Congressman Pacheco is being urged for the Chilian mission. He is a native of California, of Spanish-Mexican parentage, and has been governor of the state. He ia as familiar with the Spanish language as with the English, and would, his friends say, make a creditable representative of the government in any court.

One of the leading democratic politicians of Ohio, recognizing the demoralised condition of his party in that state, declares that another'year of auch wrangling will kill any hope of success for ten years. He save: "I see only one way out of the present deplorable condition of affairs, and that is for 6very democrat in Ohio to put his mouth in a vise and keep it there for the next four months."

A few Ohio capitalists who own 20,000 acres of iron land?, on wbich twelve mines have already been opened, and which are only sixty miles from. Like Ontario, are at present in Washington endeavoring to have some member of congress introduce a bill, which they have prepared, providing for the removal of the twenty per cent, ad valorem tax ou iron ore. The bill had not been introduced at latest aecounts, nor is it likely to be for some time to come, unless its advocates could prevail on Frank Hurd to .assist them in their clear case of jobbery.

Major Seth Otis died of heart disease at Ann Arbor, Mich., on Monday morning. In 1837 he went into the hardware busi ncss in Chicago, where he continued seven years was director of the Chicago branch of the Illinois state bank at the organix ation of the militia in 1841, he was elected by the citiaens of Chicago major of the seventy-sixth regiment was the originator and founder of the Young Men's Association of Chicago. From 1844 to 1846 he was consul at Bade, Switzerland, and for fifteen years subsequent was New York manager of H. B. CUflia & Co.'* collections. For some years pssfc he has lived in quiet retirement at Ann Arbor, in the ^enjoymect pf hit iTdi-earMd property

POLITICAL PROSPECTS.

Already the party prospects of the future are be ng agitated. This year Indiana electa state officers, with the exception of governor, and various county officers. The democrats have commenced their campaign operations, and from present indications their convention will be held early, probably not later than May. The republicans eeem to be in no hurry about their convention, which will scarcely be held before July or August, some preferring to wait- until September. The time of holding the republican state convention is of little consequence. There will be no wrangle over the nominations. It is generally conceded that the incumbents will not be nominated. The party should pay more attention to organisation and work than to conventions. Tbe state and county committees should be placed in good working order tw soon as possible, so tbat when the campaign does commence everything may work smoothly.

Although this is an cfi year the republicans are resonably confidant of victory. The democrats are in a badly demoralised condition, and it is doubtful if they are all very desirous of democratic success. There is reason to believe that Mr. Hendricks still has presidential aspirations but there is no reason to believe that his party will ever favor him with the nomination. The presidential bee i» al«o making a great de$l of noise around exSenator McDonald's Bead, whom Mr. Hendricks hatea as cordially as he himself is ha'ted by tbe Grammercy Park statesman. On the tariff question, too, there is a wide difference of opinion among the democratic statesmen of Indiana. Yoorheea has come over to the republicans and accepted their views in favor of protection. Hendricks has declared in favor of the famous plank, "a tariff for revenue only." McDonald also adopted the latter view, but since that lime has modified his remarks in such a manner that he can be construed either wav.

The condition of the democratic party in any portion of the country is not such aa to inspire lbs rank and file with confidence. The prcspect of a united democratic party for a presidential campaign two years hence i? very slight. In New York, without which the democracy have never been successful, there is an irrepressible conflict between two factions, each of which exists only to crush the other. In Virginia, which hag been designated as "the keystone of the democratic arch," the democratic party has gone to pieces. In Ohio,' a state whioh has several presidential candidates, there is also a gigantic family quarrel in progress, the result of the last campaign. In Mississippi the distinct issue has been raised by independent democrats against the prescriptive policy of the party managers. In Louisiana there are several gentlemen who have been prominent in the democratic ranks, and who have sounded the note of warning for a like movement. In North Carolina the party lines have been strained to such an extent that they are likely to snap within a year, and the same may be said of Texas. These inatacoes of discord are not the ordinary gquabblea of party leaders after a hard fought campaign, from which disappointment could not bo avoided. The dissatisfaction is too widespread and systematic to afford the democratic party any hope of success. The hope which for a half score of years has held the democratic party together has been the capture of the government by the aid of the eolid south. That hope is now dead, and the south is realizing the fact ..that gits solidity has been the weakness of the democratic party, and leads to the belief that it will eoon go to pieces, as has the democratic party in Virginia. -The future of the democracy is anything but flattering, and nothing short of the most egregious blundering on the part of the republicans, can save it from an early dissolution.

