TBACHtSSTHr NPAMSH L,AKCil'AKThe United State of America have become

the cynosure on which the eyes of the worldre turned. Our marvelous resources and

extraordinary progress, the geniuB of ourKtitutions, which guarantees the largest civiland religious liberty, are tliernes on

which the people of Europe Jove todwell. Tlie late civil war betweenthe States, the subsequent sectionalhatreds and the anarchy and discord engendered by the reconstruction acts gave strengthto the monarchical government of EuropeKing, dtspota and tyrants rejoiced at thecivil war and iU accompanying strifeThese were held op as the failure of

another republic, and as evidence thatthe people could only be ruled by thedespotic power of royalty and kingcraftXiut time brings its revenges as well sbits changes. The usurpers are trem-bling upon their thrones, while the UnitedStates government never was so strong. In-

deed, the late civil war and the discords whichit entailed upon the country have demonstrat-

ed the indestructibility of the republic. Asthe broken bone is made stronger when firm-

ly set, so has the United States governmentbeen made stronger ly the blood which hasbeen shed to cement it into an indivisible re-

public. The clouds which once shroudedthis asylum for the oppressed have givenplace to the bright sunlight of peace andprosperity, and the people of Europe havecaught the spirit of our institution. Indeed,a love of America has infused itself into thecivilized world, and especially has it touchedthe philosophy of Germany. As showing thegrowing admiration of the whole of Europewe have only to refer to two facts the con-

stant stream of immigration landing on ourchores, and to the more significant fact of thegeneral desire in Europe to have the Eng-lish language taught in the public schools.The desire to become acquainted with the his-

tory of our people, and the expectation ofsome day immigrating to America, havecaused the people of continental Europe to be I

language. The consequence is that nearlyevery foreigner who now arrives at our sea-

ports can speak our language with easeand fluency. In former days the foreignerhad to learn our language by associationwith the people, which was a great draw-back to his immediate success. But now heoomes lu onr midst familiar with our historyand our language, and is ready armed andequipped for the battle to be fought in hisnew home. ..The same reasons have createda desire in America to learn the Spanishlanguage. It is plain to be seen that at nodistant day Mexico will become an integralpart of the United States. Our people andour government may disclaim any desire forthe conquest and annexation of Mexico to'he United States. But the fruit must beplucked as soon as it is ripe; and the indica-tions are that the Mexican people willgladly nail tne cnange, as they aretired of revolutions and want justsuch a stable government as they willsecure by following the example of Texas.Even if Mexico should remain a permanentrepublic, she is to be our nearest neighbor,and as the intercourse between the two na-

tions is to become cardial and intimate, thesame motives which induce the people ofEurope to learn the English language willinduce the people of the United States toItecome familiar with the Spanish languageIndeed, it is now urged by the press in va-

rious sections that Spanish instructors beemployed in all the high tchools in theUnited States. Ia view of the future rela-tions that will inevitably subsist between thepeople of Mexico and the United States,there is more to be gained by learning Span-ish than auy other foreign language. Nearlya dcr:n American railroads are penetratingthe republic of Mexico. The field of efl'ortfor future generations of Americans will beamong what are now Spanish-speakin- g

races. The region between our southernboundary and the deserts of Patagoniacontains now more than forty millionsof people who nearly all speak the Spanishlanguage. It ia from those countries thatthe best trade is to come; it is in that regionthat the men of the Lmted States are tobuild and operate railroads, open andwork mines, subdue forests, plant fields, and,in' short, find occupations. To succeed, thefirst requisite is to be able to talk with andto correspond with the people. Our rail-roads have struck the soil of Mexico, andan immense force is rapidly pushing themtoward the capital of Mexico. All can seewhat an advantage a man would hive therer.ow who could read and write boththe English and Spanish language. Withthem an American boy or youngman seeking fortune would have a capi-

tal to commence business on. With theexception of the growth of sugar and tobacco,Mexico can never become our rival in anybranch of trade. She produces a largeamount of raw material of various kind,but she has neither the coal nor the water-pow- er

