we're one night seated in Grants tent, engaged
in an animated discussion Of the relative mer-
its of 'possum and coon meat. The d;spu-

Here, you see, is clear and distinct express

But yet another item. Some time since,
Grant was travelling on the cars. Two men
on an adjoining seat were engaged in heated
controversy relative to President johnson,
when one of them, as . clinches, delivered
himself of the following speech: :" / would i'm
peach him. convict him. hang him. cut him up,
and render him out! His fat would send to
the Sepoys Of India, to grease their bullet
patches; and the cracklins l would give to

which to wash their husbands dirty breech.

friend, and wink. That shows how be stands
on the johnson question.
Determined to settle this question beyond
the shadow of doubt, / resolved upon per-
sonal interview with the General. Thurlov

yesterday We made the visit. The interview
lasted full hour, during which time We dis
cussed men and things. The General vas IN.
