SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF CEll. CRANT. !
Ilia Career bt ore the Ucbellion.
In the nil al village of Point
Pleasant, I)., April 127, 1S22 :ibout
the Untu, therefore, when the, first
iimnufauMiriiig-comiKiuy in l.owoll
was incorporated, ami a year before
tlie first ootton-niill w:h started hero
a poor Scotch family' were lilesseil
with the birth of a son, whom thuy
named Hiram Ulysses (limit. In
Hie following j'car, the family ic
niovcil to Jeoigolowii, O., whore
the child ueqiiiicil a fair common
scliool education. In 1811S), at tlie
ago of 17, the youth was nppoiutoil
to "West Point military academy by
Congressman 1 lamer of that slate,
and the papers were made out acci
dentally in tliu name of Ulysses S.
Grant; from that time, through life,
this change was accepted by him
self and liis family. At the academy
he did not ranlc very well, except in
mathematics, and when he graduated
in 18 li) he stood 21st in a class of
111. lie was appointed a brevet '2nd
lieul., and attached as a Mtpor
ntuneiary to the Hli regt. of the
Regular army, then stationed in
Missouri ; but after a brief and itu
impoitant scrviec there, the regt.
was despatched to Texas in lSlf,
as si part of Gen. Zachary Taylor's
army of invasion. Sept. JiOlh, 18 1,
Grant was commissioned 2nd lieut.
in full rank, and in the following
May, at Palo Alto, Mexico, engaged
in his iirst real battle. Subsequent
ly, in 1810, he engaged in the bat
tles of llcsaca do la Palma, Monte
rey, and the siege of Vera Cruz;
and in April, 1817, lie became
quartermaster of his regt. In Sept.,
1847, he fought so gallantly at Mo
lino del Key and Chapultepoc as to
win special mention in Ilia ollicial
reports, and as a reward he was
made a 1st lieut. on tlie Held of the
former, and a brevet capt. directly
after the latter. On the fall of the
city of Mexico, he returned with his
regt. to the United States, succes
sively posted at Detroit, Mich., and
Sackctt's Harbor, N. Y. In 181S,
at the ago of 20, lie married Miss
Julia T. Dent of St. Louis, sister of
a favorite class-mate of his at West
Point, and daughter of a prominent
citizen of that place, who rejoiced in
one of those military titles for which
the South in those days was noted
acquired in civil life. When, in
1852, the 4 th regt. was sent to
California and Oregon, then in a
very rough and unsettled condition,
Grant and hi wife accompanied
them. At Port Vancouver, in 1831),
he was commissioned a capt., and
in less than a year after (July,
1854) he resigned from the army.
Ilia father-in-law induced him to lo
cate on a farm near St. Louis, and
he also did a small real-estate busi
ness in that city. It was here that,
freed from the restraints of arniy
lifc and thrown among unusual
temptations, he fell into habits of
living which at one time threatened
his future usefulness ; but the se
quel proved that he could rise above
such besetting foibles and conquer
himself, as well as enemies in the
field of war: "lie that rulcth his
own spirit is greater than he that
takcth a city." In 185!), his former
employment proving unsatisfactory,
he removed to Galena, 111., whither
his father had gone, and there they
formed a partnership for the tan
ning and sale of leather. In this
humble occupation the war of the
rebolliou found him ; and that crisis
opened to him a career the most
brilliant in this generation of his
countrymen.
His Career duriny the llehcl
lion. Confucius once said, "Des
pise no youth, for ho may afterward
become eminent and shame thee;
but if ho arrive at the age of forty
and be not eminent, he never will
be." This bit of heathen philosophy
was disproved in the case of Gen.
Grant. He was in his 10th year
when, at the outbreak of the civil
war, he laid down his humble duties
at a tanner to again don the uniform
of his country's soldiers. He was
chosen captain of a company of
volunteers and proceeded with them
to the slate-capital of Illinois,
Springfield, where he was attached
to the military staff of Gov. Yates.
June 17, 18C1, he was commissioned
colonel of the 21st regt. of volun
teers. He entered at once with zeal
into the drilling of the "raw re
cruits," and then passed into Mis
souri, where his troops formed part
of the guard of an important rail
road. July 31, he was placed in
command of all the troops at Mexi
co, Mo., and Aug. 23 he was made
a brigadier-general and took charge
of the troops t Cairo, 111. From
, this date his promotion was rapid,
aud bis fame assured. He seized
Paducah and Smithland in Septem
ber; and after some intermediate
movements of slight importance, he
fought the battle of Belmont, Nov.
7, in command of two brigades,
having a horse shot from under him.
Dec. 21, Gen. Hnlleck appointed
him in comraaud of the district of
Cairo, which included portions of
Illinois, Kentucky and Missouri.
Feb. 4, 18G2, he started from Pa
ducah with 15,000 men, to co-operate
with Com. Fote in tho subju
gation of Forts Henry and Donelsou.
The movemont was entirely success
ful, though bloody; Fort Henry
yielded to tho gunboats, aud Fort
wWffr)WitMtVMiVwJthflfratfSH
Donclson surrendered to Grant. It
was in connection with this event
that ho wrote his famous answer to
Gon. lluckncr, commander of Fort
Donelsou, who asked for commis
sioners to arrange terms of capitula
tion: "No tonus other than tin un
conditional and Immediate surrender
can be accepted. I propose to move
immediately upon your works."
This message and its result electri
fied the northern heart and gavo
Grant his first national reputation,
and as u reward he was made a
major-general, dating from Feb. 10,
when Donclson fell.
April 0, 1802, a federal force of
40,000 which had been despatched
up the Tennessee river under Gen.
C. F. Smith (who had meanwhile
died) was surprised by an over
whelming confederate force and
routed. " Gen, Grant had just been
assigned to it, as successor to Gen.
Smith, and on the next day, with
rc-inforccmcnts, drove back the
rebels, with a heavy loss about
12,000 on each side. Gen. Grant
was wounded at this time. Gen.
llalleek soon after arrived and as
sumed command. On the appoint
ment of Hailed; as commander-in-chief,
Grant became department
commander of West Tennessee, and
in the following October the depart
ment was enlarged so as to embrace
a part of Mississippi, and altogether
was designated as the 13th army
corps. After various strategic operations,
which were in the main successful,
Gen. Grant secured tho surrender
of the city of Vicksburg, July 4,
18G3. This victory gave him pro
motion to the rank of major-general
in the Regular army ; 3'ct it is related
in Gen. Sherman's memoirs that, a
little before this, Grant was on tho
verge of resigning his commission
and returning to private life. Some
of his operations in Tennessee had
met with disapproval from Hallcck,
ana u rani's sensitive nature was so
slung that ho had firmly resolved to
retire from the field. Sherman with
much difficulty persuaded him to
bear the affront and remain where
he was another illustration of tlie
narrow border-line which 10 often
separates success from failure. Had
Grant left the front at that time, ho
would in all probability have been
unknown beyond a little circle
to-day ; he certainly could not hare
gained that prestige which subse
quently gave him such a splendid
history.
In October, 18G3, having contri
buted to the victories of Sherman on
the Big Black river, Grant was made
chief of the military division of the
Mississippi, comprising the depart
ments of Burnside, Hooker, Sher
man and Thomas. Ho concentrated
for the defence of Chattaoooga, and
Nov. 21 and 25 added to his laurels
by the triumphs of Missionary ridge
and Lookout mountain. The rebel
Longstrect was then driven from his
investment of Knoxvillc. General
Hallcck pronounced Grant's tactics
in this campaign among the most
brilliant in the history of warfare ;
and congress awarded tho hero a
gold-medal and a vote of thanks ;
various state-legislatures also passed
resolutions in his praise. March 1 ,
18G1, Prcst. Lincoln signed a bill
which had passed congress, reviving
the otlice of lieut.-Keneral, and
March 0 Grant received his com
mission as such in Washington, from
Prcst. Lincoln himself. March 17,
he issued his first general order in
his now relation, as commander of
all the armies of the United States
being at the time not quite 42 years
of ago, and in less than two years
having risen to that proud height
from a mere captain of volunteers.
Here, indeed, was a man of destiny ;
and thenceforward, until old age, his
star of prosperity continued in the
ascendant.
With a force of 700,000 under
arms, Grant at once planned two
main campaigns, to subdue tho re
bellious confederacy. The first of
these, with which he was himself
more immediately identified, was
directed against the city of Rich
mond, in which Lee was beleaguered,
the other was the movement of
Sherman against Atlanta, followed
later on Sherman's own responsibi
lity by that brilliant " inarch to tho
sea" and along the Atlantic states
northerly, till a junction was effected
with tho main army, and tlie rebel
lion was dead. Both plans were
completely successful. An uninter
rupted scries of battles gave Grant,
Sherman aud Sheridan imperishable
renown. Leo evacuated Richmond
in April, 1805, and on the 9th of that
month surrendered to Grant at
Appomattox court-house, Va. ; the
war languished some months later in
tho extreme South, but virtually
ended here.
