THAT SXAIAPOX CASE.

When it became known a week ago that a ca?* of smallpox existed in the city the Gazette concluded to say nothing concerning it. A strict silence was observed until the patient died, when the sanitary ordinance was attacked openly and the board of health inferentially. If tbe enterprising reporter had investigated the faets a different statement would have been the result. That no physician visited the patient is correct, but an investigation shows that his relatives consulted a physician in regard to the case, and that the physician prescribed for him. When the board of health had the patient removed to tbe pest house hise brothr accompanied him and remained with him until the time of his death. In addition to this there is a competent pereon in charge of the house, who carries out the orders of the board of health. As the patient was treated by his friends under the direction ct a physieian the board did not deem it neceesary to employ a physician, who, under the circumstances would have to abandon his other practice, for which aa a matter of course the city would have to reimburse him. Of course no physician in in duty bound to wait upon patients in the pest house, but whenever the occasion requires it one will be forthcoming. The memberB of the profession are not chicken-hearted. Heretofore it has been the custom for the physicians to select one cf their number to visit smallpox patients, and we bave yet to hear of the first one who declined to perform his duty.

We cannot agree with the Gazette that the sanitary ordinance on these points is defective. It confers upon the board of health ample powers to compel the en forcement of

&vj

measures which it deems

proper to adopt. In relation to its duties the ordinance reads: The board of health, hereby established, shall have general supervision of the sanitary condition of the city, and is hereby invested with power to establish and cnforce such ruleB and regulations ES they may deem rectfEPry to promote, preserve, and stcure the health cf the city, and to prevent the introduction and spreading of contagious, infectious, or pestilential diseases. The board cf health,or any mem ber thereof, Is empowered and authorized to enter any premises for the purpose of examining the sanitary condition thereof.

The board of health shall report to the com moil council all expenses which may be In curred in discharge ef tho aforesaid duties, and the said board of health shall exercise such other powers, and discharge such other duties as the common council may prescribe and it is hereby ei Joined upon the officers of said city to be attentive and vigilant in assisting the board of health in the execution of their duties.

If this does not give them unlimited power we do not understand it. The ninth section of the ordinance treats cf the duties of the board in case of contagious diseases and is as follows:

Whenever any person Bh&ll report to the board of health or any member thereof, that any person within the corporate limits cf Eaid city is affected with or suffering from smallpox, diphtheria, Ecarlet-fevcr, cholera or any other pestilential disease, it shall be the duty of said board of health or some member thereof, forthwith to examine the condition of the person so report ed of, and if it shall be found that such person is afflicted with and suffering from any such diseaee, said board of health or soee member thereof shall, at once, take such steps as maybe necessary to isolate such person, and if they deem it necessary shall cause such person to be removed to some suitable place or building, prepared for Euch cases. And whenever smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever, or any other pestilential disease is found to exist in any house or tenement to cause its pretence to be indicated by a red flag bearing the name of the disease in white letters. And it shall be the duty of the board of health to see that suitable disinfectants are promptly used, and to promptly enforce all such measures they may deem necessary to secure and promote the public health. And It shall be the duty of the board of health to investigate as far as possible the causes of such contagious and pestilential disease, and if possible, remove or abate such cause.

But if we had no ordinance whatever on tho subject the powers granted the state board of health are sufficient to cover the ground completely, and in all sanitary matters the city and county authorities are bound, under heavy penalties, to carry out all their orders. If an ordinance is deficient in any particular the state board can eoon remedy it if its attention is called to the matter, which would undoubtedly be done if necessity required it. In this instance there ia no necessity for any such intervention.

Theophilus Parsons died at Cambridge, Mass., on Friday. He was the son of the famous jurist of the Eaine name, and born in Newburyport, May 17,1797. He graduated from Harvard college in 1815,

WEB

admitted to tbe bar, and after a short visit to Europe began the practice of law at Tauntoa removieg after a while to Boston. He early became a regular contributor to the North American Review, and subsequently founded a periodisal of hie own, the United States Literary Gazette. In his youth he became a convert to tbe religion of Swedenborg, and during his life time wrote several books in defense and exemplification of this faith. The most noticeable of these was "Dens Homo." It was published in 1867, and became prominent as contrasted with "Ecce Homo," "Ecce Deup," and works of a similar character published at that time. In 1847 he was appointed Dane professor at law, at Harvard, and this position he conspicuously filled for over thirty year?. He was the author of many valuable works relating to mercantile and commerciol law.

