The LM«Z Fire Insurance Company has retired from the business and transferred all its risks to the Citizens' Fire Insurarce (Jompany. The JLeoox was a small company, organized in 1853. Its losses last year were heavy, but it retires from business in good shape.

The banking and currency committee of the house has agreed to report favorably a bill providing for the extention of the national bank charters twenty years. Buckner has a bill providing for the substitution oi treasury notes for national bank circulation, and until he has a hearing no report will be made, although its pature has been determined.

Congressman Browne, of this atate, has introduced a bill providing for the reissue of the fractional currency to the extent of $10,000,000, of the denominations of five, ten, twenty-five and fifty cents. It is not proposed to increase the volume of currency, but is to be interchangeable for money in the treasury, and to be legal tender in gums'of five dollars.

Col. M. D. Ball, a former collector at Sitka, ifBtill in Washington prosecuting his elaim to a seat in congress as delegate for Alaska. Of course his claim will not be allowed, although it is thought Alaska will be granted a territorial form of government, after which Col. Ball will be admitted to Congress, provided he receives the requisite number of votes at a regular election.

"'General Grant thoaght of stopping over in Washington two or three weeks, on his way down to Florida, but has changed his mind. Cause—office seekers. Every friend of his, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, seems imbued with th« idea that he is running the administration, and each one wants to Becure his influence with Mr Arthur. Thia would be a good lime for Grant to retire from politics. It would benefit hiuaself, and would materially assist the administration.

Prohibition Maine also abolished the death penalty, and is now sorry that it did it. The attorney general advocates a return to it. During 1881 there were more convictions for murder in the first degree thin for the three years preceding the abolition of the death penalty, and almost as many aa during the three year* following. As no whisky is manufactured, sold, oc drank in the atate, thia great increase of crime cannot be attributed to drunkenness nor can it be successfully argued by the friends ef prohibition that c.he success of their movement has decreased the higher grade of crime.

Dr. Gcarge 11. Lamson, who hsa been indicted in London, England, for murder, is the son of an American minister at •Rome. He baa an bonorabl* recutd of service in the French ambulance corps and Servian army, and is also a member of the leading medical organisation of Great Britain. Recently he became short of money and triad to borrow some oJ his landlord, and to get cashed a check at a bank where he had no account, failing in which he visited his half brother, Percy Malcolm John, a student at Wimbledon.

C0KTI56EXT FT3B 1NTE$"PUATI05. jBV(*tigatkTi (f thedl'-buiniements «nt!*inRant fund of the trewory de^utoteot )V still progreasiag, bqtas the committee hold* its meeting with closed door the re*uU cannot b» sCCaiitely aacfrtaiiJBd. Ooe thins is certain, however, and that ia that Senator Sherman will -coma out all rig'ji. Ooa of the Washington evening papers which has never hean friendly to Mr. Sherman, said on Thursday: "The sub committee of tbe vesate appropriations committee investigating diabursment of the contingent fond of the several executive' .depart' •dents, and particularly of the treasury department, was in session again to-day. This investigation was instigated by a lew sore-heads and disappointed place-hunters for a purpose and object other than honest motive?, and will fail of its objects. It may be as well to state now as at some future time that the only good that will result from this investigation will be the enabling of the appropriatioqa committeea to guard ia the future by proper legislation in the appropriation of large sums of money for the contingent expenses of the several departments, against a like occurrence to one which brought ont the present investigation. Up to the present time there is not a line of testimony which implicates ex-Secretary Sherman with any of the alleged irregularities in the expenditures of the treasury department of the government. It has beea_ intimated lliat.' Mr.

