I YESTERDAYS NOON DISPATCHES.

Emile Perrier, the banker, is dead.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Ihe Sendte-M
Bayard is speaking on Louisiana affairs.
1t WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-The New York e!
o press hence, ct 8 p. N. yesterday, collide
. with freight train. The switch tender
, blamed. The mail and express cars, with th
!. mail agent (Flamin) were burned. No pa
IS sengers were seriously hurt. The entil
n northern mail from Washington, includin
3 the accumulated days mails from the Soutl
n excepting one pouch and canvass for Bait
4 more, was destroyed by the burning of til
J. postal car.
i It is believed that the mail agent, Tamin
q was crushed to death before the cars too
f fire. He was young man about thirty wear
OF. age, and son Of the local post-ofice agen
i in this city.
NEW York, Jan. 8-The Herald hasa doub!
. loaded editorial calling attention to the cal
for meeting here Monday evening, and in
fiuential names attached thereto. It saws
The PRESIDENT cannot affect to ignore or un
dervalue such demonstration, supported b.
such eminent names. The President is bounii
TO pay some regard to the public opinion O.
the country. ls l-n
He ought not to be confident that he is
right, when the best sentiment Of the best
classes condemns him. It is at least his duty
to pause and reflect, aud to re-examine the
grounds Of his unprecedented action.
The President will soon see that he is not
supported by the sentiment of the country,
and that his unparalleled course arouses the
apprehensions of the people as no other pub
nc event has done since the firing on Fort
Sumter ee5 e ~ s. 7 7
'sThis respectable and influential call ought
to convince the President that there is
limit beyond which no public officer in this

The Times says !: We learn from our CORE
spondent at Washington that the President
will send message to Congress to-day or to-
morrow on the Loui lana difficulty, and that
it will be unusually pointed We hope that
It will not be pointed with bayonets, like
Gen. Sheridan's dispatch, which seems to
have produced an outbreak Of indionafion
from one end of the country to the other.
Some Of the people in Washington must be
curlously incompetent to guage public feeling
or they would never have allowed that mad
dispatch to have seen light. It is much to be
desired that some members of the Govern
ment would take pains to acquaint themselves
with the tone and temper of the country.
1t the Cabinet had been prudent it would
have put Gen. Sheridan's ferocious message
on or under the table, or into the fire, and
SAID nothing about it, instead of that Belknap
shonld telegraph back to Sheridan.
''The President and all Of us thoroughly
approve your course" which was one Of the
most unnecessary and foolish blunders ever
committed by the present Government.
We hope that the Presidents forth |
coming message will be little more credita- |
BILE to him, his Cabinet, his party, and to the |
people Of the United States, who, if they
also thoroughly approved of Sheridan's |
course, would stand disgraced before the |
civilized world" ..I
ST. LOUIS, Jan. IA number of prominent
merchants held meeting at the Merchants |
Exchange to-day to consult as to whether &C |
ton should be taken regarding affairs in Lou
lslana. Although most of them present |
strongly sympathized with the people Of New
Orleans, they deemed it inexpedient to bring
The. matter even in its comm ercial bearings be-
lore the Exchange, and concluded that The
agitation Of such questions would only tend
% create division among the members
II Is likely, however, public meeting will
% called Tor Saturday evening to give public
y pression to the feelings and opinions upon
he subject.
The Legislature organized TODAY.
Gov. Woodson's message is q lengthy docu-
asnt, devoted almost exclusively to State
fairs.
Iouchlng the Louisiana question, the Gov
rnor takes strong ground against the Kellogg
government and Federal interference. and {
rges the Legislature to adopt resolutions ex-
ressive OF the feeling of indignation felt BY |
llssourl at the policy pursued by the Presi-
ent and Radical party. IL
