ceLt johnson that while entertaining sin
cere respect FOR the religious belief OF others

towards the completion of which he made a
very liberal contribution. In conversation
with friends, however, he expressed grave
doubts as TO the correctness OF the theory on
which is founded the commonly accepted
doctrines Of Christianity, and seemed to find
satisfaction In speculations as TO the life
hereafter. He was a great admirer of Sye-
cenborg as an interpreter Of the scriptures,
and those who knew him best are of the
opinion that his religious belief conformed
more nearly to the ARCHAEOLOGICAL faith than
10 any other.

Ion In the democratic party on the financial
question The hard-money wing was and

The election for Governor OF Kentucky
takes place. IL viii De remembered, to-day.
IL was thought that Harlan would receive
tne largest vote ever polled by the republi-
can party in the state, bat, on account of
unusually heavy rains and exceedingly
high waters throughout the state, II is now
doubtful whether ~ large a general vote as
usua! Will be cast OF course we have no
returns up TO the hour OF going To press; and,
although the result may be confidently an
ticipated, IL is not Ike that tie figures will
be known until tomorrow, or possibly even
later

The community whose privilege it is to ex-
anime the treasures OF the Corcoran Gallery
OF Art, Will be shocked to hear that another
and double outrage has been perpetrated
upon two OF its statues. This time, the
creek Slaye,-ths only marble statue In the
gallery, so pure anu 20 beautiful-has been
one OF the subjects OF this new outrage I'M
nouetedly committed by the same beastly
wretch that perpetrated the FIST offence some
months ago. Though he has so far eIudet
the vigilance OF the gallery-keepers, suspi-
cion rests upon one who. If attempting
repetition OF the act, will fiud himself dealt
With in way 10 make him feel the enorni-
~ OF his offence, not only against the Gal
iery Of Art, but an outraged community.

RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.

1T Is generally supposed that railroad
accidents are more frequent, and the deaths
resulting thereirom more numerous in the
United States, according 10 the railway
mileage, than in any other country. Sta
tistics, however, do not bear ont this as
sumption. In 1874, there were ,175 deaths
