A Warning to STRANGERS.

Thompson" the sagacious New Orleans
correspondent of the Dona sonville Chief,
writes as follows:
The Superintendent of the Police has been
tried for not suppre ssine bunko. The Board
OF Police Commissioners found on trial that
bunko had not been suppressed, and &C.
Quilted Colonel Loan from the charge Of
0lsobedt nee OF the boards orders. That is
as nearly right IS the case can be intelli.
gently stated. As it appears the robbers
can not be put down, l advise our Donald
sonville people 10 look out for themselves
when they come to town. If q stranger an
proaches them and Gays anything about q
lottery ticket, or seeing q man on St.
Charles street, call for policeman imme
diately. The policeman may not come. but
the bunko man will run away, and our
friends will cave their p0cketbooks.
