Grant aud the State Governments.

In the speech OF Hon. +. A. Fulton,
Secretary of State elect. delivered few
evenings since at Fletcher and Hotze' S
Hall. he quoted from Hon. w ii. Gray
the declaration that Grant, having been
elected, would furnish assistance for in
s;alling and supporting the Minstrel can.
didatss Such stuf is quite a staple oi
conversation with the members Of the
$ ate house ring.
There is no foundation for it. Mr.
Grant is re elected without tho vote OF
Arkansas. During the canvass in the
North the condition Of this State through
the operations Of the ring was gres,
incubus upon Grant There Is no reason
why Grant should further bother him
self or his administration with Clayton
and I;adley. Unless, therefore, there
should be found an innate, irrepres iblc
love Of corruption in the national admin
istration. it is not likely it will seek to
continue bound TO this body Of putridty
and death
Already there are unmistakablc symp
toms of Grants policy toward the thieves
and scoundrels of the South, who tcsNatu
carry on their villainies in his name, and
claiming authority and support from his
Administrations
InAIabama, a United States Marshal,
day or two since, arrested Conserva
tive members Of the legislature under
prctcnss Of violation OF the election law,
bu. for rbs real purpose Of preventing
their participation in the organization OF
the legislature, thus placing the power in
the hands sf the Alabama Minstrels.
This performance is dsapproved by the
administration at Washington, and tho
officer threatened with dismissal.
