The deceased was one of the old
boatmen Of the West. Sixteen years
ago he built the Ambassador at Pitts
burg. and commanded her in the Gin
cinnati and New Orleans trade. At
forwards he built and commanded the
Prima Donna, one of the fastest
stern wheel boats that ever ran be-
tween Cincinnati and New Orleans,
and she was a frequent visitor here.
During a portion Of the war times he
was master of the Stephen Decatur,
Meinotte, and, subsequently, the
Leonidas: and previous TO assuming
charge of the Armenia, he was in the
service Of the Northern Line Com
pany, commanding the Bill Hender-
son and Savannah. We learn further
that the deceased's home was IN Hays

miles below Pittsburg. where his
widow and seven children reside.

FAMILY MARKET REPORT.

But little can be said respecting the markets this
week which has not been already said in reference
to previous weeks With the hot weather all the
coarscr kinds of meat, whether of beef, mutton or
veal, have become slow Of sale and prices for such
are consequently very low aud nominal Other de-
scrlptions are without alteration. Poultry and game
are scarccr and hat higher Butter and cheese
are easier, and eggs lower than last week. Berries
coming in plentifuly are somewhat freer, but
garden products generally are behind and firm.
Tomatoes especially are scarce and those III the

APRIL I7.-There Is no falling of in
the demand for seasonable goods, and
buyers are anxious to place orders for
Immediate delivery. There have been
further arrivals OF buyers this week
from Memphis, st. Louis, Chicago and
other prominent points, who are want
ing goods for spring and summer trade.
In Haverhin there has been more ac-
tivity, and a number OF buyers were in
that market yesterday and to-day for
machine seWed Serge and Leather
goods, and manufacturers of this class
of work are busy. We also hear Of
some sales there of double solsd- work
that has been held over. There is q
brisk demand for Mems Serge goods,
and buyers find IL difhcult 70 procure
an adequate supply. In Lynn manu-
facturers are very busy, and notwith-
standing all their efforts they are nm
able 70 produce goods as fast As want
ed.E In those towns where strikes have
interrupted manufacturing, the DIM
culties have been amicably settled and
the factories are fully employed. There
has been no material change in prices
generally, although some manufac-
turers decline to take orders for fall
goods except at value upon delivery.

Commissioner Of the Freedmen's

order forbidding agents of the Bureau
to take any active part in politics, he

manner with politics, or forward their
designations. Any agent falling to
comply with this order will be sum-
marily dismissed. n

a dispatch from General Candy, com.
manding the Second Military District,
announcing that in II districts register

the poll lists give 26, 900 votes polled. a
partial canvass of the returns, unofh-

NEW YORK, April 20.-An official
dispatch from Havana contains the fol-
lowing Mexican news:
Governor Rubrs troops in Sinaloa
had deserted.
The rebel General Martini has five
thousand troops.
It is reported that a combination has
been formed between Governor Lozada
and Ex-Governor Pesquiera.
Gen. Corona was determined to use
all his military authority and power
for the settlement of the Sinaloa rebel
lion, and most of the people believe in
the reported formation OF the North
Western Republic out of some Mexi-
can States, but it is the policy of the
government not TO admit even the pos
sibility OF such thing.
An envoy of Negret and Canales
pronounced recently, at Tampico, in
favor of Santa Anna with a regency,
but they were mobbed.
At Vera Cruz the merchants resist
the payment of So per cent export
duty on silver. olls
The rebels in PnbeIa have proclaim
ed for Gen. Negret, under the constitu-
ton of 1867, thereby refusing to recog-
niZe the federal authority of holding
new elections, and proclaiming ortega

Prominent Unionilts and Candidates
Assassinated and Hunted Down.
The ConstItufIon Triumpnant.

NEW ORLEANS, April 1s.9The cleo
ton yesterday and to-day passed of
quietly in this city, Notwithstanding
the violent intimations on the part of
the rebels. Hancook's Boards OF Reg
istry and the Commissioners OF Elec-
ton appointed by them are nearly all
rebels, and have resorted to every sub
terfuge to prevent the colored men
from voting. Unnumbered frauds
have been reported from nearly every
voting precinct in the city. We have
polled large majority for the Consti-
tuition and for all the Republican cam
didates, but as the Commissioners of
Election are in most instances noted
rebels and thugs, fraud is being resort
ed to in counting the ballots, which
will greatly reduce our legal majority.
The State will, nevertheless, give 1000
majority for the Constitution, r.
The Republican of this morning re-
ports the assassination of several prom
inent Republicans in different parts of
the State; others have been hunted and
driven into the woods. fa2fLT ~
The colored candidate for the Lsgis-
lature was killed in Ouiachita Parish.
In thirteen districts where the regis
tration was 59, 900, partial returns show
$4,000 votes polled. Partial returns
from nine districts give 10 636 for the
Constitution, and 5.749 against it.
