Bringing General sherman 20 the Sur

! The Washington Chronicle of Friday
I last Contained leader specially eulOgistic Of
the character and services Of General Vim. 4.
! sherman. which excites much attention. The
I memorable Johnston sherman compact Of
I April, l.dl, Is commented on As an ncf OF n B.
] eTal ana enlightened stateGmanship which
I was drawn in accordance with the deliberate
I lustruetton OF Ny. Lincoln, but stupidity and

I his successor IN oliice. The article goes on 20
I state that General sherman has never since
/ the war been heard 70 utter one unl<ind or IL
| j Oeral sentiment toward those OF his fellow
| citizens who had been overcome IN arms, and
] mas never hesitsted 70 express bis ardent de-
] sire Tor a general amnesty. The article goes
! on 60 praise General Sherman for his ability
and facility in public speaking, and, while Il
I does not condemn Grant, IL comments Gen.
! ersl sherman for all those qualities IN which
] Grant j. notab y deficient. There has been
| considerable talk OF late among Sherman's
/ friends Of bringing him forward as a Presi-
! dental candid ate for Is76, and it would seem
from this elaborate article that 70 is heir pro-
graInms 70 run him as the peoples candidate
| on the basis OF amnesty reconciliation and
peace, as opposed 20 the Grant idea OF mill

] hatred. The ChrOniclc is not regarded here A.

The failure OF the New York Re-

dorsement which it gave in the plat

A special meeting of the delegates to
