LOUISIANA.

The opposition to the Hayes policy
in Louisiana has yielded. The State
is given over to the Nichols party.
Tie leader of the Packard party was
Warmoth. On Saturday last he left
the Packard Legislature. Below we
give the dispatches on the proceed
ings of that day:
THE NICHOLS LEGISLATURE.
New Orleans, April 2l.-The
Nichols Legislature was reinforced
by Senator Cage and Demas. The
latter explained the causes which led
to his desertion. Messrs Demeris and
Cont, of St. Landrey Cole, of St.
John; Simms and Dickinson, of ST
James, and Mael, Of Iberia, were
sworn in, making
10 RETURNING BOARD MEMBERS.
In the House seversl returning
board members who were not elected
bv the election commissioner returns,
have resigned their claims. Murray,
Sergeant. at arms of the Packard
House. was at Odd Fellows Hall this
morning, where at noon about 500
people gathered in the lobbles and
street Some of the Republicans who
went over say they hold the balance
of power in the matter OF selecting a
United States Senator.
New Orleans, April 2l.-At 2
o'clock great excitement prevailed
The Republican members dropped ia
one by one during the morning, and
at $3.50 this afternoon loud cries from
| without indicated something unusual,
and there was great commotion all
over the house. Il deafening shout
arose as the tall form of
Ex.Goy. wARMoTH,
Of New Orleans, moved up the central
aisle. When silence was restored,
Warmoth said sMr Speaker. | APP
pear here with number of my col
leagues for the purpose of taking cur
seats in the House. In caucus of the
Senators and Repres katives, reso-
luton was adopted tIAEs it was useless
to further continue controversy. We
have no apologies.
HAVE BEEN WHIPPED
in battle, but have at least preserved
our sef.respect in an honorable con
test, and are prepared now to offer
our allegiance to the only existing
| government, and to fairly cooperate
in anything which may be suggested"
o. II, Brewster, of Ouchita, re-
turned by the board, in resigning hia
claims to a seat, said that there is not
a principal that he had advocated in
10 years which had not been en-
bodied by the Democratic party, and
he hoped that if this was sincere the
scenes of Ouachita, last autumn will
never be reenacted. The Republican
party has elected their President, and
| had compelled the Democratic party
to adopt
REPUBLICAN PRINCIPLES.
He thought this glory enough.
johnson, of Desoto, returning
board member, in a short speech
said all | say is, just give johnson
his mileage and let him go. Elect
your best. Don't elect a man who
will trade off the Democratic party,
like the Republican party was traded
off. want what is due me, and then
| am prepared to allow any plan o.
esty and ability
Henry Blair, colored, of Morehouse,
said that he stood by the Republican
ship as long as it was in sight, but as
it had entirely disappeared from sight
he wished to tender his resignation.
He hoped when he returned home
his constituents would rejoice he had
not done any more harm than he had
done. lie had believed he was right,
and that he was constitationally elect
