THE HARMONIOUS OF LOUISIANA.
The excitement in the Louisiana Legisla-
ture, growing out Of the bills for the re-
apportionment of the State, exceeds that
recently produced in the Legislature of
this State. Lieutentant-G Governor Mou-
ton, President of the Senate, has resigned
in consequence of alleged disrespeet ex-
hibited toward him by the Senate, and
Mr.. Pugh, Speaker of the House, became
disgusted and left Cor home. Mr. Pugh
appointed a committee of conference SO
one-sided and unfair, representing the
small squad of Satellites, that the House
rejected them, and proceeded to ballot for
another committee which would represent
at least three-fourths of the body. Oi
course, after such 4 reprOof, the gentle
man vacated his seat.
