NEW ORLEANS, March 5.-The sew.
enth precinct station was quietly taken
possession of last night by the McEnery
militia. No resistance was offered by the
metropolitans on duty there, and no effort
has been made to-day to dispace the mill
tia.
1t is understood further aggressive
movements will be made by the militia
tonight. For twenty squares tonight
only one policeman was found on duty.
They have been withdrawn from their
beats, and concentrated about the stations
around Mechanics institute.
At half.past O'Clock tonight squad
of perhaps fifty men attacked the third
precinct station, firing into the building.
They were repulsed by the police, but were
quickly reinforced by about three hundred
and fifty men. These were attacked by
General Badger with two hundred police
men and piece of artillery, and for about
five minutes a sharp battle of musketry
ensued. Both parties maintained their po-
sition during this time, but at the second
discharge of the cannon the militia retreat
ed through Jackson Square, and half an
hour later the police relieved their COM
rades who remained during the conflict
within the building. One man, Mr..
Hartman, was killed, and several were
wounded.
