GENERAL sHlRlDAN's GREETING,

sta
New ORLEANS, Dece mber 2S.-The follow
ing are extracts from what the papers say,
CON menting on the report that General
Sheridan has been ordered to New Orleans :
The Times says 4" One of the questions
of the day is whether Philip Sheridan is to
ride down this way or not. Phll. has Deen
here before. His reputation as rider and
raider stands high, but as soothero OF polltl-
cal troubles and corrector of political abuses
he is anything but a success. His conduct
while in command Of this Department was
frequently of the most short.sighted and
al bitrary character, and especially was this
the case in his interference. with our municl-
pal affairs. If a policy Of vengeance is to be
adop ed. Phil. can carry it out successfully,
but he is by nc. means the: proper man to
throw oil on troubled waters" vsr
The Picaplne says: of there. is one man
more responsible than, another for the mis-
fortunes Of Louisiana that man is General
Phil, Sheridan 1t was General Sheridan
who disfranchised the white people of this
State under the first reconstruction law, act
ing in concert with the Radica! committee,
and secretly instructing the registrars to cate
chise the. voters in manner which, while it
was clearly illegal, made it impossible for vast

any change where nothing can be chang
ed for the better. 1t Is our ignorance
that makes Us dissatisfied, A strain of
sad and perplrxed MINOR tones unfolds
Gods will IN harmonies that we cannot
understand, anu we murmur Where
IS any certain tune in such notes as
these 2 But angels. leaning from their
thrones, are not 50 minded Their fine
cars have caught the issue OF completed
cadences. Our own shousightedness
and Inefhcirnc, should lead US to rely
On God, IN the full faith that he knows
what is best for us, and that in his proyi-
dence, whatever is must be right.
And now there is, besides these two,
the one who lives with Cod, and the one
who believes that everything is for the
best, third man. who is contehted and
happy in life. II is he who, with sim
phclty and quietness, makes the most Of
little things the common bounties and
blessings OF existence, not proudly strain
ing after the exceptional prizes of vanity
and ambition. ltis he who learned to
drive away coToding cars, and to oc-
cuPy his faculties in appreciating the
privileges Of his nature ard situation,
laying hold of all the innocent grau6ca-
tlons within his reach. Unrest and dis
satisfaction come from idleness and las
sltude, from neglect of our advantages,
from the cravings of undisciplined de-
sires, and the emptiness of unemployed
powers. The way to grow contented is
to learn how much there is now actually
in our power with which to be satisfied,
and for which to be grateful The most
contented person, other things being the
same, is one whose tastes and wishes are
unsophisticated, in accordance with
truth and natute, and all of whose facul-
ties are busy in reaching out and enjoy
ing these common blessings, which are
not withheld even from the humblest
soul, and the lOwliest cabin. The enjoy
ments OF health and activity, of healthful
scenery, Of exploring thoughts, poetical
creation, pure affection, disinterested la
bors, and imperishable hopes, are be
slowed on all who will lay hold of them,
and to all who appreciate them they
yield satisfaction sufficient to hush every
complaining voice. No palace can
equal this world-abode, sky-domed, star
lighted, cloud curtained, carpeted with
grass and flowers, interlaced with silver
streams, and fringed with the border of
the dark blue sea. Study your nature
and position, grasp the idea Of your end
less heritage, fully enjoy the privileges
actually in your possession now, and
every day, seeing less to complain of,
and more to give thanks for, it will not
be long before you will have learned, in
whatever state you are, Herewith to be
content.

VIGILANCE COMMIIIEE OUI IN IOHA.
DEs MoINEs, December l9.-An uncon-
firmed report was spread here this morn
ing that the vigilants had hung tieorge
N. Kirkman, near Peoria City, twenty
eight miles from here. 1t seems that
Kirkman and his wife have quarreled to
such an extent that they have separated.
She is now residing with her son-in-law,
Mr.. Zinsmaster. Kirkman, while in a
revengeful mood, fired Zinsmaster's barn,
which, with a considerable stock of i'm
plements and grain, was destroyed.
On Monday night large band visited
him, making threats of violence, which,
however, were not executed. Kirkman
has since that time threatened Zinsmas-
ter, which exasperated the vigilants,
who, it is reported, hung him last night.
Two reporters of the State Register have
been sent to the spot. Great excitement
is felt here to learn the truth of the re-
port. No telegraph or railroad commu-
nication within less than fifteen miles of
the place.

James Lambert is of ordinary size, but
clean-built and wiry. The signs of great
activity still linger about him. The easy
attitude in which first saw him, was
that of a man who could spring across
the room in a moment from where he
stood.
In manner he is two men; sometimes
grave, slow and thoughtful; sometimes
frey and vivacious; and the changes are
well timed; Ior he relates his reflections

It is Not Generally Known

That the shortest possible route between the East
and Great West is through St. Louis, over the st
Louis, Kansas City and Northern Short Line.
This road has gained surprising importance by
reason of immense expenditures in the last two
years. of over two million dollars, besides earnings,
in improvements of roadway, in relaying their
line with best quality of new steel and iron rails,
on broad new ties, and bv substituting for ordinary
snew reclining chair coaches, elegantly carpeted
and fitted, with dressing rooms with toilet conven-
fences for ladies' gentlemen and families travelling
with children, lcitho ant extra charge. This line
runs six fast Express trains between the Missis-
sippi and the Missouri Rivers, two more than any
other road, and connects with all the great Land
Grant Roads in the West, and has adopted all mod
ern appliances for comfort. speed and safeguards
against accidents, including night and day watch
men, who inspect the road before and after the
passage of each train TO see that everything is in
order. We recommend those contemplating a trip
West TO take the St. Louis. Kansas City and North
ern Short Line, ii being the only line running
through cars between st. Louis and Omaha, and
for tickets over this excsllent line refer our
readers to any ticket agent selling through tickets
TO the West. For map, circulars and time tables
address either Geo. D. Teller, Buffalo, N. Y; or
P. B. Groat, St Louis, Mo-, either of whom viii

Was it Suicide ?-on Tuesday last,
when the case of the State US. D. o. n, john
son was called, his attorneys arose and stated
to the court that the hat Of defendant had been
found near the Upper Elevator, Toledo, and
in it note to his attorneys, which was read
in court, setting forth thaths was tired Of lie,
felt as though his friends had deserted him,
and did not care to live any longer. He had
deposit of S4OO, aud bond Of $500 for his ap-

forfeited. The circumstances of the case do
not look other than trick to give the opera
tor chance to get away, leaving the impress
sion that he had committed suicide. At all
events, when his body is fshed out of the

otherwise.

Don't Need an Engine on the Hill.
oh, moi The property of citizens may burn, &,
aud taxpayers may be put to loss and incon-

property is protected. and it may cost the
"Remoustrancers" few shillings If another
was purchased. Out upon such a selfish and
penny wise policy. Give the citizen what be
pays for,-protection, whether he lives down
town or on the hill; whsther he resides in g

men should remember that they are the rep
resentativss of all the people, not merely of the
few, and that the people expect aud demand
Oithsm proper appliances for protection. With
an engine located on the hill, as should be,
the FIRE on Thursday morning could have been
put out ere it got fairly started, and without
one there, but for the timely discovery of the
FIRE at Mrs. Welchs, on Tuesday morning, an
other citizens residence would have been de-
stoyed. Six fires on the hill within the past
nine months, and still Roprotection afforded.
