,fficial advice from Louisiana.

the coup de etat Is July confirmed
within the five days allowed by
the proclamation it is supposed
the government, under the new
auspices, will be fully established.
The best opinion is that at the end
of FIVE days, finding all quiet, the
government will let things ripple.
No one here knows Of any consti-
tutional machinery by which the

stored.
New Orleans, Sept, 15.-Albert
M. Gunter was among the citizens
killed yesterday, and Sam B. New
| man, Jr., has since died of the
wounds he received. Funerals
this afternoon of the citizens kill
ed yesterday were largely attend
ed but there was no usual display.
/ A dispatch has been sent to
President Grant requesting him
Ito recognize the McEnery and
Penn government which is in
quiet and peacible possession of
! this city and State.
/ Washington, Sept, 16.-The
Louisiana revolution has staggar
ed the Administration. They will
do nothing Within five days.
There can be no doubt but their
present intention is to restore. 1t
is said that Grant is very angry.
The tone of Northern papers is
perplexing, many OF tho most
i ultra republican papers arguing
that Louisiana has exercised the
devine aud conceded right of rev.
olution. During the five days it
| is both hoped and feared that the
white people OF Louisiana will not
| dull device by GOODNESS or delay.
