The Louisiana Case,

The failure to issue our paper OF
the regular day enables us to give
the latest dispatches in regard t.
our political troubles. From the
Pjcayune we take the following:
WASHINGTON. Feb. 25.-No policy
in respect to Louisiana has yet beer
determined on, but there Is a prospect
If early action by Congress or the Presi
dent. If Congress fails to legisIate.
the President will send a special mes

row.

is the most desirable, it will be my duty,