Clarkeon Nott Potter, who died in New York Monday, was torn in Schenectady, N.Y.,in 1825 graduated at Union College in 1842 one year later he graduated at Rensselaer institute as civil engineer, and proceeded to exercise his calling as a surveyor in Wisconsin. While in that state he studied law, and after.being admitted to the bar commenced the practice of his profession in New York in 1847. While ennaged in a namber of important euitp, in 1808, he was elected a representative to the fortyfirst congres?, and was elected to the two subsequent congresses on the ticket headed by Mr. Robinson. He became- conspicuous, in 1878, as chairman of the committee appointed by the house of representatives to investigate the alleged fraud in the late presidential election in the states of Louisiana and Florida/

Geo. W. Smaliey telegraphs from London as follows: The scandalous gossip published in a New York paper respecting the British minister at Washington is wholly discredit* here by those in a position to know. It is believed that it was prepared in London by his personal enemies, and was sent to New York tn order that it might be telegraphed here. It was telegraphed, but the London papers zefnaed to publish it, and the matter remains unknown outside diplomatic circles, where it is said the Madrid scan-^ dal is declared to be not only untrue In fact, but was never heard of In Madrid itself.

That such statements, without any foundation in fact, should have gained such a wide circulation in this country is a disgrace, but it is [some .consolation to know that they were concocted on the other side of the Atlantic and sent over here for circulation.

Young E. Allison, formerly of tbe Evansvillo Journal, late of the Louisville Courier-Journal, will succeed L. F. Howie tt as managing editor of the Lonisville Commercial.

It provides that violators of the^^ovisiona of section 5,028, revised sta&' is, shall be fined not more than $50,0QU, or imprisoned not more than five years, or both, and retains the penalties prescribed in the aforesaid section. 'Beck remarked that this unlawful prao tice was going oh tQ the amount of $100,000,000 a day that under the law the penalty is forfeiture of the bank charter, but that no punishment had yet been inflicted upon the guilty parties. On hia motion the bill was referred to the Finance Committee.

Additional bills were introduced as follows: By Plumb, proposing an amendment to the Constitution, prohibiting the manufacture, importation snd Bale of all distilled, and fermented liquors aa a beversge, in any portion of the United States and Territories.

By Teller, a joint resolution declaring forfeited, so far as the same have-not been earned by the fulfillment of their conditions, the land grants to twenty-two railroads, enumerated in the bill, including the Northern Pacific, Atlantic & Pacifio, and Texas Pacific. The eelimated quantity of lands granted each of these is pet forth in the bill as respectively, 47,000,000,42,000,000 and 18,000,000 acres.

B7 Pugh, to enforce the observance of the Constitution in reference to elections of President and Vice President. It punishes with a fine of $5,000 to $20,000, aud imprisonment for from five to ten years, any Congressman, or holder of a Government office of trust or profit, who exercises or attempts to exercise the powers of Presidential Elector. The same punishment is imposed for the false assumption by any one of the office of Elector, and for conspiracy in aid thereof.

By Voorheeu, for the better protection of the mails of the United States. The bill directs the Postmaster General to require all railroads in the United States to heat railway mail cars by steam from the locomotives.

A resolution submitted by Hoar was adopted, calling on the Secretary of the Interior for information as to the sums expended under the treaties for the education of Indian children, to what extent treaty obligations in this direction have not been fulfilled, what it will cost the United States to perform such unfulfilled obligations, if any, what amount of the sum expended for the support of Indians has been expended for schools, etc also, calling on the Secretary of War for information as to the cost to the Government of Indian wars during the past ten years, and the cost of so much of the army as has been engaged in the observation or control of the Indians, or whose presence has been neceESary as a protection from danger from Indian hostilities.

Consideration of the Sherman three per cent, bond bill was resumed, and the disenssion was carried on by Call^ Bayard, McPhereon and Beck, but without action, the bill was laid aside.

