gentleman who had q conversation with Gen.
Grant, quite recently, says that 1.-THE ex-Presdent
considers Gen John A. Logan as the most avail
able candidate OF all those named, and one whom
he would not only support himself, but candidate
whom he would ask all his friends to support. He
remarked that he had known Logan from the be-
ginning OF the war, and he could testify that he
possessed the ability, courage, obedience and
endurance OF the citizen soldier OF our great
country TO as eminent a degree as the most dis
ungulshed on its brilliant roll In public affairs
ne said, Logan has the courage OF his convictions
ne asserts the integrity OF his character even in
nus own political matters, and that could not
always pc said OF men in political life; and In
private life, he added, there Is not a man, 10 my
knoWiedge, who stands out SO notably the type
OF honesty OF purpose, simplicity OF life and virtue
Inc genera! further observed that there were
otnelS also who would NIL the office with great
aOllty, men like EdmundS~ OF Vermont; but
his idea seemed TO be that Logan was more a man
OF the people. 1t was evident that there were
those whom the e1-PresidenJ thought It would
pesulcldal TO nominate, and who In fact would
not receive bis support. He did not wish TO be
specific, but could only say that it might be wiser
lOr the nominations TO regard the harmony OF the
