The End Of the Louisiana InsurrectiOn.

The reinstatement of the Metropolitan
or Kellogg police IN New Orleans, which
ii was feared might occasion trouble, took
place without disturbance on Saturday By
a popularity Of Louisiana law the police Of
New Orleans are under direct control Of the
Governor Of the State. and the retirement OF
the White League police, ana unresisted re
turn Of the Metropolitans, j. regarded as
strong evidence that the surrender Of the IN
sureeuts Is complete The telegraph also
brings word Of the surrender Of the McEnery
parish officials 10 Franklin, La. TO the kel-
losg officer. This indicates the full rein
statement Of the Kellogg STATE government
throughout the State. and the end. for the
present at least, Of the revolution
The result l. unquestionably due, first
and foremost. t. the firm stand taken by
the President With such parleying with
rebellion As Buchanan permitted al the out
set OF the great rebellion with such recog-
milton and encouragement a. the White
League Democracy would have received
from a Democratic administration. had the
Democracy been in power at Washington.
the scenes enacted at New Orleans week
ago would before this have been repeated In
other Southern States The Southern Re
publicans. not massacred outright, would be
fleeing TO the north The White Leagues
would be masters Of the situation, and the
alternative Of the destruction Of the Union
or a general civil war would again be pre-
scented to the loyal men OF the land. But
the prompt orders ofevery available regiment
and non-clad to New Orleans. brought a
speedy return OF reason To the reckless
leaguers Their outbreak was an expert
ment. They intended to find out to what
extent the general government would yield
to bold and locally successful revolt, and
they have obtained the information. They
have found no gloved hand extended in ad-
mOniti0n. They have seen that the quiet
man in the W hite House i not 10 be trided
with. They have seen. we think from the
attitude Of the North, that the victors in the
last war do not intend TO drift into another
at present. The outbreak has accomplished
nothing The Kellogg State government Is
fully re-instated, with two thousand United
States troops at its back to help main
tain order. And we shall be surprised
if the result Of the business, notifying and
e1asperating a it must be 70 the reckless
leaguers, does not have on the whole a good
effect. throughout the turbulent portions of
the South.

The Republicans OF New York have done
the wisest thing possible in renominsting
the State ticket entire, Dix and Robinson is
ticket which cannot be beaten.



There seems to be no lack of candidates
this year, for the various Offices, in the two
Houses OF the Legislature. and no particu-
lar danger that good men will not be select
ed for the places. If the choice for speaker
should fall. as it is not unlikely to, on Hon.
Ii. II. Powers, of Morrisville. the Hosse
viii certainly have a capable presiding
officer. Mr.. Powers has clear head, a
strong voice. experience as legislator and
parliamentarian, and has repeatedly shown
himself 10 be skiliul, courteous and able
presiding officer. 1t will be no disparage-
ment to the other worthy candidates, if the
choice should fall on one so well qualified
for the chair.
For clerk of the House D. NJ. Camp,
Esq. of Newport, will be leading can
didate. Mr.. Camp has been clerk for
three sessions during one Of which he was
prevented by illness from performing the

day were good, and the officers Of the socie-

ESSEX JUNCTION. Sept. Is
Our county fair was brought to a ter
minus, to-day, not by fair conclusion,
but by foul weather. Rain fell heavily dur
ing the latter part Of the night, and nearly
all day. Probably not score OF persons
were on the grounds. aside from those nav
ing property to see to. Early in the day 1t
was decided as useless to continue the iar
longer, and it was pronounced closed. Inc
entrance fees to the races were refunded,
and the officers of the society gathered at
the junction House. and proceeded to close
up the business, as far as was possible. The
reports OF the awarding committees were
completed, and the premium list made out
and many OF those who had been awarded
premiums called at the officers rooms
during the day, and received their money
1t is gratifying to know, that, IN spite OF
the very unlavorable weather from the
first, the fair has proved success The

face of the discouragements
To the officers great credit is also due Tor
the excellent order on and about the
ground All gambling schemes and sharp
hawkers we're kept away and the police reg
ulations were 50 strict that the few who
undertook to slylY sell the ardent were
brought to summary justice and grief
There were many interesting features OF
the fair, and many articles on exhibition
which We intended 10 notice, and
should have done 50, only that while waiting
for few hours Of suitable weather to make
a thorough inspection Of the different de-
partments in order. the breaking mp storm
came on ard the fair closed. Our readers
can judge by the premium list, which We
publish to-day in full, something Of the
magnitude and excellence of the exhibition,
and may, also, see that an unusually large
sum Of money was paid IN premiums
Everything being thus encouraging, our
farmers may return to their farms, our

housewives TO their domestic occupations, to

The Louisiana Outbreak

The situation in Louisiana seems full OF
possibilities of the grsvest character There
is thus far no open defiance of the authori-
ty of the general government but the reck-
less men who have executed the coup d'etaf
must have seen that there was but one
course open to the President. Congress

between the Kellogg and McEnery factions.
the President was compelled to decide
between them He decided in favor of the de
.tdct0 governor, Kellogg and having thus
far recognized him, the government must
see him through. The white Leagues"
must know tins; and we fear it Is an alter
native, against which they have provided
some desperate resource. They have begun,
as before. by ''sprinkling blood in the
faces" of the Southern people. But there
is this difference, that the Southerners have
once tasted the horrors of civil var, and it
is diihcult 70 believe that any considerable
portion OF them are ready to rensw the a.
