From New Orleans.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2O.-The steamer Nor
ming Star, from New Orleans 18th, via Ha-
vana 18th, arrived last night. She was de
tanned three days by Gen. Banks to carry
dispatches. She left at Havana the steam
ers Eagle and Corsica, bound for New
York. The next day the blockade running
schooners Isabel and Union arrived at Ia
wanna with cotton. The latter was chased
to Havana by the gunboat DeSoto.
A report at Havana said the steamer
Harriet Lane was expected from Calves
ton with cotton.
mouth Of the Mississippi several months
ago and taken to Mobile, had been made
into gunboat by adding fifty feet to her
length. She would soon be ready to run
the blockade, and would make an attempt
to capture some of the New Orleans mail
steamships.
Major Gen. Reynolds had assumed COM
mand of the defences of New Orleans. The
occupation Of Indanola by Gen. Warren is
confirmed.
The town Of jacksonville, La, on the
north side of Lake Pontchartrain, had
been captured without resistance, and was
occupied by our forces. The expedition
consisted of portion of the Maine 18th,
Connecticut 9th, the 18th battery L. S. ar
tillery, and a company of the I'd Louisiana
cavalry. all under command Of Col. kim
ball ofthe 18th Maine.
Gen. Banks had issued a proclamation
for State election for Louisiana, on the
I'D Of February.
In his order for State election. General
Banks says he feels assured that more than
one-tenth of the people desire the earliest
possible restoration OF Louisiana to the Tn
ion. He declares that so much of the con
stitution and laws of the State as recogni-
yes, regulates and relates to slavery, being
inconsistent with the present condition Of
public affairs, and plainly inapplicuble to
any class now within its limits, are mop
erative and void. He also appoints con
vention for the revision of the State consti-
tuition, to pe held on the first Monday of
May next. Arrangements will be made
for an early election of members of Con-
gress.

Hundreds of Mississippians were in the

The Era has intelligence from Texas
through Rev. Mr.. McRooe, who says there
is an overwhelming Union sentiment in
Western Texas. A number of Union men
have been imprisoned by order of Mag
ruder, for publishing a book called Com
ment. Fears for their safety were enter
tanned. Magruder was concentrating his
forces on the Brazos river, thirty miles
from the coast and entrenching.

The ALIEN SNEAkS, AND WHAT OUGHT
TO BE DONE WITH THEM Naturally
enough, great indignation has been pro-
voked and exists very generally among
our people, against that class Of residents
who, in anticipation of the enforcement Of
the Consumption Act, have obtained ex-
exemption by foreswearing American citi-
zenship and placing themselves under the
protection of the resident consuls of for
eign Governments. TheeXtent to which this
cowardly and unmanly practice has been
carried is astounding. In the city Of Chi
cago alone there is a list of several hundred
Of these men, who while residing here and
enjoying all the blessed benefits Of citizen
ship, declare themselves citizens of 4 for
eign country, in order to escape the posi-
bility Of being summoned to aid the Gov
eminent i'm defending and preserving the
national liberties and institutions under
which they are blessed prosperet. and pro-
tected. 1t is an exhibition of base iRgrati-
tude and plfui cowardice that ought not
10 be tolerated with impunity.
1t is q question that American citizens
NAV well ask themselves and each other,
at this time, whether it is not their duty to
treat these alien ingrates as outlaws
They come here, it seems, TO share the ben
efits OF our nationality, without being will
ling, in an emergency, to aid in defending
from assault and threatened death 1.-THE
goose that lays the golden egg for them.
1t is known that many of these fellows
have voted at our local and gem
eral elections, and exercised all the
immunities and privileges Of
ci izenship, without let or hindrance. And
now, when there is likelihood OF their
services being required in behalf Of the ma
ton, they sneak into a corner, and seek,
under the protection of foreign flag, 70
evade duty which every honorable in
stinct of manhood demands of the resi-
dents of the country. It is shameful and
treacherous piece of business, that ought
to make every one engaged in it an object
to be pointed at and despied by all true
men.
Let these cowarily and dishOnorable
aliens, who gain their livelihood among US,
but refuse to be of us in times Of public
danger, be marked. Let their names be
posted up in public places, all over the
country, where they can be read and
handed down to infamy. Let them be ia
booed, despised, outlawed. Let EMPLOYERS
refuse to give them situations. Let society
shut them out of its privileges. Let then,
be forced to leave the country which thew
have virtually fOresWOrn, and 20 to the
country to whose flag they sneak for pro
lection.
A foreigner residing in this country. is
not to blame for being foreign born. and so
long as he behaves himself we are willing
that ne should enjoy our national blessings
and privileges equally with ourselves: but
when, after having enjoyed those blessings
and privileges, he turns against us. then
we say let him be marked as a man who
Is not worthy to live amongl us.-Chicngo

The Prcsidents Message.

We decline publishing the message of
our worthy President for the reason that
i, is loo lengthy for our columns and is
throughout an uninteresting account. In
our outside is review of it from the New
York World which covers the whole
ground. On the whole il is the poorest
State paper ever issued by chief magis-
trate of this republic
He begins by saying that the blessings
of health and an abundant harvest de-
mand our profound gratitude and then i'm
mediately launches into foreign relations
He however throws no new light on these
subjects. He speaks Of the raids from Can
ada and the difficulty in Brazil, the former
be thinks will be stopped, and the latter
adjusted before long.
He goes in for encouraging migration
and says that is the source we must look
to during the war for keeping up our
wealth and population, and that there
ought to be a law passed to prevent them
from being imposed on when they land on
our shores and not be forced into the army
if it was not their free choice.
The financial affairs of the country are
in a fourishing condition, and quotes
largely from the report of the Secretary of
the Treasury.
The public debt on the first of July last
was one billion seven hundred and forty
millions, six hundred and ninety thousand
four hundred and eighty-nine dollars and
forty-nine cents, aad will be increased
five hundred millions at the end of the
year. He advises Congress to pass an act
exempting government securities in the
hands of individuals, from taxation, and
prevent them from execution for the pay
ment of debts. He recommends that
there should be no State banks of issue in
the country, they should all be regulated
by act of Congress, He then branches
out on the army and navy, he does not
say much about the army but he is par
ticularly delighted with The navy.
He hurries over the Postoffice DEPART
ment, new States and territories, Indians,
pensions, &c. and finally lights on his fayo-
rite theme the negro.
He seems delighted with the success
had IN Maryland. He says she is Sc
cured to liberty and union for the future.
|" The genius of rebellion will no more
claim Maryland. Like another foul
spirit i; has been driven out. 1t NAV seek
to tear her but it will WOO her no more"
He wishes Congress TO pass an act by
two-thlrd vote, abolishing slavery in the
United States. 1t passed the Senate last
winter but was lost in the House for want
OF the requisite majority. They are
nearly the same men there this winter
that was there before, but he thinks the
sooner they pass tia. the better The
new Congress will unqucstionably pass IT.
lie thinks this election ought to satisfy
every one that a vast majority of the neo-
pie are for the abolition Of slavery.
he proves by the election returns that
there are more men in the country now
than were before the war commenced
Ihat the country is inexhaustible in men
