IV THE HOBXOX CASK. V"-^ The indications now are that the first contested election czce to be reported to the house cf representatives for action will be that of Campbell ve. Cannon. It will be remembered that Governor Murray, of Utah, refused to give Cannon certificate ot election on the ground that he is not a citizen of the United States.

Cannon received 18,000 voles to 1,300 for Campbell. Most of the votes cast for the Mormon were by women. The com' mittee on elections is going to report in favor of Cannon*- In speaking on the subject recently a prominent republican member eaid: "So far ss I can see, after a careful investigation of the case, the committee cannot do otherwise than report in favor of seating Cannon. He received a very large majority of tbe votes cast. It is true that woman have the right of suffrage in Utah, but I don't eee that congress can go into that question. As to the charge that Cannon is not a citizen of the United States, a previous congress thoroughly investigated that snbject and reported that he was duly naturalised and is a citizen. It is somewhat singular that the law of Washington, Idaho and Montana Territories provides that no person shall be elected a delegate to congress from those territories who is not a citizen of tbe United States, bat there is no such provision in the laws relating to Utah. Cannon is a polygamisf he avows tbe fact, and admits that he is daily violating the'law of the land by having four wives, but the fact that the man is a bigamist forma no cocatitulional or legal disqualification for him to sit in congress as a representative or delegate. The house is the sole judge of the election and qualification of its own fhembers. The action of Governor Murray in giving Campbell the certificate, unusual as it was in form, seems entirely unwarranted. It is for the house to determine, however, whether it is prejadical to the dignity and order of the body to admit to a ssat on the floor a man who avows he is living ins defiance of tbe law of the land. The committee can only report the fact that Cannon was elccted, is not disqualified from holding his eeat, and the house must Fettle the other incidental questions. To violate the law forbidding adultery is as much a crime as the violation of the law forbidding bigamy. Mr. Cannon has been a delegate for eight years, during which time be has violated the set of 1862 prohibiting polygamy, aaa.no question has been raised a3 to his qualifications as a delegate."

Cannon admits that he ia following a course of life Contrary to the law of the land, but insists that he is cot doing it in a spirit of dtfiance tfeat the recent decision of the supreme court has caused him to desist from advocating polygamous marriage that he defends his creed when called upon to do so because he believes it to be a divine institution, and that he preferred to follow the course pursued by him became any other would have involved innccent women. This does not difgui8a the fact that be is living in Washington in open and notorious Adultery in defiance of the law of the land. His talk about divine institutions is non* sense, and is on a par with Guiteaa's assertions that the Deity is his partner.

There is a law against bigamy, and that it should be enforced against a poor devil, while his more favored fellow-mor-tal, who commits the same offense under the guise of religion, is allowed to hold a seat in congress, is a disgrace to our boasted civilization. Wives of ordinary bigamists who are convict* ed of their crime suffer innocently. They supposed they were marrying single men, but the law throws no shield, around them. Mormon women have walked into their condition with eyes wide open, and there is no excuse for them. The law discriminates between lust and religion, and it should be enforced without discrimination. ..

Bev. Enoch Pond, D. D, president of Bangor theological seminary, died at Bangor, Maine, on Sunday, oged 91 He was born at Wrentham, Massachusetts, July 29,1791. He graduated at Brown university in 1813, studied theology and was licensed to preach in June, 1814, and he was ordained pastor of the Congregational church in Ward (now Auburn),

Massachusetts, March 1, 1815. In 1828 he became the conductor of the Spirit of the Pilgrims, an orthodox monthly publication just established in Boston, which bore an important part in what is knonw as the "great Unitarian controversy." In 1832 he became professor of systematio theology in the seminary at Bangor, Maine, and in 1856 became its president. Numerous lectures by him have been published in book form.

Senator Kellogg's resolution calling for the names of all the employes in the treasury department, together with their political pedigree, ia likely to canse trouble. It is well-known that several states have been unfairly dealt with in distributing ths spoilt that many northern voters are charged to southern states, and that many who were not old enough to have been soldiers during the war are now on duty and drawing their pay regularly as ex-soldiers. It is probable an effort will be made to have the report of the secretary of the treasury referred to the secretary of war, with instructions to report the war record of clerks who are alleged to have served in the Union army.

