The Republican Press ard Grant.

The majority of the leading Radi-
cal papers in the country have at
tackled General Grant on account of
his interference in various state cleo
tons. We might mention, in p~atircu-
lar, the st. Louis Democrat, the Chi
cago Tribune, the Cincinnati CONNER
cial and Gazette, and the New York
Evening Post. as papers which have
severely criticised Grant in this con-
nection. In a recent article the Post
went 30 far as to compare Grant to
Johnsen, instancing Grants r~etalia-
tory course in the st. Domingo bust.
ness, and his attempts to punish Sum-
ner over Motiey's shoulders, and
Schurz by turning the latter's friends
ont of office, as evidence of his hav-
ing as stubborn a "my policy" as
Andy. The Post says
General Grant does not entertain a
very high opinion Of Andrew John
son. Does he know he is Initiating
Mr.. johnson in one of the acts which
made that person most .odlous to the
people ? Mr.. johnson was headstrong
wilful, determined, and when "my
policy as he called it, met with oppo-
sition, he punished" those who dar-
ed to differ with him, just as General
Grant is now furnishing Senator
Schurz.
MI. johnson had a "policy" which
whether right or wrong, had at least
the merit of concerning a question OF
real importance. If he iuterfered in
elections, and punished" his oppo-
nents, it was because he. believed that
the future welfare OF the country de
pended upon the success of my "poli-
ty. eaL r.
But General Grant il interfering
in elections and Furnishing senators
because they opposed a mere caprice
of his; d measure, too, which had nc
favor anywhere IN the country and
whose only friends-aside from Gen
Grant himself-are o few in4imates oi
his household.
l. There is something indicrous N
Grants being compared to his old and
hated enemy. 50 soon after their rough
and tumble fights Grant has provok

criticism from his party organs, since

There was q meeting of negroes IN

last night, to consider the subject OF
their exclusion from hotel tables,
sleepine-cars births, steamboats,, state
rooms, theatre parquette seats, first

Speeches were made denouncing the
spirit of caste, and resolutions passed

When the so-called great rebellion
broke out, the Southern people urged
as q sufficient reason for the course
they were about to pursue, that the
government intended to violate the re-

out self government-and that, to ac-
complish this. he would be finally en-
franchised by the North. +.
The government of Abraham Lin
colin. studiously and Indignantly re-
PEELED these charges, and declared
that those urging them, were seditious
calumniators. Nevertheless, the pre-.
dictions of the South, were more than
fulfilled in the short space of four

Slaves were asked to fire the buildings
of their masters, and to murder their
helpless families, under the lead of

of the facts connected with the life of
the wonderful woman known rs the
sleeping beauty. Who is now in this
city. For the benefit Of those of
u readers who have never heard of
this extraordinary case, which has for
more than twenty years puzzled the
most eminent physicians of this coun:
try and Europe, we describe the wo-
man and her condition.
Her name is Susan G. Codsey, and
she is twenty nine years of age. She
was born in Obion county, Tennessee,
inst across the State line, and about
six miles from Hickman, Ky.
Her parents we're extremely poor,
and lived in a small log house con
tanning only one room.
500 Until eight years of age the girl
was strong and healthy, and seemed
in nowise remarkable. At that age,
however, she was stricken with fever,
but was attended by an experienced
physician, who soon checked the, dis
ease. The girl sunk into a slumber
which lasted an unusually long time,
and finally awoke weak, but WE'LL
To the surprise of his family and
physicians, she remained awake but o
few moments, when she again went to
sleep. From then till the, present
time. twenty-one years and three
months, she has never been awake
more than Eighteen minutes at a
time.
The letharsic state invariably lasts
. certain numher of hours. 6he
awakeus at SIX o'clock in the morn
ing, and ut three. and nine o'clock
each night, never varying one half
minute from the regular time. She
takes but very little h~ourishment, and
that only twice In tuenty-four hours.
During the time in which she, sleeps
she does not appear to breathe, and a
mirror held against her nostrils re.
mains untarnished. Her breathing,
if indeed she breathes at al, is not
sufficient to stir the lightest down
suspended against her nostrils by q
silken thread.
When her remarkable condition be-
came known. physicians focked from
all parts of the country to see her
None were able to satisfactorily nc.
count for the phenomenon, although
many theories we're advanced. The
true cause has never to this day been
determined, although the woman con-
Ftinues alternately to sleep and wake
with the regularity of clockwork.
Two physicians, Drs. Rhea and Clio
yer, are now in attendance upon her,
and although the former has visited
her constantly for sixteen years, he can
still form no opinion regarding the
cause. -.5 crH sj- -
She IL rather under medium size,
and with the exception that she is
sometimes troubled when awake with
neuralgia pains in her head and neck,
and that one arm h slightly paralyzed,
enjoys, as far as she can enjoy any
thing, rood health.
Her hands are extremely sma3l and
delicate, being scarcely larger than
those of a child six years of age. An
other remarkable feature in the case
is that while her hair has grown, to a
great length. her finger nails have not
grown any SINCE she was first strick-