to permit of her manufacturing them.In those things constituting the main ele-

ments of our wealth she can in no sensecompete with us. Her soil is of incalculablefertility, but Iter climate is such that graincan only be raised to any extent by irriga-

tion. The precious metals constitute muchthe larger part of her export trade, and thedeposits, especially of silver, are per-

haps as rich as amy in the world ; but shebaa neither the capital, nor skilled labor,nor enterprise, nor mining intelligence suf-

ficient to develop them. Iron ore of excel-

lent quality ia abundant, but, in the absenceof fuel, can only be worked to a limited ex-

tent. In fact, we have no cause to fearMexican rivalry In any of our lead-

ing industries, except, as we havestated, in the production of sugar and to-

bacco. The district of country suitable forthe growth of the former is more extendedthan ours. The climate also is better, andit is probable that when Mexico is morefully developed and her labor system betterorganized, her sugar crop will be largely inexcess of onr own products. In the quantity

f tobacco which Mexico will be able to pro-

duce, it is believed she can never eqnalus. It is, however, far superior to oursin flavor. It equals that of Cuba, and asvet is raised in a comparatively .mall

quantity. The lands suitable for its growth,however, are much larger in extent thant'uoe now cultivated, and its production if,therefore, susceptible of considerable in-

crease. Kor the future the intercourse be-

tween tlie United Slates and Mexico will bei:iot cordial and intimate, ia less than tenears tlicre will be excurion parties from

ail parts of the United States to the City ofMexico, thereore we suggest that both in asicial and commercial point of view theSpanish language should be taught in ourl.igh schooVs.

MONOPOI.T Tr.KSDlOHaUt SETKE.The tarifl h?s become one of the prime

i ti ons of the day, and the time has ar-- rvi 'i when all those who are opposed to mo-

nopoly and mischievous interference withthe laws of trade should advocate, stronglyand persivtringly, the just principles of fairend free exchange of commodities. .Naturec .pos"s protection; one land grows wheat,another coffee; one apples, another oranges;one portion of the country produces fish, an-

other potatoes, and that each Bhould ex-

change products with each other is plainlyintimated in the very constitution of things.In countries enjoying constitutional liberty,Ireolou of exchange is the right of the citizen. Kvery American has a right to buywhere he can buy cheapest and at 11 where hecan sell dearest, and interference with thatright is an act of injustice. Thatviolation of sound national policy and cor-

rect trade principle is involved in the meas-

ures of the monopolist who for a blindfalsely call their system protection is shownby the manner in which they change thebasis on which they ground monopoly to suitcircumstance. At the first introduction ofthe eyi-te- the plea was suspend foreigncompetition until we can establish onr buxi-nr- ss

and surmount the difficulties incident toall new undertakings; then, when we havegot into good running condition, we cana' and on the ime level as the farmer withhis wheat and the merchant with his goods.Having obtained exemption from competi-tion which constitutes monopoly the recipients of the nation's bounty continue toobject to standing on tlie ordinary groundoi commercial dealing, and demand apermanent monopoly on the plea thatsuch vast and imporlaut interestsas they have created ought to be freed fromthe competition that the wheat grower andthe cotton planter is subjected to. If temporary relief for first efforts only was required,then the application for monopoly now isfraudulent. If relief is really wanted now,then the declarations made at the beginning, asa reason for according monopolistic privilegeswere false, and the ccuntry is under no obligation to continue what it should never havebegun. If a system that pays double pricesfor an article, not because it is better or moreva'uable, but merely because it wjb madewitbin the boundaries of the country, is it-

self a correct and sound one. then it is.broadly speaking, always Bound and correct;correct for State against State, citv againstcity, household against household. The manwho refuses to employ his $1500 a year man-ager to mend his broken windows, so that allthe work on the house may be done on thepremises, rather than employ a man outrideof his establishment whose services are worthonly StiOO a year, is a protester, by his ac-