Justice Ward Hunt, who has been retired frcm the supreme bench with a pension, was appointed by President Grant in December, 1872, and on the 4th of January, 1879, he was stricken with paralysis and has since been disabled from service Gn the bench. The law provides for the retirement of a supreme court judge* alter ten years of service, and after be Bhall have attained the age of seventy years, on a salary of $10,000 for the remainder of his life. Judge Hunt is over seventy years of age, but he has net been on the supreme bench ten years. If be resigns his seat within thirty days of the date of the passage of the bill it gives him the benefit of the pension. Judge Hunt is legally entitled to his office but the. exigencies of the court are such that business suffers seriously when any member of it i9 disabled from the discharge of his share cf its duties. On the ground of public necessity, the passage of such a law may be justified, notwitheftanding the fact that th6 precedent 13 an aolortonate one,

Since be eaicred the senate Senator Harrison has made two rpeeches, one in defense of Col. Dudley, and tbe other in memory of Sanstor Burcside. On both occasions he attracted wide attention, and has been the recipient of many handsome compliments. The Washington Post, a demccratic paper, says of his remarks on Monday IBSI:

Tbe many ccsapliments paid to Senator Harrison because cf his tribute to the memory of tbe late Senator Burnslde have excited a feeling cf pride In the hearts of Indladans In tbe'r new Sonator. It was noticed that Senator Hoar walked over to his seat, and he congratulated him very warmly in the presence cf the entire senate upon tbe manner in which, he had acquitted himself. Senator Lamar, whose literary and critical ability Is not surpased In the Senate, was heard to remark that the junior Senator from Indiana had fully sustained hia reputation by his finished address. SenAtbr Hampton, who had himself gained die approval and won the applause of both sides, with his usual generosity accorded to Senator Harrison the honor of having made one of the most effective addresses of this kind he had ever listened to. Such kindly utterances show the absence of Jealousy or partisan feeling among men of ability in the senate, and emphasizes the late President Garfield's declaration that the most fragrant floweta In public life are those which bloom across the garden wall of political parties, they Indicate, too, the readiness with which a man of genuine ability is recognized by that august body, and tho carhestness with which he is welcomed.^

A Medal for Grant's Old Guard. ST. LOUIS, January 28.—The PostDispatch publishes the followirg this afternoon: About two months after the Chisago convention, the idea of having a medal struck to commemorate the 6teady voting of the Grant phalanx originated with Don Cameron. A consultation was held between Roscoe Conkling, Chauncy I. Filley and others, and finally an order was given to J. M. Ker shaw, of this eity, to strike 330 bronze medals. The matter was to be kept a profound secret, and Kershaw was enjoined to silence. He has been working on the medals for several months, and they are now complete, and withfn a few days will be sent to Chauncy Fitky at Washington, who will superintend the distribution. The medals are cf brocze, perfectly round, 23 inches in diameter, 3-16 of an inch thick, and weigh nearly on pound. On the centro of the face is a profile head of General Grant underneath and extending partially around the head is a wreath of laurel and oak leaves. Around this is a slightly raised circle outside of which is the record of the Grant ballots arranged in a complete circle, the number of each ballot and vote being set down in a separate space. The record begins at the exact centre of the bottom when the medal is held in the proper position, and comprises the thirty' six ballots, which wavered from 302 to 313 betwsjgn the first and thirty-sixth ballots, which meet at the bottom of the ring. A star is engraved after the seventeenth, which reaches a point diametrically opposite the first, and the numbers reverse so that the figures can all be read without turning the medal around. Outside tbe record and along the rim a wreath of fleur de lie is handsomely worked, completing the face. Inscribed in the center of tbe reverse Bide are these word?, "Commemorative of the Thirty-six Ballots of the Old Guard, for Ulysses S. Grant for President, Republican National convention, Chicago, June, 1880." All the lines are straight save the first and laet, which curve gracefully in parellel with the edge. Under the last the name of the "Old Guard" to whom the medal v.ill be sent is inscribed. The lettering is very simple. A handsome border completes the reveree side. At the centre of the top is a hole in which to place a ribbon. The medal is altogether a very handsome bit of engraving. Grant's profile shows part cf the coat cellar and neck. Of the 330 medal?, one will be sent to each of the 313 delegates, who voted for Grant, and the balance to General Grant and a few stalwart friends.

