LOOKING TO THE SOUTH.
The Schemes the Republicans are
Perfectins.-

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE prelim-
inaries were all completed to-day and
the Republican Congressional Commit
tee will be organized and at work with
in ten days. Edward Mcpherson is
not to be the Secretary, but Col. Hen
derson is. The Colonel is Blaine man,
or was. Men arc beginning to see
things in other lights than those of
twenty years ago. Some very squeam-
ish people think that the fact that Hen
derson is or was a Blaine man means
something, but then Mcpherson, who
fails to get the place, was a Blaine man.
No man is more saturated with Blaine
ism. If it means anything that a Blaine
man is chosen, it is hard to see why it
should not mean something if a Blaine
man is defeated. The fact is, however,
that Mcpherson made no great struggle
to get the place. His health is so poor
that he does not care to run any risks.
So Senator Allison reached over into
Iowa and brought on man for whom
he vouched. Henderson expects to
represent the Dubuque district in the
next Congress, and Allison was assured
that man who was able to get nom-
ination in a Dubuque Congressional
Convention would be able to accom-
plish even such marvels of political
work as Mcpherson used to be credited
with. Blaine, Grant, Logan or Arthur
do not enter into the consideration of
6tor,orniffon Thoxy
organizing for the purpose of electing a
Republican House of Representatives
next fall, and they are going to work
as though they meant to succeed.
Meanwhile the Democratic commit
tee sits idly by, showing no more snap
rupt insurance company. By aud by
the Democratic committee will awake
to some unpleasant news. Advices
that Chairman Hubbell and other Re-
publicans here have received show
that the tide in many of the Northern
States is unmistakably drifting in a
way to set a Democratic majority into
the next House. The Demo ocratic COM
mittee has heard the same thing, and
seems to be content Herewith. Now
the Republican committee will begin
at once the work, not of antagonizing
this sentiment, but of making up else
where fer losses that are certain, under
the new apportionment and for other
reasons, to take place in the North. A
member of the committee said to VIM.
f. Chandler today:
"We've got to cross the Potomac to
get recruits Chandler, as he scrib-
bled all over an envelope, and made
hieroglyphics, replied: 81 think we
shall at once move on to I,ichmond and
further South"
This shows precisely what is in the
wind. The Republican Committee
with the help of the astute Chandler
expect to capture not less than twenty
five Republican members from the
South. The pins, as they say here, are
already set up for it; eight in Virgin
ia, two in n North Carolina, two in Louis
lana, three in Tennessee, and so on.
MIR. Malone is working very faithfully
to fulfill his contract so far as Virginia
is concerned. Already the preliminary
arrangements are being made for send
ing Kellogg to Congress from a Louis

VESSEL CAPsIz8D. Captain Frank
Worth, of the Umatilla, reports having
sighted vessel bottom up, bearing
south BY west, eight miles distant from
Destruction Island. She seemed to be a
schooner of about % tons burden, and
to have been caPsized in gale of wind.
The Umatilla ran along to within forty
feet of her, but as night was coming on.
no effort was made to right her up. The
bottom Of the up-turned schooner had
recently received q fresh coat of copper
paint. No injuries were noticed on her
bottom, thus making it evident she had
been overturned by the wind, in which
case all hands were doubtless lost There
was notch cut in her keel, and Capt.
Worth thinks some vessel had been tow
ing her i'll toward the shore. Destruc-
ton Island is thirty-seven miles due,
south from Cape Fiattsry. and the point
where the Umatilla passed the up-turned
vessel was about 80 miles due south from
the Cape. Shortly after passing the
wreck Capt. Worth sighted the Cutter
Wolcott cruising in that vicinity, doubt
less in search of the over turned vessel. Il
Is impossible to tell at present the name
of the Inflated craft. Mr.. 8. Baxter,
who has Just returned from Port Town
send, does not think the wreck can be
that of a sealing schooner, as it appears
to DO much larger than any of those. He
is rather of the opinion that it is some
cOasting schooner. Full particulars
will doubtless soon be received.

hundred marks. The knighthood of the
Greek Order of the Redeemer, the Ser
Wan Order of Takova, and the Montene-
grin Order of Danilof, are to be had from
our advertiser at the cost of fifty pounds
each. The domestic Order of the Star,
conferred upon members of the court of
the Prince of Monaco, many be obtained
through the agency for about thirty five
pounds.
Certain Orders, which were formerly
conferred by few privileged noble
houses and which are usually believed to
be extinct, may be had at ridiculous
figure. Among these later is the Knight
hood of Saint Sauveur du Mont Real. 1t
is in the gilt of the Marquis de Ragny,
and it is now offered through the agent
for6ve pounds, or one hundred marks,
while the Grand Cross of this Order, the
very cheapest legitimate decoration in the
world, costs only fifteen shillings.
Countships, Baronies, and diplomas of
nobility are somewhat dearer than Or
ders. All the argumentative eloquence
and commercial capacity of the advertis-
er have failed to prevail upon the little
republic of San Marino to sell the aristo-
cratic title of Graf, Grave, Earl or Count,
for less than fifteen thousand marks, or
seven hundred and fifty pounds; the
valid Barony" of the same republic,
however, may be had for four Thousand
marks; which shows that the dignity of a
Count, in the estimate of this unrepubli-
can petty republic, is nearly four times
as valuable as that of a Baron. The
agent assures us that a Barony of the
Papal See may be had for two hundred
and fifty pounds. Some of these titles,
we are informed, convey the stupendous
privilege of being Familiarity addressed
