WASHINGTON. March q. 1879.
The bank suspension at New Orleans attracted but
slight attention at the Treasury to-day and is consid-
cred there a matter Of no real importance. The
banks which have actually failed all State insti-
tutions and the seven national banks are in good
condition. The State inks which in trouble are
believed to have invested largely in State and New
Orleans city securities especially the latter. which
have become deprecated to the extent OF twenty
per cent by reason Of decision of the State
Supreme Court which declared unconstitutional a
is probably also that the declared intention OF
the Constitutional Convention, election for which
has Just been held to tinker with the State credit,
has had the effect of shaking confidence in the State
bonds Governor Nichols having been unable with
the best intentions to carry out the refunding
scheme which was begun under the Kellogg gov
eminent.
THE BANKS NEW ORLEANS.
There are seven national banks in New Orleans,
with an aggregate capital of only S2s75,OOO There
are eleven State and savings banks, with total
capital of 81 900. Concerning the condition Of
these State banks nothing known at the Treasury.
They issue notes, of course. The seven national
banks appear to be in good condition.

Fifteen Days on a Wreck.

Chief Officer Foot and Charles Cos.
man, seamen, the only survivors of the
American shooner Estella, of Portland,
Me-, bound from Yarmouth for the
island of Antigua, West Indies, with
general cargo, have been landed at Fall
mouth, England. After leaving port
they experienced terrific weather. The
wind being very high they lay to for
three days, waiting for the fury of the
storm to subside. During the early
morning hours, one day, a heavy sea
capsized the vessel. OF the crew of five
men, Cosman only was on deck, the
other four being below. Captain Hur-
sey and Chief Officer Foot and the cook
came on deck as she turned over. The
survivors then succeeded in getting on
the side Of the vessel. The cook fell off
exhausted after three hours. The cap
tain suceumbed to the exposure and
fatigue after gallantly holding on until
after eight o'clock in the morning. The
vessel finally, by the action of the waves
and being full of water, righted herself.
Foot and Cosman managed with great
difficulty to make their way once more
to the vessels deck. They laid planks
on the windlass and water barrel, which
served as their bed and resting place for
fifteen days. Neither of them slept for
the first three days, expectin every
moment that the vessel would sink be-
meath them. On the fourth day barrel
ofapples floated from the forehold, which
they succeeded in capturing. The apples
were saturated with salt, and eau ed the
poor fellows the most intense thirst.
They also obtained box of salted mack
erel, which they greedily devoured.
One day before they were rescued a
barrel of -four fioated out from the
hold. They made dough of the flour
an ate it raw, until wave washed all
away. On the following day, while the
wind was piercing cold and the sun was
about going down, the wreck the unhap-
py men were floating on was seen by the
Spanish brig Dorotea, which bore down
upon them. 1t soon came alongside and
rescued the survivors, who were hoping
and praying for death to come to their
relief.
When the Spaniards took the men off
they had only seven apples left For
their breakfast they had two apples
each and some rotten haddock. They
were in such an emaciNted condition
that they had TO be lifted from of their
plank bed, 10 which they had tied them
selves TO prevent being washed over
board. They speak in the warmest
terms of gratitude of the great kindness
they experienced at the hands Of their
rescuers. .H

to find out the criminal il it cost ten

story about his losing hundred dollar