The first design of the medal in brass was forwarded to New York, and submitted to General Grant, hia wife, Conkling and a few other ladies and gentlemenf for approbation.

MOKE INSTRUCTIONS "WANTED. WASHINGTON, January 28.—In the Criminal Court, this morning, Scoville and Beed, counsel for Guiteau, appeared, and the former inquired of the Court in respect of the form of his bill of exceptions, whether be would be compelled to except specifically or whether a general exception would suffice. Judge Cox staled lhat, under the practice of the court, he would have to e-xcept specifically. Scoville then stated that he had intended to file a motion for a hew trial, but would like to haVe utitil Monday. The District Attorney objected, and Scoville stated that in that case he would file his motion this afternoon in the Clerk's office. The District Attorney ssked the Court to assign Tuesday next for hearing argument upon the motion, but upon representations from Scoville that he would scarcely be able to enter upon tbe argument at that time, the Court declined to fix a day at present.

SCOVILLE'S DOCUMENTS.

WASHINGTON, January 28.—This afternoon, Scoville filed with the Clerk of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia the papers on which he bases his motion or motions far a new trial. Not being familiar with the practice in this District, Scoville concluded to file two motions, to assure himself against the possibility of being deprived through any legal technicality of the right of review by the court in general term. The papere filed in support of the motions are: the prisoner's affidavit the affidavit of Frederick H. Snyder as to the finding of a newspaper in the room occupied by the jury, under circumstances indicating ihst it had been read by the jury the affidavit of J. W. Guiteau, that he is acquainted with the signatures of five jurors, whose names are written on the margin of the newspaper said to have been eeen by the jurj that he hss seen them write their names, and believes tbe writing upon said newspaper to have been made by the jurors named. The last affidavit is that of Mr. Scoville, setting forth newly diecovered evidence upon which he bases his motion for a new trial.

THE FIRST PAPER

is a motion for a new trial upon the following grounds: First—By reason of the uncertainty in said verdict, in that the jury thereby found defendant, Guilty as indicted,1' whereas the indictment consists of different counts, variant from, and inconsistent with, each other, in matters of substance.

Second—That Baid verdict ©f the jury does not specify which count or counts of the indicment it was founded upon, and several of the counts being materially different from the others, the defendant is not advised by the substance of said verdict, as to the finding of the jury upon the material facts of the deatb, or place of death, of the deceased.

Third—For that the trial of this cause was commenced at the June term, 1881, of this court, and was not concluded in the eame term of court, but was extended into the December term, without authority of law.

Fourth—For that this court had no jurisdiction of this cause, by reason of the death of the deceased having taken place outside the District of Columbia.

Fifth—For that the court erred in overruling each and all the prayers upon the questions of law asked by the counsel for the defence, and in refusing to instruct the jury as requested in ecch of the fourteen prayers proposed by them.

Sixth—That the court erred on the trial of this cause in excluding proper evidence offered the defence, as set forth in the bill of exceptions.

Seventh—That the court erred ou tbe trial of this cause io admitting to go to the jury improper evidence on the pat of the prosecution, as shown in the bill of exceptions.

Eighth—That the Court erred in commenting improperly during the trial upon the «'..duct of the defendant, and in entering iuio an arrangement with the District Attorney (without knowledge of counsel for the defendant), whereby the jury aud expert witnesses for the prosecution, during a portion of the trial, might observe the conduct of the defendant to subserve the purpose of the prosecution—the defense being "insanity— without the restraining power of the court being exercised until those purposes were accomplished, to the great prejudice of the defendant,'

Ninth—Misbehavior of the jury in reading or hearing read to them newspapers calculated to prejudice their minds against the defendant, as shown in the affidavits of Frederick H. Snyder, George Scoville and John W. Guiteau, filed herewith.

Tenth—By reason of new and material facts, unknown at the time of the trial, and not ascertainable by reasonable diligence on the part of the defendant or his attorney, having come to light since the trial, as shown in the affidavit filed herewith.

Eleventh—That the verdict is contrary to the evidence. Twelfth—That the verdict is contrary to the law of the case. [Signed] GEORGE SCOVILLE,-.

Savit

Defendant's Attorney.

The second paper filed is a bill of exceptions, and contains the same points made in the motion for a new trial.

