The people were very much excited over the
capture Of Orleans. They are still firm for re.

fortunate dissensions, however, daily occur

iety refused to obey orders. Ducrot and
blanchard had violent quarrel and the latter
had been displaced by another officer.
IL ls rumofed that Lafere has been retaken
