DEATH OF CAPTAIN X. w. MULLEN
Sunday morning many friends of Captain
X. w. Mullen we're startled by report
that he was lying dead at the st. Charles
Hotel. He had come to New Orleans from
Franklin, where he held his office as col.
iector Of customs of the district of the
Teche, for the purpose of seeing the fire.
mems paraue. The pleasures incident to
meeting his friends on that and sue
ceeding days proved too attractive, and
he postponed his return long beyond the
time he originally intended. He fell into
the usual course of dissipation, and was
during the entire time more or less under
the influence of liquor. 1t was his habit,
when desiring to recover from such a con-
dition. TO take a dose of laudanum, and
never. so tar as learned, experienced any
evil effects from it. After sleeping off the
effects nj the drug and liquor he would
return TO business apparently perfectly re
stored.
Saturday afternoon he told a friend he
WAS determined to stop, and should, there
fore, take some laudanum. rest as usual
md return next day. He then purchased
an ounce, asked DR.. White, of St. Mary,
how much it was safe for him to take, was
told twenty drops, and if no effect follows
twenty moro some hours later, but no
more" and, leaving his friends, returned to
the hotel. His appearance was OF one
somewhat under the influence OF liquor,
bat perfectly rational and composed.
Reaching the st. Charles Hotel about
half.past six o'clock, he went directly to
his room. The boy who assisted him says
he appeared much intoxicated, and was un-
able TO take the vial from his pocket, but
seized it angrily when the boy took it out
for him. He asked for drink, and pour
ing the whole contents of the vial into a
glass, drank it at once. The boy immedi-
ately ran down stairs and told the clerk
what had happened. Colonel Kilbou:ne
went To Captain Mullen's room and found
him already under the influence of the
iaudanum, as he fell to the floor after say
ing he had taken it because he "was |
nervous. and wished to sleep" From that |
time he did not speak. Drs. Support and |
Scott were soon in attendance, but could do |
nothing to prevent death, which followed !

Mari HOGAN, THE NoroRIoUs.-This
good looking Young man, who is rated and
serated as a No. l burglar, yesterday morn
ing surrendered himself to Superintendent
Badger. having most emphatically been
made aware that q warrant was out for bis
arrest He was under bonds to appear in
swo or three cases, and yesterday his ar.
raignment before the Superior Criminal
Court WAS the first on the docket. Last
Friday warrant was issued by Judge Evans
for Hogan's arrest, on q charge of having
stolen property in his possession, but Mathew
objected. and hastily retired. However,
he sent message that he would show up
Monday morning. and he kept his word,
making a particular point to surrender to
Superintendent Badger, rs he does not seem
TO have any excessive love for detectives.
Accused WAS no sooner in the Municipal
Court than an order was read for him to
appear ia the Superior Criminal Court to
be srraigned in the Danziger robbery mat
ter, and an officer took him to that tribunal,
where he was called up, pleaded not guilty
and was released on bond. He immediately
retCrned to the First Municipal Police
Court to respond to the aforesaid warrant,
and again furnished the required bond. He
then travelled off to seek required repose.

The Shepherd Dogs.

In Scotland they often lend their shepherd dogs, and though they perform their duty well they never make mis- take, and adopt the new master |" for good and all." A gentleman stopping for 8 few days with shepherds family, observed fine dog come in every day at dinner time. He received his rations and then went away. T never see that dog except at dinner time, remarked the guest, inq1iringly. "The reason is, , said the farmer, five have lent him to our neighbor, Jamie Nicol, an we tell him to come home ilka day to his dinner. When he gets his dinner, puir beast, he goes ava back till his work"
 Fine working dogs they have in Scot land, with 8 great deal of national good sense. Three dogs were lying asleep before the fire, when some one whistled them out. "Two arose and the other lay still, ''It is odd," said the visitor, "that this dog does not get up like the others" It is no his turn,''' remarked the farmer, "he was oot a the mornin'. 2

Opinions of the Press.

The 7'eras New Yorker says: "An old Scotch physician once said to one of his patients: Keep your feet warm, your head cool, and your bowels open, an there's little "ilse" can harm ye. This aphorism is full of wisdom, and ex- presses exactly what Dr. Walkers Cali fornia Vinegar Bitters will do for you. We speak of what we know from nearly two years practical experience in the use of this indispensable family medicine. Its office is to attack lazy, torpid liver, and impart new life to this vital organ: proper flow of bile and a prompt dis charge of effete matter. A good diges- tion and appetite are restored to the sufferer. Pure blood, the life of the flesh, is secured, and the patient soon feels himself walking electrical battery. Good health is more precious than fine gold-Vinegar Bitters restores it, and is, therefore, above price. The man who discovered it is philosopher and bene factor of his race. ."-Cona.

A Land Owner.

Gerrit Smith was a very fortunate man, so far as worldly affairs go. His father, who was partner of John Jacob Astor, seems to have had truly Anglo Saxon lust for land, ;" though descended from a race that had to fight for the little land 1t lived and did business on. When his father died, all the latter's land, about 1, 500, ,000 acres, was left to Gerrit Smith, of which two-thirds was in New York State. This magnificent domain equal in extent to sprincipality and growing in value--could not have fallen into better hands. Its management brought it's owner into contact with rep resentatives of various Indian tribes, with whom he never had the slightest difficulty, because he was not only just but generous. He had to deal with thousands of poor "squatters," who found him the most merciful and lib ral of landlords. Naturally, his aid was sought for all manner of local entel- prises, charities and public institutions, in the localities where he was a large landowner. In all these cases he uni. formly led in iberality, and showed that unseltish regard for the welfare of others which was more valuable than what he gave.
