The Oppositlon to stathnm

WASHINGTON, ID. c., October 27.-The
nominations of Folgcr, James and Hatton
were confirmed in the senate executive SEES
sion to-day without debate or opposition,
as soon MS they were reported back from the
committee to which, as matter of form,
they had been referred The days session
was prolonged, however, till 6 O'Clock 10y an
animated contest over the nomination of
Clifford Statham, roadjuster of democratic
antccedcnts, as postmaster ut Lynchhurg,
Va. vice the republican incumbent, named
Wilson, whose term of office will expire on
the IN prox. His confirmation was earnestly
opposed by democratic senators on the
grounds as set forth in speeches ofMrJohn.
ston, of Virginia, Maxey and Voorhees,,
that Wilson was q gallaMt Union soldier,
severely wounded In the war of the rebel
lion; that the business men of Lynchburg
are entirely satisfied with his administra-
ton of the postofllce and de-
sire his retention and that the proposed
appointment of Siatham, an. active support.
erof senator Malone, Is an inadmissable at
tempt to influence the issue of the state 10.
litical contest by federal patronage. To
these arguments II was replied by the
chairman OF the postoillcc committee,
Mr. Terry, and various other republicans.
that recent inyestlg atoms of the
special agents of tie postotllcc
department have shown that Wilson
has been short In his accounts at three dc.
fcrcnt periods that he has used govern
ment money for private purposes, although
he subsequently, made good the amounts

Gen. Dumonts report as supervising in.
spector-gcncral of steam vessels is in
some respects very ENCOURAGING. The mum.
Der of steam vessels inspected for 1881 was
500, and the number of passengers they
carried Is given as 100000 The number
OLIVES lost was 2jS, or about one for every
$780, 900 persons. The risk of water travel
by our steamboats, is not appalling when Il
is considered that the whole population of
New York city might make n Journey by
such conveyance without any expectation
of accident to moro than one or two of the
number. The total number of passengers
carried during the last five years was !i32,.
5OO, bS7, an increase of 335 ,865,.
i59 over the number carried dur.
Ing the preceding five years, while
the total number of lives lost, Loss, was a
decreas of 7iO nom the number lost during
the Eve years beginning with 1872, Such d
showing is certainly encouraging, much as
the popie have been shocked by steamboat
horrors during the last two years. Never
theless, moro rigid enforcement Of the
laws for the inspection OF steam vessels may
effect greater Improvements. during the
next five years than were made during the
last five.

point of size and beauty The hide was
found amongst carload of others which
were shipped from Chicago, and was tame
and preserved as great curiosity. The
hide, which was taken from the back of
steer, is by long odds the largest one ever
heard of in the world. Each side of the
mammoth hide weighs forty-six pounds
tanned. The ordinary weight Of hides
is from eighteen to twenty-four pounds
The hide is not only an exceedingly large
one, but is also very beautiful in point of
finish. 1t is very smooth and glossy, and
of a uniform thickness, which is also very
unusual. The hides which have been on
exhibition fora week past in the exposition
will be taken to Atlanta and put in the expo
sition there. After its conclusion they will
be taken to the principal eastern cities and
exhibited as great curiosities The COM
pany which owns the hide is very proud OF
1t, and are determined to aStonish the
world.

from office; that Mr.. statham's APP
pointment is recommended with great
unaniniity by the republicans al
Lynchburg and that the objection
based ON alleged federal interference with
state politics is strained and unworthyot the
consideration or view under the special err,
cumstances fthe case and multitude OF
general precedents. At the end oil three
hours discussion an attempt was made by
the republicans to obtain vote ON the
question of confirmation, but this was
prevented by resort on the
mart of the democrats to dilatory
tactics commonly known as fillibustering,
and finally an adjournment was taken III
to.morrow leaving the case still pending.
| ID is believed by many that similar resis,
lance to final action on this nomination will
be exerted by democratic members OF the
senate till the close of the present session,
until in the meantime 1t shall be asecrtained
that Senator David Davis will vote with
them, in which event il party lines are per
sistently maintained on the question the
nomination will be lost by a vote.

If you suffer from general debility,

friend of ours. He secured from his drug
giSt bottle ofBrown's Iron Bittcrs, having
heard of its merit from physician, who
told him not to take any other Bittcrs or
Tonic for with the exception of Browns
Iron Bitters, they all contained alcohol,
and had failed TO give his patients lasting
relief nor should he take any other prepar-
ton of Iron, for, with the exception of
Browns Iron Bittcrs, they all blackened
the teeth, and often gave headache, which
Browns Iron BittcrS never did, but in fact
cured headache. The effect was most salts

results. His old energy returned his nat

altogether n new man, full of health,

friends, which we unhesitatingly do to all

The NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

WASHINGTON, October 27,-The Star to-
night says the delay in the appointment of
an Encouragement has not, it appears,
grown ont of any indscrction as to the Sc
lection of a man for the place, but of the
circumstances surrounding the office. Mr..
Howe does not desire to accept the appoint
ment with star route prosecution coming
down legally from his predecessor. Or
dnarily this would not be
an objection, but there arc
circumstances that might be peculiarly EN-
barrassing to Howe. His son-in-law, Colo
mel Enoch Totten, is one Of the counsel for
the defense, and Howe's friends fear that
should he accept the Office and fail to con-
Wet in these cases the failure might give
rise to impressions that his son-in-aw had
influenced him for this reason. The presl-
dent was informed that Mr.. Howe
would prefer not to accept the appointment
at present. One of the most prominent
supporters of MIR. Howe informed repor-
ter this evening that he was confident that
of Howes appointment eventually, but
the president is DESTROYS of having the
Star route cases conducted by those who
began them, and will therefore endeavor to
pursuade MacVeagh to remain in Office till
these cases are Included, and that If Mae
Veugh refuses, then an al interim appoint
ment will be made and Mr.. Howe will take
the office after a while.
