MONTGOMERY, ALA, November 3O.-
ihls morning, detachment cf seventy
eight United States cavalry marched to
point twenty yards from the capitol
grounds and bivouacked. Intense ex.
citement followed, but learning that the
troops were intended for mere posse
comitatus, and not to drive the Legisla-
tnre from the capitol, the excitement
subsided somewhat. The Legislature ut
the capitol passed bill and sent it to
Gov. Lewis. but he refused to receive it.
A Joint resolution was passed, raising
committee to communicate the facts of
the situation by telegraph to the Govern
mont at Washington, and appointing q
delegate to present written statement
OF the case to the President. The mem
bers Of the Legislature express great
confidence that tho President will sus.
tain them when the facts are laid before
him. In answer to q committee of the
capitol, Governor Lewis, yesterday, re.
piled that two bodies claim his recogni-
tion: that the members CT the other re-
oeived majority Of the votes cast, aud
that he could not recognize the Capitol
Legislature, because, if the persons who,
he said, did not receive majority were
included, the body would be without
quorum. The Court House body did
nothing to-day, but has been in secret
session considerable portion of the day.
