The amiable and truth loving disposition ■of Postmaster-General Howe, if not bis fit ness for the position he is to occupy, is clear ly discernible in his Chicago interview. To the question: “Are sou familiar with the history of the starroute prosecutions ?” He answered: “Not at all. 1 have paid no attention to the reports of the coses as they have run through the papers." And again: “My family consists solely of two married daughters. While in the Senate I made my homo with one of them—Mrs. Totten—and I suppose I shall find it convenient to es tablish myself with her while I remain in the cabinet. Her husband is Major Totten, who is conn°el for tbo defense in the so- called star route cases,” Major Totten will be able to inform his father-in-law, the Postmaster-General, about the “so called star route cases," and in his fallow mind the attorney of Brady and associates may be carofnl to plant seeds which would not grow in James’ soil.

His honor will rale upon them Saturday morning Immediate ly after the opening of court. Davidge will then make the opening argument for the prosecution, which will probably oc cupy the entire day. Scoville will reply for the defense on Monday, and will be followed by Reed and Guiteau, who will be permitted to address the jury if he de sires to do so. Judge Porter will make the closing argument to the jury. Sco ville remaked this morning that he did not think the argument would consume more than four days. If this expectation is realized the case will probably go to the jury not later than Thursday next. Washington, January 5.—Senator Sewell, of New Jersey, has laid before President Arthur a letter from Fitz John Poiter to himself, calling attention to his appeal for vindication, and asking the good offices of Senator Sewell in the mat ter. With Porter’s letter Is one from Gen. Grant to the President, in which Grant says he has recently read carefully the testimony in the Porter courts of inquiry, and has given the matter much thought and careful consideration, and as a result has become convinced he has, for nine teen years, been doing injustice to a gallant, efficient soldier, and now feels it incumbent upon him to do all In his pow er to repair the injustice. Grant feels more strongly because, he says, daring the time lie was general of the army it lay in Ids power to procure for Porter the hear ing wLlch he only obtained at a later period, and while President it was at any time in liU power to have ordered such a hearing. Graut here goes on to say: “In justification for my injustice to General Porter, I can only state that shoitly after the war closed his defense was called to my attention, bat I read it in connection with a sketch of the held where his oflenses were said to have been committed which I now sec, since perfect maps have been made by the engineers of the department of the whole field, were totally incorrect as showing the position of the two armies. I had read it ill con nection with the statement on the other side against Porter, and I am afraid, pos sibly, with some little prejudice in the case, although General Porter was a man whom I personally knew and liked before, hut I gut the impression, with many others, that there was a half hearted supportof Gen. Pope iu his cam- laigns, and that Gen. Porter, while possi- ily not more guilty than others, happened to be placed in a position where lie could he made responsible for his indifference, and that the punishment was not a severe one for such an offense. I am now con vinced that he rendered faithful, efficient and intelligent service, aud the fact that he was retained In command of his corps for months after his offenses were said to have been committed is iu his favor. “What I would askin. General Porter’s behalf from ycu is that, if you can possi bly g've the time, that you give the sub ject the same study and thought that I have givon it, and then act as your Judg ment may dictate. But, feeliog that you will not have time for such an investiga tion (for it would take several days’ time) I would ask that the whole matter be re ferred to the Attorney-Ueneral for his ex amination and opinion. “Hoping that you will be able* to do this much for an officer who has suffered for nineteen years a punishment. that never should be inflicted upon any but the most guilty, I am very truly yours, “U. S. Grant.” Among the papers ^submitted is a letter from General Terry, who wa3 a member of the Schofield board of inquiry, in reply to one from Porter conveying thanks for his action as a member of that board, in which Terry says: “I write now to say that it is not thanks but pardon which I should ask from yon. For years I did you wrong in thought, and sometimes in speech. It is true that this was through ignorance, but I had no right to be so ig norant. I might have learned something, at least, of the truth, bad I diligently sought it. If you find anything in my ac tion as a member of the board wblcn you can accept as an atonement for the wrong which I did, I shall be more than grati fied. With great respect and Admiration, I am yours, most sincerely, “Alfkked H. Teiuiv, Major-General.” Cincinnati, January 0.-A Catletts burg, Kentucky, dispatch says that Judge Brown, fearing that a gieat crowd from Ashland woulu prevent a hearing of the cases of the Gibbons family murderers, ordered the steamer Mountain Girl to get ip’steam and take the prisoners to May3- i lie, Ky., for safe keeping. Owing to the difficulty of getting the prisoners on board, the sheriff put them on a ferry boat and started down the river.* A mob took possession of the steamer Mountain Girl and started in pursuit.

Neal, the Ashland murderers, guarded by a de tachment of the Maysvillc Guards milita ry company, 75 in number, provided with arms, touched here for coal at 5:30 p. ra. George Ellis, when interviewed, reiterated wliat he lias already confessed, not differing from what has been reported by the Associated Press. He still claims that Lis share in the murder was only that of an unwilling witness. The steamer Hudson, with the militia, met e Mountain Bay at Tiverton, twelve miles above here, and transferred the Maysville Guards to the MomStain Boy. The Mountain Girl, a mile or 'two at be rime, abandoned the pursuit on learning hind, the prisoners were guarded by the militia.

In it he rec ommends the adoption without unneces sary delay of measures which shall provide for the discharge of the public obligations upon the basis set forth in the act passed by the last General Assembly and known as the Riddlebergcr bill. Great misapprehension exists, lie says, as te the purpose of the people of Virginia in re gard to the final settlement ol all contro- As he understands the"views and will of the peo ple, they do not intend to repudiate auy ust obllgatiou,but to assume and pay that portion of the principal which is properly chargeable to the present State of Vir ginia, and to restore all classes of credi tors to a plane of equality. The true in debtedness of the State, he says, should be determined by com puting the full interest to the date of settlement from the period when Vir ginia lost control of and ceased to draw revenue from tbo territory embraced in West Virginia. Second, by crediting against the sum total of principal and in terest so obtained the acknowledged pay ments on both accounts made by Vir ginia since the partition ol her territory. to be due, no charge of repudiation can be laid at the door of the people of this com- ‘ monwealth. As to the rate of interest which can and should be paid on tbe prin cipal so ascertained and assumed, the Governor says all parties in the State are agreed that the present rate of taxation cannot be Increased, and that careful.esti mates establish tbe proposition that 3 per cent, fs the largest rate of interest that can be provided for with certainty. Tbe Governor continues: “We are supported in this conclusion not only by'the finan cial experience of many years, but also by the fast that tbe proposed interest is as great as the average rate paid by the debt or class of the world on public securities at the present day.” Oskaloosa, Iowa, January 6.—A ter rific explosion of 500 kegs of powder, the property of tbe American Powder Co., occurred yesterday afternoon.

Johnston: “To f/.e Editor of the Post—Sib: Wlien the article headed ‘General John ston’s Narrative’ appeared in tbe Phila delphia Press of December 18tb, I wrote to the editor that the conversation on which the narrative was evidently founded was not an interview, and the ar ticle was so inaccurate that I would not undertake to correct it. This was’ pub lished oy him promptly. As that article seems to be treated in the South as accu rate, and I am charged with baviug. accused Mr. Davis of appropriating the Confederate funds carried through North Carolina, I write to deny the charge. I did not use the language imputed to me. What 1 did say was that the President ought to have accounted for that money.' It is a well-known practice in this and all other civilized countries, that those hav ing the disposal of public funds shall ac count for them. What I said on that oc casion was in an accidental conversation with one whom I considered above the class of interviewers. Tlierefcre, I had no fear of the publication ol what I might say, and said a good deal that nothing could induce inc to say for publication, especially on the subject of the lands at Greensboro. That part of tbe conversa tion was in connection with tbe subject of an application, twice made by me, that part of that money should be paid to the army I then commanded in North Caro lina, which had received no real pay for many months.

