"And why not now7" Hamish answered

"They have not lost-not, may be, quite

enough, to set them waiiing," answered
Hamish, firmly they have lost master,
who was more like a father than Il master,

Grant Charged With Drunkenness
by Wendell Phillips An In

From the Anti-Slavery Standard.


This is ON anti-slayery journal. Look.
ing cut on politics as the negro looks on
them, it deals with public men and meas.
ures only as. they ara true Of false to him.
But experience has abundantly proved,
even before the existence of the present
administration. that only temperate men
can safely be trusted with grave response.
bilities. Temperance is the substratum Of
all other reforms, How sad the result,
when power is given to men who are won't
ito put an enemy in their mouths to steal
away their brains" this war has most i'm
.piessively shown US. Now rumors reach
Us from Washington, coming from different
and trustworthy sources; that Gen. Grant
has been seen Enthusiastically drunk in the
streets Of that city within a few weeks.
We know nothing ourselves Of the truth
of these rumors. We make no charge
against Gen. Grant in this respect. But
even the possibility Of the truth of these
reports is of too much momentous impor-
lance to be lightly dealt with. The ma
ton is bound to inquire az to the habits OF
candidates for high Office. After the ex-
perieDce Of the last three years it has no
right to run the slightest risk in this res
pect. No public man, whose friends are
asking for him high Office, ought to COM
plain or the strictest scrutiny by the pub
lie as to this habits in this particular. We
call therefore, on the national and State
temperance societies to investigate these
reports. They have this subject in their
special charge. They are bound to give
US the facts, and save US from even the
possibility Of such another infection as the
nation now suffers. Especially We call
on Hon. Henry Wilson, pledged teeto-
taller, to see that the whole truth in this
matter is given to the country. He has
devoted himself to the advocacy Of Grants
claims. As temperance man, he is
bound to see that we run no risks Of this
kind. Living in Washington, he must
know, or have ample means ofkpowing the
truth as to this matter. If we are unnec-
essarily anxious, let him relieve US by.
assurances that Grant is now
a temperate man, fully able, on all occa-I
sions, to Withstand this temptation. If
the fact is not so, let him explain TO his
associates how he dares to ask
their votes for Grant. It is perilous
enough to give the Presidency to man
who was, confessedly, an inyeterate drunk
ard two to three years ago. But it will be
the grayest crime to give it to him if Chat
vice still holds him in his iron grasp. OF
course fidelity to the negro must be our
first and decisive test Of any mans fitness
for the Presidency. But this test Of tenn
perance is also vital.

tp General Hancock, in date Feb

No. 40, which is a very important one
He declares the State of Louisiana
bankrupt, and from that date Gall the
licenses on trades, professions and oe-
equations, the revenues, dues and taxes
of the State of Louisiana shall be pay
able and collected in United States
legal tender notes." And "for the
purpose of carrying ont this order
without delay, the tax collectors
throughout the State, will report i'm
mediately, under oath to the State
Treasurer, the kinds and amounts Of
funds and moneys collected by them,
up to this date" The order closes
thus:
For the purpose of avoiding ex-
pense throughout the State, the assess
ments which have been made for the
year 1867, are adopted, as if the same
had been made for the year 1868, and
the collectors will be required to per-
form their duties under existing laws.'
