Congressional.

| WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The House
to-day INDUCED in one of those excit-
ing personal alterations, which have
been of such frequent occurrence OF
late years, and which is not atall cred
liable to the House as body, or to its
members Immediately participating
The Military Academy Bill was un-
| der consideration and clause relating
to pay of Cadets, gave rise to earnest
discussions on the subject of Economy
and Retrenchment.
Mr.. Cox made some structures upon
the course of the Republicans which
were not relished by gentlemen of
that party, and Mr.. Hale of Maine
| stepped to the front us its champion,
and made an effort to show that in
spite of boasted economy the Demo-
Gratis, especially those from the South,
han already piled up mountain OF
bills, compensations for all manner of
| property handled by Federal troops
| during the late war. In the course Of
his remarks he told Mr.. Cox that he,
Mr.. Cox, would be voting for these
bills when his master ordered him to
do so.
Mr. Cox tried to get the floor imme-
| diately to reply, out it was yielded to
others, and the New York member
was SO nettled that he accused the
Chair of unfairness, but subsequently
| apologized for the remark. When he
| finally succeeded in getting the floor
he inquired of Mr.. Hale what he
meant, when the latter replied that
| Cox would obey the domineering in
of h 10 nj. ~ L.
ern members. To that Cox replied
| that it remained to be seen. 1t was a
| matter for the future to determine how
far he would be controlled by any mas
ters, and wound up with the remark
that Mr.. Hale had been known as
"Blaine's little bub.r Many III the
galleries and on the floor understood
him to say "pup,n and among them
Mr.. Garfield, who at once called
him to order, and demanded that
the words should he taken back.
The greatest excitement at once pre-
vailed, members on both sides spring
ing to their feet and the Chairman
pounded with his gavel hard enough
to nearly break the desk, while amid
it all, Mr. Cox and Mr.. Hale were vo-
ciferating and gesticulating at each
other, the latter contenting himself
for the time being by hurting at Mr..
Cox the name of "Shoo Fly,n which
was bestowed upon him by Gen. But
Ter, a few years ago. Order was finally
restored, and it was ascertained that
Mr.. Cox had said "Bub,n and not
"Purp.o Mr. Cox expressed willing
ness to withdraw the offensive remark.
The troubled waters were thus partial
ly calmed, nevertheless Mr.. Cox did not
neglect the opportunity in his subse-
quent remarks to give Mr.. Hall some
sly raps on account of an alleged in.
consistency in refusing to vote for the
Centennial bill last year and voting
for it this year, which Mr.. Hall subse.
quently explained satisfactorily.

Los Angeles Porpoises.

We see it stated that al an "infor-
malp meeting held in this city q few
evenings since two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars were subscribed to-
wards establishing new steamship
line between Santa Monica and San
Francisco. Iti also announced from
an unreliable source that Mr.. E. j..
BALDWIN took seventy-five thousand
dollars worth of stock in the new ven-
ture. We have not the slightest no.
tion that this is true, but if it should
chance to be so it will prove specula-
ton that will detraet somewhat from
Mr.. BALDwIN's soubrlquet of
"Lucky.n We rarely find business
man wasting his money for the sole
purpose of seeing some other business
man lose his. We have the assurance
of GooDALL, NELSON & PERKINS that
there is not sufficient business to pay
the expenses of two lines of steamers,
and We presume they will satisfy all
interested parties of the truth of their
statement by an examination of their
books. With this light on the subject
we are mistaken in the business tact
of Mr.. BALDWIN if he invests seventy
five thousand dollars in an enterprise
that cannot but prove losing specu-
lation. Another proof that this pro-
posed opposition line ofsteamers is all
wind and blow is found in the fact hat
no steamers suitable for the service
can be purchased OH this coast. They
must be built or purchased in the East
and sent around the Horn or over the
railroad that Senator JONES and the
patriotic, self-sacrificing, little band
of capitalists presided over by Col.
WARNER, are going to build when our
people subscribe $60O,O0O to its stock

selves with nearly 100000, gold coin.
If This is true here is the proof of our
statement that Mr.. TEMPLE is vic
tim to the culpable mismanagement
of those whom he employed to con-
duet his business. If but 100000 can
be collected out of the $3.50, 1000 there
is squandering of S450,00O; add to
this the 100000 charged to two of the
employees and we see what has be-
come of $550,000 of the banks funds.
1t is also stated that the best-of the
assetsa tied up as collateral security
for money advanced by banks in San
Francisco. For further information
we refer the reader to an article from

The Bank Matter.

1t is the hope of every resident of
Los Angeles that the statement in the
Star of yesterday morning in relation
to the bank of TEMPLE d WORKMAN
may prove true. 1t simply reiterates
what we have before stated. We
could not be induced to utter word
against Mr. TEMPLE, and no one
knows this better than himself. But
the management, or rather misman-
agement, of the bank, with which Mr..
TEMPLE had nothing whatever to do,
is spoken of in terms the reverse of
complimentary by everybody. The
Star says, and one of the assistant
committee is the authority, that two
of the employees have charged them

F. P. F. Temple.

1t is a subject Of profound regret to
every resident of this city that
through false friendship and mis-
placed confidence, man of such ster-
ling worth, unimpeachable character
and generous nature as Mr.F.P. F. Tenn
PIE, should be deprived of the reward
of life of honest industry and careful
economy. The misfortunes of Mr..
TEMPLE are the misfortunes of the
whole community, and his losses are
to certain extent the losses of all.
No man has done more toward devel-
oping the resources and enhancing the
prosperity of Los Angeles city and
county than Mr.. TEMPLE. He used
his wealth in the establishment of
new industries and in pushing forward
new enterprises. He spent thousands
in testing the gold mines of Catalina
Island; he was the principal in carry
Ing out the Cerro Gordo water-works
system; his money carved the gran
ite bed of the San Jacinto wagon road !;
from his own means he built the San
Emida saw mills, and he supplied the
funds that erected the Touring mill
near San Sabine river. In the city
Mr.. TEMPLE has built dozens of houses
that will stand as monuments of his
worth as a citizen when those now
living have passed away. He
possesses two qualities which are
rarely found combined in one person.
the ability to acquire wealth and Il
generous disposition. The poor and
needy never applied to Mr.. TEMpLEin
vain. His purse was always open to
the calls of charity. There are hun
dreds of men and families i'm this val
ley who remember him rs their friend
in need, and not few of these have
abundant reason to thank him for as
sistance ut time when but for him
they would have suffered themselves,
and been poweress to alleviate the
suffering of those near and dear to
them. His many kind and charitable
acts have endeared him to hundreds,
whose sympathy for him in his pres
ent difficulties, is deep and heartfelt.
Those to whom Mr.. TEMPLE is indeht-
ed may rest assured that every effort
will be made on his part to return
their money. Every dollars worth of
property that he can call his own will
go to meet the claims of his creditors,
and his only regret is that for their
sake he has not the means to liquidate
every liability at once. Though Mr..
TEMPLE is involved in difficulties
which seem to threaten his financial
ruin, his character is as free from stain
as in his most prosperous days, and
there are none who question his hon
esty of purpose or the purity of his in
tention. Few have fallen from so
great financial hight and yet retain
ed so versally the esteem of his fell
low men.
