MOBTOX DEAD. The Indiana Senator no More. Richmond, Ind., November 1. Sena tor Morton died this evening at 5.30. This announcement, which was not unexpected, will send a thrill through the country, as the news is flashed over the wires. The Indiana Senator, who was the heart and soul of the Repub lican party, is no more, and the gallant old State of Indiana will be no longer misrepresented in the Federal Senate. An inveterate and malignant enemy of the South and her institutions, and a most violent partisan, he has Jseen called to his account. No more will the corridors of the capitol ring with his invective, and poisonous appeals, but, as already foreshadowed, the gift ed, the talented, the accomplished Vooehees, the "tall sycamore of the Wabash," will plead for that rea son, that justice that liberty, which can only comt-from a constitutional ad ministration of this government. Ed. WASHINGTON. PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS. Repeal of Resumption Before the House Efforts at Delay A Series of Adjournments Tilt between Stanley Matthews and Conk ling Confirma tions. Personal Explanation from Sen- ator Ransom Goode, of Vir ginia, as a Supporter of the Hayes Policy. Washington, November 1. Senate. During the morning hour the Vice President appointed Senator Withers, of Virginia, a member of the board of regents of the Smithsonian Institute, in place of Mr Stevenson, of Kentucky, whose term of service expired on the 4th of March last. A number of bills were introduced and referred to the appropriate com mittees. The Senate then, on motion of Mr Sargent, went into executive session, and when the doors were re opened adjourned. Chairman Harris has called a ses sion of the House Elections committee for to-morrow at 10 o'clock. The Privileges and Elections com mittee adjourned to to-morrow on ac count of a premature report of Mor ton's death. The Banking and Currency commit tee directed Mr E wing to report back the bill repealing resumption, and de mand its passage after the House de bate; also, appointed a sub committee, consisting of Messrs Buckner, Eames and Phillips, on the silver bill. They will hold an early meeting to act on the subject of the House resolutions. The Senate confirmed LeDuc, Com missioner of Agriculture. NIGHT DISPATCHES. House The bill to repeal the re sumption act came up before the House, on Ewing's motion to recon sider the vote of yesterday recommit ting, it. The vote was reconsidered, but no further progress was made. The morning expired, after which the consideration of the bill was restricted, the time haviDg been used up in vot ing by yeas and nays, the opposition having resorted to the tactics of delay. There is no possibility under the rules of the House having final action on the bill. It can only be considered in the morning, hour, and the morning hour can always be used up by dilatory mo tions. The only alternatives are to report the bill again and have it re ferred to the committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, which would 8ubject ' it to interminable debate and amendment, or to press it under a "suspension of the rules, and this would require a majority of two thirds. The House adjourned to to-morrow, with the understanding that it will then adjourn to Tuesday, and then, without business, adjourn to Thursday. Senator Withers, of Virginia, , has he'en appointed a member of the board of regents for the Smithsonian Institute, vice ex-Senator Stevenson, of Kentucky. ':The '-'honor was within the -gift of Vice:President Wheeler. Morrison, of Illinois, and Latta, of California, were the only western Democrats who voted against the re peal of the resumption act. t It is thought that Congress, by a concurrent resolution, will take a re jpees to allow the New .York and Penn sylvania members to go home and vote. - : i ' I The Secretary of War, Gen Sherman, Adjutant general lownsena, Quarter Master GenT Meigs, Commissary Gen'l McFeeley and Chief of Ordnance Gen'l Bennett wer ;befor6 the House Ap propriatior s committee to-day advising against a reduction of the army. The bill will probably, provide for twenty three thousand men, with some reduc tions of staff officers. In the executive session today Stan ley Matthews wished to know why the" New York custom house nominations were held in the committee. Senator Conkling said the , affairs of the New York custom thouse were in the bands of capable men, and that there was no urgency The scene was " quite vigo rous and . resulted f n th e defeat, it is iaid, ef Matthews, whose movement amounted to a -demand for an imme diate consideration of the nominations. The result was that the committee will not consider these nominations until next week- .-'- - An injustice was done Senator Rani som in the statement that in anticipa tion of Mr Morton's death he had spo ken for his seat on the floor of the Sen ate.'Ifc is the custom: of Senators to, applj for seats the think may bec.dm,e; vacant and to put 'down ' their , names for the same sometimes two years in CHARLOTTE N. CJ, FRIDAY, N0TEMBER 2 1877 ' - gS--ggggiMSS-asesS-SMBSSiBS-B--e-BS-SS advance. During the last session of tne JBoriy j?ourtn uongress Senator Ransom pleasantly informed Senator Morton that he should apply for his seat, as he expected that the Indiana Senator would be beaten in the next senatorial election. Owing to the ill health of Mr Morton at that time, Senator Ransom, with characteristic delicacy, asked Mr Bassett to reserve the choice of the seat for him, but not to put down his name on the list. Since the unexpected severity of Mr Morton's illness, within the past few days, several other Senators have ap plied for the seat, and as no name was on the list, to prevent any one from securing the seat which Senator Ran som had applied for last winter, his name was put down for the same a few days since without his knowledge or any consultation with him. In consequence of a serious com plaint that the United States Circuit Judge does not hold his court in Mis sissippi, Gen Chalmers has introduced in the Ho use j)f Representatives a res olution of inquiry, to know from the Attorney General the cause of this fail ure in justice. Thearsay8 the Banking and Cur rency committee this morning did not agree upon the silver bill as expected. There was so much wrangling in the committee over the reneal of thA re sumption bill that the entire two hours were consumed in the discussion of that subject. . Some of the western members who have been anxious for the repeal have discovered that the Ewing repeal bill absolutely abolishes free banking. This is really the pur pose of Ewing, who wishes to substi tute greenbacks for the national bank notes, but most of the western Repub lican inflationists are friends to the na tional banking system. It seems pos sible, therefore, at the very outset, that the inflationists Will hfi snlit int.n npna- rate factions over this subject. uonnrmalions Postmasters S Lo ean.

Movement ol the Roumanian Force The Fight at Hassan Kaleh. London, November 1. It appears from a Bucharest teleeram. dated last night, that an effort is being made to gain possession oi tne rievna and Jtta hova roads. The Roumanian force whirh has been stationed between the rivers Vid and Iskra, yesterday, made a recon noisance along the Danube in the direction of Rahova. At Vadeni thev found the Turkish detachment occu pying some earthworks. The Rou manian report states that after a brief cannonade, the Turkish maga zine exploded and the garrison retreat ed in the direction of Rahova. Two companies of Roumanians occupy the redoubt. The Telegraph's correspondent, an eyewitness, telegraphs from Erzeroum : "As the Turks were evacuting Hassan Kaleh, on Tuesday night, the Russians surprised their rear guard, taking two battalions prisoners. The Russian loss is insignificant. The enemy's approach was utterly unexpected. The Turks now occupy a formidable position at Devenboyun." Note. Devenboyun is the last de fensive position east of Erzeroum. FRANCE Ex-President Grant in ParisA Proposed Compromise. Paris, November 1. General Grant attended the opera, where he was well received by the audience, and treated with great ceremony by the officials. M Guyot Montparoux, editor of the Courier Be France, has become insane in consequence of the political excite ment. The Constitutionnel says M Grevy has come to Paris with a strong and sincere wish to effect an honorable compromise between the Republicans and Conservatives. With this object he is not indisposed to see Presideat MacMahon in company with Duke D'Audiffret Pasquier, president of the Senate. - Note. Seeing MacMahon, the Pre sident, probably means favoring a com promise cabinet under M Grevy. 1 Sale of a Railroad, Cincinnati, November 1.
