The History OF tho Wnr.

We print this morning two communications
from correspondents worthy Of attention dis
cussing the points which have been brought
into controversy by General Sherman's
memoirs. One Of these gentlemen,
representing the famous Fourteenth Army
corps, defends with great elrnestness
ard ability the reputation Of that corps
from the distinguished writer's imputa-
ton of slowness. In his memoirs" the
Commander Of the Army speaks OF the Four
tenth corps as partaking in a large degree Of
the characteristics Of its commander, the illus
trious General Thomas. 1t was the fate OF
General Thomas to be regarded both by
Grant and Sherman as singularly slow in
action and difficult TO move, and this charac-
teristic on his part led at one time TO the issue
OF an order to General Logan to relieve him
of the command of his army in Tennessee
disgrace which was only avoided by the fact
of his winning great battle while Logan was
on the way to supersede him. The estimate
in which General Thomas is held by his
countrymen is far higher than that placed
upon him by either General Grant or General
Sherman. BY this we mean that the uniform
success which attended his battles and the
sterling self-sacrifcing sentiment which ami
mated his private career have given o lustre
70 his fame that even Grant or Sherman need
not despise. It is natural, therefore, that an
officer Of his corps should promptly defend it
from the by no means harsh criticism of
General Sherman. We agree with our CORE
spondent in taking exception TO the remark
Of Mr.. Blair in his letter tho other day, that
General Shermans trouble was "constitu-
tional timidity" We find nothing to justify
this criticism in any Of General Sherman !
acts. The whole tone Of the mans mind is
in the other direction and he shows his inn
pulsiveness in the character of his writings.
Another correspondent gives rs some in
teresting information in reference TO who
planned the march to the sea. Upon tbis
point there is q question which has yet been
undecided. Here there is o straight issue Of
Badeau, the accomplished and trusted biogra-
pher Of President Grant, and the Hon.
Charles A. Dana, at one time Assistant Sec
rotary Of War, and member Of General
Grants military family who distinctly assert
that the plan of the march to the sea was the
conception of General Grant. We are also
reminded Of speech made by General Sher-
man in Cincinnati. in 1865 within two or

FREEhAsoNs AND HOME RULERS.
Catholic members of Parliament have made
q demonstration against the Freemasons be-
cause the Viceroy Of Ireland happens to be
Grand Master Of the Order We understand
that Cardinal Cullen is about to issue an adj
dress announcing the organization as IAN
accused thing" The elevation of the Prince
of Wales to the head Of the Order in England
in place Of the Marquis of Rpon, who re-
signed that station to go into the Catholic
Church, has given Masonry an impulse in
Great Britain which will, no doubt, be Of
great benefit

chief battle field of our political contests. This
yesr, and IN all years hereafter, Pennsylvania
will be left TO take its chances with the other
November States, and there will be grand
concentration of strength in the pre-
liminary fight in Ohio. If the republi-
cans should recover Ohio in October
they will easily carry at least half
dozen other States now considered as
doubtful. But if they lose Ohio in October
any State which they lost last year. Both
parties are certain to pour oil their forces
into Ohio in October. and the result of the
contest will virtually decide the next Presi-
dental election. great democratic victory
in Ohio in October this year would insure
corresponding victories in most OF the
States which hold elections in No
vember, and paralyze the hopes Of the
republican party. Now that Ohio has be-
come the pivotal State the tariff question will
dwindle into nsignifcance in national poll
tics. The average public sentiment Of agri-
cultural Ohio is rather adverse to high duties,
but not in very pronounced degree. Sena-
has always kept prudently shy of the tariff
question, and the democratic party Of that
State will prefer what is called revenue
reform" to unequivocal 'free trade" There
is, accordingly no likelihood that free trade
will be predominant issue in the next Presi-
Dental election
Ohio succeeds Pennsylvania as the most
influential State iN future elections, and the
chances in Ohio this year are unfavorable to
the republicans. Had business revived this
spring as everybody hoped, the republicans
might have had equal chance But the
continued stagnation is certain to act against
the party in power A great democratic
victory in Ohio will turn most Of the Novem-
Der elections against the republican party
and in that case it will seem matter of small
moment who is the republican candidate for
the Presidency.

three months after the close OF the war, In
which he said himself that it was in CinciD
natl, when in company with General Grant.
they went over the maps together and agreed
upon the plans which eliminated In the de-
struction of the Confederaoy; but careful
review OF this speech does not justify us in
supposing that during that consultation there
was either hint or suggestion from General
Grant in reference to the march to the
sea. Unless the evidence submitted by
General Sherman is garbled or forged,
which, Of course, is an impossible contin-
gency, it clearly shows that while the mind
of Sherman was drifting toward the march to
the sea General Grant was constantly op-
pressed by the presence Of Hood in Georgia
He did not believe Thomas force was able ia
combat him, and was reluctant to permit
General Sherman to make his proposed
march, leaving Hood unchallenged and in
strong military array.
These letters from our correspondent only
illustrate the great value of this work OF Gem
eral Sherman. 1t is better that these prob
lens should be decided now, that the credit OF
the great events of the war may be awarded to
those upon whom the honor properly belongs;
that the many controversies and heartburn
ings and dissensions should be considered
during the lives of the actors and not TO
manded to posterity. General Sherman has
certainly shown courage in his book, and wa
honor him for having invited a discussion
the result Of which can but be to benefit his
torical truth.

Even the bulletins Of commander-in-chief
from the field Of battle could not be more in
teresting than the successive announcements
Boyton's progress in his trip across
the British Channel. Starting from Cape
Grisnez at three o clock in the morning the
English coast was in view from the steamer
which accompanied him at noon. At two
o'clock in the afternoon he was eight miles
he was within three miles Of that place.
The latest news indicates that he will effect
landing, though he was delayed by adverse
currents.
