Showing up their Hypocrisy. {

We find i'll the New York Times the
following report of the discussion in the
House over the proposed early adjourn
ment, by which it will be seen that Hon.
Horace Maynard showed up from the re-
cords, the hypocrisy for which Democrat
&c politicians are everywhere noted:
Messrs. Brooks, Cox and Holman, on the
Democratic side, opposed early adjourn
ment, all the time protesting not to be ac-
tuated by any partisan motives, but all the
time displaying the demagogism that SO
cOnspicuously marks the action of the
Democrats in Congress at the present
time. This was strikingly illustrated by
Mr.. Maynard, who impaled them on the
records of the Globe. showing that early i'll
the second session of the Forty-tirst Con-
gress, when Mr.. Stiles, of Pennsylvania, a
Democrat, introduced resolution to adj
jOurn on the second Monday of April fol-
lowing, they then voting from conviction
as to the policy of short sessions and abili-
ty to finish the business, all put them
selves on record in its favor To-day, with
the hypocrisy which pervades all they do
now as a party, they voted against it. not
because of any regard for the public inter
est, but to throw upon Republican House
the responsibility of prolonging the SEES
sion, hoping that in such prOlongatiOn
something of evil import to the Republi-
cans may happen, of which they hope to
take advantage.

Theology and the Constitution.

CINCINNATI, January 31.-The National
Convention to secure a theological amend
ment to tho Constitution met to day, about
$50 delegates being present from fifteen
States. Judge NJ. B. Hagan, of Cincin
natl, was chosen President, with number
of Vice Presidents and Secretary. Letters
were read from a number of gentlemen, in
Guiding Judge Strong, of the Supreme
Court, regrettiDg their inability to attend.
Information was received of thirty or
CARNATIONS, with between $50 and 800
members each. A disturbing element
came by notice from F. +. Abbott, edi-
tor of paper devoted to the interests of
free religion, that he desired to utter a re-
monstrance against the object of the Con-
VentiOn. After discussion, Abbott was re-
Quested to reduce his remonstrance to Wri
ting, and it was referred to the Committee
on Business. ...... ...F......
The committee on resolutions repOrteda
series, which were laid over for discussion.
They declare that State exercises IuriS-
diCtiOn of millions Of human beings and as
the sovereign arbiter of life and death, and
as the educating power, has necessarily q
moral character and accountability of its
own; that it is the right and duty of the
United States, as a nation settled by Chris
tians, with Christian laws and Christiani-
ty as its greatest social force, to aCknOWl
edge itself i'll its Constitution to be a
Christian nation that the failure by this
nation to acknowledge its relations to God
has fostered the theory that the Govern
ment has nothing to do with religion, and
that the State laws in favor of the Sabbath,
Christian marriages and the Use of the
Bible i'll public schools are unCOnstitutiOn
al that we recognize the necessity of COM
plete harmony between our written Con-
stitution and the actual facts of our nation
al life, and the true way to effect this har-
mOny is not to eXpell the Bible, and abro-
gate the laws enforcing Christian morality,
and abolish all devOut obseryances i'll con-
nection with the Government, and all idea
of God and religion from our schools, but
to insert explicit Acknowledgements of God
and Bible in the fundamental law, and
that the proposed religious amendment is
directly opposed to the union of Church
and State. The convention adjourned
until tomorrow, when the session will
close.

THE DAVENPORT BROTHERS CAUGHT
The Davenport Brothers gave some Of
their psychic exhibitions at Ithaca, New
York, but their tricks were sadly disar-
ranged 10y some of the Cornell University
fellows. A private letter says that some
of the students, having a scientific turn of
mind, provided themselves beforehand
with pyrotechnic balls containing phosphc-
rus, SO made as to ignite suddenly with a
bright light. During the dark seances,
when the Davenports purported to be, and
as the audience supposed were, bound
hand and foot within their closet or cabin,
and when the guitar was floating in the
air and playing unsteady around, the
aforesaid students struck their lights all OF
q sudden, when the spirits were found to
be none other than the Davenports them
selves, who were doging about the stage,
brandishing the guitar, and playing the
tunes. The music suddenly ceased, the
committee declared the performance a
humbug, and the players departed from
Ithaca by the earliest train.
