The English. Marriage Law, The Legislature at Victoria; Ausir&lia, has passed a bill for legalizing a man's marriage with his deceased wile's Mtier. The bill awaits tho signature ol the Queen, and, a? thia ls not the first time that a British colony has asked lor and received the royal assent to a bill ot thia descrlpiion, there ls little doubt that the un-Levitlcal Australians will ha& their wishes granted, and thus be able to repeat their own mother-in-law. A R?markabIo Book. The biggest, and perhaps the oddest book which has ever been "constructed," Is Just now in process of building In Paris. It Is the book which shall contain the names of those Inhabitants of Alsace and Lorraine who have now formally proclaimed their wish to remain French subjects. The book will possess a certain historical, or at ?east Genealogical in? terest. Thelist ls said to comprise three hun? dred and eighty thousand carnes. The Patrie states that one hundred and twenty-five com? positors have been employed on the work for the last three mouths, that lt is being piloted on seven presses, and that it will form a vol? ume cl' thirteen thousand one hundred and 8lxty-thr ?e pa?-* Th* Parla Street Singer* are n:>t permitted to carry on their business wi.nout registering their names at the police headquarters, and no song can be sung until lt has obtained official approval. Each regis? tered singer is supplied with a badge, which must at all times be produced upon the re? quest of the authorities. The number Is limit? ed to one buodred, but at present lhere are not more than about sixty. Thc principal Itinerant songster ls Jules Beaumeoter, who ls as well known throughout all Paris as the president cf the Republic. He is said to have made a large fortune by bis trade, and ls far more capable of giving than half the people who drop franca into bis hat. The applicants lor badges are closely questioned by the au? thorities, though their vocal powers are sel? dom taken into consid?rai lon. ? Corner in Hat?. Since the order issued by the Japanese Gov? ernment requiring the natives to t ut off their queues Yokohama ls said to present the ap? pearance of being inhabited by priests, with only a few weeks' crop of hair on their skulls. Sev-ral cunning speculators, as Boon as the order was issued, bought up all tue bats In the city, and the price of head coverings rose greatly in consequence. All the orders sent to Kobe nod O-mka could not be Ailed, nor would they supply the demand If they were. Uany new orders for hats from Europe and America have been the consequence. The hat stores In these countries will doubtless ship their old slock to Jap tn, and, though the bat famine will be relieved, yet the pro? spective flood of all manner of horribly un? fashionable toggery for the head Is regarded os something appalling io tblok ol. Pinning Thing? In Egypt. Alexandria IU Eg) pt hus grown more rapid? ly than any other city on the Eastern Conti? nent. In 1*42 Its population was about 60,000, and now lt Is nearly 300.000. Some Idea of the immense labor which has been expended In Improving the harbor may be formed from the fact thai a breakwater ls In process of construction, to be when completed a mlle In length. It ls to be composed of twenty thous? and blocks, each one of not le ?s than twenty j tons weight, placed upon a bed ol smaller Btooes. This breakwater will et close a harbor with a superficial area of fifteen hundred acres, nowhere of a less depth than thirty f?et. In ihe midst of ihe grand canal a com? pany of English engineers is at work blasting ont rocks, and employs constantly about two thousand men and forty steam engines. In 1871 the exporlB amounted to 300,000,000 and the Imports to 175.000 000 franc*. ? haring among the Celestial*. A fellow who has beeu shaved lo China Bays tho barber first Btrapped the razor on his leg, and then did the shaving without any lather. The customer remonstrated, but was told that the lather was entirely useless, and had a ten? dency to make the hair stiff and lough, and was, therefore, netrer used by persons who had any knowledge ol the face and Its ap? pendages. After the beard had been taken off-and lt was done in a very short lime-the barber , look a long, sharp, needle-beaded spoon and begun to explore the customer's ear. Then the barber suddenly twisted his subject's neck to one side In such a manner that lt cracked as If the vertebres had been dislocated- "Hold on 1" shouted ihe party, alarmed for the safety of his neck. "AH right," replied Ihe tonsor; "me no hurt you;" and he continued to Jerk and twist ihe bead until lt was as Umber as an old lady's nish rag. He then fell to bealing t e back, breast, arms and sides-with his fists, then he pummelled the muscles till they fairly glowed with the beating, they .received. He then dashed a bucket of cold water over his man, dried his skin with towels, and declared thai his work was done. Price two cents. ? Justice'* Juatieo." There ls a kind of English Justice which the London papers are in ihe habit ot calling "Justice's Justice." It ls that sort of j is ti ce which Is now and then meted ont by the jaunty magistrales-who are not lawyers, but local magnates-to the offendlug poor of their neighborhoods. The county magistrate is above all a personage wno considers lt his first and sacred duty to protect the property