and is decided defeat for the government
On the second reading, moreover, the reichstag
struck out clause 4, containing the provision
for the removal of the existing customs from
tier, which is the same thing in effect as max
ing the declaration proposed by Del Bruck,
though the latter was formally negatlved. The
result of the whole business is that the reichs-
tag has been prorogued without ratifying the
governments measures entered upon with
Austria, and the old treaty continues in force.

IN. o. Times.I

At half past four O'clock last even
ing, the body of Johnny Cain, child
two wears and seven months old, who
disappeared about noon Sunday, June
9th, was discovered in the privy
vault of his fathers residence, No. SO
Claiborne street.
As soon as this information was OBJ
tanned representative of the Times
visited the house, discovering before it
an immense crowd of women and girls
congregated Oh the banquette in front
of the house, and three policemen at
the door, who denied admission to all
excepting friends of the family. The
three rooms, however, were crowded
with women. Passing through side
gate, the writer passed through mar
row alley into small back yard where,
completely enveloped in sheet sprink-
led with carbolic acid, lay the diminu-
tive body of the hapless little victim.
When discovered he was lying upon
his face at the end of plank about
six feet long, to where he had evident
ly struggled. The privy is elevated,
being approached by q fight of three
steps and has high seat with one
large opening. Had the child mount
ed the seat he could readily have fall
en- in, and this was apparently the
method in which he. experienced his
sad fate.
1t will be remembered that when
the writer interviewed Mrs. Cain few
days after Johnny disappeared, she
stated that the child came in about
noon while she was bathing one of the
other children and attempted to play
in the water. She asked him to stop,
giving him a picture. He went ont,
she thought, to the street, and was
never afterwards seen.
1t is more than probable that at this
time he went into the back yard,
where he met horrible death without
the knowledge of any one. Recently,
every house has been Inspected by the
officers of the Sanitary Association,
and many vaults have been ordered
cleaned. 1t is more than probable the
Cain vault was one of these, and that
this sanitary precautions lead to the
discovery.
Subsequently,, Coroner Markey, with
q jury, viewed the body. when YER.
dict of accidental death, in accordance
with the facts recited above, was re.
turned.

Ten Miles Of Green TmEGKes.,


Capt. J. 3. Rodgers, owner of the
schooner Japes Andrews, that left
Lutkin's slip on the Goth ult., for Cal
casieu, encountered a squall off Sabine
on the 2Ist, in which the vessel lost
her jib and broke her centre board.
The squat seemed TO extend in circle
of about five miles, and was very Sc
we're. Vessels a few miles away were
entirely ont of reach. of the wind that
was pitching the James Andrews about.
For one,half hour the schooner was in
considerable danger, but good seaman
ship and cool Judgment carried her
through safely, and with only the
damage mentioned On the Tuesday
following, when between Sabine and
Calcasieu, the vessel again encountered
bad weather. The sea became very
lumpy, and blow wasimminenr, when
the schooner suddenly entered q field
of green turtles, some of them being
as large as an ordinary-sized round ia
BILE. Strange to say, they were all on
their backs. The schooner was lying
on and off, and from observation, it
was estimated tia. the water covered
by these turtles formed I'D area of eight
miles in width and hen miles in length.
They were Of all sizes, and not one be-
ing seen in natural position. The
water was literally covered with them.
During the passage among these tm-.
ties, Spanish maelserel were leaping
high in the air in every direction, as if
determined to escape from the sea,
giving evidence that either the sea mn
dcrneath MAS in a dreadful coinEDotion
or sea mons ters had come down on them
from some strange sea. Capt Rodgers
is anxious to have nautical men s@xniain
these odd phenomena of the turtles on,
their backs and the excitement among
the mackerel. During his nautical
career he never saw anything similar
to it, nor did he ever before Law ewes
on as many Spanish mackerel. The
storm that appeared imminent did not |
come, and fair weather and good sea
presented themselves after the vessel
passed through the field Of turtles.

Hancock i'm 1865.

Not for the first time in the cele-
brated Order No. 40 did the great sol
,dier, Hancock, commend himself to the
people of the Southern States. A lit
tie research among the orders issued
by him while in command of the Mid
die Military Division in 1866, will
bring to light many evidences Of his
disposition towards his gallant foes,
even while the arms were yet being
stacked npon the hills of Appomattox.
For instance, in his order dated at Win
chester, Va, April 10, 1865, announ-
eng the surrender of General Lee and
the terms given to the soldiers of the
Confederacy and calling upon all to
come IN and be paroled. Gen. Han
cock says, speaking to the people of
the State:
"The major general commanding
trusts that the people to whom this IS

peace, and will adapt their conduct TO

repeat what i then said.
i believe yonr nomination to have
been irregular and undemocratic, and
obtained under circumstances and by
means which the people of the district
willnot sanction or approve. Sincerely
DESTROYS of harmonizing the conflicting
opinions of the district on this subject,
/ suggested to you the propriety of
submitting your claims to a convention
regularly called and properly held. i
was willing then, and am now, to 20
even further.
Let twelve representative men of the
district, one from each parish, take this
question under advisement, their de-
cision to be final. Should you be sus-
tanned in the position you hold, or be
the nominee of a regular convention, /
will not only cheerfnlly assist you per-
sonally in yonr canvass, but will gladly
contribute $1,000 to your campaign
fund.
The district, as you know, has re-
publican majority of nearly 5000, and
can only be carried by the most indie
fatigable work. Toilet matters remain
as they at present exist is simply to
throw away all hope of democratic
success.
1t il for yon to decide this question
and assume the responsibility Of exist
ing disseDsions. 4 ask only what is
fair, just and honorable. If you have
been regularly nominated yon cannot
fear the decision of twelve honorable
men of this district who have only the
interests of our party at heart, nor
could yon, save for reasons purely per-
sonal, fear regular convention, for / |
should be 10th TO believe you would
knowingly sacrifice party snccess to
personal ambition.
Trusting to receive an early reply, i |
nave the honor 10 remain, your obe-
lent servant, i. III. AcKLEN.
