InI irst consignment Of sugar has ar
rived In Monterey from the improved
refinery Of Carlos Martinez, under the
superintendence Of Miguel Maria Ieran.
at Sabinas llidalgo, near the line of the
Mexican National Railway. The Revis-
ia, speaking Of IL, says, although 1t is
the first product, that II viii compare
fayorably with the very finest imported
sugar in whiteness and granulatiun.
This factory is Of the latest improved,
and is placed in the very sugar fields OF
Northern Mexico, thereby filling these
great essentials Of a manufacturing en-
terprise 10y being situated In the heart OF
the production Of the raw material. and
its management being in practical hands,
the results OF The enterprise is assured.
There are two more improved retineries
established in tue same state, and In
this. the state of Nuevo Leon, is taken
long step towards the development of
its natural resources and ultimate pros
perlty. Thus will be saved to that sec
tlon thousands upon thousands Of dol
lars which have annually been sent
abroad for what could be produced In
great abundance in their midst, and at
the same time remunerative employment
furnished to large portion of the
people, all Of Which combine the strong
est elements Of prosperity. In the sugar
industry lies one of the strongest hopes
OF Northern Mexico.

said that his attention had been called to
a newspaper paragraph charging him
with having INDUCED in very harsh and
unjust criticism upon the gentleman from
PcDnsy lvania Mr.. Randall). This para
graph had reference to a conference be-
tween himself and some friends in Wheel
ing. At this conference the tariff had
been spoken of, and, of course, Mr. Ran
dalPs name had been mentioned. So far
from making any unkind allusicn to that
gentleman he had declared that while he
might differ from him on some subjects
Mr.. Randalrs long record bad taught MIN
to respect his capacity and integrity.
The Speaker appointed Messrs. COBB,
Henley and PaysOn as cOnterees on the

of the House, and making statement
that Mr.. YOuug's expenses during the
Hot Springs investigation amounted to

statement.
Mr.. Willis, Of Kentucky, reported the

ALBANY, \. Y, Jan. 1.-THE contest
in tie Republican party which has been
virtually brought to a close Ivy the with
drawal of both Messrs. HiscOck and Rus
sell in favor of Mr.. Fyarts. has been not
so much a contest for present hOnOrs as
it has been for vantage for the future con-
troll of the Republican party. Two re-
suits now seem to have been achieved,
the first being the retirement of the Ar
thur stalWarts from a position of IN
fiuencn in the party. SO long as Presi-
dent Arthur was even remotely connected
with the contest the opposition to MIR.
Morton was handicapped. 1t was not
president Arjhur's sO-called free trade
notions that aroused the popular feeling
against him. Warren Draper and 9TH
erS may write any number of
letters to prove that President
Arthur contributed to the Blaine canvass.
The rank and file of the Republican party
do not believe it and cannot be made to
believe II. The great bulk Of the Repub-
Hcan party wanted to win, and IN this
wish they do not believe President Arthur
participated, but although they desired
Blaine TO win after he had been n0mi-
mated they 40 not care to have him nOmi-
mated again. The retirement of Platt,
Payn, Cornell and their stalwart
following is The retirement of the
forces which We're seeking to pave
the way for Blaine's denomination
in 1855. Its leaders made no conceal
ment Of this fact and have all along
counted on it as winning card. This
fact has been appreciated at its true sig
nifcance BY the Republican politicians Of
the State, and all clements have come TO
Albany for the express purpose Of break
ing the Platt-COrneI combination. II
Arthur has been removed from politics
by the events in Albany during the mast
fortnight, his friends have taken care
that so far as this State is Concerned.
Blaine has gone down with him.

IRREGULARITIES IN TWO BANKS.
HOSE WITH sIxTnHS LIVES.

The Fcers Concerning the Packet Ad-
miral MoorsoIn Prove Wei Founded.
LIVERPOOL, Jan. 1.-THE fears enter
tanned yesterday for the safety of the
packet steamer Admiral MOorsom, plying
batween Dublin and Holybead, prove to
have been fully justified. The steamer
collided with the American ship Santa
Clara, from Liverpool for New York, and
1g,as sunk. The Santa Clara landed y Of
the sunken steamers crew and two Of her
passengers at Holyhead. The lost
steamer was a staunch built vessel of
some 800 tons burthen, and was one Of a
fleet of freight and passenger steamers
owned by the London and North western
Railway, and run IN connection with their
train service. The steamer carried a crew
of between 90 and 80 persons.
SIXTEEN LIVES LOST.
The Captain of the Santa Clara reports
that his vessel came into collision with
the Admiral Moorsom Thursday evening
off Holyhead. The Santa Clara was but
little damaged, but the Admiral Moorsom,
which was struck nearly amidship, sank
almost Immediately. The Captain and
crew Of the Santa Clara did all in their
power to save the lives of those on board
the sinking vessel, but a heavy sea was
on at the time Of the collision and twelve
of the crew and four Of the passengers
were drowned. The remainder of the
crew and passengers of the Inflated
packet not rescued by the Santa Clara
were picked up by another vessel and are
supposed to be safe.
Later accounts from Holyhead state
that the Admiral MOOrsOm had sixteen
passengers on board and that only two of
them were saved.
Another account Of the sinking of the
Admiral MoorsOm, received this evening,
says that from ten to fifteen Of the persons
on board the steamer at the time Of the
collision, including six of the crew, are
missing. The steamer sank in few
minutes, Two of her sailors climbed into
the rigging of the Santa Clara. A num-
Der of others, including two soldiers.
took to a boat, which was rescued by the
Santa Clara. 1t is feared that the rest of
those on board the steamer, including two
women, were lost. The Santa CIara's
head gear was slightly damaged. She
was tOWed to HOlyhead.