A message from tne President was received, transmitting drafts of bills to increase the salary of the Commissioner of the General Land Office to $5,000 a year, and create the offices of Ajssistant Commissioner' of the General Land Office, at a salary of $3,000 per year and five Inspectors for Surveyor Generals and District Land Offices also, to increase the salary of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to $5,000 and create the office of Assistant Commissioner of Indian Affairs at $3,000 per annum.

Tbe Senate, without action on the bill, went into executive session, and soon adjourned until to-morrow.

THK HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24,1882 Reed, on.behalf of the Committee on Jodiciary, asked leave to take from the Speakers' table for immediate consideration the Senate bill to retire Associate Justice Ward Hunt, of the U. S. Supreme Court Holman objected.

Haskell, of Kansas, from the Committee on Ways and Means, reported back the bill admitting free of duty all clothing and o.'her articles charitably contributed for the relief of colored people who may have emigrated to their homes from oiher States, and not for sale.

Cox, of New York, wanted to amend by striking out the word "eolored," so as apply the provisions of the bill to all goods contributed for charity. He wanted cheap clothing. He thought the House and the Treasury could stand his amendment.

Haskill refused to yield for tbe amendment. His bill simply applied to a little charitable institution in his State, asd be did net desire to draw into the discussion the question of tariff. Next week the Committee on Ways and'Means would report a bill concerning the tariff question, and it was the intention to open up more or less the whole subject.

Hooker, of Mississippi, objected to the bill because, in his opinion, it did not provide a sufficient safe-guard against the sale cf tbe goods imported.

Carlisle, of Kentucky, contended tbat sufficient safeguards existed, and Morrison, of Illinois, assured Cox that whenever some poor peoph asked for alike charity, Congress would be found ready to extend it. "VI -T

The bill passed?--Ortb, of Indiana, Chairman of the Com mittee on Civil Service Reform, reported a resolution calling on the President for information as to what action had been taken by him to carry out tbe provisions of the act of Congress appropriating $15,000 to enable the President to promote the efficiency of the different branches of the civil service and, if said sum is insufficient, what further amount is necessary for the purpose adopted.

The House went into Committee of tbe Whole, Robinson, of Massachusetts, in •.he chair, on the fortification appropriation bilL After an unimportant discussion the committee rejected a couple of amendments, reported the hill to the house, and it passed.

THE'ASSASSIN

[CbjUinued from Fvrti .Page.]

Continuing Judge .Porter said,"Who axe responsible? John H. Noyea, he is responsible He killed Garfield, John H. Noyes from whom the prisoner Etole his lectures

Guitcau—"That is false. I rely on my own brains." Judge Porter—"Who else? His father is responsible that Father whom he struck when 18 ears lcl, he killed President Garflei father whom he says he can nevei tui _,ive *i.«t with whom he had not lor tV.c Isrt 10 jeara of his honored life exchanged a word. Who else is responsible? Why the mother the mother whom he scarcely remembers, who was guilty of the monstrosity ef having an attack of erysipelas so as to necessitate the cutting on of her hair some weeks before his birth and who, for this reason, it is asserted, transmitted congenital insanity to this murderer. Who else is responsible? Why, Uncle Abram, who was drunken and dissolute, but not insane. He transmitted insanity to him although he didn't become insane until after he (prisoner) was born. He killed Garfield tm making the prisoner insane. Who 'else is responsible? Why Uncle Francis killed Garfield Uncle Francis, who as we are told, being disappointed in love, either killed the husband ofths woman he loved or fought a sham duel, and long after became demented. He killed Garfield by making this man a congenital monstrosity, as Dr. Spitzka says. Then cousin Abbey, she is responsible, who, unfortunately, was taken possession of by one of this Guiteau tribe, a traveling mesmerist, and her youug mind so wrought upon that finally she was, for better protection^ sent to an insane asylum. She killed Garfield by making this murderer insane and as if all this were not enough to kill President Garfield—"

