A Terrible Arraignment.

AhEAAethb
NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-Thomas M. Nichol
in a card " the Tribune in reply to al
attack by the New York Commercial AID
yertiser in regard to the Cleveland Gar
field monument, uses the following Ian
guage: "All you who glory in the lam,
OF stalwarts and who took part in tn,
yilli1cation aud abuse OF President Gar
field last Summer. who sought to contro
his official action, or to degrade and de
stroy his character and reputation, you art
responsible for his murder. His blood Il
on your garments, the whole gang Of you,
and you cannot wipe it of. You have been
dealt with very tenderly. touching your
grave responsibility for this crime, but
everybody knows you are guilty. and you
feel 1t yourselves in your Utmost souls. II
was your abuse and denunciation that in
spired Guiteau to remove the President a.
o political necessity, and you will NOT be
permitted much longer to hide the stains
on your hands, or distract attention from
them by raising a dust around the heels Of
Blaine. by throwing mud at Sherman or
heaping ridicule on me. Your crime was
not merely the murder OF q man, it was a
transfer OF Government by murder to the
hands OF q faction OF the party, which, IL
the question could have been submitted to
the people at the time it was done, you
would not have received one vote in a
thousand. One would think, with such
facts hanging over your heads in the clear
daylight OF public knowledge, you would
have sense enough, though destitute Of all
decency, to enjoy the lease Of power the
assassin gave you, which the law allows,
without persistently villifying the chosen
friends and associates Of your victim, who
was the Nations choice. Why, you are
the most stupid fools in the world TO keep
on provoking a discussion of these old
matters. You stand the acknowledged
criminals, morally responsible for and
guilty Of Garield's murder; but against
you. on account Of your friends. and the
good name Of the community, prosecuting
witnesses are 10th to proceed; but when
you treat mercy az cowardice, and to guilt
add insolence and defiance, you are no
longer entitled to forbearance. So, now,
II you want q reconsideration and q full
discussion Of the whole subject, proceed
with your abuse"
