GREAT EASTERN MENAoERIE AND CIRCUS
-OPENING PERFoRlGAECEs.-This colossal
exhibition, the NJ pIut Nkrd of 81 enc aud 20,
logical excellencies, opened on the corner OF
East and Chestnut streets to very fine audi
ence in point Of numbers Und respectfully,
and at night there was perfect jam Of BREATH
ing humanity, thousands being turned away,
unable to gain admission on account Of the
crowded state Of the immense paviliOns. The
procession In the forenoon Of yesterday through
the principal avenues of the city Is conceded
tie most imposing and gorgeous ever made
here. The whole was enliveneL with excel
lent music from the several bands. 1.-THE ex-
hibitiOn itself, too much In just cOmmendatiOn
cannot be said. The night performance was
unfortunately marred by the severe Wlndand
disaster which so suddenly terminated the ex-
hibItion, but the afternoon entertainment was
smOothe, most agreeable and instructive. The
animal collection is much the largest ever seen
here, embracing thirty odd dens Of living
specimens from the old and new world. With
the circus the audience were delighted, and
manifested their apprQbatiOn by warm and re-
peated applause. The equestrianism is eS-
pecially 1nexcelled. The acrObatic and gym
nastic exercises were wonderful, and ellclted
much remark from the enthusiastic visitors. =

In reply to The hue and cry
which is being raised by The
Democratic press IN regard to
the criminaliiy of CollaX, Gar
field, Dawes, Kelly and other
leading Republicans in their
connection with the Credit Mo.
bilier, we have only this to say.
The investigation was ordered
on motion of Speaker Blaine,
one OF the accused, who called
Hon. S. s. Cox, a leading Dem.
ocrat TO the chair to hear the
motion and appoint a commit
tee. The committee consisted
of two Republicans and three
of the opposition, and alter pa
tlently hearing and weighing
the testimony, much of which
was in direct conflict, they have
found two members of Con
gress criminally interested in
Credit Mobilier stock, one a
Republican OF no prominence
in the party, Oakes Ames, of
Massachusetts; and the other,
James Brooks, OF New York,
the Democratic leader of the
House. In this verdict the
committee was unanimous,
which shows that they ap-
preached the subject with more
candor than have these gentle
men of the Democratic press.
But having gwen ourselves up
as a party to be tried by
Democratic jury, as 1t were,
and they having pronounced US
innocent of guilt, We protest
against this garbling Of the teS-
timony to assail the character
of men whom their committee,
in view of all the testimony,
were compelled to acquit of
any wrong. If the findings of
the committee was not fair and
just to all parties, it is because
of the inherent weakness and
rascality of the Democratic
party, who had the matter IN
their own hands. The truth oil
it IS, and the Democratic press
may as well acknowledge 1t,
as did the Democratic Com.
mittee, the Democracy were a
little deeper in the mud than
we were in the mire.

Senator .POmerOY,s Case.

The Committee in the case
of Senator Pomeroy for bribing
members of the Kansas Legis
lature to vote for him have re.
ported, the majority reporting G
in Pomeroy's favor. Senator
Vickers declines to form an
opinion IS 10 his guilt or limo.
cence for want of time to prop.
cry consider The evidence.
Senator Thurman makes a
short minority report, finds
Pomeroy guilty, but declined
10 present the case to the SEN
ate in full. We are compelled
to coincide with the report of
Senator Thurman, and regret
that there was not sufficient
time for HIM to present his
views fully to the Senate.
Pomeroy's explanation Is "too
thin" to cover his rascality.
