NEW ORLEANS RIOT.
Charge of JudgeAbeIIto the GrandJury

From the Louisville Curriers' special, Aug p
NEW ORLEANS, Aug mo report vet
from the Grand Jury, but another charge
from Judge ABELL
Gentlemen of the Grand July: The riot
which occurred on Monday last has filed the
breast Of every member Of society with sor-
row for the untimely fate of so many Of our
fellow beings.
The cause Of the riot has no parallel in
history.
After proving the iIlegality of the pro-
ceedings Of members Of 1864 Convention.
the Judge says: With these facts existing.
it could not be supposed that any people
could submit to have their fundamental law
altered in any particular without their con-
sent, and do not hesitate TO say that there
is not a town, city or State throughout the
length and breadth Of these United States
that could or would submit to have their
charter or constitution altered, without var
rant Of law, or consent Of the people 70 be
governed
Yet gentlemen. in the face Of these stub-
born facts, and the natural consequences
that would grow out Of them, a few weeks
ago il Was announced BY thirty or forty Of
the late Convention first in secret conclave,
and afterwards in the journals Of the city,

SEVEN days before the riot in New Or
leans a correspondent OF the Cincinnati
Commercial, evidently well-posted in what
was shen taking place, wrote, over the in
itial letters V. H., as follows:
"The State militia is about to be a real,
substantial institution, and no longer a rebel
army. Under the Constitution and laws of
this State all able bodied male citizens,
without regard 70 race or color, form the
State militia. Steps are being taken 70 en-
force this omincntly just and proper provis-
ion. Let every colored citizens do his duty
in this particular with cheerfulness. Let
him prepare himself at once for this duty.
let this be the subject dppermost in the
minds Of the loyal citizens at every meeting
held from this day out Six thousand white
citizens and ten thousand colored citizens,
honorahly discharged from the great Union
army, are located in this city. They arc
well drilled, and will make an imposing dis
play. Confederate Guards, attention y

THE METROPOLITAN POLICE COM
MISSIONERS.

We announced two days ago that it was
understood the Metropolitan Police Com
missioners would offer no resistance to the
regular course Of law which had been in
voked to settle the questions involved
Yesterday the Radical organ stated that the
Commissioners twill obey and respect the
authority Of the Court from which the in
junction issued, until such time as the case
can be legslly and properly adjudicated."
This graceful yielding to the law is quite
commendable, and we heartily approve of
IT, 4 pure, upright learned and incorruptbie
judiciary is the chiefest bulwark of the citi-
zen in times Of political excitement. The
only danger is that, with the power Of APP
pointmeat, partizan Judges may be foisted
upon the people, whose chief work is to
Cypress and destroy the essential rights of
the citizen. We should have much more
respect for the assurance above given, if it
were not for the knowledge we have, that
a most disingenuous and disgraceful effort
was being made, at the time the paragraph
was written, to displace the able and honest
Chancellor who granted the injunction, and
10 place in his seat some one who would pro-
badly decide in favor Of the validity Of the
law, because it COMFORTS with his views Of
Radical policy.
We sincerely trust that this new scheme
Of displacement viii not succeed.

FROM NEW YORK.
The Cholera Increasing-The Soldiers
Riot ut Fort Schuyler.

New YORK, Aug 3.-The cholera con-
tinues to increase in this city, there being
twenty-four cases and ten deaths reported
yesterday. A case of cholera occurred at
Castle Garden, and some feeling is exhibited
at the proximity of the Battery Barracks
Hospital to Brooklyn. The report is more
favorable Although there has not been
much difference in the number of cholera
cases, yesterday sixteen cases and three
deaths were reported The cholera has
broken out in the Kings County Truant
House. There has been seventy-seven con-
firmed cases of cholera in Kings county
since the 9th inst.
At a meeting Of Board of Health yester-
day evening, resolution was passed, re-
quiring the authorities having charge of in
stitutions on the Island, to forbid inmates
coming to New York during the prevalence
of cholera.
During the month of July, just passed
20, 1872 emigrants have been landed at this
port from Europe.
In the affair at Fort Schuyler, young
woman was shot dead, and a man severely
beaten. 1t appears a party of soldiers, be-
longing to the lst United States artillery, in
a bar room attacked ALEXANDER ELLIOTT,
claiming that he had been involved in a
quarrel with a friend of theirs. He pro-
tested that he was not the man, and ran for
his life, after having his arm broken, and
escaped. The soldiers went to his house,
when they shot his cousin, ELLEN Hicks.
The soldiers were arrested.

AN IMPORTANT LEGAL QUESTION.

Attorney General STANBERY has under
consideration a question of importance and
Of vital interest TO the present nominees who
have been rejected by the Senate, and who
now seek commissions to take Office imme-
diately. The question engaging Mr.. STAN
BERY's attention is; Can person who has
been nominated by the President for an Of
fee. and whose nomination has been re-
jected by the Senate, be appointed and COM
missioued by the President to tie same office
after Congress shall have adjourned? The
proposition was considered briefly in Cabinet
session yesterday, and referred TO the Attor-
ney Geneaal for his opinion. Il has been
generally conceded that the President has
the power to appoint and commission officers
under the circumstances above stated, and
no one seriously doubted the right and
power Of the President, until Senator TRUM-
BULL made the point last winter in the dis
cussiCn Of the HENDERSON amendment to
the Postoi6ce bill, the object Of which was
to cripple Mr.. JOHNSON in the disposition Of
the offices.

IHE extravaganza Of Congress naturally

Of all sections The pocket nerve is the

Of Congress TO rob the people under the
specious guise Of taxes, the Secretary Of the
Treasury demonstrated against their reckless

10 them, aflor reciting thoir schemes:
The mere statement Of these facts ought
81 suffice az an argument against any imme-
diaie increase of our enormous burden Of
debt and taxation.
Il needs no gin Of prophecy, or trained
financial intellect, 90 determine the result
Of a persistency in such a policy, for ma
tons like individuals have limits to their
resources, and nations like individuals may
have their patriotism taxed beyond endu-
rance. A reduction and equalization Of ma
ti0nal taxation, has therefore, become not
merely expedient, but imperative.

To all Agents of the Associated Press
The general feeling here is that two cable
reports per day of twenty words each are en-
tirely inadequate, and we should like a gene
raj expression of the views of leading
editors upon this subject Our editors will
try to act so as to accommodate the views of
editors Of leading papers elsewhere, until
the cable across the Gulfof st. Lawrence is
repaired or a new one laid. We shall suffer
delay in the reception of reports, but in the
course of few weeks, perhaps even after
this week, we shall receive two regular daily
reports, it is hoped in good season respect
lively for evening and morning journals.
