A few days ago Mr. Hlaiuc had the load in the Cincinnati race; ! yesterday he was counted dead; to day 1 lie is on the track again, as livelv r.s ever.

All the attaeks against Hlainc have come iroui Uepublican sources, but his enemies have bad no trouble in finding j idiotic Democrats to aid them. There j aie some gentlemen in the House, who seem to think they can elect a Democratic J'resident, by destroying Ucpubliean candidates. They arc the same sort of men who oppose the nomination of Tilden at St. Louis, probably because be is the only man they can elect; and they will secure the del eat of their party in the future, as they have in the past, it allowed to *tui? tho machine." Till-: KMPKItOll's VISIT. Dom Pedro seems capable of performing an immense amount of business, and yet to have lime for social enjoyment. He lias paid us a second visit. Soon after bis arrival, he went to sec the tinlihished Washington monument. He and his suit surveyed it with interest, and offered at once the best proof of that fact and the most powerful reproof to our own people, by subscribing a liberal amount toward its completion; he, himself, promising also to send a piece of marble from JJrazil, to be used in building the shaft, lie also visited Mount Vernon, in company with the English and l>ra/.ilian Ministers, and other society notables, and is represented as st and in lt. uncovered, tor some time over the tomb of him who ha* been fitly called "The founder of liberty, the friend of man." The reception given at the English Legation by Sir Edward Thornton, on the evening of the name day, is described by our local papers as altogether the grandest affair of the season. It certainly should have been as it is the first time that Washington has had the honor of o m entertaining a crowned King and Queen, bom I'edro, with his suite:, thoroughly examined the public school system of tins city, and expressed himself much pleased; in many schools taking part in the examination of clasmck. Amid all his activity in the pursuit of knowledge, we have not heard that the Em|*croi' made any inquiry into the peculiar ta'ent of Ainer officials of the present day, viz; the ability to spend i>o0,000 a year on a salary of $8,000. lie does not seem to have been interested in our "comprehensive system of public improvements" so far as to inquire into the sudden fortune of the man who plan j .. mi. _ i . i ... t neu iu j no ihci is, nowevtT, no was in too big a hurry all the time lor the details ot these and similar transactions, tor the study ol which Washing! on possesses such admirable sources ot imfoi mation. 8PKAK Kit K Kit It went into the committee room yesterday sick and weak, with a deathly pa lor on his face, and submitted his statement in answer to Ilirncy's charge that he received a certain sum ot money tor the appointment of a lieutenant in the army.