Sherman had used wrongfully the. fund appropriated for the detection of fraud against the customs. There is annually appropriated $100,000 for this purpose, bat there was not need over $30,000 of this fund during any one -year of Mr. Sherman's term of office as pecretary of the treasury. The committee hare had all the books and papers connected with the expenditure of the fund beforo them, and not one dollar of it can be traced to Mr. Sherman or any one who was working in his interest during the contest for the presidential nomination. The committee have examined every voucher connected with the expenditure of money out cf„ihat fund,, amL.^ound them straight. ,n-

There is another fund that it has been intimated he paid men out of to work up delegations for him in some of the south* ern Rtates, and that is the fund appropriated to detect frauds on the internal revenue. The committee has examined into all the fects in connection with the expenditure of this fund, and found it all straight, and not a dollar could bettraced to the ex-seoretary. It has also been intimated that the report of the contingent fund for the last year, and now in the hand? of Speaker Keifer, was being held by him for a purpose. There is nothing in that, because lie committee called on the department for a like report and have it new, and have had for several days.

It may be that many wrongs were perpetrated in the expenditure of the contingent fund of the treasury during Mr. Sherman's term of effice, but he sustains about ihe same relation to them that an editor of a daily paper does to the matter that often gets inti the paper, and while he is technically responsible, he can not be said to be morally so. In the end the committee will report that Mr. Sherman is not responsible."

A KENTUCKY BOW.

The Kentucky democrats held their state convention in Frankfort on Wednesday last. The candidates for the nomination for clerk of the supreme court, were Col. Wolford, a gentleman, who, through his gallant services in defense of the Union, won for himself the name of the Marion of the Union cause, and Captain Tom Henry, a man whose sole qualification ia that he was a captain in the Confederate army. The convention rejected the Union soldier and accepted the one who served on the other side. During the war Kentucky had many loyal sons who did good service in defense of their country, and who have eince that time been ardent democrats. That one of their number should be rejected in favor of a Confederate is not at all pleasing to them, and they are going lo display their displeasure in a manner which will have a damaging effect on the democracy of the slate. Col. J. H. McHenry, a prominent Union officer, delegate to the late state convention, and brother of ex-Congtessman H. D. McHenry, prominently named as Tilden's postmaster general, has published a card, in which he repudiates that convention because cf the inoult oflered by it to Union democrats by rejecting Col. Walford and nominating an ex-Confederate. He calls upon all Unicn democrats to come out and organize and nominate their own candidates for clerk of the court of appeals and for all ccunty officers. This is the first break in the bourbon ranks in Kentucky, and es it is led by one of the leading lawyers of the state, who is an able and popular man, and who has acted with the democrats since the war, there is trouble ahead for Kentucky bourbonism.

Ia the case of Matthew Gottfried v?. the Creeceot Brewing Company, of Aurora, in the United States court, in Indianapolis, Judge Gresham has rendered a decision which will be of interest to brewers. The plaintiff asked for aa injunction against the defendants using a patent owtied by him. The so-called patent ia a process for preparing the inside of casks for receiving pitch by means of a hot air blast The court refused to grant the injunction on the ground that the plaintiff simply proposes to apply an old and well known cantrivanc* for accomplishing useful results to a new purpose, there being nothing to support the claim for a patentable invention ^r process.

Secretary of State Hawn has evidently determined that grave yard insurance companies shall not secure a foothold in this state if he can prevent it. The Indiana Aid and Benefit Association of Coesae, Whitley county, which has no stockholders, and proposes to insure people from the ages oi twenty to eighty-five en the assessment plan, sent to him its articles of association to be filled, but which were promptly returned with the information that it conld not be done,

Under the old law coni hot ineritouous claims were filed, and the work of the pension office went oa smoothly and "expeditiously.

Senator Logan now haB a bill before congress which is an attempt'to reform this etil It reinstates the otd law and repeals the present oe'e, which has no provision for the punishment of any one found guilty of taking an illegal fee. The Logan bill contains several penalties against fraud or attempt at fraud, and is clearly in the interest bf the soldier rfnd pensioner.

