the Memphis Appeal, expressed him
self as being very hopeful Of. Mr..
Greeley's election.
General Grant has not yet put in n
claim that Pleasonton "lied." He
knows there's more to come out il he
calls for it. His memory is now re-

Mr.. Stewart did not call on Grant
when he was there by admitting that
"Mr. Stewart is not on friendly rcla-
tions with the President"

been comedy of errors, but it was

lieye the tediuin by introducing th'
