GUILTY OF THE CBIIE.
THE VEEDICT RENDERED IN
THE GUITEAU CASE.
Judge Cox Delivers His Charge
And the Jury Finds Him
Guilty of Murder Etc-
The jury has done its doty with
promptness and fidelity. Gui
teau is guilty of murder. Within
a few weeks the jabbering ego
list, who resorted to assassina
tion as a means of notoriety, will
pass from the gallows to the
grave, covered with the odium
and maledictions of his fellow
men. The trial has been a long
and perplexing one—weary to
the people who were impatient
of the indulgence given the pris
oner, and perplexing to the Judge
who saw no means of silencing
him except such as would have
given ground for anew trial.
The case was without parallel in
its developments. But now that
a decision has been reached, it is
felt that Judge'Oox pursued the
only satisfactory course, since it
has given the wretch all his legal
rights, and at the same time se
cured his conviction.
After the jury had boen out
about twenty minutes, a recess
was taken until 5:30, and in ten
minutes afterward tbe jury called
to the bailiff that they were ready
with a verdict. They were oblig
ed to await tbe return of Judge
vjox.
Promptly on time the judge
called the court to order and a
verdict was rendered of guilty.
Mr. Scoville demanded a poll
of the jury, which was granted
and each responded “Guilty,” as
his name was called. As the last
man answered Guiteau shrieked,
“My blood will be upon the head
of that jury, don’t you forget it ”
Again Guiteau who from the
moment .fudge Cox began the
delivery of his charge, had drop
ped completely his air of flippant
arogance, and sat with rigid feu
tnres.
Judge Cox then turned to the
jury and said : Gentlemen of the
jury, 1 cannot express too many
thanks for the manner in which
yon have discharged your duty.
You irave richly merited the
thanks of your countrymen, and
with thanks, gentlemen of the
jury, i dismiss you.”
The court then adjourned.—
Atlanta Constitution.
Gartreli the Man.
Free Press. J
There is an exist in" and grow
ing sentiment, that Gen. Lucius
J. Gartreli shall be the next Gov
ernor ol Georgia. The independ
ents of Georgia propose to try
and furnish the next Governor of
this State. Gen, Gartreli has the
manhood to say that he proposes
to submit his claim and qualifica
tion to and for that high and hon
orable position to the voters of
Georgia. In the short, we ex
pect Gen. Gartreli to be the in
dependent candidate for Gover
nor and the Free Press will sus
tain him in race to the best
of its ability and influence. That
he is well qualified no one can
doubt. He has taken but little
active interest in politics, since
the war, except as a liberal gen
tleman, every body knows. Our
opinion is that he should run.
We are in favor of any movement
that will defeat the Kirkwood
mutual admiration society, the
the most stupendous .political
fraud ever grafted upon Georgia
politics.—Gartreli can whip that
out and wipe it out of existence.
He can assail the so-called great
triumvirate by which the United
States Senatorship of Georgia
was bartered for a consideration,
a bargain no one can successful-
Jy refute on the stump or in
print. We now sail in for Gar
trell for Governor. We do so
“without money or reward or the
hope thereof.

To the People of Georgia.
Booms of the State Temperance)
Executive Committee.)
Atlanta, Ga., January 14, ISS2.
While there exists among tem
perance people a difference of
ooinion as to the legislation
needed to do away entirely with
the evils of intemperance in
Georgia, yet, all good people
agree that dram shops are unmit
igated evils. Hence we appeal
to the people of Georgia of all
races, creeds and politics, to unite
with us in an oirnest and deter
mined effort to PREVENT THE LI
censing of these temptations to
DRUNKENNESS AND CRIME.
We appeal to all good citizens,
especially the Christian people
of Georgia, to close up these sa
loons which do no good, but on
the contrary, are factories for
the manufacture of drunkards.
Bishop Beckwith, of Georgia,
recently said that “the fires of
intoxication would soon become
exhausted for want of fuel, if we
could only SAVE THE CHIL
DREN.’’
LET US ABOLISH THESE dram BHOPS
and save the children of Georgia
from Ihe greatest temptation to
evil they have to encounter in
this world.
Gambling saloons are not li
censed by law, and drinking sa
loons ought, not to be. If they
are carried on, let it be in viola
tion to law,
NOT WITH LEGAL SANCTION.
In localities where these sa
loons can not be closed up, let us
advocate Ihe enactment of laws
reqiring dram shops to be located
on public thoroughfares; to have
no back or side entrance, and no
screen, but glass doors, and only
20feet deep and on a level with
the ground, and to close up at
suu-down. Then any one passing
can see whether or not liquor is
being sold to boys in violation of
law.
We urge upon friends of this
reform to organize in every
county for the work; appoint
county executive committees
and report to the Secretary of
this committee, Atlanta, Georgia.
While it is unnecessary to form
a separate political parly, to se
cure this great moral reform, we
think this course best adapted to
secure united and harmonious
action throughout the State.

The Sun.
NEW YORK, 1882.
The Sun for 1882 will make its fif
teenth annual revolution under ihe
present, management, shinning, as al
ways, for big and little, mean and gn
cious, contented and unhappy, R-pub
lican and Dem, erat, d> praved iful
virtuous intel.igeut and obtuse. The
Sun’s baht is for mankind and woman
knd of every sort; but its genial
warmth is for the good, while it pours
hot discomfort on the bhs ering backs
of the persstently wicked.
The Sun of 1868 was a newspap r
of a n' w kind. It discarded many of
the forms, arid a multitude of the su
perfiuous words ar.d phra-es of ancient
j'lurnali.-m. It undertook to report in
a fresh, succinct, unconventional way
all the news of the world, omitting no
event of human interest, and comment
ing upon affairs wi h the fearl. seness
of aba .lute independence. The success
of th s experiment was the ruccoss of
The Sun. It effected a permanent
change in the stylo of American news
I'api rs. Every important journal es
tablished in this country in the dozen
years past has been modelled after
The Sun. Every important journal
already existing has been modifies and
betiered by the force of The Sun’s ex
ample.
The Sun of 1882 will be the same
outspoken, truth telling, aud interest
ing newspaper.
By a liberal use of the means which
an abundant prosperity affords, we shall
make it better than ever before.
We shall print all the news, putting it
into reliable shape, and measuring its
importance, n..t by ihe traditional
yardstick, but by its real interest to the
people. Distance from Printing House
Square is not ihe fir-t eci.di ion with
Jhe Sun. Whenever anything hap
pen worth reporting we get the par
ticulars, whether it happens in Brook
lyn or in Bokhara.
In polities we have decided opinions;
and are accnstormd to express them in
language that can be und. rstood. We
say what we think ab- nt ra n and
eV' nts. 1 hat habit is ihe oniy secret
of The Puji’s poli ical course.
The Weekly Sun gath- rs intoeight
pages the best matter of ihe soven dai
ly issues. An Agricultural Depart
ment of unequal), and merit, full market
repous, and a liberal proportion of lit
erary, scientific, and dom< sic intelli
gence complete Ihe Weekly Sun,
and make it the best newspaper fur the
farmer s household that was ever print
ed.
Who does not know and read and
like The Sunday Sun, each number of
which is a Golcondaof interesting lit
erature, with the best poetry of the
day, prose every line worth reading,
news, humor—matter enough to fill a
go d->ized book, and infinitely more
varied and entertaining than any book,
big or little ?
