GEN. GRANTS PREFACE.

Public of His Memoirs.

Special to the Commercial Gazette.
NEW YORK, July THE following is
the full preface to Gen. Grants forth
coming book:
"'Man proposes and God disposes'
There are but few important events in
the affairs of men brought about by
their own choice
although frequently urged by friends
to write my memoirs, had determined
never to do so, nor to write anything
for publication. At the age of-62 1 re-
ceived an injury from fall, which cons
fined me closely to the house while it
did not apparently affect my general
health. This made study a pleasant
pastime. Shortly after, the rascality of
a business partner developed itself by
the announcement of a failure. This
was followed soon after by universal de-
preston of all securities which seemed
to threaten extinction of good part OF
the income still retained. and for which
[ am indebted to the kindly acts of
friends. At this juncture, the editor of
the Century Magazine asked me to write
few articles for him. l consented for
the money it gave me. for at that mo-
ment l was living on borrowed money.
The work found congenial and l de-
termined TO continue it. The event is
an important one for me, for good or
evil; l hope for the former. In prepa+
ring these volumes for the public, have
entered upon the task with the sincere
desire to- avoid injustice to any one,
whether on the National or Confederate
side, other than the unavoidable Unjust
ice of not making mention often where
special mention is due. There must be
many errors of omission in this work.
because the subject is too large to be
treated of in two volumes in such way
as to do justice to all the officers and
men engaged. There were thousands
Of instances during the Rebellion, of int
diVidual, company, regimental and brig
cial mention, and are not here alluded
to. The troops engaged in them will
have to look to the detailed reports of
their individual commanders for the full
history of those deeds. The first volume,
as well as portion of the second, was
written before had reason to suppose
was in critical condition of health.
Later / was reduced almost to the point
of death. and it became impossible for
me to attend to anything for weeks. l
have however regained somewhat of my
strength and am able often to devote as
many hours day as person should
devote 10 such work. l would have
more hope of satisfying the expectation
of the public if could have allowed N.Y.
self more time. l have used my best
efforts, with the aid of my eldest son,
f. d. Grant, assisted by his brothers, to
verify from the records every statement
of fact given. The comments are my
own, and show how 1 saw the matters
treated of, whether others saw them in
the same light or not. With these re-
marks l present these volumes to the
public asking no favor, but hoping they
will meet the approval of the reader.

pie, baSing his calculations on the vote
on the liquor amendment two years ago
when 100000 votes were cast for a pro-
hibitery clause to the Constitution, is
reported as saying that the Prohibition
lists have a good fighting chance in the
present campaign. The vote, at that time
was purely reflection of public senti-
ment as between license and prohibition
A very large proportion of the voters
who voted for prohibition were Repub-
licans. Very many were Democrats.
And many of both parties did not vote
for either. All such.. perhaps, favored
the Scott law. The voters for license
and prohibition were in position to vote
for these measures independent of their
respective party tickets. Their votes
were cast in way that gave rise to a
hope, in the minds of each, of an imme-
diate practical result. This year, the
straight Republicans and Democrats who
voted for prohibition, seeing nothing in
a vote for Mr.. Leonard except jeopardy
to their respective tickets, will not vote
the prohibition ticket. If DR.. Leonard
Will turn his attention toward getting
some decisive measure before the people
he can depend upon very large and
direct vote upon the liquor question.
His idea is to cripple the Republican
party, until it consents tn take up pro-
hibitiOn. When that time comes, the
other party will prevail, and, prevailing,
must adopt license. Is it not better to
regulate and restrain the traffic by
revenue law, in places where local pro-
hibitOry ordinances cannot be enforced.
than to risk the adoption of a license
clause in the Constitution? There is
very little prospect of judiclous legisla-
tion under license clause. That has
been tried. 1t proved a failure. And
that is why there is no license clause in
the Constitution now. The next prac-
tical measure is taxation for regulation
and restraint and to assist the common
taxpayer in bearing the heavy burden
imposed by the excessive use of intoxi-
eating liquor as beverage. When there
is reason to believe that prohibition, or
attempts to establish prohibition, will
answer better than taxation, and give
promise of becoming a measure that
may be enforced, more than 100000
voters will take pleasure in voting for
of the temper and ability of
DR.. Leonard, and not till then.-CoIum-
bus Dispatch.

We are sometimes forced to believe
that farmers and their families miss
more of the poetry of life than they need
to, and what they will permit themselves
to enjoy is often kind of machine POI
etry that is ground out. With some al-
most amounting to quilting feeling
that they must not indulge in enjoying
anything for the pleasure it brings them
unless they can also turn it 10 advantage
in bringing some reward in worldly gain.

The stern realities of life we have mostly

blended as to make life more complete?
Though it may devolve upon the far
mers to furnish the natiou's bread and
the nations brains, let them not entirely
neglect the social part of their natures,
nor their duty in contributing to the
welfare and happiness of those about
them. Let them at times send forth
glad songs in word or deed to cheer the
hearts of others, and at all times en-
deavor to be ready to enjoy life's bless
ings together with its tolls and cares
Rest is oft-times more profitable than
labor, for with an over-taxed body, a
tagging energy and a weary brain, the
capacity for doing or enjoying is weak

blights their own happiness and depIives
them of the power of contributing to the
happiness and welfare of these about
