THE QUESTION OF INSANITY.

The average common sense of the
American people has rejected with i'll
dignation and contempt the plea of in
sanity for which the GINNING Guiteau
laid the foundation, before his cowart;lv
shot inflicted its shock on each Of
them. The best expression of the
common sense. view Of this plea that We
have heard OF, was that given by Gen.
Slocum. in his address before the Grand
Army of the Republic, on the day of
General Garfield's burial. Said he: If
Guiteau was insane. Washington is full
of lunatcs, and ought to be walled in as
a lunatic asylum. Ii Guiteau was in
sane, it was a sort of insanity to be dis
ccuraged by hanging
The question of Guiteau's insanity is
so one-sided, as regards his being cnti
tied to be hung, that it would not be
worth serious discussion. but for some
important extrancous considerations.
First: 1t is Il matter of fact there is
such widespread deep and unchanee-
able feeling that he ought to hang, that
the failure of the regular processes of
the law would involve the almost abso-
lutte certainty of his being hung irregu-
larly, which would be Il national misfor-
tune, if not disgrace.
Second: An acquittal of Guiteau on the
ground of insanity would tend to intro
auce an era of 'insane assassinations
and black -maiinGs. The inference that
wonld he drawn b. molbiI. .eualrss. aud
nnprincipIed Office seekers. like Guiteau.
or by excited, desperate, and "smart "
adventurerers in speculation. like Col. =
Wellcs, would be that they could either
kill or threaten to kill any one, for noto-
riety. revenge, blackmail OF other pur-
poses, provided they laid the foundation
for the insanity dodge By documents
in which the language Of religious mono
maniacs was cariratured.
Griteau is of slight consequence. We
believe that in his case the old aati-capi-
tai punishment proverb-" The worst use
You can put 4 man to is to hang him -
is self-evidently absurd. But what We
fear is such an enlargement of the al
ready dangerously extended plea of in
sanity as will literally bring OR Us Il new
reign of terror, in which no man Of
very high official position or great wealth
will be safe.

THE ARMIES OF TWO REPUBLICS

While the General of our little army
was preparing the annual report in which
he begs Congress to allow the United
States 4 military force of 26. GG0 men,
Gambetta was drawing up schedule of
the things upon which he insists in form
ing 4 Cabinet, prominent among which
is standing army of 60o.O men,
France, country having but two-thirdS
the population of the United States. must
maintain an army twenty-four times the
size of that of the latter country. Ii
Gen Sherman should ask such force as
that demanded by Gambetta, it would
be difficult to prevent his confinement in
a mad house. Had Gen. Grant proposed
a standing army of 600, 900 men for the
United States. he would surely have been
pronounced a Caesar by his countrymen.
and he would have been watched at every
movement as the foe of the Republic.
Does Gambetta' proposition of a stan,i-
ing army of 600. 900 men alarm France {?
No: it is not an unusual thing for that
country to have one man out of every
sixty habitants, that is about ono man
out of every twelve member Of her
/ army. Gambetta even proposes 10 re-
duce the number of years OF compulsory
service from five to three. aud although
he intends to form an additional force
from volunteers who have passed through
the regular army for service in Africa,
that scheme is attributed to no ambition
to make himself monarch after the NAH
ner of the Great Napoleon. France bears
/ the burden of her vast army without a
murmur of complaint, and in spite Of
the drain upon her resources she thrives.
| We may be thankful that we bear no
such gigantic burden, but at the same
time the knowledge that France carries
| the load so easily must make us con-
scious that we appear ridiculous when
protesting against the expense of giving
Gen. Sherman 430 companies of fifty en-
listed privates each, in all. an army OF
| 26.660 men. Unlike our sister Republic.
we do not depend upon great army for
| the maintenance of our power as a ma
| ton, but the man deserves to be ridiculed
who protests against the expense of max
| ing the arms of the United States Ole
| twenty fourth as strong as the army of
! France.
