FLORA TEMPLE AND HER COLTS.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Post, who has recently visited the farm
of Mr.. WEIGH, the owner of Flora Tenn
pie, near that city, gives the following de-
scription of the present condition of the
famous trotter. He says:
While William was being moved around
by Mr.. Woodruff, Hugby gave pc
Culiar shrill whistle, and in short time
We recognized Flora Temple coming
up the lane, followed by two colts.
The name of Flora Temple has be-
come a household word, and throughout
the land her performances and MGR
its are discussed. Her extraordinary
speed has aStOnishcd the world, but her
wonderful feat at Kalamazoo was not a
greater establishment than is her youthful,
vigorous appearance to-day. She is now
twenty-fOur years old, and has done a
good part by the colts following her, but
there is scarcely an Indication of approach
ing age, except it be in the sinking of the
back, Her great fine eye is undimmed,
and her clean, bony, expressive head still
shows the indOmitable courage which car
ried her to SO many triumphs. The in
tCreSt which Centered around her per-
fOrmanCes is now transferred to her ma
ternal relations, and to her condition in
her green old age. With all the hard
| campaigning she has endured, and
the many life struggles in which she has
been engaged, she is fat and hearty, and
really looks younger and more vigorous
than any animal of her age (nO difference
what their lives may have BEEN that we
| have ever seen. Her oldest COLTS known
as Lady Temple She is eighteen months
old, and was sired by Rysdyk. She is all
| bay without marks. Her color is a
lighter shade, and she will be two sizes
| larger than her dam. In the head, eye,
and ear the resemblance is very close,
but her body is longer and more like
race horse. Her muzzle is particularly
fine, and her hind leg, according to all
trotting ideas, is an improvement. She
will not be trained till she natures,
| and she has good show then to add fresh
laurels to those she inherits Some
idea may be formed of what she is
exported to do, when we state that her
owner recently received an offer of s.,
go for her from a Chicago gentleman.
The younger is bay colt of six months
old, sired by William WEIGH, and is
known as the Prince Imperial. This is a
very taking colt, and is more like his
dam than his sister in blood The head,
eye and ear are true copies Of the dam.
Indeed, so far as a judgment can be
formed and comparison made between q
weanling and mature horse, the rcsem.
blance is complete in every particular.
The star in an old mares forehead is long
and narrow, while that in the colts i;
round. The white hair in the TANKS and
the rows of it across the root of the tai
are precisely the same as on the dam

How GhC Radicals Carried the Sintc.
Lon, Ahn Ni.lralnrtrlr TIrnns Dec

HOW shC RADICALS OaErIcu the NAitNt.
From the vicksburg Times, Dec l.
Our citizens were unutterably astonish-
cd at the unblushing corruption, intimida-
ton and fraud exercised at the polls yes
tcrday. Every avenue to the ballot-bOx
was completely covered by a crowd of
men, in utter disregard of the election
order of Gen. Ames. That order dis
tinCtly declares that no voter, except in
the act of depositing his vote, shall stand
within thirty feet of the polls. Thisregu-
lation was wholly ignored yesterday. But
this is a mere feather in the weight of
atrocity perpetTated by the Radical lead
eTs and their tools.
At the Courthouse, one of the principal
voting places in this city, the entrances to
the building itself mot the voting ROOM
were guarded by colored policemen; and,
while the white Radical politicians were
permitted to circulate freely within the
building and distribute Radical tickets
among the voters, the national Republi-
cans were refused GdB7jttdncc by Sheriff
Furlong and his subordinate Caitiffs.
On the Sheriff is enjoined the duty of
enforcing the election order of Gen.
Amos, but at 10 voting place did we
find a single 1rhtc dCputy or police
man. We have had occasion 70 com
mend heretofore the good conduct of
some of our colored officers of the law
in certain places and at proper times, but
that they should have been placed in ex-
elusive charge of the peace and good or
der at the polls, at time like the present,
| in an election where both whites and
blacks vote, is too flagitiOus a piece of
conduct on the part of those whose duty
! il was to act otherwise, to be easily passed
| over.
At another place, one of the most inn
portant polls of the City-cOTnCr of Wash
inCton and Crawford strcets--Thc Rev.
School Fund Stringer stood unmOlested
! ,rifhip sir feet of the Board Of Com
g,lissionerS themselves, taking and cX-
amining the ballot of every colored voter,
and changing the same when bis sanCti-
monious highness thought fit. Within
the very door of the polling room, touch
ing the very elbow of one of the Com
! missioncrs, stood another dusky leader
Of the Radicals, who a second time cN-
amincd the ballots of the Colored voters,
before they could resch the ballot box.

DESOLATED CITY.
Two Thousand Houses Burned
Eve Hundred Lives Lost

A recent fearful item of news from the
Russian press is The burning of the town
of Jeniseish, Eastern Siberia, on the 6th
of September. The fire originated in a
turf moor which had been smOuldering
for some years, and, during a violent
storm, burst out into sea of flames,
which seized the nearest house about II
o'clock in the forenoon, thence spreading
quickly over the whole city. AT O'Clock
in the evening 1900 houses Cm0stly
wooden, but thirty-five of great size, six
churches, two cloisters, all the stores and
an immense amount of grain (abOut p
900, 900 pounds were destroyed. The
fearful rapidity with which the flames
spread prevented the people in nearly every
case from preserving their goods. Over
100 corpses were found charred in
the streets, and as many more are said to
have been drowned in the water. Many
of the inhabitants fed to the vessels in the
harbor, but these, too, were caught up by
the flames The city is now desOlate, and
its former residents are strewn around III
the neighboring villages and the various
cities of the government.

An International Habeas Corpus.
MONTREAL, Dec. 10.-Application was
made in the Chambers for q writ Of hsbeas
corpus on behalf Of Caldwell, who is de-
manded, in connection with certain rev.
enue frauds in New York. The counsel for
the prisoner eontended that a magistrate in
lower Canada has no jurisdiction to issue
warrant for the arrest of prisoner in
Ontario. The counsel for the United
States argued that, under the recent act of
Parliament, magistrate in an extradition
case has jurisdiction all over the Dominion.
Judge Monbelet reserved his decision till