When the House met at nooa to-day the number of spectators in the galleries wm unusually small, and tbe attendance of members evidently fell far short of a quorum. During tbe prayer and the read ing of tbe journal of the last day’s pro ceedings, however, a number of members entered, and, after exchanging New Year greetings with their colleagues, took tbelr seats, giving tbe chamber Us customary appearance of life aud bustle.

Pittins «f SmS Small-Pox Eradicated Fgy* 1 * ’ittino SmS Pox PrtwntaL Jleere pwrified aftd indulgence to announce that it is my pur pose at an early day to introduce for con sideration and action a proposition to change tbe method of selecting the com mittees. The VMt and diversified inter ests of tha country are all more or less af fected by Congressional legislation, and this legislation, as is well known, is almost exclusively controlled by tbe action of the committees. For this reason their formation assumes importance, and is invested with a respon sibility too great to rest In the hands of a single individual, however capable, hon est and patriotic such an individual may be. As now exercised it Is emphatically a one-man power, and such power is al ways dangerous and in conflict with tbe principles of republican government. It is our duty to see that it may not at some future period be used to tbe detriment cf tbo best interests of the people. And now as to the question of privilege: You have seen fit, sir, to assign me to three committees, namely, the second place on the foreign affairs, tbe second place on rales, and chairman of the committee on civil service reform. By the kindness and unwavering confidence of my constituents,' I have been for twelve years a member of this House, and I am now entering on my seventh term of sen-ice here. With two excep tions, there is not another Republican member who has thus long represented his people. During 'that time 1 have served as a member and m chairman of tbe committee on private land claims, m a member of the committee on ways and means and for ten years m a member of tbe committee ou foreign affairs—-a part ol such time as Its chairman. With one exception—possibly two—I am the only Republican member who at any time prior to this session has ever served m chairman of any committee of this House. In view of this fact I submit that" the Speaker in his recent action Iim none an injustice to me and my constituents. For this injustice there Is, .however, no rem edy. All that can be done is to protest against it, as I now do for myself and my constituents, and for reasons so apparent as not to require specification. I respect fully ask the House to excuse me from service as a member of the committee on rules.” The Speaker—“The chair does not utre deratand that it is necessary for him to vindicate himself by saying anything in reply. It must not, however, be inferred because the chair does not undertake to challenge any of the statements chaining him with injustice that tbe chair acqui esces in tbe views taken by the gentle man from Indiana.” Mr. Orth’s request was granted, and he was excused from further service on the committee ou rules. The regular order, being the call of the committees, was dispensed with. _ A resolution was ofleredby Mr. Gibson, of Louisiana, amending tbe rules Mto the committee on Mississippi levees. It gives the committee on Mississippi levees the power to originate appropriation bills relative to tbo improvement of tbe Missis sippi river. - Mr. Hewitt offered a resolution recltlui the fact that the Khedive of Egypt bai presented to the United States an obelisk known as “Cleopatra’s Needle,” and ten dering to his Highness tbe Khedive tbe thanks of the people of the United States for the gift, which only the oldest of na tions could make and the youngest could most highly prize. Adopted. A long and desultory discussion sprang up as to the power of members to intro duce bills through the petition box, in stead of presenting them in the open House, those holding the affirmative of the proposition making a strong point in showing that the practice of introducing bills in that maimer wonld result In a large saving of time, the opponents of the proposition calling attention to tbe dan ger there would.be of a wrong reference of bills. The discussion wm final) v closed with an expression of cpintyn from the chair that only to get a bill properly be fore a committee was to present it in the open House. The House, at 1:40, ad journed till Monday. Washington, January 0.