THE FIFTH SATRAPSY.
Sheridan's Removals in New Orleans
The AcQuiescence and even IndiGer.
ence of the People.

From the n. o. Times, llth.
In the days of the Reign of Terror in
France, historians and novel historians tell
us of the C0nciergerie and its ill-mated in
mates. They tell us how the prisoners
gathered each morn at sunrise in the main
hall, making the aisles of the prison echo
with the solemn clank of their letters,
gathered to hear the names of those whose
heads were TO fall Days were these of the
guillotine They also tell us how the SEN
sibilities of the people of Paris became so
infatuated to the sight of the hurdle that
conveyed the unfortunates to their doom
became 80 used to the sickening hiss Of the
axe as it fell on PROSTATE heads, that they
looked upon it as an entertainment, as a
show; that their eyes coveted the sight,
and crowds of men, women and children
trod one another to death pressing to look
upon the last agonies Of those who were to
be gathered among the departed. This is
the truth.
The sensibilities of our own people have
become blunted to the bloodless triumph OF
a blocdless axe, and it is now with the at
most GOODNESS, with the most extreme SANG
froid, they read the lists of the decapitated,
turn down the newspaper, shrug their
shoulders, and like the barber when his
work on one has been finished, the only
thing they have to say is, who next? Re.
sistance is not thought Of Like the caval-
rymen of the Light Brigade, the whole
people believe.
Theirs not to reason Why"
Truly have the operations of the Com
manding General become town talk. As
the incumbent is presented with the "order
that reigHs," he knows it doesn't reign in
Warsaw, but in New Orleans-and he gath
ers up his papers, balances his accounts
and politely offers the newly appointed his
seat. Like the Arkansas Traveller, he
says, Stranger, take cheer"
AS there is but one step from the sub
lime to the ridiculous, so there is but one
from melancholy to humor, and the de-
capitated themselves joke on the subject
more than the outsiders, laugh at their i'll
fortune and shame the blue devils by a
pun.
There are always certain classes who
curry favor with the reigning power, be il
the power of the populace, or the baton Of
a General. Here We are similarly blessed
Sheridan is the ruler to-day, who will b,
tomorrow No matter who, sovereignty
of populace or other rulership the old bal
lad is true,
when one goes out the other comes in.
When one gees in the other comes out;
Where'er j sc. wherever I've been
There are but two classes, sir. in or out"
The old French proverb has it:
lie Rel est mort; yive lie R1i."
Nothing could be more expressive than
this. The King is dead; long live fh'
King. Before the dead monarchs shoe
have become cold, & foot is ready to be sho'
with them.
