Summers Last Speech--What the New
York Journals Think Of It

New YORK, June 1.-The Times says that
Summers speech in the Senate yesterday is
collection of slanders against the President
with literary antiquarianism and scholastic
embellishments.
The Tribune considers Summers speech to
be one of the greatest he ever delivered.
The World says: "Sumner's indictment
of Grant recites nothing which the Demo-
cratic press has not reiterated for months,
but coming from man whose biography Is
the history of the Republican party, II VIII
carry conviction where the Democratic voice
would pass as the wind"
The Sun styles Sumner the American
Cesar, and calls the speech magnificent.
The Herald says: "The speech is savage
ar1aignment of the President, and the bitter
ness, which evidently is provoked by sense
Of personal provocation, will weaken its forge.
1t contains nothing new except the state
ment of Stanton that Grant couldn't govern
the country. co. +.
