Gen. Grants Republicanism.

This is what Senator Wilson says of the
republicanism of Gen. Grant, in letter to
the New York Independent
The past and present of the republican
party and the personal integrity of Gen.
Grant afford ample assurance that their
and his sentiments and opinions will be dis
tlnctly avowed IN the coming canvass In
the trying days of the warm the summer
of 1o63-Gen. Grant wrote from his camp
on the banks of the Mississippi to his tried
friend Washburne
Il have never been an anti-slavery man ;
but l try to judge justly of what l see. |
made up my mind when this war commenced
that the North and South could only live
together in peace as one nation, and they
could only be one nation by being a free
nation. Slavery, the cornerstone Of the
so-called contederacy, Is Knocked out, aud
1t will take more men 10 keep black men
slaves than to put down the rebellion.
Much as L desire peace, L am opposed to
any peace until this question of slavery IS
forever settled"
This emphatic ayowal fully committed
Gen. Grant TO the policy of emancipation
He was, too, for the reelection of Abraham
Lincoln, declaring TO his nearest friends
that his defeat would be a dreadful calamity
to the country. Since the close OF the war
he has been in accord with Congress, in its
efforts to protect the loyal. black and white,
secure the equal rights OF all, and restore
the rebel states to their practical relations
When the pending constitutional amend
ment was before Congress, he was for its
submission to the people; and when it was
submitted, he urged the leading men of the
rebel states to vote for its adoption. After
its rejection by the rebel legislatures, he
pressed southern men, who sought his ad-
vice, to reconsider their action, adopt II,
and give suffrage TO the freedmen To Lead
ing southern men he said You must
look to Congress; the republicans have the
power consult them; do not seek the
councils of men in the North who opposed
the war; the people will never trust that
class of men with power the more you
look to them for advice, the more exacting
Congress will be and ought to be; the re-
lection of the amendment and the legsa-
ton against the freedmen will cause Con-
gress to require universal suffrage; and
you should at once give it" Some of these
men were wise enough to accept and act
upon his advice To the reconstruction
policy of Congress vital and over
shadowing issue of the day-Gen Grant
gave his earnest support, and he has zeal
ously striven to carry the legislation of
Congress into effect. On the reconstruc-
tion policy, Gen. Grant has been and now
is in accord with the republican party. So
he IN hot
~ carried into effect that he urgently
pressed upon members of Congress the Vi
tai Importance of so arranging the adjourn
ments as to be able to meet at any time,
should the needs of the country require it.

bill is under way, and we hope will speedily
pass. This goes To the root of the whole

MASTERING OUT THE SECOND WASHINGTON
1t seems that General Hancock has brought
upon himself Il well merited rebuke. There
is now a bill pending in the Senate to reduce
the number of Major Generals in the army
greater now than during the war-to four
and providing for the mastering out of the
one last commssioned-th is Hancock 1t
also provides for the mastering out of the
last commissioned Brigadier General Rous-
seau, and the reduction of their number to
eight. Such is the just fate of those politi-
cal Generals who have the hardihood to seek
to defeat Il law Of Congress.

Is The House Emptyl

Mr.. EDITOR; The foregoing ques-
tion arose after reading the piece in
yonr paper headed "After the Fune-
ral:'' = Z =
: Few Of us have never felt The desc
lation of the house after the last sad
rites have been performed for one
dearer and mere precious than our
own lives, but can we be so selfish as
to let our own feelings so completely
absorb us as to lose sight of the
glory of the now immortal spirit of
orr darling one? What loss to
ourselves. Follow our loved one Ito
the home we feel was already pre-
pared for one SO pure) from the mo-
ment we saw the spirit had winged
its flight; and, oh, what visions of
Heavenly happiness will our vivid
imaginations soon picture for us
such scenes as can only be purchased
by the ransom of our glorious Re-
deemer; the impatient, restless feel
ing natural to our selfish hearts will
be celmed, aud give place to the con-
temptation of the immortaPs happi-
ness, causing strains of thanksgiving
and praise to ascend to crucified
Saviour for the unalloyed happiness
of our darling. Happy the feeling
of our loving hearts that the spirit
of our precious one is ever near us,
taking the place as ministering angel
and chosen as the one to place "the
light in the window" for us. God
does, indeed, bless the mourner tc
whom he grants such 'calm and
thankful heart"
There's light i'll the window for thee,
brother,
There's light in the window for thee;
A dear one has gone to the mansion
above,
There's light in the window for thee.
