THE MILITARY.
4 Last evening it. became. generally
GOWN that Major Gen eral Frederick
N. Ogden, commanding the Militia,
had received orders to assemble his
troops early in the morning on Lafa-
yettc square, but this report obtained
little credence am ng the people at
large, who had been disappointed by
previous rumors tb the same effect.
However, the community realized
the truth of the report this morning
when, by pine O'CLOCK, they found
about two thousand armed men con-
9re9ated in the square, comprising
about twenty companies, in regular
order, about two thirds of the men
being armed with muskets and rifles
Of different patterns, and shot guns,
whilst the remainder were well pro-
vlded with side arms. There must
have been, besides, from three to
four thousand unattached armed men
in the vicinity.
- ON THE MOVE. "
About half-past 10 O'Clock tie Mi-
Iitia, headed by General Ogden, Ad
jutant General Behan and aids D. B.
Penn, Theo. Shute, j. O. Nixon, Jr.,
b uckner, Dupre apd others, began to
move from Lafayette square into
Tchoupitoulas street, where, after a
little delay, the order to march was
given and the column proceeded
down to Canal into New Levee, and
down TO Toulouse, where they were
halted by General Ogden. At this
juncture large body of. men were
seen coming in donble file from the
direction of the French Market and
halt in ,front of jackson square,
which. upon inquiry, was found to be
the old battalion Of Orleans ArtilIe-
ry, under the command of Captain
J. i. Vinet.
Captain w. }. y. Armstrong was
now detached from the main column
and took positiorI at the corner of
The Lcyee and ST. Ann street, and
another company took possession Of
Jackson square. in few minutes

IN THE STATE HOUSE

there were assembled about lOO po-
+icemen and two companies of what
was called Militia, consisting for the
most part of dirty, ragged negroes
from the levee. These were not en-
trusted even with arms, but were
marched and drilled as much as the
occasion would allow of. They were
not intended for fl ght but were coop
ed up in the State House to get kill
ed, so as to make "a negro outrage"
Of the affair.
The terror and CONSERVATION in
side the building was simply indis-
cribahle. Two or three men with
guns were stationed in the corridors
of the Senate chamber, and seemed
ready to defend that portion of the
building, which is perfectly safe
from attack. Twenty or thirty pc;
licemen were arm ed with guns; the
rest carried nothing but their side
weapons. The n egro Militia was
about seventy five in number, divi-
ded into three companies of twenty
to thirty each. They were wholly
without arms.

CuESTNUTING.


To the youthful mind there is rare fascina-
ton in gathering cliestnuts. This is due partly
to the nlcritorious qualities Of the chestnut it.
self, and partly to th- tact that there is spice
OF danger in the act Of gathering it.. 1t is true
that there is rather more bur about a chestnut
in its native state tl1au seems really necessary,
and there is no doubt that il the cncstnuts were
to grow on one tree and the burs on another it
would be 4 more generally satisfactory ar
rangcment. Still, the boy who has climbed to
the topnlost branch Of a chestnut tree, and
sees approaching in the distance the angry
owner, accompanied by a large club
and savage dog, will hastily fill the
front Of his jacket with unopened burs, anu
grind them against his body Us he slides down
the tree, with j iortitudc SURPRISING that Of tile
historical Spartan small boy ,s.o stue an aDiSc
hunt, anu allowed it to blister the entire surface
OF his stomach in preference to admitting his
guilt and undergoing the inevitable tllrashing
1t is a curious provision OF nature that chestnuts
must always be stolen. Tic trees always be-
long to another man, and there is no small boy
living whose father ever had Il chcstnuf-lree on
his own land. Why this should be so is j inys-
terry Wllcl, it is the province Of lnoEaiists to
solve, and which, therefore, needs no discussion
here.
1t is the opinion Of Miss Anthony that the
tYrant man has committed one Of his worst out
RACES in monoplizing the sport Of chestnut
gathering. It cannot be denied that the female
SEX Is virtually shut out fruln this delightful
pursuit. To gather chcstnuts successfully in
wolves climbing trees, and the mature woman or
iuli.srown g!rl rarely cares to incur the irisss
which arc lnscEaraDc from climbing il, the

After the failure OF the Third and Central Banks.

easily have been made an emergency. but our

heretofore The offerings OF good negotiable
paper hayc been slight, but all that is brought for

community can cornt upon pfoncr support One

tN1TED STATES poSDs AT HOME AND ABROAD.
The New York Journal Of Commerce states:
Calculations made By good judges show that there
arc at present less than SIS. 600, 600 Of the Is and
AIS held abroad out OF the ;s27 GOO. 0G0 issucd,
md that NEARLY all the Cos hare been sent back 10
Us, and those bonds that now in Europe are in
the hands of investors, and hare been quite firmly
held II this estl1nate is there very lit
tic reason to expect large return of bonds to this
Country, even If the worst that has been feared
should result from the unwisc legislation by Cen
Ercss. This actual scarcity Of our bonds abroad
will ser;c to account for the Grn1ncss in the Lon
