DEPEw's LETTER.
The Talk it Caused on the Street Yes
terday.

The Talk It Caused ON the Street Yea
terday.
Chauncey NJ. Depew's open letter to Col
Fred Grant, published in the NEWS yes
ferday morning. was the su bject of consld-
cradle interesting gossip in the city dur
ing the day.
The veterans, who returned to their
Southern homes at the close OF the war,
recalled the state of affairs twenty years
ago. No sooner was johnson Inaugural
ted President than he began to raise
great cry and declare that the leaders o.
the COnederacy should be summary
punished. He seemed TO ent' rtaIn the
greatest animosity to~ the West Point
men who mad left the regular service at
the outburst of the war and fought for The
South. The harsh expressions OF the new
President caused CONSERVATION anon
the dlsbanded Confederates. Gen. Lee
and Gen. nhnston had both been assured
by Grant and Sherman, respectively, thai
the remnants of their armies and their
people would be protected il the latter &C
eepted the situation.
at was a matter Of common fNport that
President Johnson did not propose to
stand by the terms which Generals Lee
and Johnston had accepted" said an ex-
General.
sit was also reported that Gen. Grant
prevented the President from carrying out
his plans" IL was believed at the time,
as Depew reports Grant TO have said, that
1t was his (Grant's) threat that he would
drive Congress out OF the capitol with the
army which alone restrained johnson.
Grant had pledged HE word OF honor that
the South would not be further molpsted.
Johnson and Grant were both stubborn
men. but the former, even though seated
In the presidential chair and possessed OF
the Etle of oOmmander-in-chief OF the
Hrmv, hesitated about dlsregarding the
threat OF the commanding General.
As a gentleman remarked Yesterday, 1t
would have been a very dangerous step
for johnson 10 have attempted anything
contrary to Grants terms. Grant had
the army at his back, and he could. no
doubt, have given the capitol over 10
loyal senators and Congressman, and
have protected them. ANY violation by
the President Of the terms Of surrender
would have eaused a disastrous guerrilla
warfare, and Grant foresaw II. That part
Of Depew's letter which refers 90 the
fattery 81 the President by "the leaders
Of tie old Rdalisyn,. is generally pro-
bounced ''sruf."

? The magnitude Of our new quarters is a
surprise to great numbers OF callers VINO
have honored us with visit, and the ele-
gance OF our stock has certainly proven a
revelation. We must be pardoned for in
dulging in little self-praIse, but We think
we are justified in expressing our salts
faction with our surroundings.
We have said a good deal about our
stock Of Gents, Youths, and Children's
Clothing, and have satisfied every one thai
our claims are correct, so we can afford
TO drop the Clothing matter for a while,
and take up another branch OF the bust
ness.
We refer 70 our HAT DEPARTMENT.
There are as many tricks In the Hat trade
as in any other-resorted 10 by dealers and
manufacturers who are afraid to rely
solely on merit. The name OF a fashion
able or popular halter in hat adds from
ST 10 81 % TO its cost. The hat, for in
stance, that has Youmans' or Knox's
name stamped In IL, will cost a s. bill
We will sell You the self-same hat lgubOU,
the valuable y name in IL for consider
ably less. Tue same with all OF our Fur
nishing Goods. We sell you the article
itself, without making you pay for a name
or reputation that adds nothing 10 the
wearing qualities OF such articles.
Our Clothing Is OF so varied qualii Y
that any body can get suited. from the very
finest goods suitable for those who have
been accustomed u patrOnizlng merchant
tailoring establishments and paying fancy
prices, to medium goods for people 0i
moderate means--every piece OF material
selected, however. with view TO genteel
appearance and substantial worth.
Our Underwear, Neckwear and Fur
nishing Departments are rich In novelties,
and al prices that will meet every pockel
and taste. 10 is almost needless 20 add, IN
general way, that while our prices
throughout mGy often be lOleer, they will
be always found as low as those OF any
house in the trade. We don't ask you "a
take what we say without qualification.
50 call and let us prove ourselves. i6l

A suit against Mr.. z. G. Gleason before

some very amusing evidence on the ills
that horse flesh Is heir to. Some time ago

Messrs. Joyce & Hunt for S75. They gave
a promiesOry note for four months in pay
ment. After keeping the horse little
over two months the firm wanted 30 re-
urn the horse and aunul the SALE The
note bad been discounted, and not being
paid VIXEN due, the holder brought suit
aud recovered the face value of the note.
Messrs. Joyce & Hunt then sued Mr.
Gleason to recover about $40. An impor-
tant point in the case was whether the
horse was permanently diseased when
sold 10 Joyce & Hunt. One Of the wit
nesses. a "horse doctor" said that 1t was
not. The case was very lengthy. and was
finally decided in favor OF the defendant.