Ol'the rlob. A oase occurred recently at Lui terworib, Illustrative of this trail aod of "Jus? tice's Justice" in general. The three magis? trates who sit on the Linter worth bench are nil Church of England clergymen, and on the occasion referred to an old woman between seventy and eighty years of age was brought before ibero, charged by a policeman with having "malPiously done damage to a hedge lenoe to the amount of one penny." The old woman was deaf and could not hear the evi? dence; but In answer to the charge said meek? ly that she bad merely broken off a piece of dead wood from the hedge with her foot. The reverend Judges thereupon sentenced her to about one pound fine and costs or suffer a week's Imprisonment, knowing well enough, ns It appears, lhat the poor old dame was on the parish, and would, of course, have to go to Jail. Aud that la "Jumice's Justice." Atarr/lng a Moor. The Gibraltar Cnrouicie gives an account of a marriage ceremony recently witnessed in Tangier, the bridegroom being his highness the sheriff of Gtiazan, a lineal descendant of Mahomet, and the bride MISB Keen, an Eng? lish Christian indy, for eome lime resident in Morocco. The bride rode to the Bril lsh consu? late on an Arab horse covered with a scarlet saddlecloth embroidered with gold, and was there presented by the bridegroom to Slr ^John Hay Drummond, who officiated at the marriage ooremoBj. After the usual rites had been performed the wedded pair rode back to their hotel, where a sumptuous ban? quet was held, tho consulate body and other distinguished officers ol Hie government being present In rf gal array. The bridegroom was arrayed in a flowing Eastern dress ot dark blue, and was attended by a guard of Moorish soldiers. The lestlviiles were kept up until late into the evening, aud at the conclusion of the ceremonies ihe happy couple were driven to the country house ol t::e sheriff. The bridegroom is a personage of the greatest Im? portance In Morocco, and won an enviable dls ] i action throughout the country during the war with Spain. By ber marriage to a Mo? hammedan Mies Keen forfeits the protection ot the English law and becomes one of the four wives of her husband. A Strange Romance. The husband ot the celebrated stager, Ma? dame BOF?O, has Just died. He was a Greek named Xindavelools, and M. Frederic Galllau det, In the Courier des Etats Unis, gives a short summary of the romantic and ead story of bis marriage. Angelina BOH?O was In the midst of a successful career as a sbger, when io Copenhaprea she met a handsome Spaniard, and, though warned that he was a mat? ol bad character, married him. Il was not lODg be? fore, after retiring to her dressing-room one evening after singing, she was confr?nted by a former wife of the man she matried. A separation, ol course, was Inevitable. The singer gave herself up to despair. Xiudave lonis was then in ber service as courier, facto? tum, general agent. His heart was touched; he was wretched; he rushed into the presence of his mUtress. "Madame, I love you !" She refused, but reflected. She Anally accepted bim as the guardian of her unborn child. They were to be to eacb other brother and sister only, however, throughout life. Xlnda velonls thought that his love would change this hard coalition in time, but it never did. And La HOMO led him a life; ehe came to dis? like him, thought he was laying by, out ol her earnings, a sum for a rainy day, as he proba? bly was; came at last very neal seeking a di? vorce from him. Xmdavelonlswalled. lishe bad the scratching propensities ol the cat, he bad the patience ol the dog. Al last she died, and Xmdavelonls erected a superb mausoleum over ber, and spent her money freely, and now bas died himself. FROM POVERTY IO WEALTH. King Cotton and tbe Government-The Wife of a Late Citizen of Savannah Recover? $95,000. Mrs. McDaniel, the widow ol a deceased citizen of Savannah., ls at present living In Atlanta, having gone lhere after her hus? band's death. She had formerly been In easy circumstances, but the rev. rses of the wir lelt her husband poor, nod bis death shortly after Its close only rendered ber con? dition worse. She went to Atlanta, where she has since earned a support with her needle by unremitting Industry. But In the midst of her troubles and trials she recently became the possessor of the snug little sum of $95,000. HOW IT CAME ABOUT ls thus related by the Atlanta pupers: During the war Mr. McDaniel purciiused a large amount ol cotton aud stored it in or near the cliy When S wannah was taken possession of by the Yankees, thia colton was taken In the name of the Government of the United Slates an i confiscated. Belore and during inn war Mr. McDaniel was a man In affinem elf? cumeiunces, but, like thousands ot oitiers, m?. close ot the war found bim reduced lo pov? erty, and shortly allerwaros he died, ana his widow went to Atlanta, as above slated. The Sun says that, by advice, she was Induced to put In a claim at Washington for the cotton belonging to her husband, and the services of lacers al tne seat ot government were pro? cured to prosecute the claim. Mrs. McDaniel did cot sit down and wail for the issue of ihe suit, but, ns state' went to work to earn un honest living. Some days ago ber lawyers at Washington telegraphed her to come on and net the money, us the claim hud been granted. She