THE salt- of the Southerland library realized $100,000 for about one-fifth of the books. Tlie library of the duke ot Hamilton, the nex^famous collection to go to the auctioneer, is valued at $2,500,000. The duke needs money or he wouldn't sell it.
MART ANDKHSON writes to a Boston paper viciously denying the rumor lhat she is signing her name Mamie, and asking it to retract the assertion. The mistake probably arose from the fact that Dr. Hamilton Griffin, her assistant pa, always signs his name "Hammie" when writing to the people of the press for advance notices

THE Pennsylvania railroad company has investigated the dead-head list. The opportune time selected was during tne session of the Legislature—the Pennsylvania Legislature, be it remembered. It •was discovered that from fifty to sixty iead-heads rode on every train to the *State capital. Jo other words, the com* pany liad to carry two car loads of passengers on each train, ior whom not a •cent of fare was paid. The company is certain that th® practice of lending passes has been extensively indulged in. The conscquence is that the whole pass system has been overhauled. Editors legislators and men of influence have been considerably scandalized by having their checky doings interfered with.

The total property valuation of the county is $156,562,000, of which $3815,000 is personal, $15,674,000 is landr, and $104,588,000 is town and city lota—mainly in Chicago.

SINCE the Virginia election it has been quite the fashion for the Republican papers to report alleged breaks in the Democratic ranks in other states. Among others, so-called independent movements ware stated to be taking firm hold in Texas and South Carolina The truth of these reports may be judged when Senator Coke of Texas expresses indignation at the publication of what he denounces as a manufactured interview with him. Says Coke: "I never heard of the interview until now. I have never ex pressed suoli sentiments and opinions as I understand this so-called interview imputes to me. My candid opinion is that the independent movement in Texas will be defeated by 75,000 majority.'* As re gards South Carolina, Benator Butler, who had been represented as contemplating a revolt against the Democracy in his state^ said that the publication was too absurd to merit serious consideration. As iar as the condition of the Democracy in South Carolina was concerned, it was now more united and harmonious than it had been in the past. He further said that the success of the Keadjosters in Virginia, instead of weakening or disorganizing the Democracy ot South Carolina, had cemented it more firmly together that the Democrats of his state saw in the Readjuster victory i» thing more uor less than Republican suc« inri they had suffered too much under the rule ot lhat party to be duped or deceived into giving it any aid. ... a.-:
THE Warren Republican has, so to speak, hoisted the flag of alphabetic Pierce, our present representative in Congress, as its candidate for re-election. It says:
Hon R. B. P. Pierce, the present Representative in Congress from this, the Eighth Congressional District, will undoubtedly be a candidate for re-election. So far as we know he has made a good Representative, and is entitled to the good will and support of all the Republicans in the district, and should as a matter of fairness, be returned. We do not at this time know of an aspirant in this county for the position, and hence Warren, in the convention, will have no fight to make. It is not reasonable to suppose that one term in such a position gives a man much chance to develop into an Orth, a Browne, or a Heilman. It is only by a series of terms that our best Representatives are made, and it is that which places them in a position in the Capital of rendering service to the party and commanding an influence which is respected. Then if we have a good Representative in Mr. Pierce, why not old Warren rally to Ms support when the time comes and return him
Vigo County Republicans will have a candidate of their own, according to our understanding, though our sources of information as to what is going on in the Republican camp are not of the best.
BENJAMIN HARRISON the junior Senator irom Indiana, was one among the many members of that body who paid an oratorical tribute of respect to the late Senator Burnsides, on the occasion when resolutions to his memory were before them. Of his speech the Washington
The many compliments paid to Senator Harrison because of his tribute to the memory ot the late Senator Burnsides have excited a feeling of pride in the hearts of Indianians in their new Senator. It was noticed that Senator Hoar walked over to his seat, and he congratulated him very warmly in the presence of the entire Senate upon the manner in which he had acquitted himself. Senator Lamar, whose literary and critical ability is not surpassed in the Senate, was heard to remarK that the junior Senator from Indiana had fully sustained her reputation by his finished address. Senator Hampton, WMO had himself gained the approval and wou the applause of both sides, with his usual generosity accorded to Senator Harrison tbe honor of having made one of the most effective addresses of this kind he had ever listened to. Suoh kindly utterances show tbe absencc of jealousy or partisan feeling among men of ability in the Senate, and emphasizes the late President Garfield's declaration that the most fragrant flowers in public life are IhosS which bloom across the garden wall of political parties. They indicate, loo, the readiness with which a man of genuine ability is recognized by that august body, and the earnestness with which he is welcomed.
