e SPriEg Suingaii
Of 1868, and Mead was enabled to gain his
his great victory at Gettysburg, the capitula-
TWIL;GHT FANCIES
tion of Pemberton added Vicksburg to Get
tyaburg in the associations catmected with
the every-glorions Fourth of July. In de
tailing the appointments of Major-Generals
which bad beenr made in the regular army,
Grant once modestly said: "After the capi
tulation- of Vicksburg I was added," as If
Self unconscious of the Importance of an event
that had given the army a leader who conquer
ed a peace for the country, and makes him to
day the candidate ofgreat the Republican party
for President, an office which he would not
desire were not the people intent or giving
him this last mark of their donft,' Ace and
esteem.
One who was within the Rebel i .es during
the invasion of Pennsylvania in 1863; was
told by an arrogant Southerner, whose desert
ed home was near the spot where Grant's
army lay, that the dark and fetid waters of .
the Yazoo would destroy his men even if there
were no intrenehed enemy in front to pick
them off in detail. But the same flash of the
lightning that brought the news of Meads's
victory at Gettysburg brought, word of Pem
berton's defeat at Vicksburg. As a reward
for this . victory,. Grant, in his own modest
words, was added to the Major-Generals al
ready appointed for tho regular army, but un
like the time when he was commissioned a
Major-General of . Volunteers, no fortune now
conld doom him to inactivity. • Before he
vas ordered to, assume command at Chatta
nooga, after the unfortunate battle of Chick
amauga, President Lincoln wrote him a char
licteristic letter. It was dated July 13, 1863 5
and was as follows "My Dear General.: I
do not remember that, you and I ever met
personally. I write this now as agrateful ac.•
knowledgement for the altaw,t inestimable
service you have done -the country. I wish
to say a word further. When you first reach
ed the .vicintity of Vickshurg, I thought you
should do what you finally did—march the
troops across the neck, run the batteries with
the transports, and thus go below ; and Lucr
e! had any faith, except a general hope that
you knew better than 'I, that the Yazoo ex
pedition and the like. could succeed. When
yon got below and took Port Gibson, . Grand'
Gulf, and vicinity, I_ thought you should go
down the river, an 4 join_ Gen. Ranks: and
when you turned northward, east of the big
Black, I thought it was a mistake. I now
wish to make toe personal acknowledgement
that you were right and I was/wrong."
A victory , which could call forth such a let
ter as this from President Lincoln would pro
duce in the mind of the Executive the most
unbounded confidence inthe-eapacity of the
commander whom wasWainel. - It' is
gratifying that that - confidence was never be
trayed and never disappointed. He first
justified the President's faith, soon after he
assumed the chief - command In Tennessee, by
the brilliant victory at Lookout Mountain,
driving the Rebel Gen. Bragg from the Chat
tanooga Valley and Mission Ridge; and open
ing up the way for Sherman's Great March to
the Sea. Then the National House of Repre•
sentatives passed a neanimons rote of thanks
to Gen. Grant for his victories and ordered a
medal to be struck in his hon6r, while both
Houses of Congress concurred in the passage
of an act reviving the grade of Lieutenant-
Genentl, a rank never held by any one except
Washington, and Grant was recommended ]
for the post, it being prescribed that the Lieu
tenant-GeneraL should fume commio u l of the.
armies. President Lincoln fornially preeented
him with his commission ?larch 0., 1864, and
haviug opened up the path to the final victory
In the South-West, he at once proceeded to
pave the way to success in the South-Eest.
The Grand Army of the POtomac, smarting
under its many misfortunes, notwithstanding
the bright spot of Gettysburg upon bs ban
ners, and its imperishable record for heroism,
needed the prestige of Gen. Gitint to give it
confidence in itself. Those noble veterans
• felt that success was assured when they found
him willing to join his great fame with theirs
and to link his destinies with their fortune.
He received his commission from the hands
of the President, with but few words, and
without indicating his purpose left the Execu
tive presence to begin his advance upon
Ilieamond. The Rapidan was crossed, and
Lee fought in the terrible battle of the Wil
derness ; then he advanced to the North Anna
Hirer, Ind making a flank movement upon
Cold Harbor, fought another sanguinary bat
tasarilt upon the Rebel rorks at that
place ; and then swinging around the intreneli
ed linee'of the enemy, he crossed the' James
and invested Petersburg. Desperate engage)
ments kdlowed, end, daring the investment,
he mined - aid blew up Fort Hell, a Rebel
stronghold, With'the view of taking the town
by assault; but the operation failed, with
severe .punishment on mi side, and heavy
losses to the eneniy. This, together with the
desperate straits td Which Lee was reduced,
-emboldened him tifttikeihe offensive, and - on
the night of the 271 h of March, 1865, he'
moved - three division* of his troops - before'
Fort Steadman; and surprised and captured
the position: Before night it had been retak
en; and ittthe same< time the battle of •Hat
cher's Run Was fought, emitinninguntil eve!
ting .On the .91.1 of 'April the Rebel intrench
tnents,4lth 6,000 men, st• Big Five Forks,
Weie captured, and an attack was ordered
along the whole line, under Grant's direction;
whith ended in driving Lie - /aim his works
and the abandoement of Richmond. Lee's
retreat was cut off by , rapid movements
which Grant instituted, and on the 9th of
April;juit one week after the last great battle,
the army of North Virginia capitulated:—
Soon after the Rebel Gen. Johnson surrender
de to Gen. Sherman, on the same terms
granted by. Grant to. Lee, and the Great Civil .
War was ended.

