RREwsrrR ON CAMERoN IN 1877,

Last winter our people were shocked

the irresponsible son of a Senator of

his acts have become part of public his

deliberation than can be given in a
casual conversation like this--a son that
has neither mind, attainments, dignity of
character, knowledge of public affairs,
party services or personal worth to war.
rant his advancement, and who has no
record but bad one as an intriguer and
manager of bad men. He was first forced
into the War Department, as the price of
his offer to betray his State and renomi-
nate General Grant, and after being there
he was so base born in his notions of de-
cency and gentlehood as to solicit and
urge, by all the mean arts of political
contriVance, that he should be retained
as the companion of Cabinet officers and
gentlemen who did not want him. Fail
ing in that, by the coarse brute force of
organized power he jostled his old father
out of his place, and thrust himself into
a Senate where he will be an object of
derision and disgust. The public are
sick of these odious men, and the public
will do away with them. We have de

THE RECENT CYCLONES.

ages and Cahnaltiess

CHICAGO, June 26.-The cyclones which
have for the past few days traversed and
desolated this section seem to have followed
no particular course, but to have dropped
here and there at points as widely separated
as cities in Nebraska, Michigan, Dakota Ter
ritory and Southern Indiana. While the
ravages in Iowa have been most serious to
life and property, the aggregate losses in
other parts Of the country are very heavy.
Among the incidents taken st random from
the interminable list are the following:
At Osceola, Ia, yesterday, Adam Miller and
William Lowe were killed by lightning.
Between Morrison and Round Grove, ILL.,,
1900 feet of the Chicago and North
western track was washed away.
The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy
Railroad suffered even more west of Men
dota, Nebraska. Yesterday morning q ter
rife storm gat hered In Butler county, swept
southwest through Saunders, Lancaster,
Cass, o .oe and Nemsha counties, doing the
greatest damage in belt TWENTY-FIVE miles
In width between Wahoo and Weston. Two
houses were blown down in Wahoo, and a
two-story barn carried fifty feet through the
air. A herd OF l25 ponies were swept by
the storm eight miles southwark over fields
through wire fences. Not pane of glass
was LETT in the windows facing west. A
schoolhouse al Clear creek was completely
wrecked. One man was killed and three
injured near Talmadge, on the Missouri
Pacific while seeking shelter under a freight
car which was hurled against them.
Three people were killed at De-
catur, Indiana. Cases of single
deaths are numerous, and of injuries they
are almost innumerable. Near Lafayette,
Ind, there was a terrific water spout eight
feet high on Saturday night, which chased
a train coming to this city for q considera-
BILE distance. 1t whirled rocks and In
mense trees along in It's course, but it spent
its fury before Il caught the train.

GUITEAU'S DEATH WARRANT.
Interview With the Assassin.

Guiteau's death warrant has been prepared
by Mr.. W. E. Williams, Deputy Clerk of the
court. 1t is as follows:
In THE SUPREME COURT OF THE DISTRICT
OF COLUMBIA, Nav %, 1882 United States
against Charles j. Guiteau-No. 14,O56-
Murder--The President of the United States.
To the Warden Of the United States Jail Of the
District Of Columbia, greeting:
WHEREAS. Charles j. Guiteau has been
indicted of felony and murder by him done
and committed, and las been therefor
arrsigned, and upon such arraignment has
pleaded not guilty, and has been lawfully
convicted thereof; and whereas, judgment
of said court has been given that the said
Charles j. GuIteau shall be hanged by the
neck until he be dead, therefore you are
hereby commanded that upon Friday, the
Both day of June, In the year of our
Lord 1882 "a. D. 1882, between the
hours Of twelve O'Clock meridian ana two
o'clock post meridian of the same day, him,
the said Charles j. Guiteau, now being In
your custody In the common jail- OF the
District OF Columbia, you convey to the
place prepared for his execution, within the
walls OF the said jail Of the District of Co
lumbia, and that you cause execution to be
done upon the said Charles j. Guiteau, in
your custody so being, in all things accord
ing to said judgm ent, and this you are by
no means to omit at your peril; and do you
return this writ into the Clerks Office of
said court, so Endorsed as to show how Won
have obeyed the same.
Witness: D. K. CARTIER,
Chief Justice of said Court.
The warrant was signed on Monday by
Mr.. Meigs, the Clerk of tie court, and sent
to the Warden.
The Rev. DR.. W. w. Hicks gives the fol-
lowing account of his visit to Guiteau: He
called about 11:30 O'Clock and remained for
an hour. He informed Guiteau of the re-
suit at once of the efforts in his behalf.
This announcement did not seem to have a
depressing effect upon him, and he talked
as cheerfully as ever. He expressed some
feeling because tie President had referred
the subject Of his respite to the Attorney
General, saying that President Arthur
should have taken the responsibility him
self; that he (the prisoner) had not ap-
pealed to the Cabinet, but to the President,
and as his act had made him such it was
the least the President could do to respite
him for short time till the case could be
heard In the Supreme Court OF the United
States. He then repeated that he was Gods
man, and was in Gods hands, and asked
DR.. Hicks to be at his side when he was
hanged, saying that ne would die for his in
spiration, feeling that God would Justify
him In the other world. He had now no
personal interest in the matter, but he felt
for the nation, which would suffer In the
event of his being hanged, and he now
fully expects to be hanged. Dr. Hicks and
the prisoner engaged in religious converse
tion for some time, and, before parting, ar
rangements were made by which DR.. Hicks
would spend some hours with him daily.
