The Senate Committee on Post- offices and Postroads, agreed to report favorably on the nomination of Wiek- ersham to be Postmuster at Mobile. Senator Spencer has been strongly opposed to tne nomination. SUCCESSOR TO M’CORMICK. In view of the determination of Gov. McCormick to retire from the office of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, there is a strong movement on the part of the friends of Hon. George E. Harris, present Attorney General of Mississippi, to place him in that position. NOMINATIONS. James R. Jolley, Collector of Cus toms, Teclie, La. ETSTIS’ STATEMENT. Eustis’ submitted a brief report. Referred to a sub-committee to report to a full committee to-morrow. REPORTS TO NAVY DEPARTMENT. The Navy Department has advices there is no need of anxiety for the safe ty of the torpedo boat alarm. The Department has nothing new from Huron. The Powhattan had return ed to Hampton Roads. The ship Bourton arrived at Norfolk at noon, with four officers and thirty enlisted men, survivors of the Huron, and also broughteight bodies. Travel between hero and Alexandria was interrupted to-day. Senator Withers, whose voice in the Senate was important to-day came upon the tug bout. The Senate after an hour and a half executive session, without confirming any one, resumed the consideration of tlie Butler case with a prospect of setting it out. FITZSIMMONS WILL GO THROUGH. The friends of Col. Fitzsimmons are not apprehensive of his defeat be fore the Senate in Executive session. They feel that in securing a report, though adverse from the Committee, liis confirmation is sure. The danger was that the nomination would be smothered there. ADVERSE REPORTS. In Executive session the Judiciary Committee reported adversely on Fitzsimmons and favorable on Har lan. They also made an adverse re port on Wharton’s nomination as United States Attorney for Kentucky. SCENE IN THE SENATE—EDMONDS DEFEATED AND LAUGHED AT. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] Washington, November 26.—The scene in the Senate to-day was wor thy a full statement but for the un fortunate condition of the wires. Mr. Edmunds met his first signal defeat by the rejection of his motion to refer a newspaper article, charging a bargain between Gen. Butler and Senator Patterson, to the Committee on Privileges and Elections. Had tills motion prevailed, as it was a sub stitute for Mr. Thurman’s resolution to discharge the committee from fur ther consideration of Butler’s creden tials, and empowered the committee to send for persons and papers, a vote as between Butler and Corbin would have been indefinitely postponed. Mr. Edmunds, however, made his resolution the vehicle of ungentle words towards Messrs. Patterson and Conover, whereupon Edmunds was handled for his course regarding Pinchback. Mr. Edmunds, they say, was de feated and laughed at for the first time to-day. The beuring of Conover and his ecli are pronounced excellent. Mr. speec , Patterson was somewhat excited and once pronounced a statement of Mr. Edmunds untrue. Mr. Thurman made the point that while these charges were pending against Mr. Patterson the majority liud made him chairman of the most important committees of the Senate. FORTY-FIFTH* CONG HESS. HOUSE XOT IX SESSIOX. Im Ornate Majority R.-l'oi t For Kellogg. Minority of Committee For Npollord— Tlie Duller t'a*e—Republican* Trying to Fire Out Judge Davl*. COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 27, 1877. NO. 219 as Senator from South Carolina, and Davis, of Illinois, explained the rea sons why he favored the motion to discharge the committee. Davis said it was important that the vacant seats from South Carolina and Louisiana be filled. The legislation of Congress was binding uiion the people of those States, and they had the right to expect that the claims for these seats should be acted upon at tlie earliest possible moment. Had the Committee on Privileges ami Elections reported in favor of seat ing Kellogg before tlie Senator from Ohio (Thurman) sub mitted his resolution to dis charge tlie Committee form tlie But ler ease, lie would have voted to con sider the Kellogg ease first but lie thought the resolution of Thurman having been submitted first was en titled to precedence. Edmunds after a brief reply moved the Senate proceed to tlie considera tion of Executive business. Rejected yeas 28 nays 30. Conover and Patterson voted with the Democrats in tlie negative. At five o’clock the Senate went into Executive session on the vote of Senator Davis, who said much Exec utive business required attention. A prolonged open session is expected ufter tlie doors are opened. Tlie House bill repealing resump tion was read and referred to the Committee on Finance. A resolution discharging tlie Committee from further consideration of tlie Butler case was resumed. Edmunds read an article from the New York Tribune, alleging Butler had used corrupt Influences in tlie lobby and tlie Senate itself, and Ed munds proposed as a substitute tliut this question be referred to the Com mittee. After a very short debate, the sub stitute was defeated by 27 to 30, Mat thews and Davis, of Illinois, voting witli the Democrats, and Patterson, against whom the resolution was main ly aimed, not voting. Tliequestion re curred on tlie main resolution and an all night session is probable. LATER. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] A number of dilatory motions liave been made by Republicans to put off tlie vote. They are having read pa pers as to tlie South Carolina election to kill time. The object is to tire out Judge Davis, of Illinois, and make him vote for adjournment. If lie don’t tire, to keep session up till 12 o'clock to-morrow, when tlie Kellogg case will be called up. 1IOITME. Tlie House is not in session.