Immediately repaired lo ibal elly, and on Monday last reiurued to Atlanta, bringing nluety-dve thousand dollars in greenbacks. Mrs. McDaniel has been employed recently In a sewing machine office, on Marietta street, and while lhere made up most of the cos? tumes worn by "Tne Twelfth Night Revellers" on ihe occasion of their recent carnival. FIRE OX SHIP BOARD. A Cargo of Lamber Partially Destroyed. [From the Savannah News.] Yesterday morning about seven o'clock, fire was discovered In the cargo on board ihe nark Queco, tjlng ai Ty nee loaned with lumber and sound for Callao. The discovery was made by ?betlrst mate, In ibo lord part of ihe vessel, who strenuously endeavored to extinguish ihe flames, bul anding it Impossible to do so, uailed lo his assistance the steem-tug Getty. The tire s oread BO rapidly mat the b irk was ecullled und sank to Ihe water's edge. The Getty was pumping water Into the hold of tue vessel during the morning and flnaily succeeded yesterday alternoon in putting me fire out. The steam-lug For? est City has been secured and will pro? ceed io Ty bee this morning and pump her out, when an approximate ol tile damage can be made. Tee origin of the fire Is not known, and lt is difficult to Imagine how lt occurred, as lhere n as no fire anywhere In ihe viciolty ot the vessel when it was discovered. We are [normed that it Is impossible to tell the les until the lumber is taken'out. Tne cargo w*?s furnished by Messrs. F. W. Sims & Co., of this city, and ls partially Insured lu some New York office. It consisted of 601,327 feet ol lumber, valued at $11,030. The Oneco was cleared on Tuesday by Messrs. Brigham, Holsi & Co., and was to have sailed yesterday. Tne Oneca was 782 tons burthen, was built at 'I bomasloo, Maine, in 1861!, and belonged to Boston. _ _ THE PRESIDEXT'S SOUTHERN TOUS WASHINGTON, February 27.

PROFESSOR DONALDSON'S VOYAGE TO EUROPE. An Interview with an Ambitious Aero nant-A Complicated Apparatus Navigating tho Air-To Ireland Seventeen Honrs-All About the Pro? fessor's Great Project. [Correspondence of the New York Sun.] READINQ, Pa., January 23 Your correspondent again caled oo aeronaut, Washington B. Donaldson, jester day, to ascertain bow far he had progressed in the construction ot bis gigantic mr shi the "North America," which is to carry hi either aerees the ocean or to the bottom of during the coming summer. Before sending my name to hl9 quarters, I Inquired ol severa prominent gentlemen of this city about th character ol this daring young aeronaut, and In every case was Informed that he waa exemplary citizen of good character, sober and industrious. Reaching his apart men the whole surroundings were Indicative of the aeronaut. Scattered in prolusion around the room were modeis and Instruments o? various descriptions. Barometers, anchors, baskets bars, books, cords, canvas sails, miniature balloons, gas generators and all the various articles used in his varied experiments and calculation?. "You see," said the aeronaut, "I'm over m ears in this affair; aud ll will claim every m meut ot rn v attention from now ou until July in order tb have things perfectly arranged, have just finished my plans, specifications and sketcties for my snip, and I am absolutely certain that what I am now perfecting w carry me to Europe aa sure as the sun shines to-morrow morning." "What Is this ?"' asked your correspondent pointing to a miniature balloon filled with gas. .'That," said Donaldson, "is a model ol the 'Will o' the Wisp,' my new paper balloon which ls guln_' to carry me. to the clouds as soon as tue w alher moderates sufficiently It ls composed ol common brown paper, and wlil cost me just $6 50 when completed. 11 tend trying an experiment with it when an altitude ol half a mile. I have a patent parachute I wish to lest, and to do this I shall experiment with my paper balloon, by ex piodiog lt when about three thousand feel high, io see whether I can salely descend, shall first ascend, and then I shall open my patent parachute (the model of which looks for all the world like three lamp shades strim on a siring about two leel apart,) see that ls perfect!.* filled, and part company with the paper balloon, after ii ?ving trotted a fuse which will explode In u few seconds alter wards, lo the delight of the peop'e below With my parachute 1 expect io descend to the earth at the rate of a mlle an hour. AN EXPLUIlI O BALLOON bait a mlle high will be a novelty, and a change ol cars, as lt were, at that altitude will also be something new lor the sensational people of this fast age. But this hus nothing to do with crossing the ocean." Donaldson then produced a series ot dla grams and drawings of hi* proposed mammoth air ship. He proposes to have one large bal loon which will have sufficient power io sue cesBlully carry him through the trip. But I be more than safe In the matter he will cai ry with him two other supply or smaller balloon With these he says he can Dil the larger bal loon in case of fi IOSH or escape by leakage or condensing, and when ihey ure empty he pro poses to pack them up, label them, and toss them Into the ocean, which will relieve the ship ol two hundred and filly pounds weigh During the day Ihe fluatlug power ol the gas diminishes at the rate ol about twenty-five pounds per hour; but at night the to-B IS grealer, through