New YORK. May 19.
The following is General Grants letter to
Senator Jones of Nevada:
CITY OF MEXICO, ApriI24.
Ny Dear SENATOR see by the latest dispatches
received here from the Capitol that the dead lock in
organizing the senate has not yet been broken and
that nothing been by the President allay
the bitterness which must be engendered by his most
recent appointments When the first batch of
nominations for New York sent in I delight
ed believed the President had determined to re-
cognize the Republican party and not faction: but
his nominations of next day convinced me that the
first act was but part of a
DEEP LAID SCHEME
by somebody to punish prominent leaders for being
openly friendly l cannot believe that Gar
field is the author of this policy. give him credit
for being too big to descend to such means for
the punishment OF men who gave him hearty support
in his election, and who are disposed to give
him the same support now for the offence OF having
ces which he now holds. But Garfield is president
AND is RESPONSIBLE
for all acts of the administration
ConkIing and Plat the chosen senators from
the Great State of New York and that too against
all opposition of the administration, created by the
same party that elected them. This should give
them all the stronger claim to be consulted in mat
ters of appointments in their state. When it comes
to filling the most influential Office in their state
without consulting these senators it is great
slight, and when he selected the most offensive man
TO be found "a
BECOMES INSULT,
and ought to be resented to the bitter end
l sincerely hopes the president will see this and
correct his mistake himself and restore harmony to
himself and TO those without whom he could not
have been elected. Nobody believed he could have
carried the state of New York without the active sup
port of her present senators their passive support
would not have answered.
Without the state of New York Garfield would
not now be President. His rewardng Robertson is
not only offensive TO the New York senator's but it
is offensive to New York Republicans.
The charge of Badeau and Cramer, the two ap
pointments in which felt strong personal inter
est, was
VERY D1sTAsTEFUL TO ME.
First-Because our personol relations and my
wish that he should be kept where his Office
would support him until he finishes
some work which he is engaged upon,
and which he could do without interfering with his
public duties.
Second-Because it at the expense of remov-
ing son of my old secretary of state who probably
never had his superior, certainly never for moral
WORTH in the department.. 1t is true Fish resigned
but he did this from of honor, supposing it
to be the duty of the representatives abroad give
the administration an opportunity of saying
whether they wanted or not.
Very truly yours,
