ANOTHER FRENCH STEAMER LosT.--
The startling news comes to us from
Havro that another Of the vessels OF
the French line Of steamers plying
between New York and Havre has
been lost. The steamer Amerique, oi
that line, sailed from New York on
the 4th inst. touched at Brest on
the 14th to land the mails and such
passengers as chose to go ashore, and
sailed on the same day for Havre. On
that day the disaster, of which as yet
we have only brief particulars, seems
to have occurred. Happily the pass
engers and all on board, except the
second officers, were saved.
Thus in the brief space of less than
five months, three vessels OF tho five
composing this French line have been
lost, as follows:
The Vile de Havre, November 22d,
1873.
The Europe, April 4th, 1874.
The Amerique, April Nth, 1874.
There remain only tho Pereire and
the st. Laurent, which, We believe, ,.are
tho oldest of all the vessels that the
company has owned. At this rate OF
destruction the limo will be extinct in
tho course of few months. Such
fatality would ruin its business even
If the two remaining ships were not
wrecked.

Tar SrArp SrNArr-A dead lock

TnE STATE SENATE. dead lock
has set in at Harrisburg over the
confirmation Of tho now Associate
Law and President Judges sent into
the Senate by tho Governor. Tho
Constitution requires a two-third vote,
and but Is Senators out Of tho 33 hav-
ing voted for confirmation, Of course
the whole batch were rejected. Tho
Democrats withheld their votes, and
they say they will continue TO do SO
until the Radicals .agree to pass a
proper Apportionment bill. The Gov
ernor has since re.appointed tho same
gentlemen and sent their names to the
Senate again. What tho result will
be We are unable TO conjecture. The
Apportionment bill, as reported, IL the
most infamous measure ever presented
in a legislative body. The bill, it
passed as reported, will in effect dis.
one-third of tho Democratic
voters in the State, and will give tho
Radicals a huge majority both in the
Senate and in tho House.

that Secretary Richardson is not the

are scores of other Radical organs
whose editors enjoy the same opinion
but they are afraid to speak out.
