In the meantime the Judiciary Committee will perfect and report a bili, according to she caucus arrange- ment. There seems still to be grect diversity of opinion, even among republicans, on this sub- Ject. Those who participated in the Senate cancus do not appear to be quite agveed as lo what action will be taken, Some of them hold that the Senate caucus is not binding In legislative matiers, but only as regards nominations for officers of the Senate. At ail events, men ike Morton and Sher- man are determined to make a fight in favor of tha passage of some measure for the South. The demo-| crats assert tonight that many republicans whos @ttended the caucus do not intend to pass any Dill, and that a majority of the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee are opposed to reporting any bill.

GuayQuiL, Ecuador, Sonth America, Feb, 12, 187 871. corner and To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— It has come to my knowledge tnat the government of this republic wishes to purchase several small gunboats fer “revenue cutters” at an early day. Feeling that our countrymen can sell them as cheap and as substantial and complete as any European country, laesire to call this opportunity to gene. Tal attention through the columus of your national journal, It would be a good thing in many ways for an American to secure this contract. My advice to shipowners and shipvuiiders is. at once to forward plans and specifications to the President of this re- public at Quito. Let them state their price for one gunboat of small size and add what deduction they will make in case half a dozen are purchased. Put the price as low as possible, for a big market 18 — rapidly opened up here, and the man who gets the frst contract will secure many more before he is done. such a sale would nelp American interests Wonderfully 10 these parts, and even 1 each indl- vidual who offers cannot secure the contract, he can at least show the President of Ecuader what we are doing and can de in the ship making line, and that in all the many kinds of contracts which he is now oe me oerap ty A aa as well a Eng- Jond, France, Germany or "any other man.” i a AN AMERIQAN CITIZEN, , Fifth of THE COAL QUESTION. Union Between the Anthracite ous Minere—Cowbinatio: tected=A General Suspension in Both Re- wioms Anticipated. dJounstown, Pa., March 17, 1871. The committees from the anthracite and bitumt- nous miners, consisting of six from each section, met here to-day, It was generally understood that the bitummous-men would be urged to suspend, and they were fully prepared to adopt any suggestion of the kind; but at the last moment directions were sent frem Siuey and other leaders now at Harrisburg urging the anthracite delegates to endeavor to effect @junciion between the anthracite and bituminous miners. After some discussion a junction-was ef- fected, under the name of the Miners’ and Laborers’ Beneficial Association, and what was known as the Workinginen’s Benevolent Association is now merged into the Miners’ and Laborers’ Beneficial rere paepe and will be conducted by the dollowing ofticers: President—John Wright, of Northumberland county, anthracite region. Vice President—K. J. McCulough, Clayfleld-county, bituminous region. Secretary—W. H. Williams, Luzerne county, an- thracite region. wer—Lemuel Evans, of Bedford county, bituminous region. The delegates express themselves as much pleased with the result of the.mecting. When the organiza- tion shall have ocen perfected and the men all sui. clently trained tuto a better understanding of each other's wants it is possible the suspension will be- come general in botn anthracite and bituminous regions. The Legi-Jative Investigation of the Mincrs’ - Strikes at Harrisburg. HARRISBURG, March 17, 1871. The whitewashers plied their vrashes to-day dex- terousiy, and tricd pretty hara to smatter the miners, The case has lost none of its interest to the general public here, however, and crowds still attend the session, Finding that the evenings were too short, ana under any circumstances the compa- mies were not averse, it was decided to hold sessions all through the day to hurry up the matter a little. The longer it lingers the better it 1s for the com- panies; put the peor miners who are summoned to testify ane, by the magnanimity of the State, foreed to pay their own bills, and something had to be done to make them believe that all the advantages were not in the hands of the railroads, The testimony to-day was called out by Mr. Gowen, who understands the business so thoroughly that he don't dare trust the matter in the hands of counsel. He, within the rest of the railroad men, are