Mr. John NJ Carson of the Philadrl-
plia Lc'Igcr furnishes the following in
tCrcstiug history of General Grant during
the four years he spent at West Point as
Il cadet
There is one period of General Grants
life about which very little is known to
the general public, although every act
of his during that period is borne upon
the public records, and that is the period
of his cadet life ut West Point, which i.
included in the four years between July
!, lSNI, and July /, 1873. Grants life nt
West Point did not differ from that of
iIcaycragc cadet who preceded and who
have followed him.
\ publication recently made in relation
to the general class and conduct standing
of Grant when at West Point unirlstlv
represented that he was noted ns am
indifferent student, aud that his stand.
ing on the conduct roll was such that
he ON Y escaped dismissal by few units.
This statement led your correspondent,
during Il recent visit to West Point. 10
examine the record of the class of 1913,
in which General Grant graduated. with
II view of aSrcrtanng the fnrts in re-
lntion To the cadet history of the most
distinguished alumnis Of the Military
Academy.
The result of this examination of the
official records of the Military Academy
enables me not only to correct the mis-
statements touching the cadet life of
General Grant, but to furnish some facts
i'll this connection that cannot fail to br
particularly interesting at this time.
Ulysses ;. Grant was appointed to the
Military Academy from the State of Ohio
in 1859, being ON the date Of his admis-
sion, July | of that year, Il years and

! tol, lifting it,, white dome into the upprr
blue puncturcd the solidity Of one grand
Republic, rescued ont Of the thrurS Of
rebellion. How often have the halls and
plrlor~ of that historic brick mansion
"rh"cd to tlir tread of gallant soldiers, fair
women and budding youth, while under
tn" sparkling light of chandeliers, music,
song and dance prevailed, when the
heart forgot ila cares and the sulI com
munrd with the sparkling stars that
,Slonc on the velvet lawn.
S!~lcral Grant retired to the Douglas
mansion II short time before he became
President. and left with regret the cool
heights where his family had spent 80
many golden hours.
MIR. FAINT, the banker resided in the
mansion for some time with his interest
ing family. GaSrcll, the handsome Src-
r"tary of the British Legation, held III"
house for "A couple of years. and the late
Thomas l.. Hume had control of il for
awhile
About ten yvals ago Colonel John \
Joyce, of Il. Louis, purchased the estate
for his family, and has resided there ever
since. Birthday parties balls, germans
and receptions, for young and old. have
the hospitality invariably
extended by the various occupants.
From thi, spot can be seen the Catholic
and tn" convent, the Weaver.
Marbury, Dougll, Bodisco, Kcnnan and
linthicum mansions, and over all can hr
seen the site Of the National ObScrva-
tory and th" splendid now residence Of
james tlv"rS"n, of Philml"lphia sitting
lik" queen over th" romantic dclls of
Rock creek. In fact, the eye can survey
more than a circle Of fifteen miles over
valley river and hill, us they stretch

National Republican., 1885-08-09

| The first two years are known as the
most trying Of the academic term, fact
which Is attcslcd 10y the large number of
casualties occurring during those two
| years. The fact that mt the end of the
| first year Grant stool above the middle
of his class, indicates that he waS not an
indifferent student, aud his advancement
the two years following would indicate at
least fair degree of diligence and appl-
cation. Upon graduation, his number on
the conduct roll was l5G, the membership
of the corps being 223, and the amount
of Grants "dcmcril" being GG.
These facts establish beyond conlro-
r"rSy that the dipalTgng statements
printed from time to time ptuuching iTnt's
standing while II cadet at West Point are
without any foundation whatever. OF
those who served with Grant in the Corps
of Cadets II large number rose to high
rank in the army, and distinguished

When Grant entered the Academy Gen
erals sherman, Van Nlict and Getty, of
the Federal army, and Ewcll Of the Con.
irdcruc side, were frst.rlasS men, Cen
erals Wright John +. Reynolds, Lyon
Buell., Buforl, and Sully, of the Union
side, and GarnCtt, of the confederate side
were in the second class The third class
contained Rosrcmns. Pope, Dana, Double

and ON Confederate side, Lowell u. II.

by the way graduated No. - in class Of
56 members. OF tho3C who served in
classes behind that Of General Grant. and
who have achieved distinction in the
military service, find in the class which
entered in lSlO, and which graduated but
