mar.
ALBANY, n. Y, Jan. AT the Re-
publican assembly caucus meeting to-
night the following resolutions, offered
by Assemblyman John I. Platt, of
Dutchess county, were passed:
Resolved. That the safety of our insti-
buttons and the proper administration
OF our laws require that the court shall
be protected with the most jealous care
from any faint of completely with crime
in any form, and the bench of the SUI
preme court of the United States. the
highest in the land. is the one place
which should be forever sacred from
the intrusion of disloyalty, dishonor or
fraud.
Resolved, That the nomination to
seat OH that bench of l.. @. G.. Lamar,
who violated his oath of allegiance to
go into rebellion against the union: who
has declared by his vote that the amend
mentS to the constitution, which were
pledges Of reconstruction and the EN-
Judgments of the results of the war, are
not equally binding with the rest of the
constitution: who has denied that levy
ing war against the government was
treason. and who owes his seat in the
senate and his political power and pro-
minence solely to the suppression of
Republican votes by violence and fraud,
was an insult to the entire loyal popula-
ton of this union, and we demand of
the Republican senators from this state
that they resent that insult by voting
against his confirmation.
Resolved, That copy of these resolu-
lions be transmitted to Senators Evarts
and HiScOck.

HEAVY MAILS.
The New York PoStoffice DeIuged
With Foreign Mails,

New YORK, Jan. 2.-Smday and Sat
urday were heavy foreign mail days in
the postOffice. A steamer from Queens
town generally brings not more than
400 or 500 sacks of letters and papers,
but the Germanic Saturday brought 740
sacks, and besides that there were five
other vessels from various foreign ports
which brought mail matter amounting
altogether to 1,035 bags. Each bag will
average about 100 pounds of letters.
Yesterday the Etruria brought 80 bags
from London and the Bretagne 100 from
Havre. This makes the total for the
two days 1885 sacks of foreign mail.
The cause of these large foreign mails
is found partly in the holiday remem-
ORANGES from abroad, and partly in the
fact that business between England and
the United States at this season is eS-
pecially active. The first big batch of
holiday mail from the old country was
received Sunday, week ago, when the
Britannia brought 975 bags. This was
ready for delivery the Monday after
Christmas, and was the largest single
delivery of foreign mail ever received
in the United States. Postmaster Pear
son received yesterday the yerffication
receipts from the London pOstOffice of
the money orders sent from this county
in the two weeks before Christmas.
There were $4,000 separate remittaneeS!
Most of them were intended for preS4
entS to the old folks at home.

The Tonawanda Wrecked.

NEW YORK, JAM 2.-During the fear
full storm which ragged along the Jersey
coast yesterday the steamship Tona-
wanda, a coaster" engaged in the
Southern trade, was laboring heavily to
the ''south'a and BASTARD" of Brigan-
tine beach. Her distress attracted the
attention of the life saving station at
Brigantine beach, and after gallant
struggle with the waves, which washed
over and over her, burying the vessel
in masses of seething water, the battered
steamship was apparently disabled at a
point about sixteen miles southwest of
Brigantine beach. After desperate eff
forts boat was launched, and the mate
and two Seamen started for the shore in
the frail craft, the first officer being the
bearer of a telegram. But terrible sea
whirled the boat around and capsized
her when near the land, and in spite of
the efforts of the life savers, the mate
and one of the Seamen were drowned.
By miracle the third man was saved,
and is now at the station. The telegram
was lost and the vessel needs assistance.
The steamship Jonawanda was built in
Philadelphia in 1864. is of s45 tons bur-
den, and belongs to the South Brooklyn
