Washington, March 6.-In an inter-
view between Guiteau and Scoville yes
terday, the former assured the latter he
was sorry he had abused him on the &C.
casion of his last visit and promised not
to offend again. Strange as it may ap-
pear, a woman was at the bottom of
the affair, which grew out of Scoville's
withholding a letter from Guiteau. A
young lady signing herself "Clara
Augusta Davis" residing in Hoboken,
N. j., took the trouble to write thir-
teen closely written pages of letter
paper to the prisoner in which she as
snred him of her devotion to his inter
ests and her intention of getting him
out Of Jail if money could accomplish
such an object. The prisoner answered
her at once, but when her reply came
it fell into Scoville's hands and he
opened it. The picture of a handsome,
intelligent looking young woman
dropped out of the missive, which was
addressed so "My poor, dear, perse-
cuted friend" 1t proceeded to give in
chaste and elegant diction her feelings
for the prisoner, and described in
a graphic manner how she had tainted
when the verdict of the jury was an
nounced. Scoville retained the letter,
and on the occasion of his recent trip
to New York endeavored to find the
writer. After considerable trouble he
ascertained her lodging place, but was
unsuccessful in finding her at home.
He became convinced that the woman
simply wanted Guiteau's reply's as
souvenirs and consequently withheld
the letter from him. Guiteau, how ever,
received another letter in which the
writer complained that he did not care
for her or he would have acknowledged
the receipt of her picture, and this had
a tendency to render, him furious at
Scoville's action. When the latter en-
tered his cell he Immediately began to
abuse him for keeping private matters
from him and grew so excited that his
counsel hurriedly vacated his quarters
and did not visit him again until he re-
turned from New York. The priso-
ner'ss anger had cooled considerably,
and when Scoville told him of the re-
suit of his investigator, he seemed per-
fectly reconciled. He informed him
further hat he intended to bring out
another edition of his book, 1.-THE
Truth" in which he still exhibits
great reliance, and would sell it to
visitors at the jail for SO per copy. He
exhibited a roll of greenbacks, and said
he had enough to insure the payment of
any publisher who undertook the con-
tract to do the printing and binding.

Washington, March 6.-The bank
ruptcy bill reported in the senate says:
Any one who shall become involved in
debts beyond $500 and upwards which
he cannot pay, he may apply by petition
in equity to the United States district
court, setting forth the cause of insol-
vency, and scheduling his liabilities
and assets, and may surrender his es-
tate for the benefit of the creditors,
except such as may be exempt from
execution. The court shall adjudge
him bankrupt; if good cause appear,
appoint a receiver, and serve notice to
all interested, and distribute the estate
according to the rules of equity, and If
there was no fraud the petitioner shall
be discharged as q bankrupt. When
he absents or conceals himself or
fraudulently transfers his property, or
attempts to defraud his cred
itors, the latter may file a petition
against him. Insolvency shall exist
only when the debtors liabilities exceed
the value of his property. The court
may extend or stay the proceedings.
If it is preferred the creditors may be
made of those who who have loaned
the bankrupt money for sickness, or in
good faith to avert the bankruptcy or
necessity. If any creditor has
oppressively sought to force the debtor
into bankruptcy, or obtain any fraudu-
lent advantage oyer other creditors, the
court may deny participation in the es-
tate.

1t is a pleasure, when afflicted with
rheumatism, to cure yourself when it
can be done so effectually and inexpen-
sively, as with st. Jacobs Oil. Mrs.
Ann Dougherty resides at 1854 E street,
South Boston. She is an elderly lady,
and has been afflicted with salt rheum
between her fingers for over sixteen
years. She suffered terribly, and tried
all kinds of remedies without obtaining
any relief. She used st. Jacobs Oil
four times, and by that time she could
sleep at night, which she could not do
before. She used st. Jacobs Oil again
and got better and better, until now
she is entirely cured. She commenced
the use of st. Jacobs Oil about two
months ago, and now thinks there is
nothing like it. Her hand used to
swell terribly, but all that has gone now.
Her disease commenced to abate about
the time she first used.the Oil, but she
has had no swelling since.

strikes me mighty favorably. I'd have
to put in the greater part of my re,

The rigidity of supreme court etiquette
was suspended long enough to manifest
an audible appreciation of Judge Blair's
newly found tribulation.
Chief-Justice Sener: 81 understand
that there is somebody who desires to
be naturalized; is he present in court,
or is it Judge Jones?"
NJ. G. Brown: If the court please,
Judge Jones says that if he could be
civilized he wou Idn't mind it,"
Chief Justice Sener: "We will refer
this case to Brother Blair.
Judge Blair: "Oh, yes, that's right.
Somehow or other all the hard cases fall
to me-"
Suspension of etiquette as aforesaid,
with Judge Jones in a query as to where
the laugh came in.

