General GRANT has talk with a Wash
ington correspondent Of the New York
Graphic. This we copy into our paper this
morning. The President sees through a
glass darkly" some things, one Of which is
the disintegration and reforming Of parties.
In the process he confesses, in effect,
that the Radical party is to be swallowed
up, and in that he is right. The President
INDUCES in some slip-shod coniectures
which have grain Of probability here and
there, but which need method in their ar.
rangement.
General GRANT seems to be mischievously
facetious when ne remarks that the south
ern States presented united front when
"permitted to act unrestrained by the in.
"terposition Of IegaHy-conStituted author.

White House since ABE LINCoLN's day.

In the accounts OF the opening Of the
congressional proceeding Of counting the

scribed as being conspieuously seated, his
rotund form lolling in great armed chair
near the Speakers chair-a bold position
for one who must be generally looked upon
as very corruptand shameless man. Near
him were the old sinner CAMERON, Of Penn
sylyania, and his son Don, who, as auxiliary
to CHANDLER in the late daring exploit Of
the Federal Executive by which States were
forced to reverse their votes for President,
showed THAT he had great aptitude. and may.
