General sheridan OF for New orleans


/ CHICAGO, December "a LieutenantG Gen:
Ieral Sheridan. accompanied by General
lRucker, Major George Forsythe, and Colonel
NJ. Sheridan, of bis staff, left here last night
for New Orleans. *,
There is high official authority for saying
that General Sheridan does hot go to New
Orleans in obedience to any: direct orders.
but in compliance with the personal request
of the President, who desires t0have some
one at that point in whom he, has implicit
confidence to furnish him with truthful in.
formation, and of such rank that In case Of
emergency he can act without special orders
from Washington. rs.,.-I
General Sheridan. was intending to go to
Cuba in few weeks, and this trip south IS
only anticipating the time, for after short
stay in New Orleans he Will sail for Cuba.
His immediate work in Louisiana is to con.
serve the peace, and he will not remove any
officer or take any part in military affairs
there unless it is absolutely necessary to &C.
complish that object. ii III
WASHINGTON, December 29.-There need
be no doubt about it that General Sheridan
has. documents in his pocket attaching Loui-
siana to his department (which he may pro-
mitigate at his discretion. 1'.is
The Cabinet to-day had Louisiana matters
under consideration. Attorney General Will
liams expressed his views upon the action OF
the Returning Board, strongly asserting his
opinion that it was legal and correct in all
its particulars, and said it should be sustained
by the Government at all hazards. There
was not much discussion upon the subject.
There was some conversation upon the re-
ports of the probable violations of the public
peace upon theassembling Of the. Legisla'
ture on the 4th of january; and the opinion
was expressed that the United States forces
now stationed at New Orleans are sufficient
to prevent any serious outbreak should any
such occur.

A few days ago Colonel Holland, The yete-
ran millwrighf, was at work for Colonel
Woodford in the mill at this place. The
weather was cold, and Mr.. Holland wore 9
heavy, long.tailed coat. In moving about,
the CoIonels coat was caught in the huge
cog. wheels which form the ..'power" of the
whole mill. He saw at once that to take off
the coat was impessible-and then COM
menced the hardest job Of tearing ever
known. Bracing himself against the head
block, he pulled one way, while the cogs
were gradually drawing him closer and
closer to horrible death. He called loudly
for help; and just Sin the nick of time,",'
George Smith. carpenter, who was at work
close by, heard his cries and ran to see what
was the natter Taking in the whole stu
alton at glance, be drew his pocket knife
as he ran, and with one stroke severed the
cloth that was drawing MIR. Holland into
the cogs. he came not moment too soon,
for the Colonel was then within few inches
of the cogs.- Weston Democrat. ~
