ENGAGED AT DEFEAT

When Grant handed over the War Once
to Stanton, he obeyed the law, served the
country, and respected the desires OF the
loyal people, But he defeated the Presi-
dent utterly. The latter had intended ana
expected to use the General as tool to do
the work which he desired done, but feared,
himself, to do. He proposed TO have the
great name and services of the gallant sol
dier turned to his own account and to carry
ON his war against the country from behind
them, more bitterly and more eiiectually
than ever. According to his plan, Grant
was to hold possession of the War Office, re-
CARELESS of the action of the Senate and
thus either precipitate revolution, or give
rise to an interminable proceeding in the
courts of law. The responsibility was to so
upon the shoulders of the General the real
author of the movement was to be the Pres
ident, who stood like a srinning, exultant
Mephistopheles, in the background.
All this fabric of devilish ingenuity was
overturned in moment by the prompt ODE
dience of General Grant to the mandate of
the Senate, in pursuance of the law. All
the expectations of johnson were dashed to
the ground. He was foiled, defeated, baulk-
ed. 1t is easy to picture his rage. 1t is easy
to comprehend how bitterly and iuriously
lie raved at the destruction of his bad plans.
And from that point it is just as easy to IN
derstand how desperately he would lead the
assaults upon General Grant.
He charges the latter with deeeiving him.
OF course he was deceived. He expected
Grant to be his tool to do evil work, and
thought the plan promised success. He was
disappointed He has deceived himself.
He alleges that Grant made certain adj
missions before the Cabinet. The principal
of them is alleged to be that the General
promised not to give up the War Depart
mcnt without further notice to him. Let us
take the worst side of the case and suppose
this time. Suppose Grant, surrounded by
the President and his six subservient bread
and butter caters, had been artfully drawn
into admissions the effect of which he die
not perceive, but which johnson and his 81,
are prompt to herald to the country, through
their partisan agents: What of it? w
challenge the world on the question, VIVA
of it? Does any man doubt the upright
ness and honor of General Grant, in conse
quence thereof? Does any one question hi
integrity, his honesty, his truthfulness
Can any one for moment consider him il
comparison with Andrew Johnson who's
whole history as President has been that {
a false, faithless, perjurcd imposter?
No, Mr.. Johnson, this last trick of your
has failed of its purpose. You cannot in
peach the patriotism Of Ulysses S. Gran
With your mouth full of false promises, fu
Of tricks, deceits, and lies, you cannot tul
to attack the character of any decent mar
The people will judge between you. The
respect the man who saved the Union; the
cannot but despise the wretch who woul
have betrayed it anew. With all your a!
saults, and those of your mcrcenares, Gc'
eral Grants motiues stand pure and u,
spotted before the country, and The toyo
people miH sustain him. Marx that.
Delaware tribune. [volume] (Wilmington, Del.) 1867-1877, 1868-02-13

The Cincinnati Gazette says This is
the sum of the whole matter. Johnson did
not dare to come into direct collision with
Congress, and in spirit of low cunning he
sought to put Grant in position to do the
tighting-to violate the law. Defeated in
this, he assailed through the press, the char
acter of the General. Next he sought TO in
duce Grant to disobey the orders Of the Sec
rotary of War, without himself taking the
responsibility of countermanding the author
ity OF the latter.
People have complained of Gen. Grants
reticence. His correspondence with the
President shows that he has pluck that he
has a deep regard for the interests of the
country; that he believes il his duty to obey
the law; that he has opinions, and that he
does not hesitate to express these on proper
occasions. lie does not go out of his way
to write or talk, but he can do both when in
the line of duty.
"A correspondent at Indianapolis writes
The leading theme Of conversation here the
past week seems TO have been the speech of
Senator Morton on Reconstruction. This
speech seems to have done more toward
arousing the fire which seemed for a time
almost dormant in the heart of Indiana Re
publicans, than anything else which has oc,
Cured for months. Aside from the princi-
pies enumerated tnefcln, WHICH rctsSuic tnc
party that truth is mighty and will pre-
vail" it indicates that an offensive warfare
is about to begin. The feeling that we were
to wage a defensive warfare, were to parry
off as best we could the seemingly plausible
attacks of the enemy, had most discoura-
ging effect when the party knew SO we'll
that the Democracy had been guilty OF
enough infamy in the last six years TO keep
| it ON the defensive for the next fifty, unless
| this capital were foolishly wasted. The
| trouble was, that no one struck the Key
note and the party waited for that to he
sounded. Morton's speech has struck the
right chord and this, followed by the vic
tory in the Eighth Ohio District, which the
Democrats try in vain TO explain away, has
had marvellous effect upon the Republican
party in Indiana. From all sections come
in the cheerful tidings that the party is pre-
pairing for battle with heart IN the contest,
and belief that we shall undoubtedly win.
When man proverhially modest, hon
est, truthful and reticent, like Gen. Grant,
breaks his silence under the sting Of II
wrong, he speaks to the point There need
be no complaint of his characteristic rcti-
cence when he abandons II to write such Il
letter as that about Sheridan's removal, OF
such letters as he has just written to the
President of the United States. They are
the letters ola patriot, an honest man and q
aw-respecting public servant, They have
done more to eXalt Gen. Grant in the csti
nation of the public than anything he has
done since his final triumph over the rebels

The SOUTH CAROLINA chivalry have had
their delicate souls convulsed with humor at
the spectacle of white and black men sitting
together and legislating in the same hall, in
the hall too, where the Pinckney's, the
Rhetts and other whiskey-drinking fire
eating gentlemen of the old school used to
sit. Northern Democrats have shivered in
sympathy with the disgust of their Southern
brethren at what they call the revolving
spectacle. 1t is however u time honorcd
custom, at least, to judge political bodies
by their works, and we propose to Judge
this one in the same manner
On Thursday last the South Carolina
Convention adopted the first seven sections
of the Bill of Rights which are substantially
as follows 3
All men arc born free and equal
H.-Slavery is forever prohibited
llI.-Vcsts the power in the people, and
bestows the right to modify the folm OF
government.
lN.-Citlzens owe paramount allegiance
to the Government Of the United States.
N.-Future attempts to dissolve the
Union shall be resisted with all the power
of the State
VI.-The right of the people TO assemble
is not to be abridged
VIL.-The right of free speech and liberty
of the press are asserted
This looks very much like bill of rights
any Northern State would be willing 10
adopt, and such a one as none who fought Oh
sympathized with the Union army in the late
struggle would, If given time for calm con
sideration, vote to reject. "By their works
We shall know them" This howl of rage
and fury against the Southern Convention.
