What He Thinks Of His Administration
How He will use his last week Of Power.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.
The president in an interview with an
associated press representative this evening,
stated that he and his family will after Sat
urday next be the guests of Secretary Fish
until April, when they will visit Galena.
REoKoNED WITHOUT THEIR HOST.
Regarding the statement that he intended
to resign and permit the president of the
senate to gil the vacancy, he said he had
no knowledge of such an arrangement OK.
cept from the newspapers.
NO MORE TRoop5.
He says it is not his present intention 10
order more troops to Washington, but If
needed he will give the necessary instruc-
tions. He thinks, however, there will be
no necessity for such a step.
he WILL NOT RECOGNIZE ANY GOVERNOR.
Neither of the state governments in
Louisiana and South Carolina will be rec
ognized by President Grant, as he thinks it
would be improper for him to fix a south
ern policy for his successor and thus en-
barrass him. If he were to recognize the
republican governors they would have to
be sustained by military force. and he
thinks the entire people are tired of the
military being employed to sustain state
government. If the republican state gov
eminent cannot sustain itself it will have
to give way. If a remedy is required let
congress and not The president provide it.
wAsHINGToN's BIRTHDAY.
Regarding his recent order prohibiting a
military demonstration in Charleston, the
president said: My proclamation hereto
fore issued, commanding all illegal or un-
authorized armed associations to disband,
is still in force. The men who were going
to parade were nothing but armed political
bands. They have never respected the
proclamation, and only seemingly disband-
ed. 1 must say that, while l believe the
democratic leaders would have done all
that was possible to prevent an outbreak,
yet on an occasion of that kind men some
times indulge too much in strong drink,
and while under its influence might 60 ex-
press themselves against their political op-
porentu as possibly TO provoke retaliation,
and thus incite riot with serious if not fatal
consequences, and which disturbance
might extend to other localities. There
fore, entirely apart from the propriety of
observing the day, it was thought better
that military demonstration should be
prevented for the reasons stated rather than
run the risk Of a riot.
POINTS OF DIPLOMACY.
On measures of administration, both
foreign and domestic, it seemed to be
a pleasing reflection to the president that
now, on the eve of his retirement from
office, the United States are at peace with
all the world. The treaty of Washington
by which the so called Alabama claims
were satisfied and the settlement of all dis
putes with Spain culuir a.ing In The extra
didon uelty are the two most prominent
features Of diplomacy. He, however,
thought that the financial policy of the
administration was equally successful. He
expressed some regret that there would moi
be time in congress 10 act on his recent
recommendation which would facilitate the
resumption of specie payments. 1t has
been stated that he intended to send vale
dctory message to congress. 1t can be
stated on the authority of the president
himself that he has no such intention
