4 &. w WASHINGTON, ~. VI, september It.--lhere
Is no change In the Louisiana situation, and
but few kilograms have been received blythe
Government to-day from that State. Every
preparation is being made to reinstate the
Kellogg government at the expiration of the
| five days mentioned in tho Presidents pro-
clamation, and Monday next viii End 8 large
force of troops In Louisiana, as well as sew
eral gun-boats before the city Of New Or
leans, to carry out this purpose, should II be
| necessary to use force.
| The friends of the Penn government here
express the hope that there will be no COLI
sion, aud that the State will be surrendered
to the Federal power under protest. They
argue that this course will gain more SYM
pathy for the oppressed people of the State
than any other. The Kellogg usurpers are
daily becoming more unpopular, even among
prominent Republicans, as well as with the
President and members of his Cabinet, and
|! if the State is surrendered by Penn rather
than resist the Federal power, this course,
| il is claimed, will command the sympathy Of
the whole country; On the other hand, if
! resistance is made, they will lose hosts of
friends throughout the nation and postpone
the day of deliverance from the oppressor's
rule. $..ia@ea
The carpetbaggers now here are anxious
for collision between the Penn government
and the Federal forces In Louisiana, as such
action will incense the whole North and do
much toward giving them new lease of
power, which has been gradually failing for
the past four years.
| Every obscure southern paper printing
anything against the Administration which
caa be construed as ineendiary is paraded
before the President and members of the
Cabinet as representing the public opinion
of the South, and no opportunity is lost by
them to embitter the authorities here against
the southern people.
| The signature of Collector Casey to the
statement of last night that peace and quiet
reigned in New Orleans is not relished mere
| bv Louisianians who are adherents Of the
| Kellogg government, and they represent
that Casey was bullied into signing the Gis-
patch. :
No information has been received In official
quarters here from New Orleans which leads
the authorities to believe that there will be
any conflict on Monday.
1t is rumored tonight that kilograms have
been received here from that city to the eff
feet that Penn has agreed to surrender the
State to the Federal power. and will so tele-
graph to the President. Representatives OF
Louisianians here who sympathize with the
Penn government tonight telegraphed to
him to surrender the State government
rather than have any conflict with the Fede-
raj forces. TIMoN.

showing the quiet installation of their Off
GERS in u large number of parishes. No op-
position appears to have been made in any
