tor Havre, In command of Captain Dur
moat. At2 o'clock On the morning
of the 25d, the Vile .du Havre came
in collision with the British ship Loeb
erne, from London for New York and
sunk shortly after. Two hundred and
twenty-six of the passengers of the
Vile du Havre were lost. The Tri-
mountain saved .eighty-seven of the
passengers and brought them to Car

The Vile du Havre was formerly
the Napolean Ill. She was altered
and enlarged last winter and came here
for the first time as the Vile du Havre
on the 9th Of April, making the pass
age from Brest in nine, days and TWEEN
ty-thrce hours. With the exception
of the Great Eastern, she was the lar
gest steamer that ever entered this
port. Her dimensions were 43O feet
by 4S feet. Her carving capacity was
$500 tons, freight and measurement
Her main saloon was fitted up with
marble wainscotting of three varieties,
the upholstery was velvet, and the
woodwork Was carved in the most I'm
ique designs Her engines were COM
pound direct-aeting. of 5000 horse
power, and made in England.
LONDON. Dec. l.-7Later dispatch
es from Cardiff bring the following ad-
ditional particulars Of the loss Of the
steamship Vile du Havre:
She was struck amidships by the
Locherne: and sunk in twelve minuees
after the collision. The Lecherne i'm
mediately lowered her boats, which
rendered all the service possible by
them. Fifty-tbree of the crew were
saved, including the Captaia, and these
go to make up the eighty-seven saved.
Among the passengers in the Vile

The Democratic candidate for Speak

who received II votes. Taking up
Wood as representative man does not
show very progressive tendency on
the part of the opposition. Contrary to
general expectations Vice President
Henry Wilson was able to preside at
the opening of the Senate, The Presl-

read to both Houses. Already several
ellis of more or less Importance have
been presented in both the Senate and

HONORABLE SETTLEMENT.

The country is to be congratulated
NEer the peaceful solution of our diff
snlty with Spain. Not only have the
matters in dispute been amicably ad-
justed, but the honor Of the United
States has been fully vindicated in the
settlement. For the part borne by the
administration in endeavoring to avert
a war, the people have reason to rejoice.
Many of the enemies of General Grant

On his part the country would be in
volved in war, but the course pursued
by the President shows that he knows
full we'll the rights Of this nation and
dares maintain them. "Let US have

PEACEABLE SETTLEMENT.
The SpanishG Overnment Accedes
to the Demands OF the United
States for PREPARATION.

WASHINGTON, November 28.-The
interest manifested to-day to learn the
real status of the Virginius case has
been greater than at any previous time
owing to the fact that it was generally
understood that the limit of time with
in which the Spanish Government was
to make final answer to the ultimatum
of the United States would expire at
noon, and that if no satisfactory settle.
ment or agreement was arrived at by
that time, this Government would have
considered its diplomatic negotiations
with Spain virtually at an end, at least
until the whole matter had been laid
before Congress and instructions given
to the President by that body. This
degree Of interest continued until a
late hour tonight and even at this
Observation-Disclosures are but few
persons in Washingto who are aware
of the fact that satisfactory plan OF
settlement Of the Virginius affair has
been agreed upon between the two
Governments.
At s o'clock tonight, while pre-
parations for a grand fashionable re-
ception to be held at the residence of
Secretary Fish were ia progress, Ad-
miral Polo, the Spanish Minister, hur-
riedly drove up to Mr.. Fish,s house,
and eagerly demanded to see the Sc
cretary of State. He was immediate
ly ushered into the latter's library,
and, as Mr.. Fish entered, Admiral Po-
10 warmly grasped his hand, and said ;
"Thank God; everything is right"
He then read partial translation of
dispatch from Madrid, in which Pre-
sident Castelar, declares his willingness
to yield to the reparation demanded
by our Government, and, in general
terms, the PREPARATION will result in the
surrender of the Virginius, probably
to the Collector of Customs lat Key
West, and salute to the United States
flag; the release of the remainder OF
the crew and passengers of the Virgil
| Mus; the indemnifcation of the fami.
lies of the victims of the butcher Bur
riel; and the prosecution and punish
ment, under the laws of Spain, by the
Spanish authorities of Santiago, Of the
officers who were connected with the
s!augh ter.
This will enable the President, in
his message, to assure the peace, unless
some unforeseen or untoward >circum-
stance occurs. The Government is
now to proceed to secure these results
in form more substantial than the
diplomatic memoranda and kilograms
in which they now rest.
On several occasions during the ne,
gotiations the prospects Of war were Sc
rious but, by one Government yield
ing more or less important point to
the other, compromise has been reach
ed, which is low satisfactory ito both.
The most important point yielded by
Il is Government was in the matter of
the {; ne within which the answer of
SPAN should be made. When Spain
had agreed to surrender the Virginius
the United States was generous enough
to postpone the time for the surrender
indefinitely, but with the understand
ing that the negotiations should be pr
secuted without delay. This was the
attitude Oh the 10Th instant, when war
rumors were so abundant.

