A REBEL APoLOGY-GREAT EXCITEMENT IN
NEW ORLEANS.
NEW YORK, March IA New Orleans spe-
cial, dated the 9th inst, says the New Orleans
Times makes left-handed apology for the
cheers which the rebel fire department gave
Gen. Hancock and Jefferson Davis, and says,
"if this be treason make the most of it,"
Gen. Hancock's policy has reduced the city
currency to 16 per cent. discount, an increase
of per cent.
Since the firemen's parade so much excite
ment prevails among the poor who hold the
city notes that fears are entertained of serious
troubles tonight. The Democratic Conven-
ton, now in session, praise Gen. Hancock, of
course.
Another dispatch says: "There is great ex.
element here in consequence of grocers, mar
ket-men and others refusing to receive New
Orleans city money. Some fears of a riot are
entertained, and brokers st. Charles street
have locked up their valuables and money"
The printers of the South are each setting
one thousand ems to-day for the benefit of the

THE RECONSTRUCTION CONVENTION.
RALEIGH, March 1.-THE Reconstruction
Convention last hight adopted an article on
homeseads, claimed by some to be retro. ac-
tive, allowing one thousand dollars in value OF
property from attachment. To-day the prn-
cipal feature of interest was the passage on the
third reading of the article on finance, which
requires the Legislature to make provision
by adequate taxation for prompt and regular
payment of the interest on the State debt,
and forbids the creation of any new debt, un-
less a bill creating the same shall levy a tax
to meet the accruing interest annually, and
forbids to loan the credit of the State for any
new work unless authorized by direct vote Of
the people.
Mr.. J. w. Holden of the Standard was
elected printer to the Convention.
