The Senate consists of sixty-six members. The
hve not included as above are Stephen A. Douglas
democrat, (lllinois) A. Kennedy, American
(Maryiand); the Senator to be elected from Louisi,
ana, who may be Mr. Soue, and the two undecided
senators from Oregon-in all five. If fKansas is
admitted, this will probably increase the Republi
can column to twenty nine. Much will depend up
on the course OF Douglas and Kennedy, and the re-
suit OF the Oregon election.
THE PHILADELPHIA CONTESTED ELECTION CASE
The Ledger of yesterday says:-The evidence ir
the investigation Saturday into the altered
fraud committed in the Fourth Ward returns, by
which MIR. Butler is declared elected over Mr.. Leh
man, makes the fraud so palpabe that District At
torney Mann at once denouncedit as such, and pro
nounced it as such and promised to use his endea
Vors to trace out the wrong doers. Several of the
election 0fhcers swear that the paper presented by
Mr.. BreIy as the return of that ward is not the
one signed and that their signatures are forgeries
Fortunately, the precinct officers retained memo
randa OF the precinct vote and the real vote of the
ward is able 10 be shown. This elects Mr.. Lehman

Ders OF the Legislature, the Courier saws:
so far as our information extends there is re-
markable unanimity-even for South Carona-in
the political convictions of the members elect
They have been very wisely and properly chosen
without special pledges to the details Of the re-
sistance which, in all human probability, will be
devolved on the South by the results of the pend
ing election for the Presidency.
The electors have wisely selected in most cases
men too well known to need pledging, but as to
the absolute and imperative necessity for repeant
or defensive action on the part of the South in the
event referred to, there is remarkable unanimity
In some of the districts local issues we're discussed
and in others great State Issues not political but
we have not yet received the information necessary
to report the composition of the House, and of the
half OF the Senate, according to these issues.

DEsTRucrIoN OF THE CorroN AND SUGAR CRop IN
LouIsIANA.-Full detsils of the disasters attendant
upon the late terrific tornado in Louisiana continue
to come in from the interior parishes of the State
The amount of damage done to the sugar manufac

Accoun rs from the cotton regions are deplorable
The storm made complete sweep of every opened
boil on the plantations we have heard from. It's
disastrous effects extended as high as Vicksburg
and how far West we cannot say. The loss from
destruction to cotton alone will probably amount
to over ST, ,000,0 600. Loss on sugar crop we are
unable to estimate. The loss in Baton Rouge. in
cludng coal boats, will reach fully Sl0O 900. Al

Inc next interesting question is how will the
Senate stand after the 4th of March next. Ken
lucky has elected John G. Breckenridge. Democrat
in place of John j. Crittenden, American; James
A. Pearce, Democrat, has been reelected from Ma
ryland; Salmon P. Chase, Republican, elected from
Ohio, in place of George E. Pugh, Douglas Demo

calculate that a Republican will succeed Hanniba

MIR; Seward, from New Y ork (probably himself)
Republican will succeed Mr.. Bigler, a Democrat

MAN KILLS HIS TWO DAUGHTERS AND
CUTS HIS OWN THROAT
A horrible double murder was perpetrated on
Monday evening, in Bridgewater, Litchield county.
man by the name of David YilIets, halter bv
trade, while in fit of passion, temporary insan
ity, murdered his two daughters, aged IL and Is
years respectively, and then attempted to put an
end to his own existence by cutting his throat
Villets is about forty years of age has always lived
in Bridgeport, and has been ALWAYS considered a
steady, temperate man.
The circumstances connected with this heart
sickenng affair about follows: Villets occu-
pied, with his second wife, small shanty house in
the town, and his two daughters by his first wife
lived with them. Nothing was known of the mat
ter until the following morning, when (savs the
Bridgeport Standard he raped on the window
and attracted the attention of person who was
passing. Ofcourse there was a great gathering at
the place, and a physician was sent for Viliets'
throat was sewed up, and he was able to tell what
ne had done, but was not disposed to saw much re-
marking that he supposed he should be examined,
&c. His manner was perfectly rational Ifinsane
at the time OF having committed the murders, he
had apparently recovered. It's stated that several
of his connections by the mothers side have been
deranged.
few months since he was in the employment of
Messrs. Sanford, at Bridgewater, but left them,
was discharged. He had been at work in Brook
yn and other places, but had not been able to OBJ
tain permanent situation. Last week he return
ed home, and it is said proposed to give up house
keepng-his wife to go home to her connections in
Massachusetts, and his daughters, hes said, he would
place with the Shakers.
His wife (not the mother of his girls) left on
Monday, and he it is sad attended her to the cars
Nothing unusual appeared in his manner and it
was noticed that his daughters went some distance
to meet him on his return. 1t is thought that he
may have had some difficulty with his wife, but
this seems to be mere conjecture. His first wife
died some years since. He has been reputed to be
a a man OF sober habits. 1t is supposed that being
In needy circumstances, he had become detected
and probably deranged. The victims were found
as II sleeping. They probably died without a
struggle. The first blows which were inflicted

ness. .-l.
1t is thought that Villets will recover. He is
now confined in Litchfeld county Jail.
