Although the heavens were dark and the
clouds gave tokens of rain, large audience
assembled at the St. Charles last evening.
and Lotta had not been on the stage mo-
ment before the clouds produced by the
atmosphere on the minds of her audience
had been dispelled. and sunshine reigned
supreme. Lotta, by her charming manner.
her exquisite voice and characteristic style,
soon wins the hearts of her audience an d
their admiration is expressed in the long,
hearty rounds of applause that interrupts
her during her performance.
Last evening she appeared with more
than usual sprightliness and grace. The
characters she assumes would be for any
other actress awkward, and would be a
dead thing to an audience: but in Lotta's S
approximations, every one sees Lotta. She
is indeed the life, the soul of the piece.
Mark Quinlan gives promise of rising
genius. His character of Ludocic IStuyre-
su,,t was a success His idea of the Dutch
voyage was immense and elected consider
able applause, especially in his duet with
Lotta, when he was encored three times.

ALL QUIET AT THE STATE HOUSE
Removal of the Militia and Police
WHAT WILL BE THE NEXT PRETEXT

At an early hour yesterday all of the mil
itia, who had been on guard at and 10 the
vicinity of the State House, were relieved
from duty, and permitted to return to their
ordinary avOcatiOns.
As soon as all the Metropolitan Police
had breakfasted. they were relieved of their
much dreaded Winchester rifles and the
great majority ordered to their BEATS
None were kept on duty in or around the
Senate or legislative chambers except the
usual number to restrain unruly lobbyists,
such as have always been on duty. At the
earnest solicitation of friends, who were
alarmed by the stopping of his carriage the
night before. special guard of dozen
men with muskets were retained in the Gov
ernor ante room. These will doubtless be
sent away to-day.
A few police are yet on duty at the inter
section of Canal and Common with Dry
ades street, but free ingress and egress is
permitted to all.
Now, this excuse is lost to them the peo-
pie are curious to know what will be the
next one cOncOcted by peripatetic legisla-
tors for not returning to their seats and to
the work so greatly needed by the State to
be performed.

GRAND PROGRAMME.

Customhouse- Democratic Coalition.
We are reliably informed that the coali-
ton between the Customhouse Republicans
the following basis:
First-Au to absent themselves until ali
Democratic Senators could arrive, and
until Colonel Carter could succeed, by the
use Of writs Of the United States Commis-
siOner, and the arrest of members of the
House, to unseat seven Republicans, and to
seat six Democrats and Customhouse Re-
publicans.
This would make a change of thirteen
votes. It would eat off the seven majority
against Colonel Carter, and give him the
control of the House by a large majority.
SecOnd-When the Democratic Senators
arrived, and the first movement in the
House had succeeded, a movement on the
Senate was to be made. Lieutenant Gov
ernor Pinchback was to be removed,
and Senator Ray was to be put in
his place. This, it was known, could
not be accomplished without the bribery
of one or two of the Pinchback
men, which it was said could he easily
done, as the CustOmhOuse is said to be we'll
filled with money for political purposes. So
soon as this should be cOnsummated, the
House was to adopt, without any regard to
the law, resolutions requiring committee
of investigation, aud without regard to
whether there was any reason to believe
him guilty, articles of impeachment against
the Governor by which he was to be sus-
pended, and Senator Ray was to take his
place.
In the meantime the CustOmhouse and
Democratic combination was to be strength
ened in the Senate by the admission of Mr.
b. F. Jonas in place of the late Senator
Pierce, and Mr.. Walter Rogers in place of
the late Senator Fish. The fact that these
gentlemen were beaten. one by 800 majority
and the other by 1900, and the further fact
that neither Jonas or Rogers ever made the
slightest pretensions to the seats of the Sen
atOrs during the time of their lives, had
nothing to deter them from carrying out
their purpose. When this was accomplished
the Senate would delay or refuse to try the
the sixty days session. leaving the Gov
ernor suspended until after the next elec-
ton.
This was not all. The Governor and
Lieutenant Governor having been disposed
of, the Attorney General was to be sus-
pended by impeachment, and Mr.. E. How
ard McCaleb was to be put in his place. Mr..
Dubuclet, State Treasurer, was to be sus-
pended. and Mr.. Ezekiel Solomon put in his
place. Mr.. Conway Superintendent of Ed
ucaton, was to be displaced by Mr.. Rogers
or Mr.. Lusher; and 50 the revolution was
to be made complete. The mob were all to
be put on the police in consideration of
their valuable services in reform, and the
Democratic party was to be at once tri-
umphant by the aid of the federal patron
age and the United States army.

BREWSTER, CARTER AND PACKARD

then Chinee.

then Chinee.
Speaker Brewster and Messrs. Carter and
Packard encountered Wednesday night, and
the conversation which ensued afforded
fair test of the honesty of the two parties.
Nr. Brewster, expressing his anxiety for
settlement of the troubles so that the inter-
ests of the State might be preserved by nee
essary legislation. and disavowing any am
bilious desire to retain the place to which he
had been so unexpectedly called, offered to
resign all claims to the Speakership if Car
ter, also, would neither to go near the
House until the other members had settled
the matter among themselves.
Carter declared that his friends would not
permit him to do so.
Mr. Packard then stated to Mr.. Brewster
that Carter would resign if first permitted
to take the chair and call the House to
order
Mr.. Brewster wanted to know if Carter
calling the House to order
And here Mephistopheles showed his hand
again, for Mr.. Packard said NO: that Mr..
Carter would want an hour or two, or per
haps to run over to the next day
Mr.. Carter once escaped punishment by
falsely pledginG to resign: if he is allowed
to do more mischief by means of the same
mendacious trick, we greatly err. Of
course, if he should regain the chair under
such terms as proposed, he would announce
a list of temporary committees. have i'm
parchment resolutions introduced, or play
some other dodge in the effort to disorgan-
ize the House, and again firmly fasten HIM
self upon the public treasury. He can't do
it. The people want reform.

indulging in first ward gin. Several were
seen staggering about the streets in the
lower part OF the city. Six Of them were
found highly exhilarated in Printing House

take care of themselves, they were taken
to the TOmbs. In the courtroom they
shouted and gesticulated like maamen, and,
as far as they could make themselves in

of them even fell on his knees before JUS

All was, however, Of no avail, and the poor
