GRANT'S HABITS.
ao the TA tor of the Chicago Times.]
CIITCAne, ILL., March T.
"Grant for President!" Could the negro
worshipping anatias, who clamor so loudly
for the accidentally manufactured Jupiter
who commands our armies, to be chosen chief
tnagistrate of the nation, have as clear and
positive knowledge of the habits, character
and abilityof the man as has the writer here
of it is doubtful if many would be so loud in
their laudations of his snpposed virtues, his
exaggerated bravery, his questionable wit
dons, or his overlauded heroism. It has been
my- privilege to know Gen. Grant intimately
since he first assumed command of the forces
In the Mississippi valley, when he made his
headquarters at Cairo; and whatl am about
to state of him, his habits, character and con
duct, I shall substantiate by the statements
of gentlemen well known in this city, and
whose word will not be disputed, if they may
be asked whether my statements may be
, true or false. Not only will all I write be
corroborated by the persons I shall name,—
Radicals though they may be—but stoma of
the most respectable citizens of Cairo will
respond most Unequivocally to the accuracy
of my allegations. ' That sobriety was the
exception and not the rule of General Grant's
conduct while located at Cairo, is a fact too
well known to need confirmation, but in
dividual instances of beastly drunkenness are
not of rare occurrence. I will mention two
or three which fell under my own personal
knowledge, and which I am ready to verify
on call. On the Bth day of November, 1861,
the steamer Alec Scott started from Cairo on
a trip to Colutnbus, KY., carrying a flag of
truce, and General Grant, his staff, and a few
other army officers; the newspaper corres• 1
pondents, and some invited guests. When
the boat reached her destination a bevy of I
rebel officers came on .board, among whom
were General Cheatham, General Pillow, I
"Colonel Rusk, and a General from Arkansas
whose name I do not remember—when a
general drunk commenced, which was kept
up until late in the night, after the flag of
truce officers had separated and the Scott had
returned to Cairo. When the boat reached
the wharf at Cairo, General Grant was iri
such a state' of intoxication that it was
deemed imprudent to take him to his head
quarters, over the City Bank, where his Wife
was awaiting him, and he was escorted and
assisted to the St Charles Hote l
___, where he
remained. during 'the night When he ar
rived at the hotel it was found that he was
so drunk that considerable assistance was
needed to enable him to reack a room on the
second floor, - and Capt. R. B: Hatch, Post-
Quarter-master, and Robert Forsyth, general
freight agent of the Illinois Central railroad
—one on either side, and ,each with shoulder
under the General's arm-pit—hoisted him up
the stairs to CaPt Hatch's room. A hun
dred' persons witnessed this 'scene, and loud
and many were the expressions uttered of
censure and of disgust at the spectacle.
About 12 o'clock that night Grant got musi
cal, and an orderly was despatched - for a
brigade band to come and serenade hitu.
The band spoa put, in an appearance, and
were about to commence playing, when Mr.
Bedard and Mr.' Lansden, the proprietors of
the hotel, attempted to stop them ; but, on
word, being taken *General Grant of the ob
structions to the music, he,with drunken and
profane indecency, declared that he was
commander of that post, and he would have
the band.play.when and where he desired.
So the.band proceeded to the hall, outside
the room, where the General was rollicking
in • his drunkenness, and for a half hour
played to drown the uproar of the hell with
in. A month later to a day, the same steam
! er was the scene of another gorgeous drunk.
I upo n another occasion of a "flag-of-truce"
Iv it to Columbus, when Grant became so
wretchedly drunk that his friends put him to
• bed, and kept the boat in the river until he
I• became sober enough to be' taken home.
But of his most 'disastrous spree—that at
Fort Loonelsonl shill not speak until an
other time. -If possible to induce the Chica
go Tribune to tell the truth, I would be glad
to have Governor Brows relate what he saw
and what he said of the scene when General
Grtmt landed from Lis flag of truce visit to
Columbus just' after the battle of Belmont,
when: he (Grant ) was so drunk that he fell half
a dozen.times in going up the levee from the
whartbitand ke united efibrts of Captains
. Hillyer d Lagow.were insufficient to keep
him an his pins. ' I would also be tileased to
read what the fat writer of the' same paper
Witnessed upon the occasion of Gov. Yates'
Visit, to Grant, when he (Yates) was. accom
,paeled by. Mrs. Major Reynaldo, who, report
said, *as sometimes on, the Governor's off.

