Sprciai Dttpatchet to The Evening Telegraph.
Meeting of the Legislature. '
Trenton, N. J., April 3. The New Jersey
Legislature convened last evening, having ad
journed to that time on last Friday. The ex
citing topic was tho voio in the Senate iu regard
to going into Joint session ior tho purpose of
electing a Unitod Stutcs Senator, vice John P.
Stockton, ousted by vote of tlio Senate. The
strange position assumed by Jamcj M. Scovel,
of Camden county, President of the New Jersey
Senate, has crealed the most intense excitement
throughout the State, and, as a consequence, the
prominent men of all patties and sectionsjliave
congregated in the Capital to walch proceed
ings. The Republicans are bitter in their de
nunciation of Scovel, and arc laboring earnestly
to bring about an election at tho earliest pos
sible moment. Scovel holds the deciding vole,
and knowing his power, is disposed to use
it to his own advantage. He stands in the
anomalous position of having the ability
to delay action without having a party
at his back. He was originally a Demo
crat, but for the past lour years has
professed to be an intense raiicil. The
Democracy cannot trust him because he has
deserted their ranks, and the Republicans are
outraged because he hinders the diction of a
Senator at a moment when he is most needed.
Thus Scovel is tho target of two Gres, and which
ever party wins he is politically ruined. Tnat
he teels the delicacy of his po-iton is painfully
evident. He makes an ineffectual etlbrt to ap
pear composed, but his nervous agitation is evi
dent to every ono who knows him. His personal
appearance is a tacit acknowledgment of the
troubles ot his brain. There can be but little
doubt that his vaulting ambition looked to a
seat in the United States Senate for himself, and
that all his protestations in favor of au unquali
fied radical were simply buncombe. Yesterday
afternoon was devoted to caucussing and com
paring notes, and as each party act with extreme
caution, it is Impossible to discover tho plans of
either. From the most reliublo information that
we can obtain, we are inclined to think
that the Democrats will vote solidly
tor Stockton, while the Republican party havo
several names before them from which to chose.
At the present moment, A. G. Cattell, of Cam
den, is the most prominent candidate, aud if a
vote should be taken immediately, would, in all
probability, be elected. What turn affairs may
take to-day, it is impossible to conjecture.
There is au intiuite qunutity of wire-pulling
going on, and the result depends very much
upon the shrewdness of the operators. The
result, however, is inevitable. The Republicaus
have a clear majority of thirteen on 1oint bal
lot exclusive of Scovel's vote and the elec
tion of a Republican is certain. The two bodies
held a session last night, but nothing but gene'
ral business was transacted. The all-absorbing
subject the Senatorial question wa not
touched. It is thought that the question will be
brought belore the Senate to-day, and the ex
citement is hourly increasing. Upon the action
ot the New Jersey Legislature most important
consequences hinge, and the whole country feels
a deep interest in tne action of the body.

