Thar was felicitous act on the
part of the late Democratic Convsn-
ton, which recently assembled in
New Orleans, to choose the Hon. j.
c. Moncure for its presiding officer.
A gentleman in the strictcst sense of
the word, of marked abilities, our
honored standard bearer in our last
State contest, elected by handsome
majority, and finally robbed of his
rights by the infamous Cheating
Board, it was eminently fit and prop
er that the Convention should have
made such a selection.

After Seven Centuries.
THE TIME BLACKENED TEMPLE OF THE
JUGGERNAUT TUMBLING
TO. PIECES.

An event of some Importance recent
ly occurred in connection with the
Temple Of Jaggernaut. Throughout
the whole of the Empire there is no
shrine SO sacred IS Pooree, and no spot
where dcvout Hindoo would rather
die than beneath this great fade. The
temple, which cost half million ster-
ling of the money of our times, is lite
rally black with age. The storms of
nearly seven centuries, which are often
so violent in the Bay of Bengal, have
produced little impression upon it, and
until a few weeks ago it seemed as
likely to remain at many centuries
more. Many Of the large temples in
the province are now in ruins, but they
have not fallen through the wear and
tear of time. A silent but effectual
power has been the cause of this des-
truction.
The seeds of the peepal and banyan
trees have got into the foundations
These have taken root; the sapling has
forced its way through the assures of
the stones, and in process of years the
whole fabric has been loosened and
eventually brought down, and it seems
probable that the Temple of Jugger-
naut will share the same fate. At tile
late car festivals, as soon as the idols
had been taken from their thrones for
their annual excursion, several large
stones from the inner roof fell on the
platform. Had they fallen a few min
utes earlier the idols would have been
shattered to atoms, and in all tproba-
bility there would have been great
less of life. The resident magistrate
applied to the Governor for an engi-
neer to inspect the damage.
This was found to be very difficult
task, as the temple is 90 dark. There
are no apertutes for the light; five or
six lights are kept burning in the day
time, and even with these nothing is
visible but the idols. It is but very
rarely that temples are repaired, and
the sound of the chisel and the ham
mer on the top of this great temple
will do more to weaken the faith of
the Hindoo in Juggernaut than any
thing that has occurred in the present
generation. There the priests are very
wealthy, and the annual ircome of the
temple is said to amount to f68, 0O0.-
The question which is agitating all
priests is what is to be done with the
idols while the repairs are being made9
The officers of the temple are most an
xious to have the idols restored to
their thrones They propose that an
inner ceiling of wood shall be made to
protect the idols and the worshippers
but there would be- so much danger
should there be another fall Of stones
that the Rajah will not consent.-[In.

"A CORRESPONDENT Of the st
Louis Republican gives several in
stances of the illegal interference O.
President Grant with the courts
where the prosecuting officers were
ola more pliable nature than District
Attorney Dyer of st. Louis. A gau.
ger named James E. Marsh was con-
vieted before Judge Krekel, in JEFF
ferson City, of having failed to per.
form his duties a few months ago,
and the conviction was heralded by
Grants organs as an evidence that
the Administration was determined
TO wage an unrelenting war against
the Whiskey Ring. But the Presi-
dent, this writer says, through the
Attorney-General, has ordered a new
trial. John L. Bittenger was anoth
er gauger stationed at St. Joseph and
ne was convicted of spiriting away a
witness, and of improper official con-
duct. In his case it is said that the
PRESIDENT has, through the Attorney
General, ordered suspension ofsen-
tence, with the promise of new
TRIAL after the present excitement has
passed away. About two years ago,
IN Topeka, Kansas, a United States
revenue collector named John Speer
was indicted for embellishments and
frauds upon the United States Treas
ary to the amount of $4,000. JUS
nce Mullen and Judge Dillon were in
topeka ready to try the defaulter.
sae witnesses were present, and the
people were awaiting the trial with
great interest, when the President,
through the Assistant Attorney Gen
eral, at the last moment sent an or
aer that the cases should be dis
missed, and the edict was promptly
ooeyed. 1t was rumored at the time
'nat Babcock was at the bottom of
'nls outrageous interference with the
course of justice. Grant seems to
'alnk not only that he has perpet-
aal claim upon the office of President
0as also that his possession of it
gives him authority to override the
laws and indulge in the exercise of
's'potlc powers where his political
VI personal friends are concerned.

let THE DEMOCRATIC HOUSE
ACT,

In the last House of Representa-
.;ves the Republican majority was
ono hundred and ten. In the present
Irouse the Democrrtic majority is
about seventy. This is the greatest
nolitical change from one Congress to
the next that ever took place since
the adoption of the constitution.
The revolution which caused it was
universally regarded as foreshadow-
ing the end of Grantism, unless the
Democratic party, and especially its
majority in the House, should fail
TO fulfill its pledges in regard to re-
,renchment, integrity in Office, and a
thorough exposure of the corruptions
snd iniquities of Grants admins
tration.
Ten days hence, when Congress
,eassembles, month will have pass,
ed since the House elected its officers.
In the mean time the business it has
done will be limited to the announce
ment of its standing committees,
drawing ten months pay, and gong
on a iunketing tour to Philadelphia,
preparatory to getting into jolly
frame of stomach and brain suitable
for depicting the Treasury without
right or authority. In these partic-
alars. and in the adjournment of
about two weeks to eat their Christ
mas dinners, we do not severely
blame the Democratic House for
merely falling into practices that
crew up under their Republican pre-
decessors. But is it not probable
that many of those voters who held
the balance of power in 1874 and
turned the scale in favor of the Dem
ocrats, may view such things with
serious disfavor?
When the House meets in January,
the Democratic majority cannot en-
ter upon the serious work of the ses-
sion one moment too soon. They
we're elected fourteen months ago on
clearly defined issues, and they GER
tainly ought to have ascertained by
this time what they are going to do,
and how they are going to do it. 1t
is already evident that the Republi-
cans in this Congress intend to play
an aggressive role. Morton, in the
Senate, instead of defending the poll
ry of the Administration in Louisi-
ana, makes an assault upon the recent
Democratic victory in Mississippi.
Blaine, in the House, instead of both
ering his head over inconsequential
legislation about a return to specie
payment, introduces q proposed
amendment to the Constitution
which raises the Anti-Catholic issue.
The Democrats should understand
that the Republicans have been from
the start the most bold anil aegres-
sive party in our history. The Dem
oerats should learn wisdom from their
opponents, Timidity, evasion and
procrastination will not win in a
hand-tO- hand conflict with adverse
ries so willy and desperate, so thor
onshly disciplined, and with such
vast resources at command as the
lepubllcans.-[N N. Y. Sun.
