Loss of Steamer Amite.
No Lives Lost.

On Wednesday, the 18th inst, at about
midnight, the steamer Amite, Capt. Dor
nelly, and the Reliance. Capt. Read, the
Amite bound hence for Pensacola and the
came in collision near the bridge of the New
Orleans, Mobile and Texas Railroad. The
Reliance struck the Amite amidships on the
port side, cutting her to the waters edge
causing her to sink in few minutes. The
Amite had five passengers, all of whom'
together with her officers and crew, were
rescued by the Reliance.
The captain, first officer, engineer and
brought to the city by the Reliance.
The Amite lies in about 9 feet of water
and hopes are entertained of raising her in
a few days.
The cause of the disaster, as reported to
US by the officers of the Reliance, was owing
to misunderstanding between the pilots
of the boats in regard to the signals, whic h
were promptly sounded by both.
The Reliance sustained no material
damage. The Amite was not insured, and
was valued at about $500.
Her cargo was valuable one, and con-
sisted of the following items:
1000 sacks corn, 90 sacks oats, SO bags coffee
100 casks bacon, 40 bbls pork, 100 bbls lime,
80 bbls whisky, 44O bbls flour. 10 bales hay,
5000 bricks, 315 packages merchandise.

A novelty has been introduced at Partisan
dinner tables which we might copy with ad-
vantage. This is to have on the back Of the
menu short biographical notice Of the per
sons who compose the company. This is a
very good idea, for there can be no one who
has not undergone the discomfort of saying
the wrong thing to the wrong person-laugh-
ing at "the man with the teeth" to his wife,
and being exceedingly facetious about "the
lady with the shoulders" to her son. In the
"Life Of Dickens" there are two instances Of
this-in one of which Dickens talked to a
young lady whom he took down to dinner
about the Bishop of Durbam's nepotism in
the matter of Mr.. Cheese, and found ont
afterward that she was Mrs. Cheese in the
other he expatiated to the member from
Marylebone, Lord Fernoy, generally con-
ceiving him to be an Irish member, on the
contemplate character Of the Marylebont
constituency and Narylebone representa-.
ton. Now, by the aid Of the Geographically
indorsed mess, any oostvetemps Of this kind
would Be avoided.

KELLOGG NAILED.
He Falsi6es the Record.

Whenever it comes to a question of vera
city between Kellogg and any body else,
any body else is sure to win. Instance :
Yesterday Senator West rose on the floor of
the Senate and read dispatch from w. P.
Kellogg, contradicting the statement that
his Legislature had passed an act repeating
the act which repealed the infamous clauses
of the election law.
Now there was not word of truth in
that dispatch as will readily appear if w.
?. Kellogg will have published his Senate
bill number 467, which passed both
branches Of the Legislature, subsequent
to the passage of bill No. 46e which
repealed the old election law. Let us have
this bill, Mr.. Kellogg. The matter has
come to a question of fact, and is lifted fal
out of the realm of mere assertion.
We insist upon the publication Of those
bills and if a single Senator in Congress car
reconcile it with his conscience to utter 6
word in defense of Kellogg after that dis
patch Of his shall be proven false, then
well then such Senator is no better thar
Kellogg himself. We can say nothing worse

A FRIEND INDEED.
A Word for the Bulletin.

