The New Orleans Affair.


New YORK, Sept PA special from New
Orleans contains long address OF the Com
mittec OF Seventy OF that city 10 defence OF the
late action against Kellogg, claiming justltcal-
ton in consequence of the misru G TO which
they allcge the people have been subjected
After reciting the circumstances under which
Kellogg secured the Governorship, and stating
that all hopes OF the people of fair election
in November were likely to be disappointed by
the manner in which registration was being
carried out by Kellogg's officers, it being diff
cult tor naturaized citizens to obtain registra-
ton, and many white persons clearly entitled
to registration being refused, arbitrarily, while
colored people were furnished registration pa
pefs on which, 10 some Instances, they could
vote in several different wards, the address
says:
IAN appeal vas made to the President on
the 9th Of September, of which no notice was
taken, and the committee is inclined to believe
it has been suppressed and never permitted to
reach the eve Of the President. This appeal
says the people have been struggling two years
against odious usurpation, and are now remit
ted to the ballot as the only means of relief;
that under late order troops have been placed
under the direction Of the Department OF JUS
tice for use 10 Louisiana and other States;
that 10 Louisiana they are at the disposal OF
the u. S. Marshal, an active supporter OF kel-
logg, aud with them under his order it is man
ifest that fair election is impossible. They
protest against this. The people have no OBJ
jections to troops coming, If they will secure
good order and fair exercise of the franchise,
to both white and black.
The appeal, in conclusion, says: IF the
President will remove the present Marshal and
appoint some one not identified with either
party, enjoying the confidence of both, they
will not object to troops coming"
Regarding the White League, the address
says it was formed to assist 10 restoring an
honest and intelligent government to the State
Of Louisiana, and by union with all other
good citizens to maintain and defend the con-
stitution of the United States and State and to
maioain and protect our rights; and the
rights Of all citizens required it. The
white peo) pie of the State, are stripped
of every n cans of defence, being threaten
ed by formidable oath bound league of blacks,
which, under command Of cunning and un
scrupulous negroes, might, at any moment,
plunge tfem into what they were most anxious
to avoid-a war Of races.
The address in conclusion remarks that the
people saw the impossibity of securing fair
registration and election, and determined to
demand kcllogg's abdication, relates to the
circumstances of the revolution and subsequent
reinstatement of kellogg and appeals to
the people with the hope that they will consid-
or calmly the situation and devise in their
wisdom some method of relief for the unhappy