THE AFFIDAVITS.

Guiteau, in his affidavit, says as he is restrained of his liberty he is compelled to leave the whole matter of anew trial to Scoville.

The affidavit of F. H. Snyder, of Jersey City, sets forth that he was a guest at the National Hotel during a portion of the month of December, and occupied a room near those occupied by the jury in the Guiteau case. On one occasion he saw the door of one of the rooms so occupied standing open, but with no person therein, and on a table ia said room waa a. newspaper, and knowing that it was iorbidden the jury to have newspapers, he [Snyder] slipped in and took the paper, which he found was a copy of the Evening Critic, containing an account of the attempt of Jones to shoot Guiteau, and an editorial denouncing the prisoner. On the margins were either the names or initials of five of the jurors. In the interests of justice lie took tbe

feOMi! NOMINATION GOsSIP.

WASHINGTON, January 28.—Among the nominations sent to the Senate yesterday was that of H. B. Nichols, for Postmaster at Norfolk, Yirgioia. Nichols has held the office twelve years, and was suppoited for reappointment by Congreseman Dezendorf and opposed by Senator Mahone. At the request of Senator Mahone the President held the matter open about two months, and then suddenly appointed Nichols. The appointment took Senator Mahone by surprise, and he has written to the President and protested against it. Finally the President sgreea to withdraw the nomination. A meeyge of withdrawal will probably be sent to the Senate on Monday, unless Nichols and Dezendorf, who are now at the White House, can prevail upon the President to again change his mind.

The New York State Equal Suffrage convention will meet in New York (Sty, February 1st and 3d.

A joint special committee on wbman suffrage has Men appointed in the Massachusetts Legislature.

Woman suffrage petitions from different States are putting in an appearance in Congress.

At the Massachusetts Woman Suffrage State convention, held in Boston, January 10th and lith, such talented men and women as these advocated the movement: Hon. Wm, I. Bowditcb, George A. Walton, of the State Board of Education, Judge G. Washington Warren, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, ex-Governor William Claflin, Hon. Charles J. Noyes, Speaker of the House, Mrs. Margaret W. Campbell, Mrs. Lacv Stone, Rev. Samuel B. Stew art, Rev. J. W. Bashford, Mrs. H. H. Bobinaon, J. F. Almy, of tbe House of Representatives, Rev. Annie H. Shaw, F. A. Burton, of Harvard College, Bev. B. A. Horton, B. B. B1 ark well, Bev. Wm. B. Wright, Mary F. Eastman and Mis. A. M. Diss. Musio was furnished by a quartette of young ladies tastefully attired in white, who gave their services as a free-will offering to the cause. The stage was srranged as a drawing room, with carved ebony furniture, swinging mirror*, embroidered screens, ses of flowers, etc. All this is mentioned to show that youth and beauty, tasteful dressing, artistic belongings and fragrant blossoms are not incompatible with woman suffrage.

The fourteenth annual convention of the National Woman Suffrage Association was held in Washington, January 18th, 10th and 20th. Delegates were present from about twenty States. Indiana was represented by Mrs. May Wright Sewall, Mrs. Laura Kreglo, Mrs. Alexina S. Maxwell, of Indianapolis, and Mrs. Helen Gougar, of Lafayette.

Woman suffrage belongs to that better stste of things which is already incorporating itself in the history and economy of the world. Many of the changes which are constantly taking place in society show us that the reform for which we labor is ia the true order of tbe day. The ameliorations already seen in the condi tion of women mark its progress.—[Julia Ward Howe.

What is a Nation but a collection of families? What is afanily without woman'a aid and influence in its government?

If a family is better governed by female aid, shall it be argued that a collection of families Bhould dispense with female in fluence?—Elizabeth A, Merriwether.

Not many jears ago the Boston Lyceum Committee met to consider whether women should be allowed to attend Lyceum lectures. Some thought not, but Dr. Ly man Beecher urged and obtained for women an invitation to do so. How many do you suppose at tended at the next lecture, when one of the most distinguished men in the country was tbe speaker? Only two. Yet now a majority of audiences at Lyceam lectures are women. Some say that because only 6,679 women voted for school suflrsge last year in Massaohusets, under all the difficulties and restrictions imposed therefore women ought not to vote. But this is a question of time, Give women the power to vote ou the same terms as men, and you will soon see them vote as generally as men do. I have no more doubt that women will vote all over the United States just as men do, on all questions in which they are interested, in the near future, than I had, twentyfive years ago, that slavery would be abolished.—[Hon. William Ciafliu.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE

IS

WYOMING.

