WASHINGTON LETTER.


THE TEDIOUS TRIAL. HUNG JURY WILL
NOT HANG ABOUT TUE ROPE. THE
NEW CABINET.
T. WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec 8, 1881.
To the Editor Of The Rorristown GAEatte:
Public attention is just now divided
between the tedious trial of Guiteau in
the City Hall, and the CANVASS for the
speakership, which is waged at half a
dozen large hotels. a month ago there
was but one opinion relating to the is
sue of the trial. Everybody thought
Guiteau would be hung, and looked up
on the trial only as decent preliminary
to the inevitable rope. Now, one out
of every three you meet, and perhaps
half the lawyers, are OF opinion that the
jury will not agree. 1t is said that the
jury contains more than one crank
whose sympathy for the guild will
shield Guiteau. Except testimony for
the prosecution may convince every
juryman of his responsibility for the
crime, and Judge Porter's cross exami-
nation of the murderer, eliciting his
sharp and connected replies, ought to
persuade them of the inconsistency of
his defense. Guiteau mistakes his in
fanny tor fame, is happy in the conspic-
uousness that has been the lifelong
craving OF his abnormal egotism, and, /
think, is wholly untroubled by visions
OF the st. Louis rope. 1t is perhaps not
generally known that Mr.. Robert Hum
phreys of st. Louis has the grim privi-
lege OF supplying all the sheriffs of the
United States with an article abso-
Iutely indispensable in the enforcement
OF the laws extreme penalty. For some
years past this singular monopolist has
exclusively manufactured the'rope used
for the execution of murderers through
out the length and breadth of the Union
made OF the choicest hemp, admirably
spun, and OF extraordinary strength.
Mr. Humphreys ropes fulfill their.dread
mission with completeness that leaves
nothing to be desired. They are some
what costly, his charge for them is six
dollars apiece; but, in consideration of
their infallible effectiveness, the execu-
tive authorities consider them cheap at
that price. Down to the present time
no malefactor to whose neck a Hum
phrey's rope has been adjusted secundens
GTtene has succeeded in surviving the
treatment for more than a minute or
too.
THE NEW CABINET.
There has been so much talk over the
Speakership that the new cabinet has
been little thought of. 1t is said the
President will be ready with list OF
names which will probably be confirm
ed at the first executive session of the
Senate. The latest intelligence is that
Mr.. Brewster, of Philadelphia, will be
Attorney General. Ex-senator Bout
well, of Massachusetts,, Secretary of the
Navy; Ex-senator Chaffee, of Colorado,
Secretary of the Interior. Ex-senator
Howe, of Wisconsin, Postmaster GEN
eral; Ex-senator Frelinghuysen, of New
Jersey, Secretary of State. Secretaries
Lincoln and Folger will retain the port
foliOs of War and of Finance. All but
three Of the proposed Cabinet have been
in the q. s. Senate. The appearance
of Mr.. Brewster as Attorney General
would seem to indicate a vigorous poll
cy in the Star Route cases..

Gambling.

The passion for gambling, which is be-
coming a characteristic American vice,
is at once illustrated and melted by pool
selling. Whenever horse races are in
progress anywhere throughout the United
States the pool-shops in this city do a.
thriving business. The pools range from
800 to as high as 800; the tickets are
cheap, ranging from 25 cents to SIS; boys
and young men thrown off their balance
by stories of a comrades success throng
the pool-shops night after night; they
begin by spending all their own money,
they end by borrowing from their en-
ployer's till. This wretched business
destroys all appetite for healthy work,
or pure society, or innocent recreation;
it demoralizes the conscience and de-
stroys the very sense of right and wrong.
The law of this State very explicitly for
bids pool-selling, and makes the keeping
of pool-room, or leasing a room for
pool-selling, or exhibiting any apparatus
or device for registering the selling Of
pools, misdemeanor punishable by fine
and imprisonment. The mayor of this
city has at last walked up the police cap
tains to the fact that there is a law they
have found police justice who promises
to enforce it; and the booksellers, with
an audacious efrontery that is unsur-
passable, have appealed to the news
papers Happily, the newspapers, SO
far as We have observed, without excep-
ton answer the appeal with the strongest
kind of Endorsement of the Mayor
course. Parents and employers could
proftably cooperate with the police, by
learning where their boys spend their
evenings.-ChriStia Union.

We commend the following to the
notice of the farmers of Virginia. 1t
Is an important movement in the righ,
direction. The farmers should have a
building at every Court House for public
meetings of different kinds, including {.
sort of Exchange" where they might
bring articles for sale, or exchange, or *
hibition. Now they have only small
Court Houses which they cannot COM
mand during the sessions of the court.
The Executive Committee of the State
Agriculture Society will meet in January
next, and we hope will take some action
on this communication addressed to them.

December LIST, 1881.
To the Executive Committee of the State AqricuL-
turat Society Of Virginia

ask your consideration and action in

l. Inc appointment OF a committee OF

ties, whose duty it shall be to organize
county society, so as to have one in each
county of the State, to. encourage a sys-
tenn of agricultural improvement and in
crease of domestic manufactures.
2. That the Board of Supervisors of
the different counties in Virginia be re-
quested to have farmers and mechanics
hall built at or near their respective
county-seats for the use of the county So
cieties
3. That your committee appoint
special agent, whose duty it shall be to
carry these measures into effect and to
promote the general interests'of the So
ciety and the State.
4. In furtherance of the object to be
attained by the foregoing resolutions we
request your committee to use its infu-
ence with us in calling State convention

Flowers that Tell the Time.

Almost every flower has a time for
opening or closing its petals, and par
ticular way of doing it. But there are
some flowers which are regular clocks,
and others regular barometers.
The common chick-weed" is sensitive
to cloudy weather, and the " pimpernel'
or poor mans weather-glass hangs it's
head at the approach OF storm.
There is flower called four o'clock
which opens at that hour. The morn
ing glory" opens at three o'clock in the
morning, and closes about nine or ten,
according to its location. The even
ing primrose" opens between five and
seven o'clock in the evening.
Plants sleep just as animals do. When
the little Marsilia, water plant, goes
to bed, its four leaves meet with a "click"
that can be heard. Some petals droop
in slumber, and others fold crossways,
while few curl up lengthways.
