THE ULTRA OPPO MING
GRANT

The AHti- SlaUery Standard, the pho.
neer Republican @ journal in this coun-
try, talks thus of the suggestion of Grant
as a candidate for the Presidency
Ii is in this light that the question
"Who shall be the next President be
comes one Of great moment to US and to
the colored race. In General Grant, as a
candidate for that Office, we do not be-
heye. He is, it is true man Of few
words, His words have been altogether
too few 10 entitle him to confidence or
support from intelligent, earnest Radicals
We require in our present national stu
alton pronounced and unmistakable opin-
ions. The period through which we are
passing is too critical, as involving the
liberty of race and nation, to admit of
anything doubtful or equiyocating But
Gen Grants action on the wrong side
has been louder than his words.
We do not forget, If the Tribune does.
the shameful "whitewash" mission which
Grant at a most important crisis con-
scented to perform in the interest of the
johnson policy" A distinguished
Major General who preceded him had
given us a candid report of the state of
affairs at the South report which was
at the time startling but, as subsequent
events have shown, only approximated to
a full revelation of the actual state Of
things To his everlasting discredit
Grant sought by the prestige Of his
military fame, in the interest Of a
treacherous Executive and Of horde Of
bloody ccnspirators, to cover up the real
situation by 'whitewashing' report,
and to betray the nation into submission
to policy which, had it been success
fGl, would have made freedom for the
blacks a mockery, ending for the nation
inevitably in irretrievable ruin. This
alone is enough to prevent any sincere
Radical from recognizing Grant as ct
Presidential candidate Add to this New
Orleans and Memphis, where he did not

by going gave the State government o.
Maryland to cur enemies,) not to speal

Of his bachannalian reyels in swinging
around the circle" with Johnson and
Seward it needs no speech from MIN to
sufficiently explain his position, and to
account for the fact that he is zeaiously
supported for the Presidency by the
Herald, Times, and even Tory Btack0ood
and Thurlow Weed He is not a suitable
candidate for colored voters at the South,
and for Radicals who can be zealously
urged by such as are the most conspieu>

about 800 majority. whero Butler had, last

run for Congress next year, We should judge
Gen. Butler may End heavy work. Gen. S. was
