candidate. In the first place. his obligations
towards General Grant will keep him in the
background for some time to come. General
Grant is understood by those who are in the
way of seeing him intimately to cherish a
deep desire for a reelection. This feeling
will naturally grow stronger as the decisive
year of 1872 approaches, and the influences
which the President can always bring to bear
will doubtless be exerted to secure for him
the nomination of the Republican National
Convention. AS long as General Grant is
candidate, General Sherman cannot and will
not enter the feld and when it is determined
that the Republicans will not have Grant, it
will be too late for Sherman to fish for their
nomination; indeed, his relation to Grant
would make it difficult for him to accept a
nomination which Grant had failed to secure
though it should be unanimously rendered to
him.
Besides, it is not now probable that in 1872
either party will adopt military candidate.
The experience of the Republicans with
Grant has been such as to give them q dis
trust of shoulder-straps in civil Office; and
even if he should now forsake his follies and
make a sensible and successful administra-
ton, he can hardly recover, either for himself
or for other statesmen of military education,
the confidence he has forfeited. And as for
the Democrats, while there is nothing in
General Sherman's antecedents or in his poll
IlCdl COuVlCUlOnS 10 UDelr taxing MIN
up, it is almost certain that they will be less
| inclined to run military candidate in 1872
| than they have ever been before.
For these reasons, we imagine that the
nomination of General Sherman at Louisville
will not be adopted by either of the great
| parties, but that it will remain without any
| substantial consequences. There is also an
other consideration which will be in the way
| of his becoming President. When he came
to Washington last spring he was prevailed
| upon to accept present of a hundred and
two thousand dollars, raised, as we were told
at the time, at General Grants special request
from various citizens of New York and New
England. Two-thirds of this large sum was
devoted to paying General Grant a greatly
| advanced price for q house which Mr.. A Il.
Corbin had procured to be presented to him
three years before. The givers of these rich
| presents were most of them patriotic men,
| who desired to testify their appreciation of
| General Grants and General Sherman's SER
vices to the country, and that was all right,
| But General Grant has found in these dona-
tions q reason for appointing some of the
least delicate and deserving of the donors to
high office; and with this proceeding the
country is Justly dissatisfied. Though it is
not believed that General Sherman has been
actively party to such appointments, yet the
fact that he has been mixed up in the bust
ness at all will always stand in the way of his
attaining the Presidency, even if apart from
this unfortunate complication there were a
widespread disposition to nominate and
elect him. ..-.- ---.

Reason-the state of the atmosphere was

Floral Ercitement.-The excitement at
tending the appearance of the velocipede
had scarce died away, when the flower man
made his appearance with many rare and
beautiful plants, various enough in kind
and color, to please the taste of the most
fastidious. Ladies were over eager to pur-
chase. Mother left the baby crying to buy
posy; Mary Elizabeth left the biscuits
half made, and with remnants of dough
still clinging to her fair and shapely hands,
went forth to view and purchase. One lady
was so elated and so much overcome, that
upon being sent to purchase white or pink
tea rose, asked the polite salesman for a
rose the color of tea. Being nearly sold
out, he packed up the remainder Of his
goods and left, thinking, no doubt, the
would-be purchaser quite as green as

The pretended strike at the coal mines
is virtually at an end. The temporary sus-
pension, under the auspices of the so-called
Miners Association, accomplished nothing,
except to demonstrate anew that all such
artificial means for enhancing prices in
variably fail, and leave the strikers worse
off than they were before. Some are now
trying to deter the miners from work by
threats, but this will not long avail.
Wendell Philips, in speech in Boston