The "foot pad" has inaognrated a reign of terror in Indianapolis which throws in the shade the most dariog exploits of Dick Turpin. Within a week these gentry have killed one man, dangerously hurt many others, while a dozen more are nursing bruised beads, from the blows of the "sand bag." The shot-gun policy would be a very effective argument against these marauders, or a vigilance committee might deal with them to advantage..

The rumor is again current tbat Secretary Folger will succeed Justice Hunt on the supreme bench, and that~ex-8ena-tor Conkling'will name the new secretary of the treasury. It is intimated that if the proposed change is de ex-Senator Piatt will come to the front once mote. There has been so much talk of late of Mr. Folger going on the supreme bench that people are begining to believe it

Some people are inclined to find fault with the Express for the course which it pursued in giving a plain statement of the existwee of smallpox in the dty laai Snaday -Aoming. It was done under the impression that it ia modi better the facte should be known than that oar citizens should be kept in a state of painfol anxiety by listening to all sorts of unfoucd^d rumors which are sure to be set afloat by those who delight in the sensational and we are gled to know that it has had the efftct of stirring up the citizens who have been tardy in adopting preventive measures. We believe that wherever aod whenever a case is known to exist it should be pointed oat, in order that all may be warned to guard sgainet it. Tbe law requires that all houses in which it appears" shall be marked with a red flag, and it can certainly harm no one to name such houses. As stated above, we believe a plain statement of a fact is preferable to all sorts ot vagne rumors, and whenever a case of smallpox is known to exist the Express will name it Fortunately there has been but one, case here up to the present

He served in the Mexican war and waa wounded at Cbapultepec, and was brevetted lieutenant colonel in 1848, and became lieutenant colonel of the Ninth infantry in 1855.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.—For every seat in the court room this morning there were at least ten clamoring applicants besieging every avenue'of approach. The members of the press, counsel and court officers found the greatest difficulty in torcing their way through the immense throngs thaf blocked up every passage way. Even holders of special tickets were in many instances unable to get near enough to the policemen and bailiffs to aho them. When the doors closed one thousand people were left outside. As toon as court opened Guiteau made the following announcement: "I spent yesterday in examining my mail. I had several hundred letters, many of thorn from ladies, and some were very tender. I desire to express my thanks to the ladies for these kind and tender letters. One letter suggests that General Arthur give me a Cabinet, office now. I want to say I would not take any office from President Arthur and under the circumstances I don't think it would be proper that I should accept one. Now in regam to Judge Porter I want to say as he is to have the closing of the case, ii he attempts to mislead the court or jury I and my counsel will stop him. He came into this case under a misapprehension on the part of General Arthur, otherwise he would not be inthe case. He don't properly represent the Government, be only represents himself."

Judge Porter entered the court room shortly before the prisoner had delivered himself Of this warning. After a moment's delay he stepped to the open space before tbe jury and in tones which betrayed clearly his weakened condition, began tbe closing argument. Said Jadge Porter, "If it please your Honor and gentlemen of the jury, in,my own infirmity, for I share your fatigue, I proceed as best I can to discharge my duty. The nature of this duty is such that I should feel that I were almost accessory after the fact if I should fail to speak such words I can, to aid you in reaching a proper conclusion.

rfhus

far tho trial has practically

been conducted by the prisoner and Scoville. Every one has been denounced at their will and even now I am informed I will be interrupted by them both." Judge Porter briefly recited the scenes of disorder, the abuse and slaader which everyone upon tbe case, bad fortwo months been subjected, "and yet' he said,'of tiie three speeches which have been made by the defense I will do the prisoner the justice to say that his was tho least objectable." After sketching .the circumstances leading up to the crime and painting with fervid language the damning wickedness ol its execution, Judge Porter turned his attention to the prisoner and proceeded to depict his character in the following terms: "A beggar, & hypocrite, a robber and as windier 4 lawyer who never won a cause. No court, no jury, failed to. see in him the dishonest rogue, and such men can not win causes. He has left his trail of infamy in a hundred directions. The man who, as a lawyer, had such notions of morality that when he had taken debts to collect and collected them by dogging the debtor, he held them against his client a man who was capable of blasting the name of the woman with whom he had Blept for years and still recognized as his wife a man who, when he tired ot this woman, pretending to be a Christian and a believer of tbe Bible, looked in the book and read, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," and then went out and deliberately committed adultery with a street walker a man who pushed himself into the fellowship of Christian associations as a follower of the Savior when fresh from six years of fornication in the Oneida Community—"

