eternal ennnty, as dld the Jews, by kill ing my man, my Savior. The retribution in that case came quick and sharp, and know that the divine law of retribution will strike this nation and my murderers in the same way. The diabolicsl spirit of this nation, it's government and its news papers toward me will justify Thee in cursing them, and know that the divine law of retribution is inex0rable 1 there fore predict this nation will go down in blood, and my murderers, from Executive to hangnan, will go to hell. The laws are memorable Oh, Thou Supreme Judge Woo unto men that violate Thy laws; only wailing and gnashing Of teoth await them. The American press has large bill to settle with Thee, righteous Father, for their vindictiveness in this matter. Nothing but blood will sstisfy them, and now my blood be on them and this nation and its people. Arthur, the President, is coward and an ingrate
 His lngratitude to the man that made him and saved his party and land from overthrow has no parallel in history. But Thou righteous Father, will judge him. Thou knowest ne, but tho world hath known me, and now go to Thee, Savior, without the slightest i'll feeling toward . human being. Farewell, ye men of earth. CHARLES T. GUIrEAU."
 At several points he paused and en- deavored to impsrt an increased empha- sis to his words by peculiar facial erpres- sions, often observed during the trial when ho was angered at something which was said OF done. This was peculiarly noticeable when he alluded to President Arthur and when he declared that the nation would go down in blood. When he had finished his prayer he again rur- veyed the crowd and said in still firm voice: II am now going to read some verses which expect indicate my feelings at the moment of leaving the world. If set to music they may be rendered effect i've. The idea is that of child babbiing to his mamma and to his papa. 1 wrote it this morning about ten o'clock" He then commenced to chant the verses in a sad, doleful style: q am going to the Lordy; I am so glad. 1 am going to the Lordy; glory hallelujah! I am going to the Lordy. love the Lordy wish all my soul; glory hallelujah! and that is the reason I am going to the Lord. Glory hallelrjah! Glory hallslujah! am go- ing to the Lord!' Here Guiteau's voice failed, and he bowed his head and broke into sobs, but he rallied little and went on with his chant: ''I saved my party and my land. glory hallelujah! but they have murdered me for it, and that is the reason I am going to the Lordy. Glory hallelujah! Glory hallelujah! am go- ing to the Lordy" Here again his feel ings ovcrcane him, and he leaned his head or the shoulder of Dr. Hicks and sobbed pitifully. Still he went on: q wonder what l will do when I get to the Lordy. guess that I will weep no more when get to the Lordy. Glory hallelu- iah"' Here there was another interrup- ton, caused by sobs and emotion which he was unable to repress. He wept bit terly, and then with quivering lips and uournful tones he went on to finish his ditty After finishing his chant Dr. Hicks gave Guiteau his final benediction and farewell, saying: God, the Father, be with thee and give the peace forever more." The attendants then pinioned his legs earthly and adjusted the moose about his neck. Mir. Strong placed the black cap over his head, and as he did SC Guiteau cried out in loud voice, "Glory Glory, Glory" Instantly tie trap wa. sprung.
