sherman the Rising star.

We learn from New England that the
SHERMAN star is rising and already shining
brightly in the East. This is new and
significant sign in favor of Ohio's favorte
son-wc mean the favorito son Of Ohio on
the Republican side.
SHERMAN is gaining rapidly, not only on
account Of his own strength, but from the
weakness OF GRANT consequent upon the
fears of the Republican leaders that the
people will not accept any man for third
term.
The new veto, whatever its fate may be,
will have n tendency to strengthen SHER-
MAN. 1t imparts now consequence to the
Administration Courage gives dignity.
HAYEs's fight may be injudicious, and even
desperate; but II Is indisputablv brave.
The effect Is TO elevate in party point Of
Wow the man In whom the Administration
Is personifcd, and that is JOHN SHERMAN.
We are in favor OF the nomination Of JOIN
SHERMAN as the Republican candidate, and
we unhesitatingly offer to publish gratui-
tously original letters from Mr.. EvARTs,
Mr.. KEY, Mr.. DEvENs and other members of
the Cabinet. ne also from Mr.. HAYES. Sena-
tor CoNKLINo. Senator BLAINE, Senator
EDMUNDs, and other leading Republicans in

The Question of the Day.

Tho Democratic party in Congress delib-
cratcly, and, rs we think, wisely and patri
otically, raised the issue OF the presence OF
the army at elections. Upon this Issue they
refused in February last TO pass the Army
Appropriation bill. This rendered necessary
the calling OF an extra session. On this
issue mainly the debates and the votes of
this extra session have turned.
Congress has now passed two acts upon
this subject, one embodying in the Army
Appropriation bill prohibition OF military
Interference in elections; the other, enacted
after the veto OF the first, putting that pro-
hibition alone and uncncumbercd in bill by
itself
This second bill is now vetoed, and the
question is what the Democratic party in
Congress will do next Some tell us that
they will pass the Appropriation bills as
Mr.. HAYES commands without any cundi-
tions whatever others say that they will
simply extend the present appropriations
for few months, and then adjourn and 20
home.
II the Democracy in Congress pursue
either OF these courses. they will prove
themselves towards, and they will go homo
covered with ridiculc. and leaving their
party TO n fate which may be imagined.
Why raise such great issue of principle,
why engage in such conflict with the Ex-
ecutivc, II the only result is to turn tail on
the first blow from him, to yield the whole
controversy and run away from the field OF
contests
The Republicans at least have courage.
Why, even this weak HAYES shows himself
car able Of putting it into a veto. Docs the
Democracy possess nothing Of this manly
quality? We shall not believe 1t until the
fact Is demonstrated. One thing. however,
is certain A party destitute alike OF back
bone and Of political sense can never elect n
President OF the United States.

An Evidence OF Sense on the Part OF
Gen. Grant.

We printed, yesterday, from tho Herald,
an account OF an interview with Mr.. GEORGE
w. CHrLDs OF Philadelphia on the subject Of
Gen. GRANTS proposed third election. Ac-
cording to this report, Mr. CHILDs said that
neither himself, Mr.. FISH, Mr.. BoR1E, nor
Mr.. DREXEL has ever been consulted by Gen.
GRANT rs to whether he should consent to
the use OF his name os q candidate.
We must say that whatever may be said
against Gen. GRANT-and much may be
justly said-it is greatly to his credit that
he keeps his own counsel when in the COM
pany of nincompoops and snobs like BoRIE
and CH1LDs.
This silly fellow CHILDs goes on TO say
that he is sure that the General prefers not
TO be n candidate, and that II he consents TO
accept II will be because the Republican
party demands It,"
If CHILDs really believes this he is big
ger fool than we ever set him down for.
GRANT is as ambitious as AARON BURR. lie
cares more for denomination than for any
thing else; or at least there is only one
thing he would prefer to being President,
and that Is 10 be King
CHILDs does not understand; and GRANT
docs not think it necessary he should.

The True Sentiment.

No man will ever be elected President of
the United States who has not always been
faithful to the Union. No man will be
elected against whom any imputation of
wavering can be laid, or even the remotest
suspicion Of disloyalty justified Party
lines and personal rivalrles disappear before
this demand. This the people exact rs n
first and indispensable condition. Every
candidate who seeks their support for that
great Office must be spotless in this regard
After the next census, the political power
Of the country will pass into the hands Of
the great and growing West. In that region
this feeling is naturally intense since the
soldiers Of the West sealed their convic-
tons with their life's blood by hundreds Of
thousands The generation passing OF have
educated their children in this faith, and if
nj the outset Of the civil war or during it
there We're Western men whose hearts did
not warm 10 the national cause or who, like
Mr.. HENDRICKS, looked forward to the pos
sibility Of n dismembered Union and
Western Confederation, there are mono now
who dare give utterance to such wild
thoughts.
A year ago, ms the Fourth Of July was ap-
preaching, a paper in this State solicited
sentiments from distinguished men in both
parties appropriate to the return Of that
national festival Among many was one
which deserves TO be written in letters Of
gold, and TO be cherished at every hrcside
in the land, as the very essence of patriotism:
