SENATOR VEST has lately been writing =
letter to n meeting of cS.Confedcrates in
Missouri, As represented, he says, "he
thought the tears and sorrow of the South
at the shooting of Garfield would remove
the malice and suspicion entertained by tho
North, and is disappointed that such has
not been the case, To illustrate, he quotes
from Gen. Grants recent uttcranccs that
pensions must be paid to none but Uricn
soldiers and asks what drug can have
so changed the speaker since his words ut
Cairo and bloomington, when he paid q
tribute to the present devotion to their
country of those who wore the gray. The
language of Grant is an insinuation OF the
bascst sort, for the ex.Confedcrates have
neither asked nor thought Of pensions" "
There appears TO be something involved
in this, but the interpreter is evidently at
fault. The statement of the case can be
simply put. Mr.. Vest never meant to i'm.
ply that the Confcderatcs wanted to run
their arms in the Pension Bureau, and Gen.
Grant knows they don't. Let us pass on to
something fresh