—In the Sen ate, the President pro tem., Mr. Davis, a few minutes after the Mscmbling of the Senate, vacated the chair for the day to Mr. Garland. A number of resolntions were introduced and referred. Among them were the following: By Mr.Maxey, instructing the Secretary of the Interior to furnish the report, if any, of the survey of the United States and TexM Boundary Commission, made under the act of June i, 1858, and if no final report of said com mission wm made, lie will report that fact, together with maps, surveys and a report of tliC»work so far as it was prose cuted. He explained that the purpose of the act of 1658 wm to ascertain the true north Texas boundary; that is to My, what is the main Red river line Mlaid down on the Mellish map of January 1, 1818, by which the boundary line wm fixed between the United States and Mexico, under the treaty of 1828. Tbe work of the commission showed nothing definite on the point. TexM claimed the north fork and tbe Interior Department tbe sonth fork of the Red river to be the true Red river according to the Mellish map. Tho resolution wm adopted. By Mr. Jones, of Florida, calling on tbe Secretary of the Interior for information relating to tbe selection of swamp lands ciuse of the absence of Senators interest ed in them. The resolution of December 13th, of fered by Mr. Davis, of West Virginia, "re lating to pension frauds, calling for state ments of tbelr nature and character, what amount of arrears lias been paid, tbe number of cases added to the pension roll under the ’ alters act, etc., next came up. Some discussion ensued upon tbe amendment by Mr. Edmunds, striking out tbe direction to the Secretary of the Interior to report his opinion upon such legislation as be thought Advisable. Fi nally the resolution, as nullified by Mr. Edmunds’ amendment, wm adopted. The Seuate at 1:45 p. m. went into ex ecutive session, and at 1.50 adjourned un til Monday. ^ A Letter From Ex.poetmMter.GeM- oral Jams*. Washington, January 6.—The Presi dent sent to the Senate to-day tbe follow ing letter from the late PostmMter-Gen- eral wiUi regard to the responsibility of sureties open bonds accompanying bids amPcoutracts for mail service during.tbe last fouryears: “Post-Office Department, Washington, January 3, 1882.—Sut: I haver tbe honor to transmit herewith a letter from Hon. George Bliss, special ceunsel of tbe Uni ted States for the prosecution of the star route cases, and a report of Inspectors Tydball and Shallcross, detailing the re sult of a most careful examination into the responsibility of sureties upon bonds accompanying bids and contracts for mail service duiing tbe last four years. This report seems to show conclusively that there have been imposed upon tbe Post-office Department not less than IS,009 bonds, tbe sureties upon which were, with perhaps a few excep tions, utterly worthless, and were known to tbe parties who presented them to be worthless. There is reason to believe that the same parties will present a large number of proposals at the letting of mail contracts west cf tbe Mississippi river which is to take place on tbe 7th of this month, and I am advised that tbe Postmaster-General would have no au thority to reject such ( bids if regular " in form, 'while it is impossible to properly investigate the responsibility of sureties before tbe time when contracts must be awarded? Under these circumstances it seeiilS 10 irid {Jibber that tbe attention of Congreas should be flailed to this con dition of tbe law and a change be made by which some power may be vested in tbe department to debar from bidding persons wbo have hitherto been engaged in such practices. As, iu order to make the •'remedy effective at the next bidding, im mediate action upon tbe part of Congress will be required, I call your attention to the matter instead of leavlogit to my suc cessor. Very respectfully, Thomas L. James, Postmaster-General.

This gentleman, wbosemame Scoville declines to make public at present, bM offered to.pay down Immediately $1,000, tbe amount of tbe purchase money, on condition that he shall have tbe body of tbe prisoner m soon m the exactions of tbe law have been met, to dispose of m be shall see fit. He also agrees to take bis chances of waiting one month or twenty years for the con summation of tbe bargain on Guiteau's part. This somewhat liberal proposition WM submitted to Guiteau to-day, and seemed to impress him quitely favorably. After reflecting a moment, he sug gested : “I think I ought to bring more than that. Perhaps some other fellow will offer $2,000. Then I can pay my debts, and if I have to get a new trial thirt miserable Corkbill can’t bring on a lot of fellswa just to swear bow much I owe them.* The only persons admitted to the pris oner’* cell to-day were J.

