WAR IN NEW ORLEANS.

The long smouidering volcano OF war
day morning a call was issued by the
business men of the city for q meeting
on Canal Street, for the purpose OF Civ
ing expression to the popular protest
against the recent alleged outrages
by the Kellogg government, involved
IN the late gun seizures, which began on
Tuesday last, when Kellogg's policemen
seized, at Canal Street store, several
cases of guns, on the pretext that they
were stored there for account Of g polit-
ical organization, and We're intended to
further riotous purposes. On Thursday
and Friday, other similar gun seizures
were made, and in each case from the
stores IF private individuals. The open
ing paragraphs in the published appeal
read as follows
For nearls two years you have been the silent but
Indignant sufferers Of outrage after outrage, heaped
sIpon you by usurping government. One by
your dearest rights have been trampled upon until
at last i'll the supreme height of its insolence this
to deny you that right. solemnIy guaranteed by
IKE very constitution of the United States which, in
article two Of the amendments, declares that the
light ofthe people to keep and bear shall not
I've infrnged''
In RESPONSE to the call, ten thousand
men assembled and were addressed by
various speakers. It was resolved to
send a committee to Gov. Kellogg, ask
ing him to abdicate, which WAS done
The Governor would not listen to them.
and shortly thereafter several thousand
nen were marching upon theState House
with determination to overthrow the
State government Before advancing
far they were met by large force of
police and negroes, the result of which
was fight, IN which twenty-five were
killed and many wounded The negroes
broke at the first fire and ran. thus leav-
ing the field to the citizens The me-
tropolitans and negroes sought refuge in
the custom house.
ID. i. Penn, candidate for Lieutenant
Governor in 1872, called upon the peo-
pie to arm and hurl the administration
from power. He declared the purpose
of the White Leaguers was TO bring on
a military government by the precipi
tated conflict. considering such B gov
-esnment better than the one Of misrule
under which the State is now laboring.
The Leaguers promise protection to the
aegroes in all their rights and privileges,
and ask them to join with them. Sew
--eral companies of .. S. troops witnessed
the fight, but took 20 hand in. Kellogg
was prepared for the conflict, having
mustered up an army of about 1900 men,
together with the police, which was
armed with Winchester rides and had
also at command "a field battery Of light
guns.
Kellogg has telegraphed to Grant for
troops That military government
will be established in Louisiana there
can be no doubt.

COST OF KEEPING A HORSE IN
THE CITY. 81

The question of horsemen as to the
cost of keeping a horse in the city is
very indefinite, and viii admit of vari-
GUS answers. Many of those who have
been in the habit Of keeping horses for
pleasure, find it cheaper to make an az
rangement by which they can be oh
tanned from livery stable. According
to the returns of the passenger railways
it would seem they have 1850 horses in
use, and that during the past year these
horses have consumed 474, $50 busels of
corn, and 1921 tons of hay. This
would be an allowance of trifle less
than one hundred bushels of corn and
two and three-quarter tons of hay to
each horse. The items of care and
stable rent, ETC., are so variable that we
cannot state them.
We clip the above from Coln'Gn's
Rural World, and suggest that the
average horse that is reported as eat
ing one hundred bushels of sound corn
in ffty-two weeks, probably is In the
case of man who sells a part of the
grain for beer or whisky. Such things
have happened.

THE OUTLOOK.

Editors Union and American:
The season has come when the farm
ers, the direct wealth-producirg class,
are absorbed in thoughts and plans for
the crop of 1874. What to plant, how
to plant and cultivate for the best re-
suits are the absorbing subjects of
thought and conversation. What will
pay best is the inquiry. No crop paid
well or satisfactorily last year-what
will be most likely to pay this year?
These are questions that each can best
determine for themsef. As each man
more fully understands the conditions
under which he labOrs than any other
can, therefore each can best solve these
INQUIRIES for himself. with the light of
experience before him as a guide.
The time is also at hand when aspi-
rants for Office are beginning to agitate
what they call political questions. The
great masses, the producers of wealth,
have a common interest. They have by
their labor to provide for the subsist-
ence of the whole population, and bear
the burthens Of taxa lion. Why, then,
! would ask, should they be divided by
party aspirants, seeking self-elevations
What is the remedy? How shall We
do better in the future than
we have done in the past? l would
say discard professional politicians

From the New York Bulletin, Jan. ID.
The market has been little excited and
quite variable as to prices during the past
week At the close, with gold up to l2b,
and a general speculative spirit abroad, the
cotton market shows bUOyancy, with a
brisk purchasing for the early months.
Some addition has recently been made to
our estimate Of the cotton crop. The an
moving dismay of those who, on Friday
last, found their estimates in print, re-
vealed how much extravaganza had been
INDUCED in-not very tangible so long as
merely uttered, but having decidedly
awkward look SO soon as printed. We
have already stated that the range of these
estimates was from 100000 to 100000
bales. Taking the average Of these, and
recalling former estimates, We have the fol-
lowing:
