GEN. SHERIDAN.

Among the flood of words that come
to-day from every quarter, ROBBED in
eulogy, wrapped in endearments or
shrouded in sympathy, for the PROSTATE
chieftain, Sheridan's tribute to the lad
that carried the musket stands out in
bold relief Said he at reunion of vet
Grams in the west not long since:
81 went through all the grades they
had in the volunteer service, and then
commenced and went through all the
grades in the regular service, and the
date of every commission / have is the
date of battle. Now i want to say to
you, comrades, that am indebted to the
private in the ranks for all this credit
that has come TO me. He was the man
who did the fighting, and the man who
carried the musket is the greatest hero
of the war in my opinion.
Here is an instance of the true hero,
not only skilled in the mastery evolu-
ton of troops in battle, but unselfish to
share with them in the honors of victory
or suffer for them the odium of de-
feat.
Gen. Sheridan was bred to arms.
From the martial cradle of the American
soldier at West Point he was detailed to
the frontier, and met the hostile savage
ON the plains in the cunning warfare OF
the bush and defile. His soldierly qualifica-
tions attracted the attention of his super
ior officers in the west and he earned rap
Oily the stars of brigadier general, until,
by Gen Grants orders in 1864, he was
transferred to the command of the cav
airy of the Army of the Potomac in the
east. From this time to the close of the
war, he was a most potent cause OF the
humiliation of the flower of the Confed-
crate Army in Virginia. A skillful COM
mandant, remorseless rider, a thunder
bolt in the attack, he led and the men
with the musket, the carabine and the
rapier followed him too, to the dawn OF
peace at Appomatox.
Gen. Sheridan's history is too well
known to need description. At fifty
seven, loaded with honors, he awaits
calmly the approach of death No
greater honors could be bestowed on
man than those which come to that
great character in military history, who
with pride points to his insignia of Fame
and says: 'tThe boys with the muskets
gave those to me. -
