The word attempt isused boonuso Corpontor's spocch to-day was unworthy of what are gonerally concoded to bo his abilitics, It wos o moro attack on Mr. Morton of tho most porsonal character, coupled with tho effort to justify the wuse of monoy at cleotions, A voto might have been roached beforo the adjournment, but for tho interposition of Logan, who dosired to submit a fow romarks in behalf of Caldwoll. “Thosq who have cane vassed tho Senato are of theflrm opinion that Morton's resolution will provail, aud that Cald- well will bo expolled tho Sonate. It is tho opinion of your corrospondont, however, that Morton will bo abandoned byhis party asso- cintos, andthat, when tho voto comes to bo taken to-morrow, Caldwoll will escape expulsion by a majority of about 10 votes. Camoron has been lobbying in his-intorost to-day with somothingot his old timo onergy, while other, and perhaps strongor, influencos have boen sot to work to ac- complish Caldwell's acquittal, COMPTROLLER KNOX—TILE BAVINGS DANKS, There is & rumor out to-night that tho romoval of Comptroller Knox will shortly bo attompted, ‘bocauso of the xegurl of this oftloinl condemniny tho practices of ‘tho various savings banks a‘i this city.
