The Hard Work he Does Upon it-A
Letter Frcm the General.
A New York despatch states that General
Grant has done much toward completing
his book during bis conyalescence, and ex
poets to finish it within the next few days.
The first volume is written and revised.
Only about 100 pages are needed TO COM
plete the second, though only portion of
it has been revised. The story of Lees sur
render was finished Tuesday and revised.
The generals connection with Lincolns
assassination has been related He writes
little himself, but dictates to stenographer.
Not only Is his mind clear, but the story as
he dictates is lucid and requires but little
revision. His daily average is about 80
pages, and the work apparently fatigues him
little if any.
General Grant sent the following letter TO
his publishers
New YORK, May 2, 1856.

Dear s,-My attention has been called
to paragraph 10 letter published in the
World newspaper of this city, of Wednesday.
AAPAlA @ot Va WAASu LhO iVHOWlD& 10 d part
1.-The work upon his new book, about
which SO much has been said, is the work of
General Adam Ba6eau. General Grant, /
have no doubt, has furnished all Of the ma
terial and all of the ideas in the memoirs as
far as they have been prepared, but Badeau
has done the work of composition. The
most that General Grant has done upon this
book has been to prepare the rough notes
and memoranda for its various chapters
will divide this into four parts, and an
swer each OF them. First--"The work upon
his book, abou. which so much has been
said, is the work of General Adam Badeau.n
This is false The composition is entirely
my own. SecoDd-"General Grant, have
ne doubt, has furnished all of the material,
and all the ideas in the memoirs,
as far as they have been prepared
This is true. Third-"But Badeau has done
the work of composition The composition
is entirely my own. Fourth-'The most
that General Grant has done upon this book
has been to prepare the rough notes and
memoranda for its various chapters This
is false. l have not only prepared myself
whatever rough notes were made, but, as
above stated, have done the entire work of
composition and preparing notes, and no
one but myself has ever used one of such
notes in composition. You may take such
measures as you see fit to correct this report
which places me in the attitude of claiming
the authorship of book which did not
write, and is also injurious to you who are
publishing aud advertising such books as my
work. Yours truly,

sions of the administration is such that we
feel entirely certain that some reform is to
be introduced into the method of determin-

quite as important as that introduced into
the method of making up the public debt
statement. There of course will be men in
the community, SO blinded by prejudice, as
to characterize the change in the pension
boards as made for no higher purpose than
to fill the 'hungry and thirsty" Democracy.

The Democratic platform on the civil SER
vice question is explained by the following
paragraph from the Boston Post:
Republican oficeholders should CO. They may
be good men in themselves, but they represent a
bad party
Admitting all the Post says and taking in
to consideration all that has been done, no
other conclusion can be drawn than that the
basis of this long talked-of reform is to re-
move good men from posts of trust because
they belong to so-called bad party to make
room for bad men because they belong to a
so-called good party.

"An English Journalist" visiting this
country, expressing his surprise and sorrow
in the New York Times that the people here
do not love England. The only explanation
he can think of for this lack of affection Is
that Americans are jealous of his native
land. The Eng!ishman must think hard and
think of something else. The American
people are not jealous of England, first be-
cause the two counaries are not rivals and
second because the present condition of
England 10 such IS to provoke pity rather
than envy.

Another Reform,

From time to time the PRESS has advert
ed to the noteworthy reforms which the Ad-
ministration has been making in this cor
rlption honeycombed government of ours.
It has duly chronicled the fact that the
President eats his breakfast at s o'clock in
the morning, which is half an hour or less
earlier than other Presidents have done since
the days of Jeffersonian simplicity. 1t has
recorded, we believe, with proper soemnity,
the fact that the President has snapped all
the Official banged tailed horses for long
tailed horses; that he has saved the country
as much as $2500 year by discharging a
few clerks whom he thought he could get
along without at the White House; that he
has introduced system of electrical cali
bells in the executive mansion; and that he
has discovered up in New York village
rascslly postmaster, who did not pay SO close
attention to his Office as he ought, and whom
he summarily elected, accompanying the re-
nova, with letter calculated to excite the
admiration of the country at the minuteness
Of inspection which the President was max
ing of the offices. This brilliant galaxy of
achievements in the way of purifying the
government and bringing it back to the days
of Jefersc MAN simplicity when horses tails
were not banged 1T is clear to see has aroused
the widest enthusiasm among the reformers
OF the country. There has been at times, to
be sure, dimming of the lustre of these
achievements by the appointment of such
men as Higgins, whom the civil service re-
formers of Baltimore denounced as ballot
box suffer and political hummer, and Tabu-
lator Chase, but it has been only temporary,
forit has been quickly shown that the Presi-
dent was deceived by some wicked Demo-
cratic congressman like Patrick A. Collins,
and therefore was not in the slightest
degree to blame. OF conrse the full
light Of the reform luminary now shut up in
the White House has not yet fallen upon
our benighted country. Its full effalgence
would be too dazzling. It is allowed to es-
cape by degrees, SO that the eyes of the peo-
pie may become accustomed to it gradually.
Within the past fortnight new ray has
been emitted. The administration has de-
creed that Democratic doctors shall eonsti-
tute the majority of all boards of pension ex-
stniners. At first glance this does not look
like reform perhaps, for the work Of deter
mining the nature and extent of physics
disability would seem to be SO remote from
politics that the Office of pension examiner
might properly be consigned to the category
mentioned in Mr.. Cleveland's letter as not
requiring to be filed by men in sympathy
with the administration. The fact doub.-
less is. however, that the administration
Ia about to introduce new departure in
medical science and fears that doctors who
are not political sympathizers may be dis
posed to look coldly upon it. Our conf
dsnee in the sincerity Of the reform profess

In Washington next week, according to the

5000 majority, is already there; Judge Red
man is on his way, and the Hon. ]. P. Bass
and the Hon. Nathan Cleaves will start in
few days. Gen. Harris M. Plaisted is also
expected. When all of them arrive con-
sultation will be held for the purpose of de-
vising some scheme for the publication of

ably bear that letter in favor of Mr.. Brab-
