SCLaVONYAN HOLIDAYS.

The Sc,avoniaiss Of Carson ard vicin-
i:y had their Christmas. "Wednesday,
which they celebrated in no very public
but in very happy way among them
selves Their New Year comes on JAN
uary IS. wnen they intend having an
S.her jolly time. These people held on
| to tbs calculation Of Lnlius Cesar. The
Julian calendar was originated in 81
before Christ. According 10 its data the
year contains 1861. days. which is not
exactly correct; for, according to later
and more accurate astronomical invesii-
cations one revolution OF the earth
around the sun is accomplished in $50
days, ) hours, As minutes, ard &C Sec
onis-shoving an excess of time in the
calculation, If IL minutes and II Sec
onds. by simple process Of reckoning
it will be found that this surplus. in the
course Of 128 years, amounts to 81 hours
or one day. Hence there has occurred
in century this difference. that in 1882
the equinox fell on the 1lth Of March
instead OF the 21st March, that is, 10
days too early. Now. from the year As
before Christ 10 15S2 after Christ. 1926
years have passed; these divided by l2S,
gives neatly IS days, whence it appears
that the chronology of Julius Cesar has
not been exactly followed. The calen-
Jar reform was effected by Pope Gregory
NH in the year 1852. This year was
shortened ten days. Il was determined,
in order that the error Of earlier times
might no. be repeated, that every 400
years three leap days should be dropped.
The Gregory Calendar was introduced
in ali Catholic countries and since tie
IS;h century has been adopted by Prot
estants. Only in Russia is the Julian
Calendar retained; and is, therefore. at
present. IL days behind accordir 6 to our
style of reckoning time. The Sclavo-
MAN nations retain the Russian method
Of time computation. hence the peeuli-
arity of the festival occasions we have
referred 20 in the first part OF this

The NEW ORLEANS TROUBLE.

ax. the cont st for seats determined by
the tayonst. The contemplation Of
sacl. s;tn alton makes every genuine
D-niocrst 81 Republican shudier. This
= true. If course But the question
which tie people 81! over the United
States are earnestly and angrily de5at-
.us. is whether i: was necessary and
light that military force should he made
10 supercede ard control the civil de-
partner. Of The State, /; is our opin-
ion that Gen. SheriIln did the best he
r1uid under the circumstances. Hardly
any motive can he addUcei why he
should waEtouly Eiount n guard of
United States troops over ! jsfenseleSs
STATE House. He could have had no
personal motive TO subserve. Audit is
not reasonable to suppose that his be-
Llyio1r WIS rash az that lie lsd any
spite To indulge. On the other hand It
aust be presumed that he went South
with . thorough understanding o. the
nature Of the work he had undertaken.
Ills reputation as national man was ct
stake in tie enterprise. He has proved
Limsel! 4 eallaEt soldier. and, surely
his pride would lie wounded by the i'm
yatation Of taking advantage of those
IN his power CT Of minimizing an IN
armed community. It would lie much
uoTe reasonable TO attribute the unhappy
elimination Of the troubles to the unfor-
taua;a circumstances in which they orig
mated. Aftsra sectional war must come
sectional strife. The results oi the war
necessarily are more disastrous than the
IaiseIies suffered while tie way was In
progress. Taking the discussion where
j; is jrs: now, without going back into
bellum and ante bellum times, Sheridan
seems TO have been forced into either re-
IirquisLins the purpose of his mission
or else 70 employ the rough remedy which
lie chased 20 resort to. Besides it is
condrmaio-y argument IN favor of
Sheriian's conduct that Secretary Bel

wiling to risk their standing with the