THE unfortunate Hebrews fleeing from persecution in Russia are arriving in New York in such numbers as to causa serious embarrassment to the Hebrew EmigAnt society of that city. This society was organized to receive and assifet tbe exiles, but it did not imagine that the movement would exhibit such large proportions. Of the 705 immigrants landed at Castle Garden last Saturday 300 were Hebrewfe from Russia, many of them
ifiiilllills
destitute condition, and nearly all requiring some sort of assistance. The New Yark society already had 300 Hebrew exiles under its care on Ward's island, and this new accession to the number of dependents upon its bounty causes no little inconvenience. It is stated that 14,000 more in Europe aie waiting for transportation to New York. The New York society has little difficulty in securing employment for those of the exiles who are skilled mechanics and laborers, but those who have no mechanical vocation, constituting the bulk of the immigrants, are not so easily disposed of. The movement of Hebrews from Russia is going on under the direction of a Hebrew association in Paris, and there is some reason for believing that the only duty this society allots to itself is that of shipping the exiles without means to this country in the hope that they will be taken care of in some way or other.
PATRICK SHANNON.
A large portion of space in to-day's paper is devoted to the answer and cross bill of certain bondsmen of Newton Rogers, other than those whose answer was printed last week, in the suit brought against him and his sureties by the State of Indiana, to recover the shortage in the ex-Treasurer's account. It is long, but it is an interesting contribution to the bi ography of Patrick Shannon, whom it is only necessary for the people of this County to know to loathe and to despise It rehearses the story of his black ingrati tude to Newton Rogers, on whose bounty he lived, or rather out of whose bounty and off of the money of the people of Vigo County he filled his pockets, already stuffed with money of the people made by a hideous and unholy raid on the treasury in the purchase by him of the E. & T. H. railroad stocks of Vigo County. A series of interrogatories are fired at him in this answer whioh, if he was a man of honor or had abide less thick than that of a rhinoceros, would so shame his sensibilities that he would sell out his plunder and leave this county for the far West, where ha is not known, as the creature who has done his unclean newspaper work for four years is about to do. If he would make restitution and confession he might tren have hopes ot appeasing the righteous wrath of Heaven.
The people of this county are launched on a sea of litigation. It will last for weeks and it will cost the people of this county much money, for it must be understood that the courts, including the juries, bailiff's ctc. etc., are all paid out of the Treasury. But it will cost the unfortunate citizens, who are on the bond of Newton Rogers with Patrick Shannon, a very great deal of money. That he is on the bond with them has brought about all this trouble and expense. We are only saying what everyone of those bondsmen will probably enthusiastically decrare, viz: rather than go on the bond of any man with Patrick Shannon as a fellow bondsmen they would prefer to be looked up in the pest Louse full of smallpox patients. ••i*
This bond matter was all but settled once. Mr. Rogers was to pay over all his money on deposit anywhere. He was to make over to them all his assets. The bondsmen then as a whole, and acting with Mr. Rogers, were to borrow an amount of money equal the shortage in his accounts and he was to settle in full and at once with his successor, Treasurer Ray. During the ensuing months his assets were to be converted into sash and applied on the note. The deficiency then found to exist, and which would probably not have exceeded four or five thousand dollars and possibly have been nothing, would have been paid by the bondsmen and would not have amounted to more than one or two hundred dollars apiece. There would have been no expense about this, no trouble of any kind, and no expensive litigation. To this every one agreed, Patrick Shannon ineluded, *'i- v.,
But there was a misunderstanding after all. The bondsmen knew that Mr. Rogers had $2,502 in Shannon's bank, for Mr. Rogers told them so, and the fii*t step in the settlement was the application of that sum to the shortage. Shannon also knew there was $2,502 of County funds, or funds of Newton Rogers (this point is a question of law) in his bank. But he thought Mr. Rogers was as dishonest as himself and had entered into a secret and corrupt understanding with him whereby the other bondsmen were to be chiseled out of that amount. He agreed to the plan of settlement proposed thinking that a check for only $502, would be drawn on his bank, and that the $2,000 of which no one, as he supposed, but himself and Rogers knew, would be left there in his pocket, and to the end that, while the shortage of Mr. Rogers was increased by that amount and the other bondsmen would be compelled to make it good out of their pockets, he would make money out of the transaction.
His reason for this was probably that he had been given the use of $10,000 of county funds for two years atv 5% per cent., and of $10,000 for two years at 4 per cent, and of a deposit probably averaging over $15,000 and maybe as much aa $20,000 for four years for nothing. He got to thinking that the money that was in everybody's pockets and the blood that flowed ill everybody's veins was his. But (hough he had duped and deceived an^

