THE LATEST STREET. CAR.-The Church
and Spruce Street Railroad Company got
the better of the snow and weather yester-
day, by chartering an old "pung," and
covering it with the remains of an ambu-
lance, the interior of which was well lined
with straw, and otherwise made tolerably
comfortable. The runners, though rough
hewn and ancient, went gayly through the
interminable seas of amalgamated snow
and sand, making a noise like side>wheel
steamer, and shutting the dirty mixture to
all sides at once. The novelty of the con-
Germ attracted considerable attention, and
certainly spoke well for the enterprise of
the company in keeping transportation
open at such time.

SPRNGING OF SHED OF ADAMS Exa
PRESS CoMPAEY.-On yesterday morning
about 10 o'clock the west wall of the
freight shed in the rear of the Adams Ex-
press Office suddenly gave way. The shed
is forty feet long and but recently con-
structed. The heavy accumulation of snow
upon the roof of the building caused the
west wall to spring: it gave way about one
foot the entire length of the building, but
was propped SO as 10 prevent it's falling.
No damage is now anticipated. The pres
sure of snow upon the roofs of the houses
throughout the city is very great and we
would not be surprised if some painful ac-
cident were not the result.

Tisdale Suspended from Office.
The Charges Against Him.
UNCLE BAM LOSES HEAVILY,

supervisor Creecy yesterday suspended
from Office Colonel Eugene Tisdale, Andrew
Johnson's Collector of Internal Revenue for
the Third District of Louisiana. Tisdale ia
charged with gross neglect of duty, large
frauds on the revenue, embezzlement Of
public money, positive and repeated viola
tions of the law and instructions from the
Treasury Department.
The amount supposed to be embezzled is
about Sl75,0O0. In answer to Supervisor
Creecy's dispatches to the Secretary of the
Treasury setting forth the above facts, Mr..
McCulloch gave instructions to prosecute
Tisdale to the full extent of the law.
Tisdale used to be located in this city, and
was fond of writing bad poetry for the
Times. He made pilgrimage to Washing.
ton and succeeded in getting a commission
as revenue official, since which time he
has kept house in Monroe, Ouachita parish.
where he has been shining light in the
Democratic party. When first appointed
he was without means, but in less than two
years he became the owner of much real
estate in Ouachita parish, contributed lib
orally for Democratic torchlight process
slons, and on his frequent trips to New Or
leans he would treat all the passengers and
employees on the boats to champagne from
morn till night.
But his official career is now brought to
an inglorious close. oreecy, who won't be
bribed, wined, dined or bullied, is after
him. Honesty and fearlessness in Federal
officials in this city have been SO rare, that
the coming among US of man like Creecy,
seems to stir up all the rascally elements of
the whisky ring. There are others, besides
Tlsdale who need looking after. Uncle Sam
has been too long tr!fed with and swindIed
by his hired servants in this State. and it is
high time that some of the taxes paid by our
citizens should reach the public treasury.
1t is some consolation to know that what
ever can be done to this end will be done NV

NEW YORK.

Large Shipments of Currency to the

Especial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribuns.l
NEW YORK, December Moneu.-The
week opens with decided activity in the
money market. Currency shipments to the
south and West continue on liberal scale.
One bank to-day received an order from Chi.
cago for five hundred thousand dollars, and
another bank had an order for four hundred
thousand to Cincinnati. An intimation
from Washington that the Supreme Court is
likely to declare the legal tender act uncon.
sttutional excites eager interest in Wall
street, but it is generally believed that the
Chlet justice will postpone the decision
until Congress is allowed time to take less
violent method of reaching specie payment.
There is no disposition to operate until the
question is decided. Several private tele-
grams were received this afternoon that
the act would probably be declared consti
tutional, and gave a momentary buoyancy
to the market.

A SHINING LIGHT IN DARKNESS,
CHLOROFORMING A HOTEL KEEPER.
The Democratic Nigger.

1t is the misfortune of party that has
patronage at its command to be disgraced by
camp-tellowers. o. Shaw, the Democratic
niger" who borrowed money from Rpub-
lican members of the Legislature and Re-
publican citizens, was one of the most per-
tinscious and persevering of these followers.
When he could borrow no more money from
Republicans, being too lazy to work, he
went over, soul, body, tattered coat and
toeless shoes, to the Democrats, and became
one Of their most efficient coadjutors in the
work OF attempting to convert colored vot.
ers to the Democratic faith. He has con-
scIentious scruples against paying to his
Republican victims any of the large or small
amounts out of which he swindled them,
The following pleasant paragraph-esps
cially agreeable to such Republicans as have
made permanent investments by loaning
small amounts of money to Mr.. FarreI-We
copy from the ouachita Telegraph, with the
suggestion that when he is released from
Caldwell jail and this little unpleasantness,
the financial operator will probably JOIN the
ranks of the Democracy and, like o. Shaw,
become leader of that party which hugs
to Its bosom every man who renounces Re-
publicanism, whatever may be his offenses
against law. This is what the Telegraph
says:
One Farrell, notorious Radical, was one
of the Registrars appointed for the parish
of Caldwell. He made himself very busy in
that parish in trying to fix up things to se-
cure Radical success by fraud; but falling
in this, he concluded to fix up things for
himself As he could not swindle the Demo
Gratis, he tried his sharpness on Radical
brother. He was not very fortunate in the
selection of his victim, for, of all the shrewd
fellows, who are up to lodges Faulkner,
the Radical Representative from Caldwell
is among the keenest. He Is a perfect old
salamander.
Faulkner keeps a hotd. Through the
agency of chloroform Fsrrel put the gentle
and unsuspecting Faulkner to sleep and
lifted him out Of 800. Faulkner, ON re-
covering from his slumber, did Sometime
which he never did during the war. Al.
though he was paid TO do it. and held a
commission f,r that purpose; he actuallT
presented yistol at his enemy, and made
him disgorse and own up. Farrell now lies
in Jail, SJd will remain there until he can
find tn wherewithal to appease Faux
ners snger. 70
