Chadbonrne, Esq., has been elected to the Senate from the Sixth District, beating his competitor, Hen. M. F. Smith, some 1500 votes. Hou. Gee. E. Bovee, State Seriator elect from this Sixth District, is ex pected to return from Washington in a day or two and take his seat in the Senate. Tie State Senate has selected a Board of Returning OLciers to can vass the returns of the special elec tions which have recently been heldc to fill vacancies in the Senate. Messrs. James Longstreet, John Lynch, L. M. Kemuer, G. Devezan and J. Mradison Wells constitute the Board. Some idea of what is bc;eg done in Califoroia to repair the enormous waste of fo est areas may be gathered from the statement that a s-.gle for estrown in the State has over 50,000 trees of the Encalyptus variety under cvltivation. Whea it is known that, in Australia, this t-ee has often at tained a height of 480 feet, the above aggregate becomes somewhat formi dable. A corespoudent of" the Gen eral Land off5ce, a ~ew years ago, stated that an Encalyptvs in Colorado had, in live yea.s, acqu;red a tS;ckoess of titnk of ifieen inches. At srch a rn e oifrowti;lh the t'eeless ?egion be yond the M:isisippi may soon be ome a wildesess of ve-;etnaioJ. Tie old :'F:asiein Qicsion," the bnugbear of the last two oc t; cc gen elat;ons of European statesmen, has again *ea ed ;.i head. Ihg'ain: po' suant of her policy of erpansion, has finally come in, contact with English power in Asia. She was allowed, without thindrance, to annex the whole area of northern Asiatic deserts, but when she essays to bathe her feet in the warm waters of the Ihdian Ocean she meets a net-work of civi lized interests which has time and again repelled her. It is entirely use less for her to attempt to hlold her own in Asia against the developed force of the Anglo-Iand':an empire. Her resources are vast, but her internal communications are too scanty to per mit their being wielded with success in a folbrward movement. From lhe military pos;tion on the Caspian it will be impossible to throw an army with ireoisite supplies across the deserts of Turkestan sufficient to meet the 150, 4)00 Sepoys and Afghans that England can briing against her. The U. S. Senate Comnmittee on Privileges and Elections imade a pre liminary report in the Louisiana case Mounday last, which was nothing mo e than a general scaming up of the evidence, without recomumcodation for action. The report set forth that, according to tlhecdecisions of the State I Courts, tie Lynch-Longstreet Returo- 1 uing Board was the legal one, while the legal returns were held by the Wharton Board. Acting upon the expressed opinion of thie committee, that " neither the Senate or both houses jointly have the power to can vass the returns of an election and cotnt the votes to determine who have been elected pIresidential electors, but * that the mode and nmaner of choosing I eclectors are left exclusively to the i States, and if by the laws of ite State a they are to be elected by the people,i the metfod of cointing the votes and ascertaining the result can only be regulated b. the laws of the State," 1 the Senate decided to throw out the electoral vote of Louisiana entirely, ( the vote on this question being 3'2 I yeas to 16 nays. A previous propo sition to count the electoral vote folr s Greeley and Browu was defeated by t 19 yeas i;o 35 nays. The Conmmuittee on Privileges and t Electious c'osed its labors, so fr us as the taking of testimony is concerned, c da-y before yesterday, and a report st may be lookedl for ilm a few days. No a satisfactory conlucsion in regard to hI the recommendations of the committee i can be arrived at firom present indi- Ib cations. We have no shadow of doubt I in our own mind that M,'. Pinchblack a and ]ty will be admitted to the Sen- p -te and the Kellogg State Government am thus recogmi:zed ud Illphdl. t OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 6, 1873. EDITOR CIIIEF: The weather is exceedingly mild an4 the snow is melting rapidly. The streets are in a filthy condition. It is rumored that an effort will be made as soon as the Poland Credit Mobilier Committee reports, to send a communication to the Senate, cen suring Senator 'Patterson for his con nection with the Credit Mobilier with a view to influence that body to exp)el him. Thus far there seems no disposi tion on the part of Mr. Patterson to further defend himself in the matter. Mr. James Brooks called to his as sistance to-day in the Credit Mobilier Committee Messrs. Horace F. Clarke, President of U. P. R. IR., Representa tives Beck and Voorhees. By the first he showed that 100 per cent. was not a large profit for constructing a railroad. By the other gentlemen be satisfied the Committee, if the witnes ses were to, be believed, that he, the Hon. James Brooks, had never been before the U. P. R. R. 