Guiteau,—' That lie ought to choke you." As Judge Porter with resitless torrents of denunciations and invective, the prisoner occasonaJly called out, "That's a lie "That's absolutely folse," or "That's not so."

At Little Rock, on Sunday* a colored prostitute, knife in hand, chased a negro man around a billiard table until he struck her on the bead with a billiard cue, when she rushed upon him and Blabbed him to the heart. She was jailed.

The total clearings at twenty-four of the leading clearing houses in the country for the week ended Jan. 21st were $1,803,342,091 outside New York, $306,522,524, a marked decrease as compared with the corresponding week last year, and a small increase over the week ended Jan. 14th this year. Leaving out New York the figures indicate that the general trade of the country is in good and improving condition. *.

Public justice demanded that the assassin should never leave the dock save in the shackles of a sentenced felon. He who spared no one should not be spared. He spared not the good Garfield he spare ed not the loving wife who had once saved her husband's life he spared not the little mother upon whoso lips had rested on the 4th of March last tho kissing lips which had just before rested on the book of God. This vile wretch,had he been free and unshackled,liad he thcugt the insanity plea would save him, had he had a "bull dog" in his hand, would have shot a bullet through Judge Cox when he refused to permit him to speak would have put a bullet through Davidge when he was denouncing him as a murderer. He wanted to know whether on the day when juror Hobbs lost his beloved wife, when his home was darkened with the shadow of death, he would not, had it served his purpose, have shot Hobbs then and there, not from ill will to him, but from good will to himself. Had he not on one occasion threatened one of the jury with "removal" by that God whom be claimed as a partner?

Passing ia review principal events of prisoner's life, Judge Porter showed up in all its hideous deformity the infamous bent of his nature. Alludingto his disute with his brother, John W. Guiteau,

Boston, when he struck the latter in the face, Jadire Porter said this was tbe first and last time this coward ever struck any blow in the face. His coward hand always struck from behind. After showing who and what was the murderer, Judge Porter next described his victim, paying a glowing tribute to the character aod services of the lamented President, and pronouncing a most touching eulogy as it were upon his memory. The claims of the prisoner to be a praying men were considered and the hollow mockcrj*of the claim shown. Guiteau angrily shouted, "1 pray every night and morning and before every meal. If you did the same you would be abetter man. You wouldn't be here looking for blood money." «*The prisoner sayB he prayed for six weeks', continued Judge Porter. "Why, if he bad made up his mind unalterable to murder the President on the 1st of Jane, did he still continue to pray downto the very act of the murder f'

Guiteau—"I prayed to see if the Lord wooldnt let me cn from killing him." "What was he praying for continued Judge Porter. "The man who claimed to have received divine inspiration, himseif prepares bis defense in advance for an act to do which he wss divinely ingpired. Tbt htUcrvr ta ioipiraUoo, ht

Davidge, earnestly objected to the interruption. He believed it but the first of a series of interruptions intendeded to weak the force Of the closing argument. Counsel had no right to interrupt unless the speaker read incorreetly.

Judge Oox—"We cannot have a running discussion and that is just what this will lead to."

Scoville—"I was interrupted 147 times. I have done so but twice. I propose to test this question right herej if the couneel persists in misrepresentations,

Davidge—"Your Honor can at once see the object of this thing, and it is for your Honor to decide whether the argument is to be given in its entirety to the jury or whether it is to be split up in this man ner."

