We arc coming, Sc Reminiscences and Opinions of the Gen eral, by a Graduate of IVest Point, late a Major General, United States Volunteers, and now a ,Colonel and Brevet Major General in the Regular Army. I never shall forget one night that I spent with Gen. Grant. It was in the midst of the war, the battle of Chatta nooga had been fought, the siege of Knoxville had been raised, and Grant was passing on horseback through Tennessee by way of Cumberland Gap, over• steep and icy roads, in midwin ter—the winter• of 1803-1--to look after affairs in theßast. - My quarters were scantypand wo oc cupied a room together. During the early part of the evening the General was engaged with his A. A. G., over seine correspondence with,his di fferen deld commanders. Grant wrote or dictated the more important, letters, some of which were read in my hear ing, and I was struck by the ease, conciseness, and clearness of his com position. Every sentence was simple and pithy; there was little repetition, no indecision, nothing to correct. POW men can equal him in putting orders or reports concerning complicated movements into intelligible English. Business over, the weary A.-A. 0. re tired to bed, hut Grant allowed nosigns of fatigue, and sat up with me lung af ter the witching hour, smoking and talking over old times, and discussing the progress of the war, the characters of men, and, to a certain extent, the future movements of the several, ar mies. 1 had known him casually for many years, but never till now had I enjoyed so good an opportunity to judge of his intellectual calibre. His conversation flowed on placidly, a broad, rtrong, full stream, from topic to topic, evincing such a keen but coin prelienaive judgment of mon and meas. ures, generals and generalship, states men and statesmanship, as few would give him credit for at that day. His perception of character, as tested, in some eases of my own familiar acquain t:wee, was wonderful. Ho appeared to read men lilts an open book (at a glance), or by some one action, or some slight manifestation beyond the ordinary ken. Hence his "lucky" cholas of generale. The next thing that impressed use, and that which is least known of him, was the peculiar quality of his mental operationii in complicated affairs, viz , a power to generalize and to select and fasten his mind upon the prominent points, to the exclusion of enveloping details. His mind baring once seized the right thread of any tissue of facts, be hold to it with an inflexible grasp that was not to bo shaken off by any power under the sun; there that fact stood, as plain to him as a mountain peak, lifting its head above the whole range; it was as simple to him, and in the course of his converaation it seem ed almost as simple to you, as the al phabet—so simple, indeed, that you were not half inclined to give the man credit for his sagacity. /Most men Would have strained them selves in the process of arriving at the culminating points of their reasoning; whereas, to Grant's mind, the culmi nations themselves were so apparent that there was no labor. These mighty plans that ho talka over in such a plain, ttoassaming, unconscious war, seem like the most ordinary combinations of an ordinary mind. you do not realise their- greatness until afterward,-and then you begin to do justice to the man that does himsellsolittlo justice in his mariner of specob. thOughts are not the least clogged with the pro cess itself through which a problem is solved. His insight cuts like a stiihrd through each gordian knot, and there lies the result, divested of all mystery very pith and -marrow of the matter in hand. This power of dealing only with the prdponderating facts, add of losing sight' Of `all the cumbersome aptly Which commonly weighs down weak- er souls, is the, mit& Cal! it itbstraction, 'ctohne eentration, or what you will, is highest law of intellect, 'such as OtcSar and Napoleon displayed in govnyn mect,"NeWton and laiplaceln science, and Goethe in . art"; • Great truths-are always 'Cliiar to • 'greiit lands. • ruit Grant fell a' inketer Workman 'rather thiti a - thinker.