tions, against monopoly. The city that doesnot make the piping for its own waterworks,but buys it from makers in another city, is aprotester against the monopoly of protection.The State that buys iron puddled in Penn-sylvania instead of obtaining the ore andpuddling it for itself, is protesting againstthe monopoly of protection as much as acountry would that should give employmentto glaziers, builders, coal-mine- and laborers by growing its own pineapples underglass rather than buy them from the WestIndies. Undr ths system of monopoly, as jat present carrieu oui, ior juassacnuseiui toJ., from .a,juu, USKentucky ,ext re9olotio

mcnt of protection duties is right, but ifthe fate of war had put the twoStates under different governments itwould have been wrong. This is sayingthat the results of climate should beadapted to law,' not law to the results of na-

ture's action. Business men assert and actupon the principle of producing and trans-porting their merchandise and manufacturesas cheaply ai possible; for this they buildrailroads, improve rivers, construct docks,Dridge streams, invent labor-savin- g machinery, and do innumerable other things,but the monopolist runs counter to all this,and lays duties upon goods uutte litem dear.If it is a correct rule in trade to produce atthe lowest possible expense, then it is a falseprinciple that applies a tax to make certainkinds of merchandise unnecessarily dear.In simple terms, to employ the time oneconldgain a dollar in to make an article that hecan buy for fifty cents, merely because becan say the article was made at home, is ab-

surd, and contradicts the clearest principlesof trade. It is equally wrong if fifty ofhis neighbors do the same thing; it is just thesame violation of common sense and correctprinciple if the whole city in which he livesdo the same. It is no less an absi rd, fal:and incorrect system of action when the samething is done by the whole country withinwhich that city is situated. The coat thatcosts ten dollars in New York can be boughtfor six in London, and by this system of mo-

nopoly the keen, quick and rational Ameri-can people is doing just what the skilled en-

graver, who makes five dollars a day, wouldbe doing if he staid at home to dig his gar-den, to do which he could hire a man attwo dollars and two and a half dol-

lars a day. The closest analysis, the clearest reason, the keenest perception, the simplest use of commoii sense, shows the systemof monojHjly, miscalled protectian, to be falseand bad, and now is ths time for all whoknow this to proclaim their convictions, toinsist upon Congress commencing a audgradual retreat from the vicious policy ofmonopoly, until the duties upon importedgoods shall be levied for simply revenue pur-poses, as the constitution of the country requires, thus restoring to the American citi-

zen a right of which he ought never to havebeen deprived the right to buy where hecan buy cheapest, and sell where he can selldearest.

Hare Not Had Fair aaTs

Speech A. Docnraeat hkh AloneShould Han; Him.

WasIiixgtuN, January 16. As soon athe court was formally opened Scoville beganhU address to the jury by confessing his

with the modes of practice incriminal caes. All the defense asked forwas a fair, can-lid- , impartial weighing of theevidence by fair and candid men. Counselwould attempt no oratory, because he wastKit equal to it, and because he would not doit if he could, lis would addrese hiam!fimply to the reason, judgment and intellect

of the jury. Oratory, eloquence and appealsto the pastdons he would leave for counselwho would follow him (Judge Porter), andhe desired to warn them that on theefforts ot learned counsel (Judge Porter) to expound the law or explaineviuence ne would inevitably seek toinfluence them through their emotions; totouch their hearts and sway their sympathies,rather than to convince their judgment, Ido nrt care to complain, although I do notthink, as counsel in the conduct of this case,1 have been treated with fairness. Personally. I care nothing for it; but when it

the ca.-- in which my efforts arethen I must complain. I hold in my

hand an indictment for conspiracy which X

have framed in my own mind, and the objectof this conspiracy was to hang the prisoner."

