Information Given.

To the Public: A great deal has been
said in the newspapers recently about
General Malone and myself The
great questions that agitate the writers
are as to whether l want to be
Secretary of the Senate; and, if so,
whether General Malone will aid me
in securing it. AS the Republican
Senators have as yet expressed no prefer
ence for anybody for that place in the
event of being able to control the Senate,
it would seem rather premature for any
one to go in quest of single vote. But
as am not to blame for the foolish as
sumption that Senator Mahone's vote is
alone required to restore meto the position
named, so l am excusable for ridding N.Y.
self, once for all, of these annoying per-
sonal references to myself
therefore volunteer the following in
formation to all whom it may concern:
1. Although am well acquainted with
General Malone, and am personally his
friend, have never conversed or corre-
sponded with him in reference to the Of
fees of the Senate i'll general, or OF the
office of Secretary of the Senate in par
ticular. 1 have not, directly or indl-
rectly, in person or by others, sought or
eliciteda any expression from him as to how
he would vote in the Senate concerning
the office named or any other, and | do
not know what his course wlE2 in that
regard. shall not at any tirn$ hereafter
solicit his vote or that of any other
Senator for any office. l never have at
any time solicited q Senator's vote for
myself for election to or retention in of
flee, although served nearly eleven years
as Secretary of the Senate, during which
time two hundred Senators, less one, had
seats in that body.
II. 1t is also publicly stated that wish
to be elected Secretary of the Senate by
General Mahone's vote, although other
offices and the committees may remain
unchanged. To this 1 reply that should
consider myself unfaithful to the party to
which 1 belong were I willing to accept
Office under such circumstances.
In conclusion, wish to say that am
simply endeavoring to convince the
Republicans who will listen to me
that, if Independentism is thirty-two
thousand stronger in Virginia than
is Republicanism, and equally as re-
liable for all patriotic purposes, it would
be monumental folly for the Bourbons
to be aided by hopeless three-cornered
fight this year in State contest. If my
view should be adopted it might enlarge
the anti-Bourbon party in Virginia, to the
inconvenience of those who see in it only
the crumbs of Federal patronage and one
or two congressional districts; but it
would insure the colored people against
being remanded to the political slavery
from which General Malone and his sup
porters have emancipated them. Those
who prefer small party will Of course
cry loudly for the party name; but in my
opinion the time has come when the South
should go into the hands of all who have
proven themselves Jealous in main
tenance of the national authority and
the equal rights of citizens.

Blaine on Grant.

Mr.. Blaine has spoken directly to the
point in his interview with New York
Tribune correspondent upon the subject
of the Logan bill for placing General
Grant on the retired list. He opposes
any general legislation which would
make provision for all ex-Presidents, be-
cause he looks with disfavor on pen
sion list for civilian officers. When asked
what his reasons are for making dis
tinction for General Grant, he says
plumply and fairly:
Simply on the ground of fair plays The people
of the United States took General Grant from q
good life position and made him President. There
is in many cases a good deal of nonsense talked
about the Office seeking theman;" but in General
Grants case, at least for his first term, the Office
did seek the man. The people asked him to give
up his life position and serve them in an Office OF
short tenure; and l think now, on the ground ol
fair play and square dealing the people owe it to
General Grant to leave him in as good position
as they found him when they demanded that he
Should serve them as President.
This is about the fairest thing we have
yet heard said by any one outside of Gen
eral Grants immediate friends.
Many of us well remember how gloomy
things looked in 1867 and 1868, when the
and the detection of many strong men
under mistaken idea of what was really
best had divided the party in nearly
every State, while the Pendleton scheme
for paying the bonds in greenbacks was
undermining US among thousands of un-
rejecting people. There were no rivals
of Grant-no man wanted the Republican
nomination. The universal thought was
Grant alone can Win," while the pre-
vailing fear was that he might refuse to
accept. He struggled with himself long
and when he yielded to the general de-
mand it was to lead a forlorn hope, as
was thought, and to give up life posi-
tion.
Southern Democrats who are not hope
lessIy joined to idolatry of the Lost
gan bill. They will realize the truth that
General Grants candidacy in 1868 was
not so much partisan as patriotic. He
led the party in opposition to the effort
then made to yindicate the confederate
cause. Northern Democrats, fresh from
the memories of the late campaign, are
excusable for not feeling equal to the
work.
Abiding to the question of General
Grants financial condition, Mr.. Blaine
secuted the idea of dealing with the sub
ject as one would deal with charity. He
said:
Whether General Grant be worth a million, or
only q thousand, has nothing to do with it. Ifthe
Nation owes anything to General Grant it has no
right to inquire into his circumstances as a pre-
Iiminary to payment 1 think it in very bad taste
to be making an inventory of General Grants
property, or to be discussing in any way his fnan-
cial condition. That belongs to him as a private
gentleman and is not matter for public discussion.
Mr. Blaine has spoken the right words,
as General Logan did the right thing in
Introducing his bill. We hope the latter
will be sustained by the great body of
the Senate in pressing the measure to
early consideration.

High Old Art.

On the day when the gums fired their heaviest
charges at the recent trial of Her MaeSys ship In
flexible, the Chevalier de Martino an Italian
naval officer long resident in England and cele-
brated as artist for his historic paintings repre-
senting the battle of Trafalgar, was on board the
stcam-tug which was in attendance on the iron
clad. The weather was extremely rough, but the
Cheyalier was anxious to make sundry sketches of
the ship from a moderate distance, and effected
his object by being lashed to the bridge of the
steam-tug as she lay off from the Inaexible. From
this effective point of view, with the spray dashng
over him, the artist succeeded in taking rough
sketches of the big ship as she steamed rapidly
through the waves and fired her enormous guns.
