S tolen C otton .—We learn that a bale of
cotton which was stolen from Mr. G eobbe
N ewbom in East Feliciana, was found by
the city Marshal, in one pf tho negro shan
ties in the suburbs of onr pty. The darkey
■who stole it, slipped oufcof the way in time
to elude arrest, and is Btfll at large.
A bale of cotton is rather an ugly thing
lor a thief to try and hidb. Even the mu
nie box which our friend . W ax , had stolen
from him not many daj>B since, couldn't
stay hid, but was found iji possession of the
aable individual who topk it, for which
artistic operation the saidj individual found
himself in posaession of lodgings in the city
jail. j

putting a stop to so mi sh of that un
earthly clamor of steam- whistling which
some of the steamboat pi! >ts seem to have
a decided fancy for, whili ; in port, to the
great disgust of persons vho love quiet
and whose tympanums n\ i of delicate or

The editor of the Timet féconds the mo
tion of his correspondent and trusts that
the Cairo Board of Aide nen, will abate
the nuisance at, their next meeting, an or
dinance having already ^>ean framed to
meet the case in so far fi i the welfare of
Cairo is concerned. The editor very ju
diciously remarks :
"If there is a nuisance i lore intolerable
than another, it is the h bit indulged in
by steamboat pilot» openi ft their whistle
valves and making an i t'ernal, hideous
noise, sufficent to infuse terror in the heart
and soul of the strongest constitution em
bodied in man, and continuing the noise
from ono to three minutesf"
There are certain pilots who, it would
appear, take as much delight in those "in

nuisance in question), a^ noisy children

so as to make him sneezt violently, and

Terrific Explosion—Ten Person* Killed and
Eighteen Wounded—Full Particulars.—Dur
ing Monday afternoon a most serious acci
dent occurred on the lower Ohio, near
Rome, Ind., by which ten persons lost
their lives and eighteen were very badly
wounded, one of whom has since died, and
there is but little hope of the recovery
of the others. As our reader« will remem
ber, there wus a sale of boats at Mound
City a short time since, the sale comprising
the boats that had been in the Government
service, somo of them ever since the com
mencement of the rebellion. Some of those
boats were purchased by parties in Cin
cinnati, who were taking them there for
repairs. A number of Ohio soldiers, who
were in that neighborhood, got on these
boats for the purpose of going home, hav
ing been mustered out of the service, or at
any rate about to be, and allowed once
again to return to their peaoeful homes, to
live among relations and friends, aftor
having toiled amidst blood and carnage
for a number of years. But alas ! how
true is the saying that "in the midst of
life we are in death," and a number of
those who were overjoyed at the thought
of home were soon to be hurried into
eternity.
The parties who were the victims of the
accident, wore all members of the 70th
Ohio, and were en route for their homes in
Adams county, Ohio.
They took passage on the Argosy, one
of the boats bought at Mound City, for
Cincinnati, and were coming up the Ohio
when the accident occurred, which was on
Monday evening. The boat was caught
in the storm which raged along the river,
and when near Rome, Indiana, the wind
became so strong that the pilot was unable
to steer the course of the/ boat, and her
crew were unable to manage her. The
wind carried her with great force into the
bank and on to a rocky surface. So strong
was the shock when the boat struck the
bank that the mud drum exploded with
great force, scalding all the soldiers that
were near, a number being on the deck at
the time. The consternation was great,
every one thinking that the boat had been
blown to atoms. During the excitement
which ensued, eight jumped overboard,
and have not since been seen or heard of,
and it is more than likely that tho entire
eight found a watery grave. When the
drum exploded the hoi water was thrown
in all directions, scalding twenty of the
regiment, two of whom were killed out
right, and the others badly injured. The
soldiers were removed to another boat and
arrived here yesterday en route for Cincin
nati. On the road to this plae« one of the
number died, and his body was left here
for interment. We learn from persons
who saw the wounded men that they are
all dangerously scalded. It was one of
those unforeseen accidents which it was
not, in the power of man to prevent. The
Argosy belonged to Capt. Yandergrift,
who had command of her at the time of
the catastrophe.
The Colonel of the regiment states that
th# Morning Star, which came along after
wards, was hailed and told that there were
a number of wounded soldiers aboard, but
she refused to land for them or render any
assistance. The Colonel has laid the case
before the military authorities, and we un
derstand that it will be investigated. Un
til then, we shall hope that there is some
mistake in the matter, for we esteem
highly the officers of that packet.
The above is the most serious accident
that has occurred on our river for some
time, resulting as it did in the death of
eight persons, and the probably fatal
wounding of eighteen more. The follow
ing men were drowned: Sergeant Hugh
Tayor, company K; private McKinley,
company—; Corporal A. Fiscus, company
K; private John Roebuck, company G;
private Amos Rose, company C; Commis
sary Sercreant Hiram Behrus, and John
McDonald, company F.
Private Martin Long, company K, and a
discharged soldier of the 39th Indiana,
have died, and Sergeant Wm. Eaglehoff,
company 1; private Michael Murry, com
ry D; private Norton Shelby, company
private Busbee, company D, and Isaac
Taylor, company C, are severely scalded.
None of the bodies of the drowned were
recovered, except that of Aaron Fiscus.—

