his side of the compromise.
A Radical Ku.KIux story Nailed.
NEW IBERIA, LA, Oct. T.-Col. De
Blanc is here to-day. The statement con-
cerning affairs in St. Martins, published in
certain papers yesterday, purpoting to be
based on dispatches, is utterly false. Neither
at the time nor since the arrival of the
troops have the citizens been under arms
in any part of the parish. All are quietly
gathering their crops. E. II. LOMBARD,
r. S. PERRY.
NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct. THE above
refe-s to reports published yesterday morn
ing to the effect that large body of armed
men, with three pieces of artillery, under
command of Gen. DeBlanc, were encamped
at Bedux Bridge.
stormy Session Of the New Board
The Advisory Board held stormy ses-
sion to-day, lasting five or SIX hours. Mr..
Packard introduced a resolution stating
that While Leagues are still being organ
lied and are armed, and calling for their
disbandment. This resolution was reject
ed and the following, offered by b. T.
Burke, was adopted:
Whereas, it has been reported to the Ad-
visory Board that armed organizations have
recently been dueling in the streets Of New
Orleans; and whereas, the effect Of such
demonstration in any part of the State is
calculated TO create apprehension and in
timidation in the minds Of the people Of
the State; and, whereas, the continuance of
such demonstrations would be in violation
of the true spirit and intention of the agree
ment creating the Advisory Board: be it
Resolved, That the Advisory Board de-
clare the absolute necessity and propriety
of preventing such demonstration, and re-
duesting such immediate action as will ne
lieve all citizens from apprehension that
would in any way interfere with free, full
and fair registration and election.
Kellogg Brewing Fresh Outrages.
The Conservatives of this city are greatly
excited by fears that Gov. kellogg will
sign bill passed by the Legislature last
winter, providing new charter for the city
and giving the appointment to him Of all
city officials from the Mayor down. In
der the decision of this State, the Cover
nor can hold bill passed at one session Of
the Legislature, until its next annual meet
ing without either vetOing or approving
it. For nearly eight months it is
charged the Governor has held this bill in
suspense over the heads of the people and
the municipal government. The biennial
election for Mayor and Administrators
takes place Nov. 20 next, and candidates
have Just been nominated by the COnserva-
tives for these positions. They claim the
city is Conservative by a large majority
and thep will be elected unless the Cover
nor interferes. Under the decision above
referred to, the Governor may sign the new
charter bill even after the election.
The Citizens Committee publish an ad-
dress, foreboding serious troubles if the
will of the people be thus thwarted.
