liEXEItAL GRANT. Referring to presidential matters, 31r. Wrnlp s.niil it liml l.lll nil tn him P, ,r. n . past as if the republican party wou'il take fimnr. m. r.ir nrMlnt n.wf 1 I" 1 ü i Li with a hurrah. He sorry to sce that disposition, and believed no p- .od would come of it. The trouble with Grant is." said he, il you don't know how he stands. It sterns singular that a man could have lived through this terrible civil war without identifying himself with any party, and that men pretending to be republi. cans .should try to ru-h him into the White IIou5e without asking him a single question as to where he utands on the preat issues now before t'ne country. .Still, I have felt it in my bones tint they would do that very thing." I akcd Mr. Wade if he had ever con versed with General Grant on political topic?. " I hare tried to do it," said he " but I ne,cr could bring him out. When I saw the popular current appearing to run in his lavor I thought I would like to know how l.c stood oq the great Questions before us whether he was for Johason or Congress or what the devil he was for: but I ! never could ret anything out of him. As ! 800n as I'd tnik politics he'd talk horses and j he could talk hours on that subject witliout getting tired. Well, horc arc very ood, but in those times a tnnn may be all rijrht on horses and all wrong on politics. Grant maybe all right for what I know, but then again, he aay be all wrontr. If he wants to be president by niy voice, and the voice of the men I act with, lie must not only Ic right, but he must prove that he i?." I inquired of Mr. Wade what proof hs would require from General Grant before he would support him as a presidential candidate. Would a lot to er indorsing the radical policj do? "iNo, it won't. Wc m-it have his word bac.'ied by some official act idiowing him to be in sympathy with us, and in favor of the doctrines we advocate. We won't take any man's word after what we have gone through. Grant must come out as a pronounce 1 republican or he can't get my support. 1 don't know that my support amounts '! much, but hat little there is will go iu the right direction AVAILAUII.II Y. " Now," sarI Mr. Wade, "it is verystrange that when men talk of availability they always mean something squinting to ward copperhcadism. They novfr think of consultiog the radical, who are the only working men tl ere arc in the republican party. Oil, i ; we must take what we ret. T suppose ! J Rut we arc getting tired of that sort of thing. I notice that it is the bloody radicals that bring out the vote cn electiou day; they are the men who scour the country for voters, and send carriages f.r sick men. Your conservative devils never do that. Why, there hasn't been an election in Ohio carried by the Whiirs or republicans ever since I cjm recollect, except just twice, whet, the democrats would have beaten us if it had not been for the Reserve. Ashtabula county saved Hayes this time, and if the radicals hadn't been out Thurman would have been elected. She can give a majority anywhere from two to five thousand. She ;ave over four thousand this time. She'll p.ivc five thousand for a pronounced republican president next jcar, or she'll give two thousand for an available gentleman. Men vcte on principle here, and if anybody thinks that a mere military record is going to win on the Reserve he's mistaken. The best republican? in the state will tay at home. 1 hey don t care for shoulder straps, but they do care tor straight republican princi - f 1 at. .1 , .. . . - i pies, and they wou t have any other. General Grant, without a platform and without a pledge, can't more than carry the Reserve. A pronounced republican will get fifty thousand majority; that's just the difference between availability aud principle in this coming fight, and men who purpose to cram a no party candidate down bur throats may as we'l take a note of it. And I think it is a great mistake to suppose that a mere military reputatiou can win anywhere in the next election. Re cent elections show that the cry won't avail any longer. In Ohio they came near beating one cf the best soldiers of the slate with a piece copperhead for governor; in Connecticut, last sprinr, they beat a splendid soldier with Mr. English ; in New ork, last year, the republicans beat sol diers running on the democratic ticket, and so on. The people waut to fight political battles on principle. It Grant wants tho presidency let him come out like a man aud say which side he is on, and if he is strong euough ou our ide we'll elect him. Rut it is neither wise nor necessary for us to run an availability candidate. We will have the southern ptatcs reorganized by that time, and they will vote righ t, then we can rely on enough northern states to insure the election of our mau, whoever ho may be. Mil. C II ASK. I spoko of the movement on foot to secure the nomination of Mr. ('base for the Presidency, and asked Mr. Wade what he thought of it. Well, he said, he didu't know how strong Chase was, though ho didn't think he was as strong now In the reserve us he used to be. Rut he would make a good candidate, and if nominated would be heartily fupportcd, because he was a pronounced republican. "The idea has got out, sonic how or other," aid he, "that I have bee i disposed to fight .Mr. Chase. 1 have never bcen anything of the kind. In 18(0, before the Chicago convention, Chase wrote me a letter asking me to sound the members of the two houses and sec what his prospects were. I did so I took the republican senators one by one into the lobby, and asked them what were Chase s prospects in their States. I 'found only one man Ringham, of Michi-j pn--who was in f ivr T Cha."? in the

