THE SHERMAN LETTERS.
Great Curiosity in Army Cir,les to Know

WASHINGTON, August lS.-The move.
ment to induce General Sherman to
consent to the publication OF the two
letters written by him to General Han
cock in the winter OF 1876, just preced-
ing the Electoral Commission proceed
ings, have not been abandoned. Quite
a number OF army officers, some OF
whom would probably rejoice to see the
SSieneral of the Armv placed in tight
place for once, are doing what they can
to have the letters made public, but
thus far General Sherman has peremp-
torly declined to authorize or even
consent to their publication. These
letters have been more talked about in
army circles than the public are proba.
bly, aware. The curiosity among army
officers, some of them high in rank, to
know the exact sentiments expressed
by General Sherman during the political
crisis OF 1867 is exceedingly great, and
now and then the opinion is expressed
that the letters must contain something
OF compromising character, or other.

pose tenaciously his objection to their
being given to the public to be read in

particulars: 1t went little further