The subjoined letter, from an esteemed
friend and patriotic gentleman, we publish
with feelings OF pardonable pride, as an
evidence that the course of the Bulletin has
met with the appreciation Of our citizens,
and as an assurance that we will soon be
enabled to establish the paper upon a firm
and lasting basis, basis which will enable
MS to compete, as to Geographic news, etc,
with the oldest journals in our city.
So far the labOrs of the manager and edi-
tors of the Bulletin have not only been
gratuitous, but they have been at great
personal sacrifices of time and money. All
we ask or expect is that the great mass of
the comm unity who sympathise with and
indorse the efforts we have made, and shall
continue to make, will signify their appre-
citation by their material support. Our
terms of advertising are lower than those OF
any other paper published in this city, while
our circulation is quite equal to two, a,
least, of the old established newspapers.
Our evening edition is more than double
that of either the Picayune or Times. and
our morning circulation is rapidly increas-
ing.
If tie thousands who wish us we'll will
come forward now to our support, the vic.
tory will be won.
New ORLEANS April l6, 1s14.
D. C. Byerly. Manager New Orleans Bulletin:
| The honest and industrious citizens OF
| New Orleans and Of Louisiana owe the Bull
| letin debt of gratitude which they can
never repay, for the fearless and manly
stand it has taken in their behalf.
The Picayune had apparently followed the
example of the Times and deserted to the
enemy, leaving an unfortunate, tax ridden
and impoverished people without a single
English journal in the capital OF the State,
to defend their cause and protest against
the wrongs and insults heaped upon them by
as rapacious and bare-faced set of plum
derers as ever invested or disgraced any
| civilized country.
Being impressed with the course your
| journal is pursuing in exposing corruption
| in all quarters, and knowing full well that
ne wspapers cannot live on the good wishes
of friends-paper, labor and brains cost
money! deem it my duty, as citizen OF
Louisiana who would see her redeemed fl ON
her present lamentable condition., to render
such material aid as my limited means will
| allow. Herewith enclose yon 500. which
may be Of some service, and which will,
| trnst, induce the merchants and business
men of New Orleans to respond rs their cir
! cumstances may admit, to sustain You III
your landable enterprise.
| Very sincerely, H. I. LAwLER.

BEHIND THE SCENES.
One of Kellogg's Schemes Frustrated.
How a Tax Collector Was Not Re-
moved.

There have recently transpred within the
circle of Radical politicians some interesting
episodes the knowledge of which has been
confined to comparatively few people. We
will throw the Bulletins calcium light on
one little matter which is of interest to the
general public. Some few days ago we
called upon Clinton and Kellogg to produce
the report of the Legislative Committee ap-
pointed to examine the accounts of the
Auditor. and limited pretty strongly at de-
felt in the Auditors accounts, which would
be exposed thereby. The call was UNDECIDED,
and as yet, no report has been forthcoming
But let us take peep behind the scenes.
Harris Vas the chairman of the Senate Com
mittee to examine into the Auditors ac-
counts, and it happens that he has brother
who is tax-collector of the Second District.
1t appears that Pinchback appointed Hart
Harris to the relationship, and that up
to a recent period the utmost good feeling
prevailed between them. For some reason.
however, not very difficult to imagine,
Pinch. and his collector fell out and the
dusky statesman demanded of Mr.. Kellogg
the removal of Harris, and the appointment
Of another friend in whose fidelity he could
more implicitly rely.
To this demand William lent an attentive
upon the departure of Pinch. retired behind
his little screen and connected little plan
of his own. This was to appoint his friend
General A. S. Badger, Superintendent of
Police to the Office of tie Second District
Collectorshp, vice Harris to be removed,
and to make his young military friend, Col.
T. S. De Klyne, Deputy United States Mar
shall, Superintendent of Police in the place
of General Badger.
This slate was pretty well determined
upon, and was in fact given out by the
henchmen of the party, but the sudden calls
in the Bulletin for that smothered report
caused CONSERVATION in camp, and all the
plans which w. P. had so deceitfully and
cunningly laid.
If Harris should be turned ont it might oe
regarded as a certainty that his brother the
Senator would suddenly lose all interest in
supporting the usurpation, and might even
hurry up that report which the people are
becoming more and more anxious to see. The
bare possibility of such q catastrophe caused
Clinton and Kellogg to sicken and turn pale.
| Harris suddenly became quite an import
ant persona. 9, and his removal was not to
he seriously entertained for a moment. So
Pinch. was disappointed, as he would have
been in any event. and VIM. P. was quite
panied that his little game should have been
frustrated. DeKlyne's appointment as SUI
perlntendent of Police would have been an
excellent stroke of policy, for it would have
strengthened the de factO with Boss Packard
and have given him commander OF his
metropolitan army in whom he could have
relied.

