Grants Private Letter to the President

The so-called private letter Of Gen.
Grant, written in August last, pros
testing against the displacement OF
Secretary Stanton, and more especi-
ally the removal of Gen. Sheridan,
has at last beer published. The top-
ic was supposed to be principally the
merits of Secretary Stanton, but ap-
pears to him that he gave only
one paragraph, stating that the civil
tenure bill should forbid the removal
OF Stanton by the President, mas
much too, as the country had great
confidence in him. But the bulk Of
the letter is given to an earnest and
unqualified commendation of Gen.
Sheridan. That Grant liked his Off
Ger the people had reason to know,
but many will not believe ill they
read this letter that the General-in-
Chief regards Phil. Sheridan as one
Of the very few men Of the country
whom he cannot commend too high
" for patriotism, his ability, and his
signal services. His language is SO
memorable that we quote it. 1t is
truly muttum IN parU0:
Gle is universally and deserv
eily beloved By the people who sus,
tanned this government throughout
it's trials, and feared by those who
would still be enemies Of the govern
ment. 1t fell to the lot of but few
men to do as much against an enemy
as Gen. Sheridan, and it is within the
scope Of the ability Of but few men in
this or any other country to do what
he has Wisconsin.

A PARADox.-The law of Congress
establishing the Freciman's Bureau,
costs the country many millions of
dollars annually, in order to main
tain in idleness a nation Of black
paupers. The plea which justifies
this enormous drain upon the re
sources of the people, is that these
black stipendiaries are incapable OF
supporting themselves. And yet
Congress propose that this army of
paupers, thus incapable of self-sup-
port, shall become the dominant gov
erning class Of the South, not only
controlling the destinies Of those
States, but multiplying the voice of
States like New York and Pennsyl-
vania in the Congress of the United
States. Does history furnish a paral-
lei with such folly and madness as
this?-Albany Argus.

the deliverer of all nations, the Sa-
viour of the world These were til,
questions te be discussed, and all tina
is said in the ninth, tenth, and elev
enth chapters, is subordinate to these
questions. The Calvinistic interpret
tations of this chapter fail alto
gether of supplying any answer to
the objections Of the Jew, in minister
ing any comfort to him in his dejec-
ton from which he can only be rais>
ed by the blessed assurance with
which St. Paul concludes this 1lth
chapter-that "He that believeth in
Christ shall not be ashamed"
Hence we perceive what kind of
predestination the apostle speaks of
in this epistle. The Jews believed
themselves to be the elect people of
God rs nation, not as individuals
the doctrine of individual predesti>
nation was not held save by an OBJ
scure Jewish sect called the Essences.
Therefore how unworthy OF st. Paul
as an inspired reasoner to have op-
posed to this their notion of national
election to Gods favor this Calvinis
tic doctrine of individual election, viz,
that a comparatively few individuals
scattered here and there among the
Jews and Gentilcs were the elect =
He wished to prove to them that
persons of all nations could become
the elect. His main purpose was to
show them out Of their own scripture
that persons Of all nations could now
become the elect people Of God that
the church of Christ called all men
without respect of persons, to come
and partake of the redemption chat
had been wrought for them on the
cross, and the passages of the Old
Testament which he quotes are pro
phetical of the time when all nations,
not few unknown individuals would
be offered salvation through Christ.
Take this Calvinistic sense ofindivid
ual election, and the apostles argu-
ment amounts to nothing.
God did predestine to establish His
church at the very time it was estab-
lished. He predestlned to open IT'S
door to both Jew and Gentle, to ev-
cry human being, for he is not will
ling that any should perish. He in
this way predestined all men to be
saved who would themselves make
their calling and election sure, and
this is ST. Paul's doctrine of predesti>
nation that enuallv condemns the ma
tional election of the Jew, and the
individual election of the Calvinist:
perfectly reasonable, proclamlng
both the justice and loving mercy OF
the Father Of all mankind. We are
