sion of philanthropy, and may success attend his
efforts.

explosion of the louisiana which has been going
on before u. S. Commissioner Baldwin, was CON
cluded last evening, and resulted in the acqut-
tai of Capt. Cannon and John l.. Smith, first engi-
Smith was discharged before the exarnina-
ton was resumed, at the suggestion of the U. s.
District Attorney, who stated that the evidence
against him of such nature that jury
would convict, and that il only went TO show the
impotence Of the law of Congress made to cover
such cases. Mr.. Smith then called a wit
ness, and examined at length, but his testimony
not important. At the conclusion the case was
submitted without argument on either side and the
Recorder Immediately discharged the accused.