him in after
.years. In 1845 he started s
weekly journal at • South Bend, the county
Beat of St. Joseph County, called The St. Jo
seph Valk,y Register, becoming Its sole
proprietor and editor. A writer in The In
dianapolis Journal Corrects a mistake into
which the public has fallen relative to Mr.
Colfax's connection with the printing busi
ness. Mr. Lanman, in his Dictionary of
Congress, says : "He was bred a printer."—
He never was apprenticed to the printing bus
iness, and knew nothing of the practical part
of the "art preservative of all arts" until after
he had commenced the publication of The
Register: With his ready tact and quick
perception, however, and great anxiety to
economise., for his means were yet very limi
ted, he soon mastered the art sufficiently to
"help out of the drag," but he never attsined
to any great proficiency In the business, his
editorial labors, the business of the office and
other duties soon claiming his entire atten
tion. The Register prospered, and soon be
came a source of profit to its proprietor. It
was ably edited, and was . s model of courtesy
and dignity. Every parapraph, however
small, seemed to have paased under the super
vision , cf and to reflect the rated and elevated
thoughts of itseditor. He continued his con
nection with this paper until three or four
years ago, writing a regular weekly letter for
its columns daring his first two terms in Con
gress. It was daring the early days of The
17egisk. r Mr. ColGtx, was laying the
foundation for the reputation he has since at
tained as debater. A debatiageleb was form
ed, which held regular weekly, meetings dur
ing the Winter season, andl was a rare ec
-curience indeed to • find Mr. Colfax absent
from one'eof these stated gatherings. Politics,
the temperance reform, and other subjects,
were. often As ably debated in this society as 1
kindred questions are in many deliberate bod
ies of mach greater pretensions ot the present
day. The Hon. John D. Defrees, now Super
intendent
of Government Printing, and for
many years editor and proprietor of The Tn
dianapolis Attract!, to which Mr. Colfax
was also attached as Senate Reporter for some
time after he . cornmenced the publication of
The Register, was also a participant in these
debates. They were both Whigs, both ardent
and sincere advocatesof, and believers in, the
temperance reform, and were consequently
seldom pitted against each other in these de
bates. The attaehment formed at this early
daY between thine gentlemen still continues
with unabated fervor. In igia, Mr. Colfax
was chosen as a delegate and elected as Sec
retary of the Convention which nominated
Gen. Taylor for the Presidency. In 18541 he
represented St. Joseph Cbenty in the Conven
tion which framed the present Constitution of
Indiana. In this Convention he opposed,
with all his ability,, iltelitl;niiti4,o( the clause
prohibiting freiCOlored men from settling in
the State. His opposition to this measure
was the cense of his defeat the following year
when nominated for Congress,- In opposition
to Dr. Fitch. But, with all the ability, tact,
and, shrewdness of this old political wire
worker, he only distanced his young compe
titor 200 votes, in a district which had been
strongly Democratic for years. In 18.2 he
was again a delegate to the Whig National
Convention. lie took au active part in the
campaign which followed, speaking often and
writing much. In 1`8.14, when the " - great
I deep" of Indiana Democracy was broken up,
-./a is.e sea utruser e lam iu , s grave from
Which it is hoped they mey miser be resat
' reeled, he was renominated and elected to
Congress, and was consequently more active •
than ever bek:re. Ells experience as a debut
er, and familiarity with State and National
polities, rendered him an overmatch for his
opponents, whom he:was always anxious to
meet in an open and fait discus:Am before the
people, where he was always certain of a
victory. In 185 C he was aesin nominated for
Congrcw, and re-elected by a handsome ma
jority. Ills entrance into Congress was in
the midst of the great struggle over the Le
compton swindle. A writer says of his mai
den speech in the House : "His first speech
in Congress went forth to repel the tide of ter
ror which was sweeping over struggling Kan
ass, and clearly showed Am even then he was
one of the best debaters in the Lower House."
Over 500,000 copies of this speech were print
ed and circulated—a compliment perhaps
never before received by any 'member of Con
gress. He was first chosen Speaker of the
XXXVIIIth congress by a. vote of 101 to 81.
He has been thrice elected to the same posi
tion, each time by an increased majority. He
was appointed Chairman of this Committee
on Postso l loci anti Post-Hoads on the organ
ization ot the I C I V I TVIIth Congress, and did
Leech to extend mail facilities throughout the
West. He was one of the first advocates,
and is still one Of the warmest friends of the
Pacific Railroad. Indeed, he takes a warm.
interest in any movement.looking to the de
velopment of the boundless resources of the
.great West. It was, doubtless, the interest he

dueed him to take his celebrated trip "Across
the Continent." was a perilous one,
but his welcome at "the other end of the
line' was so spontaneous, truly genuine, and
heartfelt that it more than repaid him for all
the dangers and hardships he passed through.
This-trip prepared him' for 'one of the most
entertaining- . lectures - ever delivered in this
country. Itlaas been listened to with. wrapt
attention by the people of almost every city
in the North. Pecuniarily, however, IL has
profited him but little, for with that liberality
which has ever been a marked trait in his
character, the entire proceeds of a lecture
have as often been donated to Some charitable

Mr. Lincoln are well known. They inhered .
hand in hand as brothers in the cause of the
Union, holding frequent and protracted into,
views on all subjects looking to dm overthrow
of the Rebellion, for there Were no divisions
between the executive and legislative branches

, During the darkest. hours of that, bloody
drama which shall ever remain .a reproach

they were ever cheerful and hopeful. Confi

preservation of the Union, and placing a
