Everything has quiet ed down, and no traces of the late excitement are perceptible, either in banking or commer- cial circles.

They will be confined at hard labor for lire at Alcatross Island, California. This ac- tion was deemed necessary, because President Grant took the ground that they held the same relations to Capt.

The army of panic- makers absorbed it. In 1457 a pauie party drew over $40,000 in gold from the Chemical Bank in four days, and took it back in four other days. after sleeping upon it, and being in dsead of burglars, murderers, and all the slarms inci- dent tohaving so much money at home.

The times demand such officers. None others should de chosen. Believing that you will make such a selection and secure the services of proper men, lam with you heartily. The grand work in process of accomplishment is secured.

Yesterday she was taken before the grand jury. District Attorney Britton says that she has made to him and other officials the most extraordinary statements regarding the murder of Mr. Goodrich. Her late statement implicates a person whose name has not hitherto been mentioned in connection with the case. Mr. Britton says that, if her story is true, it presents one of the most remarkable phases in he history of crime. Having learned that Mrs. Myers was apparently making preparations to get out of the way, the district attorney pro- cured her arrest as an important witness imme- liately after she had given testimony before the grand jury. The person whom Mrs. Myers now accuses of complicity in the murder is believed to be in this country, and Mr. Britton says that ~teps have already been taken Lo secure his capture.
