The Republicans we're fully informed of
all these preparations to exclude them
from the hall and last night a hundred
men were sworn II as officers of Rcpubli-

leading to the representative hall was

way through the line of guards stationed
at the foot of the stairs in the west wing
and started up stairs. On the first land
ing was a crowd of Populist house
officers under command of Adiutant
General Artze. They were armed, and
the advancing Republican crowd were
met with the muzzles of rcvolvers and
Winchesters. The adiutant general com.
manded them to halt, but no stop was
made and the advance guard pushed
into the crowd of Populists. Three or
four OF them succeeded in passing the
door keepers, after brief struggle. and
&c tting into the halls. The Populists
succeeded N closing the door and bar

demanded admittanCc and when it was
denied them Speaker Douglass swung a
large sed2e hammer and began to bat
ter the heavy doors leading to the cloak
room. 1t took MANY blows to beat a
passage through, but the doors finally
gave way and the Republican legislators
surged in with a loud shout. The popu-
lists promptly retreated and now (noon)
ne Republicans arc in full possession OF
the hall.
AT l O'Clock there were n few Pop
lsts in the representative hall and the
Republican House had settled down to a
regular order of business as if nothing
Unusual had happened. Assistant ser

ed ribbon, promenaded the aisles and
obbies. The Republicans and Populists
both swore in officers as fast as possible.

Don't WGTIy,

Just now there seems 10 be consid-
cradle to agitate the minds Of the
people Of Louisiana. In one portion
OF the State the leyees, those horrible
death traps, are giving them much
concern while in others the rains, Civ
ing the grass such splendid oppor-
tunity to grow, are giving them much
anxiety. OF course thee ara sources
for grave apprehension, but the true
philosophy Of life is TO not worry at
all. In the first place it does no good,
does not in the least change the con-
dition Of things, while it makes one
extremely unhappy and is but q
means Of much vexation. Let every
one DO the best he can, take advant-
age Of every legitimate opportunity,
act with prudence and Judgment and
let providence take care Of the rest
This mode Of procedure generally
lands the one who practices it safe
beyond the shore Of want
In the meantime, friends, if you
desire anything in the clothing and
outftting line, anything in the way
OF nice Summer shirts, neckties, hand
kerchiefs, underwear and such things
as enables one to be comfortable, call
