The New Jersey 11. :'Senatorship.
[Special Despatch to the Salient.)
TRENTON, N. J„ April 3,—Soon after the
meeting of the Senate this morning, the
question of a joint session for au
election of United States Senator
came up. Mr. Scovel :insisted on his origi
nal position. He declared himself not a
candidate, but ready to support any of those
he had named. He urged instant action,
and denied any desire to dictate to any
body. He read a letter from Mr. Leeds, of
Atlantic City, who, in the said letter, de
nied ever giving any information as stated
in the Evening Telegraph, relative to letters
from President Johnson.
The motion for a joint meeting was lost,
but it is thought a compromise will be ef
fected to-day.
[Correspondence of the Associated Press.]
TRENTON, Arlin 3d.—This morning the
- resolution came up to go into joint meeting.
Senator Scovel addressed the Senate at
length declaring that he could not surren
der bis position without dishonor and
would adhere to it to the end.
The vote was taken and the resolution
was lost. The vote in favor of going into
Convention was 10, and against it 9—two
Senators being absent who' would have
voted against the resolution. [NOTE.—By a
previous resolution of the Senate a majority
of the whole number of votes is necessary to
go into joint convention.
There were hisses in the lobby and con
siderable excitement on the announcement
of this result.
Mr. Scovel's speech was particularly se
vere upon Mr. Cattell and Mr. Robeson, of
Camden, denouncing them as having flour
ished and grown rich on the suffering of the
people in the recent civil war.
He offered to vote for any man who enter
tained the views he did. He was not urging
his own election. He did not want the posi
tion; but he'never would submit to the
dictation of any party clique.

CITY BULLETIN.
AN ALIBI PRpVED.—At the time of the
murder of James Needs, the colored porter,
at White's Dental Depot, in October last, it
was intimated that a young man named
John Moran, who, it was supposed, went to
Boston. was implicated in the murder. The
following letter received.by Chief Ruggles
proves that said Moran was not in this city
at that time :
CITY MARSHAL'S OFFICE, CITY OF Rox-
M7RY, March 31st, 1866.—Dear Sir: A re
port is in circulation here and in Boston
regarding a case of garroting and robbing
in your city, which was committed in Octo
ber laat,charging the crime on a young man
named John Moran, who is in custody here
and waiting the action of the Grand Jury
on the fourth Monday of April next, for
the murder of a girl named klearny, on the
19th ult.,in this city.
"In order to learn if there was any foun
dation for the report connecting Moran with
the crime alluded to in your city, I have
traced his whereabouts for the last nine
months,
and am satisfied that during- such
time he has not been Out of this State.
"From July sth, 1865, till March 17th,
1866, he has been constantly in a machine
shop, and the officers are in possession of
other facts connected with him, which will
show his being here early in June, 1865,
which will probably be brought out at his
trial before the Supreme Court.
" I write yon for the purpose of clearing
up any suspicion that might be in the minds
of the officers, in your city, regarding Moran
as being guilty of the crime alluded to in
October last, thereby throwing them off the
track of the real criminals engaged in the
felony.
" Respectfully, Yours,
" ISAAC S. BURRELL, City Marshal."
"To the Chief of Police, Philadelphia."
BOGUS DETECTIVE.—A man, who gave
the name of William Chambers, was ar
rested last evening by the Third District

in his possession a revolver and pair of
handcuffs. He made a statement to the ef
fect Oat he was engaged in the business of
detecting deserters,
i and that he was em

Second and Chestnut streets. His story was
by no means a satisfactory one, and Ald.
Tittermary committed him to prison.
ARRESTED ON SUSPICION.—Last evening,
a man named Randolph Johnson, was ar
rested at Sixth and South street, as a sus
picions character. He was prowling about
the neighborhood, and had on his person,

give a satisfactory account of himself he
was committed by Alderman Tittermary.
NATIONAL UNION CLun.—The glorious
Union victory in Connecticut was received

SWINDLING A SMALL BOY.--JUlia, Carpen
ter keeps a sort of snake show on Market
street near Thirtieth, and employs therein a
man named Charles Berach, whose voca
tion it is to play at certain games on whi
he tries to get bets and fleece
Yesterday afternoon a small boy, about
twelve or fourteen years of age, was enticed
into the show, and having a sum of money
in his osession which belonged to his
father, he was persuaded to bet on one
of the swindling games attached to the es
tablishment
He was soon cheated out of $5, and was
then taken in hand by the proprietors of the
the concern, who induced him to purchase
some bogus jewelry, dtc.; altogether he was
swindled out of $B.
The father of the boy, being informed of
the occurrence, had Busch arrested, and
subsequently Julia, the show woman.
The woman was committed to prison, and
the exhibition came to a sudden close.
