THE DEATH or THE HOUSE

The Democratic portion of the Forty.
fourth Congress died yesterday at noon in
fit of rage. 1t was hard desth-like
unto the death which results from violent
case OF bydrophoba. 1t died in Ill humor,
Ill health and ill.doing. 1t was mad. Its
temper-why patent double. .springed.
diodonocepalous steel.trap on a frosty
morning Is no more to be compared to II
than hair pin to the trident Of Neptune;
tho wings of butterfly TO the tulsris Of
Mercury, or the cracking Of a Chinese
bomb to the deafening explosion at He'll
Gate. Its past life troubled 1t, aud the fu.
ture was not bright. That vision which
two months since was filed with prospect
i've post offices, collectorships and innu
merable fat offices for a hungry, and, In
many instances, q deserving constituency,
had passed away, swim as any shadow, and
in its stead had come hopelessnese, disap-
pointment and ill.suppressed rage. These
are the natural results, however, OF i'll.
spent life. II is simply retributive justice.
Three months Of existence, and what
has the Democratic House to show for it,
Nothing but defeat, disgrace and dishonor.
Ninety days have been trifled away by
them in vain glorious attempt to seize
the sceptre of national power through a
system Of legislative somersaults and in
vestigating chicanery never before equalIed
by any session Of Congress since the Re.
public was established. One million five
hundred thousand dollars have been abso-
lu,ely wasted by the House OF the Forty
fourth Congress in investigations which
have resulted In not one particle Of mate
rial or moral benefit 10 the American people,
and yesterday it passed away, leaving
but one act in sll its career which met with
the approval of the American people, and
that act was afterwards dishonored by the
bsd faith with which the filibustering ele.
ment accepted the result. This much for
the House Of the Forty fourth Congress.
1t is dead, and may the mountain OF evil
created by It be buried with its corpse, aud
the mole of good which 1t was forced to do
live on forever.

A Coincidence,

simultaneously with President HAYES,
there arrived in Washington, on the I'd inst,
the infant daughter of Mr.. CHAs. o. STEELE,
of the Treasury Department, and yesterday
the little girl was baptised Hayesina." in
honor Of the double event of looming In i"
with President HAYES and his Inauguration
today. And, oddly as II may seem at this
time, the Rev. Mr.. TOWNSEND, Chaplain Of
the Democratic House, performed the bap
tism. Mr.. STEELE Is the great grandson of
the gallant Commodore BARNEY aud OF Judge
CHASE, one Of the signers of the Declaration
OF Independence, and his grandmother, Mrs.
CHASE BARNEY, was the last surviving daugh-
ter of any Of the signers.

CRUCIFIxIoN IN AMERIcA-Out in the
country we have the Mexican peni-
tents, whose nominal Christianity has
only served to determine the time and
manner of their penances. Last week
returning from Saguache, tried a
short cut, anti, riding overfa little hill
suddenly came upon band of four.
Naked, except for pair of drawers,
they were walking barefooted through
the snow, chanting some melancholy
strain, and lashing their bare bodies
with strips of soapweed leaves. 1t is
no poetical eXaggeration, but the lit
eral fact, that the blood was flowing
rapidly down them. Their bodies
looked like raw steaks, and the heavy
sound of the lashes told the reality of
the fagcllations. Some little distance
from them stood large wooden cross,
which, | was told, had been carried
in procession by one last year, It's
weight must have nearly broken his
back. Upon it they crucifed one OF
their number last spring, binding him
fast by ropes, and leaving him so long
that he died. &
