They left to-night for home, and as they marched aiong the streets theyreceiv ed quite an ovation of cheers, rockets, &c, their fine band in the "meantime playing 'In the Sweet Bye and Bye ' ana '.Carry me uacR to Uid Virginia.'

An automatic signal buoy has been placed off Cape Hatteras in twelve fathoms of water. All flags are half masted on account of Morton's death, which excites re gret from his opponents and deep grief Irom his personal mends, among whom were many of his most hearty political enemies. Senator Ben Hill, of Georgia, in hope of the exit of Conkling, has filed an application for his chair in the Senate chamber, House The bill tok repeal the re sumption act came up again in the morning hour, and Ewing, of Ohio, (who has charge of it) withdrew the motion to recommit, accepted Fort's bill as a substitute, and moved the pre yious question. Hale, of Maine, moved to lay the bill on the table r The motion wss defeated by 108 to 140.1- The morning hour expired and the bill went over. Several motions to adjourn over were made and defeated. The House adjourned till to-morrow in respect to the late Senator Morton, and a committee of seven was appoint ed to; attend his funeral. The following are the cbmmittee of seven appointed by Speaker Randall to attend Senator Morton's funeral: Hanna and Cobbof Indiana, Wilson, of West Virginia, Burchard, of Illinois, Day idson, ' of Florida, Banks, of Mas sachusetts, - and Townsend, of New Xork. - The committee of Ways and Means paid 'the usual visit to the President And the Secretary of War. The com mittee On Foreign Relations organized and considered the representation at the French Exposition. The army bili provides that cavalry feginjents may be recruited and kept up ta-lOO ineo to the company for ser vice on the' Mexican frontier, provided this does not increase the total force of the.arrny.' The bill is on a basis of 22,00Q men, rank and file. The clause of the -bill forbidding the use of the army for political purposes was , omitvi ted as unn'cegsary, and estimates of the War, Office were reduced by five millions, h - Robbery of a Stage. ,"Cheyenne, ;Wy. wT'y,. .Nov 2LThe coach which ; left Dead wood Tuesday morning, coming south, was stopped and robbed, within three ; miles of the port, by two armed men.

THE WAU Mehemet Alt Gone to Saloniea r The Situation of Affairs Abont Bogot and the Battle Fought '-"r; There. ' Review, of the Asiatic Campaign London, November 2. The Times' Vienna correspondent telegraphs as follows ; "Mehemet AH Pasha hasar. rived at Salonica en route for his Her zegoyinian command. He will estab lish his headquarters at Novaibaisar, which is convenient for operating either against. Montenegro or Servia. Militia from Constantinople are to be sent to reinforce him.'' 'A special dispatch from Bogot, about eight miles ' south of Plevna, to the Times? has the following : "The Czar arrived here on" the 27th of October. Grand Duke Nicholas has bis head quarters here. ' General Todleben is at Tuckentza with' his staff. The Prince of Rou mania's headquarters' are at Poredin. The attack on Telische simultaneously with, the capture of Dubnikon on the 24th ult., was repuls ed with the loss.of a' thousand men. The loss at Dubhikori was three thou sand men. - Every brigade and regi mental commander was killed or wounded, and as nearly all the officers of the guards are personally known at headquarters,1 the fact that two hun dred officers have been placed hors du combat has cast a deep gloom over the m embers of the staff at Bogot." The bombardment of Plevna con tinues in a desultory way. A special dispatch from Shumla to the Daily Telegraph, says : "Silistria is threatened with investment, but is ex ceedingly strong in its defence, and fully armed. TThe garrison is in ad mirable condition and is commanded by Selim Pasha, one of the ablest Turkish Generals." London, November 2. Apropos of the Constantinople telegram saying that Moukhta Pasha's position is criti cal, the following are extracts from a review of the Asiatic campaign in yes terday's Times from the pen of Capt Norman, lately a correspondent with Moukhtar's army and expelled by the Turks for unfriendly criticisms: "The Deve-Bo'yun, the crest of a range 20,00 feet higher than the surrounding plain, presents every facility for a most determined resistance. If Ghazi Moukhtar can reach this in safety and throw 25,000 men into the very formid able works that are under the able direction of his gallant Hungarian chief of-staff, Gen Eahlmann, which have been recently constructed, Deve Boyun should defy a frontal attack, and at this season, a flank movement over the mountains eight thousand to nine thousand feet above the sea presents almost insurmountable diffi culties as to. a flank movement from Olti and Pennek. It may be checked by the troops from Pennek und Hassan Bey, who will occupy the works at Guirji Boghsz, a pass where three roads from Pennek to Erzeroum con verge. Erzeroum is not a yery formid able fortress, but under the able direc tion of General Eahlrnann the enciente has been repaired, the parapets consid erably strengthened, magazines placed under the ramparts, the detached forts fully provisioned, arrangements made to insure an adequate supply of water, and more than one hundred Krupp guns, varying from 15 to 20 centime tres in calibre, mounted on the walls. The city, however, is very unhealthy, typhus feyer having been rife all the summer, and, moreover, it is very in adequately provided as far as the civ ilian element is concerned, all stores having been Seized by the government for the use of the troops." Referring to tbe reports from St Petersburg of negotiations for the sur render of Kars, Captain Norman says : " I cannot credit the rumor that the commandant has entered into nego tiations for the surrender of that fort ress. I am aware from personalobserva tion that very large supplies ofammu nition, for both small arms and artil lery, were thrown into the place during July, August and September, and that tbe commissariat store houses were completely replenished. It was dan gerously denuded of troops during the occupation of the Aladja Dagh. If Moukhtar Paf$a was enabled, subse quent to his dgeat on the 14th of Oc tober, to leave a garrison of the same strength as he did in April, there should be no fear for its safety. If, however, he was unable to do so, it is more than probable it will fall by a coup de main, but it will not be starved into submission. Note. The garrison in April con sisted of 29 battalions, numbering less than 500 men each. Tbe Daily News correspondent with the Russian army before Ears says the garrison now numbers 10,000 men J THE WEATHER. Heavy Gafe in Hew York. New York, November 2. At noon to-day the wind was blowing from east ward uncommonly high. Pedestrians on the streets are scarcely able to make headway against it. Not a sail of any description can be seen on either North or East rivers, or the bay, the small craft of every description h aving sought shelter. The force of the wind is at tested by the fact that ferry; boats were at time scarcely able to move against it. The wind is expected to be unusu ally severe to-day and to-night on the North Atlantic coast, . AWAKING FROM A DRE i M. The Return of ex-Mayor Oakey Hall to,New York., New York, November 2.

