On the train here 1 met a formerly
wealthy planter of Calhoun county, Ala.
Here's our conversation, after the prelimi-

Wealthy Planter-I was a radical seces-

succeed. Though / was born in Massa-
chusetts, 1 hate her now, and all her abo-

lieve we will yet be successful in obtaining
what is Justly due US.
Correspondent-And what has become
of YOUR slaves? Don't you hire them, or
contract with them somehow
Planter-My niggers are all on my
plantation, and 1 furnish them as former

Gen. Grants Real Name.

The Milwaukee Ne1Ds says that promi-
nent and reliable citizen of Wisconsin was
told by Gen Sherman, when on his recent
visit to Milwaukee, 'that Gen. Grants
real name is Hiram s. Grant, and not
ULYSSES s. Grant, as he is nsnally desig-
mated. Gen. Sherman stated that the
name bv which Cen Grant goes was ac-
ouired by the blunder of the member Of
Congress who recommended Gen. Grant
for the Military Academy, when he handed
in the name of young Grant to the Secre-
tary Of War. After his appointment tC
West Point, the embryo Lieutenant-Gen-
eral endeavored to secure a correction Of
the error, but the officers; of the Academy
declined TO do so for want of authority
and referred the matter to the War De
partment, where for some reason it wa
neglected. The modest student of military
tactics finally Aanked the difficulty by as
snming the name which accident and th'
official record assigned him. His mother
however. never forgot to call him Hiram,
and Ulysses never fails to respond to thC
CALL" Whatever of truth there may be il
| this statement We cannot say. ~
