How Grant Ran.


union of the Army of the Cumberland
at Utica, n. V. at which President
Grant, General Sherman, General
Hooker, General SlOcum and Governor
Seymour We're present.
Long and loud cries arose for Grant.
Grant,! who, slowly rising from his
chair, expressed his pleasure at being
with his friends, but his dislike at
being asked to speak, and his diffidence
in doing SO.
But there are those" he added, dry
ly, and pointing to Sherman and 9TH
ers, "who are not troubled with any
sort of diffidence."
The three generals present made
witty, telling speeches. and then arose
cries for Seymour! Seymour
The Governor, who had been the de-
feated Democratic candidate against
Grant for the Presidency in 1868, came
forward and said:
Il think l have some sOldierly traits
myself; at all events, General Grant.
YOU must acknowledge that in IA little
contest you and had a few years ago
YOU ran great deal better and farther
than did"
This telling allusiOn to the Presiden.
tial contest brought down the house.
Gen Grant, cOnvulsed with laughter,
rose and bowed his Acknowledgements.

THERE is an ancient superstition
that advertising should shrink in. a
presidential year. Nobody can give a
better reason for the falling off than
the vague explanation that the I'M
certainties of political campaign
upsettle business. Whether this rea-
sdning was sound in the past or not,
lone thing is clear, it will make little.
|if any, difference In the advertising
business Of this season. General
|agents are in a position to know what
the feeling is among the advertisers.
Although the dull month of June is
rather early for predictions, most
cheerful and hopeful spirit prevails.

his ultimate design. Through a small
