FRIDAY MORNING, FEB. l6, 1874.

The Senate has confirmed the nomination
of Mr.. Wise, as minister to Rio, and sun
dry other minor appointments but ours are
not in the list. The Tribune says that
cabinet meeting was called on Saturday, to
consider the subject Of the Judgeship.-
Upshur, Henshaw and Porter. favored Van
Ness: Spencer and Wicklihc took ground
for Nelson, the present Chief Justice of New
York but no decision was made. II is
added, however, that the locofoco members
of the House have unanimously pe,itioned
for the appointment Of Nelson. They have
no faith in Van Ness. We notice also that
the New York Bar, at late meeting called
to consider this subject, took occasion 10 re-
pudiate the idea, that they were in favor Of
placing this cosmopolte upon the bench
But this, perhaps, will constitute the very
reason why Tyler will nominate him. But
there is Senate.

Total,

To secure majority in the Senate when
Mr.. CLAY comes in as President, IN March,
1915, as only 16 Wings then hold over, it
will be seen that the Wings must carry
majority in the Legislatures of 10 States,
which will give them &c Senators, (including
those who hold over.) and leave party ques-
tons to be settled by the casting vote of the
ce-President. The Loco-F ocos have al
ready gained two States from US, viz: Mis-
sissippi and Michigan, and will confidently
expec, to carry New York by their present
large majority in the State Senate, which
will probably control the joint ballot in the
Legislature, unless we carry the City next
Fall, as we must. On the other hand, the
Wings have chances to gain Senators in
Maine, Ohio and Pennsylvania. We urge
upon our friends IN all of the States where
U. S. Senators are TO be elected this year
and next, to strain every nerve to carry their
Legislatures. Tribune.

The trial of Mrs. Gilmour for tho murder

to adopt the 21st Rule, and to dsurb the
Tariff, we're successfully and repeatedly re-

Revenue Tariff bill, as the consideration Of
their continued support of Van Buren,

FiRR.-A building used as a store house
ny tho satisfactory company in this village,
was totally consumed by fire last Monday
morning. The immediate loss was not very
extensive, but it will cause a serious incon-
ven'ence, and probably suspend the opera
tion OF the factory for some time, as the build
ing contained the pots used in the factory,
and none other can be obtained under con-
siderable deIay.-Dcmocrat.
O%We regret to learn tina, the dwelling
house occupied by DR.. o. II. Sax,on in Shsl-
burnc, was destroyed by fire last week, and
all the furniture was consumed also. Tho
family we're on visit away from home, the
house being left in charge of servan, GIRL

Still another. The dwelling house Of Mr..
JEDEDIAH HARRINGTON, at Wnooski City,
was burned down on Tuesday evening, and
we are sorry to add that little or none of the
| furniture was saved. 1t was a two story
wooden building, and insured in the Mutual
for $3.50; but this will cover bu, small por-
ton of the loss. The venerable old " Box
en-" which is now stationed at the Falls, was
promptly on the ground, well manned, and
efficiently directed, and was instrumental in
saving large amount Of property. But for
lis aid, Miag'y's establishment would uneue,-
tionaby have fallen prey. One of the Dr.
reclors of the Mutual, from Montpelier, who
happened 10 be present on the occasion, ex-
presses himself fully satisfied with The whole
management of the affair, and awards espe-
cial praise to the Engine and its company
The fire is understood to have originated
from Frenchman's pipe in the barn.