Nearer the lagoon on either side of the canal is bare, and the dying seaweeds and the banks off mud are warmed to rich browns in the sunset. As the sun falls faster and faster to thehorizon the water changes from gray to gold, from gold to orange, from orange to the deepest crimson of the pomegranate's core. There is fl^sh as of fire on the windows of Venice,'- that lies ahead, a flush of orange and rose upon its walls. Then in a second the sun is gone. There is a brief space of doubtful light while day hangs trembling in the balance.

a California correspond

ent. It happened near Santa Barbara, in 1872. The country was just beginning to attract settlers, and among the immigrants was a yo- man, bent as were hundreds, on making his fortune. Ho put up at a saloon, .whose inhuman landlord forced him to drink until he was too frank to know what he was about.

The landlord then carried him miles away to an old cabin located on publid land, which he (tho landlord) wished to pre-empt by actual occupation. He left the young man there alone, to hold tho land against all new-comers. By this service ho Was to pay for his board and' the whisky he had been forced, to driift.

Shortly after the landlord left him, the young man was attacked by that terrible mania, delirium tremens Raving, he wandered far from the hut, and for three dafs went about the country.' When found he Was almost dead. Tne ravens had eaten but his eyes, but there was still life enough in the poor fellow to whisper a last message for his mother. "Write to my mother," he said to the man who found him "tell her I died, but, for Heaven's sake, don't tell her where or how I died!"

Is there no woe for the man who put the bottle to that youth's lips.,

This caorning Sant C. Davis resumed his argtiment on the motion for a new trial in the Gibson case.

The evidence of Rawlinso* and Murphy as to ..the Ume that Gibson visited the saloon was gone over again Rawlinson and Murphy swore that they saw Gibson in Hall'ssuoon at five o'clock. Seventeen .persons swear that at that time he was 6 miles north of the city, just about to startfer home. It must have taken them at least half an hour to come lo the city. His wife swears to another half hour spent at home. So on the loast calculation itf.was six o'clock before he star{£d eut $ojay his grocery and other bills. Wilson met Gibson at the corner of 5th and Lafayette, between- half-past six and seven. Wilson aud Gibson then went to Conways saloon and had a drink. A little after seven, Stewart met him at th8Cinctfiflatt House. The prosecution tried to prove that he now went and armed himself for tho purpose of killing Hall, a matf he didn't know and never had any trouble with

Gibson and Stewart loafed around town for nearly an hour, as is proved by Stewart and Gibson's testimony, with that of young Jveys. It was now nearly 8 o'clock and Gibson starts around to Berkshire's barber 1 shop to get shaved, and Gregg sweflrs that he met him at the corner of Fourth and Main. Gibson passes the saloon but does not go io. He sees that the .barber shop is full, and starts for Ehrenhardt's saloon, passing Hall's saloon again. In Ehrenhardt's he mot Watson and Coaiielly. If Gibson had had a quarrel with Hall and was premeditating murder would not Watson and Connelly have noticed it After sitting in Ehrenhardt's for a few minutes Connelly and Gibson went to Hall's saloon aud got a drink. If the quarrel had occurred then

Mr. Davis reviewed the evidence in regard to the killing, in an exhaustive argument tending to prove the defence's theory of killing in self-defense.

The points brought out were materially the same as-tbo ones brought up during the trial last October.

When Sant. Davis sits down ona man he sits heavy, and some of the witnesses for the prosecution would agree with this statement, if they hud hcara the argument this morning.

Before Reed had been speaking half an hour the prisoner began to comment and contradict. Contrasting the mercy of the Savionr towards those afflicted with devils insane, with the demands of the prosecution in this.cisr, Reed said: "They say hang him."

Guiteau shouted, "And the American people say 'Let him go.' The American people are on my Bide, Reed now go on with your speech."

Soon after the speaker bad occasion to allude to the evidence of J. W. Guitean, when the prisoner again interrupted, and called (disparagingly): "Well, he ain't my referenee. I've got better men than he i.? for my reference."

