Tin; Riot in Orleans- Tin Pni>;i»i.\TSi stains Tim: Civil At tuorihem. 1 nder our Telegraphic head will be found a brief history of the bloody viot in New Orleans on the 301 h. The following extract from Ihe correspondence: ofthe New" York 'J'itues, dated at New Orleans,! July J Itli. fufni.-lu’s the most intelligible accounts | of the origin of the trouble that we have yet! The i ’om - utbm muddle is tin* most interesting, | beeaufto it is most complicated, bt nil tin* ques- I tion* that are now ’attracting attention here. It w ill be remembered that Gen. Hanks called on ; the people to elect delegate* h> a Constitutional Convention in M’til. which met and was organ-: ' i/.ed in pursuance of the policy laid out by the lamented l.iueoln, and afterwards adopted by lYoftideut Johnson. That body embraced all of the consistent loyally of tin* State, and was jm . doubtedly above tin* average in ability and: intelligence. Its action was worked with kiml ! m*.-.* t*nv«id tho.se who were- then in armed ! rebellion against the Government, and it did not foolishly disfranchise them as was done in Virgin iu and Tennessee. As l understand it, there \uw ’ not even the lightest efl'ort to that end . Instead of re.-uiatiugsulferagedhev empowered nnv future Eeglslature t*» enlarge it, bv granting tin* right. , with eertniu quuliticafions. to colored citizens. ; It adopted a Uon.-tituiion which has been recog-, nized by Lincoln. Johnson and Seward, and in directly by all of the different bruliehes of the General Government. It did not adjourn sine dir. hut authorized its President to reconvene it in ease an emergency requiring it should arise. ‘ The lament abb* difference between Congress and tin* President, together with tin* unsettled con dition of affairs, and the fact that some of tin* e\ Confederate.- misused some of the privileges be stowed on them by the leniency of the Conven ! tion. was the cause of the recent call for its second meeting. The history of this call is the strangest part of the whole business. Judge Ihuell.thc President, at first favored the project: and conferred w ith the Governor in the premise*. That ollieer. how ever. w ith his usual fickleness, succeeded in di eouraging Judge IJurell, and postponed tin* mat ter until a heavy ouUtidc pressure was brought to bear on him. and he has since itiuudonetl the idea. Added to tin* Governor's oscillation was a remarkable luek"of consistency on the part of some of the Uadh ul members ot Congress. Judge Unroll telegraphed to -onie oi» the most promi- I’ueutof theta, ivskittg them whether tln*y would ! sustain tin* Convention, but received no reply. An informal caucus was then held iu this city, at 'which between forty and fifty members ofthe [body of lcM were present. Under the insti gation of King Culler, and other ox’rcme Uadieal*. they passed i resolution **otu'erning Uurvll, for r«*fu-al t*» reeonyoke them, tmd eieete 1 Judge lb-well Pre-id-nt , a ten*., flrdering him to issue ;t call, whh h he <lid, at’ l immedijfttely thereafter lefi for Washington, for the purpose of conferring with Hanks, S;i*v»*ns and Stunner, or others of the Uadieal stripe. That body having such supreme power as a Constitutional Convention has the authority to reconvene, is uppercut : lint it unfortunate forit* friends that tin-call is informal.

The di»!tanchii«*nieiit of the whiten would, however, nrobablv be extensive enough: to secure their orqcet. With tliU aim iu view,* they knew very well that they would not receive j the co-operation of the iYesident. and have con sequently sent Judge Howell to Washington to Beeuro their recoguition by Congress. Some of them fear military interference, add l have heard it publicly nt sited that the Governor would rail on the President for assistance in dispersing tin* Convention when it meets. Again. 1 have beard it loudly proclaimed that the Governor favored i th*- whole plan. From thi« brief statement ot; facts, it will be readily imagined that some ex citement exintrt there. The white population of the State i* organized as militia tyre*.', and jin* Governor lists promised to authorized a similar ! organization of the freed men. separate from Hie 1 whites.

Then* is * now very little, question that the!

Alt of our readers are familiar with the threats w hich havo been made bv the President s new allies.of his recognizing the .Southern member*. „,)*l those who might join them, as the cenuim* Congress. This is not likely to be done at pre senb simply because a quorum could not be got together in this way. When the Southern seats are tilled there wiU’be 70 Senators and 212 Rep resell tutives. Hut there are not inoi# than 31 persons now claiming to be Senators, nor more I*;; claiming to be Representatives, who could ' possibly be induced to take part in any such dis ; organizing and revolutionary proceedings. The ! scheme, therefore, cannot at present bo carried ! out with the slightest pretence of legality, I . Rut the next Congress will present an entirely different question. There is very little doubt ' that the Republican party will lose one Kept - sentativc* in Connecticut, three in New York, o:i»* in Pennsylvania, three in Ohio, three in Indiana, two in Illinois, one in Michigan, one in Wi.-eon mu, two in Missouri, and one in Kentucky, while the four Johnson-l’nion members Train Mary land, Kentucky and Missouri w ill bo succeeded by other Johnson men. if not re-elected. Four ot the members elect from Tennessee to the present Congress are too loyal to support Mr. Johnson. Not more than two of these will be re-elected. No members have been yet elected in lexas. l our secessionists w ill appear from that recon structed next winter. Tbps, at the opening of the Fortieth Congress, one hundred and seven • leen persons claiming seats in the House will certainly be prepared to support Mr. Johnson's policy. ’ If he can only carry live more, he will have a clear majority of those whom he will con sider lawfully elected to the lower branch of Congress. Now it is very probable that, in •ad dition to those losses which we have before men tioned, the Republicans will lose one member in ; Connecticut (Mr. Hubbard), two in New > ork (Messrs. Humphrey and Ketehum), two in Penn sylvania (Messrs. Thayer ami Miller), two in Ohio (Messrs. Uubbell and AMily. or <'lark>. one in Indiana (Mr. Hill). «me in Illinois (Mr. Harding', and one iu Wisconsin (Mr. Sawyer)- ten in all: while it is not certain but that five or six other seats wav be lost. Taking, however, these esti mates a**' a ba>is of calculation, it will be seen that the probable loss of twenty eight members, though it would leave a Republican majority ot about forty in the House of Representatives as ; at present constituted (oue hundred and thirteen ' Republicans to seventy-one Johnsonians) would • yet give the Johnson party one hundred and twenty-seven members out of two found ted ami forty-two, iu case the Southern delegation were admitted. if the present programme is carried mti. the Southern representatives will insist upon their ! right to vote for Speaker at the commencement 'of tin* next Congress. The Clerk will not call their names: and the plan meditated is tor the TO or 7o Johnson mpiqbeYs who are clearly entitled to seats, to untie with the .>» excluded Southerner*, elect a temporary cbairmail in th** , place of the Clerk, choose a Spender, and apply !to .tlie President bor rocognitiutt.
