The End ofn RnckIssa Garacr.

Officer Pastor, of the Baltimore Police
force, arrived In New York yesterday
afternoon, having in custody a man
named B~eardsley Van Alstyne, who, 1t
will be remembered, absconded from
Lyons, Wayne county, N. Y, on the 9th
Of March last, with all the available
assets Of the bank formerly owned by
P. R. Westfall. The facts of the case
are interesting. Van Alstyne, who en-
joyed an excellent reputation, had for
several years acted as cashier Of the
bank. The owner of tho bank had in-
dulged In several ruinous speculations
previous to this time, and when an ex-
animation was made Uf the books after
the fight of Van Alstyne, it was found
that many of the mercantile and agri.
cultural depositors were utterly ruined
BY the suspension of tho bank, so reck-
lessly had the money been s~quandered.
The capital, amounting to Sl0o, 900, the
entire deposits and q great part OF the
bonds and sums Of money left for safe
keeping, had all been lost in specula.
tons by Westflll, and what was left OF
the assets had been appropriated by
Van Alstyne, with which he escaped to
this city.
As o as the failure Of the bank and
the defalcation became known, the
Messrs. Warren, farmers ut South So
das, Wayne county, who had a deposit
Of $22,0 900 in United States bonds In
the bank, took steps to secure the arrest
of the cashier, by laying the facts
before Superintendent Kennedy. The
latter person learned that Van AL
styne had obtained the sum OF
$4,000 in this city by means OF the
| credit of the bank, tho failure Of which
was not then known. To effect his ar
rest Superintendent Kennedy sent conf
Dental circulars, requesting informa-
ton, to the heads Of the police depart
ments throughout the country, but
nothing had been heard Of Van Alstyne
until one day last week, when the chief
| of the Baltimore police telegraphed to
this city that Van Alstyne had been ar
rested there. He was brought to New
York yesterday afternoon and locked up
at Police Headquarters. Mr.. A P.
| Warren also arrived in the city yester-
day and sued out q suit of attachment
against So, 700 in gold and other secu-
rites which were found on the prisoner.
A diamond breast-pin, q gold watch and
chain, u diamond ring, a pistol and n
few other articles of minor value were
also attached. This property will be
held by Sheriff O'Brien pending the suit.
Van Alstyne is 81 years Of age, and n
native of this State. He said that he
had lost $50 900 by the failure Of tho
bank, and that q relative lost $50, 900.
After raising SIS, 1000 on the credit Of the
bank, he went to Brazil in a sailing ves-
| sci, remaining there but o few days, and
going thence to Baltimore, where he
has since been living in luxurious ease.
He will be detained Mt Police ~Headquar-
ters for the presently. Y. Commercial

General Committee on Democratic
Organization

THREE PLANKs, No MoRE-The masses
throughout the whole country are anxiously
waiting for the 4th day of July and the &C
tion of the National Democratic Convention
Until that representative body meets and
gives to the world its platform and names its
choice for the Presidency, even here in old
Hardeman we have the mind and the right
TO say something expressive of our views.
First foremost and last, the Hon GEORGE
H. PENDLEToN is the man. Three planks
are all that is necessary for him or any
Democrat to stand on: First, plowholder
againt the bondhoider-equal taxation and
equal rights. Second, opposition to negro
sufFrage-no mincingr but bold and de-
termined stand in favor of white men first,
and the negro afterwards. Third, the Union
as it was-slavery excepted-an end to re-
construction laws military districts, and
shoulder strap tyranny and pomposity. On
this plain and just platform the nominee of
the Democratic party could be borne into of
fee beyond the shadow Of a doubt The
deathbelI of radicalism was sounded in Ohio
last fall when Pendleton announced that he
would fight for the three poiRts named
above, and at one sweep 10000 unclean
beasts were hurled into oblivion by the wave
of reaction California, Nevada, Oregon,
Wisconsin, Connecticut, New York, Ken
lucky, Delaware, New Jersey, Indiana, Mis-
souri, and Illinois are sure to go for Pendle
ton and the three plank platform Even the
design of the structure has taken from the
radical ranks throughout the Northern
States in which elections have recently been
held. over 100000 votes If the drawing
of the picture produces such glorious results
what may we not hope for when the struct
ure is put soIidly together by the representa-
tiyes Of the people on the 4th of July. Hon
estly believing that George Il. PendletOn
personally and pOlitically-is the man to
whom we must look if we would triumph
over the enemies of constitutional liberty
we place his name at the head Of this col
umn as our frst choice for the next Presi-
eenev. Willingly do we accord to Andrew
Johnson all that is due him-he is not the
man to lead the greeuback men to victory
The intriguer Chase, would ruin the party
no old line Democrat could vote his ticket
PendIeton is the man. and we hope that his
nomination will be made unanimous on tho
6rst vote taken by the convention. Give the
dspH his due and the Presidential chair to
Pendletonl That's our ticket.

o, Ho!-There is said to be 10000 en-
franchised negroes in Tennessee, a large
number of whom are members of the loyal
league By reason of these 1000 negro
votes this State is entitled to an extra Con-
gresham. More than one aspiring darkie
has declared his intention to run for the
extra seat, claiming that the enfranchised
negroes should be represented by one Of
their own race. The MarYville Republican,
loyal league organ, boldly asserts that a
negro Congressman must be elected to rep
resent the cOlored voters, and says that the
loyal leagues throughout the State will nom
mate gentleman of color" and that it
would be an outrage for any white radical to
run against the dusky nominee of the loyal
Ieaguers And more, the radicals of Blount
county claim that no one can beat the negro
candidate for the extra seat, and cOnse-
quently openly declare that it is their inten-
ton to support a negro for Congress A

A Coon MovE.-At the Democratic Con-

mittee was appointed to frame an address to
the President of the National Convention,
which meets in New York on the 4th of
July, setting forth our political grievances
and the unwarrantable usurpations prac-
ticed by the tyrants who have been robbing
the people of this State, not only of their
political rights for the last three years, but
of everything that an anti-radical party
would protect. This is good move, and
will certainly be productive of great benefit.
The committee is composed of General

pointed by the chairman of the Convention.
