Mrs.. Jeff. Davis in Norfolk Judge
Underwood United states Circuit
Court-The Steamer Ephcsus.
NORFOLK, May S.--Mrs. Jefferson Davis
made brief visit to our city this morning,
returning to Old Point on the afternoon
boat.
Judge Underwood arrived here to-day,
and will commence the May term of the
United States Circuit Court tomorrow.
Many cases of Importance are on the docket
of this court, and its proceedings will be
looked for with great interest.
The bill in regard to changing the place
of holding the United States Circuit Court
from Norfolk to Richmond, which passed
the House of Representatives on Monday,
has yet to be acted on by the Senate, and
will scarcely become a law in time to hold
a term of the court in your city.
Nothing has yet been heard of the
steamer Ephcsus. CARO-.

Congressional Proceedings.

W ASHINGT0N, May S.-SENATE.-M Mr..
Sumner, from the Committee on Foreign
Relations, reported the House joint reso-
luton relative to the attempted assassina-
ton of the Emperor of Russia with an ad-
ditonal section, san amendment, request
ing the President to forward a copy Of the
resolution to the Emperor which was
adopted.
A joint resolution to prevent the intro
duction of the cholera into this country
was introduced. 1t makes it the duty of
the Secretary of War and Secretary of the
Navy, with the cooperation Of the Secre-
tary of the Treasury, whose concurrent
action shall be directed by the President,
to unite with all the power at their COM
mand for the establishment of uniform
system of quarantine, and to establish sa-
nitary cordons for the prevention of the
introduction and spread of the cholera.
The resolution was discussed during the
morning hour. Considerable objection to
It's adoption was urged.
The Legislative Appropriation bill was
reported and ordered to be printed.
HoUsE.-Mr. Garfield moved that the
special order for to-day-viz: the joint reso-
luton proposing an amendment to the Con-
stitution, hitherto reported from the Com
mittcc on ReconStruCtion-bc. postponed
until the Tax bill is disposed of. He said
he should consider it a national calamity if
the Tax bill be deferred for any cOnSidera-
bic time. Mr.. Stevens said he did not see
any reason why the amendment should
occupy the time of the House for more
than Il few days, and he considered it i'm
portant that it should go to the Senate as
soon as possible. The House refused to
postpone. Upon entering upon the con-
Sidcration of the subject, Mr.. Stevens led
off with brief speech, in which he de-
clarcd that the committee wanted only
nineteen of the loyal States to ratily the
proposed amendment, for he utterly
secuted and repudiatcd the idea that the
votes Of the States lately in rebellion
should be counted in the adoption of the
amendment. Several other gentlemen fol-
lowed in speeches of thirty minutes dura-
ton, the debate showing marked differ
cnccS of opinion among the Radicals on
the report in question. The House took a
recess at half-paSt 4 o'clock, and will meet
tonight for the consideration Of the Inter
nal Revenue bill.

From I0wa-The Mississippi Flood
Terrible Destruction Of Property at
Prairie du Chien-Davcnport inun.
dated.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, May 4.-Rcports from
along the river begin to give details OF the
food. At Prairie du Chen the lower part
of the city is inundated, and the water
flows over all the street extensions. Lllln-
Der wards are atoat, and steamboats, load
and unload by showing their gang-plankS
into the doorways Of warehouses. On the
last trip ofthc ItaSca down, she landed her
passengers in saloon, and came near
pushing the counter over with her bow.
Davenport has not suffered much. AT
East Davenport rowbOats are the only
means of locomotion, the water being IN
many places ten feet deep. The river Is
about six miles wide at Davenport. The
lcvcc being built OF brick and earth, is pro
bly, washed away. While many manutac-
turing concerns are suspended, none are
seriously damaged, but fears are enter
tanned that they will be.
At Rockingham immense damage has
been done, the town being cut off from the
rest of Iowa by canal surprising any
thing Butler ever saw in the vicinity OF
Richmond. The water starts in at the
mouth of Black Hawk creek, and, taking
Il graceful curve, returns 10 the river near
the head of Horse island.
A good deal of damage has been done
about Albany, Iowa, the track Of the West
crn Union railroad, as also the telegraph
line, being swept away.
4 pcrccptiblc increase is apparent along
the river, and we know not how soon We
Shall be able To ascertain the amount OF
loss inflicted by this great flood. As it's,
all the Swamps, slough>, and bayouS along
the river have been filled, and the result
will most undoubtedly be very unhealthy

MURDERS IN MlSsoURI-SAID TO BE BY
REBELS.-The Bonneville (Mo.) Eagle gives
an account of Il double murder recently
committed by some rebel dcsperadocs near
that place. The murderers rode up, and
after engaging in conversation for mo-
ment or two with their victims, shot them
first the father, then the eldest SOIL
killing both almost instantly. a younger
brother, who was near by, seized a gun and
fortunately killed one of the villains. The
others, frightened at this, rode off, but not
until one more had been seriously wound
al by the brave boy. Mr.. Goode, the muir
dcred man, was a quiet, inofiensive citi-
zen, and a strong Union, man.

