the surviving Veterans of the 21st
Ills. Vol. Infantry. to mark the spot
where their Col. Ulysses s. Grant. re-
ceived his commission as General in
1861, and parting from his regiment,
entered on his career of victory. Let
US have peace" She said it was very
beautiful. and several times expressed
her thankfulness, and warm apprecia-
ton of the act of the people in erect
ing so elegant work of art to the
Generals memory.
The inspection being over, the party
returned to the residence, where an ell
egant, but informal lunch was served.
| A beautiful pencil drawing of the
| ssGrant Oak" the spring, and the mon
ument etc., was presented to Mrs.
| Grant.
| The party then re-entered their car
| riages aud drove to Gen1 Turner's
residence. in Arcadia where they spent
a delightful half hour, then took their
special train at the Arcadia depot at
$50 P. NJ. and departed for St. Louis.
| Mrs. Grant and Col. Grant left ST.
Louis for New York Tuesday A. NJ.
Mrs. Grant expressed herself as hav-
ing spent the most delightful day in
Arcadia Valley that she had enjoyed
for years.
The gentlemen of the party were all
charmed with the beauties of Arcadia
Valley, and predicted that ere many
years it must become the seat of scores
of beautiful and elegant Villas.
During the visit, swarms of children
were on Sylvan Lake grounds, and
they will long remember the smiles
and kind words of greeting which they
received from Mrs. Grant as she pass
ed so unaffectedly amongst them on
Judge Emerson's arm. Though near
her mental faculties, keen observation
and sweet temper and gentleness.
The grounds at Sylvan Lake were
we'll decorated with flags, and arch
ways over the gates contained numer
Gus small flags, and the memorable
words of Gen1. Grant, "Let us have
Peace"
Nearly all the houses and places of
business were we'll decorated with the
national ensign, which gave our town
quite holiday appearance.
NOTES.
Artist j. r. Hinchey was down from
De Soto with his camera, taking snaps
at Sylvan Lake during Mrs. Grant Wis
it. The day was little dark but we
hope he succeeded in getting some
thing good.
The Old Soldiers who fingered on
the grounds after the party had return
ed in the house after viewing the mon
ument, called out Col Grant for
speech. He came out on the veran-
dab, spoke briefly of the pleasure it
gave his mother and himself to visit
the spot where his father had received
his Commission as General and really
entered upon his broad field of nation
al action. He excused himself and
called on Gov. Fletcher who made a
pleasing address. SPECTATOR.

Mrs. Gen'l. Grants Visit.

For many years Mrs. Grant mas de-
sired to pay a visit to the General s
old Headquarters at Ironton where he
received his Commission as General in
1861, and entered upon his marvellous
career of military success. Corespon-
deuce with Col. Emerson last winter
resulted in her determination to make
the visit this spring on her way from
California to New York.
Ten days ago she reached st. Louis
where she has been visiting old friends
of her childhood-for she was born in
St. Louis county-and her oldest son,
Col. Frederick d. Grant was born
there, so he, too, is a Missourian.
Col. Grant came on from New York
to meet his mother. a special train was
generously rendered Mrs. Grant and
party to make the trip to Ironton, and
they came on Monday.
The party was a small one, but very
select, consisting of Mrs. Genl. U. 5.
Grant, Col. Frederick D. Grant, Mrs.
Anna Harris O'Falleu, James j. ORAL
len, Major John 3. Harlow, late Post
master, St. Louis, Col. Nelson Cole,
Col. Charles Parsons, President of the
State Bank, St. Louis, Col. j. D. Bing-
ham, U. S. Army; G. S. Bingham, 1st
1t. 9th Cavalry q. S. Army; Col. j. w.
Churchill, late U. S. Collector, St.
Louis; Gen1. j. w. Turner. Capt. w.
r. Hodges, and Col. Thos. c. Fletcher
now of Washington. D. G.
The party was met at the lronton
depot by Judge Emerson with car
riages, and escorted to to the Sylvan
Lake grounds where the Grant mOnu-
ment stands.
After few minutes spent at toilets
at the residence, the party visited the
spring where the General had so often
drank while here eneanped in 1861.
Mrs. Grant and Col. Grant drank at
the spring, and sho was greatly pleas
ed at reading the words engraved on
the Granite block over the spring:
"Thither an embryo hero came,
He drank, departed, conquered
She repeated it several times during
the afternoon and said it was one OF
the most beautiful expressions about
the General that she had ever seen or
heard. She put her hands 90 the BODY
of the oak under which he bad receive
ed his commission, with manifesto
ton of reverence, pausing to look at it
and its wlde-spreading branches.
Leaning on Col. Emsrson's arm, she
climbed into the pagoda. to look Of tho
Ssh and the sparkling lakelets. then
walked around the oak, and Col. Grant
read for her the tablet marking the
exact spot where her great husband
was sitting at an old table under the
oak when the dispatches were deliver
ed to him containing his commission
as General. She plucked a spruce bongh

