Grant Quarrel. viii a Radical senator

The HeroIFs washiDgIOns special gives
the following account Of an alleged inter.
view between Senator Ross and President
Grant. Ross was admitted at the same ss
old Zach. Chandler, but had the Grst chance
to speak to the President:
II come, Mr. President, to talk with you
about the appointments for my State; hav-
ing heard that you intended TO make certain
nominations: they may not harmonizs with
NY desires, If you deem Il worth whilo to
consult them 10 the least"
To which Grant laconically and interroga
lively responded.
"Well, SirT
The Presidential response was not 10 the
true manner to be reliShed BY the Kansas
SeDator.
"Am I to understand that l am rightly
Informed rs to your stated intention to dis,
regard my preferences in the matter OF ap>
pOlntments, Mr. President? inquired the
Senator.
That is a question hardly susceptible of
an answer, sir. To what appointments do
you allude Inform me and then can rel
ply rejoned Grant.
+ Senator Ross liked the second answer as
little as the first, but having come for en>
lightenment, he was determined not to go
away in fog. The Senator therefore, with
rage explained the appointments to which
be had reference
Frankly, sir said Grant, Il intend not to
make those appointments
What, sir, you scorn to accommodate me
the least, exclaimed Ross, boiling over With
rage.
Sir, l believe l have given you my
answer, firmly, but srcrnly, replied Grant.
This is not treating me fairly, Mr.. Presi-
dent, nor as one gentleman should treat an,
other, uttered Senator Ross.
l have no intention of being dictated to,
sir said Grant, sharply.
Nor have | 10 be insulted even by you,
sir, were you twenty times the president, ex-
claimed Ross, with his ire stirred up to a
white heat.
Il must decline to be enjoyed any fur.
ther on this subject muttered Grant be-
tween his teeth, and desire the interview
should terminate
'YOu aud your desires may 60 to hell,
roared out Ross.
Leave the room sir, leave the room, or |
shall force you OUT thundered Grant.
Boss took his departure accordingly in q
terrible rage, quitting the White House like
one rushing from a plague, and hurried to
the Capitol. President Grant threw himself
into chair the moment the door closed, and
wiped his brow with pocket handkerchief,
evidently much agitated. Old Zach Chand-
Ter approached aud was thus addressed by
the President: Excuse me for few nom,
cnts after that interview must take little
time to cool off Such is the account which
have learned and which give substantial

, ,Enrther y Interference with the
South is pronounced to be 'unneces-
sa-y by one who has been all
through the Southern country and
observed the working of things
there. The astonishing stories re-
tailed sbroughsthe Radical press of
loyal whites aud blacks murdered
by the Ku Klnx by thousands may
do very we'll to influence country
pumpkins, but can scarcely find be-
lieffrom intelligent. thoughtful men.
AZ no time siac alie wa closed has
there been so much order at the
South, excepting the States of Ar
kansas and Tennessee where they
have the negro militia to preserve
% tue Peaoe. Whites. and blacks
have already ceased to trouble their
minds with politics; and if left I'M
disturbed the bonds Of friendship will
be drawn yet closer between them
by the mutually of their interests
if no othes influences operate to
this end. Except in the large ecu
ters of.population, wherethe negroes,
are yet inlulging in idle dreams Of
supremacy, the impression grows
stronger every day on the minds of
the colored race that no matter
which party wins neither political
rule over white men nor the confs-
catioarof property for their benefit
will be permitted them, and consc-
quently, the only temptations OF in
flucnces which held them to the rad
zeal party being removed, they
evince, as their votes in Georgia
and elsewhere show, a decided in
elination to be guided in their civil
and political affairs by the advice
of theft employ ers or late
mastcrs.t These have no disposition

Shareholders were never, as a class,
inhuman, and if when they owned
the negroes as prosperity they seldom
abused them, there is bat scant
likelihood Of their doing so now.
People who imagine that the power
# the cx-slaveholders has ended are
egregionsly mistaken. They are
prep airing to rc-enter tho political
arena strongerthan ever, Hitherto

Silently the door closed after
them, and silence dwelt III the sa-

had been there in cherub form, and
crazy, loose, unholy though, or
light and ribald jest was hushed.
One by one they stole away, and
many wife wore smiles that night
nor did the old bartender even,
curse the little one that robbed him
of so many dimes. Too deeply in
his heart had sunk the voice of that
cherub preacher.

you cross at me?' asked little Will
lie, while they stood few moments
on the pavement; for the scene in
the bar-room was an enigma to the
child, and he half feared a reproof.

his father solemnly; and ere mid
night he did cry and his wife, but
they were holy tears, washing his
heart Of the dust that had gathered
on its beauty and hers Of the sor-
row that had draped it like pail.