'Conmmittee in advocacy of any measure direct!y or indirectly in the interest of the R. R. Clarke's opinion of Ames, to-wit: that he (Ames) was an honest and upright man, elecited a great deal of ivtevest, and the friends of Ames consider it a big assistance to him in sustaining his character against those who they claim are heaping calumny upon his head. The Board of Public Works are still in an insolvent condition and the Chronicle is criticisirg severely its 'conduct in the management of affair s. Only a few months since, the IIon. A. B. Shepherd, Vice President of the Board, boasted that there was not a paper in the District that did not en dorse the Board and its management, and when a poor real estate ownec who already had his property untde heavy mortgage caled upon ;dimn am d remonstrated against the immediate payment of exorbitant taxes result ing from extravagance o'" the Board, replied that " if you are not able to hold your property you should sell it to some one who can." Secretary Boutwell has been inter- 1 viewed by several Senators in respect to the striking from the legislative E ih ppopriation bill the discretionary o appropriation of some $Q2,000 for ad- b e ditional compensation to the clerks t! rts, in his department. It has long been a eet the custom to give this money to the I. Secretary to use in the way above in- o Sdicated. When it came up in the n Senate about a week, since it was a Sstrongly opposed by several Senato.:, f( cr among who wans Seoai;or Wiedo. ri who suggested than it was the duty of b ler the Sen~te to insist that all app o- e: priations and disbursements should r r- lbe specific; that the practice of giv- h; e ing to the heads of a deparitment such p let ill discretionary powers was setting a s( bad precedent, and that while his w of confidence in the honesty of .the w opresent Secretary was unshakefi, lihe felt it his duty to oppose it. The if Secretary has been before thie House to Appropriation Committee and insisted t;. on that the loss of this appropriat;ou o e- would increase the 1;abili:y of losin, sr use his best clerks. w je The Bureau of Education is receiv- p ie ing, daily, school book puIlicaiods, pi an specimens of school apparatus and Oi It, furniture from the publishers and de te manufacturers throughout the country st. - to be forwarded to the Vienna Ex- le le position. With the exception of the ot lie expressage to Washington, which is try Ile paid by the senders of this material, Oi (, the Government assumes the re!nain- co th der of the exnense in tlansporting it it n- to Vienna and displaying it. The gov- be id ernmqnt will transport the material ze oe of all kinds in two vessels, the first ini lt of which sails the 20th of March. Gen. Ml ig Eaton has l*en besieged with ap- oil le plications friom parties desiring to be tu te appointed as commissioners to super- lei e, intend our educational display at ph id Vienna, but no one has been appoint- cit >e ed, and it is understood that the ap- be ," pointing power is in the hands of Ge Gen. Van Buren, the U. S. Commis- be sioner. The report of the Bureau of qu a Education for '71 has been entirely lik distributed, so that those who still de- lef )r sire to obtain the report should apply vei y to their meilbers of Congress. roi The vestibule of the North wing of an d the Capitol has presented quitQ a novel pci s spectacle since the placing of the res I, competitive models for the Favtagrt sp, -t statue, on exhibition yestel day, and of o a continuous stream of spectators the o have poured in ever since. The models thi e have been adjusted ia line on a long or - bench, covered with a grayish cloth det t which gives it a respectable appear- idl ance, and they remaiu as they were wai - placed by the hands of the competing con t artists; a few of them occupy separate 'I atools, amnd tower a little above the I eC others but in no instance is the view of one obstructed by another. Eleven o'clock, yesterday, having been fixed by the Committees of Public Build ings and Gronuds for the inspection of the models, the