Washington, November 26.— Wadleigh, from tlie Committee on Privileges and Elections, submitted a report, accompanied by a resolution, declaring W. P. Kellogg entitled to a seat as Senator from Louisiana for six years, from March 4tli, 1877. He asked tlie present consideration of the resolution, but objection was made by Merrimon, Withers and others, and tlie resolution was laid over until to-morrow. Merrimon submitted a minority re port, signed by Hill, Saulsbury and himself, in favor of seating Spoff'ord. Ordered printed. The House bill to repeal all tliut part of the act of January 14th, 1875, known ns the Resumption act, which authorizes tlie Secretary of tlie Treas ury to dispose of United States bonds and redeem and cancel greenback currency, was read by title and refer red to the Committee on Finance. The latter portion of tlie morning hour wns devoted to discussing tlie resolution submitted by Chaffee, call ing upon the President for informa tion us to what impediments exist which prevent him from executing laws against tlie Union Pacific and its branches, but before reaching a vote the morning hour expired, and the consideration resumed of tlie res olution to discharge tlie Committee on Privileges and Elections from tlie further consideration of tlie creden tials of M.

Tlie damage in and about the city is more than $100,000. Everything bordering on the Dan river and Big and Little Sandy rivers is swept away. THE VIRGINIA MIDLAND RAILROAD sustained much damage at this point. The iron bridge over the Stanton river on that rond is gone. Three other minor bridges on the saint' road were swept away. The road bed is washed in in many places. DANVILLE to-niglit is in darkness as the gas works are submerged and a number of houses swept away. The destructiveness of the freshet is incalculable. Thejriveris still rising. FROM CHARLOTTSVILLE. Charlottsville, November 26. All the streams in tlie neighborhood are greatly swollen, and tlie adjacent farms are suffering. Tlie Ruunnn river is as high as in 1870, but is now fulling. A portion of the iron bridge is gone and the balance seriously dam aged. The telegraph lines are down THE C. & O. RAILROAD is badly washed and all trains stop ped. The damage can’the estimated, but will be very great in this vicinity HIGHEST WATER KNOWN AT RICH MOND. Richmond, November 26.—Mid night.—The excitement in the lower part of tlie city is most intense. Peo ple residing and merchants doing business below Kt. Charles Hotel, on Main street, tlie point reached by the water during tlie great fiood of 1870, are moving goods from tlie stores and other places of business. The streets are alive with vehicles of every kind, and tlie people are en gaged in tlie work of removal. The waters from the region of Lynchburg are showing effect on tlie river, which is now rising at tlie rate of eighteen inches to two feet pel- hour, if this continues till morning, which is now probable, tlie water will be higher than the lioodof 1870. In theextreine lower portion of the city it lias reach ed 17th street, and is in a few feet of First Market, on Main street. FROM LYNCHBURG. A dispatcli from Lynchburg dated 10 ]). m., says : The river at this point is as high as in 1870, and still rising steadily. Tlie bridges are all goncanu tlie damage to all sorts of property is immense. The James river und Kan awha canal, between Lynchburg and Richmond, will probably sustain most serious damage by tlie overflow of the river and consequent breaking of its banks. The Hood of ’70 caused loss to the Canal Company of several hundred thousand dollars and the suspension of traffic for months, and this disaster is likely to be repeated. VIRGINIA COMMUNICATION BROKEN. Telegraphic and railroad communi cation throughout Virginia is broken up by tlie fiood. THE POTOM aSaT WASHINGTON AND ALEXANDRIA. Washington, November 26.—The Potomac is higher than since 1852. It is now falling and running at the rate of twenty-live miles an hour, bearing from above bridges, shanties, barrels, etc., swept away by the flood. The loss of property along tlie river front is very extensive. Barrels of whiskey and flour were recovered by men and boys in boats. Tugs uml other vessels parted cables and drifted with the current. Communi cation between Washington and Alexandria by railroad and boat is suspended. It is reported that south of Alexandria there are heavy washes on the railroads.

