U. S. SZMATOR_ FROM NEW YORK.--
The Legislative caucus fur 11. S.
Senator was held at Albany, on Se.t
urday evening last, when REunnt E.
FEFrox was nominated on the first
ballot, receiving 52 votes 40 for
Senator MORGAN.
Governor FEsrrox has had much
experience in public life and has al
ways vrved the rople faithfully.—
For ten - years he ably represented his
District in Congress, and was ever
true to loyalty and faithful to free
dom, and as Gtivernor of that great
State for the past four years, he has
evinced executive abilities of the
highest order. Gov. FsFrox's Repub
licanism and t•is abilities cannot be
questioned, and his legislative and
executive expences fit him in a
very eminent degree to fill with hon
or and' with usefulness, to himself, to
his State, and to the country, a.seat
in the Senate of the States.
lissommos.—Hon. Thomas Ewing,
formerly Secretary of the TreasurY
under General Harrison and Secreta
ry of the Interior under General Tay
lor, takes strong grounds against
immediate or sudden resumption of
specie payments. His first proposi
tion is that "we are not bound in
faith or morals to make the :funds
which we pay to the creditor rim his
principal—be it what it may, gold 4f4
legal tender notes—worth more at
We time of payment than it was
worth when borrowed." lie then
argues, against immediate specie re
sumption, on the ground that a gene
ral provision of this kind would prove
a great hardship and injustice to the
debtor class, ruin the "ploduoilig
class," and drive them into bankrupt
cy. The postponmeta of resumption
by law for two years, and then ma
king it alisolEAte, he thinks, would
"produce the same result in a slight
ly mitigatd degree." On this im
portant filiancial question there is a
wide difference of opinion among
statesmen. Some medium ground,
which will wrong no one, will proba
bly be adopted, after all the proposed
plans shall have been submitted and
considered.'
-The Elmira Advertiser, in
speaking of the nomination of Eton.
JOAN Scorr, by , the Republican cau
cue, says : "Save Pennsylvania,there
is no other State in the country which
would have thought of making him a
United States Senator. Yet we are
certified that bele a good man and a
true Republican. The only difficulty
is we barbarians outside don't know
it."
We don't know that the Legislature
of Pennsylvania is to be.governed by
the ignorance of outside "barbarians,"
in selecting a U. S. Senator, Mr. Ad
uertiser. The Legislature of New
York elects Gov. Pastes, whom _ we
have no "difficulty" in knowing as a
"good man and true Republican,"
yet Joss Scorr is the peer of your
new Senator, and will take a promi
nent positron in the Senate.
BUSINESS FAILURES.—Daring the
peat ten days, failures to the extent
of about four millions of dollars have
occurred in New York City, among
jobbing and commission houses in
the dry goods trade. Business in this
line has been very dull for nearly two
years ; it has not paid. The recent
failure of one of the largest dry goods
houses was due .to heavy losses
through customers in the North wes
tern States. There are apprehension
that a few other houses may be forced
to succumb, but the leading dealers
hope by' retrenchment to overcome
present difficulties.

MORE PUBLIC LANDS • WANTED.-
There is a bill now before Congiess
to incorporate the Manias and;Pa
cific railroad, from Little Rock via
Fort Smith to the eastern terminus
of the National Pacific railroad , on
1
the Rio Grande. This bill modestly
asks, in aid of the enterprise, a grant
of twenty alternate nectioni of Oh-,
lic lands per mile, on each side of the
road, and also the issue of Goiern
ment thirty-six per cent. currency
bonds, to the amount of sixteen
thousand dollars per mile, to
cured by a second mortgage on tl
property of the company. If a few
more Pacific railroads are. chartered
with such grants, the public lands
will be exhausted and the Goi,ein
ment credit impaired.
318..50me time ago, Mr. JOSEPH
FELLOWS, of Corning, made a deed in
trust of a vast amount of property in
Steuben County, IN. Y, in Luzerne
County, Pa., to JOHN HEEPALLiii,4 also
of Corning, his nephew: For some
reason,not made public, Mr. FziLows
recently revoked his -deed of trust,
and notified the public through the
newspapers, not to harbor or trust
the said Hzz mews, on his account,
as he should pay no debtie of his
contracting. Mr. HEERIIINS now
comes back with a " •ounter irritant,"
and claims by public notice, publish

property wax "duly conveyed to him
by deed," that he is the owner there
of; and not JOSEPH FELLOWS. There
it a "good time coming" for the law
