The Louisiana Troubles,

New Orleans, Sept. 81. Gen. James Long
street, commander-in chief of the Kellogg
army, says the State House and Arsenal sur
rendered for want of ammunition to defend
them, and places the responsibility upon At

tia appropriation of $4,000 made by the last
Legislature.
Judge Dibble, in letter to the Picayune,
says he fred two shots from a window in the
Custom House at those who deliberately fred
at him while standing there looking on, but

New York, Sept. 81. The Posts Washing

to-day that it was not the intention of the
President to couhtermand at present the or
der for troops to proceed to Louisiana. A
large force will be kept in the State until all
vestiges of the late troubles disappear; but it
is very probable that some companies now
stationed in the South will be ordered North,
on account of the fact that they are composed
mainly of ex rebels and are not to be trusted
in the event of civil disturbances.

A Riot in Aspinwall.
TWO MEN WOUNDED.

Aspinwall Sept 2l. A serious riot accom-
panied with bloodshed, took place here this
afternoon between Italians in the employ of
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, and
oops on duty here.
One of the soldiers nnarmed was on the
wharf, and were chased off by some Italians
who threw stones at him. Arriving at his quar-
tiers he reported the case, when an officer and
men went to the wharf to arrest those who
had made the assault. Reaching the gate of
the wharf the Italians fired two pistol shots at
the troops without result, when volley was
fred in return which MORALLY wounded one
Of the Italians, and seriously wounded ia
maican negro.
The excitement was intense and additional
,roops were sent for to keep the peace.
The California passengers who arrived just
alter the occurrences. were placed safely on
board the Acapulco. That none were hurt is
wonderful as a volley was fired just outside
the gate and directly upon the wharf.
Mr.. Corwine, general agent, Commodore
Gray and Supt. Thompson were just outside
he line of fire, and the wharf was filed with
.aborers.
Matters are quiet now, but the troops will
be welcome.

have them at once. The shipments indicate good
trade, but the cases contain smaller number Of
goods than formerly. Some descriptions OF work
which have never been shipped In packages con-
tanning less than Eve dozen put up this fall in
cases OF two dozen each, and some buyers want
them in twelye-pair cases. The demand for thick

Deacon Church, long since gone to his rest
and reward, lived on "Church HILL" in this
city, and was a deacon in good standing in
''Parson" Tappan's church. On one occasion
the deacon, generally correct on all matters,
made fatal mistake in regard to the day of
the week. getting behind time precisely one
day. One Monday morning he started for
church with his entire family all dressed in
their chest bib and tucker" He noticed all
along the route that the farmers were at work
in the field, and thought it very strange.
Coming to the stores he found them all open,
and people buying and selling and getting
gain, as though the day were an ordinary one
for business, and not the holy Sabbath. He
begun to think that either he was out of his
head or that all men were sinners. Driving
into the toll bridge, he ventured to ask
kincaid what all this non observance of the
Sabbath meant. He was informed that it
was Monday and not Sunday. but the good
old Deacon had to drive up to the closed
church before he would believe it.

became so hot that the robbers took TO the
mountains forty miles from this place. Their
horses were completely used up. The citi-

pursuit, AMI the robbers were entirely sur
rounded. A party of recruits left here at
midnight for the scene of action, aud it is
probable t at all the robbers were captured
