that a gentleman in this capacity, who understood
the theory and practical adept in the cure of
lame disea sed horses, would be cheeriully wecom-

Tributes to Grants Greatness.
When Congress was debating
the bill to revive the grade of
General and confer that rank
upon Gen. Grant. Hon. A. j.
Rogers, a Democratic Member
of Congress, from New Jersey,
said:

Father of his Country
Congressman Finck, an Ohio
Democrat, also used this Ian
guage:
: ~ honor him, sir not only
for his brilliant services in the
field, but because of his mag
nanimity in the hour Of tri-
umph, and his genuine mod.
esty."
Pollard, of the Richmond Ex-
aminer, paid this tribute to
Gen. Grant in 1865: ..
Gle had, with remarkable
ability, accorded honorable and
liberal terms to the vanquished
army. He did nothing to dra,
matize the surrender he made
no triumphal entry into Rich
mond; he avoided all those
displays Of triumph so dear to
the Nothern heart; he spared
everything that might wound
the feelings, or imply the hu'
initiation of a vanquished foe
There were no indecent eXulta'

Government. we agree with
them for once. a politiciani is
not necessarily a statesman.--
Political dempgogues, who had
in them none OF the elements
OF craftsmanship, have more
than once brought tho Gov
ernmcnt to the very verge of
destruction - witness Pierce,
Buchanan, and Johnson.
What is a statesman? What
is craftsmanship? Is there any
higher craftsmanship than a
a thorough knowledge OF the
science OF human nature? Was
there ever Il great soldier, who
lby the united voices OF Amer
i.ica and Europe) is better en-
titled to that appelation than
Gen. Grant
We lay it down as a rule
without an exception, that
there never was Il great soldier
who was not also a great states
man. We challenge The rec
! cords of history TO find an eX-
ception. We do not assert that
all great soldiers have been
! good men, but even the worst
of them were better than the
politicians OF the age and coun-
try in which they lived. The
most eminent and successful
statesmen of our country
Washington, Hamilton, Knox,
Monroe, Jackson, Harrison,
and others-won their first dis
tinction il arms, and were re-
nowned warriors before they
became civil rulers. General
Grant will be no exception to
! the unvarying rule OF Ameri-
can heroes.
