Gen. Grant’s Book.

The American Publishing Co., of Hartford,. Conn., mike the claim that the publishers of Gen. Grant’s book exhibit bad taste in assuming as original for that work some of the features adtA-rtised as new therein. The Hartford people say that several of the important features were original with a biogiaphy of Grant published by them before the General thought of writing his book, and that the title, “A Personal History of U. 8. Grant,” was used on the biogiaphy published by them on their first edition, and has always remained the same, but has been almost identically appropriated for the General’s book. Among the features found in the latter, but claimed as original in their book, ale the famous “Fort Donelson Surrender” letter, the portrait of Grant when a Lientenant, at 21 years of age, and the celebrated horse-buying story.
