General Sheridan, commsndant Army of

Offices from here to Chicago. They are
even dismantling the arsenal, and all the
munitions gathered here during the war
are to be sold at public auction. Soon q
blue uniform will be rarity in st. Louis,
and outwardly we are now civil city. 9.l
Major General Schofeld is still in town,
with his chief Of staff, Colonel Wherry.
The General leaves here, tomorrow morn
ing for Leavenworth to assume command
Of the Department Of Missouri. He will
make this his headquarters next fall, occu-
plying the Sherman mansion. A grand
banquet was given him last Saturday eve
ming by a delegation of prominent citizens
at the Southern Hotel. His personal staff,
the staff officers Of General Phil. Sheridan,
the city officials, and members of the press,
made up the company. Speeches were
made by our new Mayor, Nathaniel Cole,
General Custer, and others. General Soho

manner. Said he, in conclusion, g Peace
reigns over two-thirds Of this great coun-
try, and before another. year rolls round