An Eloquent Passage.

1t cannot be that earth is mans
only abiding place. 1t cannot be
that our life is bubble cast up by
the ocean of Eternity to float mo-
ment upon its waves, and sink into
nothingness. Else, why these his b
and glorious aspirations which leap
like angels from the temple of our
hearts, forever wandering unsatisfied?
Why is it that the rainbow and
clouds came over us with a beauty
that is not of earth, and then pass
of TO leave us to muse on their love
lliness2 Why is it that the stars
which hold their festival around
the midnight throne, are set above
the grasp of our limited facul-
ties, forever mocking US with their
'uDapproachable glory? And final
ly, why isit that the bright forms
of human beauty are presented TO
our view and taken from US, leaving
the thousand streams ofour affections
to flow back in Alpine torrents upon
our hearts /? We were born for a
higher destiny than earth. There
is a realm where the rainbow never
fades, where the stars will be spread
out before us like islands that slum-
Der on the ocean, and where they
pass before us like shadows, viii stay
forever in ourpresence.-G. d. Prem

Face DimcnIsies.

Have the courage to face the diff
Guilty, lest it kick you harder than

Have the courage to leave q conviv-

think it to be, and the act is worthy
of a king Have the courage to ad-

wolves in 3 Church.

While the inhabitants of the Span
ish village Unarre were attending
the celebration of the midnight mass
in their parish church on Christmas
eve last, a terrible surprise was await
ing them outside the sacred edifice.
During the service a pack of hungry
wolves had gathered around the
church doors, and when these were
thrown open to let the congregation
out the ferocious brutes, stimulated
by famine to an unusual display of
audacity, made a desperate on
slaught upon the crowd. According
to an eye witness an indescribable
panic ensued. Men and women
alike, screaming for aid, strove to
escape from their savage assailants;
several, while struggling frantically
to reach the doorway, fell down and
found themselves at the mercy of
the famished wolves. The only man
who displayed any presence of mind
was the sacristan, who contriyed to
Chamber into the pulpit, and thence
initiated the bark of a dog so effect
lively that the invaders took fright
and fed, but not before they had
killed three oftheir victims and man.
gled five others so horribly that
they were not expected to recover
at the time when this tragical affair
was published in the Spanish papers.
Measures have been taken-some-
what late in the day, as is generally
the case in the peninsula-by the 10
cal authorities for the extirpation
throughout the district at present in
tested by those cunning and san
guine carpivora.

What a strange thought All the
world is seeking rest. Those who
drag their weary bodies home night
after night, and fall down on their
restless beds worried with the ankle
ties and cares of business, and yet
seeking rest. It is found in power
ty ; perhaps it Turks under the rich
man, all the while that he lies groan-
ing upon his couch or stands with
wrinkled brow perplexed with care.
Where is rest 4? What is rest? 1t
is the divine principle of peace that
comes from God. As well seek
roses on the pallid cheek of death
as rest out of God. The needle
rests not till it turns to the pole.
If a little child is frightened at play,
he comes running into the house af-
ter his mother. She takes him into
her bosom, presses kisses upon his
brow, and while she sings some lul-
ably of love, all fear fades from his
face and he sleeps in peace. God
wants to fill mothers place TO all
the world. Ifit be misfortune or
poverty, or gloomy foreboding that
makes one unhappy, God can give
him rest and breathe a lullaby of
love about his tempest tossed soul
viii still its ringing. Rest, peace, is
a principle that lies within us, not
without. Some not possessing it,
have q crowned head uneasy. o,
that every anxious. longing heart
would look to him who waiketh
among the golden lamps of heaven.
Take my yoke upon you, and We
shall find rest unto your souls"
