The building and all It's contents, except
the personal property of the students who
roomed on the third floor, from which moth

will, We trust, be restored early the coming
season.
In tho meantime, college work will go on
as usual, convenient arrangements having

Some newspapers are anjmadverting upon
Matt Carpenter and Casey Young because
they appear as attorneys for the Louisiana
lottery against the government, while being
liable to take legislative action on the lottery
question at almost any moment. Time was
when such a thing would be regarded as dis
honorable, but public morality has been
prostituted SO much since the Republican
pasty came into power that nothing is
thought of Senators and Representatives

KILLING OFF THE CANDIDATES.

KILLING OFF THE CANDIDATES.. 5
Hon. William @. Cloudy, of Chicago, one
of tho members of the National Democratic
committee, has been interviewed on the sub
ject of the probable candidates of that party
for the Presidency next year. MIR. Cloudy
is naturally man Of clear discernment and
good judgment, and his views are worthy OF
more than passing consideration. He is,
of course, favorable to the selection of Chi
cago Is tho place for tho convention, but
thinks that the question of location will be
determined by the section from which the
candidate will be chosen. If On Eastern
man shall be selected as the candidate, Sara
toga will probably got the convention. If .
Western man shall appear to be the most
available IS q candidate, tho convention will
probably go to Chicago or Louisville.
As to candidate, MIR. Cloudy 10 spparent-
~ in great deal Of quaudary. He thinks
if the convention was held to-day Horatio
Seymour would in all probability carry off
the prize, but that his chances will grow re-
mote day by day from this time forward.
He has no doubt whatever of his acceptance
in case Of his nomination, though he insists
that Mr. Seymour is not and will not become
candidate, but will rather discourage his
own nomination than otherwise. Bayard
has no chance at all, nor have Parker or
Tilden. While he says Mr.. Hendricks has
more personal friends than any other of the
candidates mentioned, he regards the chance
Of his obtaining the first place as exceed
ingly remote-not sufficiently favorable to in
duce one to 60 out of his way to ad-
vocate them. Thus it will appear that there
are buttwo names prominently mentioned
in connection with the Office that have not
been left ont of the calculations of Mr..
Cloudy, and these two are David Davis and
Thurman. Although he does not say as
much, We are led to infer that MIR. Cloudy
favors one or the other of these two gentle.
men-probably tho first named, with whom
he has been on intimate personal terms for
many years past. There is, indeed, very
little doubt of the fact that the Illinois dele
cation will show solid front in favor of
UUNko OpSlos bHu Iuot VAlo WILL OAOuSAV
about by united action on the part of the
prominent Democrats Of Chicago, with
Mr.. Cloudy at their head. The
party might 60 further and fare much
worse, for Judge Davis is man
of commanding. ability, strict personal integ-
rity, and in every way worthy Of elevation
to that high honor. He would make the best
President We have had since the days of John
Adams, adjoining the Office more than the
Office adorned him.
1t is too early, in our opinion, to bury all
of the candidates in as summary 4 manner
as Mr.. Cloudy has done, for it is quite pos
sibIe that several if not all of them will ex-
hibit degree of vitality that is not at pres
emit expected of them. Yet, it must be con-
fessed that there is much of common sense
in what the gentleman has said. One thing
is certain-all of those who aspire to the dis
tinotion, cannot got it, and the country will
no doubt be full of sore heads after tho ad-
ionrnrnept ~ the Dannocratio convention

CRAVE EVENTS IN INDIA.

