Time Makes All Things Right.


General Sheridan, while in command
of Louisiana, did not choose to adopt
the policy of Andrew Johnson. As a
consequence, he was removed, and sent
out on the plains to fight tie Indians.
No act of Johnson'S was more popular
with the rebels and more unpopular
with the loyal people than that. But
we are told time makes alldhiDgs right.
In this case the old provCFb proves true.
On Thursday, u. S. Grant was inaugur-
ated President Of the United States On
Friday, Sheridan was promoted to
the position of Lieutenant General.
On Saturday, by direction of the Presi-
dent and the command of the General
of the Army, Lieufenant General Sher-
idan was assigned to the comm and of
the Department of Louisiana.
Other military shuffies made by john
son, in order TO defeat the execution of
the Reconstruction laws, have been up
set by Grant. Candy returns to the
First Military District, while Reynolds
goes back to Texas. Gillem, who suit
ed Johnson IA the Fourth District, Joins
his regiment. Hancock, who was call

Grant, Is sent to Dakota. Emory, WHO
intimated to Johnson that the military
could not be used in. q coup a ctat, is

partiHent of Washington. Order No.

Waiting the breath Of the violet and rose
Freely and gladly to me-
Give, say the trees, and the purple-crown-

As they yield up their fruits that so lus-

And Juices to crimson and sparkle in wine,
For winter-time stormy and cold

And can we her pleadings Withstand,

Mr.. A. T. Stewart being ineligible to
the Office of Secretary of the Treasury
under the law creating that Office, has
finally declined his appointment there
to. The President viii it is believed,
tender the Treasury portfolio to Hon.
George S. Boutwell,, of Massachusetts.
The appointment of Mr.. Boutwell, will
probably prevent the continuance of
Judge Hoar in the office of Attorney
General, as it is not the Presidents in
tention to have two Cabinet officers
from the same State. 1t is reported
that Mr.. Washburne viii in few days
retire from the State Department and
be appointed to foreign mission. Mr..
Schotield, it is expected will withdraw

The Cuban Revolution

Cuba is divided in:o three depart
ments the Eastern, Central, and
Western. The Western is the most
populOus, and has, so far, remained
within the control of the Spanish au-
thorities. The Eastern district is al
most altogether in the hands Of the
ReyoIutiontsts; the Spaniards having
no troops there, except on the sea-cost;
and in the Middle district the accounts
even of the SpaDiards show that the
reyolutiOnists have gained the predom-
inence.
What we believe to be trustworthy
private reports assure us that the revo-
Iutionists have now twenty-five thous-
and men under arms, and forty thous-
and more ready to servo, but not arm
ed. The Spanish forces are believed to
amount to ten thousand regular troops,
besides volunteers. The volunteers,
however, have been of little use so far.
Five thousand Spanish troops are on
the way from Spain, as reinfOrcements.
The reVOlutionists have plenty of
money, and are now getting an abun-
dance OF arms. Small vessels. laden
with material of war, land on the cosst
with little difficulty, particularly
on the keys east of Neuvitas. or fleet
| at ten vessels, nine safely landed their
| cargoes, and only one was captured.
| The rcvOlutionists have among them,
we are told, number OF experienced
!
Europeans; and it is hinted that some
Americans have recently gone to the
| Island.
The war is going on in all the depart
ments; but the revolutionary general
in-chief, Cespedes, is in the Eastern
District with his main force; and his
/ principal lieutenant, Quesada, lies with
not less than eight thousand men, il is
said, between Nuevitas and Puerto
| Principe. 1t was Lesca, the Spanish
| commander at Nuevitas, who was yes
terday reported to have "outwitted y
| Quesada, by evadiDg his army. But
when government troops boast of eva
ding their opponents, that in itself is
a confession of weakness.
| The revOlutionists complain that our
| government treats them shabbily, that
it allows the SpaniardS to obtain here
the materials Of war, but refuses alllike
fayors TO the revolUtionists. We ought
at least to be neutral. If tie reYOlu-
| tionists continue to make as good a
fight as they have made already, Spain
viii not be able to conquer them.-N,

atrocious and objectionable of all of

acts was to revoke the pardons issued

hope the new President will proceed
