Here is what the New York tr"Hf"J
Past, 'Etrooly Ipii" Radical sheet,
has To say about h:.t master Ulysses.
It is ilnnateriai to us down here
whether the Past and the President
settle their little point of breeding
aInicably OF not. 1t is "none of our
funeral: :" nor do we think the result
viii affect us any way. The Po$t goes
for our second Washington in the fo--
lowing Gisloyal words:
Addison says that ''gooJbreeding
shows itself most where, to ;,n ordinary
eye, it appears the least. President
Grant, III dealing with the postoflce
question in Charleston, lost an excel
lent opportunity to do Il graceful and
generous act. Amost happy coniunc-
ton of circumstances offered them
selves IN his service. The report of
his approaching visit to the Southern
States enabled the citizens Of Charles
ton to show their respect for his oiiice
by cordial invitation to accept their
bountiful hospitality. just then the
question of a change III the postCfhce
came up. The postoffice is the one
Federal office In which all members OF
the community are interested and OF
whose management every one has more
or less knowledge; in this case the
person holding the office had com
mended himself by his integrity, m
dustry and courtesy to the confidence,
respect and favor of his fellow-citl-