1t is very evident that some important
movement is on foot among the native popu-
lation of India and adjacent countries that
may very soon have an important bearing
upon the future Of that country, and influ.
enoe the future Of the European residents of
Hindoostan. Advices from Lahore repre-
sent that Afehans in small parties are tray
cling to different parts of India. Every
train for the interior takes from twenty to
forty Afghans. The authorities are on the
alert and will watch the travellers. Another
curious circumstance is the fact that large
numbers Of Arabs are constantly arriving at
Bombay, and although they are stopped at
railroad stations whenever there is any
ground for suspicion, they make their way
to various cities of the interior by roads.
These movements are, to say the least.
suspicious, and to those who have studied
the Mohammedan character portend much
danger to British interests at the East. There
has long been feeling of unrest with Brit
ish domination in that country, having it's
beginning among the Mohammedans. This
feeling has been intensified of late by tho
campaign in Afghanistan, where the entire
population are followers OF the prophet, and
it looks very much as if conspiracy had
been entered into by all the neighborine
tribes to overthrow the power of the invader
in Asia. The object of both the Afghans
and the Arabs is, without question, to stir
up revolt among the Sepoys and other fol-
| lowers of Moharnnoed, and bring about q
repetition of the bloody scenes enacted in
1857. The race is treacherous one, and in
the name of the prophet feel justified in
perpetrating any atrooity, no matter how
repugnant to tho enlightenment of the age

pore yet causes shudder Of horror all owe,
the civilized world, and it is within the
range of possibilities that the next six months
will signalize an outbreak that, unless ex-
traordinary precautions are taken, will re.
suit in even greater horrors.
Though the British government in India
has allowed all subjects of the empire abso.
lutte religious liberty, the Mohammedan and
the Christian faiths are radically sntagonis-
tic. They cannot endure together in the
Same country. Both are aggressive, and
they will inevitably come in conflict soone,
or later. A religious war is always one OF
extraordinary barbarity, especially where
Mohammedanism is concerned. Such m
outbreak IS is feared, and seems to be in
course Of preparation in India, would prob
ably mark the darkest page in the history Of
the world. It is to be hoped that no means
will be left unemployed which shall seem
to offer hope of preventing it. Great
Britain will have the sympathy of the whole
world in the impending struggle if it cannot
be forestalled, and the progress of events
will be watched with keen interest.

CALLERS ON GRANT.

Members Of the Peace Union and Methodist
Preachers Pay Their Respects, and Grant
Makes Two Little Speeches, Tickling tho
Fancies of Both Crowds.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 26.-At 1890 o'clock
this morning members of the Universal
Peace union called upon Gen. Grant. Alfred
H. Love, president of the union, delivered
an address of welcome. Gen. Grant, reply
ing, said although he had been brought up a
soldier he was of opinion there should be
some way of preventing the spilling of in
nocent blood in struggle in which but q
few of men were interested. He looked for
ward to the time when a court could be es-
tablished which would be recognized by all
nations, and which would be the means OF
settling ali internal differences
of opinion. He also said
that in the course of his
travels he had found that there was not q
great desire for such court as there is here.
So far as the eastern question ia concerned;
he thought it would be long before European
nations would consent to settle by arbitra-
ton, for all countries bordering on the coast
were extremely Jealous of each other.
Mrs. DR.. Sarah T. Rogers then presented
the General with a large portrait of Lucretia
Mott. This ended the reception, and after
handshaklpR the General Withdrew.
Members Of the Peace union had hardly
left when delegation of seventy five Metho-
dist olergymen entered. In few moments
Gen. Grant came into the room, escorted by
Bishop Simpson and Geo. w. Childs. The
bishop introduced the delegation. Rev. DR..
Henry Warren delivered an address, after
which the general was called on for q speech.
Turning to DR.. Warren he said: There was
no doubt about the loyalty of the Methodist
church in the North and there was no doubt
of its disloyalty in the South. What is true
of the loyalty of the Methodist church in the
North might be said in regard to the
churches of other denominations, with not
perhaps, the same unanimity, though, how
ever, to save them, I thank yQQ for the
words you have spoken.
Those present were then personally pre-
sented to Gen. Grant and Mrs, Grant, who
then accompanied Bishop Simpson to biz
residence, where quiet lunch was partaken
of. The mayor and committee of the coun.
ellis called on Gen. Grant this morning and
babe him farewell. The general expressed
himself as we'll pleased with his visit and
entertainment in this city.
