It is stated positively that the president , before going to Yorktbwn , tendered the treasury portfolio to ex-Governor Morgan , of Now York , and up to this hour no answer has been received , al though it may have come to hand , as the president lias not had time to look at his mail. A reporter of'the Na tional Associated-Press called at ox- Governor Morgan's ollico this morn ing , and found him there. In answer to a , direct question ho said that ho would consider it a breach of trust to give any information on the subject. If ho had accepted , ho thought the president would like to send it to the senate before it ivas known to any newspaper , and if ho had declined it ho thought the president would likoto have the opportunity to ofier the position to aomo one else before it became publicly known. ( JUITKAU'S CASE. District Attorney Gorl hill and Sco ville , counsel for Guiteuu , were in the criminal court to-day in reference to the case. Judge Cox said ho would consult with counsel and appoint some one to assist the defense. To-day Judge Cox rendered a de cision upon thu request of Scoville to have the court summon witnesses lor the defense. After reviewing the law recited by Scoville , the judge Giiid ho felt justitied in the decision that the court may summon the neces sary witnesses for the defense , but reserved a decision us to the character and number of the witnesses necessary. Scoville , counsel for Guitcau , has received numerous replies from Now York ulono to his appeal for testimony as to Guitoau's insanity , and thinks ho will bo able to get all the witnesses ho needs. Ho has received u letter from A. . McDonald , medical super intendent of the New York city asy lum for the insane , wondering horV ho got the idea of the doctors favoring the plea of insanity. Scoville re plied that a friend had given him Dr. McDonald's name an that of u useful witness , but had not intended to convoy the idea thr.t the doctor had offered to assist in the defense of the prisoner. The questions of the assisting counsel and the character and number of wit nesses the court will summon for the defense are expected to bo settled to morrow. In regard to some pub lished statements concerning the po litical aspect of the case , Scoville , in reply , says ; "I wish to say once for all that I have no information or be lief that any statesman , politician or any other person than Guiteau him- selt had any intimation before the shooting that ho contemplated the act. Afy position is simply that the fierce contest waged by the stalwarts against Garfiold's adminis tration , with no such design of the ac tors , resulted in worrying upon a deceased mind to the commission pf the act. The crime of murder is not therefore charged against politicians. There is only a crime against the peace and welfare of society , which is made manifest in a causeless und bit ter fight against a prpniclont elected by a people in thu discharge of his public duties and seeking to maintain his high prerogatives. LIFE OP ( unman TO nn punusitnn. Col. Rockwell has received the fol lowing letter from Mr..GarKoldwhich is furnished the press for publication : MENTOJI , Ohio , October 21 , 1881 DKAU COL.

Tory sincerely yours , LWIIKTIA 11. GAUKIKU ) . With regard to the foregoing , Col onel llockwoll makes the following statement : So that those boat ac quainted with the great capacity for tlio work and the vast versatility of Gen. Garfield , the extent , variety , and orderly arrangement of his intellec tual estate may fully appre ciate its value , and behov ing that the most enduring monument ment of the hito president must be erected upon the granite foundation of what ho said and did and was , Mrs. Garfield proposes an affectionate and careful work in this direction. Such a monument , therefore - fore , illustrating u lito which cannot bo written until the world was moved far enough from him to take in the great grandeur of his career and char acter , may bo expected only after matured and deliberate work , and as coming from Mrs. Garfiold's sanction and authority.

President Arthur stated definitely to-day that ho should submit no cabi net nominations to the sonata this week. This gives slate makers a new lease of life. A member of the official family of the president stated this evening that ho very much doubted if any cabinet nominations would bo sent to the present session of the senate. Ho thinks that the presi dent intends to make no cabinet changes until compelled to , which moans until vacancies occur. The same person expects Windom to remain in for a while , even after ho may bo elected to the senate , since his credentials could scarcely reach hero before thoadjourn- inoift of the United States senate , and since his term then would not neces sarily begin until December next. This program is advanced on the the ory that the president being alike anxious tc retain James temporarily and give the treasury to New York finally. He hopes Windom will re main Ion1. ' enough for the star route cases to be disposed of and the difli- culty be thus bridged. Win dom , however , stated to-day that such a program has not even been of fered , but the president is thought to bo holding the portfolio for him only if Morgan will not accept it. In re gard to the latter there have been two exactly opposite reports hero to-day. Ono caino from a Nosy York gentle man to the eil'ect that Gov. Morgan was settling up his private business preparatory to accepting the sec retaryship of the treasury. The other is to the effect that he hud written to the president declining to accept a po sition in the cabinet because it would bo impossible at present for him to Borer his connection with his largo commercial business ho is in. No now names came to the surface to day. Messrs.

