to the laws Agent Bennett says that there
is need for an improved judicial system;
that conflicts of jurisdiction arise, and
'sThis very complicated condition tends TO
leave of cases for which there appears no
remedy" that the United States courts
are all hampered in their operations by a
scarcity of funds; the apprehension OF
many criminals is prevented thereby, and
the commission of crime Is encouraged.

of lands in severslty he says. is growing in

invested large sums in church property.

There was a lively debate in the Ken
lucky constitutional convention the other
day over a resolution to eXpunge slavery
from the constitution. and it was finally
referred TO a committee Such BourbOnism
is almost as absurd as keeping up war
taxes twenty-five years after the close Of
the rebellion-k G. Star.
The Star is too critical. 1t should bear
in mind that the point referred to has
been the stock argument in favor of the
proposed constitutional convention in
Kentucky for the past quarter of cen
tury, and it was too much to expect the
subject to be disposed of without a dis
play of forensic endeavor that had been
years in accommodating. The negro qUes-
ton will not be given the same import
ance and consideration in that body as it
has down in Mississippi: the element is
not sufficiently numerous in Kentucky,
to require it.

An ingenius German mechanic has in
vented a cast iron brick which, it is
claimed, is superior in every way to the
ordinary earth brick and but little more
expensive. 1t becomes more evident
every day that the output of iron from
the mines of the world, great as it Is and
increasing as rapidly as it is. will not be
greater than the demands of many years,
if ever. Except for food, iron enters in
some shape or form into almost every
thing in common use.

The Temple of Incas.

A correspondent writes from Peru to
The Germania that the remains of a
temple, dating back from the period of
the Incas, have been discovered while
clearing the ground for small place on
one of the ailments of the upper Mara
non, in the great plain which lies at the
foot of the eastern Cordilleras. There
was an inclOsing wall of great extent.
fully eighty inches thick, the Enclosure
within being divided by other walls into
halls and smaller chambers. The plan
and the painted inscriptions resemble
what has been found in other places as
cartained to be ancient Peruvian tenn
pies.
Hence it is inferred that this also was
a similar temple. Several buildings of
this kind have been found scattered over
Peru. The Spaniards demolished them
and foods bearing quantities Of sand
from the Cordilleras covered over the
remains, to be succeeded later by a
growth of shrubs, and even trees, quite
hiding from view the masonry under
meath. The Peruvian government has
been moved by this recent discovery, and
some regular excavations will be under
taken on sites where temples and even
towns are known to have existed prior
to the conquest.