He scarcely seems to know whether he has violated prin. ciples laid down in the books, but un consciously carries out new principles, and his deeds speak for him. In every emergency the question with Grant is, what is the best thing to be done I and that, with him, is the only thing; that he always seems to discover at the right time and in the right place. It is a gift ; not the gift of inspiration, but the intuition of prodigious common sense, genius bounded by utility, I had good opportunities afterward, in the course of the war, to observe the strong leader us ho knit together the links which throttled the rebellion. Always intent on the essential objects, which he had for the most part long held in view, and which the public it self now begin to discern, never em barrassed by troublesome details, ho crushed the Confederacy by taxing the supreme resources of the country, and directing the blows of his gener als, stroke after stroke, to the two or three main onwhich refutes, success de pended. The rebellion collapsed so suddenly that the world was astonish• ed. The idea of "luck" wns dispelled, and people began to estimate the great ness of the central figure which now loomed up above the beads of all our• chieftains. It is because few persons have op portunities to see Grant in his element, at work, overmastering events, and because ho makes such a common place show in his ordinary intercouso with people, that the elementary strength of his character is not visible to the world. Especially is be (led, client in conversation with strangers on subjects which ono might naturally expect would draw him out. But it is a rare thing for him to bo drawn out. Ile does not talk for effeet.— He knows nothing but utility, Most men converse well in the line of their own art—they dote on the won-' pons of their skill; but to Grant his own art is no art—it is all common sense; and such is his dislike of every kind of display that he would sooner pass, with the 1t 7 4 - .MA philesopher, for an idiot, in a proika; than fur the best talker in America. Human greatness can beet be meas ured by. the magnitude of the difficul ties that are pvercome. In this case, other great soldiers being the judges, ' the difficulties were so great that Grant alone, of. all the chieftains in tlie field, was able to overcome them. .bero were men of talent and genius around him, but only in Grant appear ed that combination of mind and heart'which was absolutely necessary to success in the Into colossal struggle. I doubt whether there can be found one of, his lieutenants who will not frankly admit that, in some partieu• lar quality, Grant excelled him, and such a quality was essential to success. Ilany of his characteristics .are well known, but they can be best grouped by comparing him with his best his torical likeness, namely, Wellington. Wellington was not a genius, but the quintessence of common sense. He was cold, and inspired no enthusiasm in his troops ;_without personal osten tation, but with such perfect sincerity of character as forbade display or .eg, otiam ; cool, cautious, daring, and in defatigable; of a mind so equally bal aweecrtlut, prosperity could not elute nor adversity depress him; undazzled by victory, undismayed by defeat, rug, gad in honesty, staunch in patriotism, concise in utterance, he was as intense ly _English as Grant is intensely Am erican; he was the rock against which French enthusiasm dashed itself into froth, as Grant was the tower against which Southern chivalry tilted itself into splinters. - - Yet he was more a man of ptivilege than Grant. He worshipped his order and was a Tory, while Grant worships his country and believes in the coin mon right of man. Ile could, like Grant, endure everything, but could not, like Grant, dare everything. In this respect Wellington resembled Sherman ; he feared no danger that he could see, while Grant fears no danger whether he can see it or not. Lilte Grant, the Iron Duke was strong in his clear heart. lie could grasp the greatest events; howbeit ho remem bered the smallest details, and thus embarrassed himself in cases where Grant world have been free. Grant nips the mightiest events, and leaves the details to men of detail, judging and knowing his man by an intuitive sagacity equalled only by Napoleon. No one but Wellington has been equal to Grant in simplicity, upright, nese, and massiveness of character; or so free from selfishness, jealousy, vanity, passion, meanness, and irreso lution. Nothing ever distorted the vision of either man; neither pogitessed the imaginative faculty; both were generous, but Graht is m'agnanimouti, While neither Wellington nor Grant has been so much indebted to fortune as to Idle practical forge n) On telleo . In civil affairs it was to the wisdom, moderation, and patil4iBr, of Welling ton that England fooled to save her from revolution, as America nt4 loblgs to Grant for saltation.

