mwk Enterprise. ACCOMAC COURT-HOUSE. VA. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14,1SS3: Entered at the Postofliee at Accomac ('. 11., Va.. as second-class mat ter. The query, more frequently pro pen tided in Virginia than any other perhaps, since our late election has been who is to succeed Mahone in ? be Senate of the United States, and ihe answer thereto with rare ex? cel .tious has been, that no one could so adorn the position or serve the State with so distingu? ished ability as the Hon. John \V. Daniel. Everyone recoguizes his fitness for the place. Asa citizen without fear and reproach, states n an, orator, he stands without doubt, the peer, if not the superior of any man in the Commonwealth. The question of fitness and merit, in fact alone being considered, he towers so high above every other aspirant iu the State, that his se Ieeuon as a U. S. Senator would be undisputed, if reward for party services don't enter into the contest. In;;a word.Mr.Barbour alone stands iu his way, because of his skillful management of our party attains in the last two contests. Because of his eminent services and the grand successes he was so instrumental in securing, many claim that he is en? titled to a no less reward than a seat in the U. S. Senate. No one has n higher admiration for Mr. Baibour than we have, could be more grateful to him for his distin? guished services to his State or would more fully reward him; but we believe we are not ungrateful to him and do him no injustice, wheu we say that the place calls for a man of the kind of talent Mr. Dan? iel possesses. The rare gift which is his, as an orator, would enable him to serve us hs no other man could. Through him Virginia would again take the place which she held in ante-bellum days. It is not enough as we believe, to be an efficient worker as Mr. Barbour would be. A Senator commands more respect and is capable of do? ing more for his State when be ex eels in debate, as Mr. Daniel does The names of Webster, Calboun, ('lay and others are so intimately linked with the States they repre? sented that the glory of the one and the other nie inseparable.? ^^vvan^Virjrinia,.-to-be -not.only ^^^WSWjff*^*11 honored in tUesauie way and to that end advocate the promotion of her most eloquent and gifted son. Mr. Baibonr de? serves and should be rewarded but n<>t we protest, if to the detriment of Virginia. Daniel, too. has been second to none in his devotion to Virginia and few if any have la? bored more zealously or efficiently iu her service. As a Senator no <>:.e believes any one could serve her better, and we shall hope that the majority of the members of our Legislature may concur in our opinion and endorse it by their \ utes. One of the outcomes of the late campaign has been the death of the Eichmond Whig. At the suit of a creditor it has been placed in the hands of a receiver. It was the personal organ of the petty boss ?and with him goes in retirement. Whosoever may buy it cannot place it upon a plane more opposed io the honest purpose of honest Virginians than it has been for ten or twelve years.

Governor William E. Cameron and his private secretary, Mr. Browning, went down to Norfolk Sunday on the noon express* The Governor, it is understood, was on battle intent, and so the oyster pirates have a fearful time before them. In Norfolk the Governor was to board the Virginia frigate which looks after the oyster inter? est of the Old Dominion, and pre? serves for Virginia citizens the toothsome bivalves of our own dear waters. In thus proving his devo? tion to the interest of the State, the Governor will have the hearty thanks of all Petersburgers, and it is to be hoped that in the fierce storm of "shot and shell (especially shell, "half-shell") Col. Cameron will be able to hold his own. The Index-Appeal will bulletin the casualties, if any occur.?Peters burg Index Appeal. The Attorney-General has ap? pointed Jas.

A terrible marine disaster, result? ing in the drowning of 4S persons and the loss of one of the most valuable passenger steamers on the lakes, was reported last night when the steamer Arthabasca arrived. On board, of the Arthabasca were Capl. James Moore, commander of the Canadian Pacific Railway steamer Algoma, two passengers and 11 of her crew. They were all that were left of the G2 persons that sailed for this port from Owen Sound on the Algoma last Thursday. The story of the disaster, as rela ted by Capt.Moore,is that the Algo ma passed through the St. Mary's canal, bound for this port, last Fri? day noon. Soon after reaching Lake Superior the wind began to freshen up from the northwest, and a great bank of leaden clouds along the northern horizon denoted the ap preach of heavv weather. Realizing, i however, that the Algoma was one of the strongest and most powerful steamers atio,.t and well able to cope with even a severe gale, Capt. Moore kept her on her course. But as night approached the wind con tinued to increase in violeuce, and by dark had developed into one of the fiercest and most destructive gales ever experienced ou the up per lakes. As the gale increased the sea began to make, and before midnight Lake Superior was lashed into a wilderness of seething foam. While the tempest screeched and howled great seas swept completely over the struggling steamer. The situation was made all the more terrible by a blinding snow storm i that set in before morning. It was impossible to sec the length of the steamer. The passengers and crew were terrified beyond measure, and momentarily expected tosee the steamer plunge to the bottom. By instructions of Capt. Moore the offi cers circulated among the passen gers, trying to allay their fears. They were panic-stricken, however, and huddled together in the cabin, where the screams and prayers of the woman and children could be heard above the thundering of the gale. Saturday morning Isle Royal was sighted, and Capt. Moore headed the steamer for Rock Harbor, where he hoped to gain shelter. The island forms a natural harbor of refuge but near the eutiance there is a dangerous reef, and just as the steamer was nearing the entrance she struck the reel. There was a terrific shock, and then the steam? er came to a lull stop. The passen gers rushed out of the cabin aud be sought the officers to tell them what had happened. "We are in a leef," replied the captain, "but if you will only keep as calm as possi? ble I trust all will be safely landed. Just then one of the crew report? ed that the steamer's bottom had been punctured and that she was filling with water. .---TJie,boats were at once got iu the steamer, but just as they weie about to lower them the steamer slipped off the reefand disappear? ed with au angry roar. The water was covered with the struggling forms of men and wo? men, and then all was over. Only fourteen live to tell the tale. These got into one of the boats, but were powerless to save them? selves, as they were without oils. Capt. Moore, however, wrenched a foot board from the bottom of) the boat, aud with that as a paddle succeeded in working the boat to the island, where the survivors were picked up by the Arthabasca. Disastrous Storms. Selma. Ala., Nov. 9.?Friday night one of the most terrific anil destructive storms ever known in this State passed over the section of country just north of this city, washing away bridges, railroad beds, growing crops, and leveling forests and houses for miles. A cy? clone, accompanied by torrents of rain and appalling electric dis charges, started on Cahaba river, passed through Dallar, Perry and Bibb counties, leavinga dead waste of forests, plantations, houses and villas. Exploring relief parties say the track of the cyclone was half a mile wide. They have gone over forty miles, picking up dead and wounded, aud do not know how much longer the track is. Thir? teen persons have been found killed outright and forty or fifty danger? ously wounded. A number of per sonscannot be accounted for. Bales of cotton were blown from gin houses and bursted and scattered everywhere. No two locks of lint were left together. A man driving with cotton to the city has been lost. The cotton aud wagon were thrown a quarter mile and the man and mules carried off and cannot be found. Crowing crops, potatoes, &c., were torn up from the ground. Even trees and cotton stalks were balked. Relief parties are search? ing for the dead aud dying and ev? erything is being done to relieve the destitution. The negroes are fright? ened nearly to death and huddie about together or squat alone un? clad in brushes and under fallen trees, stupefied and speechless with fear and superstition, unable to tell where any of their household is. Voting: at Long Rnnj-c. "Junge George W. Ward, who is .still confined lo his room from the injuries sustained by being shot down in the street several weeks ago by Dr. White, proved himself a noble patriot on Nov. 3rd inst. His rooms are in the third story of a building on Main street, in Abing t don, and the voting place was near? ly one hundred yards away, on the opposite side of the street. The Judge had himself placed at a win dow in sight of the polls, tied his ballot to a key, to which was attach? ed a string of sufficient length to reach the ballot box. The crier re cognized him, cried his vote, ami the ballot wasdeposited iu the box. This achievement is worthy of ba ing handed down for the emulation of the next generation." There port that Judge Ward has recently had a relapse is incorrect, He has i had no set-back since the shooting, and bis improvement, while slow,is sure.?Lynchburg Advance. State Taxes and Coupons. Mr. Moses Hecht, of Baltimore, but tlie bwnerof projierty in Peters? burg, Va., recently tendered the treasurer of the latter city the amount of State taxes thereon iu coupons. The tender was refused, aud suit was brought in the Hus? tings Court t? establish the gen uineness of the coupons, that the treasurer might be forced to receive them for taxes. The ca* e was brought to trial last Friday, Judge fcnsseft French, of Manchester, presiding in place of Judge Budd. The jury found the coupons to bo genuine, and so rendered their verdict. It is thought that this suit will be followed by others of a similar character in Petersburg. VIRtilXIA NEWS. John S. Barbonr, John W. Dan? iel, Judge Walter It. Staples, Ma? jor Hohnes Conrad and P.

Craig county which cast about 700 votes at the recent election, gave Gen. Lee a majority of over 400. Tho vote of some of the dis tricts furnishes interesting data to those fond of perusing election re? turns. The vote of Marshall's store precinct, 7?, was unanimous for Lee, and McGuire's store precinct also cast its 90 vo "es solidly for Lee, whilst the vote of Walker's store precinct stood 1U5 for Lee aud 4 for Wise.