TIE HOOSAC TUNNEL.

One of the great works of this Gen.
fury is the completion of the tunnel
through the Hoosac mountain in Massa-
chusetts, which it has taken fifteen
wears Of more or less consecutive labor
to perform. By the opening of the
Hoosac Tunnel a saving Of two hun
miles is made in the transportation of
Western products to the seaboard, and
brings Boston in direct communication
with the West. Compared with the
celebrated Mount Gents Tunnel, pene
trating one of the Alps, the longest in
the world, the Hoosac Tunnel is mar
rover by less than one twelfth lit Is
within eight inches Of the same hight;
it is about two thirds as long; and
when complete will have cost about
one third more per mile. The en- tire
length of the Hoosac Tunnel is four
and three7auarters miles twenty six
feet wide by a hight varying from 70
to 26 feet whenever a brick arch is
used. About six millions Of dollars
have been expended on the work. The
Tunnel has been completed by Messrs
w. & Fshanley, of Canada, who took
their contract in 1868 to finish the
work for 81 ,594 ,26S.
The Hoosac Tun mel will not be
ready for trains before next summer !;
if possible it is intended to run 'jubi-
lee train" through. on the 18th Of j uly.

The Hon. Eugene Casserly, of Cali
fornia, has resigned his seat in the
. nited States Senate The reason
which he gives therefor in his letter to
Governor Booth is that his public du-
ties have demanded so much of his time
as to serlonsl y impair bis health. In
withdrawing from the Senate he means
to withdraw from all public and po-
litical life, and devote himself to bis
private affairs.
Ann Eliza, Brigham Young's nine
teenth wife, left Salt Lake on Saturday
for the East on her mission against 20.
lygamy. Her departure several days
before the time fixed is stated by he1
friends to have been caused by the fact
that she had thought efforts would be
made to prevent the fulfllment of he1
intention. She will speak in New
York and Washington.
There was private conference Of
Eastern Bishops Of the Episcopa
Church, to the number of five or six
at New York, On Saturday, on the sub
ject OF the recent withdrawal of BishoI
Cummins. 1t is supposed that the pur
pose OF the gathering was to consider
how the apostate diocesan should be
deposed from the Episcopacy, and {
proposition is believed to have been
discussed to depose him without the
usual notice Of six months.

rained, politically, and worse, by his
wife. We shall not here give his name.
She admitted that his political ruin vas
due 20 her. She must shine in society.
he could not afford it honestly. but hhe
must must nave house costing 840, 900 or 90.
Men asked how he could do all this on
his limited income, and the answer de-
stroyed him. There began to be whid:
pered that all this ahew, superinduced
by the insane society ambitions OF his
VILE, meant corruption. and the sus.
ploion was fatal. That political death
has been followed by his complete moral
RUIN IN the late Investigations. This is
only suggestive; it is only one case In

rsmorseless vortex which society in
Washington has made for the weak and