Judge Cox—"You will proceed, Judge Porter." The speaker alter this incident continued by saying, "I can't in this argument even allude to Scoville or Resd, the counsel on the other side. This case looms up 60 immeasureably above them that in making the closing argument I cannot even allude to ihem except as it may be absolutely necessary. The evidence and papers presented here by Gen. Beynoldis,' said Judge Porter, 'and among them the prisoner's address to the American people, are sufficient to stamp him as a cool, calculating, coldblooded murderer. The papers at one time could not be found either in the District Attorney's or Attorney General's offices and neither ot the counsel for the government saw them until a day or two before General Reynolds took the stand, but thank God tbe papers were found and they arc in evidence before you, and before I conclude I think I shall be ablo to show you that not one of you could, upon this evidence, acquit this criminal unless you perjure your souls and assume your share of the responsibility for the murder of the lamented Garfield

Guiteau—"That's all bosh. I'm very glad these papers are here. When tho Attorney-General saw them he wouldn't have anything to do with this case."

Judge Porter then explained at some length the relations of counsel for prosecution to this case, in reply as he said, to the frequent insinuations of the prisoner and his counsel that he (Porter) and his assistants were improperly ln.fluenced by the expectation of a money reward and had entered into a conspiracy to execute the law and convict this prisoner. He said the District Attorney's salary was fixed, and as for his own compensation that was to be determined by the highest law officer of the land ana was not affected by the result of the trial.

The District Attorney's duty was plain, and his salary fixed by law, said Judge Porter. It is Bimply $200 a year and fees in certain cases as prescribed by law.

Guiteau shouted: "His office, I'm told, is worth $7,000 a year, and yet he can't pay his board bills. He spends it all for wine and fancy women."

Speaking of his own Compensation, Judge Porter said that was a matter to be fixed and determined by tbe highest law officer of the Government and whether the prisoner was convicted or acquitted would make make no difference, if his full duty in this responsible charge wss performed. In reply to the broadcast imputation pot npon the Government witnesses, that they were offered special inducements by Corkhill to come here and testify. Judge Porter said: "Not one dollar can Col. Corkhill draw from the treasury except upon proper vouchers, oertified according to law, ana not a single witness haa received one dollar more than their allowance provided by law."

Judge Porter repelled the assumption of counsel for the defense that there wss a man npon the jury who would hang the jury. The prisoner himself had indicated that he rested his safety apon one man.

Guiteau—I rely upon twelve men. The

arguments

of the defense for the

past seven days had all been directed to this one object, to divide tbe jury. Judge Porter addressed himself npon this snbject, with great force of argument and eloquence, directly to the intelligence and conscience of the jury. They must not believe, if any man of them thought to discharge his duty by avoiding his foil duty, and should cause a divided jary, that the United States Government would- any the less press this trial to a conviction. Judge Porter continued: This esse stands, and stands alone npon the single question whether oathe 2nd of Jnly tbe prisoner believed that he was commanded to commit this crime.

Guiteau—That's it, and that's all there is to it. Judge Porter—The prisoner assents, and in my opinion he knew from the first that upon this sole issue his esse must rest. If his counsel had half tbe intelligence of the prisoner they would have seen the same.

Guiteau—Thank yoa, Judge. Bat I don't take much stock in year opinion, any way.

Judge Porter adverted to tbe oonstant interruptions of the prisoner, his false claims of sympathy, and that the press was with bia, snd said in oontradiction "I have yet to see a single American newspaper that has one word to say in Jljg

Scoville vainly strove to get the ear of the Court protesting that Porter was exceeding tbe rnlee of the oonrt by such statements. At Isngth Judge Porter paused, and Scoville demanded that he be allowed to make similar statements in reply. Judge Porter attempted to go on, but Scanlle, reinforced by the clamor of tbe prisoner, succeeded in getting the floor, when, with much excitement, he demanded his rights, and he claimed that hie rights should be respected. He insisted that Jndge Porter had no right to state what tbe newspapers said, or what they did not say, and he desired an ex-

