The situation was such as to preclude the pos

For this reason Mayer Monroe appointed the
elder officer, General Paul Juge, commander-in-
chief of all the forces and he in his turn made
an appeal 10 all good citizens to augment the ef
fectiye strength OF what may with propriety be
regarded as 90 Urban Guards In consequence
of the events which have so profoundly agitated
the city, comparatively few have responded to
this appeal But our present position certainly
requires that ali faithful citizens, all friends of
public tranquility, should cheerluily 60 operate
IN the work of preserving public order, first I'M
dortalleu by th5 foreign bngades.
The Federals have thus far taken possession of
the city simply as 2 matter of form They
merely occupy certain public buildings, and
have delegated to the civil authorities the duty
and responsibility of the internal police The
presence Of a few detachments of marines IN
the custom house and mint tends 30 create fresh
danger, which must be aveTted for the sale Of
common interest. Now the foreign hTiga2es
while perfectly willing to endeavOr to maintain
peace and public order. have carefully avoided
every act that might p ssibly be construed into
an Intervention, direct or indirect between the
Federals and the citizens Of Louisiana This
delicate reserve will be properly appreciated by
all sensible aud rejecting persons.
It will be seen elsewhere that Commodore
Farragut devoIves upon the mayor the resp0usi-
bility for any disturbances which might be caUs-
ed by the presence amongst us of Federal uni
forms or of the national banner ,Df the United
States Mayor Monroe in view of his position.

purpose of preventing any hostile demoustra-
