LETTIE FROM THE THIEF WHO ECEEED TEE
CANAL BANK OF NEW ORLEANS OF FIFTY. THOU?
SAND DOLE AB 5-HOW HE DID IT.
We have already given our readers the par?
ticulars of the mysterious robbery last week,
by which the Canal Eank of New Orl?ans lost
$50,000. The following extraordinary and im?
pudent letter from the successful ro'gue is print*
ed in the New Orleans Times :
To the Editor of the X 0. Times :
DEAE SIB-I wish to address you a few re?
marks as to the operation at the Canal Bank.
The Pr?tention of the fancy fly-cops and peelers
cf this city, and the many amusing speculations
as to " how it was done."' induce' me to blow
the matter from beginning to end. I am still
in New Orleans, which I Took upon as a fine
field and think money cm be tartde easy.
As to this lift, it can be done any day that
money is moving. I had my eye o j the" Caual
Bank and the men in it. Aflror, of the ex?
press, is the only man I was afraid of. I had
some luck that morning, for I happened to see
the messenger of the bank pet a package o:
money envelopes from the express office and
start towards the bank. I followed him as far
as Peterson's coal office, on Gravier-streer. ?
when I struck across the other side, and was
ahead of him at the bank (crossing at Peter?
son's office is where I got that yellow sand on
my hoots your local mentioned). The messeri?
ger came "in at the side door of the bank and
threw down the package of envelopes cn the
desk of the exchange clerk, who eaid he was
f;lad he came, as he was "ready to send off that
ot of $50,000 to Morgan's Sons'" and "to be on
hand to take it to the express." Here was a
lay out ! Should I spot the clerk or the mes?
senger ? "Says I, "take both chances. If the
lush ia hedged too close at the bank, Til after
the messenger." Done. I slipped oat of the
eide dodr on Gravier-street, went into the
entrance of the law offices leading up over the
bank; took off my coat and hat; stowed them
in the water closet at the head of the
stairs, and slipped down again, round
the corner to the Camp-street 6ide.
Here I stepped into the bank again, but the
messenger had gone. 1 could see the ex?
change clerk comparing the money with some?
thing on his desk, which I took at once to bo
the list of numbers. I stood a minute at the
paying teller's counter, where three or four
clerks were drawing. I then went to the
general'desi in the cerner. Here I saw the
exchange clerk seal the package. No messen?
ger yet. I wasn't a bit nervous, but I kept my
eye well skinned. I even thought of writing a
duplicate envelope (1 always carry tteoi), but,
says I, "what's the use?" Here "is where the
clerk is mistaken about the time he was away
from his desk. He left the envelope near the
edge of his ledger, and went to threa different
desks, examining three clifferent books; then
he took the list into the cashier's or Presi
dent'? room. Says L "rnincl your eye, now'-?
your chance." Nobody was noticing me. I
walked up to the desk, and while the clerk's
back wa8 to me, and the President had his
head bent, down over the list of mun ber?,
both v?ryr close together. I took finn hold
of the railing, put my toes on the comb?
ine below; and the package was up mv
?sleeve in a twinkle. I stooped immediatelv, as
if to fix my shoe. Not astir! SaysL, "It's
minel'' andi stepped out the side door, started
up to the water-closet at the head ot'the stairs
next door, put on my coat and hat, stowed the
lush in my private particular, threw the envel?
ope down the hole, wiped my boot soles, and
went up still further into Hunton's law office.
Nobody was in. I brushed my clothes careful?
ly, and sat down to write an appointment with
Mr. Hunton for 1 o'clock, signing it Abram
Gereon, Jefferson, Texas. Nobody came in yet.
1 went down to the street, saw a "crowd around
my raihng, reaching over to see how they could
do it ; turned mto Camp-street and saw" Izard
and farrell at the corner of the City Hotel.
They looked very wiee. I stood a good bit near
the corner of Camp and Canal, and presently I
-saw Farrell riding on the top of a hotel stage,
-down Common-street. He is smart, he is.
Everybody was saying "there goes Farrell," as
if every cove in the country didn't know Farrell,
especially when sitting on "top of a hotel stage,
on purpose to be eeen. I walked on up to the
bank, and a good many were looking up at the
building. 11 looked up too. It is a pretty
budding. I like its style verv much. But
then to make such a to do over a few bills
thrown right in a cove's way is funny to me.
Truly, your constant ieader,
ABEAM GEBSON,
Jefferson, Texas.
Hunton knows that name, though I don't
think he ever saw me.
P. S.-I write you this because I like to read
your paper, and would like to see this printed,
if you think it worth while. Ihat $10,000 re?
ward is good. Please give my compliments to
Izard, Farrell, and the rest of the. fly co^,g

