New Orleans, Jan. 5. = General
Sheridan sent the following dispatch
to Secretary Belknap to-day: 81
think the terrorism now existing in
Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas
could be entirely removed and con-
fidence and fair dealing established
by the arrest and trial of the ring
leaders of the armed White Leagues.
If Congress would pass bill declar-
ing them banditti, they could be
tried by a military commission. The
leaders ofthis banditti, who murdered
men here on the l4th of last Septem-
Der, an also. more recently, at Nicks-
burg, Mississippi, should, in justice
to law and order and the peace and
prosperity of the southern part of
the country, be punished. 1t is pos
sible that if the President would issue
a proclamation declaring them ban
ditti, that no futher action need be
taken, except that which would de-
volve upon me. The city is very
quiet to-day; no unsual demonstra-
ton in any quarter. The military
still occupy the State-house.
New Orleans, Jan. "a full meet
ing of the Cotton Exchange to-day
unanimously adopted protest "a
gainst the allegations obtained in
Lieutenant-G Sheridan's dis
patch of yesterday to the Secretary
of war as being not only false, but
as evincing the spirit of partizan
instead of the candor which should
characterize the utterance of an Off
Ger commanding the army of the
great nation. They say he evidently
confined his investigation and in
quiries to those whose interest it was
not only to falsify facts, but to pro
mote that spirit of lawlessness with
which citizens had been falsely
charged. Resolutions indicting the
State Government and appealing to
the people of the United States for
justice We're also adopted, and SINH
lar action was taken by the Mer
chants Exchange and by "a meeting
OF Northern and Western men at the
st. Charles Hotel tonight.
McEnery has telegraphed Presi-
dent Grant his protest against the
action of the United States military
authorities in torcibly interfering in
the organization of the Legislature.
Chicago, Jan. 6.-The TrIbune'S
New Orleans special says the man
ner of the organization of the anti
Kellogg Legislature was clearly un-
justitiable, but the subsequent or
ganization of the Legislature was
just as clearly illegal. Fifty-four
members present are necessary to
constitute a quorum of the House.
After the anti-Kellogg party had
been elected by the military, Kellogg
proceeded to organize, the old Clerk
holding over. Vigers called the roll
a second time and only fifty-three
answered. Knowing that fifty -four
were necessary, however, in order tC
proceed to business, Nigers announ-
ced "Fifty-four members have an
swered to their names, there is 8
quorum present, and the election
of Speaker will be proceeded
WITH" or words to that effect
The Speaker was accordingly elect
ed, and in order to conceal the fac
that no quorum was present, vote
was made by reclamation. The
calling of the roll would have de
veloped the truth, which would hav,
nullified the proceedings. They
now claim that the first roll call, tC
which over one hundred members
answered, was the roll call contemp
lated by law. That the proceeding
were for time interrupted by {
revolutionary attempt of anti Kello
/ giles to obtain the upper hand. Tha
when that revolutionary attempt wa
suppressed the House proceeded t.
business, the minutes showing NOR,
than requisite number present. 1t
| difficult to see which party has play
ed the boldest game, but the resul
is that the United States troops ar
sustaining a usurping and illega
Legislature.
