GENERAL SHERIDAN S ORDER | General fbi. Sueridaa’s fast order, wer | WHl be found el-ewhere in oar paper to-day, is wet! caicuinted to give great satisfaction to qbe loyal masses throughout the country.

Herron, the Attorney ‘iene. | Tsi ot Lourtana; Jobe T. Monroe, the Mayor rst District Court of New Orleans, all of | whom made themselves chnoxious to loyay people by siding and abetting, as well as sub- sequentty defending the course of the ci thorities at ‘he time of the riot. That such of- | ficials ehould, in the language of Gen. Sheri- | dan, “failto carry outthe provisions of the | Inw” was to beexpected from their antece- | dents. The General appointed im their places B. L. Lynch. Attorney General: Edw’ Heath, Mayor, and W. Horn, Judge of the District | Court. Edward Hea'h, the new Mayor, is a | prominent merchant of New Orleans, and was Chairman of the Committee of Finanee of the | Provisional Government established by Gea, Bavke. Ali of the new appointees are said to be men of undonbred loyalty and unexcep- tionabie character. This prompt and decisive Action of the Commander of the “Fifth Dis- trict’ not only satisfies the Union men that | they are to be provected in their persons, prop- | erty, avd rights, but ie calculated to con vince those of the late rebels who are still hostile to the Union that their power to work mischief | is indeed atanend. Gen. Sheridan evidently does not believe in the possibility of loyal State governments bewg formed or conducted { by disloyal men, and has set an example worthy of imitation THE LEADER AND THE STAn Drowning men sre said io cluteh at straw. but we would cuggest to ovr unselfish co'em- | porary. the Leader, that uatrathfal deta of 8 neighbor is not exactly the wa it the sdpport and circuiation it u lacus.

The falsehood of the Leeder that the Star sapported tae war only “by publi-bing the plain war baile. tas without comment,” needs no denial to those who remember the storm of abuse poured upon the STAK from rebels and Tebel sympathizers throughout the war for its Outs pokes denunciations of them and exposare of their schemes. Even in the inctpicucy of the rebellion we bad by our course esarued the ferocious hate of the rebels and copper. beads. as shown by the assaults upon the STAzR office by the revei «National Votunteers and by the fierce denunciations of the Star mm the meetings of that and kindred organiza. ulons We are not disposed to repel with the same urposes, earnectness the furtber charge of the L-)(-- | south side of F street, near 1ith s TU the 2ith.W that the STAR gives more space to news and eo pt ‘tl spskep from 3 Advertising than to editorial. ror, since it net only reverses this order of things tr ite own columns, but carries its atter sbnegation of news to the extent of eschewing } every particle of original telegraphic matter or | cable news! We trnst that the Lemisr’s ex- | Ppectations of prosperity may be realized—pe- Meving, as wedo, that there is room tor au— | but certainly do not see any occasion for dread- ng it as a dangerous rival.

For five years psa tthey have, as & class, bad unprecedented presperity, and they ure determined now to make the most of it. Oor eity jobbers are equatly conservative aud equally sound One or two leading firms report great actiy- ity the past week, and are themselves sur- prised to find that their acgregate scales amount to more than ever before during the corresponding period. This, however, is an exception to the general rule. Manufacturers are pusbing their goods, being afraid to have their alrendy large sarpine stocks accumulate. The clothing trade is extremely dull. and one or twe failures and come extensions are reported. Cotton is lower and heavy, and this Makes a dull marker Krown skeetings have been active ata de- che on standsrd makes of about balf per cent & yard.

These small counties, with rel. on but a population of 15°04, controlled the power of the State: and no one coutd claim thatsuch a form of government was repub- lican.