Whon the convention was about to meet Chr.-e wanted me to decline, but how tli3 devil could I tJ?1tl,at,? 1 h1a(3ü't bcen nomina,teJ' I I "dn t know that auvbody would befool , . - - J 11 ! no"!:I,' 0 "T d " "0U.W have looked very impudent for me to de cline under such circumstances. Ever since that convention, Chase and his friends had an idea that I was opposed to him and trying to defeat him in one way or another. Not a word of truth in it. If Chase can be nominated next year, well and goad. At any rate, I think Ohio ought to present a united front at the con 1 i 1 i: 1 i vention, and cast her vote solid for some - body, and if anybody tr!cs to defeat that result they are no friends of mine. I have seen it stated that there are men in southern Ohio who pretend to act as my friends and who would support me merely to defeat Chase. They never will do anything of the kind with my consent. If Chase can be nominated I think he will make a good president, and we can elect him. Gerrymandering flic SoutIt.; The work of gerrymanding the south is followed up energetically by the military commanders. What has been done iu Virginia, in Alabama, in Louisiana, has just been done by General Pope in Florida. Here is a state whose black population under the census of 1SC0 was some GO.fMJO bt the voting has been so manipulated by a radical military Commander, that there is one negro voter to every four of the population, or over fifteen thousand votes, which all intelligent men know to be impossible. The black; have been allowed to vote where they choose, under as many ali-tttcs as the choose, and almost for as manv da-s as they choose. For illustration of this gerrymandering I process, take West Honda. Four districts have bcen created hero, with nine delegates to a convention. In those districts, altogether, there are 2.G8S whites to 2,458 negroes ; yet it turns out that the whites ele.t but two delegates, while the blacks elect the other seven! That jrives a delegate to every ÜÖD negro voters, while the whites are allowed but one to every 1.313. It is very nearly the same way in Middle Florida ; also in Eastern and Southern Florida. In Middle Flori. la the 7J59 registered negro voters elect sixteen delegates, while the 3,030 white voters elect but three! In Eastern and Southern Florida ;",325 negroes elect thirteen delegates, while 4,S33 whites elect but five I This thin has been reduced to 1 science by these radical commanders, who understand that their breid is buttered on that side How long will the people of the north slaud by and tee the white population of the southern states bound hand and foot and placed at the mercy of their former slaves I' Who dreams that restoration is to be accomplished in that way?

For fifty ycara and more ill the United States, it has been said, and truly said, that the public debt of Great Rritain wis a millstone upon the necks of the laboriuir masses ofthat tax-ridden country. Ry a process substantially the same with that adopted in I ranee, the public debt of Great Rritain has been perpetualized. It is true that there are occasional reductions; but the accretions outweigh the reductions, and to every practical interest and purj ose the Hritish debt is so much weight that the people are destined to carry until it is thrown off by a forcible revolution. That such a revolution will ultimately take place the people of the United States have long affirmed and believed ; and in that afiTrmition and belief have signified their opinion of the character of the obligation which attaches to debts in perpetuity. In spite of the elegance of the French system, which our Cotcmporary seems rJ willing to endorse, wc confess we do not see the excellence of its organic principle. We have yet to bo convinced that a puldic debt is a public blessing ; and shall continue skeptical Uutil that of tbe United States or of some other country has proved itself to be so practically. Call it retitcs. annuities, public credit, or by whatever fancy name may be invented; admit that the public securities afford to the wealthy very convenient means for investment, and to the adventurous great facilities for speeulitive profit, to those whose labor is to know all that is paid, whether iutcrest or principal, they are discouraging, oppressive and demoralizing.

The remarkable part of the story remaius to be told.
