The LADIES FAIR.-The Morning SMs
of yesterday has the following notice:
At the fair now being held in the new
church Of ST. John the Baptist, there is one
gentleman-a constant visitOr-lavishing
his money without stint, and patronizing
every table indiscriminatcly. One is par
ticularly favored by his presence, and that
is the branch OF the Ihbernia Bank 1t
may be we'll called the golden table. judg-
ing from the richness and splendor Of the
articles spread upon it, and is presided
over by the young lady graduates of the
st. Mary Dominican Convent. The patron
of this table is the Hon. z. J. Kennedy, the
mammoth lcvee contractor. His unsparing
patronage Of this table is attributable as
much to his own natural benevolence as to
the fact OF his niece, the amiable and ac-
complshed Miss Mary Gallagher. also one
of the young ladies of the convent school,
being connected with it. This is not the
only fair in New Orleans the great million
aire supports. The one lately held in the
Third District is indebted to him for the
swelling of its accumulated receipts.
A heavy mail Will be distributed from
the postotfice department. now under the
superintendent of Miss Rose Dayries, to-
morrow Sunday evening. in one of which
will be found fifty dollar bill, presented to
the postot1ice by Mr. p j. Kennedy MAY
God rrolong his life, and spare him long to
enjoy the blessings of his princely fortune
As the accumulated mass of letters now
lying in the postotiice will require some
time for assortment and distribution, it is
hoped that gentlemen will call in time and
redeem them. Some one will 90 home re-

made many inquiries for her husband, who
had disappeared somewhat mysteriously.
The various police stations were visited, but
no person of the name sought could be
found enrolled among the chosen and the
lady was quite distracted IN consequence.
After considerable further search. the dis
covery was made that the husband had been
arrested by detective who came here from
Missouri, armed with q requisition; but the
accused's name. by accident, was entered
wrong. The name is James Hubert Scott,
and the charge against him IRON Missouri
is something akin to larceny, on a rather
grand scale. He was no sooner in one
trouble than another followed quickly on
its heels.
merchant from New York, here on bust

Why the Tennessee is not Lost.

these reasons:
New YORK. February l5.-Parties here
who profess to he well acquainted with all
the schemes of the San Domingo annex
ationists, state that there need be no anxiety
about the Tennessee; that she no doubt is
safely moored at San Domingo City, but
that all communication between the island
and the United States has been purposely
cut off, so as to prevent the newspaper cor
respondents on board from forestalling the
result of the voyage and that of the lnvesti
cation before the commissioners official re-
port has been sent to Congress. Admiral
Lee is believed to possess secret instructions
to employ the vessels of the West India
squadron for the purpose Of forming a cor
don around the Tennessee, and around the
island if necessary, to prevent the least
scrap of correspondence either in regard to
the vessel or in regard to the commissioners,
to leave the trigate that took them from
New York The Tennessee will no doubt
bring the news of her own arrival out, and
the commissioners report, it is confidently
expected, will be before Congress even be-
fore the close OF the present session. The
outrage will then have been consummatcd
before even the newspaper men On board
can possibly have all their Investigations in
print.