that oouasil had no

and

would himself alter tbe inspired book substitute for it a book of hia own. 1 he did not shoot the President on the first occasion,' said Porter, 'was due to his coward heart. Had he done it on that occasion he would have been torn to pieces and he-knew it. On this occasion the President wss surrounded by bis cabinet and his friends His sm, hot yet strong, but who 'would have beat urged at sueh a time, with God-given strength to defend his father, was also by his side, and the assassin's craven heart failed him and he said, "Not yet, at some other time.'" With graphic picturing Judge Porter related the dodging ot the President's footsteps to the little church the incidents or accidents on each occasion which baffled him. President Garfield's visit to Secretary Blaine's house, dogged by the assassin, was vmdly portrayed. "It was night," said the speaker, "dark as that night when the devil first whispered this crime in the aesasins ear. He lay in hiding {A the alley. Why. with the inspired Command ot God resting upon him to kill the President and with a pressure that would have made him do it if he died the next minute at any time after June 1st why did he not kill him? Because he says it wss too hot and he thought he would do it some other time because this politician thought he could become the ideal of the stalwarts and of the Republican party because he thought he had so carefully laid the foundation for his defense against the crime and for his protection from mob violence that he might [safely commit the act in the licht ofday. This careful man, careful of his own safety, made every provision, even to his conveyance to jail, and When he had seen his victim fall turned and ran. Ran where? Where' could he run?" Scoville, interrupting Judge Porter, said, "I desire to correct the speaker on the evidence. I do not.find a single witness who testified that the prisoner ran after firing."

That

right to object The prisoner had been allowed to state what he had received in the way of letters he had been permitted to read them, to read extracts from the papers and to make all sort of state^nents as to what tbe American people and •:*w»firWere ssying of him. Judge Porter

Wsroisrply contradicting these statements. Judge Cot intimated that the prisoner was noi allowed to do ss charged, but couldn't be restrained from doing so,

Scoville—Well, can't Judge Porter be restrained? The Judge ruled that tbe speaker might contradict assertions of the kind made by the prisoner.

Porter then read from the printed evidence^ several of the more noted examples cf this effort on the part of the prisoner to deceive the jury, after which be desired to be excuned from further Ppeaking for the day,, and court adjourned until tomorrow.

THE AGBICUXTUBAL BUREAU. WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.—The House Committee on Agriculture has commenced the consideration of estimates for the agricultural appropriation bills. The Commissioner asks for $100,000 for collecting and distributing monthly statistical reports. Last year the appropriation was $10,000. There is a strong disposition on tbe part of several members of the committee to increase the appropriation so that the department may immediately inform growers of crops from time to time as to the condition of tbe rame throughout tbe countrv, in order thst farmers may have the benefit of knowledge now monopolised by boards of trade, and that they (the farmers) may jadge for themselves whether or not it would be to their advantage to hold or sell their grain. Chairman Valentine says tbe committee will probably recommend legislation on this subject which will meet with the approval of tbe House. The committee will dispose of the appropriation bill before taking up any other business. Commissioner Loring will to-morrow explain to the committee bis request for ineressed appropriation, and will be interrrogated principally npon the subject of the distribution of the monthly crop reports,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.—During the delivery of^the eulogies on Senator Bumside to-day, the President's private secretary brought to the Capitol a nomination forjtha office of Pablic Printer, but it was taken back to the Executive Mansion unopened. The friends of S. P. Rounds, ol Illinois, express confidence that he is the nominee.

ANOTHEB CABINET BUMOBJ WASHINGTON, January 23.—There is a report in circulation to-day that Secretary Folger is to be appninted to the Supreme Bench immediately upon the retirement of Judge Hunt, and Congressman Crowley, of New York, who ia said to have been President Arthur's choice for the Senatorship when Piatt was elected, will succeed Folger in the Treas-

There is a decided disposition to pass a bill at this session of the Senate to regulate and control the counting of the Electoral vote. Some Democratic Senators favor the passage of Edmunds' bill, on the ground that no better one can be framed. It is thought that the present session is the beet time to take up the subject as the presidential election is three years off, and there are no immediate party interests to subserve. In this connection a Democratic Senator stated to-day that when Morton's bill was befofo tbe Senate in 1875, it was only prevented from going to the House, which would probably have passed it, through the action of Sebator Thurman, who after it had passed the Senate moved a reconsideration, which motion waB allowed to be lost sigh of "Had that bill passed," said the Senator, "Tilden would have been President in 1876. Thurman's motion wss a fatal mistake, and he has realizsd it since."

