THE MONKEY, CAT AND CHEST.
NUTS.

The old game Of the monkey taking
the cats paw to pull the chostnuts
from the fire, has its prototype even
in this enlightened age, and is tolerably
we'll appreciated within hailing dis
lance of Lewiston. A few disaffected
spirits, held out Aatteriny inducements
to chip to start q newspaper here to
war upon, break down and absorb the
TELLER. He came and commenced
tho work under their instructions, but
soon not only disgraced himself but
placed them in no enviable light before
the public, and they kicked him out
almost peuniless, and went for another
whom they thought could do their
work with more vim and fidelity. He
came, he saw, he fought for them, but
he did not conquer, nor did he break
the ranks Of the TELLER. Now, too,
he has got himself into limbo, the
sheriff having seized and now holds
all his property for debt, end he natur-
ally applied to those whom he had
served for relief. But the cold shoulder
is turned upon him, and they say they
have had enough of this business of
fighting the TELLER. 1t costs too
much, and the honors are not even.
MoRAL.-Before you build castles
see that you have a foundation upon
which to build, skilled workmen and
money to pay expenses.

the South, when all their social and
commercial relations are with Wash
ington, and will forever remain with
them, despite any political opposition
which the ring men of Boise City seek
to impose upon them. Mr.. Ainslie, in
opposing Brentz' bill, is only serving
that corrupt ring, and he knows the
fact.

PROBABLE FATE OF aUITEAU

Since the death of President Gar
field the universal conviction of the
people has been that Guitteau should
suffer the penalty of death for his
great crime, not only against the life
Of Garfield but against the life and
vigor of the nation. While the ma,
ton could only be expected to suffer
temporarily by the attempt, yet the
crime was none the less to be palliated
in respect to the assassin, and had
Garfield died as private citizen from
the effect Of Guitteau's pistol ball, he
should have been hanged for the crime,
and we believe he would have been
hung without one-tenth part the effort
to save him that has been made 10 his
recent defense before the court. But
the suspense has been broken and the
people now breath more freely, since
the law has been indicated in his
conviction of the crime Of murder in
the first degree. On tho eve of the
25th Of January the case was sub
mitted to the jury under the instruc-
tions of Judge Cox, and the jury re-
tired and within the short period of
six minutes after they commenced the
consideration of the case together they
reached a unanimous conclusion to
find verdict of guilty, as charged in
the indictment" and soon after brought
their verdict into court and It was pro-
nouncsd and entered on the record,
and the result was soon teiegraphed to
the remotest parts of the Union, pro
ducing the greatest satisfaction and re-
joicings everywhere. Efforts will be
made by his counsel tor new trial but
it is conceded that all possible lenity
was granted to tho prisoner in the
long and tedious trial which has Just
closed, 90 that really his counsel find
no reasonable grounds for showing
that he has not had fair and impair
tial hearing upon all the points tina
could be set up in his defense, therefore
no sane man can believe for a momen
that new trial will or can be grantee
under the law. All that remains fo
him is his sentence and execution a
provided by law. The moral which
thus has been taught by the govern
ment is that no person nor politica
party can strike down the head of tn,
nation by death, and have any hope o
escaping the punishment justly due t.
the murderer, and that this government
will not tolerate the life of any maj
who claims that divine inspiration
prompts him to take the life of his fol
low man. We have no room for be
ings thus inspired above the surface o
our domain. "Whosoever sheddetl
man's blood, by man shall his bloot
also be she'd" is the immutable cree,
of the nation, and fidelity to this creet
will tend to lesson crime Throughout
the capital and the remotest partd
the Union.

THE voluntary contributions . now
being levied by highway robber Hubbell
mean one of two things. Either they
are to be used in those states where so
little interest is manifested in elections
that legitimate party expenses would
otherwise remain unpaid, or they are to
be used for the purpose Of silencing the
voice of the people by debauching elec-
tions. The first supposition is forbidden
by the enormous figures the assessments
will reach, and by the fact that candi

inevitable that the assessments are to he

CHARLES lNGERsULL DEAD.
Some Incidents In tho Life OF the Law
and Politician.

Some Incidents IN tho Life of the Lawyer
and Politician.
Charles Ingersoll, word of whose death
and burial at sea was received ON Friday,
was for 40 years one of Philadelphia 8
ablest and most prominent lawyers. He
was native Of that city, being born in
the house sos Walnut street. Mr.. Inger-
soil studied law in the Office of his uncle,
Joseph II. Ingersoll, with whom he was a
great favorite and who left him half of his
fortune. At quito an early age he took an
active part in politics as q speaker and
writer. He was a staunch Democrat, and
labored earnestly for the good of his party.
One day il 1862, when the war feeling was
at it's height, his brother Edward, who
lived in Germantown, was coming to the
city on train when he made a remark to
friend who was with him which excited
the ire of a young rough who was in the
car. At Eighth and Green streets this man
rushed up to Mr.. Ingersoll and shouting
that he had heard what he said in the train
attempted to strike him with . cane. MIR.
IngersOll, although over sixty years old,
defended himself and soon proved too
much for his assailant. During the dis
turbancc an officer arrived and arrested
Mr.. Ingersoll. The prisoner was taken to
Thirteenth and Spring GarGen streets anu
locked up. His brother Charles, hearing
of the matter drove to the station house
in carriage. When near Thirteenth, on
Spring Garden street, he was recognized
and attacked by party of roughs. Tho
old man defended himself as vigorously as
possible, but was soon caught on each
side by some of his assailants, who h eld
him while another belabored him over the
head. from the rear, with q blackjack.
MIR. Ingersoll was finally rescued in an in
sensible condition, and after weeks of suf-
fering he recovered. His friends found
out all who were engaged in the affair and
had proof enough to convict them all, but
Mr.. IngersOll would not allow the case to
go into court. At this time he was about
sixty years old aud was preparing to with
draw from politics. When young he had
tho leading men of the city for his clients,
and among others Stephen Girard.