MIXED RELATIONS.

1t is reported that there is family in
this city who were a day or so ago reunited,
husband and wife, after being separated
for some time under very singular circum-
stances, indicative of a state OF morality
decidedly "loose." A certain married man,
living in the southern portion of the city,
some time since eloped with certain
named woman who lived near To console
himself, the husband left alone took the
other mans deserted wife home to cook his
dinners for him, etc. After some months
the runaway husband returned to visit
Paterson, and the first one he met was the
man whose wife he had taken. 1t was then
and there mutually agreed that the ex-
change of wives be a permanent agree
ment, all hands seeming to be pleased with
the new order of things.
So the first mentioned man returned with
the good news to Camden to tell his new
partner about it, when to his horror he found
that she had elOped with another man. This
was worse than ever. He returned to Pater-
son mourning the loss of all his wives, when
he was met with open arms by his own
agreed to live together again. And to make
the matter all right, what should happen in
two or three days but the arrival of the
other mans wife begging to be taken back
again, the man with whom she had eloped
to Camden having eloped from her. And SO
they are all now living together as they
originally were in legitimate marriage. 1T
is about as mixed up a case as we ever heard
and what is the more strange about it is
that it is all true, and the parties are now
living in this city, the reunion referred to
having taken place only week or so since

A Nauty philadelphia Girl

A young girl of Philadelphia, who is now
on her travels, went to Westminster and
condescended to admire the great Abbey.
With admiration came the desire of posses
sion. The whole abbey was too large to be
removed, SO she quietly took penknife
from her pocket and cut off piece of the
chair of Edmund the Confessor She was
arrested, and as she was very pretty, they
let her off with S500-the price would have
been higher if she had been palmer. Not
content with this, she serenely journeyed
to Dresden. in search of new worlds to
conquer. While visiting church there she
attempted to possess herself of some flowers
from shrine. In pulling them off she over
turned the image of the Virgin, to the in
finite horror of the custOdians of the church.
For this pleasing freak her father paid
$500. Her beauty probably made the fine
small on this occasion also; but fancy the
panic in that family if she had red hair
and freckles! And if she had been for
bidding female of uncertain age, dare not
dwell on the financial crisis that must GER
tainly have ensued.-Coresponden Boston

THE OVERFLOW.
Memphis Avalanche, 14th. ]

There are no new levee breaks any where
above the mouth of White River. At Ter
rene, a landing place opposite the mouth,
there is a small strip of dry land. and water
covers everything else, far and near. There
are several points seriously threatened by
the caving banks tearing off salients OF
the levees. This is especially the case at
Benefits and Harklerode's Landings and
Commerce Bend, where a cutoff is threat
ened, and all Of these places are less than
fifty miles below this port.
Below the mouth Of White River the
situation is more alarming, especially on
the Arkansas side, a large share OF ChicOt
county and the county further down being
under water, while the last rise from the
Arkansas, already more than fifteen feet at
Little Rock, is sending still greater flood
over that section.
Backwater extends fifty miles or more
up the Arkansas, and prevents planters OF
that region from doing a stroke of work
toward putting in their spring crops Stock
in many places are huddled together on
mounds and rude platforms, where, hall
starved. they patiently await an abatement
of the food, which the latest news from the
Ohio and its tributaries fail to encourage.
On the Mississippi side the breaks neal
Bolivar Landing still remain open as before
and numerous cotton farms near them are
submerged.
At Greenville the banks are caving consid
erably, and several buildings have already
been encroached upon. A saw mill below
the town has recently been abandoned, be-
cause the edge of the bank got too close fol
comfort.
