all OF which are not yet in. The assets

& Ii. Strauss, whose attachments were
first served, are brothers-in-law
OF the embarrassed merchant
SIR. Lyon left the city about ten days ago
and his whereabouts are rot known 10 his
creditors, which lends a new feature TO
the case. There Is considerable harsh
crit ism 10 local circles Of Mr. Lyons
mode OF doing business, to which many
attribute his failure more than to any
other cause He has special or
silent partner in the person of A.
g. Andrews Of Montgomery, Ala, who is
a man Of extensive means aud who will
doubtless have 10 make good the debts Of
the firm. Charles N. Rlx, cashier OF the
Arkansas National bank, has been ap-
pointed receiver by Judge Caldwell A
lively contest Is likely to follow between
him and the creditors who have pos
session 81 the assets under attachment, as
1t IS understood that Mr. Xix was APP
pointed upon the petition OF Mr. Andrews,
the special partner.
Hot SPRINGS, ARK, Jan. &c. Lyon,
a large dry goods merchant of this city,
has failed. Attachments to the amount
Of $4,000 have been levied upon his
stock and other property, but it is stated
that his liabilities largely exceed that
amount. The assets cannot now be
stated, owing 10 the condition in which
the creditors found his accounts. Lyon
left the city some time ago, and his
whereabouts are unknown