making the whole matter a good joke, and haven't the least apprehensiou of is ultimate result. The decided snub Hall gave the chairman of the committee last night warned Gowen that he must be more caution, se he goes on now with the reins in his own hands. His great endeavor is to fasten upon the miners, The charges of murder and conspiracy at first made agamgt them, but amply disproved, To accomplish this he called upon the stend to-day @ collier of Shamaken, wie testiled that his works were run and worked by independents, but that the Workingmen’s Benevolent Association had inter- fered with them and when Wreats did not prevail had a and murdered them. These charges were dealt out by this mild mannered patriarch uite freely, but under the microscopic cross ques- tioning oT Mr. Hall, tne bugaboo stories shrank into mere grandmothers’ tales. Other witnesses, undeterred by the ludicrous ciscomiiture ef this yomancer, indulged m somewhat similar yarns, but found them spun into shreds by Mr. Hall’s Keen points and queries, Tae result at Johnstown come upon the -xall- roaders here like bombshells, as they had expected downright repudiation from the bituminous against the miners. OBITUART. Chief Engineer Andrew Lawton, States Navy. A telegram from Philadelphia reports the death, on yesterday morning, of Chief Engineer Andrew Lawton, of the United States Navy. The deceased officer was a native of Massachusetts, from which State he was appointed to the naval service in June, 1850, as third assistant engineer. He seryed on the coast survey in 1°50, and on board the steamer Water Witch, at tached to the Home Squa¢ron, dur- yng the toliowing year. On the 26th of February, isol, he was promoted to the rank of second assistant engineer, During 1852-3 he served on the frigate Saranac, and in the latter year was com- missioned a first a:sisiant engineer. In 1854-5 Engineer Lawtoa was on coast survey duty, and the three subsequent years were spent with the Kast India Squadron, on board the steam frigate San Ja- cinto, Atthe outbreak of the wer the deceased, who had in 1869 atiamed the rank of chief engineer, Was on special duty in Boston, from which he was United taken and assigned to duty on the steam sloop Hartford, with the West Gulf blockading squadron. He served with credit in the naval operations du: ing 1861, In 1862 he was transferred to shore duty at Taunton, Mass,. in 1563-64 was om special duty at Boston, and in 1865 was at Wilmington, Del. The last sea service of Engineer Lawton was on board the Haruord, Gagship of the Asiatic squadron, rom 1816 to 1868. In 1569 he was ordered to the Phila- delphia Navy Yard, where he remained en duty up to the time of bis death. Engineer Lawton was an able, zeaious oflicer, and his loss to the service will be severely seit. David Peeves. Yesterday David Reeves, well known as promi- nentiy connected with the iron bu@ess fora great number of years, and also as President of the Pho- nix Iron Compa which office le has held stice the Incorporation of the company, died at his rest- dence in Pownisvilie, Pa., aged seventy-nine years, WOSKINGMEN'S UNION, The Workingmen’s Union had a rather stormy se3- sion last evening. The committee appointed at the previous meeting presented a report as to the eigi- bility of the Co-operative Printers to representation in the Union as @ co-operative body, the printers being already represented as a labor association, The committee recommended that no additional re- presentation be given them, and wished that this sbould be establisned asa precedent in relation to all co-operative bodies, Whom they regard as bosses rather than workingmen. Upon the question of adopting the report a long and very stormy discussion ensued, in the course ef which Mr. Young, on benaif of the co-operative printers, es- sayed to address tie meeting. Tue privilege of the floor was not accorded to him. Among the mem- bers there were many who opposed the adoption of the report on the grounds that such action on their part wou!d be accepted as an evidence that they were opposed to the formation of co-operative bodies at any time by members of the associauon, Baring the course of the discussion & good deal of acerbity was displayed by the speakers on both sides—the friends and opponents of the measure sought to be introduced questioning the motives governing each other's opinions. In the midst of the confusion, when the chairman, Mr, Grimn, sought in vain to restore order, he said, “Would it be necessary that he should use the lan- guage of a blackguard im order to get. a hearing? If 60, he would.” ir. Ferguson took the chairman to task fer mak- ing use of such an