THn GRANT paonIrx.-A correspond

THE GRANT PRoBLEM.-A correspond
ent of the Cincinnati Commercial says:
"I asked Mr.. Wade if he had ever
conversed with General Grant on politi-
cal topics. Il have tried to do it, said
he, sbut l never could bring him out.
When l saw the popular current appear
ing to run in his favor, I thought |
would like to know how he stood on the
great questions before us-whether he
was for johnson or Congress-or what
the devil he was for; but l never could
get anything out of him. AS quick as
ia talk politics, he'd talk horses. and
he could talk for hours on that subject
without getting tired. Well, horses are
very good, but in these times q man may
be ali right on horses, and oil wrong on
politics. Grant may be oil right, Tor
I know, but then again he may be oil
wrong. If he wants to be President oy
nv voice, and the voice Of tho men l
net with, he must not only BIO right but
he must prove that he is.' inquired
of Mr.. Wade what proof he would re-
auire from General Grant before sup
porting him as a Presidential candidate;
Would a letter endorsing the Radical
policy dot mo, It won't. we u
have his word backed by some official
act showing him to be in sympathy with
us, and in favor of the doctrine We 10
vocats. We won't take any WORD atter
what we have gone through. Grant
must come out and show his hand as a
pronounced Republican or he cant get
my support. idon't know my support
amounts to much, but what little there
is Of It will 20 in the right direction
