b, General Sherman declares for Hayes.
General w. Il. Sherman has written
the following interesting letter to Pri-
vate Dalzell, member OF the Ohio Leg
islature:
e ST. LOUIS. No., February 2, 1876.
DEAR SIR: Your kind letter is lust
received, and, though thought every
body knew my general opinions on
ppoints of your inquiry, can not hes
itate TO answer you in such way as
TO admit OF no misconstructiOn. l
never have been, am not now, and
never will be, a candidate for the high
office of President, before any Con-
xcntioni OF the people.
shall always prefer to see that Of
tice filed by one of the millions who,
in the civil war, stood by the Union

OF General Hayes, now Governor of
Ohio, whom we know as a fine officer
and gentleman in every sense. | do
not. ot.however, wish to be misunder-
stood as presuming to advise anybody
in his choice of the man.
MY Wiie anu Ianlly are strong Gath
elics. but L am not. That, however,
is nobody's business. l believe in the
common schools, aud don't stop over
the little matters that seem to be ex-
aggerated by the press in some quar-
ters. However. these schools are ex-
tiavagant, and indulge in costly build
iDgs aud expensive teachers, SO as to
DC heavy burden on the tax payers.
This tendency ought to be checked,
which may easily be done without
making il a political question. Self
interest will regulate this and make
schools free to all. an capable of i'm
parting the rudiments of a good En-
glish education.
i-z isurs truly, w. T. SHERMAN.
Now, let's hear from brother
Charles.

Wallace ordered his Sergeant-at- Arms

claim it to be their privilege. 1t would

would be no quarreling as to these USE

This is the only city of any magnituds
that continues this system which in
only intended for large villages. AS an
evidence of the high lone in which some
OF these magnificent structures are re-

branch was proverbial for The number Of

In early times, with our city's popu-

promotion OF individual enterprise.
