Speaking of the bill authorizing
tho educational institutions of Ten
nessee and the school board to fund
all the Tennessee bonds in their pOss,
ession, passed by the last legislature
the c. arksviIle Tobacco Leaf makes
this mention of the proverbial cute
ness of the average office holders
Interpretation of law; {. The law
contemplated funding the entire
amount Of bonds held by each insti-
tuition lnvo one certificate. For in
stance, the University of Tennessee
at Knoxville, holds 1852 bonds of the
State of Tennessee at $1,000 each
making $352,OO0. 1t was the inten-
ton of the legislature to fund this
in one certificate, but the Republi-
can Funding Board at Nashville,
Governor Hawkins, the Comptroller
and Treasurer, have so construed
the law as to mean that certificate
shall be issued for each bond. This
ruling will replete the Funding
Boards pocket books to the amount
Of 1852, while issuing one certificate
would allow them only 81. Yet the
Republican party in Tennessee
claims to be the friend of education"

The counsel for the Government
in tho Star Route prosecutions, it
seems, are running a race with the
statute of limitations. The alleged
conspiracy to defraud the Govern
ment, upon which are founded the
charges against Brady and his con-
federates, dates back to October /,
1878, and after Saturday last the
prosecution would have been barred
by the lapse of three years. The
grand jury of the Criminal Court
was empanneled three weeks ago,
but, without acting on any of the
Star Route cases, adjourned to OctO-
Der 3. In order to prevent the pros
ecution from falling to the ground,
the counsel for the Government
came into court last Friday with
bill of information against Thomas
j. Brady, John L. French, VIM. FL.
Turner, Geo. IL. McDonOugn ana ..
P. Brown, charging them with en-
tering into a conspiracy to defraud
the United States, and obtained an
order from Judge Cox directing the
same to be filed. 1t is somewhat
singular that o. S. District Attorney
COrkhill and his assistants did not
discover that the case would be bar
red by the statutes of limitations
until the day before the three years
expired. The cases have been I'M
der consideration for the last five or
six months, andnot until the last day
on which a prosecution was possible
was any effective step taken to bring |
the accused to trial. But it is none
the less bad for Brady

PRESIDENT ARTHUR.

All eyes are turned upon him
who, by the death of the lamented
Garfield, is now President of the
United States. 1t is difficult to
conceive of a more painful and try
ing situation than that in which Vice
President Arthur is placed by the
fact, as we'll as circumstances, of the
Presidents death. He is said, in the
only public position Of Importance
under the general government which
he has heretofore filled-that of col
lector of the port of New York-to
have given evidence of capacity and
administrative ability. The coun-
try can only hope that in the high
and responsible position to which he
has been so suddenly and unexpect-
edly called he will exhibit not only
these, but those higher and broader
qualifications for the Office for which
in the mere field Of New York State
and city politics he has bad no scope
but which are especially required
at this juncture to allay public
anxiety and distrust and inspire con
fdence. Very cordially do we en-
dorse the utterance of the New
York World, when it says:
Not as matter of sentiment nor a
a matter of sympathy, but as mat
ter of that sober, patriotic common
sense which is the true and cheal
defense of our American institutions
good citizens of all shades of politi
cal opinion viii lend to Preslden
Arthur the'silent but substantial sup
port of their confident beliefthat tn
dread responsibilities which fall up
on him to-day will find him read.
and determined to discharge then
| in a spirit of loyalty to his owl
highest convictions of public duty
A man must be more or less thar
man indeed upon whom such res
possibilities could fall in circumstan
ces so pathetic and so painful with
out stirring all the best and stronges
instincts of his nature. The pOliti
cal opponents Of the new EXecutiv
| will have time enough and to spar
for dealing with his policy in con
fiict and in criticism. Let us all re
member to-day that the universe
sorrow brings to him a sharper an
sterner personal trial than to an.
other citizen of the republic.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
GOSSIP MANY ToNGUED-CABINET GUESS
Es-FRIENDs TO REWARD, AND AT
LEAST ONE ENEMY TO PUNISH
JONES AND CONKLIEG CONFER.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. Oct.1. '81

