Commander Parker, Chief Signal Officer of the
Navy, has made an important discovery, in the
shape of an electric light, to be used at sea. In
addition to the luminous quality of the light, it is
so manipulated as to emit a shower of electric
sparks or stars, and by patient experiments the
new process has been completed to the entire salts
faction of the Navy Department.

windows on the Fulton-street side, and by tloOsky
lights, one of which is City feet in length Now
l want to know what a t1oosky-light is" Jenkin-
son couldn't tell. Then they asked Webster. and
Worcester, and one or two cyclopedias, and they

out a wrinkle running across the word, thus max

A libel against the schooner San Diego was
fled in the United States District Court yesterday,
by United States Attorney Van Dyke, on behalf
of the Government. The libel relates that on the
22d of July last George Marston, Assistant Treas
ury Agent of the United States for Alaska. seized
the schooner in the waters adjacent to the Island
of st. Paul on the coast of Alaska, as forfeited to
The United States, for the following causes: That
pursuant to an Act of Congress approved July /,
1870, entitled An Act to prevent the extermina-
ton of fur-bearing animals in Alaska w. A.
Richardson, the Acting Secretary of the Treasury
for a valuable consideration, leased to the Alaska
Commercial Company the right for twenty years
from May /, 1870. to take seals on the islands Of
st. George and st. Paul. That on the 2lst of July,
1875, without authority from the Alaska CONNER
cial Company, the crew of the San Diego, engaged
as seamen and seal-hunters, did, under the direc-
ton of the master Of the vessel. kill with firearms.
in the waters adjacent to the Island of ST. Paul,
l 500 fur seal. Wherefore the attorney prays that
the usual process be issued by the court, and that
the owners of the schooner be cited to answer,
and that the vessel. her tackle, apparel and fur
niture may be condemned by decree of the court
as forfeited to the use OF the United States. 1t is
not improbable that similar suits will be COM
menced against other vessels.-S. f. Cal, Sept. 10.

EIecIing senn,or.

The election of a United States
Senator to succeed Brownlow takes
place at Nashville to-day. The mode of
election is prescribed by a law of Con-
gressr which we subjoin in view of the
general interest taken in the contest:
The Legislature of each State, which
shall be chosen next preceding the ex.
piration OF the time for which any Sena
tor was elected to represent said State
in Congress, shall, on the second Tues.
day after the meeting and organization,
proceed to elect a Senator in Congress
in the place of such Senator going out
of Office, In the following manner Each
House shall openly, by a viva o vote
Of suck members present, name one
person for Senator in Congress from
said State, and the name of the person
so voted for who ehall have a majority
Of the whole number of votes cast in
each House shall be entered on the
journal of each House by the Clerk or
Secretary thereof; but if either House
shall fail to give such majority to any
person on said day, the fact shall be en-.
tered on the journal.
AT II o'clock meridian Of the day fol.
lowing that on which proceedings are
required to take place, as aforesaid, the
members of the two Houses shall con.
vene in joint assembly, and the journal
of each House'shail then be read, and if
The same person shall have received a
majority OF all the.votes ia each House,
such person shall be declared duly
elected Senator to represent said State
in the Congress Of the United States;
but il the same person shall not
have received a majority Of the
vote 10 each House, or IL either
House shall have failed to take the
proceedings as yeQuired by this act.
the joint Assembly shall then proceed
to choose, by a viva voce vote of each
member present, a person for the our
pose aforesaid, and the person having a
majority of all the members elected to
both Houses, being present and voting,
shall be declared duly elected; and in
case no person shall receive such ma
jority on the first day, the joint Assembly
shall meet at IL o'clock meridian Of each
succeeding day during the session Of the
Legislature. and take at least one vote
until a Senator shall be elected.
As there appears to be an impression
that each House should coz6ns itself to
one ballot on the FIRST day, it will be seen
that the law contains no such provision.
Each body may ballot a dozen times that
day, if in the meantime a majority Of
the votes is not cast for any particular
candidate.

FIRE AT BARTLgTT.
Livery stable and Store House ne
sfrSysd Last NfKhf-Loss, over SIX
Thousand Dollars.

A.0AnN0Q DuatNEas
BARrLETr. January 49,. 1875.
To the Editer Of the Ledger:
The cry Of "Firel frel" first awoke
the citizens Of our little village last
night at one o'clock, who we're o at
the scene Of the conhagration to witness
the total destruction of the livery stable
and saloon Of DR.. A.. W. Caldwe Il aud a
two story store house Of. Msjoit Amos
Munson. The fire originated il the liv.
cry stable, aud was. it is thought, the
work of an incendiary, az the whole
premises were enveloped in DANES before
il was discovered. DR.. Caldwells clerk
mr.. Allen succeeded in getting the
horses out-all that could be done The
flames soon communicated to the adjoin
ing building, a large two story frame, the
property of Msjac Munson, and il made
things lively for awhile, The store.house
Of Mr.. b. L. Priddy, some sixty feet
from Major MRnson's house, took FIRE on
the roof, and was in q fair ray to be
consumed, but for the exertions Of
Mr.. Alys Mercer, Rev. j.. Ri. Priddy,
Frank Graves and Ellis Lester, who APP
piled water constantly and subdued the
flames. All the citizens who we're
present went to work and removed
the stock Of Mr.. Priddy to a safe place,
much of which was damaged by hand
ling. The saving of Mr.. Priddy's store
was miraculous; it was scorched on the
side adjoining the fire, and at n time
was all ablaze on the root. Or. Caldwell
was insured in the Humboldt Company,
Newark, New Jersey, j. K. Warner
& Co agents, Memphis, for $3.50. Maj.
Munson's store house, which cost $4,000,
was unoccupied, recently vacanted by
Cross & Demar. He did have the build
ing insured with the Planters, of Mem
phis, but it is not known to the writer
whether he has any insurance now or
not. A fire in a country village, where
there are no appliances to subdue a con-
~hagration, is always a subject Of serious
thought to property owners. This is the
second FIRE in about twenty months at
this place, and although our town is
quiet and orderly as any place of its
size, these disasters have filled our bust
ness men with fear. If the wind had
driven the sparks in a northwesterly
direction the entire business portion Of
our town would have been destroyed.
