ATTEMPT TO BURN BUILDING.
How 1t was Discovered and Frustratcd
ny Two Young Men.


:45 o'clock Sunday morning most daring
attempt was made to destroy the wagon estab-
lishment Of VIM. Green ut the corner Of Fourth
aud Constance streets. 1t appears two young
men named Chas Christy and Peter CavanauRh
we're passing the above corner when they
discovered fire In the shop, and notified Officer
Schumacher Of the fact. The officer. together
with the two young men, entered the place. and
TO their surprise found that most desperate
attempt had been made BY an ineendiary to de-
stroy the place. and which not only would have
destroyed the building. but perhaps left In ruins
the entire block.
On d bench In the shop was water bucket.
which contained d lighted candle; In and
around the bucket was quantity OF shavinEs,
which only required the candle to burn down a
little to ignite the shavings; under the bench
and close to the, side OF the building. and
directly under the bucket containing the lighted
candle and the shavfngs, was half can of coal
oil. together with d can CT turpentine. The
bench, the bucket. the shavfngs In the bucket. a
the lighted candle. 4. quantity Of moss. together
with the roof OF the building. Were all we'll sat-
urated With coal oil. The incendiary's idea
was to arrange the candle 30 that when II had
burned down to the shavings II would ignite
them. and consequently In less than moment
the whole place would be In q blaze.
Fortunately. however the demons plans were
frustrated BY two young men who happened to
pass.
Sergeant Wilkinson. on learning the partieu-
lars OF the affair, arrested VIM. Green, at his
residence on Second street. and locked him up

The thief. instead of obeyine the command.
started to get over ground at the gait Of quar-
ter horse. Knupfer followed at his heels. and
a lively chase took place. which was made
more lively by about three hundred persons
joining In. The officer fading that his man
was q better runner than himself. and fearing
that he would effect his escape, drew his pistol
and fired one shot at him without effect.
The thief finding that he could not run 30
well with bis coat on. as II was made heavy by
the stolen booty lii the pockets, took it of and
dropped II at the corner Of Lafayette and Caron-
delet streets. a short distance from where he
dropped the coat his hat left him. COatless and

what Ii Thought OF the Picayune's sug-
EestaOn.
l.ELincoln Sentinel.I


The Picayurae. very kindly suggests that
the delegates from the country parishes
should no to New Orleans q few days before
the time for the assembling Of the conven-
tion, lii order ITO acquaint themselves with
the true condition of public opinion"
This Is q very kind suggestion, and one
which country delegates will know how to
appreciate. 1t assumes that there is no pub
lie opinion In the country, or that the dele
gates sent from the country will have no re-
gard for the public opinion Of their constitu-
ents but having once arrived In New Orleans
they will be taken possession OF by those
whom the picauane represents, and led away
from the apublic opinion they were elected
to represent.
There can be no objection to the going to
New Orleans Of the country delegates some
taught what public opinion ,is, but to ascer-
binations, II any, they will be called
upon to oppose, and to determine as
early as possible the best means OF accom-
plishing the ends for which they were elected.
The country parishes have elected men who
vii know. how to represent them; men VINO
cord with the will Of the people and who will
nave the courage to advocate these opinions
In the convention, whether they agree with
the views Of the Picayaa,e OF not.
[East Feliciana Patriot Demoerat.l
The New Orleans Picdya.ne Is anxious for
country delegates to the convention to rush
to the city IN order to 'taeauaint themselves
with the true condition of pabic opinion. !"
Inns is truly very modest request. As for
their duty and will perform it at ali hazards.
They will not hasten to the city to learn the
views and sentiments either OF the Picnuu1ae
or those who believe as the Pcdgune does.
