Letsor from sherman.

A letter from General Sherman is in
Washington, in which he says: " Ny idea
Is that eYe;y young and middle-sgea man
ought to be proud of the chance to fight
for the integrity of his country. I would
Ike 70 see all trade and commerce abso-
lutely cease until this conflict is over; and
all who can fight and won't fight, ought
to be killed OF banished; and those who
won't support those who do fight should
be denstionalized."

GeneraI Thanas.

.Just before Thomas moved from Nash
vile against Hood, an order came reroov-
ing him from command. His successor
reached Louisville, when Thomas tele-
graphed to Stanton, that his arrangements
had been made for en- attack on the ensu-
ing morning and he did not like to trust
the command TO another. Stanton Te-
piled, ego ahead" The result has been
that Thomas is enrolled with those other
worthies, Grant, Sherman and Sheridan.

The Florence (Ala.) Journal says the con-
test il that district for Congress il between
Hon. Thomas J. Foster and Mr.. c. c. Sheets.
The Journal supports the former, seeming
10 think the dearest interests Of the coun-
try can be promoted by his election. Mr..
Foster was member Of the rebel Congress
A few weeks ago he wss in This city. on his
way nome from Washington with MS par.
don in his pocket. Il elected he csnnot take
the Congressional oath. Unless the cath il
repealed, which is not probable, be could
not take his seat IN the Houfe. Mr.. sheets
is what the Rev. Jos. r. Morris, candi-
dste for Congress in the Huntsville district,
calls "blaek hearted tory''-that is,
q true hearted, unswerving Union man.
He maintained his loyalty during the war,
and was prosecuted for his hrmuess aud
honesty, thrown in Jail, aud his life threat
ened. Wien Mr.. Foster arrived at home
he withdrew from the canvass; but was in
duced TO continue in the field by number
Of his friends, who IN a published letter
gtated that his withdrawal would have the
''siiect Of eleeiing the ve-y candidate (lJr
Sheets TINT Is to US the most objectionable
] So these unrePentaut rebels expect to defesi
Mr.. Sheets with pardoned brother. The
election Of Mr.. Foster, under such circum-
stances, would 20 far towards inducing
Congress to repeal the osth--wouldnt it?
