GEN. GRANT ON AMERICAN S01
. DIEUS ANP THE IfREipENCY.
... - ; ' -
. In the New'srfe,'' Hei:ald,ot Satur
day last, is & letter' from its ;staff corres-
haent," Jotitt llneTTTawKtid is
accompanying ex-President (rantupo,1
his trip around the world, 'fhe letter
dated Tientsin, China, June 15, con
tains several points of interest, and to
some of these public attention may
well be drawn. The correspondent re
ports an interview between Gen. Grant
snd Li-Hung Chang, Vcerdy of the
provinceS)f Tientsin, whomvie repre-
sents as "now the forenost statesman
ii CHina." With tips much.y way'bf
explanation we quote from the letter
as follows: ? I cfc f
The Viceroy asked General Grant
whether at the close of the : war any
difficulty was experienced iii sending
the soldiers back to civil lifei
Gen. Grant replied that, one the con
trary, the men who had been in the
army reverted to their old hdmes and
occupations and became the ibest por
tions of society. He did not think it a
reflection upon those who did not go
into the war to say that no classes were
'more loyal, industrious and! peaceful
than those who had been in the, war.
The Viceroy asked if this was true of
the South as well as the North.- .ill:
General Grant: Of the South as well
a the North. The soldiers in the South
ern army have shown themselves by all
odds the best part of the Southern pop
ulation. Our armies were not mercen
ariesnot on either side. Mercenary
armies give trouble. No peppl are more
peaceable; in civil, life than those who
nave seen war. They know ( what
war is. t . . ' ?;; ;
The above ought to be forced upon
the attention of the stalwarts, jmd Derm
ocrats stumpers in the North Should al
ways carry it in their pockts, ready
for reference. Since Gen. Grant has
had this much to say in favqr of the
despised "Confederate Brigadiers," what
one of his followers shall have more to
say against them ? That a mahjtiastoeen
a Confederate soldier is regarded by the
Republican party as a stain which can
only be wiped out by his "penfing him
self" and joining them ; Gen. Grant has
made the title a badge of honour. "The
soldiers in the Southern army," says he,
fahave shown themselves by al odds the
best part of the Southern population.
No people arc more peaceable fin civil
life than those who have seen war."
This testimony from 5th ex-President
is invaluable; it is worth af million
editorials and a million speeches from
editors and "statesmen" whd, during
the war served their country, as the
Augusta Chronicle and Constitutional
ist said a few days agoxftheiditorfif
Harper's Weekly, "with a chronic diar
rhoea." Regarding the possibility of a third
term for Gen. Grant, we copy j the fol
lowing notable paragraphs f roijn the in
terview: 1
The Viceroy said with a smile that he
had received-much pleasure from the
kind words spoken by the General about
China, and Jie. hoped they would notrbe
f orgotteri fwherf the peneralf becine
President agaii Of course the General
would beebma-President again and the
Viceroy hoped this would be, Jmd that
when President the General wbuhf re
member him and write to him.?
Gen. Grant: Your Excellency is very
kind, but there could be no wLh more
distasteful to me than what youexpress.
I have held the office of President as
long as it has ever been heldby any
man. There are others whb bHve risen
to great distinction at home find Who
have earned the honor who are5 worthy,
and to them it belongs, not to me. I
have no claims to the office, sit is a
placedistastef ul to me, a place jof hard-
snip and responsibilities. VVnen 1 was
a younger man these hardships were
severe and never agreeable. They would
' be worse now. s f I H
The Viceroy : But you are, a young
man and your pperience would be pf
Gen. Grant: No man who! knows
what the Presidency imposes would
care to see a friend in the office;; I have
had my share of it have hajd all the
honors that can be or should pe given
to any citizen, and there are mjany able
and distinguished men wtyd have earned
the office. T6 one of them it should 'be'
given. I
The Viceroy, smiling, said that the
General showed himself to. beiiwhat he
always heard a.modest manHand that
he still hoped, for the good relations be-
t ween China -and ,Ajxierica. aldne, that
he would be again President. The
Viceroy said he had read in someChin
ese papers translations from the Airier!
ican papers about the great reception
that was awaiting the General in Cali
fornia, an8Upposed he would time his
arrival sasto meet it- 1 - f