condensation. This loss however, ls equaliz-d by exptnMon when day comes again. If li should rain or be u damp disagreeable night lt would add weight to th balloon. Suspended under Ihe large balloon wld be a metallic llteboar. with oars, sails condensed food, waler. Instrument?, barom elem, Ac, ready lor any emergency. Severa marken Improvements wilt be made In the. construction of his boat. Io order to test Ih upper currents he proposes to use a pilol bal loon. The following are the dimensions of the great balloon. It ls to be 89 feet In diameter with a capacity of 268.000 feet ol gas. To con struct it, it will require 2300 square yards of cambric, and will be capaoie ol tilling to the required uliltude 9380 pounds. Tne. weight of thu gas chamber of this mons: rous air ship will be 1532 pounds, whit* the nettings, <fcc will weigu 500 pounds. The two supply bal loons wi-1 be 32 leel in diameter, wtiich will require 374 yards of material, with a capacity ol 28.000 cub.c teet, and a lining power ot 980 pounds. The weight of ihe two supply bat loons, netting*, Ac, will be 280 pound-). A small badoon to eave ga9 as lt expands will weigh 140 pounds, making a grand total ol lilting power of 10.000 pounds; lotal waight lu lull about 4000 pounds, Including rope, lite boat, provisions, Instruments, Ac , Ac, leav lng for passengers and supplies 6000 pounds Tnis outfit will oe Bufllcleni lor A TRIP AROUND THE WORLD, or for a month al least After ihe above re capitulation, Donaldson tal Jr., .'Judging from my trips on land. I travel from twenty lo one hundaed and tiny miles per hour, so to cross the Atlantic from New York to the coast of Irelaud, which is the di rection of the current, distance iwo thousand six hundred miles, it will require to make ihe trip from seventeen boura to two daj s and a half. Bul lo provide for all delays, I shall be cautious and prepare ?or a much longer time say thirty days. I know or two caaes where a single balloon travelled hall the above dis? tance without any previous preparation. I shall take iwo passengers wini me; scientific men, u they can be Induced lo acoompany me There Is much to be discovered in the clouds and published to ibe world, and I know of on thlog so extremely undeveloped as the science of aerial navigation. We shall at no I ale day have regular balloon or uerlal ship lines io Europe, carrying malls, passengers, Ac. My reason for taking BUCH precauilou In Hie preparation of my ship is ts be, ubsolule ly certain of reaching Hie other Bide. I have provided lor every thlog uerouauis or sclent i eic men can suggest, inasmuch as lean not afford to fall. I rh di start from New York when ihe weather Is mild aod we huve moon? light ulghts, and when ihe lower current or air blows from west to easl. In that lower current or Btrula I wili stan., and remalu In lt as long as it blows. It may curry my ship acroBs, but nol In ihe same lime I can cross in the upper current. Ii lt changes I can as? cend lo the upper current and pursue my journey. I shall leave near sundown or aller, which will enable me lo take in gas more in a condensed slate, winch will vasily bene?t me by lu expansion with the comlug of the next dp.y'? sun. To provide lignt at night I have coostiucied a vacuum tuba with piaiiua wire at each end; this connected with an electric battery will fill the lube with a continuous shower oi; electric sparks, which will throw oui sufficient light for reading books, writing or noting the Indications of com pass, direction of wind, indications of barometer. Ac. I shall note down a correct minute in detail ol everything, dividing the lime into periods ol ten minnies." Your correspondent then asked Donaldson what good could result from the irip, even if he were successful. The aeronaut replied: "limy trio ls suc? cessful I can cross ihe ocean at one-tenth ot ihe cost It will require to make the first jour? ney. I will CROSS THK ATLANTIC ON A TRAPEZE BAR, just to show the people lt can be done, and If ihe whales give me an audience, I'll do a lew tricks for them above mid-ocean. Mail mat? ter, freight, and passengers can be carried with facility, and at a cost tar below thai which l< paid at the preBent day. Instead ol seven, eight, or ten days, the Journey can be accombllshed iu two and a had, without the dangers of storm, fire, Ac,, that await those who go down lo ihe Bea In ships. There will be no sea sickness, but In Ils Btead a most de? lightful voyage." In reply to a question as to who would ac? company him, Donaldson smiled, and proceed? ing io his deBk brought forward twenly-ihree letters, received from all patts of the country, principally trum ambitious young men who desire to cross the Atlantic with him. Nearly every letter commences In this way: " Prot. Donaldson-Having read In the Sun thal you are about crossing," Ac. Thirteen came from journaliste ol Boston, New York, Baltimore ? and Philadelphia. Three were from ambitions novells:?, who desired to write books. A YOONG LADY FROM JERSEY CITY offered her services, saying ff ohe cr.uld not be a Joan of Arc she como be the first woman to cross the ocean in a balloon. Pour applicants wanted to go vpry bad. because they ihonght piles of money could be ma*le lecturing aller the trip. The remaining Iwo letters came from putent medicine houses, who desire to negotiate with the professor for