He Refuses to Sauction the Radical Convention and Pronounces It an IHegal Assemblage. The City Remains Under Mar- tial Law. &. &e, &. The public are familiar with the objects and proceed- ings of the State Convention of Louisiana, which as- sembled in New Orleans on the 6th of April, 1864, osten- sibly for the purpose of revising and amending the con- stitution of the State, and after remeining in session two and # half months, almost a new constitution was Produced, which was submitted to the people and adopt- ‘ed by the popular voice. An attempt was made during the present month by some of the radical members to revive the dead conven- tion, as it is called, for the purposo of ratifying the amendment to the constitution of the United States, and the President, Mr. E. H. Durell, was requested to issue a proclamation reconvoking the body. When the coaven- tion was first called only a portion of the State was within the Union lines, and therefore great number of the parishes were unrepresented. Mr. Durell, taking the ground that when the convention, on tho 28d of June, 1864, adjourned, it ceased to have any legal existence, and its members were out of office, ra- fused to comply with the demands of the radicals. A mecting was then called, and a presidont pro tem. ap- pointed, as before stated, who issued a proclamation re- convoking the dead convention. Gevernor Wells was solicited to tssue writs ordering elections to fill the vacancies in the restored parishes, which he consented to do; bat fixed the day of election on the 34 of September next. There were twenty-one unrepresented parishes in 1864 which were entitled to fifty-two representatives. The radicals, however, were determined to assemble on Monday last; hut it is stated it was their intention to adjourn until some day subse- quent to the ove appointed for the holding of the elec. tons, ‘There were a number of the membery of the Conven- tion of 19864 who coincided in the views taken by the president, and refused to iw -et the radicals. One Mr. J. B. Bromley thought that fo geod could be accom- plished by reassembling, and he is reported as saying that he went to New Orleans with GeneralButler to fight against the rebels, and that he had no ides pow of joining in any insane aud revolutionary move- ment, Another, Judge Abell, of New Orleans, not only refused to join the so-called conspirators, but in his judicial capacity charged the Grand Jary to the effect that the officer of State, who endeavored to change the government through the action of the wembors of that Conveniion, subjected himself to a prosecution for per- jury. He branded its members ar ‘political apostates end military deserters; the meanest and basest of man- kind, venal, cowardly and treacherous." The President pro tem., Mr. It. R. Howell, of the re- assembled Convention, it is stated, had been on a visit to Washington, and bad received instructions from the radical members of Congress. Immediately upon his return to New Orleans a cail was issued for a meeting of citizens who were in favor of universal suffrage, of the reconstruotion policy of Congress, and of amending the constitution of the State to give oqual rights to all with- out distinction of celor. This meeting was beld on Fri- day night last, and contributed to add to the excitement which was then prevailing. ‘The causes which created the disgraceful riot on Mon day last are thus briefly set forth, Bad aud horrifying an it was, the radical journals of this city were nob con- tent with the facts as they came over the wires, but greatly exaggerated the statements. One of them an- pounced that two hundred negroes had been killed, and that the hall where the convention was held was iterally flooded with the blood of Union men, while the simple fact was that only two of the members had been seriously wounded, one of whom has since died. Another paper stated that dead negroes wore lying about the streets; that few were arrosted, as they were being rapidly killed. SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.