The fore-sail gone, the steamer struck between 1 unit 1:30 a. m. The boats washed from the boat davits, and the first cutter was swamped about ten minutes later. Lieutenant Puhner was drowned about tlie time Capt. Ryan saved himself by swim ming ashore. The signal observer at the scene of tlie Huron wreck reports tlie surf boat of tlie wrecking steamer, Ba ker, swamped with nine men, some of whom were lost, including Capt. J. J. Gutherie, Paymaster. MORE LOSSES. Captain Gutherie, of the Life Sav ing Station, was drowned yesterday in attempting to save the bodies from tlie steamer Huron. Lieut. Palmer of the Huron is lost. THIRTY-FOUR SURVIVORS AND EIGHT DEAD BODIES RECOVERED. Thirty-four survivors and eight dead bodies from tlie wreck of tlie Huron have been taken to Norfolk. RELIEF FOR THE HURON. Fortress Monroe, Nov. 26.—Ad miral Trenchnrd in the United States steamer Powhattan, with the other vessels he had, were dispatched to the wreck of the United States steamer Huron arrived off* Kitty Hawk at daylight Sunday. 114 DROWNED—30 SAVED. Tlie Fortune went down to Body Island, skirting the beach and look ing for the wreck. -'apt. Stoddart, in the Baker, fol lowed the beach down and found the wreck about 9 a. m. The sea was running very high, and there was no possibility of landing. The signal officers were sent to the Baker, and in this way communication witli tlie shore was established and we learned that one hundred and fourteen were drowned, and but thirty were saved, of whom four were officers. Admiral Trenchard then ordered the Hwatara to remain and bury tlie dead when landing could be made with safety. Captain Btoddart remained to wreck tlie vessel. Tlie Powhattan left for Hampton Roads at 1 o’clock p. in. and anchored at midnight, having passed a large vessel sunk. The two lower masts were about eight feet out of water. The topmasts were gone. EXPLANATION. New York, November 26.— To Ed itors: Bupplementthe Fortress Monroe dispatch witli the statement that this reporter was on board the Powhattan, and his figures of the saved ami lost are those current on that vessel, hut are not as trustworthy as tlie reports of Saturday and Sunday. WHAT THE SIGNAL OBSERVER RE PORTS. Washington, November 26.—Tlie signal service observer at tlie wreck of tlie Huron reports, at 1:40 p. m., as follows: No more bodies have been recovered. The tide is running strong northward, and it is probable a number will come ashore. The sea is too high to get a boat to tlie wreck. The body of a colored man from the Baker’s boat was washed up during the night. NOTHING ADDITIONAL. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] Washington, November 26.—The signal service observer nt tlie wreck of tlie Huron reports, nt 7:30 p. m.: No change since last report.

Constantinople, November 26.— An order is issued calling out 150,000 civic guards in Constantinople, and tlie province to maintain order during tlie probable advance of regular forces. Christians are summoned to partici pate in this. TURKISH ENDEAVORS. Special to Enquircr-8un.] London, November 26.—A special to the Times from Pern, 22d, says the view taken of Osman Pasha’s position is on tlie whole desponding, but some maintain hellos provisions enough to hold out until Meliemet Ali can or ganize an nrmy of relief, and great efforts are being made to accomplish tills end. There is talk of giving Baker Pasha an important command to assist him. MEDIATION RUMORS FALSE. Washington, Nov. 26.—All reports of mediation in the Eastern war are false. ARE THEY FOR PEACE OR NOT? London, Nov. 26.—A special from Constantinople says the Hu 1 tan has expressed his intention to treat sepa- Hitely with life Czar. He abandons all idea of applying to any foreign Power for mediation. A special from Ht. Petersburg Rays tlie Russian news papers profess li strong desire for There is much talk of direct peace negotiation with tlie Porte, and the probability of such a settlement is said to grow stronger daily. Russia is reported to be making special ex ertions to secure alany rate England’s exclusion from negotiations. Nobody here (jives much heed now to tlie talk of peace. A Russian official dis patch announces tlie Russians on Saturday captured the fortified town ofEthrapal with a trilling loss. The Turks fled in disorder. MORE MONTENEGRIN SUCCESSES. Sj)ccial to Enquirer-Sun.] London, Nov. 26.—It is stated that the Turks evacuated Orclianie Satur day.

