the steamship, which had made her way up the
Bay during the night. Besides the crew. who
number seventy-eight there were seventy-sN iirst-
class passengers, sixty-eight second class, anu

second Glass passengers as all well, but when he
came to the steerage, DR.. Gervais, the surgeon Of
La Bourgogne, called his attention to JACOB Couri'
who had been isolated for two days from the resi-
of the passengers as the doctor was AFRAID ne was
suffering from some contagious disease
Dr. Skinner made a careful examination ol
the man and decided that he was suherlhg from
malignant typhus one of the most feared ana con-
t0gious of diseases. AS soon as poSSioie '"c n'H

There were six of them, and they have given up

DUTY FOR REPUBLICAN, SENATORS.
WHY THE LAUGHuN RESOLUTION SHOULD DE

WHY THE LAUGHLIN RESOLUTION SHOULD BE
INSISTED ON-PHAsEs OF THE SITUATION.
Albany, April 19.-It Is hardly probable that the
state Senate will do any business for several days to
come in consequence Of the deadlock over Senator
Iaughllns resolution for canal investigation. Sen
ator sexton, who returned from New-York last night,
said
Every Republican Senator that saw in New-Iork
was emphatically of the opinion that we should insist
upon the passage Of Senator Laughlln's resolution
before any other legislative work is done, and TO per-
sst in this determination If no other work is done
by the state Senate before April 30, when We are TO
adjourn. 1t IS their opinion that the Republicans
in the Legislature well appeal TO the people to
uphold them In their demand that state department
which expends millions Of the peoples money shall
submit to an examination of its expenditure Of that
money l am sure that the people would sustain the
Republican party upon such an ISSUE
The chieftalns Of Tammany Hall are filed with dis
may in Consequence of the deadlock in tile Senate
senator Hendricks, the chairman Of the Committee
on Cities, has put away in safe Tammmy HANS
bill appropratng So 100000 additional for streetpav
ing in New-York, and the bill apprOprlating S5QoOOo
additional for street-cleanng. Mr. Hendricks is
firm man, and he intends to retain possession OF
the bills. The Tammany chieftans see much patron
age in the measures and are consequently nconsoable
at the present moment over the deadlock
In other respects, als0 the deadlock is beneficial
It has, for instance, locked up permanently tho Dii
lust passed by the Democratic Assembly breaking
down the temperance laws of the State, tie Dill
generally known the schaatf sundry Liquor Dill"
The uonordealcrs will be more than ever convinced
that David b. Hill Is an inslncere man when they see
that he has created u deadlock which prevents
consideration Of their BILL

to cast refuse on the party in the yard. Magra
naturally objected to this ard complained TO the house
keeper, man named Mousch. There the usual
excited squabble and then man whom Magra did
not know walked into the crowd and deliberately slapped
him in the face
This was all the provocation the mob needed.
The next moment dozen revolver shots rang out
in the ar, knives were drawn and within breathing
space highly respectable free fight was in progress
Ferdinand MagranO, another laborer who lives in the
same house, had watched the fight from an adjoining
window, and presently made up his mind to tlke hand

A CHANCE TO SAVE THE CONGO TREATY.
THE UNITED STATES AND BELGIUM ARRIVE AT
An UNDERSTANDING.

THE UNITED STATES AND BELGIUM ARRIVE AT
AN UNDERSTANDING.
Washington, April tSpecaD.-A" general act"
was signed at Brussels on July by the plenipo-
tentiaries of the United States and other Powers
for the repression of the African slave trade and
the restriction of the importation and sale IN
certain defined zone of the African continent of
firearms, ammunition and spiritu0us liquors.
The act provided in Article XCIX. for the de-
posit Of the ratifcations thereof at Brussels by
July next, but as the United States Senate ad-
jcurned without definite action in regard to this
matter it became necessary, in order that the work
accomplished by the Brussels Conference might
not be wholly lost, to arrive at an understanding
under the terms of which in the case of the United
States the time for the disposition of the ratica-
ton might be extended TO within reasonable
time after the next regular meeting of the Senate.
Such an agreement has been reached by Secretary
Blaine and the Belgian Minister, acting IN pehalI
of the Government of the King OF the Belslans,
that Government having been made, under the
provisions of the general act the depository OF the
notifications of all the Powers taking part LII the
Conference,
