ALBAM, . Y. Adjustment of a Railroad Difficulty Foreign aews, &c. Excitement among the Fenians In Jfew Or leans.' Albany N. Y.; Jan. 22. At the session of the Railroad Committee, last evening, to investigate the difficulty between the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad Companiei;? William H. . .Vanderbildt, Vice President of the latter company, made a statement which did not differ from that already before the public, showing that the N. Y. Central Railroad Company had not carried out an agreement which had been entered into by the former board..; It transpired that the agreement now entered upon provides that the Hudson River Road 6hall receive pay from the New York Central a bonus on the basis of $100,000 up to the 18th inst., when the Hudson is to do its own business. The r Herald's Vera Cruz correspondent says a force of fifty negroes and Algerines had burned the villages of Juniata and Catastle, under orders from the French commandant of Vera Cruz. A severe conscription is going on at the Capital. Maximilian intends going to Maderia, it is said, in case the National Congress does not sustain him. Seventeen thousand Republicans, under Diaz, were reported in the neighborhood of the City of Mexico, awaiting its evacuation. The Herald's Toronto special says : G. J. Mather, an English Fenian, was tried and acquitted by an American jury in Toronto yesterday. The exrebel Genera Early was summoned as a juror, but did not appear. Thomas Cooney was sentenced to be ' hung on the 8th of March next The 2ZeraW New Orleans special of yesterday says that ' much excitement prevailed among te Irish citizens to-day from some cause, possibly the card from Head Centre McCleary, calling on all able-bodied Fenians to report for duty immediately. Several prominent Fenian officials from New York left here yesterday for Mobile, where,, the blockade - runner Mory, Captain Hayes, is being prepared for sea, but whether by the Fenians or -runner morv. i the Knights of Arabia is unknown. She has a large surplus crew on board, and it is pretty well established that she is destined for some mysterious cruise. ' ' ' The Deputy Commander of the Knights of Arabia left this city incognito on the 13th inst., leaving part of his baggage behind. Something is in the wind, but whether the expedition is against the English merchant vessels, or a raid upon the St. Domingo by the Knight3, cannot be discovered. The Times Washington special says Gen. Grant and family intend to sail for Europe in April next, and will visit the Paris Exposition. AXA APOLIS, MD. Another vote for v. S. Senator , Ho Election.

This will displace the Mavor and City Council chosen at the October election, Dy aoout 5.(RM) votes only out of 14,000 registered nndfr thf , construction then given the Registry Law.

III., Jan. 21. N. S, Wier & Co.'s cultivator- manufactory was destroyed by fire yesterday. Loss $50,000; insured for $15,000. GoTernors Morton and Baker. The Terre Haute Express, by the pen, ' we take it, of ; Hon. R. W, Thompson, one of the most distin guished political leaders of the West, speaks thus both of Governor Morton and Lieutenant Governor Baker, and there is not a word of either that the Union men of the State will not swear to: ol " t n-n;.f i, the day -tji thetleliveiya of" the Message, the Union members of the Legislature- unanimously nominate him fer the Senate of the United States, a position to which it was the height of folly for any other man in the State now to aspire. This was a just and deserved compliment to a faithful public servant, who, with im paired health and strength, stood firmly and manly at hi3 post of duty, when the storm beat upon the ship of State, and the life of the Na tion was imperilled- It is honorable to him, and honorable to the State. The loyal men. of the whole country approve ltior all his oiacial conduct during the war has furnished them an earnest that7 in his career in the Senate, he; will; be no less distinguished than he has been as Governor, for his devotion to those principles which are as essentially necessary to the future glory of the Nation as the circulation of the blood is to human life. Governor Morton will at once take his position in the front rank of the Senate, and we predict for him a proud and honorable career in that body. "While the State Will regret his vacation of the Gubernatorial chair which bis election to the , Senate will render necessary--its honor and interests will be no less safe in the hands of his successor . than they: have been in his. Lieutenant. Governor Baker is not surpassed by any man ; in the State in those high qualities which are essential , to the successful management of public affairs..- To a ripe and matured judgment he adds the possession of the most unsullied private and public virtue, and an industry which never tires in the performance of duty. . With a clear head to direct his judgment," and with his heart in the right place, he will so administer the affairs of the State that the most captious will find no just ground of fault. While the State has been proud of such a Governor as Morton, we hazard nothing in saying that she will hereafter take equal pride in his successor." The Constitutional Amendment, (Finally Adopted and Submitted the Legislature of the States. ' ' IN THE SENATE. ., 'l8GG, June 8.
