A I*ARTY of twelve men are about to leave this country for Jerusalem, to assist iu rebuilding the Tcmpie of fMomao. THK Ciucinnatli people are not ex- i cited over the gold fine in Clermont county. They have undoubtedly heard of "Salted mines," aud do not enthuse over Ohio's gold mines worth a cent. 808 IxeiKKAOLL, having disponed J of "Hades," and banished all fear of j that institution to his satisfaction, is How lecturing against the Supreme Court of the United States ou the ; enormity of its decision on the civil i service law. A FATAL cyclone visited Springfield, Missouii, on Monday last, in which live persons were killed and thirty | wounded. Great damage wus done to buildings ami other property. Many bouses, and among them the Catholic ' church, a brick structure just erected, w,re entirely demolished, and all in the track of the tornado more or !e* | injured. IT is reported that Judge Folger, the Secretary of the Treasurer, is to be appointed a judge of the Couit of , Claims, to supply the vacancy made by the resignation of J. C. Bancroft Davis. Kenneth Rayner, Solicitor of the Treasury, is also said to bo a claimant for the office, iu virtue of a promise made by the late fraud Presi dent for the first vacancy in this Gourt. I How far Arthur may feel bound to . honor the contracts of llaye is vet to be aeen. JL'lh.e Bi'TLKK, of the United States District Court gives a warning to postal writers iu a recent sentence imposed upon Patrick S.

The law im|se*a pen- i ally, in the discretion of the court, to one year in prisou, or a fine. The j Judge chose the latter, and fined the offender $lOO. I IT is sa'NL General Su-edinen, the { brave old soldier who died at Toledo, <)hi, Mine days a_,o, was a poor man, and that active measure* are being taken to provide reiief for his family, I aa well as the erection of a monument ! to hi* memory. Tire friends of the grand old hero of ''Chicamagua" j eh mid see that his family are first lib ) erally provided for. No concern ahout the monument need be apprehended, j That will Ire sure to rome. Neither his neighbors nor hiscouicrv could af- I I ford to fail in that. r I* the aWnoe of Congress, Wash- ! ington i always in condition to have something to cover the dull season, j .Recently it was the star-route swindle, now it is Kilhorn'ssuit to recover dam ages for alleged false imprisonment, hy order nf the House of Representa tives. He was a contumacious wit neea, or rather refused to produce the books to uncover alleges! frauds being investigated before Cangress, aud was placed in custody of Mr. Thompson, the Sargeant-at arms, by the authority of Congress, who confured him in the | capitol for some daws. For this in- I dignity ho elainies $350,000 damage L ns the lowest sum that would mrapen fc sate and heal his wouuded honor. We Hbelieve Mr. Kilborn does not claim |ptbis nice litlla sum as an additioo to p his private fortune merely, but to vin dicate a principle in law, that a roan's ' private pefiers and businesa are sa cred, but however that may be be brought suit against Mr. TUompeoo, (be officer of tho House. Tho Chancer in 'Eighty-Four. The election returns of 1882 and j 1883 do not of themselves furnish an infallible basis on which to predicate the result of tlri Presidential election of IMH4 ; but couple these with the j fact thst no perceptible reaction has j since taken place, and that the changes of political sentiment thereby 1 indicated have evidently not reached 1 their culmination, and they become sufficiently authoritative to enable a reasonable forecast. We have only to satisfy ourselves a* to the direction which the popular current is taking—the depth ami force | anil meaning of it, and the chances of ' it* diversion in some other direction I —in order to foot up the probable rna j jority of this or that candidate iu the next electoral college. It will appear, uot only to the I)em | ocratic raind, but to the uveiage iutel j ligent mind, whatever its political in- I elinafioo, that this current is setting towards a revolution ; that the feeling \ jo! the country is becoming riper every i day for a change, ami that the cry coming up in many quarters to "turn ! the rascals out," however much the groiesqueuess and extravagance of the j i expression may be scouted at, will prove to be in reality the shibboleth and inspiration of the people. There is everything in the attitude; jof the Democratic party to indicate harmony of action and success of! achievement, in the coming Pre*iden- ; lial year. There is little to warrant the lielief that the Republican party iu its next nominating convention will i conjure any spoil potent enough to heal its rankling sores, to conciliate ; its factious resentments or to exorcise I the spectre of tbe Second of July. The Republican party has more than fulfilled its mission. It has over , lapped and ovr done it. To rai a sectional iue wilh its own Supreme court on the Civil Rights decision •eems to be its only alternative. The tendency of things is toward a new deal. Even an untoward result this week I'll Virginia or New Jersey or Peon-, svlvania would nut prove it otherwise, j Au untoward result in New York is so far down among the improhabili- I tics that it does notenc>r into tbe cal-1 culation. I But what does the figures show ? [ That nineteen States with an electoral vote of 209 may be set down as I)em- j ocratic beyond a doubt. We include Indiana, California, New Jersey and New York iu the list. We concede to the Republicans fourteen states,! wilh an aggragate vote of 118, iuclud- i i iug Colorado. Massachusetts and I.li- ; nois. This leaves five states with an electoral vote of seventy four to be | | classed as doubtful—Connecticut, Ne j vada, Ohio, Pennsylvania aud Vir ginia. To make it clearer we append a table of states and the electoral vote ! of each.
