Constitution OF the United States, but to
that Of the Confederate States After
the people of Louisiana had for a short
time enjoyed the benefits of this revolu-
tiun, il came to pass that Admiral Farra-
gut. With his indomi'able faith in his gall
liant navy and firm belief that no rebel
proiectile would ever sink his wooden
ships, sailed by Forts Jackson and St.
Philip, and anchored in front of New Or
leans. (Checrs) 1t came to pass that
Gen. b. T. Butler, with the gallant little
army to which l have before alluded,
landed upon the soil Of Louisiana and
rescued the city Of New Orleans from the
possession of the armies of the rebellion,
prolonged cheers for Butler.)
THE speaker then briefly reviewed the
condition Of New Orleans before the ar
rival of the federal troops, aud stated the
condition of anarchy and disorder which
General Bntler foun! upon his arrival
and contrastcd the orders which were
issued by the rebel military authorities
before the arrival of the federal troops
with the orders issued By General Butler
upon similar subjects. Alluslon was
made to the fact that the rebel authorities
required every man to take the oath Of
allegiance TO the conicder; c. or to be I'M
meliatcly expelled from its borders
that every alien resident was required
to prove his friendship and substantially
avow an allegiance to the con'ederacy
under penalty Of Punishment and these