I.EFT XOT PIEASEO WITH THE XEJV MIX I HTll V. ■'lltimber by aas to tod Vote nisngree- menl With Netv Mlnl.try. Versailles, Nov. 25.—The new ministry made statements in both Houses yesterday, claiming that they were organized on no political basis, " M( eput Ferry moved in behalf of the Left that the Chamber considers that the ministry by its composition is a deni al of the national rights of parliamen tary law, and can only aggravate the crisis which has cruelly weighted business since the 16th of May, and can not enter into relations with this ministry. The motion was adopted 323 against 208 after a Bonnpartist mo tion for an order in tlie day, pure and simple had been rejected by a similar number. DISSATISFIED with the cabinet. Paris, November 26.—The Soiled says a fresh dissolution, if voted by the Senate would complicate instead of solving tlie crisis. The Jicpublique Frnne.aisc de manded the withdrawal of the new cabinet and renews its argument in favor of a Congress of the two Houses to definitely settle upon constitution al questions. He vocal Conservative papers say the government will call upon the Senate to declare openly for or against it. influence of probable vacancy IN THE HOLY SEE. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] London, Nov. 6 2.—The Paris cor respondent of the Timm telegraphs as follows: It is said and I cite tlie opin ion of the most reflecting men, for it throws light on passing events, that one great obstacle to tlie reconcilation of public (lowers is that the prompt ers of the Executive foresee tliut at no distant date, through a vacancy in the Holy Sec, France may have to play an ‘important part, and are re solved ut any cost tliut the office si ml 1 not then be held by the Liberals, who not only would not pursue the tradi- ditioual French policy, hut might add Immense strength to quite an oppo site coourse. From this point of view many things, otherwise obscure, become intelligible, and one can un derstand how the eoup of the Kith of May, though evidently directed against the'Liberal party,was not designed to favor any other particular faction. This also explains the formation of the new Cabinet. Neither a Repub lican nor a Bonnpartist Ministry can satisfy those governed by special anx iety, for the latter would not serve their interests, hut would dissolve the Chamber only for the benefit of the Empire. Now, in the view which governs the policy of the Elysee, dis solution with or without the budget being voted, would continue tlie power for some time in the hands of those who regard external interests as paramount. ENGLAND. Havoc on (lie t'onat, London, Nov. 26.—A fearful gale raged along the English coast yester day and a large number of vessels are ashore and great loss of life lias occur red.

Last Saturday a number of the Mormon converts and their families reached here by private conveyance, from near Rome, Ga., and went into camp, awaiting the arrival of their brethren and sisters from the Sand Mountain, who were to join them ut this place, where all were to take tlie ears for New Mexico. Some of them were hero three days, and a number of them were "inter viewed” by our townsmen. They seemed very much in earnest in the belief that they wore “fleeing from tlie wrath to come” by leaving this part of tlie country, and following after the faith of the prophet, Jo Smith.

"Nearly all tlie adverse criticism lias been about my dresses. I am so glad it was not about me. There is that poor, poor dress I wore as Pauline; it luis been wittily trailed through columns. They call it yel low. in point of fuel it is a peach colored satin, trimmed with bluet lace and velvet. It is not especially a modern dress ; it lias a trail, and I take it that u trail was a proper and oiirtly feature one hundred years ago. I certainly take great pains with my dresses.'

