Guitcau on his Act and the COnfed.
erQPy.

Guiteau furnished to the press Saturday
his speech in his own defence, which, he
said, he was certain Judge Cox would not
let him deliver in court. Ii is six columns
in length. and is such logical and forciblc
defence of himself that if anything were
needed the writing of that document alone
might be taken to prove his sanity. In the
course OF it he says:
Had shot the President on my own per-
sonal account no punishment would be too
severe or quick for me, but, acting as the
agent of the Deity, had no choice save to
execute His will. There are more than
thirty-eight cases in the Bible where the
Deity has directed TO Kill for the good OF
the people,. e., to save them from some
far greater trouble. Heretofore political
grievances have been adjusted by war or
the ballot. Had Jefferson Davis and a
dozen or two OF his co-traitors been shot
dead in January, 1861, no doubt our late
rebellion never would have been, and this
would have saved the nation n vast deal of
trouble and expense and nearly a million
of lives. General Grant, after four years
of bloody strife, suppressed one war, and
Providence and / saved the nation one.
As time advances the public will appreciate
this fact more and more.
General Arthur, rs President, is doing
splendidly. No man can do better. ! am
especially pleased with his cOncliatory
spirit and wisdom toward the opposition.
1t is exactly what | wished him to do
viz. unite the factions of the Republican
party, TO the end that the nation may be
happy and prosperous.

The Guiteau Trial.

WASHINGTON, January lG.-The court
opened ut 1910 this morning. Mr.. SEQ
VILE began his address TO the jury by con-
Tossing his unfamiliarity with the modes OF
practice i'm criminal cases, which had re-
suited in his making numerous mistakes
which had undoubtedly initiated against
the prisoner. lie desired, however, pub
liclv to acknowledge and return thanks
for the assistance he had received from the
members OF the bar here and in other
parts OF the cOuntry-asSistance cheerful
" and voluntarily rendered, and which
had very materially aided him in conduct
ing the defence. All the defence asked for
was fair, candid, and impartial weighing
OF the evidence by fair and candid men.
Counsel would attempt no oratory because
he was not equal to it. and because
he would not do it ii he could. He would
address himself to the intellect OF the jury.
Oratory, eloquence, and appeals to passion
he would leave for the counsel who would
follow him Judge Porter, and he desired
to warn them that in the effort OF the learn
ed counsel Judge Porter TO eXpound the
law or explain the evidence, he would IN
yariaby seek to influence them through
their emotions and touch their hearts, and
sway their Sympathies rather than 10 con-
vince their judgments.
The speaker dwell upon the seriousness
Of the duty devolying upon the gentlemen
OF the Jury in arriving at fair and impair
tial verdict, and explained the reasons for
the care and particularly observed by the
court i'm selecting jurors. The counsel
upon the other side would insenslbly add
coloring to the evidence to suit their par
ticular views. and though each might be
honest. vet the counsel upon opposite
sides would naturally take opposite views
Of the ease, and in listening and reading
over the same evidence each would catch
points which would seem 10 make for their
respective sides. As a consequence, in
presenting them 10 the jury tinged with
the cOl0ring Of their (counSeFs) prec0n-
ccivcd opinions, neither would III feallty
present the whole truth.
Mr.. Scoyille cOmplimented the fairness,
honesty. and integrity OF the counsel (Mr.
Dayidge), who had opened the argument
for the prosecution. and then proceeded to
show. owing to the causes he had Just sci
forth, how unfair, partial, and dishonest
MFR. Davidge's comments upon and review
Of the testimony had been. Mr.. Scoyille
said. IL do not care 10 complain, although
I do not think as counsel In the conduct OF
tbis ease | have been treated with fairness.
personally care nothing for II, hut when
II iniures the case in which my efforts are
enlisted then must complain"
MIR. Scoyille proceeded ut length 10 point
ont TO the Jury what he termed the peryer-
ions 81 the evidence by Davidge, after
which the court adjourned until tO-mor-
row

A Murderer Hanged I'm Savannah.

SAVANNAH, January lG.-Jesse Williams
(negro), convicted Of murder In June last,
was hanged to-day at 12t O'Clock, the hour
being fixed by himself. The execution
was in private, but nearly six thousand
people gathered in the vicinity OF the jail
yard. Williams expressed desire to adj
dress the crowd, and was permitted to
make his appearance on the front steps OF
the Jail. A strong detail Of police prevent
ed the crowd from surging upon him, and
he spoke for ten minutes, warning his COL
ored brethren to lead better lives and at
tributing his fate TO gambling and drinking.
He was perfectly cool and self-possessed,
and closed by saying he was perfectly
satisfied to 20, and that his peace
was made with God. He was then
taken into the jail-yard and conducted
to the scafIold, accompanied by colored
minister and the sheriff and deputies.
After a brief prayer on the scaifold the
minister retired, and the black cap ana
moose were adjusted. Williams remained
perfectly firm to the last, and just before
the trap was sprung said "Good-bye" in
clear tone. His neck was completely frac-
tured by the fall, and life was pronounced
extinct in thirteen and hall minutes,
when the body was cut down and turned
over TO his father, who carried II to South
Carolina for interment. He did not allude
to the crime i'm his remarks this morning,
but made full confession several days ago.

Saturday, claimed the recent break for lower
prices as but realization OF the hitherto
suggested theory Of "bales against senti
ment," as follows: "Since the first Of the
wear, we have frequently been called upon to
give some prominence to the theory ex-
pressed by many of the principal bears,
that no matter what the ultimate results OF
the crop might be, the accumulation of ac-
tual cotton in sight and the heavy expenses
thereon, was the factor upon which current
speculation must hinge. In the condensed
parlsnce OF the trade, il was bales against
sentiment and the recent results show a de-
cided victory for bales. The bulls" unable
to stand up under the load placed upon them,
have been forced into free and rapid iquida-
ton, with the natural result of a heavy break
on values, which, Notwithstanding the efforts
for protection, has proven disastrous in some
cases, and added to the feverish features OF
the situation. In addition TO the long cot
ton thrown over so freely, there was, OF
course, great deal OF hammering indulged
in; but since Wednesday the bear element
has developed more cautious tendency, and
large number of the Shorts resting
satisfied with the liberal margin for profit
already before them, covered with some
freedom. The shrinkage on cost does
not appear to have reached the ali-inportsnt
basis upon which renewed demand for con-
sumption and export can he stimulated, and
lust as much cotton az before remains in
sight; bur many OF the trade think il would
be as we'll to hold the position for a while, if
possible, in order to afford buyers fair op-
portuniIy to understand the situation. So
lar as the extent OF the crop is concerned,
