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.

field to the right conclusion as to the
work to be done. 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

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

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

merely provide• eaeh - year for the

to reduce them safely with sufficient
rapidity to accomplish this, and the

while our polloy has been to reliimi
