Gov. Nichols yesterday exhibited
to us the following dispatch, received
by him Tuesday night from the Louis
lana delegation
WASHINGTON, March 27, 1877.
To Hon. s. B. Packard, New Orleans:
In reply to your dispatch to the Presi-
dent, have to say that the dispatch to
Gen. Augur, of yesterday, was not in
tended to interfere with the situation,
but to preserve the peace and obtain in
formation.
(Signed) G.. W. McCRARY,
Secretary Of War.
This copy was given US by the Secre-
tary Of War. r. l.. GIBSON,
VIM. A. LEVY,
f. JOHN ELLIS.
The above dispatch was sent in an
swer to one from Governor Nichols to
the Louisiana delegation at Washing
ton, and in which the Governor dwelt at
some length on the Injurious effect OF
the dispatch Of the Secretary Of War to
Gen. Augur, a copy of which was tele-
graphed to Packard by the President
over his own signature. Governor Mic
hollis urgently requested that the Presi-
dent should be made to see the situation
here In it's proper light. The Louisiana
delegation, after conference with the
President and Cabinet, were furnished
with a COPY of the above dispatch.

TersonneE of the Commission An
tecedents and Politics of
Its Members.
mt is to Commence Operations Next Week.
Let Packard Prepare to Leave.
HampteA's March Of Triumph.
The Louisiana Delegation.
Especial TO n. 0. Democrat

WASHINGTON, March 28.-The Com.
mission has been completed at last. II
consists OF Wayne McVeigh, of Penn
syIvania, ex-Gov. John G. Brown, OF
Tennessee, Judge @. B. Lawrence. OF
Chicago, John M. Harlan, Of Kentucky,
! and Joseph r. Hawley, Of Connecticut.
III the seniority Of appointments is to be
observed, Gov. Brown, of Tennessee,
will be chairman of the Commission.
Taking the body as a whole, there is
little to criticise the only one OF the
five members who can properly be
called Radical is Hawley, OF Connecti-
gut, and even he, while in Congress,
bolted his party on the Force bill.
Wayne McVeigh Is we'll known to the
leading men of New Orleans. He
belongs to the William Walter Phelps
type Of Republicans, and, although a
son-in- law Of Simon Cameron, has
always borne a spotless reputation fol
Integrity and more than ordinary repute
for fairness and independence.
Judge Lawrence, Of Chicago, has been
ioag identified with the bar and bench
et his State, but has never before taken
any prominent position in national af-
fairs. His political status is quite SINH
lar to that of Senator Chrlstiancy, of
Michigan. General Harlan Is Ken
tucky Republican of the Bristow school,
and is known to be liberal In his views
on Southern questions. Governor
Brown needs no Introduction to the
people of Louisiana.
None of these men have been active
in politics for several years except Har-
Ian, who took charge of the BIistow
movement before the Cincinnati Con-
vention last spring. Hawley retired
from politics in 1875, since which time
he has devoted himself to the Centen-
NAL Exhibition. McVeigh has never
been an active politician in the sense Of
seeking or holding Office.
Altogether, the Commission may be
called safe conservative body Of men
and, while not up to the highest stand
ard of ability, is highly respectable
both in capacity and character. Brown,
McVeigh and Harlan could hardly be
improved upon in any respect. Hawley
will not be likely to reverse the record
he made against the Force bill, but may
cling to. some of his Radical traditions.
Lawrence is likely to maintain a judi
cial rather than political attitude.
I see plenty Of reason to repeat my
recent advice to Packard to pack up
and get ready to move.
The Louisiana delegation leave for
home tomorrow. Gibson has already
gone.
Gov. Hampton was delayed by de-
monstration in his honor at Richmond.
He will arrive tomorrow morning.
The Commission will reach New Or
leans in time to commence operations
about week from to-day.

Especial to Cincinnati Enquirer.l
ST.. LOUIS, March 24.-Ihis conmu-
nifty is now moved to its Drofoundest
depths by the campaign for the munich
pal election, which occurs the first
Tuesday in April. The present Mayor,
Henry Oyerstolz, had both parties so
thoroughly bulIdosed at the conven-
tions that he walked away with a nonni-
nation by the Democrats and indorse-
ment by the Republicans. The result
of this unparalleled feat of two-horse
riding was bolt from each party. The
boilers held an enthusiastic conven-
ton to-day, and both nominated
State Senator Nathaniel G.. Hud-
son, a Republican, for Mayor, and
each put Republicans and Democrats
indiscriminately On its ticket. The
fight Is very bitter, the entire voting
population being aroused to high
pitch Of excitement, and arrayed under
the OversUolz or anti-O -Oyerstolz banner.
To looker-on in Vienna, however, it
is clear that OVerstolz has the inside
track, and is a dozen necks ahead, so
that nothing short of an unusual catas-
trophe will prevent him from ENJOYING
a second term OF the Mayors chair. He
is personally very popular, and, though
an easy-golng, Negative sort OF man.
Is an astute manager, and able TO seea
long way into a milestone. Besides, he
is backed by all the city patronage. the
Gas Ring, Ell id 0ntIae genus, and Wcaid
be hard 10 beat even il he was not p0pu-.
lar and shrewd, which be liz both.

The following dispatch was received
yesterday by Major Burke from a

tation, and is known to be of the inner

LONDON, March 27.-The Post pub
fishes the following in official form !:
There is good reason for believing that
the Cabinet, to-day, will meet under a
condition of affairs much altered since
their last council.
The suspense, doubt and gloom which
then overshadowed European politics
are to q considerable extent dissipated !;
and while it would be premature to in
dulge in any illusions, we may safely
gather encouragement from the fact
that the Russian government is appar-
emily disposed to meet the wishes Of
England, and endeavor to come to q
more reasonable arrangement than the
inadmissable conditions lately put for
ward. -
