New Orleans Letter to the New York World
General Sheridan says that the White
League are responsible for. the troubles
now pending. Mr.. Phelps, of the Con.
gressional Committee, after a protracted
sojourn here, after a minute and
thorough investigation of affairs from
every point of view, declared that the
White League exerted its influence in

Dibble, in an open letter addressed to
Mr.. Foster, Of the Congressional Com

White League) fell under the leader.

men, whose influence was sufficient to
check in great degree further instances
of outrages upon the blacks. A prom
inent citizen told me last evening that
he was aware that General Sheridan had
a special enmity against the people OF
New Orleans, and, though he was a great
general and was justly regarded with
pride by the people OF his section, he
was at the same time human and
actuated by the passions of common men.
The story he related to justify his state
ment was As follows. | quote his Ian
guage as nearly as possible: General
Sheridan is desirous, in very nigh
degree, of social distinction. When he
came to New Orleans after the war to
carry out the programme of the recon.
structionists, political feeling ran high,
and the citizens, particularly bitter and
indignant at having been deprived of
their chosen representatives, failed to ex,
tend any social recognition TO Sheridan
or his staff. When the General was re-
lieved and returned North he was asked
by G prominent citizen of New York, in
intimate social and commercial relations
with this city, what he thought Of the
people of New Orleans. We'll sir, re-
piled Sheridan, Il found tbem when
they visited me on matters of business,
extremely courteous, refined and polite;

Ex-Gov, Seymour has written letter
on the money question to working man
in Pennsylvania. explaining the evils which
initiation brings to the laboring class. He
writes: paper money is cheap and
makes society drunk as liquor does an in
diyidual. Then comes the reaction, the
delirium tremens. That. is the trouble
now in our country. Business is checked
and thousands of mechanics and laborIng
men are out of work and suffering severely
in our cities, Every one can see, if few
men had the power to change the size of
bushel baskets or the length of yard sticks
when they pleased, that the Iaborers who
buy would be losers. The same thing is
done in effect when the value of bank bills
is changed, for they measure values just
as bushel baskets and yard sticks measure
quantities. There is no limit to the
quantity Of paper which can be printed
and called dollars, but they are not dol
lars. The laboring man if he tolls in fields
or work shops should be paid in good
money, not in money which is at dis
count. He should get money which has
a fixed and certain value. IF others, act
ing upou the government or by other
means, can change the value of paper
dollars by getting greater quantities. the
labOrer will suffer both from paper money
and unsettled business. 1t may be said
the government must put out certain
quantity and then stop, but the history of
all nations shows that they do not stop
putting out paper money until they make
a financial grab"

The generous spirit of reconciliation be-
tween the north and the south which the
centennial exercises at Boston kindled has
been good deal dampened by the attempt
to bring out Mr., Jefferson Davis as an
agricultural orator. The south is good
deal nettled at the opposition to Mr..
Davis's appearance, and many southern
journals declare that the north does not
meet the south half way in the overtures
for reconciliation, Thus the louisville
Courier journal says:
1--WE contend that the south has been
for ten years knocking at the door, and that
when it has asked for bread it has re-
ceived stone. We maintain that, from
the ruling party in the north, nationalism
in the south has received no encouragement
whatever. The war spirit, the sectional
spirit, crops out on every occasion, and in
all possible ways, not privately, but publicly.

Cn,int the Cost.

Count the cost of all thy actions,
 When thou dealest with mankind, Scorning not the lesser fraktions
 Of the pocket or the mind. Purchase not vain adulation
 At Integrity's expense: 'Tis q losing speculation
 To thy character and sense. Be not caught by worldly splendor: Pride and pomp are snares at best, Luring weddings to surrender
 Certain good for sure unrest. Count the cost of idle pleasure;
 Shun it's smooth, insidious friends :; Guard thy moments as treasure
 Held instrust for better ends. Cut acquaintance with Ambition
 Ere thy better motives rust; Honor manhood's high commission i; To thy fellow-map be just. Have thy riches so invested
 That a constant balance stands To thy credit, safe and tested,
 In the Great Accountants hands. Count the cost to deaths grim portal :; Give and get true work and worth {; Serve thy Cop and fellow-mortal
 And thy days are good on earth.