Rsed commented upon the incident related by several witnesses when Guitaaa struck isis father at the supper table, and Guiteau called out, vehemently: "That wasn't true. I never struck him, never intended to s!ck" 'ij,. 1 don't fight any one. I am a

t.v.

jan. If I don't

like any one 1 tell them so, and tell them to get ont of the way, and that settles them." "This act," continued the speaker, "was the first indication of bis insanity. He denies it probably he don't remember it."

Guiteau—[anceringly]—That is owing to my poor, weak mind and disordered intellect..

Reed continued, "Dividge condescended to read yesterday a portion of the evidence in rel»tion to thia incident to show, as he claimed, the depravity of the prisoner, and Judge Porter kindly suggested to hiiii that Guiteau struck his father in tho back. The record says on the neck or shoulder."

Davidge—[lau«hiogly]—Don't go back on the witness, Reed. "J am reading from the record, sir. It says-"

Guiteau—[with an air of satisfaction at his superior discernment]—Why, that wes intended for a puo, Reed, bat yon don't seem to see it. I don't know as that should be wondered at, for it would require a microscope for an ordinary mortal to see it.

Reed continued: "It does not- reqnire an expert to pronounce the prisoner insane. You have seen him day after day sbufiltng in before you. You have seen that strange, unnatural look of the eyes, and it requires the opinion of no expert to convince you that this is not the appearance of a sane man." Continuing in this strain, the speaker saich "In my opinion, if this poor creature is sent to the aeylum he will be a drivelling idiot within six months."

Guitesu bad been qnietly listening, with his elbows npon the rail of the dock and his chin npon his hands, his back being turned to the aadience and his attention apparently fixed upon something in the street. Thiaprediction aroused him intensely, burning around, he looked over in the direction of the speaker snd enjoyed a quiet langh for some seconds. "These experts," said the speaker, "do not swear to fact, for none bat the Deity can know what there is in the brain of a man. Tbey swear only to opinion, and yon have a notable instanee of how far from the facts the opinions ot the moat learned doctors may. lead. In the sad case^of the latex President, we had bulletins every day ffriBf his mxHtioll we had the announcement that the probe

had Beta inserted tvelve iofchea into tbe wbiind, and yet l&e wound really led ia eiabtly the opposite direction. I say it woold be a shame t* send a man to th« gallows upon the opinion of tbe doctors." Alluding to tbe strictures of counsel yesterday npon the coarse of certain members of Guiteau's family in sticking to the prisoner when they should have cast him off as a wretch. Reed ssid: "It ia in evidence that six years ago Mra. 8coville believed her brother a mental Wreck «n insane man—and should she desert him now thst he is on trial for his life die would be unworthy the name of sister." Referring to the difficulty experienced by the defenoe io securing witnesnes, Col. Reed said: "You can never know, gentlemen, how hard it has been to get people to come here and tell what they know, They would lather listen to th*crr 'crucify his,' than come here and tell what they know to save this poor man from the gallows and the Government from the disgrace of ezecsting an insane man."

Guiteau interrupted in loud tones: "The Government doesn't want me to be convietcd, and I ain't going to be, probably."

The evidence of Brooks, the Chief of the Treasury Detectives, who visited tbe prisoner in the night, and whose evidence the prosecution tried so bard to suppress, as thejr did the notes of Bailey, the evidence of Detective McElfresh, and, in sheet, all evidence that might in any way aid the prisoner, Reed claimed, came like a God-send. Reed went, on at some length with argument to demonstrate the insanity of the prisoner. His father was, he mamtsined, insane on religious_subjects, and foraed him into that vestibule of hell, the Oneida Community. Before that he had led a pure life, and his father had convinced him that he would go to hell unless he became a member 01 the Oneida Community, and he went there to save his soul.

Guitean abruptly said: "When I got there I got into hell, and did not get ont for six years."

