We understand that majority of the
committee to whom the free railroad law,
prepared and presented by Major Suther-
lin, was referred, have voted against re-
porting it back for the consideration of the
House. This is practically the end of the
bill for this session but the great measure
is before the people Of the State, and in
the next election they will make short
work of the monopoly that would
crush out all enterprises but such as few
"would-be railroad kings" may have the
good fortune 70 manage in their own inter-
ests, and not those Of the public. The
men who have thus voted to kill this meas
sure have signed their own death-warrants
before the people.
In the next election this issue against
monopoly will be distinctly made. The
people will demand that capital seeking
investment in this State shall have free
course, and that no sugar-coated monopoly
shall be glorifed at their expense alone
Let the balance of the session, and forty
days more added to it, be occupied in re-
newed railroad wrangling over special
grants and charters. 1t will be fit com
mentary on the action of the General AS
sembly thus far.

NEW YORK, February s.-Archbish-
op McClosky has appointed Rev. Father
Preston, of st. AIMS, vicar-general, in
place of the late Father Storr.
Several creditors of Bowles Brothers
state that the claims in this country against
the firm amount to over three hundred
thousand dollars. The japanese claim is
said to be as much as sixty thousand. 1t
is claimed that Nathan Appleton, whose
property at Newport, R. l., has been at
tached in the interest Of the Japanese, is
liable as partner, and beyond what can
be realized from his estate little is expected
by the creditors.
In addition to the vessels the American
Congress, which has already been reported
as probably lost, it is stated that two other
ships, the Lincoln, and Sterling Castle.
both British, have probably met with the
same fate. The Sterling Castle sailed from
New York on December 10th for London,
and had crew of twenty-siX men, and the
Lincoln sailed on December the 1lth, and
had crew of twenty-three men.

Homestead Amendment Passed by
Congress.

Congress.
This important measure, designed 10
secure to the hopelessly indebted, VINO
may take advantage of the bankrupt law,
home out of their estate, passed the
Senate this morning. 1t had previously
passed the House by large majority. 1t
will bring relief to thousands of families
whose homes were threatened by the &C.
ton of the Virginia Court OF Appeals.
The bill does more than merely to relieve
the distress of that limited number, whose
homes were imperilled. 1t recognizes, In
the most solemn manner, the sdcfedness OF
the home. 1t comedies to the innocent wo-
men and children of the land a shelter,
secure from invasion and seizure for debts,
which they did not incur, and for which
they should not suffer. This principle we
would hold up to universal support as one
of the most sacred bulwarks of the we'll
being of people.
The passage of this amendment has
been strongly contested. Mr.. Platt and
our delegation in the House labored hard to
get it through that body. Senator Lewis
deserves great credit for his persistent
efforts to get it through the Senate. 1t
will do much to bring out the sleeping
energies of the people by settling the old
debts without reducing families to absolute
want

ton of Property and Loss of Life.

PITTsBURG, February 1.-THE recent
heavy rains have cansed a rapid rise in the
Monongahela. At Q o'clock this morning
the current was so strong that the coal
fleet, consisting Of thirty boats and barges,
broke from their fastenings at Smithtield-
street bridge and moved off in the current.
The alarm was Immediately given by blow
ing whistles and other signals, and efforts
made to save the lives of the unfortunate
men on board the coal fleet. Some were
saved, but it is reported that several were
lost. One man was seen to be carried I'M
der the steamer Hercules and another
under the Andes. Both were floating past
on barges and attempted to jump on the
wheel Of the steamers, and fell into the
water and went down. The tow-boat v.
F. Wilson, lying opposite the foot of Mar
ket street, was struck by floating barges
and turned upon one side. The steamer
Oil Valley was also cut down.
1t is impossible to ascertain the extent Of
the damage done to property on the river
and the number of lives lost. The river is
still rising rapidly, and at 1880 has risen
seventeen feet, but no further danger is
apprehended.
The Flood i'm the MOnongahela.
PITTsBURG, February 1s.-The flood
in the Monongahela increases. The disas.
tiers in the river are the heaviest ever
known. 1t is reported thattwe persons
have been drowned. The food has made IA
clean sweep of coal barges and RATS.
