where To-, cN-,o.diers of both North and

flowers, went through the ceremony of
surying the hatchet on each side Scarce
is less noticeable too, was the invita-

To- those two distinguished Confederate
leaders. Generals FORREST and PILLOW,

their dead. and the cordial acceptance Of
tA" same. Even Secretary BRIsTow 81
member of General GRANTS Cabinet, in

help from joining in with the prevailing
sentiment, and while highly eulogrzin-

glowing tribute to the valor and consci-

STEAMBOAT DISASTER.

Saturday evening the regular weekly packet
C. H. Durfee, bound for Grand Ecore, which
left her landing at the head Of Customhouse
street, at P NJ, and when about thirteen
miles up the river, exploded the steam pipe
of her starboard engine. The steamer was
oaded down with freight, had great many
passengers and detachment Of United States
soldiers on board.
The escaping steam killed the pastry cook,
who was asleep in his bunk close to the en-
CINE. The hot water scalded five or six OF
the crew and deck passengers, among whom
were three L nited States soldiers.
The greatest excitement prevailed for few
moments after the explosion, and some of the
crew sought safety by jumping into the river,
and were drowned.
The men scalded were brought to this city
and taken to the Charity Hospital, where their
injuries were examined and found to be slight.
The steamboat Durfee transferred her freight
and passengers to the steamer Bonnie Lee,
which came up behind her shortly after the
accident occurred and returned to this city at
, o'clock Sunday.

THE BANK OF AMERICA.
Deposition Sequesters Checks
Deposited for Collection.

james A. Vigneaud, resident of this city,
has filed suit in the Superior District Court,
representing that he was depositor in the
Bank of America. and that he deposited
therein certain checks check drawn by
A. villermain on Peoples Bank for SIS !;
another, by Dymond Il Gardes, for S437 on
National Bank another. by Schneider
Zuberbier, on Canal Bank, for 1927 AZ !;
another, by E. Gainet, on Branch of State
National, for s23 another, by Jas. II. Laws
& Co., for $40 81, on Louisiana National
Bank another, by John Glynn, on Union
National for s6O7 73-all payable to petit
toners order
The petition further represents that at the
time said checks were deposited for collection,
the President, directors and managing agents
we'll knew the condition of the said bank, and
that it was in a state of hopeless insolvency
and on the verge of failure, and that they con-
cealed from petitioner the real condition OF
the institution and received said checks, pre-.
tending they would collect them for the bene.
Fl of petitioner, whereas they intended them
for their own use and benefit.
A writ of sequestration was prayed for com
handing the Sheriff to seize the several checks
named,

portanee of fostering the commerce between
the Central American and the United States,

Is 1t a Forgery !
An Interesting Question Before the
Second District Court.

OF late there seems to be quite an epidemic
of succession cases before Judge Tissot, in
which are involved questions OF forgery OF
notes, certificates, ETC. In the Halpln
case resort was had to the microscope
and the scrutiny of witnesses to show the
forgery of document, and now we have
another in the succession of Philip Drumm,
where experts are called upon to testify. 1t
appears the executor of the above succession
refused to pay the following note when pre-
scented, and the owner filed an opposition to
the account:
NRw ORLEANS, November 2. 1872.
s5225.
Five years after date, promise to pay to
Alexander T. Rodgers, or order, the sum OF
five thousand two hundred and twenty-five
dollars, at the office of Richard Lloyd, New
Orleans, La, with six per cent interest per
annum from date until maturity. for value re-
cnived. Philip DRUMA1
"Pav to A. c. Telton or order.
"ALExASDER 7. RODGERS"
"Pay to Richard Lloyd Or order.
ga C. felton,"
On this opposition the case ccmes before
the court. The note is written on very thin
trans parent paper in business-like hand.
but the signature of Drumm is tremulous and
shaky. Whether it is a genuine note or not
we have no means of knowing, nor would ii
be our province to say.
Prof Geo. Soule and J. Douglas, Esq, ano
other experts have been called IN to aid the
Judge in forming his opinion.
| Prof. Soule expresses the opinion that the
signature was traced by laying the paper over
an other, with Drumms signature beneath,
which he says is the most crude way OF doipe
it. On the other hand, an attorney testlfie'
that he saw the note signed by Drumm on the
date named in the note The examination
has already taken up some time, and prom
ises to co atinue. Judge Tssot has our sym
pathy in his laborious investigation.
