GENERAL GRANT.
His Visit 60 His Old Home,

The President of the Galena Bank, writing to
a relative in Boston, gives the following account
Of General Grants reception In Galena on his
return from Colorado, and of his department
among the friends of his former home:-
General Grant is here, quietly spending
fortnight in his home. l sent you paper
containing an account Of his reception. The
reception was spontaneous and informal, but
genuine and hearty. AT the serenade at his
house it was not expected that there would be
any speaking, but the crowd called some of us
oHt. l was taken entirely by surprise, but
could not back ont, as was standing on the
porch near the General, and had to say few
words. He is in fine health and spirits. He
walks about town every day in plain citizens
dress, the most unpretending man in the
place. He spent most of the forenoon to-day
sitting with us in the bank. He is one of our
stockholders. In private he is very social, likes
a joke and enjoys company. He reads the pa
pers diligently, keeps himself posted, and has
a pretty good idea of the political situation.
On Sunday he and his wife and family walked
to the Methodist Church, about half a mile,
instead of riding in carriage, as most great
men would have done; and this, too, when
his friends have placed horses and carriages
at his disposal whenever he chooses to call for
them. But he is a radical Democrat in the
true sense. If the good people who are dis

regard to his habits could only look into that
clear, calm, serene, and candid face for few
moments, they would say that its wearer
could not be man of bad passions or vicious
habits. 1t is astonishing how such ISLANDERS
of public men, if persistently repeated, will
come to be believed by their political Oppo-
nents, and by and by even perplex and dis
tress their friends. The only really bad
thing his enemies say of General Grant is
that he drinks. This would be bad enough,
indeed, if true, but nothing could be more
false or malicious. During all the time he
lived in Galena, never heard of his drinking
ardent spirits, and have never been able to
find any man, friend or foe, living here, and
who knew his habits, who could say that he
was Incorporate. In fact, there was no more
temperate man in the city. That his habits in
this respect are the same now, none who
know him, and meet him, can for moment
doubt.
"But have dwelt too long on this, for l
know you have no doubts on this point. We
are going to have big mass meeting here on
Friday next, and expect a crowd to see the
General. He will take no part in any political
meeting, but will be at home to see his
friends.'

the result, and Thomas Powell and Wllilam
Brindle, who stood at the muzzle, tell as tne
fame belched out, the lett arm OF the former
and the right arm of the latter shattered terri
bly, and hanging limp and useless at their sides.
The hand of Powell was completely shot, away
lust above the wrist, and the arm at the elbow
was torn in a shocking manner. The arm OF
Brindle was terribly mangled from the hand
nearly to the shoulder.
Not more than half dozen persons were near
the gun at the time of the accident and 1t was at
first supposed that both Powell and Brinde had
been shot dead. Mounted messengers were
despatched to Jefersonvi)le for surgeon, and
these passed Governor Bramlsttes carriage at 9
furious gallop, as the distinguished speaker was
on his way. to the Springs, in company with
Colonel Caldwell.
The wounded men were taken home to Jeffer
sonvil)e, where they both reside-Powell, on
reviving persistently cheering for Seymour and
Blair. Both men were veteran soldiers OF the
Union army-Powell having served in the 18th
Indiana battery, and Brindle having been q

Her Statue OF Abraham LincoIn.

Your correspondent recently visited the
studio of pretty Winnie Ream and her statue Of
Abraham Lincoln. We inquire for The statue"
and are pointed to a mysterious canopy in the
corner. A "notice" pinned to this informs as
that nobody is to uncover the statue without
sending for Miss Ream. Having no yearnings
for that young lady's society we turned to de-
part, when, lo the amiable scribe at the table
announces that If we will stand upon chairs he
will uncover the face. He lifts the cotton cur
tain, aud within we behold what looks like
colossal corpse standing erect, and swathed in
sheets. He lifts the clothes from the head, and
we behold a cheerful face in DARK clay. Mr.. Lin
coins features, surely, bnt how heavy, how me-
chanical, how opaque; ho y clenched the mouth,
how hshy the eyes, how void of soul the whole
hideous image! And this is the statue of Lin
coin, for which Congress has appropriated
$40, 600, to stand in the Nations Capitol Why,
my dear Congress, you had better have paid that
sum to have had the girl taught how to make a
statue. "How did you come TO do ito vote for
30 large an appropriation to one so ne&pe-
Tienced, and even Ignorant IN art 7" was asked of
a Senator teW hours later. "Well the girl was
crying outside; what was a man to do?n he
answered "When it was not the thing to CRY,
she smiled, aud her smiles were just as potent;
she cast up her eyes, she shook her ringlets
that's how it was DONE" The result-the ghastly
corpse in clay under the cotton canopy in the
Woolley dungeon And $4,000 out of the Gov
ernment to pay for IT. Washington CorTespon.

be turned over to the Slate. The negroes con-