The Senate Judiciary Committee has agreed upon an anti-polygamy bill, the main features of which are provisions that the fact of living in bigamous relations shall be proof ot polygamy that any person may be challenged as a juryman in a bigamy case who practices or believes in palygamy and debarring all poiygamists from voting, service on juries or holding office.

Campbell, the contestant of Cannon's seat, of Utah, advocates, in a telegram to an anti-polygamy meeting in Chicago, a bill now pending in Congress, creating a Legislative Council for that Territory in place of the present Mormon government

Senator Pugh will shortly introduce a bill making it a penal offense to get np simulated electoral returns from a State, the object of which is to prevent such returns from being forwardtu .for tbe purpose of complicating the count.

The Supreme Court, to-day decided that where a county has paid interest on railway bonds for a term of years without objection it could not eecape liability by suddenly refusing to pay.

Begs leave to call the attention of tbe American people to its mode of business and asks the support of the art-loving public. We shall, as fast aa possible, ring out in this country, in the highest style of artistic work, eveiy famous trt work of the Old World, and at prices which will enable tbe people of moderate means to adorn their home* with the: choicest art works.

Engraving In the World, The engraving of the plates cost upward of $30,000, and no copus from it are sold at a lees price than $30, which, with duties and shipping added, brings the cost to American purchasers to about $40 per copy.

This splendid work is the first of a series of the' prominent art works of Europe, which the AMERICAN ART EXCHANGE will produce in America, simultaneous with their production in the Old World, and st prices which will enable the multitude to purchase.

This first work, "Christ Le*Tincr ths Pratorium." will be used as an introductory advertisement, and a limited number will be furnished

FREE TO ALL APPLICANTS! It is a correct reproduction of the English plate, which sells at $30 per copy, many of which have been purchased by a number of Americans at that price, who subscribed for it through th«r English house. The American editioh will be furnished in the same site and with the same attention to |erfect work as characterizes the $30 copies.

Tbe object of this extraordinary offer is to hring our enterprise into immediate recognition in this country, so that when we announce future works the public will have had an opportunity toj udge of tbe quality and beauty of the .art work produced by the American Art Exchange.

Until tbe first edition is exhausted, we will ship a perfect copy of the engraving, "Christ Leaving the Proetorium," to any applicant. The engraving (which is a very large one) will be put up in a heavy tube, and sent by mail. Tbe only charge will be the cost of tubing and poetage, which will he 10 three-cent postage stamps. It wss at first thought 20 cents would be sufficient for this charge, but from frequent breaking of the tubes in the mail bags it was decided to increase tbe thickness sad strength of the tubes (thus making them heavier) so that they could not_be broken in

except in case of an accident. Tbis necessitated an increase of charges for this pm pose to 30 cents, or 10 three-cent stamps.

On receipt of application we will imediately forward tiiis snperb engraving to any address in the United States, all charges prepaid, when ten three-cent stamps are enclosed in letter to cover postage and tube.

This engraving is only sold by subscription, and the price is £6, or about $30. It is absolutely impossible to secure a copy at a less price, except through this offer. The engraving represents the Savior aB he is having tbe Prntorium, after being condemned to crucifiction. He is descending tbe steps leading from the judgment court. At the foot of the steps stands two burly executioners, in charge of the cress whiob the Savior is 10 beer. On the right are the followers and believers of Christ, with despair in their every look, while the mother of oor Lord is an agonized and fainting attendant. In the rear and on the feft are the judges and scoffers, surrounding Pontius Pilate, who

are looking with fierce complacency on their work. The central figure is that of Christ, as he uncomplainingly descends the steps to take up tbe cross snd bear it to he scene of his crucifixion. S3 Tbe work in this portion of tbe engraving is more perfect and beautifal than we had supposed oould ever be executed. The expressions of the faces, the grouping of the figures' and the careful attention to detail in the drapery and accessories of the .picture, are all carried out in perfection and with consummate skill. There is a very large number of figures in the work, snd all are depicted with life-like faithfulness. It stands today unquestionably The Finest and Host Vtilaahle
