Grants Habits.


Gen. Grant has been accused of in.
temperance. The Copperheads fight
him with talk about this alleged bad
habit, Just as the rebels fought him
with powder and ball in the war; bat
the case is set right in a little speech
which the Hon. w. e. Dodge made on
Thursday evening. Mr.. Dodge said
that he had just been n Washington, =,
and had a long interview with General
Grant. and, continued he, 81 left him
with the conviction that neither we nor
the friends of temperance have any
cause for anxiety in this respect" Mr..
Dodge is President of the National Tenn
perance Society, and no one can be
more hostile 10 everything approaching
Incorporate habits in q public man.
The truth is that the practice of Gener-
al Grant is total abstinence. In camp
he-almost alone, among all the prom
-tu6l1b officers -sf the army-never tOler-
ated liquor or wine either at his table
or about his teut- Fatiguing marches
and the excitement and exhaustion or
battles did not make him break over
his rule, not to touch or taste anything
alcoholic, Again and again we have
seen wine offered him at public and
private dinners, only to be steadily re-
FUSED. We are assured that now, in
time of peace, and in the society of
Washington, he still maintains the
same custom. His enemies must in
never believe that General Grant is a
druukard; and If, from not personally
knowing Grant, they are not sure Of
the facts, they viii answer as President
Lincoln did tfLet me know what
kind of whisky Grant drinks, and
will send a barrel to every one of our
GeneTals.''-Ns Y. Sun.

Pope Beeober,s Bun

There is q grim humor in tho fancy
which places Rev. H. w. Beeeher in
the position of Pope; condition the

idea of its occurrence originates with
the possible Pope himself. In the
current number Of the Ledger, the
revefend gentleman thus f0reshadoWs
some new articles Of faith which he
purposes to pEomuleats when he en-
ters on the Papal position:

cause for neglect Of duty.
SeCond-EVeTy man shall annually

Third-WeddinR gifts shall never

Fourth-It shall be the duty Of ev-
cry young married man TO read aloud
to bis wife, at least one hour q day
for the first ten years after bis mar
riage. But this shall not bs construed

the further fact that there must have