Scoville then proceeded to name the con-spirators; the district attorney, Judge Por-ter, Mr. Davidge, and five of the governmentexp?rts, namely : Drs. (iray, Hamilton, Kemp-ste- r,

and Wooster. The count-of this in lictment, twenty in number, are:''First, they have perverted the law in thisca.e."CLville, in illustration or support of thiscount, alluded to the introduction by JudgePorter of the decision of Judge Davis, liesaid: "The counsel upon the other side

repudiated the sueereation thatJudge Davis sat with Card ox a or Barnard,but 1 have yet to learn of either of themever having committed a more reprehensibleact than that of Judge Davis." Scovillewarmed up with the subject and denouncedin severe language the extra judicial act ofJudge Davis: ''Had a newepaper been guiltyof such a bold-face- d attempt to influence adecision in a trending cause the editor wouldhave been subject to arrest for contempt"

JuJge Porter I3n't let us turn thiscourt-roo- intu a

Sxivtlle rcsumtd, but was soon interruptedby Davidge, who, with some emphasis-- , said:"Oh, no, Scoville; that's not so."

Scoville You may interrupt me as muchas you p!eaxe, but I shall not be deterred fromsaying just what I brlieve to be true.

Davidge Well, well, I'll not interrupt youagain, say what you may.

OuiUati Thai's right, Davidge; keepquiet. You talked for two days, and I didn'tsay anything either. Give somebody else ashow.

Scoville continued: "When Judge Porterconies btfore this jury and undertakes topervert evidence I shall not quiet him as Idid with Da ridge, but I shall stop him.

Guiteau S- shall I.Scoville I shall stop him and I shall cor-

rect him, if 1 find he ia misstating evidence.titiileau Nevermind; I'll attend to him.Judge Porter There will be two Gui-teau- s,

then, to attend to me.The prosecution state that if the prisoner

knew the act was wrong on July 2J, then heshould hang. Now, this is not by any meansthe whfile of it, or a correct statement of the1 1 w. Tne Court has added, in substance, asfollows: "Yet, if in this act he was over-powered by consciousness coming throughhU disead mind that what he was dointrwas neceS5ry for the good of the country.am wan especially approvea Dy Crou, tneayou cannot convict bun ot murder. Con-tinuing. Scoville said: "The second count ir.

the indict tient is perversion of t:stimonv,'and he proceeded to sustain the count byreading Irotn JJavidgt 'a speecn, and com paring it with the testimony.

"Oh, that's for money," called out Guiteau;he is paid lor that: he don t b?lieve it.Scoville contended that the facts were per

verted, and particularly the evidence as tothe immorality of the prisoner. The onlyallegation that will hold against him is thatot adultery.

Guiteau shouted out: How many innocent people are in the court-roo- m ' and beadded, "uot one. A moment later he calledout: "I don't want to libel Crist i an people,but 1 want the record straight. 1 jay hightoned Christian men and women are virtu-ous, but the zna.s cf mankind are not. D?tthat go on record.

As Snovi'leTJused Guiteau raised a laughby calling out: "Ain't that a pretty goodplace to stop, Scoville? It's most 12 :'S0; let'shave recess."

Iv;cet-- was then taken for thirty minutes.Judge Porter slated that he would be uh-ab- l,

owing to the condition of his health,to remain this afternoon, but he desired Sco-ville not to Bb5t tin for that reason from say-ing anything he desired to say.

Evening feea&lou.After recess Scoville proceeded to poh.t

out to the jury what he termed "perversionof evidence" by Davidge,

Judge Porter's seat was vacant, while theattorney indicated by his appearance

that he wished his was also.Scoville having intimated that he desired

to criticise the conduct of the district-attorne- y

as the chief partner in this wicked con-sp- ir

cy, as alleged by him, to han the pris-oner, but would not do bo in his absence, ashe was not in the habit of saying things be-

hind one's back, Colonel Cork hill was sentfor by his brother counsel and he reluc antlycame into court, abandoning the rest he wasseeking. "I haven't," he said, "the slightestinterest in anything he may eay against me.However I will come in and give him an op-portunity to abuse me."

Scoville dwelt at great length upon whatDividge deemed an immaterial matter, andthe latter remarked on the disposition ofcouuscl to consume time needlessly.

Scoville reiterated that he did not proposeto leave matters of fact which wire

the record before the jury willfullyperverted or enveloped in artificial obscurity.

(iuiteau That's right; stand by the rc-cr-

Dividge hid r read my speech.It is published in all the leading psiiers cfAm'-ricn- , and takes up a whole page.

Scoville attacked the thtory of the prose-cution, that i: was the prisoner's own innateor acquired depravity that naturally led upto the killing of the President, and discussedat ftcme length the evidence introduced bythem to nhow instances of the prisoner'snjeanns and depravity. "This evidence,"said Scoville, ''has in almost every instancebeen perverted." He then alluded to theevidence relative to the prisoner obtainingmoney from the Kev. Dr. McArthurand giv-ing his note for it.

Guiteau observed, it M. t. Arthur willsend his note, Pi! cah it now."

Scoville continued: "Thpy brought a manhere at an expense of $150 to show themoral turpitude of tho prisoner, and whatwas the etl'ert of his evidence?"

Guiteau To prove that I pay my debts.Scoville lie testified that Guiteau paid

him "0 for a deek just what he contractedto pay him and that's all there was in his.testimony to show moral turpitude.

Scoville reviewed the incident of Guiteau'sgetting English out of jail in New York.The prosecution laid great stress upon thisincident as showing the rascality of the pris-oner, but in his (covilles) opinion Guiteauearned his money in this case, and there wasnothing whatever in the transaction to his(Guiteau's) discredit.

The prisoner tried once or twice, andfinally succeeded in making himself heard.He said, in relation to this incident: "Iwant to say, just here, the reason I had somuch trouble in getting Knglndi out of jailwas that he was a fraud, and Winston andthe Mutual Life were dead against him anddid not want him to gft out of jail. I hadall the money of the Mutual Life to workagainst in the sherid's ehVe, and I neverwou d have gotten him off if I had not hungt the esse like a dog to a piece of meat.That's the way I do when I start on any-thing."

Scoville continued: "Counsel parade herethe debts owed by the prisoner, and at tempto make much of them in this chain theyare weaving."

Guiteau I owe about $1000, and I sup-pose that ought to hang m man. If thesepeople will send in their bills now, I'll givethem checks for them and get them oat ofthe way, I suppose. I've got Fome moneynw. I ll get rid of these people, acd thenI won't owe anybody.

Scoville then alluded to the incident swornto by Shaw, of Guiteau's pawning a worth-less watch for $25.

Guiteau shouted : "Oh, you better stopon fcnaw i mean," anj aa-de- d,

"That was meant for a pun, but theydon't seem to see it."

SoviUe denounced the witness Shaw. Hebelieved that he had deliberately perjuredhimself in this case, as also had his

little Jew clerk, who came downhere to help Shaw out.

Gnlteaa This whole testimony of Shaw isfale, and no decent man could believe it foran instant.

As court was about to adjourn Guiteau

called out: "I de4re your Honor to readmy speech so tl:at I can discuss itwith yon

I am well aatUried with tne Deity's conductof this case thus fir, and I have no doubt He wiltcontinue to father it to the end. Nothing in thepolitical situtinn latt spring justified the presi-dent's reniov!. The breach in the Republicanpany was then widening week bv week, and Ilorww civil war. The Lord wanted to prevent arepetition of this desolation, and inspired me tohh'uu; His will. Why did lie inspire me 1u e

to some one e!e? I had brains andnerve, probably, to do His work. The Lord doesnot employ incompetent ierons to serve Him.He nses the best material lie can find. I, of allthe world, was

THF ONLY MANwho had authority fom Deity to do it. Withoutthe Ieity' pressure I never should have nought toremove the president. Tuia pressure destroyedmy free agency. The Deity compelled me to dothe act, jut as the highwayman compels a man toKive hi iu money after placing a pistol at his vic-tim's head. This irresistible pressure to removethe president wo on me thirty days, and it neverleft me when awake. It haunted me day andniKht. At bust an opportunity came, and I shothim. As soon as I tire J the hhot the inspiration wasworked off, and T felt immensely relieved. 1

I amesfiecially pleased with his conciliatory spirit andwisdom toward thaopposition. It is exactly whatI him to do unite the factions of the Re-publican party, to the end that t lie nation may behappv and prosperous. In short, everybody, po-litically, is happy, save a few crank, aud they willprobably bo happy soon.
