Charles e. Chesney.
The death of Colonel Charles c. Chesney,
of the British army, was announced in the
cable dispatches from England yesterday.
Colonel Chesney became suddenly famous
by his being reputed as the author of the
article published IN Black,cood's Magazine
some few years since on 1.-THE German Con-
quest of England IN 1875 and the Battle of
Dorking. or "reminiscences of Volunteer" !"
The article was subsequently published in
book form and met with immense success.
1t created widespread excitement, particu-
lsrly in England, and has, it is said, had the
effect of inducing the many projects for
army reforms and volunteer organizations,
which have since been propounded by the
English government. 1.-THE Battle of Dork-
ing" has been translated into different Ian
guages. One of the latest transactions was
by Brazilian scholar, who rendered it into
the Portuguese tongue and credited the
original to Benjamin Disraeli. Since his
has become favorably known throughout
the world. He has published many works
and reviews which have gained for him .
we'll deserved popularity. He wrote .
History of the Civil War in the United
States" which has already become Q stand
ard work and which exhibits considerable
knowledge, great clearness and thorough.
ness. and perfect acquaintance with the
management of armies. "Sherman's Me-
moirs' he reviewed In the Fortnightly
Rerieu, with great discriminating power
and analytical ability. He also reviewed
the Count de Paris History of the Ameri.
can Rebellion" with an intelligence which
caused the article to be widely read. Upon
military history and army tactics he was
regarded in this country, as we'll as in Eng
land, as an authority to be relied upOn and

Amusements.

Miss Mary Anderson closed her engage
ment at the Varieties Theatre last night,
and considering the business of the week,
the handsome benefit of Friday night and
the crowded matinee of yesterday, she has
every reason to be proud of her success.
On Monday evening the management will
produce Robertson's fine military drama
called "Ours."
At the St. Charles Theatre the spectacu.
lar drama of "Around the World in Eighty
Days has been very successful, and it will
be continued another week, closing the sea-
con of MIR. DeBar's management.
On the twenty first Of April concert
and dance will be given at st. Patrick's
Hall by the Royal Guards, which organiza-
ton, composed principally Of the young
gentlemen of the High Schools, is to remain
permanent.

A Heavy Mining Suit.
In the suit of the Union Consolidated
Mining Company, of Tennessee, against
Raht and others for 81 ,255,0 900, claimed to
have been fraudulently converted, deci-
sion has been rendered by Judge Lawrence,
dissolving the Injunction temporarily grant
ed on an affidavit against the defendants.
The defendants, Charles Raht and John
Thomas, deny under oath absolutely every
allegation made against them. The other
defendant, j. E. Raht, who resides in Ten
nessee, did not put in an appear
ance in this suit, never having been
served with q process. The latter
it seems first sued the company last Sep
tember, in Tennessee, for money loaned on
q mortgage of personal property and OBJ
tanned q further attachment of it's real
estate. In answering his bill the company
brought . counter-suit for 81 ,00O, 900, max
ing then, for the first time, the identical
charges now repeated in the New York
suit. In Tennessee, the company repleved
it's property by giving security for $l14, 900,
the amount of the mortgage debt.

Destruction Of a Church.

We regret to learn that the recently
erected edidce of the First Shiloh Baptist
Church, on Perdido street. near Roche
blave, was blown down and destroyed in
the violent gale on Sunday. This is q very
severe loss to the young congregation,
which has just succeeded by close saving
and careful management in putting to-
gether money enough to build their little
church. The pastor, Elder H. Green, is q
Jealous young worker for the interests Of
his congregation, who has given his services
freely without reward or hope of pecuniary
reward. We fear the members will hardly
be able to begin anew the work, unless they
receive substantial assistance of their
friends in the other churches which passed
through the storm unipjured. The full ex-
tent of the loss is not known, though it is
to be hoped some Of the materials can be
ssved out of the wreck.

MIR. Davis and the Mexican Veterans

MIR. Davis and the Mexican Veterans.
We are indebted to Mr.. j. B. Chandler,
secretary of the Louisiana Associated Vet
erans of the Mexican War, for pamphlet
copy of the address recently delivered
before the association by Mr.. Jefferson
Davis. The address is short but very
readable document. 1t gives brief glance
of the progress of the war against Mexico,
and the orator refers with commendable
pride to the stirring scenes in which he was
q participant. He remembers Buena Vista
with all the vividnees of gallant soldier
who was there, and did his whole duty, and
who carried from that field of glory pain
full but honorable wound. Mr.. Davis no.
tees, as a fact not creditable to the char
acter of the republic for gratitude, that our
brave countrymen who were warning on
that day have remained unpensioned for
more than q Quarter of q century. There
is little doubt that an act of Congress giving
pensions to the surviving soldiers Of the
Mexican war would be popular in every
section of the country.

In publishing the official report of the
condition of this stsunch financial institu.
ton. we take occasion to call the special
attention of the public, depositors as we'll
a. stockholders, to the figures presented by
the cashier. Its assets are not only solid,
but, as the French would say, n,o6ile-thst
is. either cash or easily convertible. Presi-
dent Palmer has devoted his entire atten-
ton to the discharge Of his duties, and by
untiring energy, unquestionaole fair deal
ing and very accommodating, though at
the same time firm and equitable policy,
succeeded in putting the bank in the first
rank of our financial institutions. The

we need only to refer to the exhibit Of
Cashier Walton, which may be found in
