HUNTING AFTER ARsoN.-Last Sunday
morning the dry goods store of Mr.. Lange,
No l6i Canal street, was burned, and as
the circumstance was rather mysterious,
the underwriters determined to investigate
the case. Mr.. Lange testified that he closed
his store about eight o'clock Saturday even
ing, and that he held the outside door keys;
that there had been 40 fire in the establish
ment 30 far as he knew; that he knew moth
ing of the contiagration until eight o'clock
Sunday morning; that the upper stories of
his store were unoccupied; that not long
ago an attempt was made to blow
open his safe, after which he slept
il the buildings several nights; Re pur
chased the stock of goods from Wallace
& Co, after former proprietor. Sotomay-
er, had failed to pay for them. and that
there had been bad feeling between Soto
MAYER and himself. The stock was worth
between $4,000 and $4,000 and insured
for $4,000 He had heard that Sotomayer
had made threats consequently put the de-
tectives after him. Wallace & Co. testified
that Mr. LANCE had kept his obligations
with them Mr.. Seebold, whose store ad-
Joins the burned one, knew nothing of the
origin of the fire. Other witnesses testified,
but they disclosed nothing interesting. The
inyestiga alton will be resumed next Monday.

The BART ABLE.-Our fine side
wheel packet, Bart Able failed to
reach us on time as usual, having
broken q shaft, the repairing of
which detained her until Sunday
at IL o'clock M. at the wharf at New
Orleans. She, however, got here in
good order with % fine freight on
Monday night and "went on her
way rejoicing" before we were up.
We heard some sneers about "come
to stay" when she failed to get here
by breakfast, on Monday and found
out to our establishment that every
body knew that she was going to
draw out and the Seminole or some
other craft take her place. This
was all on Monday. on Tuesday we
didn't hear a word of:it. Captain
Sinaot tells us that he is going to

Legend Of a lightning Stroke.

al has heard OF the dire disaster
that recently befell the Office Of DR..
Smith when q red-lot tluhderbolt
as large as a hogsl,cad dropped of
the telegraph wires plump upon
tho Doctors table, striking terror
to tho hearts Of the valiant ticket
agent and his friends. Baldwin re
lates the "horrible details'' as fol-
lows: Suddenly there was O crash in
tho office, and the wires leading to
the reading instruments were burn
ed in two, melted aud ian down on
the floor. The lightning had struck
the telegraph wire somewhere a.
bout Dwight, and followed it clear
to Bloomington, leaving the main
line and eliminating in Smiths Of
Ace, where it produced the follow
ing effects: A Chicago drummer
was pitched clear against the oppos-
ite wall, face forward. Tho blow
was so great that it made clear
impression in the solid plaster. An
ordinary man would have been kill
ed at once, but tho drummer had
run Iris face SO often that it did no
damage savea slight abrasion of one
ear. The Doctors clerk was stand
ding by the stove, fronting the in
strument, with parted coat-tail.
He felt q peculiar and novel sensa-
ton, as if q million needles had been
thrust into his heart. An examina-
ton developed a curious phenome-
non.e Over tho telegraph instru.
ment hung q printed table of the
freight and passenger rates on the
l., B. & w. II. Il. BY one of those
singular occurrences, the whole
thing, including the frame and the
signature of j. w. Brown, the Gen
eral PASSENGER Agent of-the road
in Indianapolis. was photographed
on the young mans bosom. 1t is
prefectly distinct and legiblo.
While he maintains a standing posi-
ton it causes the yonng man no
Inconvenience whatever. The
Board of Warehouse Commission
ers heard of this fact, and they i'm.
mediately made him a Secretary.
In the suits about to be brought
against the l., B. & w. r. II. he
will be put on the stand to prove
the signature of John w. Brown.
It is thought his testimony will
clinch the case against the l., & w.
He is q worthy young man, entirely
dependent upon the eYertions of the
Commissioners for his livelihood.
We hope he will be successful. In
tho meantime the electrical fluid,
in travelling about the Office, struck
the private wire leading to Smiths
house saw it going, and taking his
eat rushed out after it. It follow
ed along tho wire, passing one of
the horse-cars drawn by a mule.
Part of the fluid went into the-mule
and tore tho hair off of his tail.
The first thing the passengers knew
they were covered with hair and
the mule went nearly distracted,
braying. One lady saw the hair
and tainted, thinking she had lost
her switch. On learning that it
was the mules switclPshe promptly
recovered. No other damage was
done.-[ Virgins City Enterprise.

anu the WORST possible nominations arc
often made, In the proposed conven-
ton it would be we'll to ebviate this
evil, and we suggest that tho commit
tees, in their addresses calling it, re-
commend that but two delegates be
appointed from each parish, and that
the two be empowered to vote in tho
convention the representative stree;th
Of their respective parishes. .@
AS to the place of holding tho con-
vention, We sussest that Alexandria DO
designated. The people of the coun-
try parishes demand that the conyen-
ton shall not be held in New Orleans.
and if it is summoned to meet there, or
near there, very few of them will send
delegates. This is matter of greater
Importance, and upon which the peo-
pie feel more deeply than perhaps gen.
tlemen in New Orleans haye any idea
of, and we invite them to give it Sc
rious consideration. o
If such a convention as we have de-
scribed is called, and at the place we
have designated; we are satisfied that
great end'can be accomplished, and
that tho best elements OF our popula-
ton will come up squarely and en-
Enthusiastically to the support of its
policy and it's ticket.
In this connection, it is proper to say
that tue professional politicians in this
contest must give way to an entirely
different class of men, or the whole
thing will be dead failure.
