WASHINGTON, March |, 1879.

WASHINGTON, March |, 1875.
The Wheeler Frye Louisiana resolutions
were brought before the House and passed
this morning by Alexander II. Stephens
vote. 1t required two-thirGs vote to bring
the matter before the House. There were
l72 yeas and 81 nays. Mr.. Stephens voted
yea. Had he voted no, the resolutions
would have been defeated.
After the resolutions were before the
House it required only majority to pass
them, which was easily obtained; but the
two-thirds vote first required could not have
been obtained without Mr.. Stephens help.
Attorney General Williams tells me that
there is not one word of truth in the BuHc-
inns dispatch stating that Marshal Packard
will be retired The same dispatch ap-
peared in the New York Tribune. No one
here believed it, but thought it best to
have the matter authoritatively settled.

one OF whom was colored; the other was

Company's works, named Jones. This
comprises all the fatalities known as vet.
The steam ferryboat was among the sub

urday and Sunday, relieving and taking off
all who were in need Many have been the
duckings received, but everybody, not ex-
cepting those whose losses are heaviest, are
IN happy mood, and disposed to take it
cheerfnlly. A boat is used to get to and
from the telegraph office, and from one side
OF the town to the other. Messages have
been, delivered tnearly as promptly as
usual notwithstanding the greatly increased
flood.
The railroads are cut off in every direc
ton, consequently there have been no mails
to or from the city tor several days past
until day. A steamer has gone down he
river with the mails and passengers to
Bridgeport, where it will meet the train
from Nashville. Only one telegraph wire re-
mains up, and its loss is feared momentarily
Tennessee Valley Submerged.
CINCINNATI, March 1.-The Commercial
Bridgeport (Alabama) special says: The
greatest flood that has visited that region
since Noah's, with one exception, is now
sweeping down the Tennessee valley. All
the low ground about Chattanooga is sub.
merged and there is great loss of property.
Every railroad leading into the city is
badly washed, and whole sections sub
merged: The East Tennessee road is out
IN twenty places The Atlanta road has
lost many bridges. The Memphis and
Charleston road is under water for miles,
and has lost heavily in bridges. The Nash
vl!ie road IS also great sufferer. The great
bridge across the Tennessee at Bird dCeport,
is in danger, but as it is heavily weighed
down with loaded ears, it is thought it NAV
be saved.
The river is still rising slowly. Destruc-
tiOn in fences, stock and houses. for 300
miles up and down, is very great. probably
the greatest ever known, with the possible
exception of flood eight years ago

Landsing and Saginaw roads have all been
unable to start a train. The Fort WAYNE and

mail trains over their road, making no
attempt to run others. Their express trains
each ways to night have been abandoned,
and unless the storm ceases they probably
will get nothing through to morrow.

The Origin of the Horse.

There is evidence, which is perfectly salts
factory to competent judges, that we have
already learned the actual historical pro
cess by which one existing species-the
horse-came into existence during the
tertiary epoch. The evidence, based on
the analogy of known developnental facts,
that d three-toed Ilipparion form, which
lived in the Miocene epoch, gave rise, by
suppression Of the phalanges of its rudi-
mental toes and some other slight moditca-
tions, TO the apparently onetoed later ter
tiary horse, is as satisfactory to my mind
as the evidence, based on the analogy of
known structural frcts, which leads me to
have No doubt that the said extinct
Hipparion had simple stomach and GER
tain kind of heart. If those socalled 'Ba-
conan principles" which everybody talks
about and nobody dreams of putting
into practice, forbid us to draw the one
conclusion, they forbid us to draw the
other. The alternative hypotheses are two
either the Deity manifested his power on
this earth, in the course of the Miocene
epoch. by making the two primitive ances
tors OF all the horses out Of inorganic mat
ter. or something more unlike horse than
a HippariOn changed into one. The latter
hypothesis is gratuitous and absurd. The
former is not in itself absurd; but, unless
the early chapters Of Genesis mean some
IhiuS Soutl al W "udl lilty appear u mean
land one never knows what exegetic inge-
nuity may make of the ''ol ,inal Hebrew,
it is shockingly heretical. and / hasten to
disown it, lest, by some such secret connec-
ton as bound Goodwin Sands with Ten
terden steeple, it should land me in the
crueltles Of Caligula, and lead me to
violate the precepts of the sagest of
physicians, by indulging in Heloga-
bulian gluttony. But if the horse really
has arisen in this way, what imaginable
ground can there be for the enormous and,
in that case, highly "un Baconian" assump-
tion that the deer and the OK ard the pig
have arisen in any other way! And if
there is-not perhaps the complete evidence
I hat we happen to possess in the case of the
horse-but still much better evidence than
there is for the authenticity ana the genu-
ineness Of the books called by the name OF
Moses, that these animals have been pro-
duced by a similar method, why may not
the hypothesis that they have SO arisen
take its rank amoug the probable conciu-
sions of science Even though it must in
candor be admitted that, as we can not live
back IN the tertiary epoch and see what
went on at that time, the hypothesis must
always remain, in the strictest sense of the
word. verifiable.-Professor HUXLEY. il.
