CAMDEN.

On the 18th day of May,in the township
of Camden, Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Brumby
celebrated their golden wedding. 1t was
a very pleasant gathering ard from var
ious substantial tokens of respect by friends
from Wellington and at home we could
see that they were justly held in very high
regard. They bid adieu to home and
friends and severed the strong ties that
bound them to England and came here
twenty four years ago; determined to earn
for themselves a home. Beginning with
only eighteen sovereigns and large fami-
ly they have finally, with very comendsble
industry and the usual economy, sue
ceeded in getting q home in which to
patiently wait for their hundredth anniver-
sary. They have living five sons and
three daughters, who are filling honorable
callings in life. When the country need
ed strong hands and brave hearts one son
went into the service and was mortally
wounded amid the carnage of Chancellor
vile, but another came home alive.
The dinner was all that taste could sug-
gest or the hungry man desire, and the
restaurants in the country will have to al
low friend Perkins to carry off the palm
for ice cream. Long may this bride and
groom live to enjoy their home and bless
the community by their honest Christian
example. F. NJ. G.

LATER NEWS.

In the Guiteau case before the Court
In Banc at Washington on the 22d, the Court
decided that the court below which tried the
case had Jurisdiction. and that it was proper
to try for murder in the district where the
murderous assault was made. As to the ex-
pert testimony, the court decided that it was
no error to allow answers to the question as to
whether Guiteau knew the difference be-
tween right and wrong. As to the admis-
sion Of the testimony Of Mrs. Dunmire,
that the question % f Of @ sanity % or in
sanity Of Guiteau was not q question the
answer to which could be ruled out as 4 COM
munication breaking the Privity of marital re-
laiionship. The court held there was no error
in fixing the day for the execution, and gener-
ally that the murder was committed where the
murderous blow was struck, regardless Of the
locality of the actual demise. In regard to
land, at the time of the cession OF the
District of Columbia to the United States,
claimed to be still in force, that where
the fatal blow was struck in one county and
death occurred in another, the crime couldnot
be punished in the former and possibly in
neither. Judge Hagner read special decision
covering the whole ground, and reciting all
the precedents, concluding by holding that
law, where the murderous blow was struck.
The first part of the opinion was read by Judge
James After Judge Hagner had conclud-
ed, Chief Justice Carter announced that the
opinions read were the unanimous conclusion
the court, that new trial be denied, and
the Judgment of the court below be affirmed.
One point In the decision, as read by Judge
James, was that the Governments of the United
States had exclusive Jurisdiction over the
District of Columbia, and that murder COM
mitted therein was crime against the United
States.
