NEW EETERPRIZES.

1t is gratifying to note the movements
of our mechanics and workingmen to-
ward cooperative effort. Having re-
Gently established, on a firm basis, two
building and loan associations, they are
now engaged in the formation of the
Mechanics and Manufacturers Mutual
Aid association, for the purpose Of pro-
noting the general and individual in
terests and welfare Of those classes in
Memphis. Several meetings have been
held, and with the best results, nearly
all the respectable and reputable work
ingmen of the city having signified
their intention TO join the association,
and sustain and support it in every way
possible to them. We are glad TO be
able to note this movement, and bid our
co-laborers GOd-speed. Our chief re-
lance is in the mechanics, manufacture
ers and laborers of the country.

The captain can give no explanation of
the cause of the disaster, except miscal-
culation of the current and the vessels
speed.
A great number of people are visiting
the wreck. The agents of the White
Star line while going to the Atlantic
from New York, had narrow escape
last night. The train which they were
on came in collision with freight train,
killing the engineer and baggage-master
of the passenger train.
Every effort has been made to recover
the following bodies: C.. M. Fisher and
wife, of Vermont; w. ]. She at and wife,
son and daughter, of Nevada; Henry l..
Wellington, of Boston; Mrs. Merrett,
Miss Scryser and Mr.. Kruger, of New
York; Miss Brodie and Miss Barker, of
Chicago; Mr.. Brendley, Mrs. Davidson
and daughter, of England, with those
reported this morning as recovered.
This completes the list of cabin passen-
gers lost.
Captain Williams and assistants
searched the islands around the wreck
thoroughly last night, and picked out
from the many bodies brought ashore
those about whom friends had tele-
graphed The ladies reported recovered
this morning have been dressed and
placed in metallic coffins, and await the
arrival of friends and relatives to take
them IN charge. As it is thought that
the ladies hardly remain in a con-
dition to be examined, the coffins
have been sealed. Another trip will
be made to the wreck tomorrow. The
stewards and men acquainted with the
passengers have been left at Prospect to
take charge of the bodies as they are
washed ashore. John Brundley was
lost; his name was put in the list of
saved by mistake, one of the passengers
having mistaken another person for
him. 1t is now proposed to bring all
the bodies to this city and bury them to-
gether in the public cemetery, and erect
a monument over them. The city coun-
ell, ON application of the Provincial
government, resolved this afternoon to
place lot in the cemetery at the dis
posal of the friends Of the dead.
The collector of customs will COM
mence the investigation tomorrow
morning. Many Of the fishing families
at Prospect expended all the provisions
they had, to feed the shipwrecked pas
sengers and crews, and are now in want
themselves.

OUR BANKS.

Taking q rapid glance back at the sea-
son since its commencement, we hnd
events that have proved very unpleas-
ant obstacles to commerce in thispart of
the country. The epizootic, for instance,
brought trade to an absolute standstill,
from the impossibility of moving mer-
chandise to river banks or railroad de-
pots. A stern, severe, and unusually
long winter, bound up streams and
blocked railways with snow. Worse
than all, the cotton crop proved to be be-
low the average in quality. The bales
are more numerous than last year, but
they have not individually the
same value. The stringency of
money, after the cotton season
opened, became immense; few will fail to
remember the tight times of the first of
November and the first of December. At
ter a little ease, the eloseness is again
giving us trouble. Taking the sum Of
these obstacles and calamities, our busl-
ness community has had TO sustain no
little pressure upon its means, and no
light obstacles to its progress. For de-
liverance from, and recuperation after
these disastrous influences, as they arose
one by one, gratitude in plenteous meas
ure is due to the various banks of the
city. Those institutions strained every
nerve, to find the vast sums which were
required to carry on the large business
that succeeded the cOtton-picking. But
their principal claim to praise, prOba-
bly,, lay in the vigilance and
prudence that guided the disposal OF the
amounts that went through their hands.
To give accommodation here and there,
without discrimination, would have
done no good. To have allowed the
money freely TO flow whenever applied
for, as long as it would last, would only
have aggravated the evil. Aid was CIV
en- in proportion to the claims for it,
and only as far as prudence justified.
The object kept in view was not to save
those who found themselves straighten-
ed, so much as to help them to save
themselves. The aid was extended in
4 way to iucite to eXertien, not to do
away with the necessity for it. The as
sistance given to commerce during the
present business season has been great; |
that its efficacy was decided, is owing to
the discretion and wisdom which has
presided over its distribution, and to the |
courage that hesitated not to say, "NO,"
when "no' was the only word consist |
ent with sound business policy.

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
A Serious Accident Caused by Culpable
CarelessUess-ParticUlars.

