WASHINGTON, Mnrc8 2.-But for the
useless and suicidal alibustering Of the
last two days, the President would have
practically settled the Louisiana case
yesterday by ordering Gen. Augur to
abstain from any Interference with the
civil affairs OF the State and to use his
forces only to protect the property of
the United States. This action WAS de-
layed by tho behavior OF the filibusters,
but the count being now finished, these
orders may be issued this afternoon Or
tomorrow.
Cabinet speculations arc now all the
rage. Bill Chandler says that neither
John Sherman, Hale, nor, In fact, any
man OF the seven or eight most promi-
nent mentioned will 20 into the Cabi-
net. There Is some talk OF Gen. John
M. Harlan, OF Kentucky, for Secretary
OF the Interior; of Alcorn for Post
master General; Of Robertson, of South
Carolina, for the Navy; but there Is no
longer any belief that Hayes will call
any Southern Democrat into his Cabi-
net.
The extra session will be called to
meet about tho 10th OF May. It is
doubtful IL the Democrats can elect the
Speaker, and 1t Is certain that neither
party can control the House by caucus
rule.
The closing scenes Of the long count
were very tame and spiritless; many
members Of the House were absent
from their seats when the final declara-
tion was made, and the general feeling
seemed to be Of relief on the one side
and apathy on the other, when Ferry
announced that Hayes and Wheeler
were elected. ~ - g.
Mr.. Hayes arrived. here at 9:4O this
morning and Immediately proceeded to
the residence of Senator Sherman.
where he will stay over Sunday. There
was no demonstration, Mr.. Hayes hay
ing expressed desire that none be
made. BUELL.

were received. similar report was
printed In o small evening paper here.

from Gov. Nichols denying these re-

would seem to be worth while for Gov.
Hayes, II he becomes President OF the
United States, to take the advantage Of
new departure for The South. Well,
what should he do? The question
does not answer itself. 1t is u hard
question. We believe that on national
affairs the States Of South Carolina and
Louisiana are on fair vote, honestly
Republican. There is abundant room
for doubt whether those States are
not, us to local affairs, decided Dem
ocratic. It might be the wisest thing
Hayes could do to recognize the
Hampton and Nichols governments.
This would stop the warfare
that binds the whites together. Some
apparent advantages would slip away
from the Republicans. They would
gain some real advantages. There are
not State offices enough to go around.
Perhaps by this time there are Southern
men, white and intelligent, who would
not think 1t o disgrace to hold O post
office. II would not be necessary to send
carpet baggers South to fill the Offices.
and Federal offieehoider would not
necessarily be scalawag. This marks
progress. The eolored citizens will be
glad to have peace, and stick to the Re-
publican party. How large q percentage
of white men In the South would have
to deny the infallibility of the Demo
cratic party in order to place that Or

".~s z New Orleans, March 2, 1877.
To the People Of Louisiana
Il congratulate you upon your law
abiding conduct during the past months
OF unprecedented anxiety and trial.
The history Of that period, 30 far as
you are concerned, has been but the
steady exhibition Of the highest civic
virtues.
The situation Of your affairs at this
moment demands, more than ever, the
exercise Of combined firmness, modera-
tion and devotion to.principle.
We now have the assurance that our
great Commonwealth is about TO re-
sumo her rightful position In the Union
OF States. and In the control OF her own
internal affairs.
You must, therefore, continue to
maintain tho public peace, refrain from
all violence, and leave to those who are
charged with duties Of govern ment the
responsibility of enforcing the laws.
In the future history Of our State, let
lis recognize and respect The fact, that

Let us honestly accord to each citi-
zen, without any distinction. the full
measure Of his rights and the equal
benefit and protection of the law, to the
end that all, under the blessing of God,
may contribute TO bring about 40 era Of
good feeling, peace and prosperity.
Now therefore, I, Francis r. Nichols,
Governor OF the State OF Louisiana, do
issue this my proclamation, enjoining
upon all persons the maintenance of
peace, the observance Of law. and O
proper regard for the rights Of ell per-
sons; and recommend the cultivation
of good feeling. and spirit OF harmony
among all classes.

In circulation in Democratic circles ID
that Mr.. Tilden intends to test the q ues-
ton Of the legality OF Mr.. Hayes title to
the Presidency by quo DGrranto pro-
ceedings In the Supreme Court OF the
United States, thus putting the whole
court on the record one way or the other.
and bringing on an authoritative adj
judication as concerns the meaning OF
the electoral bill under which the Com
mission acts. Judging from the uttes,
ances OF Democrats who are in Mr..
Tildens confidence, he fs opposed to
any factious delays In completing the
count, wishes to have the Democratic
majority Of the House submit In a
dignified manner to the declared result.
and is possibly already looking forward
to possible nomination Ia 1860. One
of his confidential advisers stated yes
terday that Mr.. Tilden had positively
declared to him, In view Of the Oregon
case, that no honorable man could epar
take his seat on such title to the preg~
idency as Mr.. Cronin furnishes, but
that, as compelling the Republicans to
abandon their programme of not going
behind the returns, the Oregon case
was an excellent joke. ''I don't know
what Pelton may have DONE" said thig
gentleman decisively, "but I know
that Mr.. Tilden had no hand i'm
manipulating the Oregon CASE" The
same gentleman states that Mr.. Tilden
told him. while the Louisiana Returning
Board was In session, that he could have
the State Of Louisiana by paying for .it;
In fact, that 1t had been definitely
offered to him for consideration. "My
answer" said MIR. THden, "was that
Louisiana belonged to me In any event.
and that / should not buy my own pro-
perty."
