TlinrsJay Evcuing, Dec. 23, 1875.

It is gratifyidg to observe that in tbe "make up" of the committees of the House, Speaker Kerr has given t:) the West and South that promimnce which their numerical strength and value on the tax duplicate requires that they should have. Here, tofore the Northeast has secured the best positions on the leading committees, and with that vantage poiut of position exercised a control over the Leg* islation of the nation which their numbers upon the floor would scarcely warrant. For this fact however there has been a reasou, hot without weight. The people East of the Ateganies have a habit of saving a good thing, fco to speak when they get it, get is not an Infrequent thing to find at the head of the delegation of an Eastern State, some man who has grown gray into the public service. Strong men intellectually to begin with, as their continued reelection shows, and fortified by an intimate knowledge of parliamenary law which nothing but experience npon the floor of the house can teacb, they are leaders by the divine right of superior attainments and commanding abilities. Speakers with an ejTe single to the public ser» vice, and desiring tc have the strong men of the party at the head of tbe important committees have been almost compelled to select them from the East. With us, there is a habit of sending new men every two or four years, and it is seldom that a Western Congressman is continued in office after a third term. The result of this difference between the East and West has been apparent in the composition of the leading Committees of the House. Speaker Kerr has made anew departure and we believe a good one. It is certainly a change which cannot fail to be gratifying to the West and South.

Without question in the present

iOVUHlUU tU6

really most important Committee of the House this winter will be that on Banking and Currency. Heretofore the Committee of Ways and Means,, has bt?eii considered tlie most im-, portant, and the chairman of it, by virtue of his position, has been usu# ally the leader of the Hou8\ Just at present how~ ever, the absorbing question before the people id that of finances, and since all the nostrums which niay be presented in the House, wiil undoubtedly be referred to that committee, there to ba smothered, or to have the breath of life breathed into them, it is patent that the committ* ee on Banking and Currency, is destined for this winter, at least to exercise a controlling influence .in the shaping of affairs. In this connectit is gratifying not alone to the Ga

but must be to all

real sound Democrats everywhere that Speaker Kerr has made this committee one of the strongest in the list and one of the soundest and safest. It is needless to say that it is in fa* vor of the old original Democratic money which giveth its weight to the pocket and a color to the purse. S. S. Cox, albeit his endowment of wit has led him into so many sparkling passages of humor, in the run_ ning debates, that he has won arepu. tation as a wit rather than a States man, is, nevertheless, a gentleman of great natural ability, and has been a hard student all his life. It is not saying too much for him that he is ona of the best informed men in Congress upon (he subject of finances He is a sound and uncompromisin S advocate of hard money, iand in the debates that" will come upou this question we confidently expect to see him win for himself a fame for solid attainments which will pale his reputation, as a wit bright as it is.

Mr. Payne, the second member on the committee, is from Ohio, and is also a hard money man of the strictest taith. He was conspicuous, in the late Billallen Waterloo fight, for hissilence, and he sulked at his home like Achilles in his tent before Troy. It was a silence as painful and meaning business and costing votes as much as that of Senator Thurman. With one exception the committee is for hsrJ money. We shall expect the Committee on Banking and Currency to strew flowers, plant ivy, erect a monument and write an epitaph for that unfortunate little rag baby which was conceived in sin, brought forth in iniquity and perished without benefit of clergy.

Hakfs Speech Before the Knir England Society. New York, Dec. 22.—At tho seventh annual dinner of the New England Society to-night, President Bailey presided, having at his right Pae&ident Grant, and on hia left General Sherman. Many distinghished persons were present, and responded to toasts. President Grant did not-"Speak, but General Sherman, in reply to the army and navy, said: "Upon tha civilization of New England is based the civilization of North America. The black man is as free as I am. The Japanese are tree to come here, so are tho Chinese but the civilization of New England will remain, and govern this continent. The. New England man, go where he will, carries a centre which, enlarging, will affect everj'thing it comes in contact witb. He i* the embodiment of all tbe English speaking el in and patriotism,

Referring to the result of the late war, he declared there never was such an example of tho conquerors giving the conquered the same rights they themselves posessed. The moment the vanquished laid down their arms, we said to thom, "Go home go to work lor the flag which is the common flag of our homes." I say to every southern man who would go with us heart and hand to build np this land, they are welcome just as if born on the yeiy surface of Plymouth Rock. Bat if they cherish any hopes for tbe old conflict of storm it wiil arise over their heads ten times as heavy as the last one. I speak for the army snd navy, tbe men of bone and muscle, the brain and sinew that aggregate an American. He referred to the hard times, and said the trouble is that the peeple flock too much to cities I ask them to come west. [Laughter.] There is no trouble in St. Lonis of not having plenty to eat and to drink, and we will give you a hoar ty welcome and God spoed, to the best of land west of us. If the people of New York will learn a lesson of their Pilgrim fathers, and go back to somewhat of their economy, tho National debt will be extinguished in live years, and specie payment would come naturally. Let us go back to the times before the war, and if necessary I will myself give an example of earning my own living, but in doing so, let us still keep ourselves prepared for war whenever it comes. Pet us keep the art of war before us, so that we will not have the mortification of sending to Germany for soldiers to drill our soldiers in tho next war. [Great chearing ]_

EXPLOSION.

Terrible Loss of Life ami Limb

Boston, Dec. 22.—Shortly before 4 o'clock this evening, a terrible explo sion occurred in South Boston, by which a large number of persons were injured, and several killed. As yet it is impossible to learn the cause of the explosion or the extent of the damage. The large gas main run" niag under the Federal street.bridge to South Boston, and thence along the water's edge under the pavement on Federal street, exploded with a loud report, tearing up the pavement for a distance of 150 feet or more. The street was thronged with people at the time, and many were burned under the debris. Crosby's grain tvarebouse was badly shattered, and will have to be taken down. The foreman was instantly killed, and it is supposed that several persons were blown into the water. Several dead bodies have, already been taken out.

Boston. Dec. 22. A list of tbe kill-

fatally injured 4 seriously hurt 9: slightly injured, 3. Seven persons are missing and are supposd to have been blown into the water and drowned, As yet there is no postiye knowledge of,tbeotioAebf "the explosion, but it is supposed the recent cold weather caused the pipe to burst and the ground becoming impregnated with gas, which ignited from the communicated gas, and caused the explosion, An eye witness states that the first .intimation was

a bright flash

about midway of the causewtoy, followed by sharp explosion, paving stones, gravel and debris flying in all directions, and almost immediately thereafter the causeway on the right side, under which ran the gas main, fell over into the river, carrying with it several persons, who were stunned, injured, or killed by the explosion. The number of these is not yet ascertained, but it is feared several were buried under the debris at the .bot torn of the river. The pavement was completely torn up for a distance of 175 feet..

ffloodj and Sankey.

Philadelphia, Dec. 22.—The audience at the depot church to-day was the largest that has yet attended a discourse on the subjects of prayer and faith.

The attendance to-night was not so large as usual. Mr. Moody called the attention of his hearers to one word, "Compassion," and in order to bring his theme into prominence, cited many instances from the scriptures where tbe word was employed, and gave an account of the cleansing of the leper when Jesus had compassion on him. The speaker stated that a fallen woman had attended the services oh Sunday she had been convinced, had gone into the inquiry room and been converted. She has now left her sinful abode and gone back to. her home. The inquiry rooms to-night were well filled. There will be no preaching on Friday or Saturday nights.

Mot Franklin, La., via. New Orleans, Dec. 22 —A few mouths previous to the adjournment of the parish Court here this evening, a paper coutainiug the following was presented to R. B. Mentz, parish Judge. "The undersigned members of tho bar of the perish of St. Marys, acting under a sense of duty which wo owe to ourselves as members of your Court, and as a representative of those who are interested in a pure administration of tho law, both civil and criminal, feel the necessity of calling on you in this formal manner to resign your office of parish Judge of the parish of St. Marys. To us your incompetency is manifest. The iuterested motives which iu most cases influence tour decisions, are palpable, and iu all cases which come before yon, the wide departure from all that should give dignity and weight and confidence in the rulings of a court,o.f justiee is beyond il question. In the inteiest therefore of our profession, and of pure administration of law and good order and peace of this community, we request you to tender your resignation of the office which you hold* (Signed,) Frederick Gates, D. Calfrey, N. J. Foster, A. C. Allen, B. Shepherd, and A. C. Damartrail for self, and for B. F. Winchester and S.

Lanaux. To which the Jndgi replied: "I have tried to perform ujj duty faithfully and impartially. And inasmuch as the signers of this|paper did not vote for tne at the la it election, I shall continue to administer the functions of my office until my constituents—meaning the coiored people—call upon me to resign,"

Thus tbe matter stands. It is the intention of the members ot the bar to appeal to the next Legislature in order to secure his impeachment by that body.
