suspended peyment" is the notice
on the front door of the Franklin
Bank in this city. News was received
here yesterday by the Franklin Bank
that Henry Seabert, large tobacco
mist OF New York, has gone to the
wall. The bank has been doing an
extensive business with Mr.. Seabert,
he being an extensive creditor u the
bank. His failure compelled the
bank to cease payment. This made
it necessary for Kendrick, Pettus &
Co. to assign. This firm has issued
the following card which fully, but
briefly explains their reasons for as
signing:
Owing to the failure of large
creditor in New York of the Franklin
Bank, that institution was forced to
suspend. Because of the suspension
'f the bank, in which we had large de-
'osits, and on account of the strin-
'ency in the money market, we found
7e could not promptly meet our OBJ
cations, and in order to protect each :
our creditors alike, we have made j..

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

EDITORS HERALD--Please give space
to the following for the enlightenment of
Mr.. Kercheval and others:
The slur thrown out regarding the
taking of the census and branding it as
a humbug and delusion because one
poor "fellah" is left out is hereby con-
tradicted in so far as the sixth ward is
concerned. Allow me to inform the
above gentleman" that the enumerator
called at his place twice on Saturday,
June 14th, and found only swarm of
bees on his front porch, and as l enum-
Grated Mr.. Wadleigh, who lives on an
adjoining place, must have 'shown
up'' in his vicinity.
If the people who complain would
stay at home or call at the Bryson-Bone-
brake block and fill out the proper
blanks it would save many wearisome
walk and show their interest in the
work. Let Mr.. Kercheval come to the
Office and save the undersigned twenty
cents car fare and chance of finding no
one at home. and the census will be
complete in so far as he is concerned.

Census Enumerator for Precinct G,

Pocahontas Smart has summoned to the
academy lawyer, Judge Jack, to make
the will of Professor Queer in her favor.
At the same time the Professors
nephew, Frank, has summoned Doctor
Jack to treat the professor for his all
ments. The judge and the doctor arrive
on the same day, andsbeing exactly sim
liar in dress and appearance, are natur-
ally confounded for one another. Judge
Jack being applied to by Prof. Queer for
medicine, gives him the only bottle he
possesses-a flask of cold Crow" Its
effect on the professor is electrical.
He summons everybody and announces
that he will close up the seminary and
take everybody to summer sanitarium
for recreation. The second act is in the
Invalids' Retreat. Nine. Smart is in
stalled as housekeeper, and is still en-
deavoring to secure the professors will
in her favor. The doctor and the Judge
appear, and complicate matters by max
ing violent love to Hetty, Lefty and
Glorosa, and both the doctor and Judge
become engaged to each Of the three
girls. This complication arises from the
fact that the girls are only aware of the
judges presence, and the doctor is con-
tinually taken for the judge. The third
act returns to the seminary. There the
fact that there are a Judge and doctor,
exactly alike in appearance, is first dis
closed, and the complications are
Strengthened out. Pocahontas finally
weds the professor, to find that the for
tune that he is supposed to possess is
held by him in trust for Dollie Dalrym-
pie, who is supposed to be dead. 1t is
conveniently shown that Zetty is Dollie
Dalrymple, and the fortune belongs to
her. She and Frank are married, the
judge weds Hetty Hopes, the doctor
weds Lefty Still, Gloriosa weds Smooth
Sharp, and Pocahontas having bagged
the professor Cor which she is sorry,
since his fortune is gomez, nothing re-
mains but for the curtain to fall
The performance tonight will be for
the benefit of Manager H. G. Wyatt,
who has long catered to the amusement

that every seat will be taken.