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct...1, 81.
To the Editor of The 1IorI istown Gazette:
Those who predicted that Presi-
dent Arthur would walk strictly in
the steps of his predecessor, and be
the executor of the political will of
President Garfield, rather than a
President with an individuality and
a will of his own, have begun to
learn that they were mistaken. 1t
is said by those who ought to know,
that there will be sweeping changes
in the Cabinet and in the official per-
sonel of the government, both at
home and abroad. 1t is doubtful if
any member of the present Cabinet
vii hold his portfolio until the regu-
lar session of Congress convenes. 1t
would be idle to guess who will con-
stitute the new Cabinet. The ru-
NOR is that Mr.. Boutwell, will be
made Secretary of the Treasury. He
held this office under Grant, and is
thoroughly acquainted with tho rou-
tine Of the Department. He is,
moreover, IN accord with the Grant,
Conk ing and Arthur wing of the
party.
1t is believed that President Ar
thur intends to overhaul the Treas
ury Department from vault to at
tick, and to explore every rat-hole
in it. This department is largely
filled with the political household of
the late Secretary, now Senator
Sherman, who forced Arthur to
leave the New York Custom House
under imputation of dishonesty and
NAL administration. Mr.. Sherman
little thought then that Arthur
would be President Of the United
States, with power mercilessly tC
expose the inner management o.
this immense department and tC
discharge the large encourage that
Sherman has appointed to lucrative
places. Many relations of Mr.. Sher
man are in the Treasury Depart
ment-one of them has been char.
ged with extensive peculatiOn, anC
many expect disclosures from the
Treasury Department scarcely less
startling than those that have been
made in the Post Office Department
Ex-Secretary Fish, General Grant
and MIR. Conkling, are all mention
ed for the place Of Mr.. Blaine. Cos
sip is rife, and newspaper men who
have already arrived in large mum
bers, anticipate an unusually inter,
esting season from a journalistic
standpoint. 1t is conceded that this
will be a very stalwart administers
ton in sentiment, at least but such
is the composition of Congress that
President Arthur will be handi
capped and unable t9 give prenonn-
ced political effect to ultra blue
stalwartism. All his important nom
nations will depend for confrma-
zion on a Democratic Senate.
There are those who energetically
insist that this will be an Arthur,
and not a Conkling Administration,
but those who have hastily elimina-
ted Mr.. Conkling from national
politics, know little of the past and
see little of the present. Senator
Jones, the Presidents host, went
yesterday to Utica, and is now in
conference With the ex-senator.
This is not the only stray, but it is
enough, if not to break the camePs
back, at least to show which way
the wind blows.

TOR RARRLS.
From the Memphis Avalanche.

-
The few who were privileged to
hear Senator Harris address at the
memorial meeting of the lawyers OF
Memphis, speak Of it with unstinted
praise. 1t was a worthy tribute
from a Senator Of the United States
to the dead President of the repub-
ric. 1t was not the less impressive
coming from the Senator in his
private character, than if delivered
in the senate chamber. 1t was the
testimony of a witness who knew
the dead man in high places speak
in to those who know the value of
the evidence he gave. 1t contained
assurances, also, as the Avalanche is
informed, of the patriotism and ca
pacity of the successor to execute
the trust devOlved upon him, Con
sidering the political relations Of the
men, what the Senator said of tho
dead Garfield and the living Arthur
was an assurance that the con-
ficts Of craftsmanship do not endan-
ger the institutions of the country
when it's affairs are directed by OPP
ponents such as these. Lamar's
grafton on the character of Sumner
stands as the first offering of South
ern statesmen that made an impress
sion on the mind Of the Northern
people, and the attitude Of the whole
South in this emergency Of the Ma
tons life. approved as it is by its
trusted leaders, is a further guaranty
of real end to the bitter strife of
sections. No Southern man has
done more to promote the healing
Influences than Senator Harris.

TIE SPECIAL SENATE SESSION.
The action of President Arthur
in calling a special session of the
Senate, at the earliest practicable
day, meets the approval of all par
ties. The Cabinet will no doubt be
organized with new men. In justice
to President Arthur it should be.
Many are the speculations INDUCED
in as to its composition. Probably
that of our Washington correspon-
dent is as reliable as any. Besides
the changes that must naturally be
expected in the Cabinet, it is of
pressing importance that there be a
President of the Senate pro tenn. to
stand in the Presidential succession
in case any misfortune should re
move Mr.. Arthur. About the or
ganization of the Senate there ought
to be no discussion. There are 80
Democrats to 30 Republicans, count
ing Senator Davis as a Democrat
and Senator Malone as a Republi-
can. The two New York Senators
and the successor to the late Senator
Burnside can not take their seats
until they are sworn in, and they
can only be sworn in by the Vice
President, or the President of the
Senate. There is no Vice President
nor President of the Senate. But
for this latter circumstance there
would be tie, 38 to 38, and con-
sequent deadlock, which will be
happily averted by the immediate
election of a Democratic presiding
officer. OF course this will be done.
Nothing else is 10 be expected. No
thing else would be proper. OF the
men spoken of for the place, it ap-
pears to be conceded to either Bay |
ard, Pendleton or Harris. Most
likely Senator Bayard will be the
man.

81 don't know about that. | don I
think that Guiteau can be tried
right away. When he is called up
on to plead, the time of his trial
will be fixed. We will have to Sc
cure time in order to prepare for a
defense. Witnesses will have to be
summoned from all parts of the
country, and that will take time"
What will be your defense p
II think that has been pretty
well outlined. l am not in favor of

diction of the court. Our defense
will be insanity, and should not adj

nothing of Guiteau for three years
past until this summer. l do not APP

ed for trial. Our greatest effort will
be to get men on the jury who have

will be fair on the trial l believe
that the Government will see that
Guiteau is protected. and that he
shall have an impartial trial"
