Arrival Of the George Law.
New Yong Mav IA

The steamer George Law arrived here al
II O'Clock this morning with 800 passengers
and 81 10000 in treas lure.
A severe accident happened on the Pana-
ma Railroad to The train carrying the George
Laws outward passengers. The whole
train ran off the track, and many were killed
and wounded. The correct number had not
been aIcertained when the steamer George
Law left Aspinwall.
The steamer George Law sailed from AS.
pnwall on the 9TH Of May.
The steamer Sorona. which left San Fran
cisco on the 2lst of April, had upward Of
S2,000,000 in treasure, Of which seventeen
hundred thousand dollars was for New
York.
The Isthmus papers are filled with official
documents relative to the Panama riots,
but no new facts are ELECTED, and no addi-
tional names of killed and wounded are
given. Ste citizens Of Panama had formed
guard for the protection of property, and
the authorities had placed force at the
disposal Of the Railroad Company, so that
no further violence was anticipated.

The THREE investigating Committees
appointed by the Fusion Legislature are
composed ENTIRELY OF Black Republicans
This is a specimen of Fusion fairness.
The duty of these smelling committees
besides examining what they have once repor-

tai for the Fusionists to use in electioDeer-
ing through the political campaign of 1885,
Although appointed as Legislative Com.
mittees they will act as the State Corespon-
ing Committee of the Black Republican par
ty. They hope by ectiug as legislative
committee to give semblance Of truth to
the "ROOrbacks" they are to concoct. No
Democrats were appointed on these smelling
committees, for the reason that they would
expose the object Of this INFAMOUS
TRICK!
AS far as the late Democra tic officials are
concerned, they fear no investigation. The
Fusion committees who examined their
Books and Accounts, in the early part Of the
session, reported that they were CORRECT
and that every dollar paid to or expended by
them, was lawfully and properly accounted
for! The smelling committees who "go ou
to shear will come back shorn," as die
