EEw ORLEANS, Jan 20.-Sone excite

.. Neuopalitans in the vicinity of Mechan-
les Institute. All the Carterite Senator'S
took their seats in the State House A res
oution declaring the la:e extra session ie-
gal, and consequently confirming Pinch
backs election as President and Lieuten-
ant Governor, was adopted by vote of IL
to l6, Pinchback having the casting vote.
This action was regarded as a decided tn
lmph for the Warmothites.
New ORLEANS, Jan. 2l-Carter has is
sued an address to the people, stating that
he will, on Monday, at IL: 80 A. NJ, through
his sergeants-at- arms, proceed to remove
from the hall Of the House of Representa-
tives AT Mechanics Institute, and the ap-
proaches thereto, the Metropolitan police
and armed men, and place said House with
its organization, as it existed at the ad-
journment, Jan. 4th. He requests the
people to close their places of business and
keep off the streets in the vicinit-. War
moth having ignored Speaker Carter, this
programme indicates a conflict. The Car
terites are said to have 1900 men.
New ORLEANS, January, 22-ll A. NJ
People are assembling on Canal street,
about Dryades Nearly all the police have
been withdrawn from their beats, and,
armed as infantry, are concentrated about
the Mechanics Institute. Several lines are
thrown across Dryades street. Several
companies of infantry are also on duty.

Just made Il speech to several thousand
persons at the Clay statue lie stated that

General Emery that the United States
troops were in readiness to prevent a con-
fiict, ceunselied forbearance, and requested
his friends and the people to maintain their.
organizations for future action. No con-
hict is expected to-day. The stores along
Canal street, from Rampant to Canal are
generally closed.
After announcing the contents of the
dispatch from Gen. Emery, Carter said
" Thus the United States troops and Gen.
Emery are used to perpetrate infamies
which would drive anv northern or western
state into revolution, which will be unearth-
ed when the investigating committee ar-
rives."
The cry "Let US fght-we are going in
anyhow" was raised by the crowd. Carter
replied that the men who let their passions
overcome their reason would ruin any
cause. Il forbid their acting under my
commission to take a step which would
bring them in conflict with the veteran
troops of the United States" He then
ordered his men to rest on the Custom
House.
1t is understood that Gen. Emery has
been instructed, in case Of emergency, to
protect private property from piIlage, but

SERIOUS ACCIDENT AT HARTFORD.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT AT HARTFORD
A very serious accident occurred in the
Morris Chair Factory at White River
village in Hartford two weeks since.
William Ide, young man of 81 years,
who had been employed but two or three
days in the factory had his clothing
caught in running shaft, and before it
could be stopped every rag of clothing
even to his boots and stockings was torn
from his body, and very nearly taking
his life on the spot. His whole body was
bruised, one knee partially dislocated,
both bones broken in the right leg,
and rupturing the arteries, so that the
leg below isn't nourished, and at last ac-
counts amputation was deemed necessary,
and his recovery considered doubtful.
Since the above was in type, we learn
that young Ide belonged in Sherburne,
and that be survived his injuries but
eight days.