is with me. The people have been told all
sorts of lies about me in this particular; but
there has never been anything pmved against
me, though they have tried it often enough.
Out of all the witnesses examin' ed about the
trip of 1866, there is not one who proved that
I was drunk. But the people are, told it
through the Press and politicians—iu the
newspapers and on the stump—and I have
never taken the trouble to deny it. Yet the
man to - whom I have just now alluded, has
been in.this very room so drunk that he
couldn't stand straight on his legs. I'd like
to know why I'm abused all the time for
what I don't do, and why never a word is
said Omit. him for what he does do. It Ls a
very queer system of moods, T think, to say
the least of it. There is no fair play &Ant'
it, nor any of that even-banded justice that
should characterize the people in their treat

tigate my conduct, or any subject connected'
with it, they are at perfect liberty to do so ;
but.' think they owe it to me and to them
selves that they should not abuse me unjustly
at the same time they cover up the crimes of
others. Fair play is a jewel, they say, and
I don't think I have forfeited the - right to

"This was said in a tone'of evident good
humor, which at the same time showed that
he felt very keenly the injustice of the popu

worth while to add that it is a fact suscepti
ble of the best proof that his aggregate con
sumption of sp:rituous liquors in the past
year has not amounted to a pint in excess of
the wine ho has drank at State dinners. But
notwithstanding this, I doubt if it is possible
to persuade the loyal masses that he ever
goes to bed sober, just as, on the contrary,
with rellanl to the gentleman who "got 'dis
gusted with his Copperheadism" at Cleve

The following communication is from the

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7,1881.

TheSortunes of Gen. Grant have lately re

to sustain him for the Presidency. The feel

ance organization here (which is very large
and influential among citizens and politicians)
but extends to others, both drinkers and ab
stinent persons. -
Rumors have been floating.about for a con
siderable time past, much to the regret of

along in the lower part of the city, and at
about five in the evening was seen . by hund

How Poor. Hen Pay Taies.
Sometimes we hear men say: "Well, If
taxes are high they can't tax me 'mach; I
haven't any property I" Can't they tax you
much? Well, let us see.
In the first 'place you have property.
You are the owner of a poor body, which
you are striving to feed, and warm, and keep
a soul in. Perhaps-you hiive a wife, and,
more than likely a family of children. They

You,may hot own houses, or stocks, or bonds,
but you have property, nevertheless, and of a
kind iiticli - TS taXed , tea times over more
than any other description. The tax may
not he a direct one, but it is a heavy one, and
one which you find it hard to bear. You
may be paying it even without knowinq that
you pay a tax, attributing it all the whale to
something else ;,but that doesn't change any
thing. It is a_ x, all the same, and you are
obliged to paY it. If you ask, then, how you
are taxed, woe answer, on everything you eat,
and drink, and wear. Almost on etery breath
you draw ! You are taxed in so many ways
that we cannot enumerate them. But in or
der that you may bee for yourself, we have
had carefully prepared the following Prices
Current, showing .a list of principal articles
every man has to buy more or less, of, with
what they cost before the war, and tvhat they
cost now. The difference is what you are
paving in taxes. Look it over carefully and
you will probably be able to decide whether
you are paying taxes or not.
The first column shows the average prices
for ten years before the war.
The second shows the tax paid by . poor
white men to support bondholders and ruggers
and to keep Radical office-holders in posi

Plain Questions and Answers.
Question.—What's the atatter at Washing
ton?
Answer.—Cougresi Lib a quarrel w 44
President Johnson.
Q:—What about r
A.—President Johnson thinks the Constir
tution and the laws made in pursuance there.
of, are the supreme law of the land. Con
gress says the laws of Congress are binding
upon the President, whether made in pursu
ance of the Constitution or not.
q.—Who is to decide which is right and
which wrong?
A.—The Supreme Court is authorized by
the Ccinstitution to construe all laws and de
clam wing laws are binding and whet are
not.
Q.—Why don't they refer the dispute be•
tw•een Congress and President Johnson to
the Court then, and have the question set•
tied Y
A.—President Johnson has been trying to,
have that done, but Congress is not willing
to risk the question as to which is right.
Q.r—W by ?
-A.—Because-Congress has been legislating
"outside the Constitution " and President
will not agree to perjure himself by
endorsing unconstitutional laws, and, there
fore, they want to depose Lim front office.
Q.—What good do they expect that will do
them?
A.—They can then place in the Presiden:
tial chair a man who will do their bidding—
one of themselves.
4.—And then what?
A.—They can pass all the laws they re
quire to perpetuate the power of the Radical
party. 'Negroes will become voters and law
makers, and white men will have to take
back seats: --
While there are comparatively few respec
table pemile who will treat strangers or ac

there are many who seem to take off their

when they go home, and assume adeport•
meat which would degrade them in every
one's. esteem, if indulged in public. Some
