The GsIng GuIfeau.

Washington, 27.-President Grant
gave John w. Guiteau an audience this
afternoon. Guiteau said to DR.. Hicks,
this morning, tina. he was sure of his re-
ward and was ready tc go, but hoped the
execution would be stayed. Mrs. SEQ
vile has arrived and hopes to see the
President and Guitesu.. She intends to
be present at the execution.
j. w. Guitesu, the sssassin's brother,
had sn interview with the President this
afternoon. He was accompanied by
Rev. DR.. Hicks, by special invitation of
the President. Guitesu submitted q
synopsis OF pamphlet he has prepared
as tending 10 show the insanity Of his
brother, and also copy Of the pamphlet
itself He made an earnest appeal on
behalf of his brother and urged the Pres
ideDt to give an opportunity to fully es-
tablish his brothers. real mental cOndi-
ton in the manner proposed by DR..
Beard, of New York, before il was too
late. He was confident q proper medical
examination would show that his brother
was utterly irresponsible for his action.
He deplored his bTothar's crime and could
only account Tor it on MS theory OF IN
spiration.
Rev. DR.. Hicks stated to-day that he
has not asked the President to reprieve
Guitesu on the ground Of insanity, as he
does not claim 10 be an expert on that
question. He has been sent to the Presi-
dent merely in order that ne might give
any information concerning Guitesu's
conduct while under his observation that
might be desired. He says Guiteau is
steadfsst in his theory of inspiration, and
does not u ant to see his brother or any
one else who says be is insane. When
informed of the efforts making to obtain !
him q respite, Guitesu said be hoped the
President would find it his duty to God !
to grant him pardon, as that might be !
the means of educating people up to his /
theory of inspiration; but if 1t could not
be done he would rather hang, and the !
sooner the better. His lsst admonition !
to DR.. Hicks in regard to seeing the Pres
Ident was in the following worts: go no |
more. The matter is now between him !
the Presidency and God. Let him act,
IS he must give an account. He is re-
lpoEsible to God "
The President, in reply to John W.
3uitesu, said he sympathized with him
n his present affliCti0n, and that he
would give to the papers submitted his
careful attention. He did not, however,
leld out to Guiteau any encouragement
o hope for executive interference in his
brothers. behalf.

intendendent of the United States rail-
ways mail service, has telegraphed the
manager Of the Lake Shore road here, to
proceed with the preparations for fast
