Laramie Times. The c~itizensof Chey-
enne gave Gen. Grant an impromptu
reception on Monday that passed of In
a very creditable manncr. There are
no more public spirited men In the
whole western country than those Of
Cheyenne, and when they attempt TO
do n thing II Is carried through In n
style that Is not only n credit to them
selves but to the whole territory. One
thing we noticed in particular In the
report Of the affair, and that was the
Insignificant part taken by Wyoming's
governor, which in our opinion &C.
counts for its success. Had the COVER
nor taken an active part 1t would doubt
less have been n failure, and the citi-
e OF Cheyenne would again have
been placed In the mortifying position
that they were when Grant last visited
them.
