France

LONDON, November 9.--Reuter's Paris
dispatch says delegates Of oil the groups on
the Right waited on the Marshal tonight to
assure him that he might count upon ma
iority in the Senate for an energetic defence
Of the country and society. Marshal Mac
Mahon replied: "Your declaration only
proves was right to rely upon the support
fthe Senate for conservative policy, which
is, as you know, the only policy am able
to follow"
LONDON, November 9.-The Times'S Pa
ris correspondent tclegraphs the follow
ing: "Some assert that the Cabinet obtained
an adjournment Of the Senate in order to
wait until the Chamber OF Deputies had de-
clared valid the election Of sufficient num-
Der OF members to enable it to proceed to
business.
"Othcrs say the Cabinet have accepted
adjournment because it hopes the Chamber
OF Deputies will meanwhile display such
violence as TO demonstrate the impossibility
Of conducting the Government with It,"
The correspondent adds: i" 1t is feared the
Chamber will neither be willing nor able to
restrain itself. The debate yesterday was a
warm one. A pleuary meeting Of the Left
last night appointed committee OF eighteen
members, with full powers to act for the
party"

A SKETCH OF THE DECEASED.

GSpccial telegram TO the Disparch.l
NORFOLK, November 9.-Colonel Myer
MYERS, the British consul OF this port, and
one of our oldest and most cstimablc citi-
zcns, died last night, in the eighty-elghth
year OF his age.
Colonel Myers leaves a history behind
that could ill many columns. He was
soldier in the war OF 1872, and held COM
mission in the cavalry arm OF the service,
and was at one time an aid upon the staff
of General Wade Hampton. the father OF
the present Governor OF South Carolina.
Tn 1882 Colonel Myers succeeded his bro
Their rs consul for Brazil, and also OF the
Netherlands, and was appointed to this
British consulate in 1856 until its close. He
was also president Of the Bank OF Virginia.
At the special request OF the deceased,
there will be no church-service at the func-
raj on Sunday. The solemn ceremonies
will be conducted solely by the Masons.

CONGRESSMAN SMALLS's TRIAL-A MOTION TO
REMOVE THE CASE TO THE UNITED STATES
COURT DENIED.
COLUMBIA, s. c., November 9.-Congress-
man Smalls's trial was begun this afternoon,
after Judge Townsend had delivered a
written opinion refusing the motion to re-
move the case to the United States Court.
Woodruff, clerk of the Senate, testified
that he paid Smalls $4,000 to secure the
passage OF an appropriation for the Repub-
lican Printing Company. He gave check
on Hardy Solomon's bank; whichs check
was produced and identified by Woodruff,
whose evidence on this point was corrobo-
rated by Sealy, the cashier of the bank, who
paid the check and made the deposit OF the
money to Smalls's credit at the same time.
Defendants counsel contest every inch OF
ground. Six white and six colored men
com pose the Jury.
