New Orleans, April 13.—A crevasse 300
foot wide is reported at MoGullom's, two
miles below Baton Rougo, ou tho left
hank of tho river. The Stutu Engineer,
who wus dispatched to the mouth of the
bayou Plaqueiuiue to cut the dike which
keeps tho waters of the Mississippi out of
said bayou, lias returned without exe
cuting his mission.
Tho citizens of Iberville parish and the
town of Plaqaomino, in publio meeting,
protested against cutting the dike, aud
resolved to prevont it by forae. They
have a detail of armed men guarding the
levees. It is now positively asserted by
those best informed that the oponiug of
bayou Pluquemine would overflow the
town of Piaqueinine aud a greater portion
of Iberville parish ; hence tho opposition

Bayard gave uotioe of an amendment
to the bill to provide for a new election
Louisiana, whioh seta forth in a long
preamble that McEnery and Penn were
duly elected Governor and Lieutenant
Governor of Louisiana, and request the
President to issue his proclamation within
ten days after the passage of this aot, no
tifying the people of Louisiana that all
hindrance, obstacle or impediment on the
part of the United States to the peaceable
and legnl assumption of the offices of
Governor and Lieutenant Governor has
been withdrawn, so that they may with
out let or hindrauoe proceed to fill the
same.
Carpenter asked that his Louisiana bill
be made the special order for to-morrow,
aftor tho expiration of the morning hour.
Sherman said he was opposed to taking
up the bill, and hoped the sense of the
Senate would be taken as to whether it
should bo considered or not. He thought
tho body should devote its time to other
matters of more weight.
Carpenter said the Senator from New
Jersey (Froelinghuysen) was prepared to
speak on the bill, and it should be taken
up. However, if a majority of the Son-
ate determined it would stand by tho Kel
logg government, right or wrong, he ad
mitted it would be bad policy to have any
dobate ou the bill. Tho Senator from
Ohio (Sherman) had come here with sev
eral financial conundrums, which had oc
cupied the Seuate four mouths. Tho
Sonator would have been astonished if
some Senator had expressed a desire to
disposo of the measures without any de
bate.
Sherman said there were many hills on
tho calendar, and bo wus opposed to lay
ing nside practical legislation to tuko up
this bill. It would do the people of Lou
isiana no good, and ho would therefore
insist upon the consideration of matters
of more importance.
Carpenter said it was a matter of im
portance where a State had boon usurped
und its government held by tbo usurpers
under the decree of a Federal court. He
was astonished at the indifference mani
fested by Senators on this subject. If
tho Republican part}’ to-day refuses to
interfere when its usurpers hold a State
by the throat, it could not interfere in
any similar case where tho usurpers might
be Democrats.
He was iu New Orleans last May, when
thore was great excitement thore, and in
a publio speech he pledged himself to the
pooplo, thut if thoy would stop violence
and submit to the Kellogg government,
he would do what he could to present
thoir case to Congress. They had kept
their part of tho contract, and he proposed
to keep his.
Sherman said no one would deny that
Sonator Carpeutor had kept his pledge.
Already he (Sherman) believed that a
large majority of tho people of Louisiana
had acquiesced in the condition of affairs
in that State, and it was wise in them to
do so. They would have an opportunity
next fall to redeem their government, and
Congress had bettor attend to its legit
male business, leaving Louisiana matters
to right themselves. Any oction by Con
gress now would only damage matters,
and make things worse.
Carpenter said tho acquiescence of the
people was their submission to the au
thority of the United States troops who
wore now there, and in case an attempt
was made by the pooplo to overthrow the
Kellogg Government, those troops would
be put into action under the act of the
Kellogg Legislature. In regard to hold
ing elections, Kellogg could carry the
State to-morrow by from 20,000 to 50,000
majority.
Morton said that thut act had been re
pealed.
Carpenter said that he was not aware of
that fact.
Sherman—“Well, the gentleman is not
aware of what is going <
Morton said he hud a dispatch from
Governor Kellogg announcing the repeal
of the not.
Carpenter replied he was glad to hear
it. It was ono step towards decency
Morton said one of the chief disturbing
elements iu Louisiana At the present was
the fact that this bill wus pouding in the
Senate, llo believed a groat majority of
the poople of Louisiana acqniosced in tho
Kellogg government. Not only Republi
cans, but the best part of the Democratic
party, were opposed to any action by
Congress to set that government aside.
Should the bill be taken up, he would
avail himself of the opportunity to show
that what had been doue by the Kellogg
Legislature had been to the benefit of the
State. It was a beneficent Legislature,
and Louisiana iu now in all her industry
aud enterprise, and is rapidly reviving.
bat he concurred with tho Senator (Car
penter) that there was no more import
ant question than this. He was surprised
at the statement made npon this floor of
the acquieBienoe of the peoplo of Louisi
ana in the Kellogg government. It was
knowu to every Senator here, that if the
Federal troops should be withdrawn, the
Kellogg government would be banished
oat of existence in lesB than a month.
The people of that State had appealed to
the President of the United States, and
had been turned away. Now were they
to be turned away from the balls of Con
gress? There are Senators upon this
floor who would not bo disposed to let
this matter sleep, but have the iniquity
exposed, whioh in those Louisiana affairs
wus so great that, if they should keep si*
lent, the very stonaa would cry out.
