GUITEAU, it appears, has his disciples already in theology and practice. Miss Cummings, ot Fredouia, Chatauqua County, who, according to the Fredonia papers, is a beautiful, highly educated young woman and a teacher in that town, has given herself up within the last month to shoplifting and burglary, with young man of Buffalo as her con- federate. They confessed their guilt, but claimed to have acted under an '.in- spiration of the Deity The inspiration in this case guided them to take only silk dresses, china tea-sets, silver and other knick-knacks which would come in nicely in housekeeping. There have been in all ages, in different countries, epidemics of certain peculiar kinds of crime. Suicide, murder by assassination and poisoning, and theft have proved as contagious as smallpox; but this new felony, which calls itself inspiration is the shrewdest of all in looking after the man chance.

The Bourbon Coming to their Senses.

Charleston News and Courier, Bourbon.
 We do not anticipate any serious in- jury to the State from the emigration movement. if it do not spread, and whether it shall spread depends princi- pally on the occurrences of the present year. There Is already in the deserted district a diminunition in the rents charged, and 1t is expected that there will be an advance in tEe rates of wages. This will improve the condition of ten ants and labOrers, and, with favorable seasons and abundant harvests, the emi- grafton mania will die out If this be the result, the present emigration may prove a blessing in disguise. It will show the landowners how far they are dependent on tenants and labOrers for services in their agricultural operations, and 1t will have a wholesome effect on the State Legislature and public officers generally. There are 6O0OO0 cOlOred people in South Carolina, aEd only 40O,- 0OO whites. Fms fact cannot be kept too steadily in view. Any policy which ignores the colored people, and proceeds, as 1t were, upon the hypothesis that only IIIIe whites are to be considered, will be a melancholy and disastrous failure.

HE eastern press can see DO good in any western man. The eastern members of Arthur's Cabinet are all men of abiE- ty and do credit to the position, but the New York press speak of Postmaster General Howe's appointment as step down. Such is not the case, however. Ex-Senater Howe is the peer ot any of his colleagues, and if he does not make a more successful administration of the department than his predecessor we are greatly mistaken in the man. He made his mark as a Senator from Wisconsin, and as an able lawyer and judge on the bench and as a man of strong common sense. We are satisfied that under his the west will not suffer from iniudIciou' Topping off of mail routes b,cause they do not happen to pay. He will not run the department as a private mercantile business with the intention of closing out if 1t does not pay.

AUSTRALIA pro serves an aboriginal tra- dition of sea serpent of enormous size, which lived chiefly on the land but ob- tained its food in the water. In the latter element the creature was timid and dis appeared below the surface in dread of every unusual sight or sound, but when once 1t had drawn its ugly length on shore the natives stood not upon the order of their going. And tales are still preserved of numberless unfortunates who were remorselessly devoured. If the barrel-headed, saucer-eyed, monster which haunts American mariners from Maine to Georgia, but chiefly loves to glide along the New Jersey coast, has no existence save in fancy, it is still pOssi- ble that Australia has something in that line To boast of which is not a scaly fab rication of the brain.

EVEN the Chicago Inter-Ocean is dis gusted with the greed of the doctors who attended NIT. Garfield.

Fast Track Laying.

The greatest feat in railroad track laying 1t Is believed ever accomplished has just been performed by the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, on the west ern section of the road, east of Gomez. Forty miles of steel raIls were laid in twelve days. This is an average of close upon three and half miles per day, and it Is said that no faster work has ever been done in railroad building anywhere. Superintendent Strowbridge, under whose direction the work was ac- complished, telegraphed that the forty miles referred to were finished in every respect and in running order. Fifty ad- ditional miles of road will be turned
 over to the operating department of the company next week, which will make a terminal station on this side about 200 miles east of Fl Paso.-IStock Exchange

4 FIERCE discussion has long been going on in England as to the efficacy of vaccination to prevent smallpox, and to settle it Dr. Buchanan. medical officer of the London Board of Trade, prepared statistics from the official records for the year ending May 30. 1881. These show that the deaths from smallpox in Lon don among the people who had been vaccinated were % per 1,O00.000 of popu- lation. These statistics, if reliable, should be sufficient to sweep away all doubt, but the fickleness of figures un- der the manipulation of experts is pro- verbal, and the controversy is likely to rage as fercely as ever.

capital case to deny any man proper op- portunity to be heard, even If he IS rep resented by counsel, but in thls case l1 is safe to assume that you will abuse the privilege, as you have done all through the trial, and that what you would say would be highly improper to go before jury. I shall therefore deny the prlvii. ege, as I said yesterday. However, II his counsel desire will read rom ms manuscript anything which they deem improper to be laid before the Jury they can do so.' Guiteau protested, ana appeared as his own consel, and elalnned the right as an American citizen to DC heard in his own case. Finding Judge Cox could not be moved he shouted, l"Iet the record show that l appear here as my own counsel and that l take ex- ception to your ruling. Jndge Cox, l shall appeal to the American people, and they will overrule you; you will go down 10 future ages with black stain upon your name" Judge Cox made no reply to this tirade, but simply noded to Reed to begin his argument.

THE GUAYMAs ROAD.

Track-laying is now progressing on the above-named road at the rate Of a mile or over a day, and as the grade Is nearly completed to Magdalena, it will not be long before tie locomotive will be blowing its whistle at the outer walls of that ancient pueblo" The distance from Magdalena to Contention City is but little more than one hundred and fifty miles, and as work will progress from both ends it will require but a short time to close up the gap. By the time this is done the grade on the route from Calabasas to Tucson will be well under way, when the laying of the track to Tucson will require but a short time.

The common practice of having night lights in the bedrooms of children of well-to-do parents is deprecated by Dr. Robert Fl. Bakewell. He says that it has a most injurious effect upon the nervous system of young children. "In- stead of the perfect rest the optic nerves ought to have, and which nature pro- vides for by the darkness of the night, these nerves are perpetually stimulated and, of course, the brain and the rest of the nervous system must suffer.

Total anthracite field. - 3,jS0,U3G 600
 The maximum annual shipment from the whole field is placed at about thirty seven millions of tons, and the culmina- ting point at about the year 1915,
 AIr Harris makes no estimate as to when the entire field will be exhausted, but says: Before many years the in- creased cost due 10 deeper mining will begin to put anthracite at a disadvan- tage as compared with bituminous, and some of the regions will begin t. be ex- hausted."
 8. Professor Raphael Pumpelly, in his preliminary census. report on the pro- duction of anthracite coal, estimates, from facts presented by NIT. Harris, that the output of the census year (21, ,433,- 329 tons) could be maintained for l46 years before exhaustion.
 f. Mir. r. Sheafer, who has resided Tn Pottsville for many years, and has made extensive surveys, says, Tn paper read before the American association, Sep tember, 1879. that 'the total amount of coal still to be mined Is 26,36l ,076,OO0 tons. The total waste, as experience has shown, Is equal to two-thirds of the coal deposit, leaving us only S7SI,O75,533 tens to send to market.
 "The increase of production for the past ten years has been lST T1l2,S57 tons. At this rate e-Ess,iI Es SAaallL L s4aGbGtEg tie supply in 1S6 years"
 The great difference between these es- inmates shows that we have no reliable facts from which to reason. Until the present survey of the anthracite coal fields Is completed, It would be folly for me to suggest another solution to the already much confused Goal Question"
 These estimates do not take into ac- count the deposits of coal of unknown extent in Colorado, New Mexico, Ari- zoDa and Sonoro, which, as soon as rail road facilities are furnished, will play an important part in the coal produc- ton of the country.
