1t was OIL the track he had marked out in
his travels. lie had considered it well and
had determined not to visit that locality be-
fore the town buighers met in solemn con-
claye and determined that they could not
receive him because he had insulted the
Holy Catholic Church by advocating free
schools in free America, where our children

his grave oilcnse, and this the provocntiOn
for Il bigotcd and needless snub that the

President GRANT had not the slightest in
tention of visiting that lide-boumd and in

Of n religious sect toward General GRANT,