some sort or advertising. All of these loiters appear to be wrlnen in earnestness. One correspondent offers five hundred dollars f?r a chance lo go, while another pictures a bright fortune lor both if he san accompany ibe aeronaut across. Among the Journalists are several connected with ihe leading newspapers ol the country, tvery m jil is bringing in letters offerlog the services of ihe wrmers for a passage lo Eu? rope; but as Donaldson does not desire (o ne? gotiate with any one at the present lime other than men of science, correspondents will find I heir letters remaining unanswered. Bis final arrangements are to be completed in New York City, from which point be proposes to starr. Aside from his absolute and determined In? tention of cros-ing the ocean, I find him a gentleman ol reckless daring. He never pos? sessed lear or a consciousness of danger. Look inc over a scrap book Krat contains news? paper clippings, I find thal he baa actually doue more than ihe people are aware ot. At one place, the news article states that Don? aldson aciually hung by his teeth lo the hire trapeze bar when a half mlle high, which shows that ihe witness ot Ibe feat must have been possessed ol remarkable eyesight. Another notice graphically desert'tes him as banging with ono foot io the bar while a mlle high; whllH still another tells ol his falling backward from a sitting posiiion and catching himself by hts loes and hanging there, when over iwo thousand leet above the earl h. Donaldson does not use tobacco in any shape or lorm, nor intoxicating or malt liquors. This, he says, accounts for his nerve and coolness. His ocean trip will ba positively made dur? ing ihe calm monibs of me next summer, aod three people will c institute his crew. The upper or eastern current, he says, was cre? ated for aerial navigation. Tbe existence of a reiurning current', blowing Irom east to west, Donaldson ls positive ol finding. The consiriiction ol the balloons, according to carefully prepared plans uni sp?cifications, will be shortly begun under Donaldson's direct supervision, and li will not be many months belora the great air ship, North America, will start for ihe O d Wuild. It. ls ibe subject of general conversation in ibis section of the Stale. _ _ THE OLD WORLD'S NEWS. Affairs in Spain-The Advance of tho Carlist*-Trouble in Asiatic Unalla, MADRID, February 27.

SINKING OF A STEAMER IN THE SA YANN AH RIVER The Light Draft Steamer Charles S. Hardee and her Cargo a Total Loas Five Men Washed Overboard and Drowned. Savannah, Just at into time, eeems to be passing through an epidemic ol disaster. Her papers have ior a week past been filled with accounts ol disastrous conflagrations with loss of life and serious personal Injury, fulcldes, robberies and cutting affrays, and now, to swell the Hst, we have to add the loss or the steamer Charlea S. Hardee and the drowning ol five of ber crew. The loi lo wing are the facts of the catastrophe: Tho steamer Charles S. Hardee, commanded by Cd piala Miller, left her wharl In havannah on Tuesday night, with a larg* cargo of as? sorted merchandise, lor Hawktnsville and the Intermediate landings; she proceeded down the river about three miles when the dense fog prevented her going any further, and she anchored some distance below Fig Island. The heavy freshet caused a big rise In the river, and the steamer drifted some distance from her anchorage. Thia was not noticed by ihe officers, and in about an hour alter she laid to the fog cleared away, and the com? mand was given to proceed. Anderson New same, a colored pilot of long experience, was at the wheel, and he states that just below Fort JdCkBOD, about a quarter ot a ml e, while making for St. Augustine Creek, the steamer moving at a speed of perhaps five or six miles per hour, struck some unknown obstruction under waier. This snag or wreck was out ot the regular channel, bul the steam er had sheered in shore slightly, Intending to pass the schooner Odd -eilow, anchored be? low. The bow of the Hardee was stove In below the water line by the collision, and, hardly before the offlojrsor crew could realize lt, she had sunk so rapidly ibat the water was rush li g over ihe lower deck. Every one m-ide a grand rush lor the upper decks, as lt was found Impossible lo get out a boat. Io less thun three mluutea irom the lime she struck, ihe HiMee- rested on the bottom. The captain managed to save the books, and the crew a good portion ol clothlug and bedding. Ai Hie steamer settled down In her watery grave, ihe cfflcerj, crew and one passenger gathered on tno up? per deck, which broke away from the "luncheons which held it. It was up? lifted and torn away by ihe pressure ol the water underneath, and to this lact may be au tributed the salvation of those who souzbt reiuge on it. The stampede lo the ur per works was so general, and the foundering ot the steamer so awfully Budden, that Ave men never reached ihe deck and are still missing. They went down with ihn steamer, beyond a donor. Their names are : Peter Dunn, second engineer, white; Wm. Pardu-', watchman, white; Henry Jackson, fireman, colored; Nel? son Frail, oller, colored; Henry Love, deck? hand, colored. The crew and officers num? bered twenty men. of whom all were saved except ihe above. Toe first four men resided In Savannah and the latter In Hawklnsvllie. Neither