"Because I think 1 mil young enough to lie known as eighteen. Very likely when I gel older I shall have it fourteen. "But Hiddons is always ‘not eighteen,’ and in Gar rick’s text, which is generally used, it is printed‘not eighteen.’ I think, perhaps, I am a little sensitive of any thing suggesting extreme youth, be cause of what lias been said of me.

I have a room ful of swords uml dumb-bells and clubs, and I practice with them every day. Unwomanly, you think, per haps? Well, il lias made my hands very big and course [it has not], but I thought it was better to have health than little hands. I was not strong nt all when I began, and now I am full of health. Nothing hurts me; I am never sick. My father taught mo fencing. I remember how pleased lie was, and I too, the first time 1 dis armed him. You see, I have a wrist for it—at least my father says 1 have. Mr. Plympton cautioned me against taking’ undue advantage of linn as Pauline.

The Wonderful Dream of n !tlm**nrliu« ■etl* Ynimg Idttl.v nud II* Fulfill ment. Host on J*ost.] The ease of Miss Agnes 'Eagan, the operative in tv Full River mill, spoken of ill the Pout of Friday last, is one of singular interest, and has created con siderable comment among those fa miliar with the facts. That her dream should ho impressed upon her mind witli so much force, and after wards prove true, even to (lie slightest detail, is wonderful. The following are the facts of the ease us near as eun he learned: Miss Eagan is a young lady nineteen years of age, who lives with her mother and two sisters ut tlie corner of Seventh and Bedford streets, Full River, and lias been em ployed for some time past in the Gran ite mill in tliut city. She is of a very cheerful disposition, pleasant, genial niul obliging; in fuel, the light of her home and a favorite with all who know her. Her manner is refined and ladylike; in feature amt form she is comely, uml for one in her con dition she is remarkably intelligent. But for the past six weeks she lias appeared like one in a dream, sober, taciturn and melancholy, us if she hud a foreboding of some coming mis fortune. On Tuesday, the (itli inst., she appeared more cheerful than she had been for some time. She retired at the usual hour, Lilt on arising tho next morning was very much de pressed, anil cm being questioned as to the cause replied : ‘‘I hail a fearful (Irenm last night. I thought that I went to tho mill and was bilking with one of tlie girls, and while talking with her I was sud denly unable to make any noise and • I ill not speak again, hut was able to hear anything tliut was said.” Her friends laughed ut her and said she was foolish to let such a thing worry her, and endeavored to draw her mind from the subject, hut in vain. She continued to talk about the mat ter while in the house, and on arriv ing at the mill she told her associates about it, uml they also endeavored to show her tlie folly of her fear, hut to no purpose. About eleven o’clock one of her chums said to her: “Agnes, are you going to the party to-morrow night?” She replied. “No, 1 think not; Ido "and she was dumb. Her dream was a dream no longer, hut a stern reality. Not a sound could she make. The shock was preceded by a sharp, tingling sensation in tlie throat, extending through the entire system. She made known her con dition liy means of writing; and a physician was ut once summoned, who pronounced (lie attack a nervous one, and stated that with cure she would recover; that many persons have lost their voices in the same manner, and advised the use of the electric battery. But the young lady refused to subject herself to that mode of treatment and stated that she was confident if they did she would also lose tlie sense of sight and hearing. Since tlie attack Miss Eagan has re covered her former cheerful disposi tion, and is apparently as happy and contented an before tier misfortune. She lias resumed her duties at the mill, uml her friends hope that witli care she will in time recover her speech. She passes among them as of old, lad her voice is hushed, and tliu power to articulate seems to have gone from her entirely. see me inn about era! Sir “And what man?” “He is un old friend. You think, Gel-Imps, lie is a very stern, cold man, Imt heisno sui-li tiling. He writes the most charming letters you ever saw, and lie talks just as he writes. And, dear me! how many questions lie asks. Whenever lie conics to see us lie wants to know how many rooms we have, and how much we pay for them, and where we came from last, and where we are going next—all of which is good to hear, though I do laugh." “Suppose I were to put to you a very comprehensive question, ami ask you for u little sketch of your life.” "Sir," I was horn eighteen years ago—no, it is nelfrly nineteen now— young nineteen, I think, my mother calls mo, and I caught very early a great passion for the stage, and the same I would not now forsake for tlie world -no, indeed; no prospect of idleness and luxury could lure me from it.
