tremendous riot broke out In New Orleans on
the morning of the Goth ult, caused by the refusal
of the brokers to buy Municipality notes, which
were at discount Of from 25 to 40 per cent. the
day previous. We gather from the New Or.
leans papers the following particulars. About
o'clock. on the morning of the goth, crowd of
some thousand persons collected on the public
square, They were principally men who do busi-
ness in small way about the lower markets
Frenchmen, Spaniards, Italians, &c. After some
brief addresses from some of those among them.
they proceeded to the building in which are the
Mayors office and the Treasury of the First Muni.
cipaty. Here they became extremity clamorous,
and gave indications of their determination to out
rage both law and order. They were met by the
Mayor who assured them that all excitement and
apprehension about Municipality notes were ground
less-that the Municipalities would provide for the
payment of them at par value and he therefore re.
quested them to disperse and go home.
This did not satisfy them. Some one in the
crowd cried out in French down with the brokers,

The orderly port on of the citizens spontaneously
turned ou' co the rescue of property, and together

of the rioters and restoring order in the course of
the same morning.
