3 ceipts, 81, IA rs; amount expend-
ed for permanent improvements,

new shops, and new roof of cell
house, S11, OSS.72. There are 455
convicts in the prison. During the
year 20 were pardoned by the Gov.
and l by the President; 4 escaped;
z were remanded for trial, 2 died,
and 125 were discharged by expi
ration of term. The conduct of
the prisoners is said to be good,
yielding to discipline, which has
been maintained, with rigor. The
ratio of increase of convicts is over
20. The sanitary condition of the
prison is represented as excellent.

1t is with deep regret that | have to
announce to you the exis tence in this
State of a spirit of definance to all
lawful authority and an insecurity of
life which is hardly realized by the
general government or the country at
large. The lives of citizens have be-
come so jeopardized that unless some
thing is done to give protection to the
people all security usually afforded by
law will be overridden. Defiance to
the laws and the murder of individ-
uals seems to be looked upon by the
community here from a stand point
which gives IMMUNITY to all who
choose to indulge in either. and the
civil government appears powerless to
punish or even arrest it. / have to-
night assumed control over the de-
partment of the gulf. (Signed)

General Emory has not been dis
placed, nor will General Sheridan
assume command except in case of
actual hostilities. A rumor was
current yesterday to the effect that
it was proposed to organize an
assassinating party to meet the
Lieutenant General upon his ARR
val. We have no very good opin-
ion of the White Leaguers of New
Orleans. but there is little proba-
bility that they are disposed to
undertake the job OF killing the
hero of the Shenandoah Valley.
They prefer to operate against
defenseless negroes and white Re
publicans; as at Coushatta, Grant
Parish, and Vicksburg It is be
ieved now that the organization of
the Legislature as returned by the
State Board will p-oceed without
interruption. The Senate is Re-
publican, but the House is doubtful.
Some Republican members of the
House from North Louisiana have
notified their friends that they dare
not proceed to New Orleans for
fear of assassination. This fact
shows that the threats of the
Shreveport Times have not been
without effect.
