THE TRIAL or GUITEAU,

There was an immense crowd in the
court room Saturday morning, includ-
ing many distinguished persons. The
prisoner began at once to read the
statement already Published, closely
following its text througbout with oc-
casionalshort additions. The hsrangue
itself was emily repetition of his we'll
known pretensions. At the close, he
leaned towards the jury and empbas-
siziDg with his head and hands, said
withan attempt at great soIemnity of
uttefauea;F 81 tell yeu. gentlemen,
just as sure as there is God 10 Heav-
en-, if you harm a hair Of my head,
this nation will go down 10 blood.
You can put my body in the grave
but there will be d day of reckoning"
At the conclusion Of the prisoners
speech at noon the court adjourned
until Monday.
Judge Porter began on Monday the
closing address to the jury in the
Guiteau case. Hundreds Of people
were disappointed in the attempt to
gain entrance to the court room. His
denunclation Of the assassin was very
severe. He spoke of Guiteau as .
man brutal in his instincts, inordinate
in his love Of notoriety, eaten up by
thirst for money, beggar, hyp-
ocrite, canter, swindler, lawyer
who never won q case, and q man
who had left his trail in many States.
he denounced the attempts Of Gui-
teau's associate counsel to pervert the
testimony, and said that their efforts
we're evidently directed with . view
Of inducing one or two jurors to dis
agree with the others Judge Porter
was frequently interrupted by Gui-
teau and Mr. Scoville, the latter Of
whom was especially determined in
bis efforts to prevent the speaker
from correcting Guitesu's statement
relative to public sentiment. -
Judge Porter continued his closing
| argument to tho jury on Tuesday.
He asserted that the defence was
founded on shams and impostures; on
brazen falsehood, which was supposed
to acquire force and strength BY per-
petpal reiterstions. 4 He said that
Guiteau vas q liar, . swindlsr and q
murdererAin heart from the beginning;
that he had grown worse every year
that he had lived; that he was DISC
bedient child, lawless and ungrateful
to his father, and an unkind brother;
that he stung every man who was a
benefactor to his youth; that he had
inordinate desire for unholy notoriety;
and that he grew worse and worse
until his career eliminated in cold
blooded assassination. He was the
most cold-blooded and savage muir
derer Of the last six thousand years.
He also replied to Mr.. Scoville's
structures upon the Stalwart leaders.
Guiteau was reused to fury by Judge
Porter's denunciation of him and re-
piled with the grossest insults.

BY J. F. BRYAN, ESQ.
Drifting away from each other,
Gradually drifting away,
Hearts that once were united
Now are as hardened as clay. =
Each thinks it the fault of the other;
Bot perhaps in that heavenly sphere,
He who made hearts will unite them,
Tho severed they are while here.
Drifting away from each other,
Teaching the heart to range.
Alas tie the love for another -
That often produces the change.
It's hard to heal hearts that are brpken,
When affection IS spsrned and con-
cealed,
Once out Of the desolate hour + d
Loves meaning win stand revealed.
Drifting ? aye, 'sDrifted and Gone p

THERE was a scene of great confusion
and disorder in the House of Representa-
tives on the 18th. Money of Mississippi at
tempted to make a personal explanation
relative to declaration made by the. Speak
er in the early part of the season. The lat
ter declared that If the gentleman persisted
in speaking out of order he would repri-
mand him, at least. Many members on
both sides thought this threat was very
remarkable one to come from a Speaker Of
the House. During the afternoon, Money
consulted with leading parliamentarians,
who concurred in the opinion that the
Speaker had assumed prerogative which
belonged exclusively to the House itself
under the rules. It was decided to ascertain
whether he seriously meant to have it I'M
understood that he would carry out his
threat of reprimand. 1t was for this pur.
pose Money rose to aquestion OF privilege to
make personal explanation and to give the
Speaker also an opportunity to make an
explanation. After reading from the
reporters notes what the Speaker had
said, Money was proceeding te protest
against the unwarranted assumption of the
Chair, hut he was interrupted by the violent
hammering OF the Speaker, who called
Money to order, and declared he would not
permit him to attack the chair. The re-
markable conduct of Keller at this point |
brought nearly every member of the House
to his feet. Scores of Democrats raised /
their voices in protest against the arbitrary |
declaration. The Republicans shouted |
wildly, members began to move toward the I
area, and the Speaker pounded vigorously
with his gavel. By and by McLane, of
Maryland. got the attention of the House,
and in temperate and diplomatic manner
soon convinced most of the Republicans that
he Speaker had gone too far in threatening
20 reprimand members. He showed that
'uch reprimands could come from the House
