The CANNIBALISM Of the Arabs during the
recent famine in Algeria, appears to be proved
by letters published, in the French pancrs,
One writer at Toulon says Fight Arabs,

condemned on charge of cannibalism to i'm.

undergo their punishment. These wretches,
impelled by hunger, made very many renasts

SHERMAN ON GRANT.-Many of the Demo.
cratic papers, in order to detract from tho
'hlllCary renown OF Hen. Grant, are attributng
many OF his great achievements to his coadiu-
tors and su5orlinates, and quote the testimony
OF the General to Sherman. Sheridan Nc.
Pherson, and others, to show that many of his
best acts of his campaigns were due to these
gallant associates
In lS64 General Sherman, after Gen. Grant
had made his official report in which so much
credit was bestowed upon Sherman and otbor.
n1med above, wrote the following declaimer to
Gen. Grant, lest the latter's di>intere ted praise
should create false impression in the mind of
the future historian. We make the following
extract from this letter, for information to
these papers:
