The following dispatch was received at
this Office last evening after the REPUBLICAN
had gone to press:
"NEw ORLEANS, Oct. 4, 1855.
" To President Andreho Johnson:
'Goyernor Wells nominated by reclamation
by Democratic Convention. Presidents policy
endorsed. G. BuLLITr,
Omitted States Marshall.''
But, II uniting against the party that
elected him TO office, calling for compensation
for slave property destroyed by their own act
of making war on the only power that was
able to keep vitality in its rotten carcase, at
tempting to revive the Dred Scott decision,
and demanding the abrogation of all emanci-
patory acts, be supporting the President"
according to Louisiana notions, it Is about
time the biography of the President was cir
culated down there.

General Grants Apology for his In
ability 70 SPeechify.

When General Grant was at his boyhood's 8
home in Batavia, Brown county Ohio, few
days ago, he was evidently touched at the
cordial, tender reception given to him, and
at the memories Of the past, recalled at the
sight Of his old townsmen and their wives
and daughters, who were there to do honor
to him who went out from among them to
return the foremost man In all the world.
But he could not make q speech, and seemed
sorry that he couldn't excusing himself as
follows:
"LADIEs AND GENTLEMEN OF BRowN
County: You are all aware that 1 am not
in the habit Of making speeches. am glad
that never learned to make speeches when
was young and now that am old, !
have no desire to begin. had rather start
out in anything else than in making a
speech. And now, ladies and gentlemen, l
can only say to you that it affords me very
much pleasure to get back to Brown county,
whore my boyhood was spent" o..
