New ORLEANS Dec. Z, 1872.
The day has passed without disturbance or even
special excitement, except in the immediate pres
cnce OF those objects likely to create such feeling
j have seen Collector Casey and Others including
the United States Marshal, who have furnished me
with a clear understanding OF the application Of
the Enforcement act, under the provisions Of
which the present condition OF affairs has been
brought about. l found collector Casey at leisure,
and with much courtesy he proceeded to unfold TO
me the proceed ings OF the conflicting parties in
this State since the war. did not want this par
tial State history, but waited patiently until the
present period should be reached. Even then the
information was neither grave nor startling.
Taken in connection with visit to the United
States Marshal's Office, there was strong favor
Of partisan feeling in such intercourse, which
rather impaired my confidence in the Collectors
urbane administration.
COLLECTOR CAsEY's OPINIONS.
] had formal interview with Mr.. Casey to-day
npon these matters. His views are very clear and
decided. His anticipation in regard to Mondays
organization is that enough members in sympathy
quorum This is the point OF most peculiar interest
now in our present political situation and much
anxiety is felt in quarters not demonstrative as to
the final result determined.
BOvEE BEFORE THE CIRCUIT COURT.
The case OF Judge Elmore, arraigned for contempt
before Durell's Court was continued until Mon
day. After the conclusion Of the contempt cases
the Court called up the case Of BOvee Vs. the
Judge Of the Eighth District Court, asking for a
mandamus to compel the issuance OF writ of
possession to the Office OF Secretary OF State. BY
the consent OF counsel the matter was submitted
and the Court Immediately thereupon ordered the
mandamus to be made peremptory and the writ
to issue forthwith After hearing arguments from
John Ray, w. w. King and J. II. New the Court
announced that both cases would be taken under
advisemcnt in the Eighth District Court. The
portals OF this temple of justice were last night
guarded by posse of deputy sheriffs, and this
Of . raid by ex-Judge Dibble, but up to twelve
O'Clock to-day no demonstration had been made
THE TRooPs-GENERAL EMORY INTERVIEWED
Current rumor having constantly multiplied the
number of troops your reporter, about noon, con-
.c,uded to visit General Emory at headquarters.
We found him seated at table, in undress uniform,
bustiy writing and evidently disposed to be very
reticent Upon being informed that the HERALD
desired to be accurately posted in regard to the

lows:-
RBPORTER-How many troops have yeu quar-
tered in the city, General Report fixes it at
