NEW On1EAss. Jan. 20-Tho political storm
which commenced hero two weeks ago, and
wl,ich has boon creating such stir In every
portion OF tho country, has loft this city III
DEAD CALM.
Tim theatre OF action has bcon removed from
Esv Orleans to Washington, and now politicians
of all degrees and beliefs tnrn their eyea to that
noitical Mecca for o solution Of our troubles.
The determined expressions Of f3on. Sheridan in
regard to tho White League hayo had the effect
OF Keeping that organization back IN
the shade nomewiint, though sono
companies have had drills in out.of' the-way por"
tiopB OF the city within tho lnat week. TAere Is
no talk OF dsorganizinE tho body, though 1t 1s
difficult to aee LII what way thoy can even holp
tholr own ca,so In maintaining their present
STATUS without they intend to resist the Geheral
Government In its efforts to Uphold the doverli-
tnort OF tho State. hlombers Of tho League are
profuso in their protoslatsons that thoy have no
ouarrel With the Federal Government, and drhw
very flno line between shooting the militia
man WHO defends the logal Government Of the
State md the "hoy in hlue" who doeH Tie sama