a Bribe of $200,000 frwn Cotton <S 'harpers.—
Brevet Brig. Gen. C. A. Grosvenor, Pro
vost Marshal General of Augusta, Ga., has
placed himself on the record as one of the
most extraordinary men the war has de
veloped. A brace of gentlemen—Messrs.
Thomas 8. Metcalf and Leopold Cohn —
having a good thing in prospect, offered
Gen. Grosvenor the snug little sum of
$280,000 to decide a cotton question in
their favor. Strange to say, the General
couldn't see it, and tho speculators were
arrested for an attempt to bribe an officer.
Cohn admitted tho truth of the charge,
and Gen. Steadman, to whom the ease was
referred, decided as follows :
That said Leopold Cohn shall leave the
Department of Georgia within twenty
four hours, to-wit : On or before 12 o'clock
M., of the 12th day of August, 1865, and
take up his residence at a point not nearer
Augusta than Charleston, S. C., and not
to return during the military occupancy of
Georgia, under penalty of arrest and pun
ishment for disobedience of orders.
That the money deposited by said Met
calf and Cohn, tho property of said Met
calf, with said Brevet Brig. Gen. Grosve
nor, in part payment for said offer of
$200,000, to-wit: The sum of $11,000 to be
distributed on tho order of the Major Gen
eral commanding for the rolief of the poor
of Augusta.
G en. G eokge W. M organ .—George W.
Morgan, whom the Democracy of Ohio
have just put upon the track for Governor
ship, is a capital nominee. He is a bravo
soldier, an accomplished scholar, a high
toned gentleman, and a Democrat always
thoroughly loyal to its organization. He
has had much experience in political af
fairs, both in the State and nation, tho lat
ter of which he represented most credita
bly abroad, as its Minister to foreign
Courts. He served with credit and dis
tinction in the Mexican as well as in the
civil war. There is not a blemish or flaw
upon his private character. His honor
and purity were never questioned. He
would make a Governor of whom Ohio
might be proud.— St. Louis Republican.
F emale L abor in M assachdsetts .—Fe
male labor is very scarce in Boston, and
notwithstanding the preponderance of fe
males there is no necessity of any effort to
relieve the community of any large num
ber, for they can obtain an honest liveli
hood at home. Operatives are wanted in
every manufacturing town in New Eng
land, while in Boston, in very many de
partments of trade, girls are at a premium.
In New \ork and Philadelphia labor is
also very scarce. The amount of labor
which is wasted in this country is very
great, and if our philanthropists would
devote a portion of their time to making
the poor more industrious and the lazy
more active, we should have less crime.
The loafers on Boston Common rob the
community of two thousand dollars every
day J?t>wing Gazette,

in relation to tlie case of Shelly, the Tribune
correspondent arrested at New Orleans by
order of Gen. Canby. It is stated, how
ever, that there is another side to the mat

OFTHR
"JVew Orleans Crescent."
The undersign«) will resume, on M ondât , the
2d of October next, at 94 Camp street, the publi
cation of the "CRESCENT," suspended by military
authority, on the 13th of May, 1882.
The Crescent will aim to lay before Its readers
the latest intelligence by Telegraph and Mail from
all parta of the world, and it will give special at
tention to the co-nmercial int« esta of this city,
and the agricultural and political interests of
Louisiana and the adjoining States.
In the present unsettled state of affairs, it will
use all its influence In restorl ng order, tranquility
and prosperity to the people, and in upholding
their personal and political rights.
Its position will be more fully developed in its
columns, where all public questions affecting the
imerehta of our people will be discussed freely (
courteously and conscientiously.
As all the materials and expenses attending the
pablication of the Crescent are required to be
paid for in cash, and those expenses being fully
double what they formerly were, it is hoped that
its patrons will not object to the rule requiring
advance payments for advertisements and sub
scriptions.

Daily—Sundays excepted—and a Weekly Edition
will be issued every Saturday.

THIS Institution, incorporated by an act of the
Legislature of the year 1858, and empowered
to (;rant diplomas, confer degrees, and bestow Ui

physical, moral und intellectual development of
students. It is commodious and well ventilated ;
situated in a quiet and healthy part of the city.
Its successful career is marked by the high degree
of public confidence it has already gained, and
the annual increase of the number of students.