SECOND DESPATCH.
Cnncuseins Last Nigbt.
Trenton, N. J., April 3. The political cal
dron is still seething. Last night was occu
pied by meetings of committees and caucus3es.
Tlio Democrats feci hopelessness of their cause,
and set m disposed to end the contest by goiiug
into joint session.
Poor Scovel.
Harlequin Scovel is without personal influ
ence, his position giving him tho only advan
tage. Tlie Republicans are united in a deter
mination not to submit to Scovel's dictation.
Mr. Cotteirs Chances.
Tho friends of Hon. A. Q. Cattell are sanguino,
and believe if a vote is taken to-day he will bo
triumphantly elected. There have Veil lurtre
arrivals of prominent politicians during last
night. The question of a Joint Convention will
probably be brought before the Senate to-day.
Both parties arc watching each other narrowly
fur the purpose of discovering plans. J. M. G.
TnniD despatch.
Joint Convention Explanation from Mr.
Scovel.
Trenton, April 3. Mr. Ludlow, of Cumber
land, culled up the resolution to go into joint
session, when Mr. Scovel took occasion to ad
dress the Senate upon his position in regard to
this matter. Ho was still oppose 1 to the resolu
tion, and would lemain in opposition until a
candidate satisfactory to the Republican party
was selectett by the caucus. Ho referred par
ticularly to the attacks of the Trenton QazetU'.
That Letter from Andrew Johnson.
He explained that his visit to Washington,
about which so much had been said, was for the
purpose of consulting the Chairman of the Judi
ciary Committee of the United States Senate,
lie read a letter from Robert B. Leeds, of Atlan
tic City, denying that he (Scovol) had ever ex
hibited a letter from President Johnson In re
gard to the Senatorial question, as charged
against him in Thb Evening Telegraph, ne
pointed to his rocord in tho Assembly and
Senate as the proof of his soundness as a Repub
lican. He denounced the meeting held at Caul
den on Saturday night, terming it a 8tar Cham
ber proceeding.
He felt that he had discharged bis whole duty,
and would return to private life, when his term
. i
o office expired In that belief. lie felt as stong
in his position as the roc If of Gibraltar.
Personal Attacks npon Cattelh
In the course of his speech he made a number
of personal allusions to Mr. Cattell and his past
history. He announced that he could not bend
to the yoke of.party, forced npon him, without
a feeling of dishonor, (nisses in the lobby.) He
closed by saying, that If he went down in this
struggle it would be like the Cumberland, with
the flag flying.
End of To-day's Farce.
The motion to go into Joint Convention was
lost by a vote of ten to n,ine. Another Tuotlon
to go into olnt seHon at 3 o'clock P. M. to-day
was lost ten to nine.
FOURTH PESPATCH.l
The Other Side Mr. Scovel Unselfish.
Trbston, April 3. Soon after the meeting of
the Senate this morning, the question of a joint
session for the election of a United States
Senator came up. Mr. Scovel insisted ou his
original position, and declared himself not 'a
candidate, but ready to suppoit any of tho he
had named. He urged instant apiion, aud
denied auy decilro to dictate a policy to any
body. He exhibited deep fee'iing, and was lis
tcned to with profound attention, the gallevi' s
au d lobbies being crowded.
That Letter.
He read a letter from Mr. Leeds of Atlantic
City, who, in said lciter, deuicd ever givi.iy any
informaiion as stated in Tub Evening! Tele
graph, relative to a letter or letters from Presi
dent Johnson. The motion for a joint-meeting
was lot t, but it is thought a compromise will be
effected to-day. T.
FIFTH PESr-ATCn.
The Senate Adjourned The Feeling, Etc.
Teenton, April 312 M. The Seuate has
adjourned until 3 P. M. Both parties are iu
council maturing their schemes. Scovel's de
termination to remain contumacious causes
great indignation. His attack noon Mr. Cattell
is being loudly condemned. Tho general be.
lief is that tho election of Senator will be de
layed for several days. Two Senators are ab
sent. J. M. G.
BY THE ASSOCIATED PKSS.
Tlie New Jersey Legislature.
Trenton, April 3. This morning the resolu
tion came up to go into joint meeting.
Senator Scovel addressed the Senate at length,
declaring that ho could not surrender his posi
tion without dishonor, aud would adhere to it
to the end.
The vote was teken and the resolution was
lost. The vote in favor of going into Conven
tion was 10, and agaiust it 9; two Senators being
absent who would have voted against the reso
lution. (Note. By a previous resolution of
the Senate a majority of the whole number of
votes is necessary to go into a Joint Convention.)
There were hisses in the lobby and consider
able excitement wn tho announcement of this
result.
Mr. Scovel's speech was particularly severe
upon Mr. Cattell and Mr. Robeson, of Camden,
denouncing them an having flourished and
erown rich on the sull'eriugs of tho people in the
recent civil wur.
He ottered to vote for any mau who, enter
tained the same views he did. He was not
urging his own election. Ho did not want the
position, but he never would submit to tne dic
tation of any party clique,
THE STRUGGLE IN CONNECTICUT.
Flection of Gencrnl Hawley Governor
TrlunipU of the Radical KopubllcauN,
Etc. Etc.
From the Xew York Tribune, Editorial, of this
morning.
All last evening our despatches and returns
irom sundry quarters, and our abseuco of advices
lrom others, combined to give Connecticut to
the adversary by about 1U00 majority. The hor
rible majority rolled up for English in New
Haven the largo ditto concocted in Hartford
the reported results in Banbury, Litchlield, New
London, Stoniugton, ot?. a'll conspire' to
render the election of General Ha wley morally
impossible.
Bui some of theso reports were mistaken or
exasperated; while the familiar fact that tho
towns wherein signal changes have been made
are first heurd from, leaving thoso which have
gone as usual to jog ulong more slowly, has
received a new Illustration; so that it now (U
A.M.) looks as though General Hawley li-nl
been elected by a small majoritv; and such is
the tenor of our latest despatches. Still, tho
vote is so close that a different result is possible;
the majority not being over 600 either way in a
poll of fully 90,000.
As to the' rest of the Republican ticket, we
see no reason to doubt that every man is
elected, while wo are sure that the Legislature
is strongly riuht in both branches, insuring the
leturu ot the Hon. Latayetio S. Foster, or an
other of like taith aud works, to the United
States Senuic for six years lrom the 4th of March
next.
This victory has been won against a combina
tion of adverse influences sucu as cannot occur
twice iu twenty years. Mr. English was a very
popular candidate; the outside otlioial influences
told heavily against General Hawley; but the
main discouragement was that fatal, tienelierous
failure ot the Republicans of Connecticut to
place their State squarely ou the platform of
eitial rights and impartial freedom iu tho sut;
Inure election last September. It was the six
thousand majority then given for the Jell'. Davis
and Jack Rogers' notion ot a "white man's Gov
ernment" that so uearly weighed us down yes
lerday. Let us trust that we have had the last
of that culpable folly.

