President Grants Position.


Grant authorizes the publication of q con-
versation held with q leading Radical Of
Mississippi, at Secretary Fish's residence
on the Hudson, in which he stated his strong
utilization with the Radical Republicans in
Mississippi and Texas.
Second Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, August ll.-The following
statement is made public by permission OF
President Grant:
In an interview with General Tarbell,
secretary Of the Republican Executive Com
mittee OF Mississippi, at the residence OF
Secretary Fish, in New York, on the 9Th
instant, General Grant remarked on the
small number of Republicans engaged in
the National Republican Party" in Mis-
sissippi using the name of Judge Dent, and
said that in his judgment the fact was itself
evidence that they could not be otherwise
than used by the opposition.
The President said his only desire was
peace and amity, and he would do anything
that was right to bring that about, but that
these people cast suspicion on their own
motives by the fact that all their efforts
seem to be aimed Mt dividing, not aiding,
the Republican party in their midst. If
they were really in earnest they would not
be so anxious about those with whom they
acted. To sincere men it could not be diff
cult to tell who in the South were and had
been the friends of the Administration.
The President stated that in his CONVEX
sations with the gentlemen representing the
new Republican party in Mississippi he
had expressed himself much more emphati-
cally against their course than he had to
| General Tarbell. He said he fully endorsed
General Ames's administration, and that
officer would have to 10 much more serious
things than he had heard charged before he
would subject himself to removal.
