SHERIDAN'S MILITARY STANDING.
New York Express.1

Sheridan has been called very able graduate
OF West Point, but not so able-accordlng to the
record.not even as high as the President In a
twenty-one, with Ingalls, and Dent behind him
while Sheridan, in class QS53) of ffty.two. was
but number thirty-four. The leading man OF
Grants class was prescribed Federal soldier,
William b. Franklin, and Of Sheridan's, James B.
Macpherson, dead at Atlanta, and now almost
forgotten. But West Point il not just the school
for civilians, though the Constitution of the
United States is presumed to be studied there.
Nor is it the best school i'll which to make Presi-
dents as experience has shown. For making
army officers there may be no schools better. but
when mere cavalry raiders are turned into lieu
tenant generals, and Interchangeable address
civilians as banditt," .murderers" and "as-
sassins," and then persist in their assaults and

An Incident in Sheridan's Life.

Correspondence Rich nond Dispatch.1
Sheridan graduated at the United States
Military Academy about 1853, and was soon
after assigned to the Fourth United States
Infantry, then serving on the Pacific coast.
Grant was a captain of the same regiment
and company, and it was during the years i'm
medlately preceding the war that the founda-
ton was laid for the remarkable congeniality
which now exists between these two.
1t is probable that Grants estimate of Sher-
ldan as soldier of nerve and prompt action
may have first been formed from one incident
OF Sheridan's early military experience. On
certain occasion he, with detachment of
infantry, was OBTAINING, under an enforced
surveillance, number of Indian warriors and
chiefs who had been brought in to have a talk
and settle some issue which had been made
with the Government
Considerable delay having taken place in
assembling all the parties to the proposed
council these Indians became FESTIVE and
impatient and suspicious, and finally, headed
by their principal war-chief, thew proceeded
in body to Sheridan's tent and throuph
their leader notified him detiantly that chew
would remain there no longer. The Young
!leutenant's only reply was q shot through the
heart OF the chief, which laid him dead ut
the tent-door, and caused the whole force to
instantly surround and iron the remaining
warriors.
IN this we see the peculiar capacity de-
veloped at an early age, which marks him
above all other soldiers or civilians in the
country, as especially unqualified to deal with
an issue SO grave and delicate as that which
now bears down the people of Louisiana to
the very earth, and fills the whole continent
with gloom and anxiety.

Is IT REVOLUTION!

Gen. Garfield, leading member of tn
Republican party, stated at the House caucus
held few days ago ut Washington, that a
the meeting of the Thirty Eighth Congress
when it was feared that the Clerk would no
correctly call the roll of the Republican,
elect, two hundred soldiers were detailed
and secretly placed in the basement of Tho
Capitol to act under the direction of Thad
Stevens, lin case of a political emergency
brought on by the Clerk"
Gen. Garfield did not state the manner in
which these troops were to be used, but we
may presume they were to obey Mr.. Stevens
and drag from the House every member who
might be pointed out by the self.constituted
dictator. Nor did Gen. Garfield explain, so
far as the report ct the caucus informs us,
what relevancy this anecdote bears to the
present condition of political affairs. It NAV
be that it was designed simply to exhibit q
precedent for military interference with legis-
latlve bodies a precedent establishing the
propriety of even filling the halls of Congress
with troops and debating its organization at
the point of the bayonet
We believe that Gen. Garfield had another
purpose in recalling the incident. He and
his party contemplate at Washington the pos
slbllity of coup detat similar to that Of De
Irobriand at New Orleans. The majority of
Democrats in the next House is less than the
number of Democrats elected from the States
lately in rebellion. Suppose it should be re-
solved by Gen. Grant and his conspirato1s
that the Clerk of the present House, in organ
izing the next, shall leave from the roll the
names of all Democrats from the
South, and suppose the President sees to it
that regiment of soldiers are concealed in
the basement of the Capitol to protect the
clerk, would not such condition of affairs be
precisely what occurred last week in New Or
leans Is this supposition violent one
We cannot think so, when we remember that
after the war, while the Southern States were
as States and before the recon
struction acts were passed, the clerk of the
former Congress refused to place upon the
roll the names of members elect from the
South.-NobIe Req;ster.

MIR. d. W. Bartlett, the Washington cores
pendent Of the Troy Times, has had the felicity
OF observing President Grant and Vice President
Wilson at their devotions both at the same time.
The occasion was Sunday service in the Meth
oaist metropolitan Church, and the Rev. Dr.
officiating clergyman. The service lasted for
nearly two hours, and the correspondent had an
excellent opportunity to contrast the bearing of
the two men under the preaching. Mr.. Wilson,
believed when we consider who the preacher
was-shiftcd his position constantly, and listened
to the sermon as though he was criticising it
but Gen. Grant scarce moved his head or BODY
IN the whole service, and he seemed to take the
sermon as a COW does northeastern"

Gov. Kellogg has repeatedly affirmed that
Louisiana under his rule is peaceful, and that
only few political agitators are dissatisfied with
his government. Gen. Sheridan, on the con-
tary, informs the President that there is no gov
eminent, and asks for proclamation authoriz-
ing him to punish leading citizens as banditti.
There is discrepancy in the views of the Gov
ernor and the General, and it is the more remark
able as they are both on the same side. Ir

there, and 1t is not quiet Kellogg has no right

reviewers, what be meant By bandlttl'"
There was reason for explanation. IL was
needed to break the force Of the torrent OF
indignation against him. lie now compares
the White League OF Louisiana to the "Jay-
hawkers" of Kansas and says he meant that
the White League was band of laWless per-

1t Is a great gain to civil life when man
like SHERIDAN is compelled to explain his
lusolence. But the explanation does not
mend the matter. The White League is
mainly composed of gentlemen superior IL
every civil virtue to SHERIDAN himself. he
SANDERS them, and endeavors to put under
the ban an organization whose patriotic pur'
pose is to protect society against the outrages
of banded thieves, and against leagues (olack

Radical power since the beginning of the war.
The reckless insolence that may lead man
to outrage all justice and decency can never
