WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-There seems to be
no doubt that the statement that General Grant
is in harmony with the Republican party as set
forth in the Press and Chronicle, of this morning,
was made with his consent. Ben Wade is sorry
about the Republican disposition to run Grant
He says, "let him come out like a man, and show
his principles" Thurlow Weeds wing of the
Republicans have proclaimed for Grant. This
mornings Tribune, in an article attributed to
Greeley, is strongly for Chase, and depreciative
of Grant, saying: 'Gen. Grant we esteem by
no means great man, nor even very great
General. The war being over we can no longer
carry elections by reading bulletins of Union
victories and exhorting the people to rally round
the flag, and those who are pushing Gen. Grant
for President will land just where the Wings did
with Scott in so, if they are allowed to pave
the way.
Hon. J. A. Seldom, late Secretary of War of
the Confederate States, has been pardoned.
A reliable letter from Lancaster says that Ste

characterizes Stevens confscation bill as unwse.
