WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, February 27-The
headquarters Of the army we're again to
day visited by a numbsr OF those who
were anxious to see the President elect,
but the presence OF c. an. Sherman, who
was there st $3.50 this marniug, and has
remained the entire day in consul.
tatiOn with Grant, has precluded the
possibility Of any lengthy interview by
others, snd as 3 general thing they were
very brief, being confined mainly to
shaking hands and expressing congratu-
%lations, the majority of visitors being
strangers vi5iting Washington. Several
Senators and Representatives were
among them, including Meesrs Merrill
and Howard, and Representatives
Bitter, and Eggleston OF Olic, who also
had brief interviews with Grant. Many
Of the visitors also took occasion to pay
thsir respects to Gen. sherman.
the long interview between these two
distinguished officers has reference to the
conduct Of sfflirs connected with the
office Of Generst-in-Chief
Grant has not mentioned at what ex-
act day the resignation OF his present po-
sitioa will be rendered.
The probability is that within the few
days intervening between now and the
4.h OF March there will be an hour set
apart for public receptions.
The visit of B. Butler is remarked as
being among the interesting features OF
