GU1TEAU's BRANDT. E. o. Shakes

to whom was committed the duty of making
microscopic examination of Guiteau's
brain, says that the report will be ready
for publication next week. The investiga-
tons. he says, had been under the most
favorable conditions. the brain tissue having
been preserved perfectly in the LIQUID in
which it was placed within six hours after
the death Of Guiteau. Under the terms of
their commission, the surgeons were not re-
CURED to pronounce any opinion or to draw
any conclusions as to the sanity or insanity
of Gluteau, but simply to state the condi-
ton in which they found the tissue; and to
point out and explain the variations from
normal and healthy brain.

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPT. 6, 1882.
AS ANTICIPATED from the first by IL

AS ANTICIPATED from the first by the
GAZETTE, Mr.. John S. Barbour, the present
member of the United States House of
Representatives from this district, was re-
nominated without opposition by the Demo
cratic Congressional Convention held here
to-day. Mr. Barbour doesn't pretend to be
an orator, but efficiency in Congress nova
days does not depend upon oratory, but
upon quiet and influential work, and in that
respect Mr. Barbour is one of the most
effective men Virginia ever sent to Congress.
His counsel is sought not only by the Vir-
GINA delegation, but by the whole demo
cratic side Of the House, and on the republi-
can side he is highly respected. The con-
vention conferred high honor upon one
we'll worthy of it, and reflected honor upon
itself by renoininating Mr.. Barbour without
single opposing vote.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1882-09-06

THE CONTRAST furnished by the person
mel of the Congressional nominating con-
vcntion which nominated Mr.. Farr and that
which nominated Mr. Barbour is sufficient
OF itself to remove any doubts concerning
the worthiness of the respective political Or
CARNATIONS represented by the members of
those conventions even if any such doubts
could exist i'm the mind of q reasonable man.

GENERAL MALONE is not a wise politician.
If he were he would not have exposed the
enormity of the ways and means by which
he obtained his present ephemeral success
in such glarinS colors that even those who
hate the people he hates and who are dis
posed to help him, are compelled, in an eff
fort to save themselves, to cut loose from
him and disclaim any responsibility for his
actions. The New York Times. for instance,
which until recently has been supporting
him, in order to palliatc the oflense of such
support, now puts the responsibility where
it belongs, and says:
THE republican party is responsible for
the disgracetul alliance with Malone in
Virginia, and for the success of the repu-
dation which General Mahone's party adj
Vocated.'"

MANY OF Arabs officers are deserving him and
renewing their allegiance to the Khedive, and the
Sultan has finally proclaimed him rebel. A
lutte brief authority had the same effect upon
Arab that it had upon General Malone. Neither
could stand prosperity, and both will soon come
to grief.

There is rumor in political circles to the
effect that Senator Malone and Gov. Came
ron, realizing the overwhelming force of the
great popular rebellion against Bossism in
Virginia, have determined to go through the
State together and attempt once more to
caJole the masses into swallowing another
dose OF Bossism. 1t is further said that
President Arthur will accompany the two
to some portions of Virginia, and the three
will make gigantic efforts to force the peo-
pie to submit to the one-man power. A
gentleman from Petersburg, Mahone's for
mer home, states that large number of
those who last year adhered to his fortunes
refuse to follow him longer and have turn
cd there backs upon him in disgust From
all portions of the State come similar re-
ports, and the cry, down with Boss rulen'
started by one man in theSenate last winter
has been caught up all over Virginia and is
now the watchword upon which all old po-
iltlcal enemies unite, as sinking forever is
