otherwise, they have matched him with
Hayes, and are repeating the stale trick

greater reason to believe IN Grant than
there can possibly be to believe in Hayes.

There has been q good deal of talk in

in which Governor Hays is a party, in
which it seems the Governor got four
thousand dollars belongingto a soldier
that was executed for desertion. The
following letter explains the matter:
"HARTFoRD CITY, w. Va: June %,
lS7G.-"In the last issue of the Point
Pleasant Weekly Register, the editor asks
of us an explanation in relation to some
money with which Governor Hayes had
to do. 1 am glad an opportunity has
been afforded me Of giving statement
of this war incident, from the fact that
both myself and General Hayes have been
maligned and mlsrepresented in the mat.
ter. The following are the facts: In
the summer of 1864 our brigade, COM
manded by General Hayes, was ordered
to Monocacy junction, in Maryland, and
while lying there soldier belonging to
the Twenty third Ohio!was tried for de,
se,tion and condemned to be shot. l
was then captain Of thelThirteenth West
Virginia regiment, and the only one in
the brigade. This unfortunate man
wanted to see a chaplain before no was
executed. was sent for, and had some
conversation with him in relation to the
condition of his mind, etc, He then told
me he had some $500 dollars in money
and two watches, which he wanted to
leave with me. He said he had no friend
in the world that he knew of, except a
mother, and that she was somewhere IN
Virginia, but did not know where, and
if could find her out to send the money
and watches to her, and if not to keep 1t
myself. The man was shot, and imme-
diately after the thing was over, General
HAYES sent tor me to come to his head

me what the man gave me. told him.
He examined the watches and gavethem
back to me, and the money he said he
had decided belonged to, the government,
and / gave it to him. As to what he did
with it am not prepared to say, but

SAYS the New York Tribune: "No
person in official station has ever received
so much consideration, and had from the
people much charitable treatment, as
President Grant. No man has ever been
attended with such loyal devotion, none
ever so cordially supported or SO earnest
