GENERAL PHIL. SHERIDAN.—GeneraI Sheridan being the uhero of the hour," the 'following description of him, given some time since in one of Mr. B. F. Taylor,s letters from Washington, will be interesting at this time : 6 t There is no waste timber about Sheridan not much of him, physically, but snugly put together. A square fnee, a warm black eye, pleasant smile, a reach of under jaw, show ing that 'when he will, he will, you may de ,pand.on't ;' black hair trimmed round like a - garden border; no Hyperion curl about hin any more than there was about Cromwell' , troopers, and altogether impressing you with the truth that there is just about as much en - erergy packed away in about the smallest 'space you ever saw in your life. Men rang ing down from medium size to little, with 'excepthinS enough to prove the rule, seem to carry the day among the heroes. Moses was something of a general, but no Falstaff; Alexander the Great and Petcr the Great were little; Cromwell was no giant, and as for Napoleon—why he was but the 'Little Corporal Sheridan is a capital executive officer; perhaps he would be hardly equal to planning a great campaign, but Jehul— wouldn't he drive it I With a good piece of his head behind his oars, and hardly rever ence enough for a Mandarin, he is not afraid of: the face of clay. As Chief of Cavalry, he is indeed chief among ten thousand. Pleasant voiced, mild, mannered, not given to long yarns, you would hardly suspect he is a thunderbolt in a charge, and an emphatic human syllable all over.