The convention was presided over by AI be it Fikef Sovereign Grand Comniandor ot thin order ?.v. 12 1 ? ? - J 4-vai lilt- OOJUlueril JUl'lSUlCllOU. 1 Utt most notable and into renting episode during the session wan the presenlation to General I'ike ot a Iwautilul and costly Masonic jewel, by the brethren of the order. The presentation was made by Robert Toombs, of Georgia. The jewel is a gold double-headed eagle, studded with two hundred and sixty diamond a. In the center of the eagle's heart is a largo amethyst in the form of a triangle, in which in inserted the figures ,403," in gold. Over the head ot the egle is a crown compos ed entirely of rubies and diamonds. In its tajjus the eagle holds a flaming sword ol gold, front which is suspenda scroll bearing a suitable inscription. The cost ot the jewel was $h00. Over fitly members ot the Scottish Kile Irom all parts of the United Stales were present; and a grand batupiel followed. TUB MONKV GIVKN Oi l. The fact that the receipts of the Government Irom every source are falling oil, and that the deficit this Jjscal year will be nearly twenty millions, has a.vaketied a new interest in the labor ol the House Appropriation committee, and it now appears that w hat w as begun in the spirit ot i etrenclunent and economy will have to t?e carried out as a necessity. Jt is the opinion ol carelul thinkers that there will be no resumption ol busiI tiess until after the Presidential elecI lion, and, in all probability, not until ' the next Administration is inait guratcd. It is estimated that the. receipts dunntr the ncii. j fiscal ywar will bo between thirt y and j lolly iiiiiliotiR less than the estimates ! for tlio present li&cal year, that?in I round numbers?the decrease will be about the sumo as the reductions proposed by the House. For ibis reason, ; ' here is good ground to believe that ! the Senate conference committee will j no longer oppose the reductions, and | that the Diplomatic and Consular bill j w 4.1 pass substantially as it left the House. Clayton's civil rkkyick hill, No bill lias been introduced in either House this session, whiih more plainly bears the ear-murks oi ignorance and deuiagogucry than the bill introduced by the Senator from Arkansas providing that civil appointments shall hereafter bo' equally distributed among the various Stales and Territones and the District of Columbia. Sucli a law would do more to still further corrupt our Civil Service than any that could be enacted, and entire U'iilil. nl rixj^ni ?ni iiAininiiii iixiid* 11 * w only been eo united by the efforts of poor sensible llamlin lo reorganize the postal service. The whole design is to add to the power ol members, to the end that the patronage may be used tor the benefit ot the Republican party. It will not receive the slightest consideration in the House, nor do 1 believe it will'in the Senate. statu rights. There seems to be at least the prospect ot some difficulty regarding the ' election of Congressmen in Indiana and Ohio next tall. The State Constitutions provide tor election* in October, while the law of Cong revs tixes November as the time for holding such election in all Slates. Morion has written to the Chairman of the Indiana Republican State Committee that the elections will be legal if held in October, yet it is possible that a contest will be necessary before it will be decided. lDuiu's. Disgrace* Sciit'Yi.Kit Coi.fax went out of public lite oil the lid ol March, 1873, with the brand ol Corruption and perjury stamped upon his brow, llis way was lo alfect superior morality, to lecture before the Young Men's Christian Associations, to ingratiate himself with the Odd Fellows and kindred societies, and in this way lo gain the confidence of the public, the better to practise his rascalities. For a long time he was a suceesslul fraud, but the Credit Mobilier investigation exposed fiis true character, ami tinishad a career which was a sham Iroin its start. James G. Blaine succeeded Col lax an Speaker ami will soon follow him into exile and disgrace, lie did not pretend to he a Christian politician or to put oil the robes ot piety. On tin.* contrary, he set up to be a man ol the world, pandered to social desire#, cultivated the weakness ot human nature, mocked at eveiy form of religion, and sought to he recognized as a liberal and even generous lellow. By these and other arts he won a certain popularity and utilized it tor his personal profit. it is now c? nam, and wiii !?< ? -tab lislied by tho most conclusive proofs, that ever since IMaine entered Congress, and especially during his |T* INET ideiit Journal.

Cul. Tom 8cotJt saves himrcli on i this I hi 11 cover lor u. deceptive transae- I | lion, and others who have staled and ! sworn wJlli a purpose to save Maine, 1 re I real behind the same prolc.vt with 1 a lull know ledge /hat it watt lubricated ' to deceive the public. Maine himself, " however, has convicted them ofeollu- 1 sion with him, for in one of the loiter* 1 to Fisher which he caplurad Ivom 1 I M a 11 i?ra.:i. ho urtjes as a reason for a ' r', 9 \ J more liberal sell lenient with him, that 1 . he had not the benefit ol the .VC-1,000 personally, because the money passed I out ol his hands in two days to repay J the .Maine men lo whom he had sold 1 j the Little I loch bonds. 1 Maine thus contradicts Lis statement 1 I made deliberately lo the Mouse, and 1 ' his sworn explanation belcre the coin- 1 niittec. It is r.ol surprising, therefore, that he should have resorted to the most desperate means to gel possession | ol evidence under his own hand whieii ! would have made his utter ruin ine| vilable at the same time. He knew j what l111r coiTSpoiidenee contained, i and he also knew that il spread helorc i the country, his name would be hope* I lessly blasted. It was easy to see, when Maine objected so peremptorily to .MeCluieVs testimony, iu regard to Caldwell1* statements to him about tl.c bonds, and vehemently protested against Curry's more recent testimony, icierposing technical pleas and legal <1 nibbles at every turn, that lie was guilty ot ail that bad been charged and did not dare to confront the bottom tacts. Conscience does not act in thai way. 11 seeks instead ot shirking inquiry. It demands the most ex. ' h iUsiivc search to silence slander. The witness Robinson, who delivered the package ol bonds to Maine lrom Caldwell, was coached at the latter'* house before he appeared as a w itness, and was made to forget his ' own recent declarations before various i persons, thai the parcel in question did Contain $20,000 ot bonds.

To bo sure, there are, outside the enclosure, plenty of moderate priced restaurants, but the fun ot that, .is, that once outside the fence you can't get back without the loi?s of an other 50 cent piece, ho yon have your choice of going hungry or squandering the savings ot a laboious life time on Centennial sandwiches, which are so light that, when dropped, they float to the ground like a feather.
