And now President Grant has broken his
silence, made platform Of his own, and
flung his third-term banner to the breeze in
defiance Of all party organizations. This
speech is a distinct political departure.
making the bid of desperation for 4 con.
tinuance Of power. 1t inculcates mea-
sure of resentment to the South that is
libel upon all the teachings OF Grant the
soldier, and the distinct declaration that the
issue Of religious faith is to be the battle of
the New World. eVea to sapgainary conflict,
and displays the rec&leSsness of the dems.
gogue to an extent that would disgrace q
ward adveniurer in politics. With our free
schools and integral part OF our free Govern
ment; with the fundapental law of most
States, and the people Of every State, main
tanning them with sanetity that is and
ever must be omnipotent agaiust the pow
ers of this or all other countries, and
with subordination to the civil su-
thority grounded ia every doctrine, and
confessed by all, save here and there bigot,
or fool, or knave, the reckless BID of the
PRESIDENT for hopeless achievement must
fall like tangled music upon the popular ear.
1t will be accepted as the dying agopies of
mad ambition, and it will be remembered
10 the long hereafter that great soldier was
wise In silence through years Of honor and
success, and fell broken on the altar of his
greed for power, as he unsealed bis lips to
fling wild vagaries into the face of his linser.

NEW YORK LEGISLATURE.

ALBANY, Jan. An thesSenate to-day,
resolution submitted yesterday, condem6ing
Sheridan's course in Louisiana, was taken up'
A resolution that was offered yesterday, by
Republican Senator, affirming confidence in
the personal patriotism Of Sheridan, was
adopted.
Further consideration was postponed until
tomorrow.
In the House, the majority of the commit
tee appointed yesterday to draft q resolution
expressive Of the sense of the House on Louis
lama affairs made their report, utterly deprecat-
ing and condemning the interference by the
militaryin the organization of the Legislature,
and the course of PresidentG Grant and the Secre-
tary Of War in relation thereto. The minori-
~ made report which agreed with the ma
jority, that the action which had taken place
in Louisiana deserved a most prompt check,
but they could not agree upon the terms in
which they protested.

AN OUTRAGE.
The Banditti on the Rampage.

The presence of banditti in our city can no
longer be denied.
We would be 10th to give publicity to the
circumstances establishing the fact, were it
not certain that Sheridan is in possession Of
full information regarding them, and that it
is more than probable that Belknap has been
posted. As it is they are very damaging.
At about noon yesterday boy in blue. who
had been around too much and who in conse-
quence was very much fstigued, was being
escorted by guard of one-a brother in arms
up st. Charles street to place where he
could rest his weary limbs and ct the same
time receive q few words of admonition in re-
ference to the sinfulness of such proceedings.
At the corner Of st. Charles and Poydras
streets the tired soldier came to the conclu-
sion that he would go no furtherj and he no
titled his guardian to that effect. He was the
biggest man of the two, and his prytector
could do nothing but solicit a change of mind,
but pleadings and arguments were in vain,
and, as a last resort, the soldier who was not
weary fired his gun in the air several times,
it is supposed, for the purpose of getting
assistance. This proceeding naturally at
tracted a crowd, aud among the many gath
cred were several banditti.
One of them looked on for . time and then
tried his persuasive powers, but without e.
feet And Of last, becoming disguised, he
gave the regulation yell and shouted: "Say
you, some of you banditti, take hand and
move this man" When, horrible to relate,
two ferocious looking men stepped out and
they, with the one whose call they had
obeyed, seized on that boy in blue and, fol-
lowed by the man with the gun, bore him
bodily to the quarters Of the troops.
After this who can deny that Sheridan was
right?

From the Detroit Free Press. I

John Robinson made New Years calls. He
called on saloon keeper, he called for liquor,
called the liquor good. and drank enough to
trip him up. Then he called tor police, and
when the police came he called them liars and
such.
II was having little fun" he explained,
winking at his Honor
"John Robinson. are you aware that this is
q very solemn world" said the Court, "a
world which has ten heart aches to one smile
Don't you know that the grim shadow of grief
rests upon every door step, and that the tomb
stones in the cemeteries almost outnumber
the trees in the forest? There's wailing in
every household, John Robinson = there's
grief in every heart And yet you claim that
you were only having a little fun!"
That's all your honor !; it was holiday. I"
:" 1t was sad fun, John Robinson. While
all the rest Of us were swearing of and making
double back-action resolves you were lying al
the corner of an alley dead drunk It is IS or
sixty days. sir, and if this case was before
Chicago police justice, he'd make it $500 OF a