I'll. xo,,ouol Express Company.

II i well known that from It's nrs' or
u,n;z,,ion this company has had many diff
c.,,,,ias 10 contend with. The Adams,
-, Southern. and other express compa-
,.:os NJ old established reputation, were
.rr,,dy in the field, and, supported by
,,r,,o. rapi,al and the profits Of many years
: ,ucrcs>Tul operation, they looked with
..,,rral jealousy and distrnSt upon any
...,. .,,,rr. Such obstacles rs these the
managers Of the National Express Com
any must have expected to meet with
',1 they must have known also that as, III
.55irnn Ia their other advantages, the
Adams and Southern Express Companies
had exclusive privileges upon the Peters
nrrr and Weldon, Orange and AlcXahdrla,
VIRGINIA Central, aud the Virginia ana
Tennessee railroads, which prevented them
,~.,n running their freight over those lines
# travel, the task of gaining public CONT
4cprc and support was one OF no small
,.,,.,r;tuJc Changes have lately been
made in the management OF the Nati"hal
r<prc>> Company, and AZ one OF the iirSt
results il will bc seen that that compah!
NOW RIM over the Richmond, FrederlckS-
hrra and Potomac, Richmond and DanviiIc,
Piedmont. Scaboard and Roanoke, and the
Richmond and Petersburg railroads, while
,hrv have established through connections
20 New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Cincinnati, ST. Louis, Savannah, Charles
ton. Atlanta, and other important cities,
and will in few days have Il through
line To Mobile and New Orleans.
All that the National Express Company
expect or require is that they may be
placed upon Il fair footing with their
rivals. They ask for no special privileges
or exclusive rights but are willing To de-
rcnd on their own cXertiunS and the per
lection Of their business arrangements for
a fair share of public patronage. Upon
the Norfolk and Petersburg and South
side railroads no express company Is al
lowed L. run freight, and however dctri-
mental this may be to the interests OF
shippers of freight, il is fai; to the express
companies, as the rule is a general one,
and not intended to exclude any one cor
puration. There is ample business to sup
port all ;hc express companies now IN opc-
ration, There is work and profit, under
proper management, for every one OF
them. and the wishes and feelings of the
people, as well as their interests, are diane
trically opposed to any principle OF mo-
uopoly. Each company should be allowed
1,rrfcct and entire iair-play, and then each
onr will stand or fall by its own merit.
Let this only be done, and the spirit OF fair
and honorable competition which will arise
vii increase the express business so that
the public will be benefited, the old COM
utnics will continue to realize their hand
some dividends, and the National Express
Company will soon become tlourShing
aud paying corporation.

ARRESTED FOR BANK FAILURE.-It is
stated in Western Pennsylvania paper
that G. V. Culver, of the house of Culver,
Penn h Co., was arrested last week at Reno,
Venango county, on the complaint of seve-
raj citizens Of Franklin who have suffered
from the failure of his firm. The prosecu-
ton Is a criminal one, and the warrant OF
arrest contains three distinct charges, one
of which is conspiracy to defraud. Mr..
Culver was taken TO Franklin, and was
held to bail In the sum of sixty thousand
dollars. The same authority says that Mr..
Austin, the cashier of the venango Bank,

Nix. JouNSoN's FIRMNESS Is TELLING.-
Ii is said the Radicals rcconsidercd the
vote upon the amendment 10 the Post
office Appropriation bill restricting the
Presidents power of removal because they
iuund ont that lac would certainly veto the
whole bill and let the poSt-otiiccS be closed
up. Mr.. Poland said he would not stand
before his people on that amendment.
Spcakug of this vote of reconsideration,
tie Notjonm h,tcHjgencs' of yesterday says:
The things prcSagcd 10y the discussion
i'm the Senate yesterday were, that num-
hrr> of the more thoughtful Rcpubli-
cans III Congress will not longer sustain the
hcadlon@ policy that has been thus far
forced along in the channels Of legislation,
under the leadership of Mr.. Stevens. And
particularly is il indicated that measures
10 abridgC the usual exercise by the PrcSi-
dent Of his prerogativc in respect to APP
poimtmcntS cannot he passed over his head
il vetoed. Nor is there longer danger, We
feel persuaded, that the most odiouS ica-
lures of the disunion scheme of the Re-
construction Committee can obtain the re-
uui>itc constitutional sanction when sub
irctcd to the ordeal OF executive diSappro
val. We hail this indication OF right rca-
son as encouraging to union, as going Il
step in the direction suggested by the ell
Hghtrncd public sentiment of Europe, as
giving hope 10 the depressed business intc-
rests Of the country, and as Strengthening
the public credit. 1t is now favorable
opportunity for such constituents OF Con-
ecy>>mcn as are not politicians by trade
To- aid and comfort all those who, in the
high councils of the nation, are disposed
10 act for country, and not merely to obey
the bchcsts Of violent partisanS."
