Mr. Reed visited the prisoner to-day

that thjs would be his final visit. The

E,ar Guiteau on the other hand was
apparently as happy as though he were
roipg on a long. coveted journey and ex-
dsmed: "Cheer up, cheer up, cheer up!
You have no need to be cast down; l anl
b,ppy and ready to co." Reed, however,
bd not cheer up, and came out in low
.pirits. He said, 81 am deeply cast
lovn by this matter because ! fear this
country is about to make terrible mis-
kesnd will be ashamed oft hereafter.
The country will be disgraced and
nmiliated by hanging an undoubted

knty resigned. She keeps very closely

AN oUTBURST OF WRATH.
Although the behavior of Guiteau
Turing the past three or four days has
psn quiet and composed it has been
marked by the occasional outbursts OF
heSmo fierce tanatical spirit which
npelled him during the trial to del
bounce by turns everybody who took
ny part therein, On Monday night,
o' example, he seemed for a short
ius to be moved by feeling of unu-
ually violent hatred for all who had
zen concerned in the trial or were to !
instrumental in carrying the sen.
once Of The Court into effect.
Arthur will 60 to HE'LL" he exclaim-
passlonately; "the Cabinet will 60
NELL; Judge Bradley will 60 to hell;
% Supreme Court of the D!stlict will |
p!O hell; General Crocker will 60 to
sl, and turning to the death watcher,
ou, too, will 60 u hell" With each |
setltlon Of the word "hell"h he brought |
" hst violently down upon the table
Eve to it additional emphasis.
luis afternoon as Deputy Warden |
M passed the door Of his cell Guiteau
" 70 him in a snarling tone: "if you
we anything to do with my hanging
" Will be damned. You will have
'ake the responsibility" During
greater part of the time, however,
prisoner seems firm and tranquil
~ manfests neither unusual excite
isl' M nor unusual depression.
A0out 2 o'clock DR.. Hicks went into
"ce!l and asked Guiteau if his mind
