ANOTHER WRECK.
Sixty-two Lives Lost.-An Awful
Casualty off Newfoundland.

Casualty off Newfoundland.
New York, GA special from
ST. Johns says: The French brig
Senovins went ashore On Grand
Banks on Friday and was 8 total
wreck in fifteen minutes. Fifty
three passengers and nine OF the
crew were lost. SenoVine was caught
in a fog and the captain lost his
bearings. He was making for this
point going Glow W hen she struck.
The widest disorder prevailed, the
officers and crew making for the
boats and leaving the passengers to
take care OF themselves. One boat
containing twenty passengers and
some of the crew was swamped
after it got away from the steamer
by the lurchipg of the vessel. The
screams of the women were heart
rending. Most of them sank i'm
mediateIy. The men struggled, but
only a few OF them succeeded in
catching floating spars. The cap
tain was unable to maintain dieci>
pine among the passengers. Many
chung to the rigging after tho first
shock, thinking the vessel could
stand the strain and thought they
wsuld be picked up when the fog
cleared, but when the vessel went
to pieces they were lost. Only
about twenty were saved.
st. Johns, n. F., "a Following
are the only details ootainahle of
the loss Of the French brig SanOrine:
The vessel left st. Malo on the 1st
of March (not the 9TH, as previously
reported), laden with salt, provls-
ions and general cargo, and bound
for St. Pierre. Had ships com.
pany of nine hands, all told, and
fifty three French assengers.
About the 10th of April she was
sigualled in q drift OF ice on the
eastern edge OF the great bank; a
few days after a strong gale arose
from the southwest, and with var1-
Gus changes and veering continued
into MAY. On the same date, first
week in May her bows and sides
were crushed in by ice, and she
sank without giving any warning
carrying down every soul on board.
British clipper schooner "Consuels'
passed by the scene shortly after
ward and picked up sufficient debris
and general wrecksge as to identify
with certainty both that she WAS
and her actual doom. "Con-
sueIs" took on board some beds,
trunks baskets, and clothing that
doubtless f1osted,out and up fromthe
crushed and collapsing vessel. No
further particulars are ascertainable
nor ever will be. She sank and
made no sign.

Under the special ordst of the
House, this day was assigned to
measures called up by the com nit
tee on nava, affairs.
The first bill called up was the
Senate bill granting permission to
L. K. Reynolds, q. S. navy, to &C.
cept the decoration Of the Royal and
Imperial order of Francis Joseph
from the government Of Austria for
gallsntry in saving the lives Of
eleven Austrian sailors.

saying: "Dndes, in the navy were
continually asking permission to ac-
cept decorations.
Cox On. Y } said Reynolds saved
the lives at imminent peril to his
own and for it he had been insulted
here to-day by this man Robinson.
Kasson said the gentleman from
New York (RobinsoD) was persist
ant in dishonoring his own country
men, by denying to them the praise
accorded them.
Robinson (excitedly) l wasn't the
words taken down that am a dis,

Ger does dishonor the navy officers.
The bill was then passed, Robin
son being unable to muster suffi-
Gent following to call the yeas and

An Election MIDDLE.

New Orleans, "a. TO day the
adjutant general ordered q battalion
of Louisiana field artillery to hold
themselves in readiness ~ move at
moments notice to the scene OF
trouble at New Iberia. The MILF
tary, however, hiss not yet been or
dered to move. Ii is understood
there is considerable excitement IL
New Iberia growing out of the con
test for the judgeship OF the
Twenty-first judicial district, be-
tween Gates claiming to have been
elected over Fontinellesu, the pres
ent incumbent. This is one Of the
cases referred to in the
resolutions adopted by the
Republican State central com.
mittee. Last week the Senate
committee considered the petition
and memorial which Gates reported
impeaching Fontinelieau, who is 8
Republican. Gates, after much de-
lay aud manipulate of votes, was
declared elected at the recent cleo
ton. AS showing how this result
was brought about, Fontinelleau's
friends claim that one precinct.
known as Bayou Rigeon, which al
the date of the recent election was
overlooked, and the election officers
made no provision for an election
there, as no voting had ever been
done at that point. the fifteen or
twenty voters residing in that sec
ton having heretofore voted else
where. At the last election, how
ever, they decided themselves to
hold an election, and returned nearly
900 votes from that precinct for
Gates, thus electing him. FOntinel-
Ieau's friends declare they will not
allow Gates to preside in the dis
trict, and the State authorities have
determined to seat Gates by force if
necessary.
Later-It seems that reports con-
corning the political situation in this
and adjoining parishes are very
much exaggerated. So far there
has been no disturbance, except a
few days ago, crowd of hoodlums
composed of Fontinelleau's backers.
paraded the street firing cannon
and pif tolls, and making threats that
the would spill the last drop OF their
blood In seating FontinelIeau. The
past two weeks have been quiet,
but all sorts of rumors are all Loaf, one
to the effect that Fontinellesu is
negroes to defend him,
and help to resist the seating OF
Gates. Exciting rumors run high
the past few days, the cause Of
which is the supposed forming of a
company In st. Martins
parish. Things are about as they
are here. The attempt yesterday to
burn the court house of st. Martins
parish caused some commotion; ;
there is great deal of talk In both
parishes about the incendiary object
which induced the firing of the
court house; parties unknown.
Little damage done. The rumors
greatly damage the business of New

to come TO town. They think war
