General Sheridan.

The strange Radical performances of
this officer, at New Orleans, have created
10 little surprise. as well as Indignation.
Sheridan Is a young regular army officer.
with 10 political antecedents whatever
Such men have usually been found to be
pretty fair custodians Of power, and indis-
posed to use 1t for purposes Of political or
personal tyranny. 1t might naturally be
supposed that such would have been the
case with Sheridan when he was thrust in
to the important position Of Dictator of
New Orleans and the surrounding country.
These anticipations have not been real
ized. On the contrary, he has distinguish
ed himself most unenyiably by the p%ervert-
ed use he has made Of his power, and by
has extreme and utter subserviency to ev-
cry project and every idea that Radical
yillalny could coin. He seems to have en-
deayorcd to render himself and the Uni
ted States Government as obnoxious and
hateful as possible to all those under his iron
sway. lie is the most willing and sub.
se%rvient military tool which the Radicals
have found since the days of Butler, Burn
SIuci DCIcnck hunter ana Lew. Wallacc.
AS 1t is not possible that Sheridan has
any very strong political attachments, the
reasons Of his conduct must be found else
where. He is undoubtedly catering aud
bidding for what he supposes to be pcrma-
nent power in the United States, in order
to make favor for his own advancement
He has, therefore, in his anxiety to con-
ciliate his congressional masters, divcd
deeper and come out muddier in PARTISAN
filth than almos. any other officer. His
d~isreputablc proceedings and high-handed
usurpation in Louisiana have greatly tar.
nished the military reputation he acquired
in the war. His failure as a civil com.
mander is even more apparent than were
his successes as a cavalry officer.

We published on Sunday a polished, en-
thusiastic letter for Mr.. Speaker CoLFAx,
in favor of the Fcnia1s and their cause.
Mr.. CoLFAx is probably the smallest
man in intellectual staure who ever filed
so high a position, and yet carried away by
a most inordinate ambition that has no re-
gard for propricty, he is actually a candi-
date for President Of the United States.
1t occurred to him that if he could by a
cheap way identify himself as friendly to
the Fenians, that it might be used as an
argument in favor of his nomination by his
partissans, that he could, if nominated, Sc
cure the Fenian vote. Whether after his
nomination he could or not would make
little difference, as the main thing would
have been accomplished.
If there are any Irishmen in the country
who, knowing CoLFAx,s antecedents, as
well as those of his party; can be blinded

piacein thus city, resulting in the production
Oh the letter, they and not the country from
which they came, are peculiarly yerd,nt
and green. But we have no fears. The

The New York correspondent of the Al.
bany Argus writes as follows:
1T is noteworthy, that any subject an
nounced which is not religious draws a full
house. Politics will pack Beecher's ediice
closer, by far, than piety. Social topics,
if they touch the popular hearts, send the
pulses ~throbbing to the finger-tips, and as
on last Sunday, set the hands to expressing
their sympathy and appreciation in a very
emphatic, if not a rev%erential, manner"
There is a whole volume Of texts in the
above. Radicalism has not only democrat
lied politics in the country, but it has de-
fled and dishonored religion. 1t has done
its best to stamp all vital piety out, and
causes it to drag and daggle in the mud
and filth of partisan corruption. Years
and years will elapse before the injury
which has been inflicted by this party up
on the cause of religion can be repaired.
1t is not to be wondered at that people pre-
fer to hear BEEcHER on av~owedly political
topics, for in them there is less hypocrisy
displayed than when he blazons out TIE
same sentiments under the mask of reliSion.
The truth is, however. that these political
preachers have so blended religion and
politics together, that there is great diff
Guilty In determining where the one begins
and the other leaves off. for it is political

OwYHEE ITEMs.-From the Bullion and
AvGlGnche we CLEAN the following:
At the late term of the District Court for
Owyhee, M L. Smith pleaded guilty to the
charge Of arson, and was sentenced to eight
years Imprisonment in the Penitentiary. The
trial. of Dan. McCarty, for murder, was con-
tinued over till next term.
The Apollo Minstrels-Eugene Holman,
Chapman and others-were very successfully
entertaining the Silver City folks with their
excellent order of Notwithstanding, dancing
and burlesques. They merit success. 40
VIM. Black, of Orc, in the Flint District,
was rnortally shot on Thursday evening of last
week, as he was in the act of passing from a
room in his own house to the cellar, by an out
door way, with lighted candle in his hand
He was shot by Indians, who were concealed
near another house, about forty feet distant
and the fatal wound was given by an arrow
which pierced his breast near the heart. Next
morning he died. The tracks of five mecca
sined Indians were seen near the place, and
several more on the mountain near by. The
AralGNche says Indian signal fires are seen al
most every night OF the mountains near Orc.
Mr.. Black was pioneer to this coast.
Still another Indian outrage is chronicled by
the Araldnche. 1t says the stage was fired
1uIU NY d parry VI SdfdStS near OOGbOHWOOu
Station, fifteen miles from Silver City, at 2
O'Clock Friday morning. The driver, and Mr..
Brooks, from the Sheep Ranch, were the only
persons on thu stage, but they returned the
fire SO vigorously that the Indians fled They
shot and killed one of the horses, however, and
the driver put out his coach lamps ard drove
into the station with the three horses.
Rumors had reached Silver City that Gen.
Crook had lost nine men, killed in big fight
with the Indians near Goose Lake.
A committee consisting of A. H. Webb, G.
w. Grayson, t. j. Butler, T. H. Smith and
Geo. Vass, were appointed at a meeting of
citizens of Silver City, to communicate with
the Right Rev. Bishop futile of this Episcopal
diocese, and to adopt measures to secure the
support of resident Protestant Episcopal
clergyman in that place. The sum of $3.50 in
greenbacks per month"; it is believed, can be
safely pledged to that purpose.
w. L. Burnham and j. McCourt, of the
party Of six who went in quest of the Indians
that murdered Sergeant Denoille and kid,
mapped his wife, had returned to Silver City
They found Denoille's body stripped but not
mutilated, $50 in greenbacks, German Bible,
portions of a lady's dress, and what seemed a
lady's hat ribbon-some of the articles five
miles apart The Indians went towards the
Owyhee. Major Hunt and Capt. Coppinger,
with sixty soldiers, are in pursuit of the saw
ages, who are estimated to be all the way from
ten to forty in number. They evidently car
ried off Mrs Denoille alive.
