The House adopted a resolution, Sat
urday, directing the president pro tenn. of
the Senate and speaker of the House to
declare the final adjournment ofthe pres
ent session of Congress to be Monday,
july 10, at IL noon 1t was reported by
the committee on ways and means and
UNANIMOUSLY adopted without discussion.
It can hardly be hoped that the Senate
will not amend the resolution before con-
curing in its adoption. The Senate is
disposed to take things leisurely and is
apparently in no hurry to adjourn.

THdgibbet on which Guiteau will be
executed next Friday was built about
three years ago, aud was intended to be
used in the execution ofJames Peyton, a
colored man. but a communication of sem
fence saved him. The scaffold was used
in the hanging of Stone, the colored wife,
murderer. It is now pierced tor two
rcpes, having been used for the double
hanging of Bedford and Queenan, in 1880.
Warden Croker says that the execution
will be private, and only few members
of the press and the Jail officers will be
dermitted to witness it.

or Importance to National Banks.

Senator Sherman does not think the ex-
tension of their charters the best way for
the National banks to perpetuate their ex-
istance. The better way, in his opinion,
would he for them to wind up their affairs
before their charters expire and reorganize
under new names; this would obviate the
necessity of legislation and would be the
mos, simple and satisfactory method OF
continuing their existance. In regard to
the objection that his plan would embarrass
executors and trustees whose trust funds
are invested in National bank stock, Mr..
Sherman says: "That does not apply with
half the force to this plan as it does to the
proposed extensions. The executor or trus-
tee under the plan favor would be able
to reinvest his trust fund Immediately af-
ter the affairs of the bank in whose stock
they had been invested were wound up.
In the case of an extension there would be
a grave legal question as to the authority
OF the trustee to continue the old invest
ment in the new bankn

our GOvERNmENT.

The friends OF liberty, at least in the T..
s. A., will admit that our government with
all It's faults ia one Of, or the very best Of
all nations. The public management OF
our affairs is such that great multitudes
come to our shores from every cline and
multitudes more, who cannot come, turn
with longing eyes TO country where they
can find church without bishop and
State without king. The freedom of
speech In the press, Mt the bar and in the
pulpit, and the sweet air Of liberty which
we breathe, coming 10 us everywhere over
our hills and wales, gives to our country
n sort OF pre-eminence. Here all people
meet together, and greet each other as
brethren under just and equal laws. 1t is
the aim Of our government 10 remove OBJ
structions out Of the way of progress in
the departments of science and business of
every description. Every person may feel
free to go on In the path of discovery and
bring whatever good thing can be found
Of any benefit to the races. Advance is
our watchward. Retreat never. All vices
and crimes, old or new, are doomed. Be-
tween our newspapers and other avenues
OF thought we shall in the progress of
events, remove all burdens and teach our
fellow men TO stand erect, disenthralled
and redeemed in the image Of his maker
as the noblest work of God.
Yet, although our government is framed
for the express purpose OF securing the
peace and prosperity OF the people, it's
movements are often very slow. This arises
from various causes. For instance the peo-
pie who choose our executors are not al
ways ready to execute the laws. The eman-
cipation OF the slaves was an act of Justice
that ought to have been done long before
Lincoln gave the proclamation. That
great and good man dared not issue that
immortal instrument until the people were
ready. Now the government which hangs
murderers and imprisons horse thieves and
other outlaws, is very slow to mete ont JUS

John w. Guiteau, the brother OF the as-
sassin, has given up all hope that the
trial will end in ncqu,ttal. In his opinion,
undue hns'e has been manifested by the
prosecution, and unfair advantage has
been taken of the prisoners counsel.
Even II Scoville were successful in win
ming over one or two jurors, the majority
would easily convince such Of their error,
particularly with public sentiment rs ii is
and the positive testimony OF so many
experts tl,nt the murderer is sane and was
no on the I'd oi July. Mr.. Guiteau fur
ther considers that his brothers conduct
in Court has been decidedly suicidal. He
thought verdict would DO speedily ar
rived mt and the criminal executed Ms
soon as possible thereafter. In conclu-
sion, he cast another reflection on the
prosecution by saying that they would do
anything to justify their cause and would
oppose the holding of II post mortem ex-
animation. 1t would seem 10 be about

save him from the gnllows, and failing

Tho New York Legislature.

The Legislature of New York met on
the 2d OF January, but up to the present
time has fniled to make an organization.
The situation, in brief, Is about this:
There are eight Tammany Democrats in
the New York Legislature-Av in the
Senate and three in the House. Without
them the Senate stands Is Republicans
and IA Democrats; the House, 81 Repub-
licans and 90 Democrats. Thus, the Tam
manyites hold the balance power, and no
organization can be effected without fu-
sion. The Tammany members will not
consent to the election of anti-Tammany
ny Democrats consent to the election of
Tammany Democrats. The Republican
members will support neither faction.
This causes dead. lock which can only be
broken by compromise, ind there is al
present little prospect that the Two fac
tions OF the Democratic members will
unite. How long this condition OF thingf
may last, or what will be the result, are
propositions upon which no light has
been sl,ed during the past week. The an
ti-Tammany Democrats would rather see
Republicans in the Legislative Offices thar
Tammany Democrats, and the Tammany
ties are equally bitter towards the other fac
tion. II IL possible That enough Of III,
anti-Tammany Democrats may vote fol
Republicans to effect mn organization O
the legislature, but such II result canno
reasonably be expected 10 occur at pre-
sent. The deadlock may continue fo
some time. Neither Democratic faction
can afford 10 yield TO the other, and com
promise is not probable, since both wil
demand The lions share. Is II not abon
lime for the people Of that State TO abol
ish their legislative body2 Neither part,
nor faction seem 10 accomplish anything
which they were elected TO accomplish.

this troublesome question. The idea hithto
generally maintained in such enactments
that the liquor seller is the sole criminal
has been abandoned, and provision ia
made for imposing severe punishment on
those who drink Persons guilty Of drunk
enness are to be fined for the FIRST and sec.

imprisonment and Acknowledgement; and
the same penalty is prescribed TO dealers
who sell TO drunkards.