If moro than 15 miles the price should not bo less than S10 per acre , and if within 15 miles , not less than $20 per ton. This decision is niado to meet cases that may arise where the original claim is made be fore the construction of the railroad within the above limit , and when pay ment is made before the'completion ' of " " ' " ' e" ' Iho road.

The Htory is briefly summarized as foi- lows : Five minutes after leaving the ground at Chicago they reached an altitude of 4,000 feet. They first moved southwest , but u little later as cended into the upper current and moved west , afterward going northwest. They hung iiuspeiulcd and swinging in a circle for three hours over a place they supposed to bo Peoria. Fri day morning they found themselves in Wisconsin , and trailed their drag rope over a number of houses at Spring Valley , where a man came out and tired a shot at them. They then passed over Platte Mounds , where they were hold for half an hour , Loing finally forced to throw out ballast to escape the mounds. In passim ; over Little Falls , Wis. , they c , mo so near ground that they struck the trees and took a largo portion of ono along aa a Rouvenoir. They then rose 0G'00 feet in tlio air and wont through a severe rain storm , which wet them through and through. The last man spoken t < had told them they were forty miles from &t.

About twenty-livo years ago Baldwin was thrown from a horse , having his head injured. Previous to this ho was considered in every way one of our most intellectual citizens. Since his injuiy he has had a nvmia for writing articles on finance and has Hi'curcd ' the printing of these articles in many lirst-cluss journals. Ho has been until recently a heavy dealer in coal and iron , and during the war made qnito a fortune. In all his dealings Jiohas always demanded gold and would hound a man day and night if ho was known to have a § 20 gold piece. It is known that on Baldwin's farms , six miles from this city , ho linn over § 100,000 worth of gold buried , and it is the wonder of the people that ho has not been robbed or murdered at his country residence years ago.

Ho re turned safely this evening with three satchels full of gold pieces. Indication * National Anoctatod from. WASHINGTON , D. 0. , October 21.

LONDON , October 21. Mr. Gowon , In an editorial in The Newcastle Chronicle , saya : "Not so many years ujfo , Mr. GlatiatDno wrota ad tillowa : 'The prisoners in the kingdom of Naples , arrested and imprisoned with out duo legal process were in viiat pro portion not tried at all , and when they wore tried were so badly treated by exceptional and not regular tri bunals , that when they were con demned they we're condemned not by the f roe verdict of a popular body , but .by the sentences of judges de pendent upon the government For their bread , a government noreover whoso power rested on liigrant breaches of a written legal constitution of the country. " The irimo minister in his time played nany parts , but oven those familiar with Ins gyrations were not , perhaps , iwaro of the rapid transformation of : UH opinions on the treatment of polit ical prisoners. It is true that the men fur whom ho pleaded years ago were jtrangars at a distance whereas , those ho now imprisons are follow country men a near distinction may reconcile the difference with which cases uro treated to the sublime and versatile intellect of Mr. Gladstone , but to plain men it is not so apparent. AN AIHIUKSH TO AMK1LIUAN LBACIUKS. NKW YORK , October 21. The fol lowing address will bo issued tomorrow row t'toin the ollieo of The Irish World to brunches of the land and industrial leagues of this country : To lliu IrMi National Land ami Industrial I.caKiRS of America : UKOTHUUH : Engliah despotism 1ms outlawed the land league , but the spirit of the urgunizatioii in inde structible. The movement cannot be suppressed. In order to kill the vitalizing principled implanted in Lhe mind of Ireland by this agitation , it IB first necessary to exterminate the Irish pcrplp them selves. Nor would the diabolical effort succeed even then. There is a new Ireland this proclamation cannot iflcct. America is the unassailable base of operations. In truth , war linn just commenced in downright ear nest. England and Ireland are now face to face. Nothjng rash or foolish should be attempted , but every on- [ lortunity to strike England morally or physically ouyh * . to bo taken ad vantage of. Gladstones bun sown wind , let him reap the whirl wind. The point which The Irish World has urged all along ; "no rent" is now adopted and The Irish World and its constituency from Maine to California will support the land league with redoubled energy and zeal unparalleled. Already you who made this journal the channel of your offerings to the land league liavo Hubscribed $100,000 to the land league , but , respectable as thin is , it is a * but a drop in the bucket to what wo can and must contribute. You are 9,000 , leagues stronu. Now i the time for you to show your strength , We. pledged ourselves to the land league in convention assem bled If it would prosecute war on the no rent program we would re double dur efforts iu itn .behalf. The no rent banner is unfurled. It now rums in for ua to fulfil our pledge. Hold public meetings , increase the mumbonthip of your branches , sent out collectors into the ward ; mid parishes , promptly forwuri to us all monnys which The Irish \Vorld will ( lush by cable to Mr. Kgan in Paris : Do these things and you will RIVO now hope to the people of Ireland who arc now en- cngod in a life and death trugglo with landlordism and alien rule and are bravely working out their political salvation.
