It was a long struggle in the Senate, and
though, for the most part g0od-humOrcd
one, it was anxious ana intense. Twenty
seven hours of debate and ifty-twO roll
calls resulted at last in a Democratic vie
tory, but it was not much of victory after
all, and the struggle will be renewed
to-day. The whole object Of the Republican
flibustering was TO postpone until noon
yesterday a vote on Mr.. Thurman's res
olution to discharge the Committee on
Privileges and Elections from the further
consideration Of Mr. Buffers case, on the
theory that new legislative day would then
begin, and the report on Mr.. Kellogg's case,
having lain one day on the table, would come
up as unfinished business, and take precedence
of the South Carolina case. But early yester-
day morning il was learned that Vice resi-
dent Wheeler would rule that no new legis-
lative day would begin until an actual ad-
jomnment had taken place, and it was there
fore at once apparent that a Republi-
can defeat on this motion was in
evltable inasmuch as Messrs Patterson,
Conover and Davis were certain to vote with
the Democrats to bring the Butler case
into the Senate, and the Kellogg case could
not come up until the beginning of a new leg
islatiye day. But the Republicans thought best
to consume as much time a. possible and so
from noon of one day to o'clock in the az
ternOon of the next day, the war of
words and votes went on. At last the Republic
cans gave way, and the Democrats carried. by
% votes to 27, the motion to bring Mr. Butler
into open Senate But this was the whole cx-
tent of their triumph. 1t Was good step for
ward, but only one. To-day the issue will be
Joined again, either on the question of taking up
the report on Kellogg, which Mr. Edmunds will
demand as one of the highest privilege,
or on that of seating Butler. And here
the latest Washington dispatches make
the result of all these days Of agitation as I'M
certain as ever. Senator David Davis has
announced his intention of speaking on the
Butler case, but has given no hint of the way
in which he is likely TO vote. Should he de-
eide against Butler, his action would tie the
Senate, and the vote of Vice-President Wheeler

Northam, all their progress was so rapid that
three lives were lost, though only twelve men
were sleeping on the vessel 1t seems an al
most unavoidable inference that SINH
larly rapid fire would occasion immense loss
of life, if it were to break out, say, in
an overloaded excursion steamboat such MS
might have been seen in our harbOr almost any
fair day last Summer. The precautions taken
against fire on our passenger steamboats, are
rarely as complete as in our well-managcd
hotels or theatres while the liability to the
quick spread OF flame. to panic. and to loss
of life, is vastly greater.

The Arkansas Senator with the ilowery name
has enlarged the vocabulary of the Senate
and enriched 1t with a fresh and blooming epi-
thet, beautiful and yet parliamentary. Mr.. Ed
munds having taken Mr.. Wadcighs place IN
reading testimony to the Senate during the
all-night session. Mr.. Garland objects to his
interfering remarks of his own, because. he
eloquently remarked, abe is the mere agent,
"clerk-the fungus ON the Senator from New
"Hampshire." 1t seems to be established, on
orr highest authority, that fungus" is par
lamentary. It is certainly expressive, and is
admirably adapted for the purposes of dieni-
fed debate, in looking quite like an awful APP
pellaton. We commend it to honorable mem
hers who want to call names, bit don't want
to run any risks.

Several important recommendations are
made by the fifth report of the Jay Commits
sion, the vital portions Of which are printed
elsewhere. The commission strongly urges the
modification of the present system of entries in
the Custom House, so that in place of the seven
distinct processes through which the merchant or
his broker must now carry his papers. there may
be substituted one-that of the submission Of
the papers to the proper clerk In other words,
that the Custom House shall do this business
in a busness-like way, do its own carrying of
papers, and make its own transfers. thereby
lessening the countless opportunities that now
arise Tor corrUpting Government clerks and
putting merchants TO needless expense and
trouble.

Statements made by officers of the Huron
who have arrived in Washington throw some
new light on that sad disaster. 1t is shown
that Captain Ryan went to sea on his own re-
sponsibility and that if he erred in this respect
it was with the concurrence OF nearly all his
officers, only one of whom seems to have uttered
a warning that the storm signals might well
be needed The returned officers explain the
disaster with the theory that strong surface
current caused by the wind, had carried the
vessel further in shore than was sus-
pected, while they defend the near ap-
proach to the shore by showing that
it was good seamanship on the part of the
captain to take advantage, in this way, OF
favorable currents. The verdict OF the average
man will be, that navy captains need not be
above watching the warnings of the Signal
Service. The verdict of the superstitiouS tar
will be, that no other fate could be expected
for ship that sailed on Friday.

The French Republican Deputies being fully
resolved not to vote the Budget until the
President appoints a satisfactory Ministry it
is probable that within a few days MacMahOn
will carry ont his intention to ask the Senate
to choose between another dissolution and
his resignation. This Will at once make the
Orleonist Senators again masters of the situa-
ton. This group" of twenty-Onc composed,
in part, of moderate and reflective states
men, is midway between the 129 Royal
ist and Bonapartist Senators, who are for
resistance" and the 1870 Republicans who
are infexibly opposed to the admin
stration. 1t was this party which de-
clared in regard to the Broglie Ministry, that
il could mot raise the dead" aud re-
fused to shoulder their misdecds and blum
deIs. 1t was its leader, Senator Bocher,
who snubbed Count Daru, saying, "Your
"word resistance is either meaning
"less or full of criminal Intentions Finally,
it was this body of so-called Constitutional
lists that recently caused the resignation of
the Broglie Ministry by stating that they
would not sanction a second dissolution.
Should they hold to that resolution,
MacMahon may keep his word and gladden. the
French people by resigning. But while the
OrleanistS are opposed to another general
election, they wish to retain MacNlahon III
power, feeling assured that were he out 81
the way, GrGvy or some other sound Repubn
can would succeed him. 1t is this that may
make them hesitate, and perhaps prolong the
crisis by idle attempts at COMPROMISE.

a SHOWER OF ROCKS.

On Friday of ast week, in the early
afternoon, on Covingion street, in So
cial Circle, there occurred one OF the
strangest phepomens that wa. ever
seen in Georgia. 1t was nothing more
nor less than genuine shower of
stones, varying I'm siZ. from as large as
q hens egg TO that of a nien's two fists.
The stones are of irregular shape, of a
dark grayish color. inteIspersed with
a bright, shiny substance resembling
isinylass. The shower was very bri.
aud ex'endcd over not more than four
acres OF ground, and followed an ex-
plosive sound not unlike cannonsdiug.
A panicky feeling perv AIDED the vicin-
ity visited bv the shower. Happily,
every one except negro was in doors
at the time, else some one might have
been injured. One rock IA large rs a
mans two. fists, came near striking
this woman. As many IA n dozen
stones fell on the roof Of the editors
house, though without doing much