thus ex"jibiting a decrease in the Quantity of cotton
! a: =en compared with last year of 180,000 bales; but
! i: has to "be explained that the Eonbay shipment

of 22S.140 bale;!; the quantity taken for consump?

LIVERPOOL, April 3-11.15 A. M.-COTTON-The
regular weekly cotton circular, issued under the aus?
pices of tu? liverpool Cotton Broker-' As-cciaikn,
has the following "remarks on the market ior the
week:
The market hos been very active, an? tte iii-.?
during the week just closed have rea.-Led the altr.on
unprecedented figures o? 1C8.000 biles. Tie adv.mce
:'n prices Lave been marked, and the quotatiOLS aro
at least 1',,'d ft h'.?her on American descriptions,
than at the close of last week. There has been an
a-tive demand for expert, and of the above siies 49,
i%0 bales were taken for this purpose, against only
ll.'.OO las; werk. The amount taken for speculation
was lLuOO.-biles, leaving|about 1OO.C00 for lecal con?
sumption. Ihe very heavy ?ales have m aerially redu?
ced the stock on hand,not only of Ame' icans.but of all
discri^tions. According to the best estimates 'he
total amount in port and on shipboard at present
c:mpared with last weet, is as lol'.nws:

We thal] try to rive Sgvtres in our next dispatch.
The toial .stoc/t ol cotton at sea, destined to this
port, is estimated at 382,098 bales, ci which amount
213.1.00 biles are on the way irani different por:? in

\CW Orleans .Market.
NETT ORLE O'S. April 1.- Corxo.w-The ?ales !
to-?ay reach 7000 bales, closing at an advance on
yesterday's prices of about life. We quote Ordinary
-B25C; Goud Ordinary 20*^270; Low Middling 27
a28c; and Middling 2.5>ia29c; the latter price bat?
ing been paid for a crop of ISO bales of good staple
classing Liverpool Middling.
As is usually the case at this period of the season,
w.th declining receipts, the classification is much
les? rigid, and what a few weeks ago wo3 called i
good stvle of Good Ordinary, now passes for Low
Middling.
The openinc demand was quite brisk at 27c for
Low Middling, the early telegiam reporting on ac?
tive demand in Liverpool, at steady prires.
The 1.20 P. M. dispatches quoted Middling Orleans
-al2d, wi-h heavy sales; Kew York advancing also,
to 28c for Uplands. This intelligence sent up prices
and induced factors to ask for the few remaining
lists on the mar ? et more than buyers were wilting to
concede. L later dispatch quotes a decline in Liver?
pool to lljg. and some private ac.~o-.nts say to ll?4'd.
The effect of this will be developed to-morrow.

GEXTT.EMKN : In reply to jour inquiry relative to the merits of WHANN'S SUPER-PHOS?
PHATE, which, at your recommendation, I empoyed this season upon my Cotton lands, I
would state that it has f ully equalled, and indeed surpassed my expectations, and its applica
icn has been attended by the most favorable results. I have used it in connection with the
most popular Phosphates, and unhesitatingly give the preference to WHANN'S, which I
regard as being (next to Peruvian Guano) the most valuable Fertilizer for Cotton that has been
offered to the public. Vory respectfully, ALLEN C. IZARD.
