THE THIRD AVENUE BANK

An expert has been examining the books OF the Third
Avenue Savings Bank. He stated yesterday that he
had discovered, from the minutes OF meetings of the
Board OF Trustees that deficiency known to
exist ana mentioned in the minutes, to the ex-
OF $225 000 in 1872 The bond for $176 900 given
by the trustees at that time to make up the deficiency
cannot either be for payment recovered
by process OF law until the year 1883 The chances,
therefore, of the depositors getting any very extern
sive dividends most remote.

Ex-Governor WELLs.-This gen.
tleman arrived here yesterday from
his home in Rapides Parish. It will
be recollected that he left here imme-
diately after the adjournment of the
Returning Board, having been called
home in consequence of the sickness
of his wife. The friends of Governor
Wells will be gratifed to hear of his
safe return. He is now on his way to
Washington, to give evidence in re-
gard to the condition of affairs in
Northern louisiana, dating as far
back as last spring, when the White
League commenced to organize No
man is better posted in regard to the
present disturbed political coddition
of Louisiana than Governor Wells,
and for that reason his evidence
must have great weight in determi1n,
ing what course is necessary to ar.
rive at a proper manner of putting
an end to the disturbances.-[N. O.

CORONER SHADBURNE.

This so-called officer visited our
sanctum since our last issue. He
processes to be acting under his COM
mission of ~. The Coroner of this
Parish, whoever he may be, is the
right person to act as Sheriff since
the vacancy commenced, that is since
the 4th inst, but how long is that to
last? 1t would be 'cute arrange
ment for the persons returned as
Sheriff and Coroner by the Returning
Board to keep their new Commits
sions in their pockets, let Shadburne
keep in under pretence of acting un-
der his old commission, appoint
Clements Deputy Coroner, and run
the machine with that team. And
that this is not far from correct
guess of the scheme is evident from
the fact that Shadburne has already
appointed Clements Deputy Coroner,
whether he has accepted that appoint
ment can be known from himself.
Mr.. Shadburne's term has an end
to it, we suppose, and we would like
the lawyers to say if it does not end
on the Oath Of this month"; The
election law compels the governor to
issue Commissions within thirty days
after the result is officially ascer-
tanned. The Returning Board pro-
mulgated the Rapides election on the
oath of December. Mr.. Shadburne's
old term ends at the latest on the
Oath Of this month, and on that day
he should vacate. The Caucasian
has struck the right note, that we
should have Paul or none, but makes
a broad blunder in the statement that
the Coroner is filling a vacancy occa-
stoned by Mr.. Clements refusal to
qualify. Mr.. Clements has had no
chance to qualify. He has not re-
ceived his commission, according to
his own statement, and could not
qualify until he did. The vacancy
that the Coroner is filling is occa-
stoned by De Lacey's sudden termi-
nation of his Sheriff's office on the
4th., when he went into the Legisla-
ture. If De Lacey had not been a
candidate for another place than
the Sheriffalty, or had not availed
himself of the Returning Boards
fraud, he would still be Sheriff hold
ing over. But his term must end
sometime, and if it don't end on the
Oath of this month, we would like to
know when it does.

AS REPORTED By FERGUSON & scHNACE
Our Packet.

The Bart. Able passed up on her
second trip Of the season Tuesday
morning, full "a hours behind time.
Fogs and horrid weather have caused
this detention on her part, but with
half chance there will be no trouble
in her coming to regular time next
Monday morning. We again ex-
press the wish and opinion that our
people as whole, will stick to Cap
tain Sinnott and his really magnif-
cent boat and give her the lions
share Of their business No trade,
outside of the Vicksburg one, can
boast of such steamboat and then
side-wheeler at that. We could write
columns to convince our people that
it is to their interest to cling with
love and fervor to the Bart. Able and
her enterprising owners, but for the
present we trust this hint will &C.
complish the good we intend.

III we be not mistaken in our
historical memory it was Armand
Richelieu, Frances grand and great
Cardinal and Statesman, who used to
remark that good roads and good
barber shops were the finger boards
Of civilization. Be that as it may,
we are sure could he or any of his
believers visit Rapides and Alexan-
dria, he would be puzzled over his
regret at the horrid fix of one of his
fancies, and just as much rejoiced at
the counter fix, and extra fine one at
that, Of his luxurious love. Tout
ceci comes to us fresh and wildly
the second part of it, when we are
permitted to announce that Leon
Dessin's Saloon, at the Exchange Ho-
tel, is toWiours lie meme, and the pub
lie appreciates what the old Cardinal
Illuminated, and what we now put in

PINcHBECK.-This mulatto favor
lite of the radicals was elected U. S.
Senator by the Rump Legislature
last week. Whatever chances he hal
Of admission is completely destroyed
by that, because it is an admission
that his previous election was invalid,
and it is only by virtue of that cleo
tion of two years ago that he can be
admitted. Contemptuous as the
Senate majority has shown itself to
be of right when partizan interests
are involved, not even Morton's au-
dacity would pretend that the Rump
Legislature by Sheridan's bayonets
can do any legal act.

REPORT OF the COMMITTEE

We have barely space and time,
this issue Of the Democrat, to give
publicity to the fact that the Con-
gressional Committee, composed OF
two Republicans and one Democrat
have reported fayorably to our just
claims and rights. Annexed We give
two sentences of the Report, which
is compendium Of the whole, as we
understand it after a very hasty
glance at the whole report:
The result was that in Nov, 1874,
the people of the State of Louisiana
did fairly have a free, reaceable and
fullregistration and election, inwhich
a clear Conservative majority " 8
elected to the lower House of the Leg
islature, of which majority the Con;
servatives were deprived By the IN
just, illegal and arbitrary acsion = Oh
the Returning Board. , sss s IS Is !.
II 49, =
Without now referring to other in
stances we are constrained to declare
that the action Of the Returning
Board, on the whole, was arbitrary,
unjust, and In our opinion illegaa, sna
that this arbitrary, unjust and Illegal
action alone prevented the return by
the Board of a majority of Conserva-
tive members to the lower House.
Further the Committee take Ra-
pides as speciality in the fraud
Line, and dilate on it strongly and
harshly, handling Mat. Wells with
out gloves and laying the Rapides
part of the fraud squarely on him
and his tricky act. '"s H'o@. .a.'...i
