Another Terrisie steamboat Disaa-

The steamer Marine City, burned
near Detroit, has fosted ashore. she
is burned to the water's edge, and her
books and papers aro lost, 50 that there
will be some difficulty in ascertaining
how many OF those on board perished.
1t Ia believed that she had l2o passen.
gers aud crew OF 40 ou board, and OF
the whole number l3o are reported
saved, leaving 80 missing and suppoa-
ed to bs lost Three bodies have teen
found, but not identified. On one 'oi
them a cuff was found marked with
the name "Watson." The proximity Of
the life saving station at Surgeons
Point, the presence Of two tugs, the
coolness Of the captain and crew OF the
burnt steamer, and the fact that the
disaster occurred in daylight, all tend
ed to reduce the loss Of life. A late
dispatch says the captain Of the Ma
rine City thinks that only six OF the
passengers aud two Of the crew were
lost.

HEAVY DDFALOATION.

"A sad commentary on the
administration ofrefor,u inaur-
'1rated in the State after twelve
Years OF pillage, is the case of
the civil sheriff of New Orleans,
but a few days since brouyhtto
i,sht. NO positive estimate OF
the AMOUNT stolen by the high
func,ionary has yet been arriv-
ed at, owing to the imbecility.
and criminal neglect of officers
whose duty it was to guard over
and care for the State finances
but from Il rough estimate, at
the lowest calculation, the city
OF New Orleans has been de-
frauded out Of over S1OO.O 900
and the State at least $3.50, 600.
Should the defaulting Sherif7s
bondsmen prove to be solvent
which it is said they are not,
only $4,000 Of this immense
sum can be recovered, owing
to the fact that Sheriff Gauth-
reaux only gave boz d for this
amount. So it will be seen
that out Of S25O,OOO the Gov
eminent must lose 5000, 900.
In this matter the State Treas
urer and the Attorney General
are both as culpable as the de-
faulting Sheriff, from the fact |
that it is a part Of the duty of
these functionaries to watch
over the actions of such subor-
1inatIs: The Attorney Gener-
II contesses his knowledge Of
ihe crookedness three months
)ast and his reason for not TAX
ng steps against the offender