Capitol police hav ing cleared the vestibule, the artists presented'themselves and were admit ted separately, each to explain his model, at the conclusion of which ceremony the police withdrew and the crowd in waiting pressed in. It is thought that the Committee will reflect some days before selecting a model. Dr. Horatio Stone, although having prepared a model for a statue of Farragut eight feet in height at the Navy Yard, has not deposited it in the Capitol with the rest for public inspection. , Carpenter, the painter, it seems, is somehow in luck with his picture of "'Lincoln and his Cabinet" this time. A resolution has been offered and adopted in the House directing the Joi'it Library Committee of Congress to purchase the same; and we are told the artist's price for this-daub, I was going to say, is only $25,000, the price allowed Mr. Powell for his painting repceseuting "Per'y's Victo ry.' That $25,000 is too much for such a pict're as Mr. Powell's is con ceded by every one; yet comnparing this painting wwth Mr. Carpenter's, it at once looms up to a magnificent production of American genius. We are mnstaken :F we attempt to paten t the epizootic by right of origidal discovery. It raged in the British colony of South Af-ica in 1854 and 1855, where it has been known in re curring cycles of twenty years, being traced back as early as 1780. "In this ref'ou the visitations reo far more fatal than our late experience has been. Animaals.apparenIly well in the moriing were found ina."iculo mortis before sunset. The fataliy w.lhs es pecially marled in those ranges in which little or no shelter was provid ed. Among the causes alleged for the disease was the rapid change in the teinpelaiure of the days and nights. The real cause, however, is yet as little known as in the case of our own late epizootic. rct The collision between Russia and ye England depends upon the violation ry of the north fooantier of Afghanistan d- ie fornme'. Eini'land has defined ks this line locating it on a nearly east en and west line through Lake Sir-i-kol. he If Russia cuosses that line in pursuit n- o;ihe, scheme of conquest, England lie will support the Ameer of Afglhanistan, 'as and bring to the rescue her immuense s, folce already organized ip India. HIer railway communications enable her to of bring i.o bear the Ildian Empire to an o- extent which Russia can not mcet ld ruder the necessity of her position, v- having to transport troops and sulip cli plies over thousands of miles of de a serts. Under the circumstances Russia us will stop in her cartcr oiconquest alnd ie wil ugain "bide her time." le Mr. B;outwell will have a good time e if lie follows all the advice that is se tendered him in the management of t 'd the fiscal nTairs of the nation. Every I )u one of our financial wiseacres assume ig such a perfect knowledge of the t whole sbhjcct and such dogmatic f r- positiveness and infallibiliy th that the I s, public ideas are terribly confused. id One wants payments on the public I d debt to go on; another wants them c y stopped One wants the Secretary to I let the money market alone, and an- a ue other wants the Government to con- 1 is trol Wall Street with a strong hand. r I, One wants expansion and another i i- contraction. To cure the absurdity t it it is proposed to constitute an advisory q - boacd of intelligent and virtuous citi- 4 ii zens, remtired from business and not t ,t interested in bank stock, to stand at t i. Mr. Boutwell's elbow and to give him t 4- official and authoritative advice. For- a e tunately Mr. Doutwell carries a pretty level head of his own and manages to it please the vast majority of his fellow citizens by tangible results of a most ri beneficial character. a If The repeal of all usury laws is now P being vigorously pressed in different c, f quarters. It is argued that money, c y like any other commodity, should be IP left fo" regulation to the mutual con- L y venience and necessities of the bor- I rower and lender. This, however, is T f an assumption not verified by any ex- n1 1 perience as yet. Money is in some E e respects only a commodity, but its A t specific character is that of a measure tI 1 of all other commodities. Whether S' 3 the elements which should determine L this questio4s, grew out of the former m or latter character, has, as yet, been w i determined by no specific fiicts. Much idle speculation and debate has been et wasted on the question which now y( comes