!, armed bodies assembled on the same
call rs your mass meeting"
The committee then retired and soon
: after reported the result Of their inter-
view to the meeting. The people were
then advised to go home, get theirarms
4 and ammunition and return To assist
the White League, who were then
under arms to execute the plans that
would be arranged for them.
The people then quietly dispersed.
Afterward quite large number formed
in procession and marched up Camp
street. The people seem to have re-
sponded with alacrity to the advice
given them by Dr. Beard, one of the
z speakers at the Canal street meeting
! 3P. M.-Armed men were stationed
at the intersection of all streets on the
south side of Canal street, from the
river to Claiborne street. About p.
NJ. II body of Metripoitans of about
appeared at the head of Canal street
and took position, General Longstreet
commanding them, accompanied by
an orderly, who then rodeup and down
Canal street, ordering the armed citi-
zens to dispense.
Some desultory firing soon after oc.
cured along Canal street, and some
few casualties are reported on both
/ sides. The Metropolitans are reported
to have broken at the first fire, the
citizens capturing one piece OF their
artillery.
: The citizens are now building bar-
ricade along POydras street, having
, already captured the city hall and
taken possession of the fire alarm tele-
graph. The police telegraph lines are
worked by the battery from the city
7 hall and have been detached there
: from, rendering them useless.
There Is one company of United
States troops Eere, but they remain at
. the custom house, quiet spectators of
= the lively scenes being enacted before
+ them. The state authorities seem to
have great confidence in their ability
to deal with what they term an armed
4 mob, and say that unless the people
g disperse there will be bloody war to-
: night.
s p. M.-The streets above Canal
street are well filled with armed citi-
zens. The impression now prevails
+ that no further attempts will be made
' by the Metripolitans to dispense their
opponents who handled them so rough
+ ly this afternoon. The city is remarks
l ably quiet throughout and no further
conflict isapprehended before morning.
Most of the barricades are made with
street railroad ears.
r Six or eight citizens and twenty or
1 thirty Metropolitans We're killed in the
y fight this afternoon and many wound
, ed on both sides.

pointed Yhomas Eoylan, the well
J known detective, CHIEF Of police. Mr..
, Roylan is now organizing d force.
Iu extra Picayune contains the fol
lowing: HAg might have been ex-
pected after the the depigiye victories
, of yesterday and the consequent de-
moralizaton of the Kellogg forces, OF
whom twenty or thirty were killed
and aa MANY more wounden, the finish
this morning was q very brief and UNI
: exciting affair. About ialf-Past eight
. o'clock the state house waa occupied
by the citizens forces and by nine
o'clock the third precinct station and
Kellogg's armory.-the last stronghold
of the radical governmeDt-"Was after
sharp little assault captured and APP
propriated.
SC ends the Kellogg regime. Big,
inflated, insoisnt end overbearing, it
collapsed al one toncf o. hohest iadig-
nation and gallant onslaught" Its
boosted armament dissolved before the
furious rush of Our Giti2ens, Its sneer-
ing, thieving, INSCRIPTIONS chieftqipn
hid like moles and its mercenafies Heq
like stampeded cattle. A dozen gal
liant lives, worth more than all the
sneaking carpetbaggera and ruffian sol
diery that ever squattcd on states
4 carcass, have been sacrificed on the
altar OF liberty. The blood of gentle
men and patriots 'bas .ayed The stones
OF our thoroqghfares, arg sae
shock is sveF, The hehogg
dynasty has passed INFO black and
bitter memory, and Louisiana tBt1iEi4s
out its borders is to-day free.