During a pause in tbe argument the prisoner broke out: "I am going to have my speech published in all tbe papers of America. Then I am going to ask yonr Honor to read it, and then I will discuss

Connelly would have seen it. But he didn't. The evidence ot tho state itself places Paddy Burk in the Baloon fifteen minutes before it was closed, and Burk stood talking with Gibson for the f'fteen minutes next after the saloon was closed. Now wo have kept Gibson in sight untfl fifteen minutes after the closing of Hall's saloon. The only counter evidence we have to contend with is that of Rawlinson, Murphy and Haman is a self-con* victed liar, and the evidence is not worth anything. The character of Rawlinson and Murphy-is too well understood to be discussed. What are their oaths worth against those of its seventeen other witnessess who swear that Gibson was not there. If Haman, Rawlinson and Murphy knew any thing of it why did they not appear before the court in the examination for the giving of bail What confidence can be put in the evidence of a man who knows the facts in a murder case, and stands by and docs not open his mouth. The prosecution asks the court to sentence Gibson on the evidence of this trinity of liars. There could have been none. The entire theoiy that Gibson premeditated murder is hollow.

the question as to whether I shall deliver it to tbe jury. Then I think your Honor will allo^me to deliver it."

In conclusion, Reed said: "Gentlemen of the jury, you all said when yen were sworn that you would be governed by the evidence, and stand up to it without regald to the effect it might have upon you and your, business. I adjure you to keep that oath. Falter not in the performance of a duty which shall save yon and this fair land from eternal digrace. I assert that the conviction of this man to the gallows, and his execution, would be an infamy beyond description, an hidelible stain on American jurisprudence and American juries. Think of the scene, if you condemn him to the gal lows. Though not present in body to see the sight, yon cannot bat be there in mind. If such a day shall ever come (and I do not believe it ever can come nnder this evidence), think of this man, brought out from his oell, with the same pale face and same weary, wandering eyes, the officers of the law gathering around him, pinioning him, binding him with cords, so that his lhas. cles stand out, covering him with a black hood, shutting out the light of dsy from him and leading him to the scaffold.

The prisoner—I would rather go that way thsn be smashed up in the railroad cars as some poor fellows were last night.

Reed—[continuing]—Think of him, a lunatic, condemned to the galolwilanatic, whom the Saviour, if he were on earth, would heal. The picture is not overdrawn. I am very much obliged to you for your attention. I only ask you pray do that which shall not in after years bring the blush of shame to your eheeks.

The prisoner—Reed is a good fellow, but I would not give a cent a bushel for his rubbish. If I conld only have a talk with that jury, I would give them the right theory.

The court then adjourned. Reed's argument was listened to with close attention and evident interest from the beginning to the close. Mrs. Scoville sat all dsy in a mournful attitude, with her hand covering her face most of the time, to conceal her tears, while her little daughter stood by her side, and by her carcases sought to win her from her grief.

In the Chamber of Deputies, yesterday, Gambetta ascended the tribune and read his bill for the revision of the Constitution. The principal points of the bill are as follows: Election cf life Senators by both Chambers, votiog separately, instead of by the Senate alone instead of Senatorial delegates being chosen by the Commune.-', one to ba elected by each 500 electors the principle of scrutin de liste to he inscribed in tbe Constitution, the details to be subsequently settled by an ordinary bill the Senate to be deprived of the power of restoring items stricken .?om the budget by the Chamber of Deputies. The final clause of the bill provides for the diacsntinuaaos of public prayers at the opening of tbe Legislature. The preamble 10 Gambia's bill says France has manifested by the recent elections a desire lor a wise and moderate revision of the Constitution. The principle of the ecrutin de liste is a corrollary universal suffrage, and will secure sincerity in voting and independence of action to those elected. It, therefore, becomes necessary to settle this question promptly. Matters of detail and application are reserved for the end of the present legislative term. At this announcement the reading of the bill was interrupted by various marks of approval and disapproval. Gambetta added: We shall prove to you in the diiscustions in the bureaux, that' a vital interest is at stake. We will not ask urgency. You can decide on that after the preliminary consideration of the bill.
