Washington, November 22. j BFFECT OP THE LOUISIANA CASS. : Should Mr. Butler be admitted it will inevitably lead to . the admission of Eustis and Spofford. This is tho roughly understood, and it accounts for a remarkable scene witnessed in the Senate chamber after the ad journment.' f Senator Conk ling was the centre piece of a group consisting of himself. Senators Anthony,. Howe, Mitchell and others. In his band he held a tally list, and, with the others looking over his shoulders, scanned eagerly one by one the yeas and nays. All that could be made out was that if every absentee had been present the majority of one would still have been .on the same side. It was demonstrated that the two carpet baggers, Conover and Patter son, have it in their power to turn the Senate one way or the other. The situation is looked upon as so grave that; a telegram was sent to Mr. Blaine "to-night urging him if possibles to return. - His pair with Mr. Grover would hold until ; the re turn of the latter, but his presence and counsel and assistance in debate is desired. For it is a big stake that the Democrats and the Republicans are now. playing for; no less than the control of the Senate. If three De mocrats can be put into the three contested seats no one questions that the Democrats wonld then control the Senate, and immediately. This is so well understood that the battle between the contending sides will be fierce and protracted. The object of the Republicans will be to delay a vote on the case either of Butler or Eastis until the case of Kellogg is decided. With this point in view they will.if the motion to discharge the committee from the further consideration of Butler's case be carried, debate the question of his admission until the committee is ready to report on tbe case of, Kellogg, and then it is their expectation that Conover and Patter son will vote for Kellogg. With Kellogg in,' the cases of Kustis and Spofford could be managed, as they think, by the present majority of the Senate. v Florida Republicans to-night ex press their confidence that on the final vote Senator Conover will uot sepa rate from his party. They say that he is only coquetting with the JDemo crats for purposes ; of , his own with reference' to the federal patronage in Florida. ! ' AFP1IBS IN MEXICO.

The friends of Senor Vallarta proposed a resolution in the" Senate approv ing his diplomatic course on the Ameri can' question. ; It was .voted down. Fears are eutertained that the per fidious course of Vallarta will force war upon the United States. : A law has passed the Senate pro hibiting tfte election of a President to a second term. It is expected to pass the House also. . . t Congress continues to show deadly hostility to the English company owning the Vera Cruz railway. Gen.

Taylor, Clerk of the Superior Court, on Wednesday afternoon, against the German barque Sirene, Capt. Calliess, on the eve of sailing for Havre, France, with a cargo of cotton shipped by Col. A Pope, as agent for the W., C. & A. Railroad Company. The attachment was issued upon the affida vit of Capt. E J. Penny packer. President of the Wilmington Compress and Ware house Company, which was to the effect that Capt. Callieaa, as part owner of the vessel, was indebted to the Compress Com pany in the sum of $1,252.25, for com pressing 1,646 bales of cotton. The refusa of Capt. Calliess to pay the amount being based ou the fact that he, as agent and part owner of the vessel, claimed demur rage as an offset for having been detained about thirty days in consequence of some derangement in the machinery of the Com press, while the Compress Company, it is -understood, claim that as they are not the charter party it is not propter that they should be made responsible, and the char ter party (the W., C. & A. R. R.) insist that as they had already delivered the cotton to the Compress they were uot to blame for the detention of the vessel, especially as they had not obligated to deliver compress ed cotton, that being a matter of choice on the part of the agent and owners of the vessel. The attachment was served on the ves sel about 6 o'clock on Wednesday evening, by Sheriff Manning, who left a deputy in charge of her until yesterday morning, when Messrs. E.
