Card from Colonel John III. Savage.
/ 70 the Morning World:
In your brief report of my remarks at the
ratification meeting, at Nashville on Satur-
day night. you say that 1 Sin strong terms de-
nouuced the cause of the boilers" This j.
error that desire corrected. 1t is calcu-
lated to do mischief. The substance of the
little 1 did say was, @that while the platform
was not such asI would have written, as all
men from Carter 20 Shelby would we'll know
yet wanted to beat Mr.. Hawkins and elect
a Democratic Legislature, and therefore
would stand on it and support the nominee
that in politics, as in war, very few men in
the past had ever had things to happen ex-
actly as they desired. In no sense did
one of the highest rights of liberty
and humanity, have thought it best
to secede from the convention. So
far from denouncing "the course of
the boilers" / have sought and conversed
earnestly with Judge Williamson, DR.. White,
General Virgin, II. NJ. Doak. General w.
FL. jackson, Duncan Cooper and others to the
extent OF my opportunity, requesting them
to nominate General Bate when they met,
criticise the platform, and make every con-
test they wish in the election of members OF
the Legislature-I did say that had bolted
one year ago, not upon question of dollars
and cents, but TO maintain a fundamental
principle of liberty, and that the bolt had
been approved and made honorable by the
decision OF the Supreme Court of Tennessee
Il will now cay what could not be we'll said
at such meeting, that liberty and low taxes
in American history are one and the same
thing, and but for the Low-tax bolt we, in all
human probability, would to-day be living

lature. These gentlemen have as much right

prevail and liberty will live. Respectfully,

s, THE assassin.
,la1s BRoTHER-MAKEs A STRONG APPEAL TO
THE PRECEDENT.


WASHINGTON, June z7.-John w. Guiteau
the assassin's brother, had an interview witt
the President this afternoon. He was accom-
panied by the Rev. DIR. Hicks by special in
+ vitation of the President. Mr.. Gditeau sub
mitted a synopsis of the pamphlet he ha.
prepared as tending to show the insanity oil
his brother, and also a copy of the pamphlet
itself. He made an earnest appeal IN behalf
of his brother, and urged the President to
give an opportunity to fully establish his
brothers real mental condition in the N amer
proposed by DR.. Beard, of New York, before
it was too late. He was confident that a
proper medical examination would show
that his brother was utterly irresponsible for
his actions. He deplored his brothers. cri me
and could only account for it on his theory
OF inspiration.
The Rev. DIR. Hicks stated to-day that he
has not asked the President to reprieve Gui-
teau on the ground of insanity, as ne does
not claim to be an expert on that question.
He has seen the President merely in order
that he might give any information concern
ing Guiteaus conduct while under his obser-
walton that might be desired. He says Gui-
teau is steadfsst in his theory of inspiration,
and does not want to see his brother or any
body else who says he is insane. When in
formed OF the efforts making to obtain him
a respite, Guiteau said he hoped the Presi-
dent would find 1t his duty to God to grant
MIN pardon, as that might be the means of
educating people up % his theory of inspi-
ration. But if it could not be done, he
would rather hang, the sooner the better.
His last admoniIion to Dr.. Hicks in regard
TO seeing the President, was in the following
words: "Go no more. the matter is now be-
tween him (the PresidenD and God Let
him act, as he must give an account. He is
responsible to God"
The President, in reply to John w. Gui-
teau. said he sympathized with him in his
present affection and that he would give to
the papers submitted his careful attention.
He did not, however, hold out to Guiteau
any encouragement to hope for executive
interference in his brothers behalf.

the conduct of the boiters of last week by
tine bolt of himself and his associates in
1880. Ia this he is at least consistent But
the seemingly beautiful scheme will not
stand the test OF party principle. Savage
was wrong in 1880 and Bailey is wrong in
1882. Both were bound TO yield to the will
of the majority, rebellirg against which
nothing In party exigency save a total renag-
ing OF principle will justify. The will of
the majority Is supreme; it governs in all
bodies; wilhout such an absolute law no
