WHAT THE LEADING REPUBLICANS PAPER
IN THE L. s. SAYS.
New YORK, Jan. 6.-The Times, in
an editorial on Louisiana affairs, SAYS :
For ourselves, we must say that the use
which was made Of United States troops,
seems to have been an extreme exercise
OF power, and one for which the Presi-
dent, who is primarily responsible for it,
must find it very difficult TO show author
ity.
New YORK, Jan. THE following
address to the citizens of New York has
been issued:
TO the Citizens Of Ne,o York:
To-day's press dispatches of the events
in our sister city Of New Orleans present
the most marked attack upon the rights OF
American citizens, which has been made
since the establishment of our Govern
ment. The legislative body, PeaceAaiy
assembled, has been broken into and dis
persed by federal troops, acting under or
ders from the President Of the United
States. To give expression to the out
ragged feelings which every citizen must
experience at a crime, happily, in :his
country, so unparalleled, against the
underlying principles OF our government,
we ask you to assemble, irres pective Of
party ties, at Cooper Institute, Monday
evening, January II, at eight o'clock.

The evening Post (Republican) says
that interest in the proposed indigna ton
meeting is deepening.
The signers to the above call inclu lie
Republican as we'll as Democratic names
w. c. Bryant is the oldest free-soil editor
in the United States. Sidney Webster Is
the son-in-law of Secretary of State
Fish.
New YORK, Jan. 8.-A monster
meeting is to be held Monday night
The call embraces several thousand
names.
The Herald IndependenD calling at
tention to the meeting says /: The Pres-
dent cannot afford to ignore or undervalue
such demonstration, supported by such
eminent names. The President is
bound to pay some regard TO the public
opinion of the country
The Times says we learn from our
correspondent at Washington that the
President will send a message to Con
gress to-day or tomorrow on the Lou
isiaDa difficulty, and that it will be I'M
usually pointed. We hope it will not be
pointed with bayonets like Sheridan E
dispatch, which seems to have produced
an outbreak of Indignation from one
end of the country to the other. Some
of the people in Washington must be
curiously incompetent to gauge public
feeling or they would never have allowed
that mad dispatch to have seen light. 1t
is much to be desired that some mem
bers of the Government would take pains
to acquaint themselves with the tone ard
temper OF the country.