There is no doubt here, among people whose judgment is worth having, that the experiment has been a success and that it will be permanent. In conversation with Mr. E. Post, delegate-elect to Congress from this territory, he assured me that the measure had been productive of nothing but good. In answer to my questions, he said that the subject had not b«en agitated by woman's rights reformers of either sex, but that it had been adopted by their Legislature simply as an advertisement of their young territory, I,and as such it has been a great hit, for Wyoming was tslked about all over the world. "But," continued Mr. Post, "while this act has not bad that motive, it has been attended with such excellent results that we should never think of revoking it, even if we had a constitutional right to withdraw the franchise from the people. All our women vote, or at least as nearly

as the men do, and tbe effect has been to give us a better class of officers. The condition of our finances ia an illustration. Before the women voted we were ruled so largely by thieves and rascals that our 'promises to pay' were dishonored our credit was bad. Somehow women seem to know by instinct an honest man from a rogue, and as soon as tbey got the right they voted the rascals out, and it was not long before our debts were promptly paid, our warrants were received at par, and our officials attended to the duties for which they were elected." "Do your women run for office?" "No, sir that don't seem to enter their heads, but no matter who or what they may be themselves, tbey vote for tbe best man. The women are exempt from jury duty, just as some men are in the Eastern States."

Art Exchange

Begs leave to call the attention cf the American people to its mode of business and asks the support of the art-loving public. We shidl, as fast as possible, ring out in this country, in the highest style of artistic work, every famous art work of the Old World, and at prices which will enable the peopls of moderate means to adorn their homes with the choicest art works.

Aa an introductory example of the quality and style of work which will be produced by us, we will take pleasure in forwarding to any applicant a Complimentary Copy Free of the first edition of art work produced by us in America.

Visitors to the Dore Gallery, London, will remember the superb painting, occupying nearly an entire side of the splendid gallery, entitled

Of this magnificent painting—the meat important of Dora's works—a pure line steel engraving has just been completed in England. This engraving ia only sold by subscription, and tbe 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 aa he is leaving the Prsetorium, after being condemned to crucifiction. He is descending the steps leading from the judgment court. At the foot of the steps stands two burly executioners, in charge of the cress which the Savior is to bear. On the right are the followers and believers of Christ, with despair in their every look, while the mother of our Lord is an agonized and fainting attendant. In the rear and on tbe left are tbe 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 deecends the steps to tske up the cross and bear it to be scene of his crucifixion. PTbe work in this portion of the engraving is more perfect and beautiful than we had supposed could ever be execute. The expressions of the faces, the grouping of the figures1 and the careful attention to detail in the drapery and accessories of tbe picture, are all carricd out in perfection and with consummate skill. There is a very large number of figures in the work, tnd all are depicted with life-like faithfulness. It stands today unquestionably The Finest and Most Valuable

Engraving in the World, The engraving of the plates cost upward of $30,000, and no copies from it are sold at a less price than $30, which, with duties and shipping added, brings tbe coet 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 at prices which will enable the multitude to purchase.

This first work, "Ohrist Leaving the Prsetorium." will be used as an introductory advertisement, and a limited number will be furnubed

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 the English house. The American edition will be furnished in the same size and with the same attention to perfect work as characterizes the $30 copies.

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

Until the first edition is exhausted, we will ship a perfect copy of the engraving, "Christ Leaving the Prcetorium," 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 postage, which will be 10 three-cent postage stamps. It was at first thought 20 cents would be sufficient for this charge, but from frequenl breaking of tbe tubes in the mail bags it was decided to increase the thickness and strength of the tubes (thus making them heavier^ so that they could not be broken except in case of an accident. This necessitated an increase of charges for this purpose to 30 cents, or 10 three-cent stamps.

On receipt of application we will immediately forward tnis superb 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. At any time within one year we will take b?ck the engraving and el low a credit of $3 for it in payment for any works issued by us.

Two or more copies, each for a different person, but to the same address, can be forwarded at tbe cost of 21 cents each, as one tube can be used for several copies. Not more than five copies will be Bent to any one address for distribution, and tbe name of each member of the club must be sent.
