Croker, she has not come up to his old
standpoint He has lost his old tune of
self-exaltation and arrogance" Guiteaus
appetite, which failed him after the verdict,
is gradually returning. A guard is placed
over him all the time now, as much for the
purpose Of diyerting the prisoners mind by
giving him society as to secure his pro-
lection. He is quite talkative, but does
not converse about his case. Il do not be-
lieve," said Warden Croker, that if he
was allowed TO see the reporters he would
talk about his CASE" Guiteau, IN his talk
with the Jail officers, represents himself as
having little hope in Scoville's motisn for
a new trial, but having strong faith in the
court in banc, which he believes will re-
verge the result Of the trial on the question
of jurisdiction. Warden Croker says that
despite Guiteaus boastful utterances that
he slept we'll the night after the verdict was
rendered, he did not sleep at all.

mrs. Lincoln Il iiOn0maniac.

Amember of the family of Mrs. Lincoln,
the widow of the ex-president, is in Wash
ington, and in speaking of the recent act of
congress donating to Mrs. Lincoln $15, 900
and an additional pension, he said it was
unnecessary, and on being asked why, he
said:
Mrs. Lincoln has $55, 900 invested in
IL per cent. government bonds. In
addition to that she had before a pension of
50, 600 a year. This was ample for all her
expenses. The fact is her mind is COM
pletelY wrecked and she is insane on the
question of poverty. She has been fearful
for years that she would come to want
Her son has not favored her desire for an
additional pension from CONGRESS-, and she
has entertained hard feelings towards him.
| know when she got her original pension
of 5000 he used every effort with congress
to defeat the measure, knowing it was not
necessary. This very much incensed Mrs.
Lincoln, who was possessed of the idea that
she was in great danger of coming to want
This idea which has gone out that she
needed anything has emanated from her
own mind, owing to this fact of her insanity
on this subject, Ind had no reasonable
foundation.

A Dearth of Dramatic Debutantes.

This season, writes a New York cores
pendent, has been highly deficient in de-
butantes. Not, however, because there are
no new candidates for dramatic honors; but
simply on account of the expense attend
ing such an effort It will cost any ambl-
tious beginner from $4,000 to So, 900 to
make first appearance, and it is said that
in the case of Friedrich Paulding the above
figures were exceeded to a large degree.
There is large number Of ladies present
making efforts to obtain an appearance, and
the managers are much annoyed by such
applications. They do not, however. be-
long to that class commonly termed
wealthy" and hence find the doors closed
against them. A theatrical manager, while
referring to this subject, spoke as follows:
"The number of amateur actresses who
want to go on the stage professionally is
enormous. Many belong to respectable
families, and it is this class that so often
pays literally for debut. Sometimes o
tricky dramatic agent will get up company
purposely to play fortnight. and after OBJ
tanning 81, 600 or more from the candidate
they let the thing drop, and she goes home
with new but costly lesson. A number
of amateurs are now playing gratutiously,
merely for the benefit of practice, and they
find their own costly dresses. In one the
alter at least half the actresses are of this
class, and all belong to good families. One
woman of wealth, and who believes that
she possesses histrionic genius, has ex-
expended SIS, ZOO in bringing herself be-
fore the public, and yet after all has failed
to win position.

Breaking OF the New York Legislative
Deadlock.

DeHu.LOCks
The New York Herald OF the Sd has the
following from their special correspondent
at Albany: The surrender Of Tammany,
which resulted this morning in the election
of the. caucus nominee for speaker, was
undoubtedly the result Of yesterdays con-
ference with Messrs. Thurber, James aud
their anti monopoly associates, who practical
ly endorsed Mr.. Patterson in every way a
fit person for speaker of the assembly.
Tammauy has never been able to frame an
objection to him and maintained the dead
lock in the assembly only as a corollary to
its action in the senate and with the hope
of finally effecting compliance with all its
demands; but the Tammany representatives
have based their refusal to vote for the
caucus candidate solely on the ground that
they were inimical to the anti monopoly in
terest. The action of the representative
men Of the anti monopoly party in indors-
ing Mr.. Patterson left Tammany no show
but to abandon that excuse so far as he was
concerned, no other presenting itself, OF to
yield as gracefully as possible. There was
practically no alternative, and after re main
ing in conference until late hour this
morning meanwhile having communicated
with Messrs. Spinola and Kearney, decided
to direct the representatives in the ASSEMBLY
to vote for the caucus nominees, and they
Obeyed.

Paintinr Barns,

W; F. Brown, in the Ohio Farmer, in an
arucle on the painting of buildings. says
mere are plenty OF barns in his neighborhood
snat present respectable appearance that
nave been built from forty to fifty years
ana nave never been painted, and it is his
judgment, from experience in keeping his
aweilng house painted, that if these barns
n l, oeen kept painted so as to Look we'll,
the cost would have been three or four
!, greater than to newly weatherboard
them. To look well, building would need
coat of paint about once in five years.
and If neglected it looks worse than if not
painted at all. If called upon to decide the
question to paint or not - paint, as rule,
he would cay not.

6uiteau COMPOUNDED by Scrinture.

Guiteau, while INDUCING in what Mr..
Walt Whitman calls 4barbaric yawp, has
been specially fond of alluding to the Bible
as an authority for assassination, and ofAe-
peating his twaddle about being inspired
by the deity" He must have been edited
when Mr.. Davidge, in the course of his
speech, set forth the scriptural aspect of
the case by reading these lines from the
epistle of James: Let no man say when
he is tempted, I am tempted of God, for
tempteth He any man, but every man ia
tempted when he is drawn away of his own
lust and enticed thereby. When lust hath
conceived it bringeth forth sin, and sin.
when it is finished. bringeth forth death. /"
