THE ARMY BANQUET.
Gen. Grants Remarks.

CHICAGO. November IA. Six hundred GOV
ers were spread at the banquet of the Arm,
of the Tennessee. Every chair was occupied
The bill of fare was printed on a card shaped
into the likeness of tent, adorned with bat
tie scenes.
To toast first, 'Our country, her place
among nations" General Grant responded
He said 1--WE have been in the habit OF
looking upon ourselves as one of the first
nations of the earth. We are beginning to
be regarded little by other powers as we in
our vanity regard ourselves. | think we
have all the elements that go to make us a
great nationality. We have strength, the
individual self-controllng independence, and
to greater degree than almost any other
nation, the power to colonize, and settle up
new countries; and then we also have a very
great advantage in being without neighbors
to modest and make us afraid.
True, we have Northern frontiers and
Southern frontiers, and we get along with a
very small army, keeping no standing army
and what little we have is not standing
army, because it has no time to stand.
can only add in the way of advice, let us be
true to ourselves, avoid all bitterness and i'll
feeling, either on the part of sections or par
ties toward each other, and we need have no
fear in the future of maintaining the standing
we have among nations, so far as opposition
from foreign nations goes" Applause)