Carpentar said ha did not think tha re
pudiation of the debt of the Kellogg Leg
islature was a beneficient measuro.
West said he had no desire at the pres
ent time to impose a debate on Louisiana
questions upon the Senate, bat some re
marks made requirod a refutation from
him. The Senator from Wisconsin had
said the repudiation of the debt was not
beneficial legislation. He (West) desired
to say that legislation was made at the
suggestion of tho Domocratio party of the
State. When the State should be com
mitted to the Democratic party, the bonds
might as well bo put in the waste basket.
The people now beseech Congress for a
new election in Louisiana—all tho disap
pointed office-seekers and the men who
have countenanced murder and assassina
tion. He would not attempt to put the
bill on the table now, but would show,
when the time came, thut the Kellogg
government was the legal government of
the State, and that the people there were
quietly pursuing their avocations.
Tipton said he was not specially con
cerned about tho people of Louisiana,
but ho was concerned about the poople of
Nebraska, and he thought the right of the
people to administer their affairs was of
more importance than tho questions of
revenue, finance, or anything else which
could oocnpy the Senate. He wanted to
know if hereafter a faction in Nebraska
could appeal away from the constitution
laws and ballot box of the State ; whother
a handful of men running the custom
bouse, U. S. marshals and U. S. attor
neys office could get tip a government of
their own, and with a promise of support
to some future President, could proouro
tho support of tho Federal power to
ronintain thorn in their position ?
Carpenter gave notice that to morrow,
after the expiration of the morning hour,
ho would ask tho Senate to tajee up tho
bill.
Sherman snid he would ask a vote of
the Sonato upon the motion.
Frelinghnysen inquired why tho vote
could not be taken now.
Sherman said half of tho seats
empty, and he would prefer to have the
vote taken to-morrow.

fHTBEHE COURT.
Washington, April 18.—The Chief Jus
tice delivered his first opinion on tho
bench of tho Supreme Court to-day, in a
case from Illinois, touching tho right of
the State to tax non-resident National
Bank shareholders at the residonoo of the
bank. The members of the bar who
hoard him, and his brotbronon the bench,
speak of it in eulogistio terms. Hon.
Reverdy Johnson is complimentary in his
remarks, both as to the morits of the
opinion and the manner of delivery. Tho
Chief Justico delivered his first formal
opinion considerably earlier than the late
Chief Justice did.
The Supreme Court to-day decided the
case of Tappan, Collector of Taxea of
Ohicago, against the Merohants’ National
Bank of Chioago, from the Circuit Court
of Illinois, presenting the queation wheth
er the Legislature of Illinois could, iu
1887, provide for the taxation of the own
ers of ahares of the oapital stock of a na
tional bank in that Slate, at the place
ithin the State where the bank was lo
cated, without rogard to their places of
residence. The Court below decided that
the tax could not bo thus laid, and the de-
creo was against the Collector. That de
ls here reversed, the Court holding
that ahares of stock in the national
banks are personal property. Under
the national bankiug aot they are
species of personal property, say
the Court, whioh is iu ono sense intangi
ble and incorporeal ; but the laws which
create them may separate them from the
person of tho owner for the purpose of
taxation and give them a site of thoir
This has been done, it is held, by
the Banking aot. Since the decree below
made, the Supreme Court of Illinois
has held the Stato Uw of 1887, under
whioh the tax waa laid, to be valid, and
that deoiHion is held to be binding oq this
Court. Its oorreotness is also oonceded.
Chief Justice Waite delivered the opin
ion in the case of the Atlantia,Tennessee,
and Ohio Ralroad Company and others,
against the Carolina National bank of Co
lombia, and others from tho Circuit Court
for North Carolina; also decided to-day
the question whether bonds issued by the
company in May, 1862, payable at differ
ent periods from November, 1869, to
November, 1875, were solvable in Con
federate currency as lawful money.
Rome of the bonds falling into the
bands of the bank, the company was
willing to pay iu Confederate money, but
the bank demanded tnonoy of the United
(States, aud this aotion was instituted to
tnpel payment under a deed of trust,
exeonted to secure them.
The court below sustained the demand
of the bank.
Another question was brought here,
where the decree is affirmed, the court
holding that the iutention of the company
wan that the principal of its bonds
should be paid in lawful money
instead of Confederate notes, may bo
justly inferred from the nature of the cob
tracts, particularly tho long period before
they wore to mature. When they
issued, it is said it could not have been in
the contemplation of the parties that the
war would continue from sevon to thir
teen years. It is well known that at the
time it was the genoral expectation on all
sides, that tho wai^would bo one of short
duration. The Confederate uoten were
only payable by their terms after a notifi
cation of peaoe between the Confederate
titutes and the United States.
The bonds of the railroad were intend
ed for sale iu the markets of the world
generally, end not merely in tho Confed
erate States. They were payable to the
bearer, aud there transferable by delivery.
They state on their face that they may be
converted into the stock of the oouipnuy
at par by the holder.
The declarations of tho officers of the
company np to July, 1863, show that tbo
company treated the bonds as haviug
an exceptional value, aud not subject to
the fluctuations of Confederate currency.
Tho repealed declarations of the officers
wore made to that import.
There is sufficient iu these oircarn-
