evidence that he intended stealing the

what subdivided the current after leaving

did divide the current, the iron being a

changed in their course by the moisture

Louisiana Affairs.

NEW ORLEANS, July l4-After the in
auguration yesterday, Governor Yarmouth
sent acOmmvnicstion 10 General Buchanan,
officially notifying the latter of the adop-
ton of the l4th amendment, and the inau-
guration of the Governor. On receipt of
this communication, General Buchanan
issued an order, of which the following is
thesubstance;
The Commanding General having been
officially notified Of the ratification of the
18th amendment of the Constitution of the
United States by the Legislature Of Louis
lana, on the 9th inst, it becomes his duty,
under an act Of Congress which became
law June 25th, 1868, and an order of the
General Of the Army, to announce to the
people Of the State, and to the troops under
his command, that the provisions of the
reconstruction act Of Congress cease 20
operate in the State Of Louisiana from this
date; military authority will no longer be
exercised under reconstruction acts in said
State, and all officers commanding posts or
attachments are forbidden TO interfere in
civil affairs. On proper application by
the civil authorities to preserve the peace,
or under instructions duly received from
the Commanding General of the district,
military law no logger exists. The civil
law is the supreme order of the State. All
civil officers acting under military sp-
pointment will transfer their offices and
every thing pertaining thereto to their
successors, who have been duly elected and
who have been qualified under the laws of
the State. The order concludes with con-
gratulations to the people of Louisiana up
on the restoration of the State to the
Union, and expresses good wishes for the
| future.

New York Items.

NEW YORK, July 14-The heat yester-
day was said to be the most intense that
has been felt in New York for fourteen
years. A very large number of persons
fell in the streets insensible from the heat,
two of whom died. During the day thirty
seven persons were taken to Bellod HOspi-
tai, and three of them died. At three
o'clock yesterday morning the thermOme-
ter stood at 81 degrees, at P. NJ, at 81,
and midnight at 50 degrees.
Seven young girls went into battle last
evening, at the foot of Fifty.sixth street,
East river, when one Of them got beyond
her depth, and in her struggles to escape
drowning, dragged three others into like
danger. A boy fourteen years old, named
Frank Breck, on hearing the screams
of the girls, came to their assistance, and
succeeded, by persistent diving, in resCuing
three of the four. The other, named Pow
ers, was drowned at the boat.
The committee TO investigate the eligi-
gibility of members Of the Legislature are
making slow progress.
Nashville union and dispatch. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1866-1868, 1868-07-15

The Huntington Vest Tennessean, a
Radical sheet, charges the financial
agent of tho State with the trouble about
paying the interest on Tennessee bonds.
The Memphis Post another Radical
sheet, charges, upon the authority of "a
very reliable source" that the whole
trouble about Tennessee finances in New
York city was the work ofia clique of
spectators hostile to the loyal govern
ment of Tennessee, among whom were
the Presidents Of some railroads in this
State, who had not paid the interest due
the State from their roads" These are
very grave charges, and should have been
made only upon the most unqueStioned
authority.
