The sub-committee of the Senate committee on naval affairs submitted an adverse report on the nomination of J. H. Watmough to be paymaster general of the navy, and the full committee con- curred. Itwas then decided to withhold the ad- verse report and ask the President to withdraw the nomination. Charges against Watmough were filed belore the committee, and, upon inve-tiga- ton, it was decided that there was too much foun- dation for them to recommend him for confirma- tion. The committee will hold a special mecting to-morrow to consider the nomination of Stephen- son for pay director.

OPPOSITION TO A NOMINATION. In the executive session of the Senate-yestet the nomination of Naval Constructor Theodore D. Wilson to be chief of the bureau of construction of the Navy department was reported favorably from. the committee on naval affairs. Considerable Opposition to his confirmation was manifested, on the ground that Commander Wilson's noiination for that position promoted him over other officers who are above him In rank. No action was taken on the nomination. side; but as the indications were now apparent that'the republican members were averse to the change, he (Mr. Brown) would vote against sus- pending the regular business at this time. Mr. McMillan demanded the yeas and nays, when the resolution was defeuted on a pany, vote by a tie—yeas 25, nays 2. President pro tem Davis voted aye with the democrats, and Mr. Brown voted no with the repubilcans.

The only bills considered Were scveral of private interest only. The unfinished business, being the resolntion declaring that the penston arrears law ought not to be repealed, was taken up. Mr. Plumb ‘referred to the arguments upon which the law was vindicated—its abstract jus- tice and the unfairness of a repeal to those who had filed claims. He thought theposition assumed by Senators Vest and Butler one that did tiem honor, as they had been regarded as representing a large class pecullarly hostile to our war pen- Se eas ‘The Norfolk (Va.)
