vide difference between that snd a
stat msne that Grant will not DO . con.
tee,aos for tho Presidency. Hslstss1
says that he is not called upon to verify
report said To be traced to him, that
be said thst George " Childs told him
thss he bad letter from General Grant
declining 70 be- q candidate for the
Presidency. There is no question Of
yerscity between Mr. Halls, esd ard NJ
Childs, for Mr. Childs never said soy
thing Of this sort. and Mr. Halstead
never said he did. Mr. Da,stead says,
further, that be VAS informed 10 Phila-
deIphis that there would DO authority
for IT that Grant was not candidate,
and must not be pressed to contest a.
such. an.i that the authorization would
be distinct. The declaration would be
decisive and maize in good time. He
has not understood that this statement

trouble has been taken within . few
days IN deny something that has never
be~n charged.
