CONDENSED TELEGRAMS.

Mr.. BECK resumed his remarks on
the Arrears of Pensions resolution and the
Sherman funding bill was debated in the
Senate, 18th. In the House, Mr.. Robson
called up the report Of the Committee on
Rules Increasing the membership Of the va
rious committees. He stated the thirteen
committees whose members had before
them now nearly 80 per cent of the business
OF the House. As Mr.. Robson concluded
his brief remarks, he demanded the preyi-
Gus question. A storm of son, no." came
from all parts of the chamber. The confu-
sion was very great, three or four members
speaking at the same time, and several 9TH
ers being on their feet with parliamentary
inquiries.
GUITEAU asked leave to address lie

which | ask your honor to follow, that if the
jury believe that believed it was right to
remove the President because l had special
divine authority so to do, and was forced to
do it.by the Deity, they will acquit on the
ground of transitory mania. L ask your
honor, in the name of justice, in the name OF
the American people, to allow me to adj

may be at stake. If a man on that jury has
doubt as to his duty in acquitting me, my
speech will probably settle him in my
favor"

proper to lay before the jury, they

said that ne appeared as his own
counsel, and claimed the right OF an
American citizen to be heard in his own de-
Tense. Judge Cox made no reply, but sim
ply nodded to Reed to begin his argument.
Reed then arose to address the jury, argu-
ing at some length to demonstrate the in
sanity OF the prisoner. at does not require
an expert to pronounce him insane. You
have seen him day after lsy shutting in be-
fore you. You have seen tnat strange, un-
natural look OF his eyes, and it requires the
opinion OF no expert to convince you that
this is not the appearance Of a sane man."
In conclusion, Mr.. Reed said: "The con-
viction of this man to the gallows and exc
cuton would be an infamy beyond descrip-
ton, an indeible stain upon American
jurisprudence and American juries." Sco-
vile addressed the jury on the 10th,
confessing that he was not familiar with the
modes Of practice in criminal cases. All the
defense asked for was a fair, candid, impair
tial weighing OF the evidence by fair and
candid men. Counsel would attempt no
oratory, because he was not equal to it, and
because he would not do it if he could. 81

namely, Drs. Gray, Hamilton, Kempster,

as follows: David Smith and ms wife lived
in constant warfare for years, in which the
boys sided with the mother. She had forced
him to sign a deed to the farm snd taken
the management Of it herself. Then she re-
fused to sustain the relation OF wife to him
any longer. He entered suit to compel her
to give back the farm, but compromised by
taking half, she agreeing TO allo| him to &C.
cupy the same room with her thereafter.
She kept her agreement a few days and then
hit him with a boot-jack for kissing her.
This was supplemented by a severe thrash
ing by the sons. Recently quarreling was
renewed in consequence of the sale OF a
horse, by Daniel, the second son, and Mr..
Smith disappeared. Knowing that the boys
had threatened the old mans life, neighbors
searched for the body and found it in well,
under nineteen feet of water and pile of
stones. There were two holes in the right
temple, part of his clothes were torn off,
and there were other marks Of scuffle.
Investigation led to the discovery that he
had been shot by Dan while sitting beside
the kitchen fire, and the elder son helped to
drag the body out to the barn lot and throw
it in the we'll, while his wife stood guard
and kept the smaller children locked up in a
bedroom. They were placed under arrest,
and strong guard was necessary to prevent
lynehing by an excited throng.
G.. II. GILBERT, a farmer residing

full load OF passengers, turned over twice.
The ladies' coach was thrown on its side. A

MISCELLANEOUS.

THE Springer bill defining the law of
insanity in criminal cases provides that no
person indicted in United States Courts
shall be acquitted on the ground OF insanity,
idiocy, lunacy, or other unsoundneSs of
mind, except upon proof that at the time
of committing the offense he was laboring
under such defect of reason as either not to
know the nature and quality of the act he was
doing or not to know that it was unlawful or
wrong. A morbid propensity to commit
prohibited acts existing in the mind of a
person who is not shown to have been in
capable of knowing the unlawfulness or
wrongfulness of such acts shall form no de-
Tense to prosecution therefor.

army who, considering the war at an end
when the Confederates laid down their

serters, in consequence OF which they have
not only fretted under something of a stig-
ma, but many with good claims have been
deprived of pensions.
HE Senate committee investigating
contigent fund expenditures find it very
difficult to fasten responsibility for irregu-

purpose seems to be more to get informa-

to make any exposure.

would say would be highly improper to go
before the jury. l shall, therefore, deny
him the privilege. AS I said yesterday,
