Thursday he spoke warmly of his per.
soual admiration for General Sheridan,
and said lie would make good Presi-
dent. At a banquet given tbs President
in this city by the Loyal Legion, his
praises OF Sheridan were unstinted. In
this connection the Herald, Of this city,
puts Sheridan at its masthead as the
candidate for President, and
argues that Blaine, Logan, Arthur or
Grant cannot win for obvious reasons, so
little Phil is having boom of his own

tees of Plymouth Congregational Church

tures. Judging from the attendance the
Trustees will lose money, as Beecher is
not popular on this coast. His former
utterances on the Chinese question have
not been forgotten, aud his expressed
opinions on the same subject since his
arrival this time do not tend to increase
his popularity. His lecture this even
ing, "New Professions, was very slim