The Times' Paris correspondent announces u that Duke De Cases handed in his resigna tion several days ago: His retirement may already be considered an' accom plished fact, as be will quit his official residence within ao hour after its1 pub-, lie announcement. ' - ' f " fr Paris, November 2.-Victor ;Hugo's organ, the Rappet, says': - '"Many Re publican Senators , and Deputies have arrived. Although no form a! m eetings have yet been held,' there have been frequent - consultations between them. From these some general ; de ductions may "be made concerning the intentions of the Republicans, and the course of evente-iAft'itrtaltfl:-tent, be predicted ' There have been no negotiations or overtures for a com? promise with the men , of ' the 16th of May. No member of the Left has been approached with this object byJ any representative niore or, less direct of the Elysee' "In a conversation; be tween the members of the 'Republican party, various contingencies have been discussed, although of 'coarse no tesQ" lution has'yet been taken. In' 'the event of ; Marshal MacMahon's retire ment from, the Presidency, M Greyy7s candidacy will be Tinanimousiy; sup ported. M Grevy has allowed it' to be understood that he would n6t' shrink from any duty or respdnsibility in the interest of the Republican cause. Should the Marshal retain his post with a Republican ministry, the unanimous opinion prevails that. ' rnOre , effective guarantees must be required than . in the ease of previous' ministries. . s The members of the committees of the Left in the late chamber will meet on Mon day to resolve upon the course, of the party.

Three stock operators from New York, named Jno Leighton, C H Bernard and Wm J Potter, were arrested here, yesterday, charged with conspiracy, on the com plaint of Henry S Tibby, in obtaining from Tibby large sums of money by misrepresentation and by forming a pool of the stock of the Exchequer Mining Conipany. In default of $30, 000 bail each they were locked up. ' Chicago Failures. Chicago, November 2.

Geo F Batcheldor, commission mer chant, has failed; liabilities $47,000; assets small. The Dulj of Woman. To be attractive is a duty which every lady owes to herself, to her domestic circle, and to society. Not only shonld she endeavor to please in address aiid in apparel, bat, whenever possible, in complexion ana in feature as well. Facial embellishment is to a lady as proper, and oftentimes as neces sary, as are the adornments of her raiment, the artificial graces of her conversation, of her demeanor, or other meretricious attrac tions upon which depend so much of her dominion and influence over man. Tbe woman who permits herself to become un lovely, who resigns herself hopelessly to the ravages of time, and tbe spoliation of her charms, visits upon her friends and ad mirers a sorrowful regret, that it becomes her to avert to tbe latest day. Of this social duty, it may truthfully be said that she can best acquit herself by the use of Gouraud's Olympian Cream. No other preparation approaches this in excellence, in harmless ness and purity, or compares with it in the number of spontaneous testimonials that its virtues have elicited. Its advertisement has hitherto been its merit, its recommendation by all that have need it, and not by sound ing and pretentions advertising in the jour -nals of the day.
