LOUISIANA.

President Grant did wise thing when he
refused to interfere in any way with munich
pal affairs in Louisiana, except to keep the
peace. IF he had adhered to that determine
ton he would have done more than any one
expected him to do. Packard, the man who,
though defeated by several thousand votes is
attempting to toist himself upon the people
as governor, proved his utter inability to s,is-
tain himself. Nichols the man fairly elected
was inaugurated, and got possession of tAf
police stations, the court houses and other
public buildings, and organized the Sapramc
Court of the State. The people N reeogni
zed him as their chosen head, and, finally the
republican legislature which Lad been strug-
Cling for existence began TO waver, and its
members, too, turned over to.the Democratic
house. Then it was, when, Packard was
on his last ;pegs that Grant weakened. He
could stand it no longer and so issued the fol
lowing order to Gen. Augur:
WASHINGTON, D. c., January l4.-To
General G. c. Augur, New Orleans, La: |,
take no part in the settlement of the question
of the righlful government in the State, Of
Louisiana, at least not until the Congressien-
al committees now there have made their re.
port. But it is not proper to sit quietly by
and see the state government gradually taken
possession of by one of the claimants for Cru
berDatorial honors by illegal means The Su.

U. s. GRANT, President

Gen. Augur interprets this order as not
changing his duties relative to the recognition
of either Of the State governments, but Pack
ard interpets it differently, and on the strength
of it has demanded of the Nichols govern
ment to surrender its authority to him. The
Pila. Times says:
A pretended State government that is
wholly the creation Qf fraud, has been strug-
Cling to gain the semblance of authority, but
the people pcaceably but determinedly reject
it the taX-paysrs almost with one accord re-
fuse it tribute, and its own lines Of intamy
have been breaking one by one from day to

A better feeling with our merchants
prevails. Dry goods and clothing men
have done an excellent business in the
last few days. Produce has been un.
settled, owing to the carnival. Wheat
is duh and offerings light. Oats are in
good demand.
Buffalo meat Is coming In in large
quantities.
\ Cotton, the market Is nominal.
About TWEEN ty.iiye bales have been re-
ceived In the last two days. There
will be considerable increase in the
receipts now, rs there is a good deal in
the hands of planters. Cotton men
expect TO get 100 or 1850 bales yet.
Agricultural implement dealers are
very busy, and heavy trade in ma
