New York and Brashear.

We copy the following from the Attaka-
pas Register, of August 2s:
q. The steamship Hutchinson, of Morgan 8
New York and Brasbear line, sailed from
New York on the fourteenth of this mosth,
and arrived here safely on the night of the
twenty fourth. This, considering the large
cargo of freight she carried and the bad
weather on the way, was very quick trip.
The Hutchinson had no trouble in securing
a full load of freight, bringing out nearly
1000 tOns-350 tons being for New Orleans
and the balance for Galveston, Indianola,
Brazos and Aransas Bay.
To show the thorough system that Mr..
Morgan has, and the unequaled facilities for
transferring freight on his wharves here, we
can point to the 1act that the pioneer of the
new line unloaded her freight, reloaded
with still larger cargo of cotton, hides,
wool, NOES, etc., took on her coal and was
off to sea on her return trip to New York in
less than thirty six hours, and all this with
out any interference or charges on the part
of harbor masters, port wardens or other
officials. This 10 commerce unrestricted.
With such start we confidently expect to
see this the latest of Mr.. Morgan's enter
prises . grea success, bringing not only
profit to him, but beneftting and improving
all this section of our State, a. well - our
neighbors Of Texas.

Consolidation of the Towboat Companies


After one year struggle by both the
Ocean hue and the association, at large
outlay by the former and a heavy loss to
the latter, the lack of generosity of the
patrons of. either line in insisting upon go
low rate of towage that neither line could
live, has obliged them 10 consolidate.
When the Ocean line lett the association,
one year ago. they did it in good faith, and
for the purpose of making the towage up
and down the river within the reach of all
vessels that might arrive at the bar-.hat
is, the towage was to be sufficiently low to
leave margin over Mobile or Galveston,
the lighterage at the latter ports being the
offset of towage here. In proof of all these
the Ocean Line built ID telegraph, erected
stations, wharves, ETC., equal to those
owned by the association, and when com
pleted placed their Iates, which had been
81 25 per ton, to seventy-fve cents uo
and down. This reduction of nearly one
half was no doubt satisfactory to some, but
the majority of the shipmasters traded back
and forth from one line to the other unit il
some of them got their ships towed in and
out for forty five cent, per tou-a rate that
would not pay the boats crew list
to say nothing of fuel, and the thousands of
| other expenses. And besides this, after the
rate had been reduced much thinner than
Judge Kelley's cockt all, and neither line
would 90 dollar less, the majority of the
ships were given to the association, aud the
Ocean Line was left to reimburse itself for
it's outlay and patriotism from the pockets
of its stockholders.
AS the matter stands, no one can blame
either line for coming together. There was
no trickery or job in their separation, as
has been we'll proven. They have both lost
money, and found their patrons even more
capricious than they; and if the shipmaster
would insist upon rate far below living
one, they had no reason to suppose that
they could long keep them apart.
The rate to be charged hereafter has not
been officially announced, but it is under
stood from good authority that it will be 81
per ton up and down. Some of the ship
M, ters in port yesterday expressed them
selves satisfied at that rate We trust, for
the benefit of all concerned, that it will not
be placed at a higher figure.

An Amateurs Tragedy,
At clam bake given by Congressman
Odell, other Congressman and prominent
persons were present. young Italian
named Viann. of the Italian minister's
suite, OF a prominent family in Rome, COM
mitted suicide under very singular circum-
stances. DR.. Doremus, one of the guests,
amounted that Mr.. Vianni, who possessed
very remarkable dramatic talent, would
favor the company with an Italian
recitation in imitation of Rachel. The
young man then took his position
in the centre of the group and
began his recitation. His voice was clear
and well controlled, bis gestieulation highly
dramatic, his limbs seemed to quiver with
passion, while the expression Of his face
was aItling. Once he interrupted him
self, and turning to Senator John A. King,
he said You understand Italian" He then
resumed, and finished with the exclamation,
In Italian: God, who judges all, will Judge
this" He then took pistol from the outer
pocket of his coat, and placing it to his
temple, tired. He fell, partly on his face, and
lay perfectly motiOnless. The spectators ex-
claimed, ..Wonderfu,r and the applause
commenced, when Doremus rushed forward
exclaiming, "Gieat God, gentlemen, he is
killed" Many at first thought this apart
Of the entertainment, .bnt on lifting the
body the horrible truth became manifest.
DR.. Ellis probed the wound and pronounced
the case hopeless. Vianui lived half an
hour, but never spoke. No cause was as
signed for the terrible act.
Suit for Unpaid Duties.
Suit was commenced yesterday in the
district court against the sureties of Mer-
rick, Price & Co, to recover $4,000, al
legged due goods for unpaid duties. The

and liquors, and gave warehouse bonds in

have discontinued business, and the mem

Sale of the Ship Waterloo.

The British ship Waterloo was sold at
auction Saturday, at the St. Charles Ex
change, by Messrs. Nash g. Hodgson.
The Waterloo, it will be remembered, was
considerably damaged many months age
while on the bar at Pass-apOutre, bound
out. After getting off she was brought to
the city, her cargo reshipped on the ship
Baden, and the WaterloI condemned.
The bidding was spirited and promiscuous
until the sum of $4,000 was reached, when
all dropped out but Joseph Cooper, Esq,
and gentleman reported to be represent
ing Lawrence, Giles g. Co., of New York.
She was finally knocked down to the latter
at $l7 500, bringing what the knowing ones
said was good price.

perior success in the prevention and cure of

mineral anti-febrile remedies do not effect
with certainty, and their continued use en-
