Next week being holiday week the

dance with time -honored custom, issue
no paper from this office, in order that
our employees and ourselves may have
the only breathing spell which We claim
during the whole year. TO our friends,
increasing daily in numbers, extending
over almost the entire length and
breadth of the late Confederacy and
embracing not few in the Northern
States, we send hearty greeting, wish
ing them many happy returns of the
festive season, an abundance of good
cheer and everything that can conduce
to their well being. Enjoy yourselves,
friends, to the top of your bent, but

GEN. GRANTS POSITION.

We find in the New. fork correspond
ence OF the Charleston Courier the toll
lowing which purportsto be letter from
Gen. Dent, his brother-in-law, to a
friend in that city, written in anticipa-
ton of the late Grant meeting
DEAR S. =. To be quite frank
with you, General Grant does not wish
to be either the Republican or the DEM
ocratic candidate for the Presidency.
He would prefer to be elected by the
people, without any reference to the
party organizations. If it is possible,
let there be new organization, repre-
resenting the people and not the pollti-
clans. The General is now in posi-
ton which suits him very well, and he
will not give it up unless he thinks he
can be of more service to his country.
He will not take the Presidency if he
cannot enter upon its office unpledged
and unembarrassed by party affiliations
and platforms. He does not want to
decide upon questions of public policy
until they come up to settlement, and
hence his reluctance to be questioned
as to platforms, or confined to certain
lines of action. He has definite views
ofhis own, which are tolerably well ex-
pressed i'm an article written by a
young friend of his for this January
number OF the GALAXY. OF course he
must not be held responsible for all the
views therin expressed, but 1t gives a
bout what he thinks of the present po-
litical situation.
While demanding perfect freedom of
action for himself, General Grant does
not wish to act Independent of the peo-
pie. His care would be if elected, to
study their interest and wishes and do
for them about what they wanted to do
for themselves. Let party questions
enter into the canvass for Congressman,
and whatever the will of the people is,
the General will try and loyalty obey it..
On one point the General is quite
clear. If elected he will make no APP
pointments on account of political SER
vices. He believes that reform OF our
civil service, such as that embodied in
Mr.. Jenckes' bill of last session, is of
vital moments, and all he will ask OF
any candidate for position is honesty
and capacity.
You may use this note among friends
and If they think General Grant can be
elected without reference to either OF
the existing parties, let them go ahea d
but againlrepeat, General Grant does
not care for the Presidency If it is to be
the gift of party.