Trlbnte to Military Men.

ami Colouel Theodore S. Bowers, lately his Ad
jutiint-Gencral, pays an cloqueut tribute to

that all officers of thp Adjutant-General's De
partmeut wear the usual badge of motiruing for

Tii civil it i it tit mil.
Owing to the absence of so many Senators
yesterday, it was considered best to postpone
the discussion on the Civil Rights bill until
Wednesday; and the vota will be takeu on
Thursday aluirnoon. Senator Wright arrived
here to-night, to tho astonishment of every one.
He is suffering from a gathering of water on
the heart, and is somewhat easier to-day, though
liable to die at any time. He came, against the
adviie of his physician, aud at the earnest
solicitation of his political friends, who have
concluded to make ono uior?grand rally to try and
sustain tho veto. Should Wright be able to go to
the Senate when tho voto la fallen, and Dixon re
cover sufficiently by Thursday to be carrie l to the
Senate, they can poll 10 votes, requiring 32 to
carry the bill. Of this number, including the
sue'eescor of Senator Foot, who will undoubtedly
be here in time, the radicals cau rely on 33. If
thotf get a Senator from New Jersey, which is
not now probable, the vote will stand 34 to 10.
Should the President get one more man, it can
not be carried until Colorado is admitted, which
makes it 34 or 35 to 17. The President's friends
claim Senator Lane, Of Kansas, but as he voted
agaiust sustaining the veto of the Frecdman's
Bureau bill, and as he has several times declared
he would not change his vote on the Civil Rights
bill, it Is not deemed probable he will stultify
himself by voting with the Democrats. But a
few days make so many changes that one can
hardly tell what will bo the prospect by the time
the vote is taken. All present indications are
for the passage of the bill over the veto.

The present movements of foreign com
merce show a balance ot exchanges iu our
favor, and account tor the almost total ccsa-
tion of the shipments of speciu. Although th e
exports are confined in an unusual extent to
cotton, there being at the ports ,no important
surplus ot Northern produco for exportation,
yet the shipment of that staple are more than
sutlicient to make up the deficiency ot other
commodities. By a collection of the latest
details of the exports of cotton at Southern
ports, the New York Commercial Advertiser is
enabled to present th" following comparison of
exports and imports tor four weeks of March:
Total exports lrom New York for four
