Gen. sherman Repu dtates the New
OrleaMs speech.
To the Editor of the N. Y. Tribune.


To the Editor of the ". r. Tribune.
Sir-On Saturday evening, April %,
1871, the Union League Club of New Or
leans, OF which Governor H. O. Yarmouth
is president and myself secretary aud treas
urer, gave General w. T. Sherman a re-
ception coupled with a complimentary
dinner. About one hundred persons were
present, some Of whom were coored men,
| was not present at the reception given to
the general by the American Union Club,
SO that am not able to speak of what he
may have said on that occasion but
made a careful report of what he did say
on the occasion of the reception given by
the club to which belong, and have my
original notes now with me- Gen. Sher-
man said:
Mr. President-I am not much of speaker !;
my forte is action, not speech making. do
not wish my remarks this evening to be re-
ported in the newspapers, for ! see that what
/ said on the occasion of another reception
extended to me since my arrival has been en-
tirely misrepresented, and | am credited with
words did not utter at all. / therefore hope
there are no reporters here to serve this pleas
ant inter view as they served the other to which
have alluded.
"My duty as the commander of the army of
the country keeps me employed in military
matters, and by that employm ment may be
enabled to assist the nation in its civil and po-
litical interests, but do not wish to be con.
sidered politician. Istrive az well as can
to do what my official duty compes, and in
doing that find myself amply employed.
do not seek any civil position whatever, and
do not wish to be suspected of doing so.
Indeed, should positively decline any offer of
civil OF political position. l mean 10 devote
my whole time in the future to the study of
the military art not with aview to destroying,
but as means of promoting the good of ali,
even the lowest classes of our citizens"
Since the Democratic papers all over the
country have said so much about these New
Orleans receptions to Gen Sherman, and given
place In their columns to words W hich leo far
as the short speech at the Union League Club
Is concerned) he never uttered, have thought
it my duty to give you the unvarnisbed truth
touching the affair.
Respectfully,
THOMAS W. CoNwAY.

What is the Duty Of Il Pt,ceman s--As
We were about going to press. a member Of the
police force stepped into our office, armed with
baton, in ull form, bearing a lengthy list
of citiz ms of the place, iuquiring the where's
abouts of an old employee of our paper-in
short, looking for him to register. He (the
one looked for) was Democrat.
What we want to know is this are police-
men paid out of the city treasury to attend to
their legitimate duties, or are they paid to
dodge around the streets bunting up Demo
cratic votes between now and the closing of
the registration books?
Ours is bad place to look for Democrats;
there are none here that we know of, and
there are not likely to be any. The Enquirer
office is the place where policemen would be
more successful in their search.

its leading space to comments on letter

We would thank the Enquirer to fur

promise our aid to bring the offenders to
