General shermnn's Views on the
Parade ana the sepuIchre site.
New York, July 30.-The Tribune
this morning published an interview
with General Sherman in which he
says; "The parade will be the grand
est military spectacle the city ever
saw. General Hancock is magniil-
Gently fitted to organize il and is hard
at work. He will leave nothing I'M
done and it was good thing to do. to
place all these thing in his hands,"
General Sherman gave this eXplana-
ton of why he thought New York
had been given the preference over
Washington as the place of burial
"rhe Grant family will continue TO
live in New York. The boys can't go
to Washington to live. What is there
TO be found there for themY They
don't expect and can't expect to be
congressman or senators. They could
not accept clerkships and what else is
there in Washington If General
Grants remains were buried there
they would seldom or never
see his grave. The mother will
remain with the boys. She could not
go to live in Washington alone. Buck

family, and that when the country
comes to know OF it the selection will
be honored as reasonable. IL Is GER
tain that General Grant regarded
Washington us no fit place for young
men, for he has often talked about IL,
and my opinion is the same. Why,
the army officers who have been sta
toned in Washington long have never
amounted TO anything. The men
who have come up high have made
their mark on the frontier among the
Indians or oil far oil stations. The
Washington men become dstin-
guIshed rs staff officers. Mcclellan is
about the only exception, and his case
is so slight an exception as to barely
affect the rule. Taylor, aud Jackson,
and those men came to the top from
Indian and boruer-iighting.

MR. MoRRIsoN'S NOMINATION.

The nomination of Mr.. MORRISON, az
the Democratic candidate for the sena-
torship from Illinois, is both significant
and suggestive. 1t means that the
northwestern Democracy is anti-protec-
ton, anti-tarifl, anti-monopolistic and
aggressive in its policy. 1t signifies that
the war against indirect taxation has
not to be resumed, because it
has not been abandoned, and
that a distinctive issue has to be made
on this tariff question. The time has
come when the same war has to be
waged that was attempted to be set on
foot when the bill introduced by MR..
MORRISON was defeated in the house by
the great volume of Republican mem
bers assisted by some forty Democrats
who made themselves notorious by be-
ing led by MR.. RANDALL and also by
their successful opposition to the settled
policy of the party to which they be-
longed.
Another very significant feature in
the nomination by the causus is the
fact itself. 1t is not very probable that
a great body, such as that of the Demo
cratic membership of tho Illinois legis.
lature, would act unadvisably in mat.
ter where 50 much is at stake. What
is the stake? Simply the control of the
United States senate, which
very honorable body controls
the confirmation Of presidential uomi.
nations and is pretty nearly equally di.
vided. 1t appers to the HERALD that
Mr.. CLEVELAND, or his friends who
knew him well, would have been con.
suited in so important a matter and
doubtless he has been. If such be the
case, the RANDALL element OF tho De
mocracy may feel somewhat discour
aged, and that CLEVELAND's ideas hay,
not been considered, Is conclusion
very far from what would be reached
by the HERALD's mode of reasoning.
AS to the suggestivensss of the nomi
nation, 1t can only be said that if Mon
RIsoS should be elected, which he viii
be, IL is better for those who have dis
scented from the bulk of the Democrat
party in their views on this tariff ques
ton quickly to initiate Republican tao
tics and submit to caucus domination.
The issue is live one and will nc
down. Wheel into ranks and try tn
adoption of policy which has Away
been advocated by the party, and ,whe
successfully operated, ever with grol
good to the country,

ment of the banks of the Mississippi

MIR. HUNT opposed the amendment

the appropriation was intended mainly
for the protection OF individual prop

In engaging in the Egyptian war, the
the English government, in the par
lance of the Texas cowboy, bit off more
than it could chew. Ell MAHDI has
whipped the British army in Egypt,
and this is the plain fact. Nobody re-
grets it, for the English government en-
gagged in a war which did not come
within its province, and while the civ
ilized world will regret the English
troops were defeated and massacred, it
will not conceal its qualification that the
British lion has been overcome in a
country in which it had no interests
further than to make it subject to itself,
1t will not be regretted if the British are
driven out of Egypt.
