The Loving Pairs.

General Schenck In recent speech IN
Ohio, made the following amusing reference
to the Couch-0rr melo-drama at the JEFF,
Davis-Johnson convention;
But they met there under the presidency
and management of this master of the show
-Doolittle, Of Wisconsin. The farce was
gone through with Of coupling rebel and
man from the loyal States together, South
Carolina and Massachusetts,, that they might
march arm-in-arm, presenting the appear
an"e Of a loving pair and succession Of pairs.
[Great laughter
''THE LOVING PAIRS"
Why, even that is no new thing. remem-
be. something in Geness-l think it is in
the eighth chapter-something very like it,
when Noah and his family were preparing to
enter into the ark that they had built In ex-
pectation OF the food that the Almighty had
portended. "They," the family, "tbey, and
every beast after bis kind--[aughter] -and
the cattle after their kind, and every creeping
hin0 laughter that creepeth on earth after
his kind, and every foul after his kind, and
every bird Of every sort [great laughter] and
they went in unto Noah into the ark, tVO and
tVO [laughterl Of every kind of flesh wherein
is the breath Of life" And so these men met
there like the men in Noah's ark, and thought
they could perform no better or more impO-
sing ceremony than to enter in two and two,
with this difference, that there they were all
OF kind, and here they were all different
breeds, only likely by prOcreation to produce
monsters and hybrids. Roars of laughter.
Why, believe it was accompanied with
music What that music was | dn not cer-
tainly know, but suppose it ought to have
been Of the mixed kind. They should have
played "Dixe Doodle" [laughter,] or the
"Stars and Bars Mangled Banner,' or some-
thing else with mixed name as well as haT-
mony in order to DO justice to the occasion,
for certainly no regular national tune not
thus crossed would have been appropriate
for such an association.

Another little chapter in the scene. There
Is In New Orleans, as in most other large cit.
les, baggage and transfer company. A re-
turned officer Of our army was an officer of
one OF these companies, He told me, his Of
fee being near the scene of the riot the DO.
lice came to him and said they wished his
baggage wagons to bear away the dead
They seized them, and he said he saw them
repeatedly throw six and eight bodies, black
ana white into one wagon, and carry them
of. He told me of one scene in particular
Eight or ten men had been thrown into
wagon. Two of the first who had been
thrown in (black men) were not quite dead
and the shock revived them. They endeay
ored ieebly to push from them the recnmbent
masses Of corpses. 4 policeman sav il !;
he ledped into the wagon with the erpression,
"GTd d-n you, IwiL fir you so you wtN be
still and Nth his revOLUsr very deliberately blew
out their brains.
Another negro was shot down on the street
and had been left Cor dead. He laid there
until notice of him had ceased. A police.
man came along and noticed that the man
had some life in him. He saw the policeman
and the poor, ignorant, deluded man raised
bis head with aPetition for aid. Instead Of
giving him the aid he requested, be gave him
such as be had been instructed to-. He rails
ed his club and broke his neck ut blow.

ENCOURAGING Edmund Cooper RepreSen-
tative elect from Tennessee, who lad been
acting for some time as the Presidents pri-
vate secretary, was received into the House
July %. His first recorded legislative act
was in opposition to the bill for restoring to
loyal owners property confscated by rObel
governments. Two days afterwards he ap-
pears, with only two others voting for the in
crease of bis own salary TO date from March
4, 1865, while during part of this time ho
had been in Office in the White House },
from SO, 900 to $4,000. It is evident that
no influence on the right side has been gain
ed by his admission.

General Sheridan on the Rebels of
New Orleans.

Gen. Alfred l.. Lee, an Ohicel of cavalry un-
der Gen. Sheridan, made tue following state
menL III recent speech in LeavensworGhi
Kansas
about six months after the war there
were many associations formed, known as
re lief associations, such AS Gibson's Brigade
Relief Association and the Hays Brigade Re-
lief Association. These associations were
made up Of soldiers, and the presidents OF
these associations were the old commanders
OF brigades, and the vice-presidents were the
old COlonels OF regiments, and so down.
They held secret meetings, and were to all
iutents and purposes u military organization.
| Sheridan feared these organizations as nue.
leus for further disturbances, aud he made
up hiS mind to suppress them. he issued an
order declaring that all relief associations
and all associations for the erection OF mon
uments intended to commemorate the late re-
bellon, should be dissolved and suppressed.
When tuey heard Of it, they came and
begged him not 10 issue u. He said 81
know no compromise OF duty. Three weeks
ago thought your organization was mutlE-
Gus, and AT that time | ordered battery OF
ARTILLERY from tue Rio Grande to sweep the
streets tue first motion you made you weie
not wise enough to take the hint, aud now
disperse you ny order"
General Sheridan said: "I fear Northan
men do not understand this thing. In word
thess rebels are willing TO come back IT they
can place the rebel flag right alongside tue
Stars auG Stripes. Tney want to preach re-
