Clinton is another Of ''tbe guilty parties" that
"should be prosecuted" etc.
The probabilities are that Kellogg and
Clinton together fixed the amendments, and
when the Attorney General goes hunting up
and presenting "the guilty parties" the
cause of justice might be advanced if he
would give these two officials chance to
explain away the circumstantial evidence
which stamps them as the perpetrators of
the fraud
It is related that the Secretary of State will
issue proclamation resembling the promul-
cation of the bill, but it is questionable, in
the first place, whether he can do it, and in
the second place, whether he will do it?
The chances are that if he has the right, he
will think he has not and will issue no proc
lamation.
1t is simply disturbance in the family
hat will quiet down shortly, and everything
will again be serene.

FOREIGN NEWS.

PARIS March 30.-The Duke de Montspen-
cier having applied to the Marquis de Moli-
no. the Spanish Ambassador, for passport to
Spain, the Marquis declined to grant il.
The reason alleged was, that, if passport
was given by the Duke, ex-Oueen Isabella
would deem herself equally entitled to one.
and the Madrid Government considered her
return to Spain inopportune.
PARIS, March 30.-The funeral of Oninet
took place yesterday. Victor Hugo and Gam
beta delivered orations at the grave. The
crowd was immense, and there was some dis
order.
PARIS, March 3O-An official decree he's
been promulgated prohibiting the importa-
ton into France of American potatoes or
sacks or barrels previously used in packing
them. The object is to prevent the intro,
duction of the Colorado beetle.
LONDON, March 80. - One hundred and
twenty-eight thousand dollars in specie was

his predecessor in the captain generalcy and
Minister OF War, of being the cause of lack
OF discipline in the Spanish army on that
Island; also censuring the conduct of Gen.
Jovellar as Minister of War. The petition
has created profound sensation. The news
papers are compelled to maintain silence in
regard to it.

Fortunately for sport over the Lousian,

any more water could come from after the
tremendous rairstorm of Monday night

lovely weather, and we know the track will be
good because the draining facilities are per.
feet.
Given, therefore, clear sky, good track
and fine fields, and necessarily there will be
no end of sport. The public have determined
to make a gala time Of the meeting and to
throw off for the nonce the cares and vexa-
lions OF life for season of genuine enjoy
ment in the open air.
We would impress upon those who are not
rich enough to indulge in chaises to club to.
gether and take omnibuses or the street cars,
two lines Of which run near the entrance.
Cars, nowadays, are quite as genteel as car
riages, and ride out to the delightful course
only costs nickel.
To the gentlemen it is only necessary to
whisper that Johnny Hawkins has the bar to
convince them that the liquid refreshments
for the inner man will be of the very best,
AS an evidence Of the interest which has been
developed in the races, we may mention that

The city authorities, and Major Burke in

He made the crowd a mild speech this

who Changed the Bille
Was the question generally asked. There
We're many answers, and there were perhaps
not a prominent man in the ranks from Kel-
aogg down, Hahn, Antoine and Wharton, Of
course, excepted, that was not accused.
That the bill was changed-accepting
Hahn's and Antoines statement that it was
changed as correct-aster it was given into
the custody of Kellogg, there can be no
doubt, and it naturally follows that he is re-
sponsible and is one of "the guilty parties
who should be" prosecuted with the utmost
rigor of the law.
Kellogg is one Of your obliging men, and
some days before he put his signature to the
bill, he entrusted it to Clinton to look at. 1t
Took Clinton nearly two days to look at it, and
he then returned it, and no doubt signifed
his approval, for certainly Kellogg would
never have had the temerity to do any thing
in opposition to his best man.
Kellogg is not only obliging. but he is |
suileless and confding, and it is barely pos |
sible that he signed the bill without " reading |
10 over, taking it for granted that it was all
right, as it had come direct from Clinton. If |
this possibility should turn out to be some |
thing more-if, for an instance, Kellogg did |
have that abiding faith in human nature

Additions to the British Museum,

Many interesting objects have been added,
by donation and purchase, to the department
OF Greek and Roman antiquities, among
which may be mentioned the following:
Terra-cotta figure of Venus riding on q
swan, from Canteras del Puiz, in Spain; five
Athenian lekytM of fctile ware, with poly
chrome designs on white ground, on one of
which is represented Charon in his boat
beckoning toward q female figure beside a
stele, while on three are representations of
mourners bringing offerings to tombs; pair
OF gold earrings, remarkable for the richness
OF their decorations and their great size,
found in Granada, Spain; two alabaster
vases, one of which is of the peculiar
funnel shape only met with in the archaic fc-
tile wares of Ialysos and Santorin; sepulchral
stele of Demetrios, son of Pancrates with
Greek inscription in verse (from Amyzon, in
Carla.) We extract the following remarks by
Mr.. G. L. Newton, in regard to excavations at
Ephesus: "Mr. Wood has completed the ex-
pioratlon OF the site of the Temple of Diana,
and the remainder of the marbles discovered
by him have been received. In demoiishing
the walls of Byzantine masonry built against
the celia walls of the Temple, a number of
fragments of architecture and sculpture from
the Temple were found. In some places was
discovered that the foundations of this Byzan-
tine masonry rested on ancient pavements,
the level of which was Intermediate between
the levels of the two pavements previously
discovered-that is, nearly feet above
the lowest pavement previously discovered,
and about 3 feet inches below the upper
most step of the latest temple On the south
side of the site were discovered the remains
of q Doric building, which is probably Of the
same period as the latest temple. The exca-
vahons were extended on the west without
yielding any remains of the temple on the
east was found an okroterion from the roof of
the temple. In the exploration of the cells
a number of archaic fragments of sculpture
were found.
In several places the diggings were carried
down to the original foundation of the earliest
Temple, below which was layer of charcoal
distinctly visible The presence of this layer
confirms the statement of Pliny Natural His
org, xxxvi., 2D and Diogenes Laertius, iii, s,
l9,) that the foundations of the Temple were
aid on bed of charcoal and feeces of wool,
IN expedient which was probably adopted to
prevent the damp rising. After the site of
he Temple and the margin OF soil Immediately
adjoining it had been completely explored,
he excavations we're brought to close in
March, 1874. "-Chambers's Journal
