IMPORTANT FROM LOUISIANA.
New ORLEANS, April l0-A conference
of the city members of the fusion General
Assembly and committee of presidents of
the independent clubs of New Orleans,
issue an address to the people. Following
are extracts: Public opinion throughout
the Union is against the usurpation. Our
only danger, if there be any, will come
from ourselves II the people of LOuisi-
ana will sanction, by obedience and nc
quiescence this government they will
give il the only solidity it can ever &C.
quire. 1t is only by our owh submission
that our cause can be defeated. We re.
commend that the people of the several
parishes, for the purpose of most effectual
resistance to this usurpation, and for mu-
tual aid and defence, to join the peoples
league of Louisiana by the formation of
parish councils in correspondence with
the central council in New Orleans.
We must remember that there can be no
de Jacto government as against de .jure
gov eminent in State that the only way
by which the Kellogg usurpation can be-
come established as a government is by
acquiescence of the people that the issue
presented in the Louisiana case to Con-
gress and the people of other States is
neither party nor sectional one, and for
this reason we have the support of large
and influential section of the Republican
party, as well as gentlemen which com.
posed the Liberal party in the late Pres
idential election. hH.taH
The people of New Orleans are not
paying taxes-cannot, in fact, pay them
nor are they giving any recognition to the
usurpers.
