many parish, writes to a paper in this city,
kindly furnishing information concerning
the body of dead man he found on the
shore between Salt bayou and Rigolets. An
examination disclosed the fact that the
body had been in the water about two
weeks, SO long that the features were pot
recognizable, and the brain was gone In
one of the pockets was found certificate
signed by Deputy Surveyor j. A. LIE Blanc
and William b. Hall of measurement of
sloop Reckless Babe, of New Orleans, dated
September, 1867, Lawless, master. Also
receipt for seventy-five dollars from E. j.
Lawless in favor of Andrew j. Newell for
boat and tackle. Mr.. Weems and two
friends found several marks of violence on
the body-four holes such as would be made
by bullets.
These gentlemen inferred the corpse near
where it was found, marking the place. 1t
is believed here that the unfortunate was
Jack Newell, compositor who has for years
been employed in the Pieayune office. He
was very fond of fishing and shooting, 60
ing out often and remaining away weeks.
He left here about two weeks ago, having
purchased sloop. 1t is singular that any
one should have killed him, for he was as
inOtfensive a man as can be found. quiet
and mild in his manner and speech. He
was well known and greatly liked by the
of his craft in this city. Mr..
Weems lives on Coquille island, near Fort
Pike. and will furnish further information
should he obtain anything further.

WHEN RoGUEs, ETC.-Consuiners are
aware how fish dealers swindle them, but
the extent is difficult to fathom. Two of
the dealers in Dryades market fortunately
quarreled and went into court to have their
rascally dispute settled. One firm claimed
that in the space of ninety-five days another
firm distracted sl425 profits from the first
named. By adding the last profits to the
sum they actually heeced out of their GUS
toners in that time, our readers can form a
faint idea of the swindle. Will this mo-
nopOly never be removed or modified 1t is
hoped these dealers will quarrel together
until courts and lawyers drain the last dime
they possess, as a retribution for their Of
lenses

ward, as he was in prison charged with
crime, his bail fixed at $4,000. In hunting a
bondsman she found A. O.. Blance, who, for
and in consideration of twenty dollars
would sign, as he was fully competent and
solvent. Moreover, she was to. give him
thirty dollars additional as soon as the lad
was released. These financial agreements
were based on the assertion that Blance
was unquestionably able to perform all he
proposed, but the assertions were long and
broad, without jot OF truth in them, now
swears Mrs. Heating. On this swear Blance
was incarcerated, then bonded to appear
before Recorder Houghton on the twenty
fourth instant, to rebut the accusations, if
