Gen. Grants Moral Habits.

from the -Nesr York Post.
After the capture of Fort Donelson, an effort
was made TO effect the disgrace of GRANT on
the charge of drunkenness. The Secretary of
War deserves credit for the reply he gave
that he would not consider such a charge
when II was made against the captor of Dom
olson. Since them the firmness of the Presi-
dent and Secretary OF War has been tried
number OF times in this matter, especially after
the battle of Shiloh. Ii is believed that the
capture OF Vicksburg will silence these slam
we have satisfactory reason to believe that
the charges which have been made against
this our most successful general are entirely
without foundation in truth. He does moi
drink strong drink; he is not the slave of that
or any other habit he is temperate : abstem-
ious even-and neither at Fort Henry nor M
Fort Donelson, nor at Shiloh. nor before Vicks-
burg, nor at any time since the opening of the
war, was he ever seen or known by any one tn
be under the influence of liquor
Heis apure, simple-hearted, patriotic officer.
who has at heart the good of his country, and
that only; who has no desires tor political dis
junction, has not endeavored TO make for
tune out Of the war, and has therefore beenable
10 give his whole mind and heart and time to
ms autles- This accounts in good part fol
ms success, and has made him to-day the gen
erai VINO mas taken more prisoners and gained
more fruitful victories than all our other gen.
erals together.
Ii any one after this. still believes that
Grant is drunkard, we advise them TO per.
suade the government to place none but drunk.

were slaughtered by the Texan cavalry in the
most shocking manner. The cry of the suck

of the mother had no effect. The slaughter
was terrible. thought the massacre at St.
Martinsyille, where 500 men were found on
mules striving to reach Gen. Banks army, and
were surrounded, captured and all hung-I
thought that, of amonth ago, was bad enough /;
but this eclipses it completely.
One incident about few black soldiers at
the surprise at Bfashear. Capt. Allen, one of
Gen. Ullman's recruiting officers, had about
l50 recruits, with couple of recruiting SER
geants. They were all armed, and on board a
car waiting patiently to start for New Orleans
IN few moments. The attack was made.
The Captain was not surprised. He and his
men made breastwork of the car. and there
they fought the rebels alone, ill nearly ecerg

slain by the ruffians, who hungered for their
blood as a lion for his prey