expression, which he cnaracter- ized as ungentlemanly ana unbecoming the preai- dent of such a body. He asked for an expianation. Mr. Masterson also strongly deprecated the use of such language. Finally, after wasting the whole evening in use- less debate, the meeling was obliged to adjourn witheut coming to any decision. JEFF DAVIS IN ALABAMA, MONTGOMERY, Ala., March 17, 1871. Jefferson Davis is here on business connected with his insurance company. To-night he has been calied upon by an immense number of ladies and gentie- men. In answer to a serenade he returned thanks, ‘but made no allusion to any public matters, WHO MURDERED PRIM? The Niue Preussische Kreutz Zettung of February 25 contains a telegram announcing that the new King of Spain had caused the arrest of Duke Ser- rano, the former Regent of Spain, and makes the following comments :— What reasons the King had for taking tnis step 13 not known. Some people suppose that the arrest of this mighty man was on well grounded suspicions of his buing implicated in the murder of Prim. It 4s Well known that Prim was assassinhted but a very short time betore the King set foot on Spanish soil. Many then said that the king maker had left tne busy scene of iife inthe nick of time for the new King, @ud as the mystery which surrounded the murder of Prim has not yet been solved, the same eople Wil now give out that the King had likewise found out in convenient time how to get rid of the otner king maker by discovering in him one of the accomplices in that murder, This 1s all very fine reasoning, but does not agree with the favorable reports of the hed King's loyalty, aud with the assertions of the English paj , that he was then still in incognito in Mad- rid. The whole business has, however, a very seri- ous look. Was, perhaps, the last attempt to assassi- nate Minister Zorilla only made to get rid of him as one of the witnesses or accomplices The attempt falied, aud now Serrano has, it is alleged, been found out as the murderer of Prim. Has the un- grateiul favorite of Queen Isabella met with his wel-merited doom? For when all the Spaniards Tose against the Queen he, of all men, should never hav ‘o foiod the rebels. The whole affair may be corcemnes as Spanish black cloak and dagger AMUSEMENTS. ACADEMY OF MusIO—SCHOOL Festival.—For the last two nights this building has been devoted to a style of entertainment calculated to please children and their doting parents, Mr. Harley Newcomb, & Bostonian, 18 the “frout and head of this offending,” and certainly he has an eye to effect, to judge from ‘the position in which the tender younglings have been located for the past two nights, A tender- voiced organ welled up last nightamid @ gente storm of juvenile choral singing: and, from the common school er) to the “star Spangled Banner,” the younkers, male and female, did their best to make the experiment a success, Fond papas and mammas said it wasa@ success, which of course they are free to maintain, Our candid opinion 16 that of pleasure in the promise of Mr. Harley New- comb to give the juveniles a rest. NILSSON IN BROOKLYN.—The drenching rain, the evening of the holiday of the Irish saint and the Ichabod criticism of the press all conspired to pre- vent every seat in the Academy of Music being filled last ign at the performance of Handel's oracorio.of ‘Tne Messiah” by Miss Nilsson and the Mendelssohn Union, Tuere was a large attendance, but not an over-crowded house. Miss Nilsson, though evidently suffering from the effect of ihe de- parting influences of a cold, was in excellent voice. In the air “Rejoice greatly” she manifested her ancicnt fire aud sung as well as she has ever sung. The audience plauded = with the old enthusiasm and the Swedish vocalist resumed her seat with the glow of conquest on her brow. Miss Cary—always a favorice with @ Brooklya audience—sang her acne pare Wiih @ superb com- pleteness .nd clearness of expression that lett nothing to be desired, Those who have from the rst put their trast ia the musical greatness and proficiency Of Miss Cary will not be bg, ong ope and may be proud of the confidence with which they bespoke her growing popularity, Miss Pauline Car- sina, the second soprano, sang “Come Unto Me,’ wiih a little tremor, but which she lost alvogether near the close, and was loudly applauded, as she thoroughly deserved to be. Mr. Whitney and Mr, Simpson Were the remaining soloists, and were, ag usual, good. The chorus, under tne direction of Mr. Burton, rendered ail the choruses eifectively and without any hitch, Altogether Brooklyn may be congratulated oa the opportunity presented for hearing this oratorio so weil given.

