Head Quarters, tn Military District,
Netp- Orleans, 9th .1Tarch, 1915.

The Major General commanding the district,
has received the application OF all the officers
and soidi RS OF major Pianche's battalion, and O!
majors Lacoste and Dacquin, earnestly praying
mat the General Order oil the Gath ult. should
be suspended, and pledging themselves for the
good conduct OF the persons coming under its
purview. The reasons for issuing that order
we're urgent--the certificates of foreign agent
were made the pretext for a most alarming de-
reelection OF duty; and men, who, left to the i'm
pulse of ,heir own rectitude, would have fol-
lowed the general example Of patriotism aud
honor that was set BY other inhabitants of tue
country, were persuaded TO accept all the ben
efits arising from the heroic conduct of their
ieliow-citizens, while they meanly endeavored
to shrink FROM all the duty imposed on them
to be citizens for privileges, enjoyments sud
immunities-aliens for all duties, sacrifices and
and exposure to danger. This was state of
things which the safety Of the state, the duties
OF the general, and the honor OF his country
could not permit to exist and the order was
therefore issued, giving those misguided men
time TO consider whether they weuld still con.
tnue to avail themselves of this degrading ex
emPsion, at q distance from the camp; or enrol
themselves among those who defend it. The
time having expired from the option given by
this order, it would have been strictly execu-
, ted, but for the application and the guarantee
offered by the gallant officers and soldiers above
named. Their correct and highly meritorious
conduct during the whole campaign, renders
1T difficult for the commanding general to deny
any thing that they can be induced to ask. AS
aProof, therefore. Of the high sense which the
commanding general eDtertains of the impor.
tant services rendered by the officers and SOL
diers OF the uniform battalion Of New. Orleans,
as well as of the other corps belonging to the
city, he directs that ths execution Of the said
order be suspended until bis pleasure shalt be
further signiied, except so far as the same re.
lates to the Chevaler de To1sard, who is not
permitted to come within the lines of the camp
OF Notifications, without special permission.