Will you Let the South have all it Fought for ? What the North Dreads. From the Now York Commercial Adreetiser. In his letter to Wade Hampton and others, accepting an invitation to ad dress "ten thousand people" at Col umbia, S. C., John quincy Adams, the Democratic candidate for Governor of Massachusetts, writes ;-- "The interest and, I doubt not, the convictions of the dominant party will prevent any dispassionate consid ation of your case until after the election. It is declared, and, I fear, it is widely believed, that the spir its of secession stillfwethe Southern heart, and works through the Dem ocratic party. A mass of honest men are taught. and believe that the success of that party means the political re-establishment of- the genius of revolt, and the elevation to power of the Southern leaders in the war. * * * * * "If the Democratic party is defeat ed in their canvass, it is because the people tear its success would jeopard ize the substantial - results of tho war. * * * * * * "These fears mingle largely in the canvass, and will exert, a strong influ ence in the result." Mr. Adams here hits the nail on the head exactly. The supporters of the Union dread the election of Seymour and Blair because they aro irrevoca bly pledged by their platform backers, and mouthpieces top renewal of the turmoil and bloodshed from which we have just escaped. They believe that the leaders of the Southern Rebellion have become the leaders .of the D . eraci= cratic party; that whereas 1860 they divided I,he party to secure se cession and revolution, they have now united it for the same purpose. They believe that "the spirit of secession still fires the Southern heart," and permeates the Democratic organiza tion. Neither is it possible'to escape these conclusions. The whole tone, temper, and conduct of these party leaders during the past four months .can ad mit of no other construction.. When the more cautious and far•sceing en deavored to run the party into a con servative groove at the National Con vention, they were ignored, while those who endeavored to occupy pro gressive ground were unceremoniously shoveled under. Hampton, Forrest, Vance, and others, obtained control of the Conventjon. They dictated the platform and candidates, and, fresh from the committee room, proceeded South to inform the unrepentant rebels that the ends for which they fought were to be secured. From that day to this the air has been filled with the mutterings of revolution. Taking their cue from Blair's Broadhead letter, Democratic orators and mouthpieces, North as well as South, have boldly proclaimed that, in the event of suc cess, they purposed to tear Congress iorial laws into shreds, and disperse Congress and the Congressional "usur pations" at the South with the bayonet. The people thus clearly . perceive that with Seymour and Blau• as President and Vice President, another era of an archy and discord would be forthwith inaugurated. In the outrages which are now being perpetrated all over the late Confederacy, they have a foretaste of what would follow the success of the Democratic party. And it is because of this that they are now rallying with such unanimity and do termination to the support of Grant, who declares "let us have peace." We have in this dread an explanation of' the fact that General Dix and all oth er leading Democrats who CI id not sympathize with the rebellion are de claring for Grant regardless. of party ties. It explains why it is that. the Democratic rank and file are deserting in shoals to tho Republican party. How TIIE DEBT WILL BE LAID.—In answer to that query, Judge Kelley,: in a recent address, said :—"Let us look at the future, and see if we can not discover something cheering to soothe our agitated nerves. The pep sus reports from 1790 prove that our population doubles every 20 years. It is increasing more rapidly than ever before. Hitherto immigranta came only from Europe. But 011 W they are pouring into the Pacific Stata from China, whose people number 560,000,- 000, or double the population of West ern Europe. Ten thousand Chinese aro employed in building the Pacific end of the Union Railroad of which have spoken, and every steamer that arrives brings from 800 to 1000 of those industrious people. .But to Fe'- turn : our popelpion doubles in 'twen ty years, and if not anopher debt be paid till then, the iiliaPo'oreach Amorican eitigen in' 1.888 will be $25, rind his share'of 'We interest involve a taN. of a dollar and a half per year, or less than three cents' . a week.

But they have been unable to reduce them safely with sufficient rapidity to accomplish this, and the debt has gone on paying itself. And while our polloy has been to reliimi industry and capital of all unneces sary burdens until the country should be restored to its normal condition, and the Southern States be in the full enjoyment of their productive power', we have paid more than $250,000,000 of the principal of the public debt, and have paid in back pay and bol/nllO and pensions to our soldiers, and their widows and orphans, nearly $700,00Q;- 000 more. During the height of the war everything was taxed ; during the three years since the war, taxes have been removed from more than ten thousand distinct articles.
