There are many members who an- nounce their intention to vote for the Bingham amendment or any other measure that will result in ousting Governor Bulock, This, 1 is stated, is partly the result of the recent investigation of the Senate Judiciary Committee and partly owing to the belief that the condition of affairs m that Stare can- not be settled witle Bullock remains Governor.

LUARDS, Play—Largest Record, Some of the finest billiard playing ever witnessed in New York took place on Thursday at Chris. O’Con nor’s, The contestants were Cyrille Dion, of Mon- treal, and Mr. MeKay, of this city, who played two games of French caroms, 100 points up, In the first game McKay’s score stood 100 to Dion's 84, the best ran made by him being 23; but in the second he Mt- erally “mashed hin up,” Dion only having 26 to his credit when McKay rap out, His largest run was 62, made by some splendid play, and bis average for the whole game 20, running out m_ five in- nings, thus:—6, 11, 62, 4, 17%. This is the highest average ever made in a game of 100 points in this country. To beat Dion level is a feat of no small magnitude, but to defeat him so easily 1s something that any amateur may well be proud of. The contest for the champlonsinp and diamond cue is tixed for the 31st inst, Magnificent Avernge on HEAVY SEIZURE OF SMUGGLED CIGARS. Six thousand eight hundred cigars were carly yes- terday morning seized by the Custom House officials on thesteamship Missouri, Captain Edwards, which arrived here from Havana on Thursday last, on the ground of bemg secreted to avoid the payment of the duty imposed on such merchandise, Tue facts connected with this seizure are that on the ontward voyage of the vessel Captain Edwards learned from some of the ship’s company that several thousand cigars were on board by three or four of the crew on the previous home » and were not taken away at the tine because of their being discharged from employment in the line. The captain at once caused diligent search to be made, but was unable to find them. So soon as he reiurned to New York, however, he informed the Custom House officers of the matter, and by the information he was enabled to tmpart their efforts were successful, as above referred to. The speculators in smuggled cigars are decidedly chopfalien in regard to the course pursued by Captain Edwards, but the ends of justice are served and the government protecied. A false report was in circulation also yesterday to the effect that 30,000 cigars had been discovered in the room of Purser Hempstead, of the Missouri. ‘The actual number found in his room was 700, of which amount 500 were the property of a young man on tne veseel, and had been put in the purser’s drawer as “a good place to hide them in,” and without his knowledge of the fact. DEDICATION OF A SYNAGOGUE. A new synagogue for the congregation “Scheareth Israel”? was dedicated yesterday afternoon at 114 Columbia street.
