Citizen Sotliers-Your commander thanks
you for the bravery and devotion to duty
which you displayed in the sanguinary action
which restored authority and legitimate Gov

of an outraged people to do your
duty, you most nobly responded The diff

character. A thor oughly organized
standing army, quartered upon you, and
most lavishly paid with money wrung from
your pockets, presented most formidable OBJ

was measured by your impoverishment and
ruin, constituted, it is true, the only resource
of your enemy, but 50 completely drilled and

Meeting of Bank Presidents.
Their Interview with Gen. Emory.

A meeting Of the Bank Presidents was held
yesterday, and they constituted themselves a
committee to wait upon Gen. Emory for the
purpose OF obtaining information as to what
steps he intended to take.
The General received them politely. but
told them that, of course, he could not show
his orders, but he would inform them that he
came here with orders to demand the surren-
der Of the arms and property of the State
which had been seized by the insurgents, as
he was pleased to call them, and that if they
refused to give them up he could but regard
the act as one of resistance to the authority of
the United States government, and that be
would be obliged to enforce the order at all
States troops in the city.
He stated, also, that Gen. Brooks had been
appointed to receive the arms and property
belonging to the State. Gen. Emory men.

posed by Gen. Emory to turn over the police
to the Mayor as soon as arrangements could
be made. The surrender was made to the
United States, not to any OF Kellogg's satraps.
Formal possession will be taken of the
State House in few minutes, by squad I'M

What effect this has upon the grave ques-

accept as an alternative the levying Of war
upon our government by the military forces
OF the United States under his command.
As have already said to Gen. Emory we
have neither the power or inclination to resist
the Government of the United States.
Sir, transfer to you the guardianship Of
the rights and liberties of the people of the
State, and trust and bel;eUe that you will give
protection to all classes of our citizens.
Ruled and ruined by corrupt usurpation,

The Situation.

Last night quiet reigned throughout the
city, and there seemed to have settled down
on it spirit Of rest. At II clock the streets
were almost deserted, except by the city po-
lice and newspaper men, and there was about
them an old-time look that was really inspir-
ing.
The arsenal and State House were occupied
by United States troops. Our reporter visited
the former place last night at late hour, and
found it closed, but had no difficulty in gain
ing admttance, and was very cautiously re-
ceived by the officers in command of the
guard, Ca t. Hubbard and Lieut. Creevy, who
both seemed to like their quarters. They re-
ported, nothing new"

A PLAN OF ADJUSTMENT.
Proposition from the Radical Side of the
House.
A New Governor to be Chosen.

Among the many conferences that were held
yesterday was one between Casey, Packard,
Joubert, and other Radical leaders, and seve-
raj distinguished citizens as representatives of
the people.
A plan tor compromise was submitted by
Packard, which embraces several propositions
OF startling nature, and includes no less an
accomplishment than the designations of Rel
logg and Antoine.
1t is proposed by the Custom House that
Kellogg shall name State Senator, who
shall Immediately resign; that committee OF
equal numbers from the Democratic State
Central Committee and the Republican State
Central Committee shall jointly select a can
didate for the vacancy, who shall be voted for
or against at a general election to be called
by Kellogg within ten days.
Should he be elected, Antoine shall imme-
diately resign, and his position be filed by
electing the new Senator to be Lieutenant
Governor. Upon this being accomplished
Kellogg shall resign, and the Lieutenant Gov
ernor become Governor of the State thus
securing quiet change of the government.
We are informed that farther consideration
of the proposition will be resumed this morn
ing but We are at the moment unable to say
what result will be attained
We give the above as we received it, and
believe it to be perfectly authentic.
In order to carry out this plan it will, of
course, be requisite for Kellogg to be rein
stated long enough to order the cleo lion, con-
vene the Legislature and await its action
The proposition emanates from Casey and
Packard, and was made with the full knowl-
edge on their part that Gen. Emory had been
instructed to overthrow the Government of
the people
