GRANT AND SHERMAN.

The Washington Chronicle, the ready
defender of every raseality and every
public plunderer, appears in a late arti-
Gle, partially reported by telegraph. to
be acluated With a spite against General
Sherman, aud seeks to cast some dirty
slur upon him. Happy Sherman. There
could not be stronger testimonial
offered for his honesty and capability,
than that a thieves attorney like the
Washington Chronicle should assail him.
There is something, however, beyond
the mere snarl of the vicious and envious
feeling that always prompts the depraved
aud fallen to hate their bstters, there is
probably whisper from the White
House that the uncompromising integri-
ty and simple Republican habits of sher'
man, showed in most unfsvorable con-
trssts the tastes and tone of the present
incumbent of the Executive Mansion
Grant is probably glad TO avoid the un'
pleasant comparison, and it may be, has
permitted sufficient o. that feeling to ap'
pear to induce dirty lackey-like Harlan
to Insult General Sherman.
