A COLD FLOODED ASSASSINA-
TION.
James Clinton Killed From an Ambush.
The Murderers Not Found.

Yesterday afternoon there were many rumors
current on the streets, about foul assassina-
ton Of young gentleman, residing in the
parish of st. Helena, by unknown parties.
The particulars could not be gathered nor the
foundation of the report traced until late
when with pain we found that the gentleman
assassinated was James Clinton, whose
brother is we'll known lawyer of this city.
From the dispatch it appears that the cold
blooded deed was committed Friday night
last, near Sandy Run, in the parish of st.
Helena. His body was discovered only on
Monday morning by passers-by. lying near the
road in the woods. His throat was cut from
ear to ear, and his body perforated with seve-
ral balls. Who did the deed, it is now impos-
sible to say, but suspicion points to certain
individuals,tfor whom there is diligent search
being made throughout the parish.
The following is the dispatch received:
"CLINroN, La, Dec. 21.
flames Clinton assassinated Friday night,
near Sandy Run, in St. Helena. Shot and
throat cut by parties unknown. He was
found dead this, Monday morning, on road
side in the woods"
Mr. Clinton, as well as all his relatives, are
known Conservatives, and this deed Of blood
may have been by political enemies.

H. NJ. STEAMER BuLLFINCH.
ON HER QUARTERBACK.

ON HER QUARTERBACK.
Our reporter, on Sunday morning, paid q
visit to that splendid little vessel the Bull
finch, at the kind invitation of Capt. Lloyd,
the genial and hospitable commander.
To say that our reporter was pleased with
his brief visit would but lily convey the
lively feelings Of appreciation which he
cherishes toward his hosts.
In showing their kind hospitality to the
BULLETIN, or rather its representative, their
feelings of good fellowship had but one fault,
they went too far, so that when our reporter
would gladly have cried out out like Macduff.
"hold, enough" he forgot to cry it at all,
but enjoyed their good cheer until the Cathe-
dral bells warned him of the feeting hours.
The Bullfnch will leave this port for Its
station at Port Royal, Jamaica, upon Tuesday
or Wednesday, after stay at this port Of o
little more than two months. The Captain
and officers very naturally dislike leaving
New Orleans, for during their stay here they
have made many friends, and are very 10th to
part with them. While We regret the circum-
stances that SO soon sever these jolly friends
from US, yet We sincerely hope their coming
trip below the tropics may prove pleasant
one, and that the balmy breezes that watt
hope to them of "homeward no ~ will also
convey to their hearts pleasant remembrances
of the Crescent City.

ANOTHER OUTRAGE.
A Young Girl Assaulted.

On Saturday evening young German girl
about Is years of age, while walking on Ches-
nut street, vas set upon near the corner Of
Washington, and brutally assaulted by two
negro men. whose intentions it is evident
were the basest.
The young girl is employed in family liv
ing ON Magazine street, in the neighborhood Of
Fourth, and was at the time of the attack on
her way to the Calvary Church opposite the
Washington Cemetery, for the purpose of
taking charge of and accompanying home
little girl, a member of the family by whom
she is engaged, who was in attendance at the
church, practicing for the coming Christmas
festival.
The girl, Immediately the wretches grasped
her, screamed and struggled, and they fed,
and although she turned to grocery store
in the neighborhood. and gave information of
the assault, they had disappeared before
any attempt was made to follow them.
The girl proceeded to the church. and with
her charge returned home, but SO great was
the sheck to her system caused by excitement
and fear, that it was found necessary to
summon . physician.
Outrages of the kind are becoming entirely
too frequent in the Fourth District, and
measures to punish, and terribly punish
the perpetrators, should be taken. 1t is dis

The members of the board signing above,
were appointed for and during the year 1873.
The annual report alleged to have been
made by the board, and referred to in the
evening BULLETIN, Of the 18th inst, was, to
my certain knowledge, never made by the
board.
The report referred to was written by DR.. L.
A Burgess, who had T. NJ. j. Clark, President
of the board, to sign it, as coming from the
board. The first intimation that had of this
report being made was when it was presented
to the Legislature. Knowing the same to be
base fabrication, Immediately asked for q
special committee OF investigation, which will
be seen by reference to the proceedings Of the