Guiteau—"There's enough to kill your case, according to your own showing." Judge Porter—"why the Chicago convention Silled him. 'If they hadn't nominated him I should not have killed bim,' says the prisoner. The doctors killed him for if he had not been chosen President he wouldn't been killed. His nomination was the act of God, and his electionjwas the act of God', says .the prisoner, and he would have us believe Deity, who has thus twice confirmed his choice, found it necessaiy to correct his labors by appointing this wretched swindler, this hypocrite, this syphilitic monstrosity to murder the President whose nomination ancl election he confirmed. These are the defenses put forward by this prisoner and his trained counsel to divert your attention from the fact that the deliberate murderer of Garfield sits there (pointing at the prisoner) but even this is not enougb. The press killed Garfield and the press is arraigned by the prisoner, and without an indictment the press is found guilty by the murderer. But for. tunately they are found guilty only by the blistered tongue of the murderous liar himself." Judge Porter denied the assumption of Reed that President Garfield thought Guiteau insane and. quoted from conversations with his doctors to 6how the weakness of the assertion. Alluding to President Arthur Judge Porter asserted that he was Garfield's successor by the same constitutional force ot legitimacy as was Garfieid himself.

Guiteau shouted—"May be so—by the inspiration of Guiteau, and ddn't you torget it, Porter."

Replying to the taunt from the prisoner, Porter described him as slippery as an orange peel, as venomous as a rattlesnake, and speaking of the act of murder said, "This was a rattlesnake without a rattle, but not without fangs. I might detain you a week but I am here for the purpose of ascertaining whether this man,^, is guilty, and these collateral issues I will not delay upon. The junior counsel for the defense,' said Judge Porter, 'has told you you are kings, implying that you may override the law and evidence in grasping an almost intangible doubt and ignoring the soUd structure of the evidence of guilt. You are not kings, and the man who told you. so is the junior counsel, the only man of fifty millions who would or could recommend Guiteau for office."

Hr,

Recess. After recesss Judge Porter resumed his argument and pointed out the cunning, the duplicity, tbe acting of the prisoner since the beginning of the trial. You are, gentlemen of the jury, no more kings in respect of the law than is the prisoner on the dock, who sits uncrowned, save with his own conceit." Referring to thfe oft repeated assertion that he had'

Beat

Garfield prepared to meet his God and that he (Guiteau), too, was ready to die, if God willed it, Judge Porter, with deliberate emphasis, said: "I do not believe that in all this assemblage there is one soul that contemplates with such abject terror the possibility of facing his Maker as does this brazen murderer."

Guitean whirled around with tbe ferocity of a wild beast, and fairly yelled: "That's a miserable lie, and you know if, Porter, at jou are an infernal scoundrel. 1 hr^e God Almighty will send for you soon—both you and Corkhill. Such a miserable, stinking whine aa that is!" "The law," Baid Judge Porter," as it bears upon this esse, is supreme. The Court and you are bnt simply God made men,.under the obligation of a solemn oath to bring in your verdict under the law and facts." Summing up the questions presented by the case, upon which they were soon to be called upon to pass, Judge Porter said: "The first of the questions for you to consider if was the prisoner insane on the second of July if he was not, the case is at an end, and your sworn duty is ended. "Second—If you reach that—if he was insane on thai day—was he insane to that degree, that on the 2d of July he did not know that murder was morally and legally wrong if he was not insane to that degree you are bound under your oath to convict bim. "Third—If in utter disregard of his confessions under oath you shall find that he actually and honestly believed that God had commanded him to kill President Garfield, and that he wan under a delusion—unless you find the further fact that such delusion disabled him from knowing that such act was morally and legally wrong—yon are bound under yonr oaths to convict him. ''Fourth—If you find that such delusion did exist, that God commanded him to do the act, and that such delusion was the sole product of insanity, then, and then only, you can acquit him, when you find that he was unable to control his own will, and you must remember that under oath, he has sworn that he was able to control it, for he said 'Had Mrs. Garfield been with him on the 2d of July, I would not have shot him.' "Fifth—If you find that even though he 'was partially insane, it resulted from his own malignity—his own depravity—yet still you are tSound under the instruction of the Court to convict him. "Sixth—If, upon tbe whole esse, yon have no reasonable doubt whether he was partially or wholly insane if yon believe he knew he knew his act was legally and morally wrong, you are, under your oaths, bound to convict him. "The law is founded upon reason, and it must not be said that an American jury shall override the law and establish a principle which will let murder and raps end arson run riet through the land.

