Our Bonded Debt.

Last week we stated that our
bonded debt IL more than IL was ut
tho close Of the war In 1866. Some
OF our young friends OF the normal
dispute the statement. We invited
them aud everybody else to call and
see the documents, but no ono comes.
Last December a "feller" by tho
name OF John j. Knox, comptroller
Of tho currency, made sworn re-
port to congress. In that report he
says that the bonded debt of tho
United States, Aug. 81, 1865. was
Sl,1OS.3l0,l9l. And that last No
vember 1st II was sl,4oi, 0s0. 200.
Subtract the less from the greater
and you will find that Inst our bond
|cl debt was Sa05,77o,0u9 moro than
at the close Of the war almost Is
years ago. II we can't prove these
figures correct by Mr.. knoX's report
we will pay tho tuition aud board OF
our aforesaid normal friends as long
rs they wish to attend school here.
And furthermore, II Il our private
opinion publicly expressed that II
would he moro neighhurly and look
better Ii they would call and see the
official documents before they make
any moro remarks about the truth
fnlness CT our statement.-L Legal

STEAMER BURNED.

Destruction by Fire Of the 'sP'' Line Steam
er PsF1sot Near Matches, Miss, Together
with a Large and Valuable Cargo-Some
Loss of Life Feared.
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. Is.
The steamer s. II. Parisot of the ''P" line,
.ngaged in the Vicksburg and New Orleans
trade, was burned this morning about day.
light near Bullets Bayou, few miles above
Natchez. The Parisot left Vicksburg yes
terday morning at ten o'clock with the
largest cargo ever carried by her, and with
good passenger list. At few minutes
before five o'clock, just below Goodhope
landing, the cotton stored amidships was
discovered on fire. Engineer Clarity be-
gan working the pumps without sounding
The alarm, but the fire spreading, an alarm
was sounded. Pilot Voltz at once headed ths
steamer for the Louisiana shore. The boat
struck the bank and lines were put out.
Nearly all the passengers rushed to the
bank in night clothing, carrying other gar
nents, and abandoned all other baggage,
jewelry and money. Before the crew got
safely OF the lines burned and the vessel
drifted into the stream. Yell Boring,
second engineer, stood at his post until sur
rounded by fire. Finding he could do no
more, he jumped into the river and swan
ashore. A portion of the crew was taken
off in a yawl. There was great excitement
among them. Two jumped into the river,
and one, Phil Burdbarg, drowned. When
the news of the disaster reached Natchez
the steam-tug O'Brien started for the scene,
and showed the steamer on sand-bar.
Soon after, the powder in the Parisot's
magazine exploded. The steamer City of
Yazoo, of the same line, en- route to Vicks-
burg, took the Parisot's passengers out of
the canebrake and brought them to Natchez.
Origin of the fire unknown. The boat had
ffty-eight deck passengers, many of whom
insisted on smoking, and it is believed the
fire resulted from their carelessness. 1t is
feared that two or three deck passengers
persisted in the flames. The boats papers
were lost. The boat had on leaving Vicks-
burg 800 bales cotton, l ,296 sacks of oil.
cake and $50 barrels oil. She took on after
leaving Vicksburg 464 bales cotton, bring
ing the total up to 1854 bales.
