WAS he RIGHT?

On the sixth day Of August, 1866, but a
few days after the terrible massacre OF
Republicans by Democrats paroled from
the Confederate army, General Sheridan
wrote from New Orleans to President
johnson:
There is now test of what shall be the
status of Northern men-whether they can
live here without being in constant dread or
not: whether they can be protected in life
and property, and have justice in the courts
II this matter is permitted to pass over
without thorough and determined prose-
cution OF those engaged in it, we may look
out tor frequent scenes of the same kind,
not only here, but in other places. No steps
have yet been taken by the evil authorities
to arrest citizens who were engaged in the
massacre, Or policemen who perretrated
such cruelties.' The members of the con-
vention have been indicted by the grand
jury, and many OF them held to bail.
His Accidency was not President to
act in such case, and the riot was 'per-
mitted to pass over without thorough
and determined prosecution of those en-
gagged it." We have since had the Cou-
shatta and Colfax outrages, murders and
assassinations unnumbered, and they
have been permitted to pass over because
a reign of terror has existed. We refer
to the frequent atrocities not because
they are not well known, but to show
with what prophetic wisdom General
Sheridan spoke of the situation eight
years ago. There has been no very
marked improvement since then. If any,
thing, the enemy shows better organiza-
ton. On the th!r.ieth Of July, 1866, it

THE GOLDEN MOMENTS ARE PASSING.

| The GULDEN MOMENTS AXE PASSING.
About fifty propositions are made every
week by the Conservative papers for ''re-
forms which ought to be attended to at
once" Yet we never hear word of ad-
vice to the refractory members of their
party about attending to the duties they
were elected to perform. A denial is made
in one paragraph that the House has a
quorum or ever has had, while in the next
they are ordered to fall to at once and
pass some measure that forms pet hobby
of our patent reformers. The harvest is
| ready for the sickle, but the laborers are
! on a strike. They are held in state of
| inactivity by those who have made them
selves sureties for the enactment of salu-
tary measures; yet, upon the first intima-
ton that any Of the Democratic members
intend to break off their tomfoolery and
join their Republican. colleagues in the
House, they are assailed with threats
Of the vengeance of their consti-
tuents. It is generally stated in
gingerly terms, ''We are sure the Hon.