up for practical settlement. of There is a movement on foot to fo erect and open here, by the middle of Pi next October, the most magnificent opera house south of New York. The Commissioner of Education has received a letter from Dr. Gollandet, SPresident of the Deaf Mute College, dated at Leipsic, Germany, January 14, giving an interesting account of his experience abroad and of his im proved health. He states, also, that he is in favor of calling a convention I of instructors of deaf mutes at Vien na, in connection with the exhibition. This would affo;d an opportunity for a very interesting and useful confer ence. It appears here that the capital and deposits of the banks of Chicago are greater than the bank capital and deposits of St. Louis and Cincinnati combined. This, the Chicago papers parade into a pardonable variety but f it will not bear out the inferences they would draw from it. In individual power the Southern cities will either of them outweigh their late rival, as a Philadelphia outweighs New York. In New York and Chicago, whose special reliance is trade, capital makes any number of unnecessary turns every year. In Philadelphia, Cincin nati and St. Louis, the same amount and movement of capital implies an immensely greater production. During 1872, in New York, eleven million shares of Pacific Mail Steam ship stock changed bands. That is, fifty-five times the whole number of l shares issued by the company were I bought and sold during the year. The I amount represented by these transac tions alone was equal to one-half the national debt. Of Erie Railroad, six million shares were sold; as many of Western Union Telegraph and nearly as ma.y of Chicago an.d Northwestern Railvoad. It is not to be uederstood, however, that these trarsfers all actually took place. In filct a leliable commerc;ai journal declares thatPine teo.',a of them were mere bets upon the lise or full of the stocks. the loser p.y;,'3g the difference between the amount stipulated and the actual value of the stock upon ihe d.y of delvelyv. Tie broke-age oun these tansact;ons a'o.,e amor".ced to about $i0.000,000. What a gigantic ard costly squirrel-wheel movement end i.. in no public benefit whatever. Our coal production in 1870 amnount ed to 32,83i0,690 toes, oi which 28.448, 793 tons were mined in Pennmsylv.nia. Of the latter ang:'egate, !3;650_,;! 5 toms wc'*e anthi aci te and the remainder Iitu!iinons coal. The total v,.'ae of the co;'l product was, $73,524,99f, of which $52,387,S14 belongs to Penn sylvania. It is remarkable Ji.l~i'hile capital in this State nearly reproduces itsel , that of Maryland produces o."yl 10 per cent., that is, 4t lakes" ¶n in vestment of $100 Lo produce $10 n oith of coal in Maryland. The States next in order to Peusylvania are, Ilibiois, 2.1;1,1,:j tons; Ohio, 2,527,285 tons; Maylan l,. 1,819,824 tons. Thoug'u otiher States have larger coal fields than Pennsylvania it will require a great effort and a great change of cir'cunimsa ces to enable them to com pete with her. e The impetus given to commerce by c the great i.'ternational improvement, c te Seez Canal, is e'Jorrmolus especial e ly- in the Ind;a and China trade, 1. Steamers now reach Calcatta f-om c Londo.n ii 30 days and expend 10 per L cent. less coal than formerly. The o multiplication of propellers which - alone are available for the Suez Canal - h:s rendered the transit to the great marts o;Europe aod America astonish r ingly rapid. A vo3age now lasts but three-fourths of the time formerly re quired, which amounts to a saving of 45 per cent. in the stocks of goods in t the mere ocean transit. The multiplica t tion of railroads ha. also expedited i the ma-keting of goods, elfecting anothe: wonderful saving of cost.

Among other unwise and impracti cable schemes suggested for the set tlement of the Louisiana trouble is one for the holding of a new State election. At this season of the year no greater evil could befall us, and we are glad to say the plan seems in all probability likely to be defeated. The excitements of a campaign would take the laborers from their work upon the plantations, and thus strike a blow at the interests of the planters, and, through them, the material pros per'ty of the whole people of the State, that it would take years of industry to recover from. None but political adven turers, who have nothing to lose but every thing to gain, can sincerely desire a new election at this time. THE GEN. R. E.