Every avenue to the court room wm carefully guarded, and even the policemen on duty announced that the day would be one of unusual ira portauce in the prog! esa of the trial. A number of ladies succeeded in persuading Marshal Henry to believe that they were either members of the bar or the press— at leMt such would be the natural infer ence, m tho Beats reserved for the legal fraternity were quickly filled with ladies. There' wm a fair representation of the bar, though by far the greater part of the audience wm made up from the gentler sex. The court room was filled, and with probably the best representative audience siuce the opening cf tbe trial in point ot standing and intelligence. Mr. Davidge opened tbe argument upon the legal points, and. wm followed with the closest attention. Tbe jury were told by the judge that they might'be ex cused for tbe day, but they preferred to remain and hear the arguments. Tbe prisoner assured Ida counsel that he would not Mk to take part in the legal arguments to-day, but he should Insist up on making any comments be might deem necessary to set them right on either side. As the argument progressed, Guiteau pretended to read a letter, hut in reality fol- lowaFDavidge with tho closest attention. The few interruptions which he made were unnoticed by counsel save when Guiteau called out: “I didn’t know the difference betwMn right and wrong. Z bad no choice. If I lisa I would not have done it.” To this Davidge replied: “We will come to that by and by.” The first sensation of the day WMCaused by reading? Judge Davis’, (ol New York,) charge to the jury in the Coleman murder CMe. Judge Porter relieved Davidge, and read from a newspaper slip. Scoville, with some impatience, objected to any more such dramatic efforts on tbe part of Judge Porter, intruded for effect upon the Jury, and insisted that he (Porter) might as well read a stump speech to tbe jury; that he (Porter) knew that it had no bear ing on tbe case. “Of course he knew It,” shouted Gui teau, “and mere than that tbe jury decided the case directly against tho charge of the court.” Judge Porter repelled such in- timatiou, aud insisted -that this farce which had so iong been enacted by the couusel for tbe defense must now stop. If not rebuked by the court it would be by others. Judge Cox ended tbo dispute by saying the matter read wm undoubt-’ edly authoritative, and its applicability to the case could be commented upon by counsel at the proper time. As Ds- vidge resumed, Gniteau again shouted: “I want to get this thing right before the jury. Every one knows all about that Coleman case. Tbe jury gave a verdict against the charge, aud this prose cution know it well.” The effect was electrical when Davidge, in a moat deliber ate and earnest manner, said: “Your Honor, this man wm for three weeks held up to us m an imbecile,and now listen to him 1 He not only knows the difference between right and wrong, bat understands tally the law of the case.” Guiteau— 1 “Transitory mania!" That’s my case. I don’t pretend I am insane now. I’ve’xs good a head m you or Por ter either. Scoville is a fool though, and I repudiate him and his whole theory of defense. All 1 want is two lioura before that jury and I can set his theory all right.” The scene was a lively one for a few minutes, when Judge Cox rapped for order, and soon Guiteau subsided snd Davidge continued without further inter ruption to the end of his argument. Lcl. Reid addressed the court in reply to Judge Davidge, and confined his argu- ment to the consideration of two ques tions—first, tbe definition laid down in •tbe revised sratutes of murder aud man slaughter, under which if malice be not proven he contended the crime would be manslaughter; and, second, the applica tion to this case of the question 0 f reason able doubts iu connection with the plea of insanity. Col. Reid concluded at 2:1 with a peroration, in which figured i glowing allusion to the latitude of doubt aud tbe far-reaching impartiality of law under our free institutions. Mr. Scoville, upon being informed by tbe conrt that tbe prosecution were entitled to the opening and cioticg where both parties prayed instructions, called attention to tbe tact that tbe proa ecution liad made one argument to which tbe jury had listened this morning, and would have the same advantage Monday, while tbe defense must be contented to discuss these questions in their absence A lively and somewhat jsarcMtlc discus sion between-counsel ensued. The court did hot believe that any reflection upon tbe prosecution wm intended by Scoville, and put an end to tbe dispate by telling Scoville to proceed with bis argument. Scoville criticised severely ih* course of Judge Davis (in tbe New York case just cited), in goiog out* of bis way, m be (Scoville) Mid, to render a decision that might be made use of in tbe trial of Gni teau. “Yes,” called out tbe prisoner, “and the jury in that ease went out of their way to rebuke Judge' Davis.” Scoville had not concluded his argu raent at 3 o’clock, and tbe court adjourned until Monday.
