig-
matized his opponent as a liar. Ex-
cltement was created in Washington, on
Saturday night, by the arrest of Sena-
tor Malone. on charge of endeavoring
to challenge Gen. Early to a duel.
Senator Malone denied any such war.

and the defense proposes the same num-
Der. Mr.. Scoville, the brother-in-law,
and at present. the only counsel of Quit
eau, said, in an affidavit to the court,
that the defence would consist in an eff
fort to establish three points: 1. That
the court has no jurisdiction of the Of
tense. 2. That Guiteau was insane at
the time of the shooting. 3. That the
wound was not necessarily mortal, and
that the death of the president resulted
from malpractice by the surgeons. rather
than from Guiteau's bullet. These are
strong points as they appear on paper;
yet with our present light on the subject
we do not see how any one of them can
be successfully maintained. Guiteau,
as we new see the case, is a murderer of
the blacklist kind, who ought to be con-
victed and then hung by the neck until
he is dead. Let fair trial be accorded
to him; but let there be no silly senti-
mentalism about hanging the villain and
the wretch. The late president of the
United States now sleeps in his grave
by the hand of this monster, and, unless
his insanity shall be established beyond
reasonable doubt. he ought to be pun
ished with death.

President Arthur is making friends
by his elegant speeches, just matched to
each occasion, by his discreet behavior
and silence in regard to public questions
when moving amongst people, and by
the promptitude of his action, as in the
Tyner case. The luIl in political af-
fairs occasioned by the Yorktown incl
dent is now over, and the public will be
anxious to know whether the Senate
will adjourn or wait for recast of the
cabinet. One of the most important
matters, that of the vacant judgeship,
has not yet been settled, and we feal
that the delay is unfavorable to Chief
Justice Gray's appointment.

The election of Senator David Davis
to the presidency of the senate puts a
new phase on the situation and may be
said to restore the status quo. The con-
troll of the organization has passed out
OF the hands of the democrats and is,
practically, lodged where it was four
months ago. The admission of the
three senators restored the republican
equilibrium and put an end to the short
lived supremacy represented by Mr..
Bayard. 1t seems to US that the situa.
ton is much moro satisfactory thus. II
is preferable that the republicans should
bear the responsibility for legislation
and that the democrats should be foot
loose with strong and compact minor
lty. The latter would have been in {
false position, burdened with RESPONSE
bility and yet destitute of power. 1t ii
better that the incOngruity should hav,
persisted. There may be lamentablt
and abhorrent difference in the matte
OF the senate offices, but the country
will endeavor to overlook that in con
sideration of grayer interests.

THE TREASURY AND MONEY

The financial policy of the govern
ment for some months to come can be
quite surely anticipated. 1t does not
depend so much as many persons sup
pose upon the selection of Mr.. WINDOWS
successor. In fact, the necessities of
the case define the policy which must be
pursued, within narrow limits, and no
secretary of the treasury can greatly
change it. The surplus revenues have
been fully expended to date, and no Sec
rotary is likely to be selected who will
think of trenching upon the reserve.
From the surplus for the next two
months, the treasury has already bound
itself to pay about $l3,000,000 in re-
demption of called bonds not yet present.
ed for redemption. At this season Of
the year, the surplus may not be much
greater than this sum, and in that case
the treasury will only restore to the
market December "a, or earlier, the sum
which it may take from the market in
revenues. If, however, the surplus rev.
enue should exceed about $6,500.OO0
per month, as it has done recently, there
will be balance to be expended in the
purchase of other bonds, and such pur-
chases are likely to be made, by pru'
dent secretary, only after the excess Of
revenue over required expenditures has
been actually realized.
Hence the margin for the exercise Of
official discretion is comparatively mar
row. To men of sense, it is hardly nee
essary to suggest that no secretary O
the treasury is going to pay public deb
out of his own pocket; nor can any sec
rotary change the laws so as to insure {
larger revenue; nor will any pruden
secretary deplete the fund held for tn
: redemption of legal tender notes. 1t i
possible for a secretary Of the treasur.
to determine whether he will offer t
take, at any time prior to December "a
: part or the whole of the bonds Gale
i for that date. But the offers receive
t on Monday were but slightly in exces
of the amount invited, which indicate
that there may not be great amount {
called bonds remaining in such hanc
Ii that they would be presented before tt
Il maturity of the call. Several million
e of them, in any case, probably will n
IL be presented until the call expires. 4
u to this matter, therefore, the discretic
% of the secretary will only affect the tin
II of disbursing sum probably less tn;
l 100000. And, as to all other di
5 bursements, they will depend upon t
d. amounts first taken from the market
t taxation.

Rev. Mr.. Talmage justly eulogized
the late Senator Burnside, recently, say
ing of his political career: "That he
was incorruptible, and that no lobbyist
would dare put price upon him. Gen.
Burnside was never found with stock in
the Credit Mobilier transaction, nor in
schemes appealing to Congress to fleece
the people. AS a soldier, senator or
citizen, he was unimpeachable. Well
may Rhode Island mourn and wonder
where she may get a successor to Burn
side"

The estimate of the department of
agriculture on the advices of October l
is that the corn crop would amount to
% per cent. or 5 per cent better than
September l. The yield in 1879, the
census year, was reported to l,750,OOO.-
900 bushels, or 80 per cent crop. A
similar yield this year would have pro-
duced nearly 2,OOO.OOO,OOO bushels,
and the shortage is therefore supposed
to be about 675, 100000. There has
already, however, been saving of corn
from being fed to hogs. and there will
be scraping of corncribs which will %
to neutralize in some measure the effect
which this shortage would otherwise
produce.

The opening ceremonies of the York
town celebration were observed with
some mishaps, to be sure, but still, on
the whole, with excellent success. The
cornerstone of the proposed monument
which, it is to be hoped, may not
share the fate of other noted monuments
and remain unfnished-was laid with
impressive Masonic ceremonies, the eff
feet of which was enhanced by the his
toric association of many of the regalia.
An address by Governor Holiday pre-
coded the laying of the cornerstone.
The President and several members Of
the Cabinet were present.

BosToN's PROPOSED WORLDS FAIR
Boston is in earnest in pulling for
worlds fair, and certainly all New Eng
land will hope that it may succeed. At
meeting of the committee of twenty
eight, Thursday evening, very able
reports were made on the subject by the
several subcommittee. The commit
tee on organization reported that pro-
vislonal organization be effected, to con-
sist of twenty-five members, and that a
charter from the legislature be secured,
with capital of SIS, 100000, in shares
Of ten dollars each. The committee on
capital and income estimated the net
cost of buildings and grounds for fair
in Boston equal to the Philadelphia fair
to be from $2,nOO,0oO to S3,50O,OOO,
and the other expenses enough to carry
the total up to 100000. The Phil
adelphia buildings and grounds cost
$4,142. 1OO.29. The income is estimat-
ed at S4,82l,325.78 the same as the
Philadelphia Exposition. The commit
tee on site and buildings reported that
there is no tract of land in Boston Of
sufficient size to accommodate an exhi.
bition of the magnitude proposed, there
fore, it would be necessary to place the
several features of the exhibition ir
different sections of the city and provide

Guiteau, the assassin of our late la

week, arraigned before Judge Cox of the
