NEW YORK. January l6- The Louisiana dele
CATION to Congress sent the following to Nichols,
yesterday: Pay no attention to Packard's procla-
nation. Hold your present position. If Pack
ards militia attempt to intefere with YOU or your
officials, dispense them, but under no crcumstanc
es must there be any conflict with the United
States troops.
A Washington despatch to the World saws those
who have seen the president say be protests he
has not recognized the Packard government in
Louisiana, and does not intend to, notwithstand-
ing the nature of his telegram to Augur.
The Worlds New Orleans despatch says as far
as ascertaned, there is not the slightest weaken
ing of the resolution of either people OF legal su
thority.
If Packard makes an attempt to carry out his
threats, his forces will be ubited but it is scarcely
thought the legislature, police and militia would
dispense on publication of his proclamation, but
Of this there Is not the slightest prospect.
NEW ORLEANS, January l6.-l2 NJ. Gov.

ton upon Gen. Augur for the restoration of the

The suit brought by Dwight G. Parker against
the Portland Publishing Company, to recover
$25 900 for injuries received BY falling through
the elevator in Printers Exchange sixteen months
since, will be called in the Supreme Court Port
land, Wednesday morning. Messrs. A. A. Strout

Beef has been somewhat frmer at wholesale
within the past few days, and choice is now held
at 81 to IS, while good COW beef is quoted at
$3.50 to 81. The rise Is caused In part by the
heavy storms at the West keeping back the
stock trains, and partly by the demand for for
eign shipment. Potatoes have advanced of late
IN the Western markets, owing to the bad wealth
ar for transportation. The live stock market in
Boston for 1876, presented interesting figures.
OF cattle there were l5S, $3.50, which has been ex-
ceeded only in two years-lS73 and 1874. The
sheep were 1882, very small number; in
1860 they were about half million. Veals 49,
OH, also small they were 90 900 in 1873. The
fat hogs were only 352,2O2 against S3o, 2o3 in
1873, but Sc 900 more than last year. Pigs were
only 5000 against $26 900 three years before.
1t appears that we were eating less meat in 1876
than common. Probably the high price Of some
varie ties and the hard times had to do with this.
Seven-eighths of all the cattle now come from the
West; and Vermont supplies more fof Boston
than all the other New England states. OF sheep
Vermont supplied 81 $50, and ali the New Eng
land states only three-quarters IS many. From
the West 1870 were received. The hogs and pigs
were also largely from the West, which quarter
gives US meat and bread and material for cloth
ing. Maine, which once drove large numbers
of cattle to Brighton, for several years has bought
more than she has sent. But this year less West
ern beef than usual is taken in this market. A
good deal Of stock is carried" here from Somer-
set county, and considerable neat stock is driven
from Washington county to this vicinity.-l Lew

THE INDIAN WAR.
Successful Expedition of Gen. Miles
Against sittihs Butt.

NEW YORK, January 10. A special to the Her.
aid says General Miles, colonel of the 9Th nian-
try has just returned after a most successful cam
palgn against Sitting Bull aud other hostile
chlefs, who moved to the north Of the Yellow
stone river in October last.
His command numbered 339 men, marched
over oOO miles ia 40 days, defeating Sitting Bull
IN three distinct engagements, and driving him
back ut tery routed and demoralized to the yell
lowstone River, which he will probably cross end

who Is In the Big Horne country with an lm-
mense camp OF hostile Cheyeunes and Ogallalas
Miles was compelled to return for supplies, but

fugitive chief, and if possible prevent his junction
with Crazy Horse, after which he will proceed
without returning 10 the cantonment to attack the
latter.
Sitting Bulls force numbering Owe, os)l lol-
ges, and more than 1000 vel aIu.,d " ilIors,
was completely routed and scattered. There is
new but little doubt of his capture or sure nder
at an early date, If transporton, which is neces-
sary for pursuit, will hold out loi a few weeks
longer. The last fight with Sitting Bull occurred
on the 18th of December, on the cad waters of
Red Water creek. On that day Lieut. Frank D.
BALDWIN, with three companies of the 9Th infan-
Try, attacked his camp and completely routed
him, capturing most OF his lodges and a large
number of his ponies, and destroy ing all the robes
meat and provisions. The sutierlngs of Gen
Miles command during the campaign wire very
great.
Yesterday the mercury stood at &c degrees be-
low zero. The same despatch says five Sioux
chiefs were bounced upon by crow scouts, killed
and scaiped before they were seen and recog-
nlZed by the garrison at the cantonment. They

Peter Noonan, porter of St. Julian Hotel, was
arrested to-day for systematic plundering of the
house. Five hundred dollars worth Of stolen
goods were found at the residence of his sister, in

Noonan has for long time been suspected, and
the proprietor accordingly secured the services Of
Captain Matthew Adams, the detective, who at
once took the matter in hand. Last evening Ad-
ans put himself on the watch, and about IL o'clock
Noonan went out of the house. Adams cautiously
followed and saw him stop at the basement win
dow, on Plum street, raise it. and take from the
room a large fat goose. The detecective then
traced him to his sisters residence in Damphy 5
block. This morning Capt. Adams, armed with a
search warrant, visited Noonans sisters and there
made haul Of at least $500 worth of property
that Mr.. Ward has recognized as plumber from
the hotel. There were meats of all kinds, cloth
ing, glassware, cutlery, boxes Of starch and blue
ing and, in fact too long a catalogue to enumer-
ate. Noouan's sister will probably be held as an
accessory.

pleasure. The stage performances were excellent.

literally patronized. The dance the latter part of
the evening was participated in by large COM

superb music of Hannagsn's Orchestra. The
