The New ORLEANS RIoT.-W. H. G..

now in Washington, having published a
letter defaming the Louisiana conven-

To the Editor of the National Republican,
S1R,-A communication published in

H. G. King, gives an incorrect represent
alton Of the condition OF affairs and
the cause Of the recent massacre in New
Orleans. Its Incorporate tone discloses
and defeats it's purpose. Nevertheless,
knowing the history to which it refers,
/ deem it my duty to say that in my
opinion it is,unjust to the loyal men of
Louisiana and unworthy of credit.
The convention was the ostensible and
not the latent cause of the outbreak. 1t
was peaceful and lawful assembly.

ties of the United States, in New Or
leans, would have secured its adjourn

The LOUISIANA CogvENTIoN.-Had the
suggestions Of the lamented Lincoln to
the Louisiana Convention of 1864 been
needed, says the Boston Journal the
present troubles, perhaps, might have
been avoided, but it is not yet too late
to return to his counsels. The follow
ing are his words:
"ExECUTIvE MANSION,
Washington March Is, 1854 I
Hon. Diichael Hahn:
My DEAR SIR congratulate you on
having fixed your name in history as the
first Free State Governor of Louisiana
Now you are about to have conven
ton, which, among other things, will
probably define the elective franchise.
Ibarely suggest, for your iyate con-
sideration, whether some of h Colored
people may not be let in, as, for instance
the very intelligent, and especially those
who have fought CALAMITY in our ranks,
They would probably help in some try.
ing time to come, to keep the jewel o.
liberty in the family of freedom. But
this is only suggestion, not to the pub
lie, but to you alone.
Truly yours, A. LINCOLN"

Hampton, late of the Union army, car
ried him out to the river, shot him dead

was soon followed by the alarms of the

whistle. A large number of our citi-
zens hurried to the place of the fire
which proved to be in the ~" portion of

owned by Mr.. c. NJ. Haven, and oCcu-
pied by F. D. Gilson Esq. The firemen
wese prompt to the rescue and sue

the main building, though in a much
damaged condition. The 81" part was
entirely consumed, together with the
furniture and appurtenances therein,
though the more valuable portion of the
furniture-that in the main building
was mostly saved. The origin Of the
fire is unknown, though it is supposed
to have caught from a swinging gas
burner. Mr.. Haven is insured to the
amount Of 81, 200, and though we have
been unable to learn the amount Of Mr..
Gilson's insurance, we believe his loss is
fully covered. I'D
