BayOnets TO the Rear,

On Friday of last week President Hayes
issued an order to Secretary Of War McCra-
ry to cause the United States troops to be
withdrawn from the building in New Orleans
used rs State House. The necessary Or
ders were issued to Gen. Augur, in command
at New Orleans, and TIE troops marched out
on Tuesday, tie Gath inst. Thus the last
prop was knocked from beneath the pretend
ing Packard government, and the whole
fabric went suddenly to pieces. The mem.
beers of his Legislature who were returned as
elected, including Warmoth made all haste
to join Gov. Nicholls's Legislature, leaving
Packard with only ten or twelve adherents.
The greatest rejoicing was made, but the
Democrats, with commendabls magnanimity,
took no undue advantage of their sAlcess,
and Coy. Nichols even consented TO use the
Governors contingent fund, amounting TO
$4,000, to pay Packards police. This ac-
ton of Gov. Nichols has softened the defeat
for the Republicans and increased his popu-
larity
The malcontents among the Republicans
are very much dissatisfied with Hayes, and
are threatening to open their batteries upon
him in the next Congress. President Hayes,
IN the meantime, expresses nc. uneasiness,

Caught Out ON -Four K1nra.

Nashville Americana
-Four gentlemen were travelling
from the far West to New York city
for the purpose of buying goods.
One Of them was a German. As the
journey was long and tedious, they
concluded to while away the hour
at a game of euchre. Fritz, the
German, has been in the habit Of
playing draw poker, so every time
he was dealt a good poker hand he
would remark:
"Vell, Iplays poker NIT you on
dis hand"
The other parties would say, "Oh,
never mind poker, go on with the
game We are playing"
Pretty soon Fritz would get an
other poker hand, and out it would
come, 81 plays poker nit you on dis
hand"
80, never mind poker; go on with
the game"
He talked 50 much about poker
that the party thought finally that
they would give him enough of it.
One Of them left the table, got an
other deck of cards similar to the
one they were playing with, and
'put them up" for the occasion.
Fritz soon left the table a moment
for a glass Of water, and while
absent the new pack was sub
stituted, and was being dealt as he
returned. The dealer turned up a
queen. On looking at his hand
Fritz found he had four kings. He
Immediately said, 81 plays poker
nit you on dis hand"
One of the party who had dealt
himself four aces, looked at his hand
some time, then he looked at the
queen, which had been turned up,
then at his hand and again at the
queen. Finally he remarked :
"Well, now, Fritz, since you
seem so anxious to play poker, I'll
tell you what I'll do. If you will
let me take that queen up l will
give you a little hand at poker"
"All right" says Fritz, "all right;
you take up dem queen"
The queen was taken up and the
betting commenced. Fritz bet off
500. John N. raised him $50,
Fritz raised that 800. John went
$500 better, and so the betting went
on until poor Fritz had put up all
the money he had brought to buy
goods with. When the money was
all exhausted and it came to a call,
John throwed down his four aces
and his queen and took the money.
Fritz didn't say a word, but went
on with the game of euchre for
about half an hour. Finally he
looked up with a perplexed countt-
nance, and remarked i%nterroga-
lively, "John, l be thinks all this
while what de queen have NIT to
do with dat hand"
