Concord, n. H., June S.-Geo. H.
Stowell, presidenr of the seeding Re
publican Senate, received this morn
ing copy of the opinion of the
Supreme Court on the senatorial
question, accompanied by letter
from Chief Justice Cushing, saying
that the Court could not recognize
any body claiming to be the Senate,
other than that organized by the Sc
lection of Mr.. Sanborn as President
The Republicans are not wholly salts
fed, claiming that the decision does
not touch the main point at issue,
the alleged assumption of duties by
the Executive, not prescribed by pre-
cedent or the fundamental law. They
held caucus on the subject, but what
new policy they have adopted has not
transpired. 1t is thought that the Sc
ceding Senators will return this after
noon, and that the business of electing
a Governor in joint convention will
be proceeded with. The Democrats
claim that no legal election can now
be held, as the time prescribed by the
constitution has passed..

New York, June S.-Aaron Schultz
of Brooklyn, discovered burglar in

A long consultation took place to-
day between Jewett, of the Erie rail-
way, Vanderbilt, of tue New York
Central, and Thomas A. Scott, of the
Pennsylvania Central railroad, for the
purpose, If possible, of making ar
rangements for the benefit of the three
lines. The subject of an increase on
the present schedule of rates was un-
der discussion, but ultimately had to
be abandoned for the present. The
future management of the lines on q
more amicable basis was also can
vassed at great length, but left unal
tered for the present.
The number of ladies in attendance
at the Brooklyn Court to-day was
largely in excess of that of several
previous days. Evarts resumed the
summing up.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER @.

The argument in the case of the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad rece!vership was concluded
last night, aud Chief Justice Waite presiding
announced that the decision of the court would
be rendered on the Sd of January, 1876, to
which day the court adjourned. This suit was
Instituted in the United States Circuit Court
TOR Virginia by bondholdcrs of the Chesapeake
aud Ohio railroad, representing about Sl20 900,
tor The purpose OF forccosing the mortgage on
the road, and Henry Tyson, esq, of Baltimore,
was appointed by Judge Bond receiver. Sub
scquenty the trustees 10 the mortgages aud
other Of the boudholdcrs became parties plain
tiff TO the suit by petition, and other bond
holders, representing smaller amount 10 value
OF the bonds, asked to be made parties deteud-
ant or plaintiff, as the court might direct.
The plaintiff IN this suit, embracing those who
had 10 the first instance instituted the suit,
constituting large majority Of the bondhold
crS, filed the motion to dismiss the suit, which
motion was resisted upon the ground that the
proceeding was in the nature Of creditor bill,
and was for the benefit Of all the creditors of
the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. Pending
this motion, the trustees in the mortgages in
s!tuted similar proceedings in the State courts
Of Virginia and West Virginia for the purpose
Of foreclosirg the mortgage, and in these pro-
ceedngs General w. G. Wickham Was APP
pointed receiver.
If the Uoitcd States Circuit Court should
dismiss the bill, then, under the appointment
of the State court, General Wickham would
become the receiver of the road.

Toward the end of last week Hamburg
steamer sailed for Europe from New York
with CAT cases Of silk worm eggs, valued at
IS 900, 900, which had arrived from San Fran
cisco by rail 10 three full freight cars, 10 less
than seven days, having previously come from

only thirty days from China to New York. It
is queer sort Of freight 10 send, but the Sucz

IN winter, when in Europe, they will have 10
be stored in cold vaults until the mulberry
trees shall have put out their leaves, when the

New York papers that the silk worms are put
upon long sheets Of card board in China, and
are left until each board is covered with eggs,
which are about the size OF mustard seed.
The eggs stick to the cards, which, interlaid
With sheets Of paper, are packed 10 wooden