Porter then went on to discuss the lints of law as laid down by Judge in this case. After he had disposed of that question, he took op again the question of the responsibility cf the prisoner. "What household," he said, "would be safe, what church would proUet its worshipers, if this man were to escape .on the plea of irresponsibility? Is -A

poii C01

troe that any man who has had an insane cousin, an insane ancle, an insane aunt, or an insane ancestor, and who ia not, himself, insane, but knows perfectly tbat fctotder ia legally and mcrally wren*, is to escape punish-, ment? May be stab or shoot, or waylay, or murder in any form, by day or by night, and then, claim, in his vindication, not that he is insane himself, but that somebody else was? If so, what is human lift worth? Nay, more: if it were true, everylnsane man, no matter in what degree, no matter whether from •melancholia or from any of those casual or occasional aberrations of mind, is tt liberty to commit burglary, to fire your dwelling house, to set the city of Washington on fire whep frost shall stiffen tbe water and when fire is destruction to ravish our dsughter. What security is there? 'hft is the license for which this brother-in-law of Guiteau contends, namely: that law is intended only for rational men, and that all of these, crimes which I have mentioned may be committed by license, not by law, but from one of twelve Emperors or Kings, in defiance of law, and of instructions from tbe court. Nay, more: the insane of the country—I mean the undoubtedly insane—who are the inmates of lunatic asylums, are to learn from the verdict, in this case, if the theory of the defense shall be sustained, that each of them is at liberty to murder the keeper who restrains him that they are all at liberty to confederate-to open the gates of the asylum and go out, knife and torch in hand, and spread ruin snd conflagration in every directionrand although Die law forbids it, an American jury can be found that will sanction the act."

The prisoner—That is very fine, but it is all bosh, Mr. Forter. More than that: any man who has insanity in any degree shall be at liberty to murder any other insane man. I believe that if a jury could be'empannelled in a lunatic asylum in this country, they would say of this man not only that they would be endangered by his presence but that he is perfectly sane. Was this man insane on tbe 2nd of July? If he was not, you have but one duty, and that is to convict him. He was not insane. I aver what this proof indisputably establishes: he never was insane, and certainljr not on the second of Jnly. On that point the principal claim by the prisoner and his counsel is the atrocity of this particular act. I do not deny his claim of being the most cold blooded and savage murderer of tbe last six thousand years. Bnt he is not alone, as he will find when he comes to those realms where murderers are consigned. Murder has existed in all ages. Four thousand years ago there was inscribed on the tables of stone the command to all people "Thou shalt not kill." But Guiteau says that life is of small consideration. He says ip one of his letters of consolstion to tbe widow: "Life is but a fleeting dreamt His death might have happened at any time." But theJLaw Giver of tbe universe entertained different views on the value of human life when be said: "Whoso sheddeth man's bloovl, by msn shall his blood be shed,"

The prisoner—That waB three or four thousand years ago. We have new laws since then.

Porter—And that mau in the dock tells you that the same God

#that

placed

that value on human life plaoed no value on the life of James A.Garfield, and that as to that life, it was bat of small value. It was a fleeting dresm. We have had the gospel of Guiteau, and he thinks that this jury will endorse his gospel. Christ, speaking to the scribes obarieees, said: "Ye who claim to be of the seed of Abraham, prove it by doing the acts of Abraham but ye are the children of your fstber, the devil, who was a murderer from the beginning."-

The prisoner—That takes you in, Porter. Porter—That is the insanity which this man has inherited. The man is a liar as well as an assassin, and he was instigated, not by the Almighty but by the devil.

The prisoner—[Alluding to Porter's habit of lowering his voice at the end of a sentence]—The point is so fine that I cannot hear it over heie. You better do it again, Judge.

Porter went on to review the prisoner and his life of crime, in whioh he included adultery.

The prisoner—How many times have you been guilty of that look up your record, old man. I guess you are about as bad as Corkhill.

Porter went on to refer to the prisoner's life in Washington, and asked: "Was this temporary mania, Abrahamic mania or disease of the brain, which- resulted in a murder for the benefit of ths stalwarts of the Republican party?"

The prisoner.—For the benefit of the American people. A removal,not a^murder. They are very well satisfied with it, too.

Porter—Gentlemen, if I went no further, do you believe that this man's brain was diseased? Ideal with nothing else now: was his brain diseased? ana did tbe disease come and go according to whether President Garfield went out alone, or went out with his wife, or went out with bis children, or went to ths Soldiers' Home, or went to the railroad depot? Do you believe tbat the right remedy for disease of tbe brain is to make six weeks' preparation for assassination, and that shooting another msn through tbe spine is a cure for the diBease?^ That is the case, as the prisoner* makes it out.