of me white meu had families, l'ardue being a brother of ihe englneer.Echard Pardue. The latter had a narrow escape. He remained at bis post unill waist deep, and finally reach -d ihe upper deck lu such an exhausted conultlun that he had to he puiied up by those above, ihe upper deck, torn away, d ri l ted down with the tide, bearing Its living freight, and tooled the schooner Odd Fellow, tearing away her anchor, and chain, which were lost. The schooner and deck hung together, and both drilled down tho river ai the mercy of the Dde. Lines were thrown out to the meu on the deck, and they scrambled on board the schooner, widen finally brought up against the crlb-ralelng macnloes at the obstruction, a mlle or more below. Here she was made last, and as soon us possible ihe parlies on board ol her were brought io Savannah. The Har? dee uow iles eollrely under water, only the Btaocneons which held the upper works remaining In Bight. A large amount of ihe cargo drilled away, und the men la thal nelgnborhood were busy picking Itup lu all directions jesterduy. The cargo will, of course, prove a total los*, aa we understand none ot lt was insured. This will fall mostly upon those In whom it was con? signed. Tue agent, air. RiberiErwin, rough? ly eailmated the value ot ihe cargo al $20,000. The Hardee wes owned and run by me Oc mulzee Steamboat Company, made up almusL entirely of Savannah merchants, upon whom her loss falls. She ls valued al $15,000, and ls uninsured. She is seven years old. and was built by Pusey, Jone? ? Co., of Wilmington, Delaware, lor the co ist biiBiuess, la which she has been engaged since her arrival here irom the Norih. Tue boat has been doing a flue busi? ness this season,and, like the Nick King, her loss Is a particularly ai-astrona one Just al Ibis period. It Is ihnught that she can be raised ll the proper efforts are made, and pro? posals are invited for this wurk. The pre? sence ot the large cargo will operate seriously agalnsi the t ffjrls made lo taise her. The loss of lile ls greatly to be regretted. It may be that some ot iheae missing men may have floated away and landed lu the marshes or islands below, though we can readily under? stand how they could have been caught In the trap below when the f.ieamer went down so suddenly. An effirl will be made to recover tne bodies. We are told that no blame at? taches lo the captain or pilots. The ulght was a dark and loggy one, and the slight t beering out ol Ihe malo channel cou d not be avoided. THE DRY GOODS TRADE The Boston Shipping Lisi (22d) notices a decidedly belter leeiiug in the market this week. The Jobbers are receiving liberal or? ders from their travelling salesmen, and though but few buyers have made their ap? pearance here, the spring trade may bc con? sidered as having fairly opened. All kinds ol colton fabrics are moving from first bands at s ii l ?lac io ry prices, and stocks generally are lighter limn usual at this season. On some brands of bleached sheetings'and shirtings there has been un advance, and un several kinds of colored goods there ls an upward tendency. Bul the most noticeable feature in our report Is Ihe reduction ol xc. per y .rd in Cocheco prints, which have for several years psst sustained the reputation of bel?g ihe best prints made In this country, and for that reason have commanded ic. and sometimes lc. per yard more lean otuer brands. Tnls season several ot the print companies have succeeded In Improving their productions, and the light work of the Manchester, Hamil? ton and Spragues ls u decided success. At lija the trade have been able io get ample supplies of these brands, and as the Cocheco was held at 12c, li was somewhat neglected This induced th-? ugeuls ol the latter lo lower t. it-ir price, and now ull are on the same looting, wilh only a alight difference In the abape ol discounts. Tne New York Economist (2Jd) says the colton goods market has undt-igone a change ot the m ist pleasing character to agents and mauulacturers, both in ihe increased move? ment o( goods and the advanced prices on tome tickets and the general firm tone on the whole line ol goods. The movement In bleached gooda has partaken somewhat ol the sp?culative cast, and though there waa really no surplus quantity of fine grades lhere was alike, no occasion tor the step taken as a reac? tion of a comparative quiet is sure to follow the adoption of such measures. The p. ini cloth market shows no special change since our last report, but continues firm at 7jc for cixGl extras and n0 surplus quantities offer? ing fer spot purchases. The market for pi mts was somewhat impaired by Hie action ni (be Cocheco In reducing ibeir price to ll Jc on Thursday and closing their stock lo Messrs H. B. Catlin & Co , who are disiribiuing mein solely Irom Ihe stand, while those Job? bers who have been tqually free binera cl their goods tor distributing purposes were shut out from securing a single case, except nf refused patterns, which MeBsrs. H. B. C. & Co. would not lake. -The Augusta tournament atibe next fair bids falrto be the finest exhibition yet given there. The Edge?eld Club, McDuffle Hussars i and Columbia County Cavalry have been In? vited. The club prize, for tne club makins the greatest number of points, ls s^P'endld frosted silver pitcher, goblet and bow . Ihe Individual prizes are as follows.

