The COming g Elections.

The State elections will soon begin to attract
attention. Vermont opens the ball on the 4th
of September next, and Maine follows on the
10th instant. The former State elects Gov
ernor, three members of Congress, and Legis-
lature, which will fill the vacancies in the United
States Senate accustomed by the decease of Jacob
Collamer and Solomon Foot. Maine chooses a
Governor, State Legislature, and five members
Of Congress. -.

anything are those which will occur on the h

and Indiana; OF these, Ohio elects membets of

In these three States there is now eyery bros-

goes to show that a great change has taken
place in pubic feeling, which will manifest
itself more especially in the Congressional dlec-

The New Orleans Riots - The Official
Record.

The New Orleans Riots The Official
From the Times
The publication of the official correspondence
complete, enables us to resurvcy the causes and
characteristics of the New Orleans riots, and to
estimate the accuracy of allegations of which
they have been the pretext. To complete the
case, it is necessary to keep in remembrance
the report of the Grand Jury, published some
days since, and the sworn testimony upon
which its recital of circumstances is founded.
There is nothing in General Sheridan's des
patches which is calculated to relieve the pro
moters of the convention from the responsibility
which the popular Judgment has affixed to them
The military testimony shows beyond disnute
that the plan for reassembling the delegates
with the avowed purpose of reconstructing the
constitutional machinery of the State was the
primary cause of the excitement which culmi-
mated in riot General Sheridan regarded the
scheme as pregnant with danger to the public
peace, and he more than once expressed mis-
condemnation OF the aims and political charac-
ter OF its authors. They were IN his opinion
reVolutionists, whose movements needed con
tinuRl watching, ana upon whose arrest he had
resolved, should an Overt act justify his inter-
ference. We have, then, Trustworthy ooint to
start from. The cOnventionlsts were dangerous
agitators, and III their assembling, With certain
understood objects in view, we see the real
origin of the calamites that followed. Whether
these results were tOreseen by the cOpventionsts
or not, is question which does not affect the
nature OF the operating cause. What they pro-
posed, what they threatened, and what they did,
produced the riots. And, in assigning the de-
grees OF responsibility, they must bear their
full share.
The wisdom of the course proposed by the
local civil authorities Is not so apparent; al
though IN balancing the evidence upon this