ST. LOUIS, April At appears that
the railroad accident which occurred at
French village yesterday afternoon was
Oecasioned by the culpable carelessness
Of the conductor of construction train.
The passenger train was just about to
take a side track to let a freight train
pass, when the conductor of a train
which had been passed by the passenger
train at a dirt pile but a few
minutes before, and its conductor must
have known of its proximity. 1t came
laundering round a curve at high speed,
and plunged into the rear of the pas
.senger coach. The conductor of the
passenger train saw the construction
train coming, and cried out to the pas
sengers to jump for their lives. Many
did 50, but before all could escape the
engine Of the dirt train entered the
coash, and, being smashed by the col
lisiOn, the passenger cur was imme-
diately filled with steam, and q number
of the passengers were more or less
sscalded. Mrs. John b. Lusk, or Luke,
Of Morgan county, while in the act of
jumping from the train was caught be-
tween the cars and crushed to death.
Her husband, with an infant i'm his
arms, succeeded in reaching the plat

be Jas. II. Waits, of Chester, IllinGis,
and q member Of the Illinois legislature
was caught between the platform of the
rear car and the engine of the dirt train
and torn to pieces. A young daughter
Of Mrs. Lufiin, Of McLeansbOrough, re-
ceived a jet of steam full in the face
and was horribly scalded about the head
and upper part of the body. Her eyes
were put out, and it is thought that she
cannot survive. Mrs. Stebbins, of Mil
gaukee, was severely cut and bruised
about the head, and several other pas
sengers were more or less injured. The
engineer Of the train, Michael Tanning,
fed as soon as he saw the result of his
carelessness. Coroner Ryan held an in
quest on the bodies Of the three killed
to-day, and the jury, after examining
most of the employees of the three trains,
several passengers and officers of the
road, returned a verdict that the
conductor of the train, Michael Ward,
and engineer flaming Of the eonstrue-
tiOn train were grossly cuipably neg
ligent in starting ahead of time and run.
ming at too great speed. Also censures
the conductor of the passenger train for
not tagging the construction train, and
the officers Of the road for not informing
the conductors of the freight train OF the
discontinuance of certain trains, thereby
OBTAINING his train and Occasioning the
accident.
John Tanning, engineer on the con-
stIuctiOn train, was arrested to-day, and
sent TO the Jail at Bellevilie. Efforts are
being made TO find Ward, the conductor
Of the train. So far he has eluded the
officers.

his niece, Maude Merrill, in house of
ill fame in New York q short time ago,
was called yesterday. The counsel for
the prisoner asked for the postponement
of the trial till a commission, to be ap-
pointed, has taken a testimony in Ire
land relative to the insanity of Bleak
ley's father. The case goes over till
Monday. During the argument of the
counsel for Bleakley he said he was

eide, when the district attorney aston
ished the court by stating that he had
never heard of the case.

ESTABLISHED 1S4O-

a complete answer to say that the title
embraces all that the subject matter of
the act itself refers to as a necessa-
ry consequence of the release of the
railroad companies from the tax. The
bill imposes a general tax of three mills
on the dollar.
Second-This is not proposition to
loan the credit of the State. This was
done by the act of 1865. 1t is not neces-
sary for the people to vote upon the
question of taxation, this power having
been lodged by the constitution with
the legislature.
Third-As to this objection, the bill
does not propose to assume the debt of
any corporation the State already owes
the bonds absolutely. The railroad COM
panies are permitted by the law author
iZing the issue of the bonds, to pay the
State in bonds, or in coupons, or in
money. And if in bonds and coupons,
why not liQuidate the obligations in
stock, which to-day is worth more than
the bonds or coupons? As to the
alleged Indebtedness of the Memphis
anu l1lltlc INOCk TdltfOdu COlupdu Ol
one hundred and forty thousand dollars
TO the State. The mortgage, to secure
this sum was never recorded. A subse-
quent mortgage having been created
and recorded, under which the road has
recently been sold, and the State lien
has been entire cut off. This is the
written opinion of the most eminent
Democratic lawyers of Little Rock.
Fourth" That the State will become
liable for double the amount of her
stock.n 1t is sufficient answer to say
that every railroad company in the
State which has drawn bonds exists I'M
der charters granted prior to the consti-
tuition of 1868. Hence its provisions are
not applicable to these companies. The
stock to be issued to the State under this
law being fully paid, and by the express
terms of the law not subject to
assessment, fully relieves the State from
all possibility of further obligation.
There is no clause in the constitution
requiring bill to be read in the COM
mittee of the whole. The bill was
printed, read on three separate days,
and after a full discussion, passed the
house strictly in accordance with the
constitutional requirements.

A disgraceful fight took place yester-
day morning in the lobby of the New
Jersey legislative hall. In debate NJ.
Carse called James NJ. Scovill per-
jured man and scoundrel, and when Mr..
Cole and John Hood, members, met
this morning they engaged in 8 war of
words. Scovill came up, and mixing in
the quarrel, Cole called him liar, and
was Immediately knocked down by Sco-
WILL The speaker ordered all the doors
to be closed, but before it was done
Carse rushed into the fight, and Scovill
knocked him down also, and he was
badly punished. 1t is said that while he
was down the mayor of Trenton inter-
posed and prevailed upon Scovill to
leave the state, house, and the fight end
ed. Coles face was much disfigured.
The affair grew out of tine opposition Of
ScoviIl to the bill affecting the DISPOSE
tiOn of some property now in the courts.
Soon after the fight both houses ad-
journed sine die,