The prisoner—If I were President of the United States,~Snd had ruined the Republican party as Garfield had, I ought to be shot. Tbat is my opinion about tbat, and it is ths opinion of a great many people, too.

In the course of his further argument Perter referred to the prisoner's divorced wife as a woman who loved him

The prisoner—I did notjlove her. It was a one-sided affair. Porter—The woman who married him

The prisoner—That was a swindle. Porter—The woman who slept with him:—

The prisoner—Sometimes she did and sometimes she 'did not. Porter—The woman who borrowed for him, and who gave the earnings of her industry to furnish him with money which he spent on street prostitute*

The prisoner—That is a lie, and a big prisonerone

Porter—The woman whose divorce was secured by his procurement, by all sorts of deceit, meanness and ignominy.

The prisoner—I had no business to marry her at all. Porter—He and his prostitutes were witnesses to aid him in removing his wife.

Tbe prisoner—All that happened ten years ago, and has nothing to do with this case.

Porter went on to argue against the claim of the prisoner's insanity, and while he was looking for an extract in the testinooj, thi -priaowr took idTint* age of the pause, and said "This gives me time to say that I am in receipt of a letter from New York, in which the writer says he hss conversed with 250 intelligent people about my case, and that all of them are of the opinion that the Almighty inspired my act. I hare also a letter from a prominent lawyer in Maryland, who says I will to into history by tbe side of Grant and Washington. That is their opinion on this matter.

Porter, referring to tbe testimony of Mrs. Scoville, paid her a compliment as a sincere woman, and said she had never noticed insanity in the prisoner until tbe time when he raised an axe upon her, when be was thirty-five years of age.

The prisoner—That never occurred. Porter—Your sister swore itdld oocor, and she is a womkn of truth, while you It 4 hare eomasitted perjury.

The pr'eoner—That ia matte of opinion. Porter—She-csme into court with unbloodied, hands, and she went out of it as she entered it, an honest woman, believing what she asserted. "I lifted no axe against this sister." He did. There is hie own sister, the only one who hss stock by him faithfully and honestly. She tells you honestly that the first time she thought him insane was when he was thirty-five years of age. Shesay?: Ihad ao thought before that he was not in his night mind.

The prisoner—The letters that I show that the America** people are solid for me. Do not forget that, Porter.

Further reference by Porter te the incident of the axe brought from the prisoner this remark: "It was a very stupid thing for Scoville to bring tn that axe matter at all. He might have known the use the prosecution would have made out of it. That is about as smart as the Scoville family are. The whole thing is bosh from begining to end."

Porter went on to criticise the testimony of Reed, Ameerling, and North. He said it would take a thousand Norths to make him believe that Luther W. Guitesu, that calm, quiet, religious man, ever said to an old father and an old mother who had an only son that did not want them to go to the Oneida Community, "Take a knife and slay him, as Abraham did Isaac."

At this stage of Porter's argument the court adjourned.

Bent Up for Eleven Years. fft. Louis, Jsn.24.—The Post-Dispatch special from Kansas City says: A. J. Wagoner was found guilty to-day of murder in the second degree, and the punishment assessed at eleven years in the penitentiary. Wagoner was charged with causing the dea'h of Norman Bauder by slow opium poisoning. Bauder came to Kansas City from New York in the spricg of 1881, and hsd considerable money. Wagoner ruined him financially, made him drunk, and as the post mortem re' vealed, caused his death by opium. ..

In the German Reichstag yesterday, during the debate on the budget, a discussion arose concerning the late Imperial rescript, Bismarck said it did not aim at a new Constitution. The maxim: "The King reigns," but does not govern, did not apply to Germany. The expression, "Ministerial responsibility," was equally absurd. He declared that the rescript remained unshsksn by the attack upon it. He was fully aware of his responsibility in signing it, and he was answerable for all the acts of the Sovereign. It was to the Sovereign, he said, and not to Parliament, that Germany owed the position she enjoyed. Bismarck asked whether sny one could reproach him with cowardice. There was great uproar on the left, and Bismarck stepped forward and repeated his inquiry, saying: "Is there one among you who dares bring such a charge
