Your communication of the 28th inst, has been re

I deeply regret to see, both by their conteuts and the
.contioned dial:tie)* of the flag of Louisiana on the coact
bonen, a determination, on the part of the city authori
ties, not to haul it down. ilorsover, whoa my officers
and men were soot on shore to communicate with the
autboilitee, and to befit the United tastes flag on we
CUE3IOIII house, with tae atrietact order not to use their
acme rinks' assailed, they were insulted in the grossest
manner, end the flag which had been hoisted by my or
uere on the Mint was pulled down and dragged through
the straits. . .
Ail f which goes to show chat the fire of this fleet
tray be drawn upon the city at any moment, awl in such
an event the levee would, to olf'probability, be cat by
the shells, and an amount of. distress ensue to the inno
cent PODUISIAOII, %YMCA I have heretofore endeavored to

my duty to notify 3 ellto remove the women and children

Your communication of this morning is the first in

that the United etates Dig was attempted to he heisted
upon certain of our nubile edincers, by officers sent
on shore to. communicate the authorities. The
officers whe approached me in your name discloaed no
such enders and intimated no such design on your part,
nor would have for a moment entertateed the remotest
suspicion that they could bare been invested with
power to enter on such nn errand while tits nego

cities were still pending. The interference of any-force
under your cinem:u d, as twig as those negotiations were
not Nought to n close, could not be vieeed by us other
wise then as a flagrant violation of those courtesies; if
. not of the absolute, rights, which prevail between bent-
In rents under such circumstances. My views and senti
ment. with reference to such conduct remain unchanged.
You now renew the demand nuide in- your former.com
umnication,- and you insist on their being compiled with
' unconditionally, under a threat of bondtardniont.withlit
forty-tight hours;" and you notify rue to remove the wo
men nod children from the city, that they may be pro
tected froM Tont' shells.
• Sir, you cannot but know that there is no powrible e&it
from this city for a population which atilt exceed in
norther one hundred and forty thousand, and son must
therefore be aware of the utter inanity of such a notifi
cation. Onr women and children cant et escape from
your shells, if it be your pleasure to =viler them on a
question of mere etieuettet . But if they , could, there are
but few among them who would consent to desert their
families and their homes, and the graves of their rota.
twee, in Do awful a moment: They would bravely igen&
'the eight of your shells tearing up the graves of those

not ingloriously by. the side of the tombs erected by their
piety to the memory of departed relatives.
You are not selloff, d with the, poesession of an unde
fended city, opposing no resistance to yotir gone, because
or its bearing its bard fate It ion something of manliness
and dignity, and you wish to humble and disgrace us by
the performance of an act against which our natures
rebel., This satisfaction you cannot expect to obtain at
our Muds. . •
We will stand your bombardment, unarmed and undo.

indelible infamy the heart that will CGIICeiVO the deed and
