PRESIDENT GRANT on OUR NEW
MOVEMENT.

PRESIDENT GRANT on OUR NEW
MOVEMENT.
Ia q brcf conversation yesterday be
tween two or three OF our cillZans and
President. Grant, the address recently
issued by the Republicans Of this coun
ty was referred 10, anI some explanations
were made to Hi, Exaeeo respecting
The character of those by wrom it was
put forth, and the purpose of the ge0er
a. moVemen, Of which II was an expo
uenl aud part. Tho President said that
be had read the address rcftT d to. and
50 far as he understood our local alta Rs
he thought The policy advocated in ii
was right aud proper He thought
discrimination on account Of psriicipa-
Iicn in the rebellion should now cease,
snd referred to the fact that, acting upon
this idea, he had 'afyrded the people Of
Virginia and Mississippi an opportunity
to throw overheard the obn xjyuS claus
es of their constitutions en'orcing such
discrim nltions. He said care should
DO taken TO avoid division among the
Republicans such as had happened in
Tennessee; but he thought tho ideas ad-
vocoted in the Wheeling aidress were
"about right" Being asked if he had
any objections to having his approval of
those IDEAS made known, he replied that
it would be improper for him 10 interfere
10 any way in our local politics; and be
d d not want to be mixed up with them
But this expression of his views having
been thus drawn from HIM without the
slightest thought on his part Of iuterfer-
ing or volunteering advice. we feel that
there can BE- no Improperly in stating
the main point Of the conversation as we
have done. viz: That President Grants
attention had already been attracted to
the Liberal Republican m v,mrnt in
this State, and that he regards it with
decided favor, as being in cOnsonance
with his own ideas and official acts; aud
that while he counsels the utmost caution
to avoid division among us, he would
glodi y see the Republicans of the State
united on such platform as that cmbod.
