THE BOURBONs ALARMED.
Terror Lest . Small virxinia Post
O0ce may Pass into the HANDS
Of Q 2e0a atuster,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The execu.
tive session of the Senate to-day occu.
pied nearly six hours, including a
recess Of one hour. The nominations
of Judge Folger, to be Secretary of the
Treasury, the denomination Of Mr..
James, AZ Postmaster. General, the
nomination Mr.. Hatton. to be First
Assistant Postmaster. General, and
several other less Important nomina-
tions, were promptly confirmed: every.
thing was running smoothly, and some
Of the more sanguine Senators express
ed a hope that the Senate would he
ready 10 adjourn to-morr, " sine die.
This cheerful prospect was suddenly
clouded, however, when q majority OF
the Committee on Post Offices and Post
Roads reported favorably upon the nom.
ination Of Mr.. Statham TO be Postmas-
ter at Lynchburg, Va. Mr.. Statham is
the gentleman whose confirmation Gen.
Rsrly and other patriotic Bourbons are
anxious TO defeat, because he has left
their ranks and allied himself with the
Liberal movement. Senator Maxey, Of
Texas, who is q member Of the Post
Office Committee, presented a minority
report against Mr. Statham, and sup
ported 1t in a vigorous speech. Senator
johnson Of Virginia, Senator Voorhees,
Of Indiana, Senator Bayard and others
spoke on the same side. and argued in
favor OF the retention of the present in
cumbent, who has held the office dozen
years, and whose present term Of office
will expire twelve days hence.
The ouly objection urged against the
appointment Of Mr.. Statham was his
youth, he being, 1t is said, only twenty
three or twenty four years old. II is
understood that Mr.. BayArd is the Sem
ator who thinks MIR. Statham too
young to be a postmaster In the
course of The discussion Senator Ferry
caused to he read u report of Colonel
Parker, Chief Post Office Inspector, ac-
cording to which il Is understood that
the res ,ut Postmaster at Lynchhurg
was tuuni to be short III his accounts
las, spring some 81 5000 He made ths
amount good, however, and IL consider.
~ ion OF his services as a Union soldier,
President Garfield decided to give him
another trial
In september last, an examination
of the Office by an Inspector of the Post
Office Department showed that the
Postmaster was again short over 5000,
On the 3rd inst. this amount was made
good, but the Pos,ma@ters sureties
were informed by the Department tnat
the Postmaster was delinquent aud
that they would be held responsible
tor th" funds Of the office LItli further
arrangcmtnts could be made.
In the face of this Official record. it
is said. that Senators Bayard, Voorhees,,
johnson, MaXey and others persisted in
defending the Postmaster against the
accusation that he had been in default,
and they, AZ well as all the other Dem
ocratic Senators, expressed de.ermi-
nation TO oppose to tue last the contir-
nation of the man whom President
Arthur has nominated as his successor,

Davitf's Arrest-The First Excitement
 Ray of Comfort for the Im-

 Exacted-The struggle i'm Parliament.
 DUBLIN, Feb 6.-The excitement in Ire land consequent upon the arrest of Davitt has given place to quiet determination to await the course of events and make the best preparations for meeting any action which the government may take under the coercian act Throughout the country the greatest indignation prevails. MT. Davitt was per- sonally known in almost every town and village of the four provinces. Protests from every quarter are reaching the cen- tral offices of the League, The government show no inclination to interfere with the meetings in public halls in the towns for this purpose, but nearly all the open air meetings called for to-day had been proclaimed last night To-day MT. Brennan received private information that he would be arrested tonight. But on inquiry in official quarters learn that there is not the slightest foundation for the report. I aa al-
