FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 2. 1871

Elk Secretary OF State Fish, MIR. Wendell
Phillips, and several northern newspapers arc
now engaged in controversy respecting ques'
ton of veraciiy raised by ex-Presidcnt Grant
between himself and tn. late Senator Sumner.
AS Gen. Grant is alive, prosperous, and PROB
able candidate for the next Presidency, he hiss
c,ond of witnesses TO substaniate each amt every
one Of his averments, and Mr.. Fish IL so ex-
tremey anxious to preserve what little reprta-
ton the TX President has left. that. 10 his efforts
TO effect that difficult purpose, he even acknowl-
edged that he, Fish, on ono occasion was guilty
of 40 indiscretion-that OF otfailDg MIR. Sum
nor the British mission ; aud political
mistake is generally considered to be eqn.Va-
lent 10 A crime. With all his witnesses. how
ever, and with all their willingness to sutfer
iu order that lie may appear as true
mao, they cannot shake the belief OF the public,
that is that portion oil it at all interested 10 the
matter, in the unsupported words OF the man

turned. The treatment lie received there was
hospitable, but not exceptionally SO, and would
have been extended to him in any town III the
State he might have visited, though probably it
would not have been witnessed by so many spec
tators. The people Of Virginia were Union low,
ing up to the brcakiog out of the civil war, arc
Union loving nov, and would have been SO lmme-
diately after the war if policy similar to that OF
President Hayes had been adopted toward them.
They arc naturally hospitable, and coustqueot-
ly assume 10 credit for being so, but feeling
thankful TO the President for the sensible meas
urcs that have produced peace, and that will
produce prosperity, Throughout all the section
to which they, socially as we'll as geographically,
belong, they take delisht in manifestlng their
gratitude, and, in his case, look upon the hospi
taIily they show him 10 the light OF grace,
that blesses alike the piver and receiver.

TO OUR LADY READERS.

Let US tell you what reached our desk
this week. A magazine which sup
plies information Oh every article a Ia
dy or child can wish to wear, from the
sole of her feet to the top of her head.
Each article is richly illustrated; TN
derneath stands the description, with
the number of yards it takes to make
1t; and then comes the price at which
you can purchase it. All classes are
provided for. The wealthiest and the
least Wealthy-:.ll can find qualities
suited to their means. Interviewed be-
tween the Fashion description we find
page after page of original reading
matter; not such as overloads so many
publications, tut bright, suggestive,
instructive contributions, by our best
lady writer's, on subjects i'll which eve
ry sensible woman takes pleasure and
interest. 1.-THE Kitchen,'' 1.-The
Home" 1.-The Cultivation of Beauty,r
The Education of Children," 1.-The
art Of Disseminating" etc., etc. all are
standard articles OH standard subjects.
Now, when we say, further, that this
magazine, a monster volume of l16
pages, is only the ''$pring" number of
Il publication which costs but SO cents
for a whole years subscription, our

er it somewhat remarkable. It is pub

met great demand of ladies who live
away from the great metropolis, and
yet are eager to learn of the vagaries
