RoBBrNG BRIDAL PARTY OF MONEY AND
JEwELRY.-On Thursday, June l, 1876, a
wedding took place up town in one Of the
fashionable residences near Felicity street.
where the parents Of the bride reside. After
the marriage the happy couple started Tor
the North ON q bridal tour. Intending to
visit all the principal cities on the Mlssls'
sippi river, the happy couple left on one OF
the palace steamers for Memphis. The
first night out the steamer, between ten
and eleven o'clock, ran aground in the par
ish of st. Charles, which caused great
confusion on board. At the time all the
passengers were ON the deck watching the
movements of tug pulling the steamer of
the sand bar. While the excitement lasted,
one of the employees of the boat, 1t 10
supposed. entered the State room OF the
bridal party and forced open sstchel con-
tanning $500 and bridal set OF jeweiry
valued 1T $500. Information was imme-
diately sent to the lady's father. who is
cotton merchant in this city. Tho case
was placed in the hands of Captain l.. Ma
lone, chief of detectives, who, on the re-
turn trip of the steamer, went to investl-
gate the larceny. Captain Malone and De-
tectiye Hennessy succeeded on Wednesday
in arresting Alexander Thompson, who was
employed on the steamer when the larceny
was committed, and recovered all the prop
erty, which was fully iden titled by the
father of the lady. They also arrested the
watchman of the boat, Emile j. Morel, but
nothing was found on his person. He is
also highly recommended by the officers OF
the boat for honesty.

General Bu,,erse,d,s $4,000.

General Fitzpatrick has been interviewed
by the Boston Herald upon that $4,000
offer by General Butter1eld for the collect
oTship Of the port OF New York. He (Ku-
patrick states that General ButterfieId
wrote to him TO use his influence with the
administration to obtain the cOlIectorship,
and stated that he would BE- willing to pay
so, GOO for the position. When the letter was
received, Gen. Fitzpatrick % felt satisfied that
his correspondent did not mean to offer
bride, and that be had no intention Of wrong
doing, and with this idea the letter was
shown TO two or three gentlemen who hap
pened to be in the room, and who were
friends of both the writer aud the recipient
Of the letter" He did not, however,
use his influence for BltterieId's appoint
ment, but his private secretary, who was
for several years connected with the
New York HerOld, had access to his
papers, and il was probably from this
source the Herald came in possession OF the
information in regard to the matter. He
says he spent day in Washington the early
part Of last week, and his presence there lei
to the superstition that he hal been sum-
moned to testify, but such was not the case,
as he was merely en- route from ore engage
ment as lecturer to another, and if any
committee of Congress want him, there is
probably no public man in the country whose
whereabouts can be more easily ascertained.
In view OF these statements by Gen. Kill
patrick, il would seem to be in order for the
House officers to explain why they made
such pOther OF searching all over the city
fOr him IS for a witness that had mysteri-
ously disappeared, when il would seem he
had never been summoned.