Dear Sir-We understand that you are
charged with making bad use Of the Insane
Asylum funds, and that the goods ordered
from us by DR.. Burgess were not delivered.
When DR.. Burgess gave us the list for the
goods he wanted, we remarked to him thst
we would not sell the goods to the Asylum
except for the cash down, but that we are
disposed to sell them to Mr.. Jno F. Ir.
vine for his individual account, to which the
latter agreed to. On 22d October, 1873, we
delivered goods to the amount of 1892 AZ, fol
which Mr. Irvine paid us.
On the 25th November, 1873, we filed the
balance of the order, amounting to $275 Is,
which amounts yet charged to your account.
and received in the Asylum.
Yours respectfully, PICARD & We'll.

FRIENDLESS AND DYING.
"A Well Known Character in Beggary.

Lydia p. Anderson, an old lady of at least
eighty years of age, was brought into the
Charity Hospital last night in dying con-
dition. Our reporter being told that Mrs.
Anderson had been intimately connected with
the dramatic profession in times gone by, and
that she was l.dy of much refinement, paid
visit to her to have the statement corrobor-.
.ted from her gown lips, and, if possible,
ameliorate her sad condition by giving it
publicity.
Mrs. Anderson was found in ward No. 35 of
the hospital, away in far off corner OF the
extensive room, surrounded by the sick.
From appearances one would judge she
was between three score and ten or four score.
Her face wore pinched and haggard ex-
preston, her eyes were sunken deeply in their
sockets. and her frame was wasted much
from suffering.
In reply to the question of our reporter as
to whether it was true that she had been con-
|nected with the dramatic profession, she
stated that, although she had never been an
actress. she was intimately connected with
almost all Of the shining lights Of the stage in
q business capacity.
She had been costumer to the st. Charles,
Academy and other theaters here, and during
her business career became well known to
Booth, jefferson, Forrest Owens, Barrett, Nc
Oullough and others. Sac furthermore stated
that now she was utterly destitute and friend
less, and that she suffers the most acute bodily
pain. Her system is shattered and in her
throat is On onimous rattle, which evidently IS
the precursor of death. She has taken no
substantial food for more than week, and
although we'll taken care Of in that humane
asylum, the Charity Hospital, yet she LACKS
that one essential to mortal in her dark
hour friend.
Left to the mercies Of utter strangers in her
diving hour alone, we hope for the sake ofMrs-
Andersons former bright experience, and for
the sake of humanity, that the dramatic pro-
fession of this city win open their hearts to
this unfortunate lady and render her all the
assistance in their power. Her case is indeed

LEvEE RATS.

COMPLAINTS AGAINST SUGAR THIEVES
Complaints against the levee thieves that
ply their trade in and around the sugar sheds
from brokers and dealers are many and fire.
quent, and there is general understanding
and general allegation that the police do
not give enough of their valuable attention
to the matter, and that the thieves, SO far as
the peelers are concerned, have nothing to
fear, and can grow rich in their profession
without molestation from the guardians of
the peace.
There can be no doubt of the fact that there
is Just cause Of complaint, and mayhap good
foundation for the charges Of neglect against
the police, but the police contend and that
they are right, proceedings before the police
courts show-that the trouble is greatly at
tributable to, and the fault laid at their door,
is largely the result of the earelessness Of
those most interested in the breaking up Of
the gangs Of thieves. They say that arrests
have been made, not only ut the sugar land
ing, but at other portions of the levee at the
instance of merchants, and that when the
accused has been brought before the court
the merchant has failed to appear to prose-
cute. and that for want of evidence the offend
ing parties are discharged.
A little more vigilance on the part Of the
police, and little more attention ON the part
of merchants and others doing business on
the levee to the prosecution Of cases, would
sosn end all causes of complaint.
