sCOVILLE LECTURES.
And Protests Against the way
of Doing Things In the
Guitfeau Case,

Washington, 14.-Geo Scoville, broth
er-in.law and counsel for Guittesu,
lectured tonight on the Guittesu case.
A large number of tickets were cold.
The audience was small but heartily
spplauded the lecturer. Scoville pre-
faced his lecture with the remark that
he had not the least intention of reflect
ing on the court or endeSvoring to affect
opinion that he desired to address him
self without endeRvsring to extenuate the
crime or create feeling in favor Of the
prisoner. He complained that the press
had no disposition to give that force and
consideration to the defense, (which mad
been interposed in behalf OF the prose-
cution. Not only the press but the pull
pit had prejudiced the Case. The pulpit
condemned Guitt.au on the assumption
that he was sane man and yet not
single minister OF the g ,spel had called
on the prisoner Ia his Gel, and not
single letter had been sent to him by
them, as SAGE man, calling on him 10
repent and turn to God (applanae):
Nineteen-tweutieihiof he letters receIved
here by Guitteau were simple threats
against his life and 10 more than two or
three bresthed q Christian spirit. he
criticised The action Of Judge Davis IN
the recent murder case Ia New York for
going outside the case and iEstructlng
the jury in the Guitteau case and giving
as law what Judge Cox will not give If
he (Scoville) were not mistaken. zap
plsuse). He had good ressen to believe
that the prisoner would not live until the
conclusion of his trial. He (Scoville)
was here to see that Guitteau had far
trial under the forms of law, but he was
not here to guard the prisoner with
troop Of soldiers. Let the responsibility
rest where it might he gave this warn
ing, and he knew whereof he spoke; not
for the life Of the prisoner he gave il but
because he wanted to see order prevail,
and because he did not want to see the
American people disgraced by having q
man on trial for his life assassinated like
a dog. The lecturer declared the great
est penal to the prisoner was in the
passage from the court room to the
prison van, and pointed out the danger
that some desperate man would stab
the prisoner with o dirk and escape
without detestioa. 1t was not the
prisoner alone WHO was on trial. the
question f capital punishment was on
trial, for he predicted that should Quit
tesu be hanged and a postmorsom ex-
animation prove him to have been in
sane, it would be almost the last case of
capital punishment.
At the conclusion of the lecture,
Scoville was applauded and q resolution
adopted expressing sympathy with the
family Of the prisoner and compliment
ing SeoVille upon his management Of the
case.

The three daring boy train wreckers,
who recently operated the Burlington
Cedar Rapids & Northwestern road,
having been captured, have confessed to
the deed. 1t appears that they are waits
whom Whitelaw Reid, of the New York
Tribune, sent West few years ago, to
grow up with the country. A large num-
Der of gamins are sent West from New
York city each year by Mr.. Reid, who is
the agent ofan anonymous charity found
ed for the purpose; most ofthem turn out
well, when placed in the hands ofrespon-
sible Western farmers, but those who don't
continue in the path of wlckedness prove
to be especially wicked citizens, whose
training in the New York cutters has
given them broad foundation for sue
cessful deviltry.

ably and faithfully represented Mr.. Us
trander will be elected by rousing ma

&C. SMITH, Esq, leading Democrat
OF Dodgeville, has issued a card in the
Chronicle of that place, declaring himself
in favor of the election of Gen. Rusk as
Governor The Chronicle says: "Mr.
Smith is certainly not man who would
forego his party fealty to support an un-
worthy candidate of the opposition, and
as his high opinion of Gen. Rusk is the
result of an intimate acquaintance OF
many years, we are forced to the conclu,
sion that the lies which the dishonest
Democrats have been circulating, de-oga-
DRY to our candidate for Governor, can
not be true"

The editor of The Manitowoc Tribune
who resided for many years at Racine
where the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor resides says that he has known
both Gen. Rusk and Mr.. Frat, personally,
for.years. "The former during the trying
times of rebellion against the government
gave it his personal services and distin-
guished himself by conspicuous bravery at
the head of his commando; the latter was
the firm supporter Of the copperhead ele
ment that declared the war failure, that
instigatel and encouraged draft riots and
proposed to compromise with rebels in
arms. Republicans can rally with pride
around their standard bearer while Dem
ocrats can with consistency and as much
pride as the circumstances will admit Of
support their chosen leader But as
the loyal and patriotic people have large
majority in this state, Gen. Rusk will of
course be elected"
The Darlington Republican wants to

stick to the Prohibition movement Is it
because he believes in it? If, SO why
don't he hoist the ticket in his paper and
support it?

GEN. Hurlbut, our minister to Peru,

Wan governments. He presented his
credentials to the government of Presi-

THE President has notified Postmaster
General James that he has concluded to
accept his resignation, and, at the same
time, renominate him as an expression Of
his confidence in the work he has per-
formed in the Star route matter, as well
as to avoid all questions arising from that
section OF the Revised Statutes, which is
claimed by some to limit the term of
Postmaster General.

The GAINESVILLE Gazette remarks:
"There is occasionally found man who
claims that one ticket is about as good
as another, and that it does not matter
much which is elected. 1t does matter
much, though. Other things being equal
even local officer will the more faithful
ly perform his duties and execute his
trust, when under the pressure of party
such as the Republican insisting on its
representatives being of honor as well as
of ability, and whose position in the par
ty depends upon these. The record of
the Democratic party is one purely of
grasping for power, with little regard to
how that power is gained, and the ser
want of this party, however good in and
of himself, cannot but be weakened by
the standing rule of the party: that he is
best, who shows the greatest skill in
grasping, without regard to how he
grasps. The man who thinks that the two
candidates stand about on par, should
look to the pressure which is being
brought to bear on each.''

Our readers will no doubt remember that We

town who has nj times been seized with spccu-
lative mania, but. unfortunately. all his ventures
have turned out disastrously. His first move was
to buy n rsry cheap mule. on this animal he lost
q good round sum, besides Its keep for several
months. lie then tackled calves and no sooner had
he bought the first than veal went down 60 q
figure tar below what Il had been known In twenty
years. lie los, money on the calf and was kept
awake every night for two weeks by It's blating.
lie then conceived the grand idea that there were
millions in chickens. lie launched out in the lat
ter business, but alas il proved greater failure
than either of his former enterprises. His poor
success in the hen business cured his speculative
turn for several months, but this week Il broke out
again and he sailed in with an aJaHdon truly mar.
Velous. a sale was advertised 10 take place near
Towsontown. Now public auction Is something
particularly hard for our young friend to resist,
aud he hcd himself hther in the hope of striking
n bonanza. ibid he strike IT," you ask! Well,
we should smile. lie managed TO keep quiet un-
oil all the valuable articles where disposed Of but
when the auciioncer came 20 the old trumpcry he
could resist longer, and of this wish 10 speak.
lie bid on everything that was put up and by the
time the sale was over he had about ~ fine n col
lection Of agricultural bric-abrac as mortal man

These are some of the questions propoundcd to

his pockets, calmly gazing Mt the heterogeneous
mass. He says nothing. He's got cm-that's all.
