TBxAs ArFAIRs-AS IsTERvIRw WITH
rus PRESIDENT. Yesterday afternoon Cen
eral Clark, candidate for Congress In the
Third District Of Texas. and Captain saylor,
Of the same State, had an interview with
President Grant. The yslt was not made
primarily with reference to political affairs
In Texas, but In the course of conversation
that matter came up, when the President
gave renewed and unequlvocal assurances of
his sympathy with the Republican party of
the State Of which General Davis Is the OK
ponent, and Of his opposition to the Hamil-
ton wing. lie intimated very plainly tina.
he considered Hamilton the leader Of the
rebels Of the State, and that he stood in the
same relation TO Texas Republicans that
Andrew johnson did to the Republicans In
Tennessee. lie considered both inimical to
the success Of true Republican principles.
When II was represented that Hamilton
claimed on the stump In Ills State that he
was endorsed by the Executive, the Presi-
dent emphatically denied that he had ever
given him any reason TO suppose that his
course or his party was endorsed by the Adj.
mlnlstratlon or Its head, and In this conncc-
tIon he used the significant language that
because Hamilton had gone over to the rcb'
els was no reason why no (thc PresldenD
should do SO.
Gen. Clark aud Capt. saylor left the Pres
ldent much gratlhed with the interview, and
confident that oil the power and patronage
Of tho Administration would be thrown on
the side Of the true Republican party Of the
State, that ultra democrats and cx.rcbels
would not DO favored In their plansi aud that
II tho removal OF the military commander
was necessary to the advancement Of the
cause II would be promptly effected.