ridden Hewtan Rogers to

death, he reckoned without

host when
he thought he would enter into

ate scheme of dishonesty. The check tor all the money he had on deposit in Shannon's bank was drawn by Mr. Rogers and given to Treasurer Ray, who receipted for it, nobody dreaming that Shannon would dare to keep in his own possession $2,000 of money so clearly not bis own. But they did Jnot know Shannon. His miserly heart clung to that money. He liked it all Ute more because it was not his. He refused to pay the check. And by his refusal, though it will not enable him in the end to keep the money, he has launched this community into a sea of expensive legislation he has fairly clogged the courts he has subjected the county to a world of trouble and expense.
But, thank Heaven! at the end of all this trouble we see the total wreck of this hideous apology for a man. We seo him with his claws cut and his fangs drawn
That the jury found a verdict of guilty as promptly as it did is a matter of congratulation. It was a most foul and unnatural murder,and the miserable miscreant richly deserves the hanging which now seems likely to be accorded him. For the promptness displayed by the twelve unhappy men who have been compelled to devote two months of their time to the service of Nemesis, a great people, who have likewise been perturbed by the same cause, are truly grateful. No other ending of the case would have been possible under the circumstances, if twelve sensible men were on the jury, but our American method of selecting juries is so peculiar that there is always a measure of doubt concerning what the finding will be even in the clearest cases.
There will be people who will say that the verdict of the jury is a vindication of the course pursued by Judge Cox—that he acted wisely in giving the prisoner ample freedom for utterance, plenty of rope, as it were, to bang himself with. To the GAZTTE this view seems utterly pernicious. A most diabolical murder was committed by a worthless vagabond whose whole career was that of a deadbeat and rascal. There ought never to have been the slightest doubt about his ripeness for the gallows, and he should have been in his grave long before this.
There has been altogether to much time spent on the trial and too much money expended. His life never was of any value to the country. He always was a parasite living on the labor of others—a dead-beat who claimed a seat at the feast of life without any contribution of his labor And to settle whether he should I* locked up for life a perpetual charge on tbe world, or hangpd, and «o put out of the way forever of killing other citizens more money has been expended than ten families of hard working people could accumulate in a life time of honest toil.
Medical experts have been summoned from all over the county at great expense to the government to examine this fellow, who committed a hideous crime,, to see whether or not he ought not to become a perpetual charge on the people of these United States. They were summoned, so to speak, to his bedside to save his life, and all the while men and woman, honest,

