SHERMAN AND GRANT-THEGREAT
BLUNDER OF THE LATTER.

Gen. Sherman seems to have chronic
antipathy to Washington. When the
grade of Lieutenant General was con.
ferred upon Gen Grant Sherman wrote
him remarkable letter, in which he
said
"You occupy position of almost dan
gerous elevation but if you can continue
as heretofore to be yourself-simple, honest
aad npretending-you will enjoy through
life the homage of millions: Now, as to
the future Don't stay in Washington.
Halleck is better qualified than you to
stand the Bullets Of intrigue ana policy.
For Gods sake and your country's sake
come out Of Washington"
Gen Grant had written to Gen Sher-
man, in advising him of his expected APP
pointment, that he should accept Of no
appointment which would require him
to make Washington his headquarters
"The prophetic wisdom of Gen. Sher-
mans counsel" says the Boston Post
SIS confirmed by the result. If Gen.
Grant had needed the advice and gone
out of Washington; if he had followed
the suggestion of his own impulses; if he
had pursued the course which his honest
impressions had dictated in other
words, if he had been himself instead Of
Mr. f. b Washburne, OF any other po-
litieal intriguer, he wenld have escaped
the snare into which he has fallen, and
from which all the power and prestige
Of his former glory viii fail to eztricate
him. He is great man who knows him
self; but he is greater man who with
acknowledge has the courage and firm
ness to be himself We have, perhaps,
in the advice Sherman gave Grant an
explanation of the reason why the former
asked the President not TO assign him to
the command of the Department of the
Atlantic. There is scarcely doubt that
he desired to keep away from Washing
ton and Washington influences, to avoid
"the Bullets of intrigue and policy, to
which Grant has fallen prey The fate
Of Grant should warn Sherman, if be is
disposed in the least to listen to the Rad
icsl syrens, to keep away from Washing

Meeting of the National Democratic
Committee.

Meeting of the National Democratic
Committee.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-Members of the
National Democratic Committee met in
formally this morning. 1t seems under
stood that the committee appointed by the
Chicago National Convention will hold
a private meeting, at which many prelim
mary matters will be considered. Among
the most important are, whether the regn
lar sessions of the committee shall be open
to the public, and as to the powers of the
irregularly appointed members from the
Southern States. A preliminary meeting
will be called by August Belmont, and will
probably be held tonight Cincinnati,
New York, Philadelphia and st. Louis are
competing cities for the convection. 1t
was finally decided at informal meeting
this morning that the National Democratic
Committee appointed at Chicago should
meet tomorrow at noon, with closed doors,
| to arrange details which are to govern the
| regular meeting,
The Committee OH Elections have agreed
| that Mr.. Butler, member elect to the
House of Representatives from Tennessee,

| gress, owing to his having occupied g seat
in the Legislature of Tennessee and taken
an oath to support the Confederate States
government, but as he was unquestionably

| the time, the committee will recommend
the House to pass joint resolution ssmilsr
| to that passed by the Senate in the case OF

Fhe war once AGair.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-It ia not true
as reported this evening, that Mr.. Stanton
made no objection to Adjutant General
Thomas entering on the duties as Secretary
Of War. Ii is true, however that General
Thomas showed to Mr. Stanton his order
of appointment from the President, and to
this the General received respectful hut
not satisfactory reply.
The Senate few minutes after o'clock,
went into executive session and concluded
in seven hours. The matter of Mr.
Stanton's removal vas fully discussed, and
with much spirit.
In secret session Mr.. Edmunds offered a
resolution, for which Mr.. Wilson moved a
substitute as follows:
Whereas, The Senate has received and
considered the communication of the Pres
ident, stating that he bad removed Edwin
M. Stanton as Secretary of War and has
designated the Adiutant General Of the
army as Secretary Of War ad interim !;
therefore be it
Resolved by the Senate of the United
States, That under the constitution and
laws of the United States, the President
has no power to remove the Secretary of
War and designate any other officer to per-
form the duties of that Office.
This substitute was agreed to without
division.

THE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL.
SHERMAN.

1t is stated that the action Of the Mill
tary Committee Of the Senate in suggest
ing the return to the President Of the
nomination of Gen. Sherman to be Brevet
General, was prompted by a telegram
from the General to his brother, Senator
Sherman. Ii seems likely that the Gen
erai has placed himself in an awkward
position in regard to this appointment
The Washington correspondent Of the
New York Journal Of Commerce, writ
ing on the 18th inst, says he is at liberty
to state that the matter Of the appoint
ment is one which the President has for
some time had in contemplation, and that
some weeks since, when Gen Sherman
was in Washington, "the President men,
toned his determination TO the General,
who was far from intimating any disin-
clination TO accept it ~ 1t must be adj
mitted, adds the correspondent, that
on being advised by Mr. Johnson of his
purpose, the General intimated that per-
haps it would be better not to create the
Office Of General by brevet, but his tone
in speaking of the matter was such as be-
came a modest man, under the circum-
stances, bat not suca as to admit OF the
inference that the compliment would be
declined. "s This statement bears upon
It's face by-authority imprint Gen.
Sherman seems to have been rather
pleased with the idea than other
wise. Now how was so sudden change
wrought in his mind As soon as the
appointment was sent into the Senate,
the Radicals made the grave discovery
that the President was again at work at
"some Of his deviltry, and probably
through Senator Sherman, the General
was appealed to IA the friend of General
Grant 10 decline the nomination. This
is very probably the process through
which Gen. Sherman was induced to
make himself ridiculous in the eyes OF
the President and Of the nation The
fears of the Radical politicians in Wash
ington, who seem to regard Grant as the
only available man they can put forward
as a candidate for President, 30 operated
upon Gen. Sherman as to induce him to
consent that the Senate should reject au
honor which the President desired to con-
fer upon him simply as recognition
of his distinguished services during
the war. And it seems that General
Sherman was not ignorant of the
motives which prompted the President
in this matter 1t seems strange that
Gen Sherman should have permitted
himself to be used in regard to this ape
pointment as he has been by the Radical
politicians in Washington. If the ap
pointment had been made without his
knowledge, his personal friendship fol
Grant might have been so operated upoI
as to disincline him to accept an honor
which his Radical advisers contend Wai
| intended as a rebuke If his friend But
this excuse cannot be offered in pallia
ton of his conduct, for he seems to have
been aware before the rupture between
/ the President and Gen Grant that the
former was contemplating the comforting
this honor upon him. 1t is little to Gen
Shermans credit that he has permitted
himself to be used in this discreditable
manner by the Radicals.

applause from the white spectators, which
was checked by the chair. The Speaker
said the whites wished the blacks we'll,
and would be willing to be taxed heavily
to colonize them on the best lands the

Two black delegates replied, urging the
right of suffrage on the negro, and his ca

in order to observe tomorrow as holiday.