National Professional Association—The Chame= pionship Question Settled. A convention of delegates from the profes- sional base ball clubs of the country was held at No. 840 Broadway last evening. At the time the call for the convention was sent out its objects were stated to be the settlement of the manner of achieving the title of champion club of the country, and the arrangement of the routes of the club tours during the season, But the action of the amateur clubs in withdrawing from the National Association, im which both prejessional and amateur clubs had been represented, and their organization of an ex- clusive convention, caused the scope ol the Conven- Uon’s duties to be enlarged, and, m the opinion of a majority Of the delegates, made necessary the reorganization of the National Association on a rolessional basis, This idea was lor @ time com- aed by those delegates who did not conceive themselves to be clothed with power further than to carry out the original objects of the Convention, until @ Clause necessitating its approval by their clubs Was appended to the resolution carrying it Into elect, All the deegates. with the exception of Mr. Davidson, secretaty of the Mutual Club, who withdrew fora time fromthe proceedings of the convention because of the “gaboling” of an oftictous director of his club, then yoted for the passage of the resolution, and the convention became known as the “Nailopai Association of Professional Base Bult Players.” A board of officers, consisting of Mr. Kerns, of the Athletics, of Piiladelphta, President; Mr, Evans, of the Forest City, or Cle nd, Vi Prestient; Mr. Young, of the Olympic, of Washington, Secretary, and Mr. J.

The author of this scandal, it seems, is one Dr. Fuller Walker, The worthy Doctor, in his zea! for the public good, or rather, I should imagine, in his desire to benefit himself by being brought before the public asa lecturer and (hus obtain a cheap adver- tusement, has intentionally uttered two little fins, In the first place, 1 never to my knowledge met Miss Western; and in the second place, 1 am not ac- quainted with any last young men. Had this advertiser simply mentioned my name I should probably have paid no” attention to an asser- tion that few would credit; but a3 Miss Western is associated with me in this matter I think it due to that lady to make this denial. I never go into any society, but devote myself en- Urely to my professioual duties. 1 am, yours faithfully, LYDIA THOMFSON, FIRE IN WiLLIAMSBUAS, Narrow Escapes from Suffocrtion, Shortly after nine o’clock last night a fire broke out in the frame building No. 175 Grand street, be- tween Fourth and Fifth streets, Williamsburg, occu- pied respectively by Messrs. W. 8. Thail, dealer in fancy goods, and C Sicardi, manufacturer of hair feo is. ‘Fhe firemen were promptly on hand, and y thelr strenuous exertions the fire was continea to the first floor, where it originated. Mr. Thall’s stock ts damaged to the extent of $4,000, insured for $2,800. Mr, Sicardi’s siock 1s probably damaged to the extent of $150; no insurance. The building, which is owned by a Mrs, Momargue, ts damaged, probably, $1,000; insured. In apartments over the Store a lady, with her four children, narrowly es- caped suffocation. In the basement two children— the elder not over four years—temporaruly left by their parents, were sleeping, uncenscious of the fiery element raging above them, until promptly res- cued by the heroic firemen, EUROPEAN MARKETS.

BOSTON BANKERS, Bank OMicials Arrested for Embezzlement. ‘Boston, March 17, 1871. B. ©. Daniell, late cashier of the Webster National Bank, was arrested yesterday and held in the sum ‘of $10,000 bail, charged with embezzling the funds of that institution. Henry W. Pitman, late teller of the North National Bank, accused of embezzlement, was arrested about the same time and held to answer. Both arrests were made by United States oilicers. THE PLATE IRON TRADE. PHILADELPHIA, March 17, 1871. A meeting of boller plate manufacturers was held to-day at the Continental Hotel, when representa- ves were present from all prominent firms in East- ern Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. It was resolved to advance the price of plate iron of all grades three-eighths of acent per pound. This advance has been forced upon the manufacturers by the recent strike among the miners in Schuyikii county and the consequent increase m the price of pig metal. THE FRESHET SOUTH. Railroad: Communication Interrupted in Mise sissippl and Tennessce. MemMPuis, Tenn., March 17, 1871. ‘Tne damage to railroads by the freshet 1s much greater than reported last night, It will probably be several days yet before trains can go through on any of the roads, as all have suffered severely by the wasting away of trestles, bridges and embank- ments. ‘The tracks in many places are still sub- merged. Two through trains from New Orieans are stauouary between breaks. DEATH OF A POLICE SERGEANT. Sergeant Horace Roberts, of the Sixteenth pre- cinct, died at his residence last night. SHIPPING NEWS.