Great Sensation In the Hoage-Conside? ration of Ci td lt Mobilier Scandals Rush for the Capital-Unprecedented Jam-Painting Among the Ladles Scene* on Ploor and Gallerias-Ap- [ pearance of the Accused Members Oakes Antea In Taara, ?tc. WASHINGTON, February 25. It lb conceded by all who have witnessed the most exciting scenes in the House of Rep? resentatives for the past ten years that there bas never been an occasion which attracted such an Immense crowd as that of to-day. Even tbe impeachment of Andrew Johnson, exciting as that was, did not "draw" so well. There are doubtless an unusual number of strangers In the city who are attracted bli her by ihe prospect ot the inauguration, lor all the hotels are lull, but it ls unquestionably tne met that ihe proposed expulsion or two such well-known members as Mr. James Brooks and Mr. Oakes Ames bas caused an unusual excitement in all circles and among all clas? ses. Although it was announced In the House yesterday, and the fact was published In the Ballimore and Washlogisn papers, that tbe doors leading to the galleries would not be opened until half-past ten o'clock, ibe House corridors were thronged as early as half-past nine o'clock to such an extent that lt was al? most Impossible to make one's way through the surging mass. THE CRUSH AND ITS EFFECTS. Two-thirds ci this throng were lad'ea, and the crush was so great that eome ot them actually fainted and bud to be carried out. Alter all tbelr pains of early attendance, there? fore, ibey did not bave an opportunity ot wit? nessing the proceedings, ?nen a rush as was made when ibe doors were finally opened is not oiteo witnessed, and In a very lew min? ules every seat was occupied, and still there were hundreds In ibe corridors and passage ways. By ihe time the House was called io order, at ll o'clock, at least one-half of the people in the Bouse wing of the capitol bad not been able lo obum admission. They hung about the lobbies and clamored lor ad? mission, and finally, when the Journal ol yes. terday was about half completed. Mr. Cox. with hU accustomed g -.lianiry, moved thai all ladles who bad tailed to obtain admission lo ibe galleries oe admitted to ibe floor. BEAUTY IN THE BEAR GARDEN. Tbls was adopted, and in a few moments every available space ot ihe floor waa occu? pied. They, occupied the sofas and cha?ralo ihe rear ot the members' seats; they stood upon every loot of flooring, and finally en? croached upon the seats ot the members, so ibat, scattered all over the ball, aod sand? wlcbed between members, were dames and misses In gay attire, forming one of the most brllllaut scenes thar had ever been witnessed on ihe floor ot the H >use. But the crowd was au orderly one, and maintained the greatest good oroer and quiet. Indeed, the presence ol ladies seemed io have an admirable effect, a* the Rouse was not so much of a bear gar? den as lt ls on ordinary occasions. It was suggested In the galleries mat lt would be well to have ladles on ihe floor at all times. A SLIGHT DIVERSION. After Ihe Jouroal had been read. General Butler created a slight diversion ny moving io take up ibe legislative bill. The crowd looked disappointed fearfully lest the motion should prevail, but Judge Poland came to the rescue, aud Insisten upon ibo special order, which was at once proceeded with. Judge Poland opened the debate, first indicating that bu would not call tor the previous question iinill the House indicated its desire io close ihe debate. THE CULPRIT CONGRES Bli EN. In the meantime all the gentlemen implica? ted lu the Cr?ait Mobilier bad come In and taken their places. Mr. Ames occupied his own seat for a lew moment?, but Dually moved io a front sent-that occupied by Mr. Wallace, ot South Carolina. Messrs. Brooks, Dawes, Garlleld, Kelley, Scotield ana Bing? ham were lo their own seats. There was a sligbi contusion lor a lime, while a number of ladles who could not obtain places elsewhere crowded lo ihe iront and took seats on the marble steps leading to ihe speaker's chair. UR. BROOK! AND MR. AXES. Mr. Brooks, pale and apparent ly very feeble, was an attentive listener lo all the discus? sions. He referred to the testimony as aiten tion was directed to lt, and look copious notes, evidently with ibe purpose ot making an elab?rale reply before a vole should be taken. Mr. Ames appeared very much unconcerned while Mr. Poland was speaking, and trequeni ly Indulged in a smile. But he seemed m re serious while his statement was being lead, und at the part making alluslou lo his ser? vices to ibe country, he was seen lo shed tears. This Maternent, lt ls understood, was prepared by General Buller. MR MERRICK closed Ibe debate tor ibe