hard-working men and women all over the land have died by thousands for lack of sufficient nr proper medical attention, for lack of proper food and nourishment and medicine. More money has been fool ed away on this worthless vagabond than was needed to administer to the wants of our poor stricken President whom the pistol of this miscreant sent, in the zenith of his power and usefulness, to an untimely grave.
This sort of thing seems to the GAZETTX to be an outrage. It seems an outrage to be careful, as we are and must be is order not to bankrupt ourselves, in the dispensing of charity needed to perpetrate the lives of useful and honest folks who are dying every day and all around us, and then tear down the daora of the Treasury and become wildly profligate in ransacking the earth for all the luxuries of medical experts and witnesses from
He will never be able to scratch or poison little bigger than it is on the other, or if this community again, and a merciful providence, discovering the mistake made in his creation, has seen that no one with the curse of his paternity shall afflict this earth when he is goue.
This man is now an editor. All along he has owned three-fourths of a vile weekly paper here called the Ledger. He is now leit in sole control. It is his. Heretofore he has hid in the dark. It has defended him as if it was disinter, ested. All along he has owned threefourths of it and its defence of him was his own detence. He now is in charge of it entirely. Let the citizens of this County, he has plundered, take heed how they contribute to his maintainance by taking the paper. Let the business men be careful how they give it support by their act" vertisements and particularly how, by permitting their names to appear in its columns, they give it a qualified indorsement. It can be left a dead weight on his hands by the people refusing altogether to take it and by the merchants of Terre Haute refusing to let their names or their businesses appear in its tainted columns.
THE QUITEAU TRIAL AND VERDICT. For nearly two months twelve poor men of the District ot Columbia have been listening to the most outrageous trial on record. In all the annals of criminal jurisprudeuce in this country no such spectacle has been witnessed as that which has daily transpired in the court room presided over by Judge Cox. A latitude has been given to the criminal at the bar which is happily without precedent. It is to be hoped that it will not become, as there is abundant reason to fear it will, the fruitful parent of unnumbered exhibitions of the same kind on the part of murderers brought] into court.
he didn't act peculiarly once before in trying to kill his sister. What we need, and we need it now and beeu'appomtod' need it badly, is an economical and expeditious way of punishing'crime—so that a community which has suffered the loss of a useful citizen shall not have added to the burdens it must bear an enormous expenditure in a fool's search after and in answer to all the cracked-brained theories that professional defenders of crime may ?volve from the cavernous depths of thei$ inner confl2ioHd8G83.
If Guiteau had died at any period in bis worthless life since his birth, this country would have been tbe richer and better for it. Had he been sick or in want he would have been permitted to dio in a garret or maybe he would have have been sent to some hospital or poor farm and, at an expense of twenty or thirty dollars, have been fed, cared for, nursed and buried, had he died. He oommits a heinous crime as the crowning achievement of his vagabondage and at once he becomes the most expensive individual to the country of any man in the whole land. No man is paid for large and intelligent and conscientious and exalted service in behalf of tbe United States half what this fellow costs before his neck can be broken in accordance with our deformed forms of law. WJiat we need is to have some intelligent revision of our criminal code.
As to the daily exhibition of himself in court, his vile outpourings on every conceivable subject and against everybody, his interruption of the counsel, his villification of the witnesses, his parade of his correspondence, his writing of autographs, his opening of his mail, his reading of the papers, his receptions in the court room and at the jail, his7, body-guard, his two breakfasts, bis Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, his opening speeches and hia general emptying of all the scurrility that filled his vulgar brain—those things are matters for which,except those at the jail, Judge Cox is directly responsible. No verdict of guilty can wipe out that scandal. It has been and is inexcusable. His charge to the jury, which was both good law and good sense, is no justification of his turning his court into a brothel for two long months. The verdict does not justify it. If a man can'tbe hanged in this country for the cold-blooded murder of a good citizen, without {dragging the whole people for two months through the mire without a vile exhibition of filth without making a pandemonium of a court rodrn without laughter and jokes over the punishment of the criminal, the quicker we revise our criminal code of procedure or abolish it altogether the better. The most monstrous outrage ever perpetrated is this trial, and tbe verdict does not justffy or palliate its offensive-
