[EEUTEE’S TELEGEAMS.] WASHINGTON, January 3, Trial of Guiteau. The trial of Guiteau continues, and the defence of the prisoner is now being proceeded with. LONDON, January 3. Liberal Meeting. A large Liberal meeting was held this evening at Birmingham. Mr John Bright and Mr Chamberlain, two of the members for the borough, were present, and delivered lengthened addresses. The former, in the course of his speech, alluded to England’s foreign relations, and stated that even if the country was without allies there was no power that had more friends. In reference to Irish affairs Mr Bright justified the pilicy of coercion which had been pursued in that country. Mr Chamberlain also referred to the state of affairs in England, and stated that there was already a decrease of fully 40 per cent in the number of agrarian outrages, and the position was decidedly hopeful. He ridiculed the idea of landlords being compensated for the reduction of rents. Obituary—William Harrison Ainsworth, novelist, aged seventy-seven.