aliernoon, and made a most effect Ive argument, which evidently bad a convloolug effect upon some of the mern-, b rs who were In doubt whether they should or should noi vote for the r?solution ol expul? sion. Tne House then took a recess unlit 7.30, when ll was understood lhat the session would be devoted lo debate omy. Mr. Poland will not call ibe prevluu* quest lon nulli late to-morrow afternoon. So great ls the desire to bear this debate that at least a hundred ladles remained io the House irom 5 until 7.30 o'clock, determlued lo have good seats for the evening session. The Latest. WASHINGTON, February 27. The proceedings ot ibe House to-day were quite sensational. The body met at len o'clock, and discussed tbe expulsion resolu? tions lill past noon. It ihen proceeded to vote on a snbsiliute offered by Sargent, ol I Colorado, by a majority ot tour. Then Sar? gent's resolution, absolutely condemning ibe conduct of Ames and Brooks, was adopted by a vote of five to one. A third resolut ion of Sargent's was io discharge ihe committee and ihtiR end the whole maller. That was defeated by a majority of tweniy, and thus the whole subject was again tbrowu oo them. Spier, of Pennsylvania, offered a resolution censuring the conduct of Kelley, and that was discussed amid great excitement till ibo hour of taning a recess. If Ibat r?solution be adopted, lt will be followed by similar resolutions In re girdto Dawes, Gat field, Bingham aad Seo field. _ THE XEW BANKRUPT BILL. WASHINGTON, February 27. The bankrupt bill recently pissed by Con? gress has been received lo proper form by ine President, and submitted by him In ac? cordance with ibe usual official routine to tbe depart mem of Justice for cureiul exaralna ?

Io ibe meantime Judge Williams is carefully consid? ering the arguments which have been present? ed ihereou before sending lt to the Execu? tive.

Motton and Carpenter Look Horm. WASHINGTON, February 27. Louisiana affairs aro becoming serious. Upon a resolution ol tbe Fusion Legislature io reinstate certain coarta In New Orleans Parish. Governor McEnery called oat tbe mili? tia of the parish. No danger seems to be ap? prehended either bere or there, and up to thia time no Federal action has been taken. It was understood that the MoEnery government should be allowed lo organise, so as to obtain a stains before the court, and not to be Inter? fered with unless lt attempted to seize the State government. It is thought here that the Rubicon has been crossed, and startling ue ws may be expected. In the Senate to-day Carpenter mored that the calendar be laid on the table for the pur? pose of taking up the bill providing for a new election In Louisiana, He said that lt wai, necessary that this should be acted upon to avert the bloodshed, which, according to the morning press, seemed to be Imminent - ia' Louisiana. ** Sherman and If orton also urged Immediate action upon the bill, and it was therefore taken up. Hill offered a substitute embeds lng his views In favor of the choice of a new Legis? lature from the legally elected members of both bodies now claiming lo be the State L?g? islature, and authorizing the new Legislature so formed to count the returns -bf the last election, and deolare who are the legally elected State officers. Carpenter addressed the Senate in support ol ihe bill reported by the majority ot the committee. He said that he had Just re* eel ved a telegram from a trustworthy source, declaring that the people of the country parishes In Lonlalana would never yield obedience io the Kellogg government unless forced to do so by the bayonet. Morton argued against tbe bill, denouncing the McEnery government aa. a mere faction, striving to overthrow the real government. But they were getting into rather deep water. They might now be looked upon as rioters, and were liab'e to be shot. He claimed that' ihe movements of MoEnery were instigated V Irom Washington. Car pent ;r followed with an elaborate speech. He argued that there were bot two' courses to pursue, to acknowledge MoBnery or pass the election bill. Senator Thurman, who represented Ins Democrats, made a speech favoring the re? cognition of McEnery as the only solution. The speeches were upon three points; (1) sustaining Kellogg, (2) upholding McEncry, and (3) ordering a new election, and Indicated that, In the opinion of the orators, a Repub? lican form of government lu Louisiana, tor the moment, had fizzled. The Indications are that the vote will be very dose, and that th? issue will be lorced before the Senate adjourns. JUDGE MACONS. ALLEN. MaconB,. Alien, the newly elected Judge Of the Inferior Court, Is fifty-five years old, and a I "native of the State of Indiana.
