| chned to consider it, but when he got back
| 10 missouri, seeing that the question of an
neXatton of San Domingo was likely TO be
| come serious point of difference, he wrote
TO General Pleasonton, asking him to state
more iuIiy the overtures made veI bally in
New York. PleasOntOn answered the letter
quite explicitly, and it is this which Scburz
says he can produce.
Carl SchuFz, in letter to the Trib1tne
says that the letter quoted in his St IOujs
speech concerning patronage in connection
with the San Domingo business, was ad,
dressed to him by General Alfred Pleasan-
ton, late Commissioner of Internal Revenue

note from me, the contents of which have
a memorandum, which reads as follows
ASK whether ne remembers a converse

trOnage | wanted, etc and ask him whether
he was authorized by the President TO do

ceived from General PleasOntOn the follow
ing note:

DEAR GENERAL-Of course have no OBJ
lection to your giving my name 70 the pub
lie in explanation of the facts | would say
that being friend of the President as well
as OF yourself, | desired you should be on
good terms, and you should understand
that there was no personal feeling in the
way of relations mutually satisfactory
Your statement is correct that the President
wanted your support for his San Domingo
scheme, and that You could have had
the patronage of the government for giving
it That was the distinct impression the
Presidents conversation made upon nv
mind, and l communicated it to you at the
time. If the President positively denies
having had any such conversation Iregret
it. L may console myself with the retleC-
tion that this is the first time that any state

the President has had occasion before this
to distrust the accuracy of his recollection

The Mayor received yesterday the follow
ingreply from Collector Casey, in response to
his communication touching upon the filthy
condition of the sinks in the CustOmhouse
The letter is quite vigorous and pointed
and will be read with Interest, since Mr..
Casey openly declares his intention to obey
our city laws and sanitary regulations:
CUsTOMHOUsE, NEW ORPHANS !
Collectors Office, July 26, 1872.
Hon. Benz. F Flanders, Mayor Of New Orleans
DEAR SIR Respectfully Y referring to your
letter OF tie twenty-fifth instant, inclOsing
the petition of the residents OF Custom
house street, in the vicinity of the Custom
house building, cOmplaining.Of the ef1ux
from the prlvies into the street, | reply that
your letter was promptly referred to Colonel
j. +. Morse, superintendent of the building
under whose direction the vault was CON
structed, with the request that he would
examine into the matter and take such
steps as might be deemed necessary to re-
medy the evil complained of. l transmit
for your information a letter from him,
from which it appears that, so far as the
etftux is concerned, it is not so bad now as
1t was for many years previous to the
change recently made in the construction
of the privy vaults" and that "if the city
authorities would attend to the proper
cleansing Of the cutters from the levee past
the CustOmhOuse, so as to carry of the of
tensIve accumulatiOns from the levep,
there would be no ground for complaint"
In accordance with the suggestion of
Colonel Morse, / would respectfully request
that authority be granted the government
by the city authorities, to lay pipe from
the CustOmhOuse to the river, for the pur-
pose Of carrying off the ff1ux.
The government officers located near the
CustomhOUse street entrance to the build
ing are certainly as much interested in the
abatement of any nuisance Of the kind as
any person living on the street, remote from
the building, can be.
l would state that the customs officials do
not claim any exemption from the strict
observance of the sanitary regulations of
the city, and that no one authorized to
speak for this office has advanced such an
idea. No complaint has ever reached this
office from the superintendent Of streets of
any disregard of his instructions, and it
appears to me if there was any cause for
complaint that the proper place to seek re-
dress was here. instead of placing the
matter in a wrong light through the press
of the city.
would further add that an officer of the
customs, who prides himself upon the ex-
treme sensitiveness of his nasal organ, has
this day made a careful inspection of that
portion of CustOmhOuse street, and has
failed to discover the " offensive stencil"
complained of.
The inclosure of your letter is returned.
WIth high respect, your Obedient servant,
JAMES F. CASEY, Collector

The Berlin Cnsc.

Since the twelve honest and respectable
gentlemen who last Tuesday evening founC
| Messrs. Berth and CapdevilIe not guilty
have published a card to justify their con
| duct to a community which supposed itsel
outraged by their action, public attention
| has in measure reverted from them tC
another feature of the case just as startling
and perhaps more inexplicable. That is
| this: When the jury returned their verdict
of not guilty, and the jury were polled al
the request of the Acting Attorney General,
Judge Abel Immediately discharged the
| accused from custody, and they are now at
large. Now, Judge Abel is well aware
Of the following facts. On the sixth
day of April, 1869, Pierre Berth, hay
ing been convicted of garrOting and rob
bing an old man near the Old Basin,
was sentenced by Judge Abel himself to
two years Imprisonment in the Parish
Prison. On the fifteenth day of August
1870, on the strength of bogus papers, pre-
pared by one William L. Thompson, attor-
ney at law, which, however, received a
touch Of geuuineness by being approved
and recommended by Judge Abel, Cover
nor WarmOth issued pardon to Bertin,
subject to the approval of the Senate of the
State at its next session. Only few weeks
after the release of Bertin he was arrested
on the ROchereau case. The Governor, dis
covering that he had been imposed upon.
revoked the pardon of Bertin, and as soon
as the Senate convened the act was still
further nullifed by that body refusing to
confirm the pardon. This left no other al
tentative than for Bertin to go back to
prison and serve out the unexpired term of
his sentence, some eight months. This
he was not doing while lying in the Parish
Prison awaiting trial for an unbaiIabIe Of
fense.
Was it not the duty of Judge Abel,
knowing the facts in the case, when the
Jury rendered the verdict acquitting the
accused, to have Immediately remanded
Bertin to the custody of the sheriff to serve
out the unexpired term of his sentence?
And another thing. When Bertin was
arrested by Captain Malone and Special
Officer PecOra at house in rear of the
First District, and over 100000 worth of
Rochereau papers found in his possession,
there was another party present, in consul
tation with Bertin, who was also taken into
custody, and on whose person lcaS found
portion Of the stolen property. This party
has never been indicted, arraigned or tried. |
The. matter. was hushed up. lie was a
member Of the bar

The POstaI Cnrd,

An erroneous impression prevails in
various parts of the country, says the
Washington Patriot, that an ordinary busi-
ness card, with a one cent stamp upon it,
will come within the provisions of the law
IN relation TO the new postal card. Such,
however, Is not the case. The new cards
will, it is understood, be sufficiently elabOr-
ate in design to prevent their being coun-
terfeited, and will be sold by all post
masters at one cent each. An ordinary
open card with writing upon it will require,
as now. a three cent stamp.

Some few weeks ago the Secretary of the
Treasury instructed the collector at New

certified invoices, but to require, where
Goods arrived without certified invoices,
that the entry should be made by appra;s j.
ment.
This order was subsequently modified so
as to allow goods paying purely specific
duty to be entered upon duplicate unCerti-

quently further modified so as to allow
goods paying ad vaIoren or mitted duties

The Shreveport Times, in noticing the re-
cent meeting of the railroad committee of
fifty in New Orleans, says:
A member of the committee Of tifty,
named Leeds, was opposed to taxation; had
seen the property Of the city depreciate
notwithstanding the construction of the
jackson and Opelousas roads. Leeds is
evidently wagOn-trade man; thinks steam
has proved a failure. Poor Leeds he's
hundred years behind his time We are
gratiied to notice that the other gentlemen
OF the committee did not participate in the
narrow views of poor Leeds and that New
Orleans is disposed to do all her crippled
resources viii permit her to do to build the
Shreveport road.
