What General Grant Regretted In
e ..-.f--.r' December. rst#-


Z When the Radicals and their followers
read the intelligence that General GRANT
took and occupied a prominent place by
the side of President JOHNSON while the
committee appointed by the Philadelphia
Convention were delivering to him the
proceedings thereof they raised their eye
brows in utter astonishment. But short
time before they had coupled his name with
the Presidency, and they fattered them
selves with the idea that thereby they could
win him into the support of their revOlu-
tionary Radicalism. Now they do not feel
any confidence in their lure. They have
strong misgivings that General GRANT Is
heartily in accord with the President, a
supposition most reasonable. Having
fought to maintain the Union, 1t would
indeed be unaccOuntable If he were to
identify himself with party whose policy
illustrates practical disunionism. In this
connection, they should recollect that un-
der date Headquarters Armies of the
United States, Washington, d. e. Decem-
Der 1S, 1865" General GRANT submitted to
President JOHNSON report of his tour
through the South, wherein he gave his
views touching the condition of affairs
there, which the President communicated
to the United States Senate. In this report
General GRANT used this language:
at is to be regretted that there cannot
be greater c0mmingling at this time be-
tween the citizens of the two sections, and
particularly of those entrusted with the
power"
This expressed regret by General GRANT
would seem to have prompted the holding
of the Philadelphia Convention. In De-
cember last he was fully convinced that
there would good result to the country |
from the @commingling between the citi-
zens of the two sections" and the attend
ant results of the Philadelphia Convention |
were such as to verify the correctness Of
his views expressed in December. Strange
it would be, then, werehe not to look upon |
that movement with great favor. ~ 4

No Cholera Hospital and No ChOIeru

The Morning Journal cites the fact that
we have no cholera hospital as evidence
that there is no cholera in the city. But
why have we no cholera hospitalP Simply
because the City Council requested the
Board of Healthlnot to establish one within
the city limits, after the Board had engag-
ed Tod Barracks for such hospital, ap-
pointed a steward, and made other ar
rangements for the establishment of a
cholera institution on large scale.

johnson men had a glorious meeting at
the CITY Hall here this evening. The Hall
was crowded to its utmost capacity, and
the greatest enthusiasm prevailed. John
NcGaffey.s ESQ, of this place, was the
speaker, and most admirably did he acquit
himself of the task he had undertaken, viz :
that OF showing up the dusky record Of
Hr. Shellabarger in Congress-, and point
ing out the iallacious position assumed by
him ia his speeches, during the present
campaign. Mr.. McGafey spoke for
about an hour and half, during which
time he was listened to with profound at
tentlon, and his telling hits were frequent-
le applauded. -,
The unpopuIarity of Mr.. Shell1barger in
this ( Clarke) county is being hourly devel-
oped. From all indications, there is every
reason to believe that the majority against
Miller In Clarke, county will nDt exceed
eight or nine hundred d-perhaps even less.

FROM WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-The Committee of the
Nevada Legislature headed by mr.. Speaker
Frazier, had an interview with the President yes
terday, to present theresolutons adopted by the
Legislature, endorsing his policy for the Recon
struction of the Union. Tho President made a
brief reply, referring to and reiterating his pre-
vous declaration in regard to reconstruction, and
said he had only to thank him for the encourage
ment given by he resolutions. and hoped his
future acts would show that this confidence has
not been misplaced, and that the passers of the
resolutions arc not mistaken in the APPROVAL they
speak, he said. 1t is not necessary
for me to- site the principles 1 have
adopted for my guidance. They are understood,
and there can be no mistake to the position
occupy. Persons who act upon principle and I'M
derstand the principles they act upon. cannot
disagree. and must act together, and whatever
their standing point in acting upon such princi-
pies, they however. involuntury, sometime will
approach each other; and the converse of this
proposition is also true, that. whenever they disa-
gree upon principle, they commence divergent
course. The most gratifying thought to me is,
that have acted upon principle ever since my
earliest entrance into public life.
There has always been with me some fundamen-
tai idea regarding the nature of this revision, and
have never departed from it; and it is also
gratifying to me, after the ordeal through which
we have passed. that through the chaotic state OF
the public minds this idea still lived and that
these principles are again enunciated; that there
is still an apprehension of them, around and
about which there seems to arise equalization
of views that willn future sustain the country and
The principles on which it lives.
General Augur, commanding the Department Of
Washington. has issued general order saying
that in order to alay uneasiness and prevent lti-
CATION concerning lands, etc, confscatable by
authority of the Government it is directed thatno
person within the limit of this department, who
duly acquired title by such sales, shall hereafter
be undsturbed in the possession thereof by milsry
interferebce.

Kentucky Conservatives Indorse The

- President d
WAsmSGrox, March "a delegation from the
State of Kentucky has presented to President
johnson the proceedings of a mass meeting held
at Frankfort, Kentucky, indorsing his veto mes
sage. Mr.. Dawson read an address, in the course
of which he said the presence of the agents OF the
Freedmen's Bureau in Kentucky tended to pro-
duce generalization and dissatisfaction among
the negroes and annoyance and Inconvenience to
the white citizens. and was productive of no good
results. The people Of Kentucky and the laws
of the State if left to themselves, viii secure tho
negro in all his right of person and property.
There are more cases of wrongs by negroes upon
white persons in the State which go unpunish
ed by the civil authorities. than of
wrongs of whites against blacks. He would not
disguise the fact that there has been, and there is
STILL some Impotence and dissatisfaction felt by
the people at what they regard as unkind sus-
picons and Determinations against them upon the
part of tho Government, which they sustained
throughout the late terrible conflict.
The President briefly responded, rendering to
those whom the delegation represented and to the
State of Kentucky his unfeigned thanks fer the
kind expressions and manifestations of confidence
in him personally, and an endorsement Of the
policy which shall control his administration.
1t was peculiarly gratifying to receive these as
surances at this particular time. He trusted that
the result would show that the confidence thus
reposed was not misplaced, and would never be-
come matter of regret upon the part of those
who gave expression thereto.
The result is regarded as most gratifying at this
critical juncture in the affairs of the nation
scarcely less so than when an armed and organ
lied force sought to overthrow the Government
and to attack and attempt to cause n disruption
of the Government by an armed combination and
military forces, which was no more lawless than
the present attempt to revolutioniEe and under
mine il, by a disregard and destruction Of the
e-guards thrown around the liberties of the
people in the Constitution. Our stand has been
taken Our course is marked out. We shall take
no step backward. Our purpose in this regard
can not be given more plainly than has al
ready been furnished. In the future as in the
past we shall endeavor in good faith to make the
| administration of affairs Of Government conform
to the Caasttution in its letter and spirit There
in is the only guarantee to the liberties of the
people. 1t is hoped by an adherence to this rule
to remedy ere long all the irregularities and an
noyances to which people have been subjected.
Again do we assure you that these demonstrations
of confidence and assurance of support on the part
| of the people are exceeding cheering to us-that
we are grateful for and properly appreciate them,
and that our most earnest wish is to discharge
| the trust c0nfded to US as to merit them.