The testimony of DR.. Bowen, the
Hawaiian correspondent of the New York
World, throws good deal OF light on
Blount's method of making an impartial
investigation. Some of the Hawaiin
papers had made statements intimating
that Bowen was intriguing on behalf OF
the Provisional government. These
statements without investigation were
made the basis of formal charge on
the part of Blount in his report that DR..
Bowen was an agent of the Provisional
government. with the effect of course,
of discrediting his letters to the New
York World Blount was exceedingly
ready to give credence to anything that
tended to support the Presidents policy
and break down the opposition, but his
ears were tightly shut against evidence
of the other kind. Casual newspaper
paragraphs were good enough basis for
a formal charge when they reflected on
the Provisional government, but when
prominent supporters of that govern
ment asked to be heard they were either
refused or their testimony was entirely
ignored.

THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 1.

II is difficult to see how Admiral BEN
ham could receive the surrender ol 'ne
rebe, Admiral Da Cana. Da Cana has not
baan making war upon US, but upon the
Brazilian government. If he offers to sur
render. to Admiral .Benham it is simply
because he feels that his cause Is lost'
and that he can save his head by placing
himself under the protection OF tne
I1nited States. Under these circumstance
as can Admiral Benham receive MS sur
render without practically interfering
between the existing Brazilian govern
ment and the rebels!

The number of Democrats in the House
who it is expected will vote against tne
Wilson bill with the income tax added is
thirty-six. New York will contribute
fourteen of the number, and the re-
mainder will be furnished by scattering
votes from New Jersey, Pennsylvania
and other state delegations. The present
House mum bers 352 members, exclusive
of four vacancies Of this number 2l5
ara Democrats, 1875 Republicans and IL
Populists. Deducting &c votes from the
Democratic column leaves 179 Democrats
in favor of the bill. Adding the 30 TO
the solid Republican column increases the
strength of the opposition to 161. AS
the 10 Populists will support the bill,
the total vote will show 191 for and l6l
against. 1t will be necessary, therefore,
that at least 50 Democrats join with the
Republicans in order to defeat the tarlff
bill, presuming, of course, that 352 mem
bers are in their seats when the Dill Is
put upon it's passage. This mum Der is
not likely to be obtained.

Precisely what has happened IN tne

spected. If any shots have been hreo Dy

If If has been confined within the limits
that the reports indicate, deserves Ohe
b;ohest commentator. The insurgents
have been for months past very careless
of the rights of neutrals, and have mar
assed our merchant vessels as Wen DIS

and it was high time that they were
made to understand that their course
was in defiance of the laws of nations
and would not be tolerated longer.

the tariff bill will produce. 1t is a part
of the Democratic plan of providing

if they can one of the legitimate conse-
quences of that bill, namely the payment
of tax on incomes. They want to
overthrow the Mckinley law, and they
are afraid that they may not be able to
do it so easily if it is apparent that one
of the consequences of that overthrow
will be tax on incomes. We should say
their own performances were much more
open to the charge of immortality, than
those of the income tax men, who are
willing to lay before the country the
whole programme of tariff reform, SO
the whole of it can be seen at once.
AS between he income tax and anti in
come tax wings of the Democracy the
former is the far more honest and open.
