GRANT as PRESIDENT.


Whatever may be said of President
Grant-and he certainly does not lack
adverse and eensorieus ciiticisms-it
cannot be denied that his aduinistra-
ton is bis own. When his official ap-
pointmens were first published, proph-
estes were abundant that the President
would prove to be a mere tool in the
hands of his friends bat the fact Is
that no President has ever shown him
self to be more the master Of the sit
nation than Grant. IF The administra
ton has merits tbe credit is due to him,
and if It has made mistakes they mast
also be laid at his door. We are not
prepared to fully endorse all his foreign
policy, though We certainly do not con-
slider it worthy Of all the acrimonious
censure which it has received The
future may show it to have been wise,
but it cannot he denied that those who
consider it as being hasty and prema-
ture il many particulars, and who claim
tat the President has transgressed
the limits Of good taste in enforcing
bis views, give plausible reasons for
their belief
Nevertheless, we regard tie admin
istration Of our public affairs as being
honorable and satisfactory. Under it
the revenwes Of the country have been
collected vigorously and honestly ap-
piled our delicate relations with Eng
land aaye been skillfully managed our
foreign credit has rapidly appreciated ,
and, in fact, all the benefits which
Grants political friends hoped and pre-
dicted would accure to the country
from his election are being substantial
IL realized. Fe still believe that he
vas not only the most available but
also, all things considered, the bestman
in the nation Cor the high Office Of
chief magistrate; and we confidently
predict that, If the remainder Of his
term proves no less satisfactory than
the portion already passed, he will re-
ceive the endorsement Of reelection.

II is reported that the resaras Of the

beyond al expectations, during the

surprises even the census takers.

EUROPEAN CROPS.

The supplies from the Don and
Dneiper districts had commenced to
arrive at Rostock during May, being
much earlier than usual, but owning
to the failure Of the wheat crop IN
Volg districts, there viii be a def
cheney Of 30G, 900 chetworts, equal to
1900, 600 bushels, from the usual
supply.
The growing crops in Holland and
Germany are unPromising, and a de-
fcient yield is anticipated, which has
induced speculative purchases Of grain
in various Baltic ports.
The want Of rain in France gives a
8ickIy appearance to the wheat plant
on the light soils, while on the heavy
lands the condition Of the wheat crop
is faYorably spoken of. The rye crop
had suffered most from drought.
At Rostock, Germany, the supplies
of grain were light in the hands Of
three-fourths Of the merchants, and
those held by the other fourth are not
in the market now and will not be for
two months to come
At Rotterdam rain and a higher
temperature had made their appearance,
and the serious complaints Of the grow
ing crops had terminated. 1t is be-
iieved the rye crop in Rhinish provinces
vii be short, from the effects Of the
late s1,riny and the drouUhf
The account of the g owing crops
in Great Britain are SO far not as
favorable as at corresponding period
in 1869, mainly attributable to the
want OF rain.
Private adyices from Liverpool state
that continental buyers Saturday
cleared the breadstuffts market ahead Of
cable quotations. Hence the English
purchasers had to fall back on our
market, and the result was that they
swept it in less than ten minutes OF
100000 bushels of wheat, and were
dissatisfied that they could not get a
sufficient supply Of -four for immediate
shipping purposes.
On Sunday orders were received by
cable from France for further pur
chases. and there exists now no doubt
that seri us troubles are apprehended
on the continent. War in the east of
Europe is among the immediate pos
sibilities Of the summer.

The latter they enjoyed immenselv but
Captain Poole wisely limited them to
che glass each, not desiring to witness
So ping scene on his frigate. After
this repast, the red men were conducted
all over the ship. The Admiral chen
had one of the fifteen-inch guns loaded
with powder, and each one of the
Indians pulled the lanyard in turn
This was royal sport for the Indians.
and as each gun was fired they looked
eargerly for the splash of the ball
which they thought was in the cannon
1t was impossible to explain to then
that the gun was loaded with pOwda
only, as when they visited the Brool-
Ign navy yard a shotted gun was drsd
for Their especial edifcahon, and their
delight was then to watch Tor the bali
striking the water.
After the visit to the frigate the
Indians returned to the Astor House.
where a crowd Of five OF six hundred
people were assembled. The private
entrance on Fesey street was besieged
by an excited multitude anxious to gee
a peep at the redskins, y eat1hey were
disappointed, as the stage drove up to
the Barclay street entrance.
Although they had been 10 certain
extent amused by what they have seen
in New York, still they were all anx-
Ious to get back home. Captain Poole
says that the crowds which logged
their footsteps wherever they went
annoyed them considerably, and it IS
owing to this that they have depal1ed
SO abruptly, Many invitations we're
sent them, including one from James
fisk, Jr., to visit his steamers, and one
from the officers of the turret ship
Aiiantonom0h, Spotted Tail, however
declined to accept either, being tired
of Eastern life. He also refused to
to take trip up the Hudson, saying
that be and his brethren all wanted to

Before the Indians departure from
Washington. President Grant handed
$500 to Captain Poole, and directed
that each chief should choose presents
to the value Of. 500. TLey we're
accordingly taken to an uptown store,
where each filed a large trunk with
articles of various kinds. Combs,
brushes, umbrellas, blankets and beads,
seemed particularly to please their fan
cy. Swift Bear wanted to take about
a dozen umbrellas, but was dissuaded
from it by Captain Poole.

Wilkie Collins and Edmund Dickens.
The entire party were attlred IN deep
but simple mourning, without bands
or scarfs. There was no crowd at the
Charing Gross station, and the process
sion was driven at once to " Westminster
Abbey where the remains were re-
ceived by Dean Stanley and other
officials, and placed in the Poets
Corner" at the feet Of Frederick
Handel, the immortal son of a Saxon
barber, whose wonderful operas and
oratorios will live as long as the aroma
of the Christmas Carol, and at the
head of BrinIey Sheridan the Irish
humorist, with the historian Burlington
iIacauley, Dickens cordial friend in
life, and the dramatist Cumberland on
either side. The usual flowers were
strewn upon the bier Dean Stanley
read the burial service The coffin
was then deposited in its fin al resting
place. and the funeral Of Dickens was
ended Upon The coffin plate were
inscribed the words Charles Dick
ems: Bora Feb. Z, 1872 died June 9,
1870" Thousands of citizens have
crowded the Abbey during the day to

STRoNGLY PUT.-A 6cotchman by
toe name Of McRae has spent the
last two years travelling in the United
States, and has embodied the result
Of his 0 servation in two goodly sized
volumes, recently issued by London
publishing house. lie complains that
tie bitterest opponents TO the English
Government, which he found in this
country, were American-ScotcI,men.
The following conversation which he
had with one Of these hard-beaded
customers, illustrates his point:
The very first day I spent in New
York, after passing into the States
from Canada, / called upon a business
man with q note Of Introduction.
After reading the note, his first quas-
ton was a How did you stand, sir, in

my reply, he said, with some asperity
England, sir, should sit down in
sackcioth and ashes; yes, sir, she
should wear sack cloth till it had worn

during the rebellion" lie went on to
speak Of the British press, more es-
pecially Of tie Times, whose editor, he
declared, if suspended to the first
lamppost, would meet with better
fate than he deserved. Of the various