Then came in swift succession the
assassination of Prcst. Lincoln ; the
accession of Prest. Johnson ; the
creation of tho office of general of
the army, to which Grant was
nominated in 18GG; the removal of
Stanton (Aug. 12, 1807) as secre
tary of war, and the appointment of
Grant as secretary ad interim', the
impeachment of Johnson, and the
troublous financial reaction and re
construction measures.
Jlis Career as President, In the
republican national convention nt
Chicago, May 21, 1808, Gen. Grant
THE DAILY BULLETIN,
was unanimously nominated foi pre
sident on the (list ballot, with
Schuyler Colfax .for vice-president.
Tho democrats nominated Seymour
mid Blair. At tlie election in No
vember, tlie republicans carried 20
etatcs (three not voting), by u
popular vote of 3,015,071, against
eight for the democrats with u vote
of 2,700,013; electoral votes 214 to
80, 23 not eligible. Juno 5, 1872,
Prest. Grant was unanimously reno
minated by ncclamation, in the re
publican convention nt Philadelphia,
with Henry Wilson of Massachusetts
for vice-president. The democrats
nominated Greeley and Brown. In
November, the former ticket was
chosen by 31 states to G; 3,597,070
popular suffrages to 2,834,079 ; 286
to 03 electoral votes (17 not counted).
Of Gen. Grant's iwo terms as pre
sident it would be impossible in our
space to recapitulate details ; suffice
it to say that the nation constantly
advanced in prosperity at home and
prostigo abroad. That the president
was not infallible there is abundant
evidence; but that he was in the
main patriotic and discreet most un
biassed judges allow. Perhaps the
most opposition was created by his
SantoDomingo annexation scheme, on
account of which Senator Sumner
openly attacked him.
An attempt was made to secure
Grant's reiiomination for a third
term one of the most unwise pro
jects imaginable; at this late day,
witli complete dispassion, it may bo
said that such a precedent could not
have failed to bo disastrous. The
politicians who attempted to man
oeuvre this breach of American tradi
tion were not, at least in any public
manner, aided by Gen. Grant; Gov.
Hayes of Ohio was nominated as liis
successor, was declared elected after
much trouble, and assumed the reins
of government from President Grant
on March 4, 1877.
Tlis Career in Jjr.tcr Years.
Gen. Grant's journey around the
world, after he had retired from
olHcc, was very notable, but is too
fresh in the minds of all to require
description at our hands. It occu
pied about two years, and tlie honors
bestowed upon him transcended,
probably, in extent those ever before
or since showered upon a mortal
man. His admirers in this country
during his absence grew more vigor
ous and aggressive, in support of
the idea of re-electing him for a
third term to the presidency ; and in
1880, the famous (or notorious, as
prejudices chooso to term it) 30G
stood in solid phalanx in the repub
lican national convention, to secure
that end. Speaker Blaine wa3 the
opposing candidate, and probably
he was the only man in America
whose popularity at that time could
have stood for a moment against
Grant's. By a sudden turn of the
political wheel, Blaine's supporters
turned to Gen. Garfield, and with
tke latter Grant's nomination was
defeated. Again it is but candor to
say,
that wo believe this result was
the wisest for the future welfare of
our country; and again, too, it
should be said that Grant himself
was nevor shown to be in any posi
tive alliance with his friends for his
return to power.
After the election of Garfield,
Gen. Grant removed to New York
city, where ho engaged in banking
operations, giving his capital and
reputation to the business, but very
little of his personal attention. A
knavish vounc fellow took advan
tage of his confidence, ruined his
private fortune and covered the old
commander with unmerited mortifi
cation. Private friends rallied around
him and raised a handsome subscrip
tion for his support in his broken
old age : and at the last session of
tho last congress, ho was placed on
tho retired list as a general of the
army. A painful cancer of the
throat developed, defying medical
skill ; and thus at length tho last of
earth is reached. So, as in every
life, however splendid, the pall of
death must at length obliterate all
else. . So ever passes away tho glory
of tho world. Let all Americans in
this hour of sadness, forgetting all
except the best in this great life of
a great man, unito in sympathy for
his clouded sunset, for the afllictiou
of his family, for tho loss of tho
nation at large.

WAH TALK IN WASHINGTON GEKCilAI.
DHUM AND GENEIIAI. HAZEN DISCUSS
THE MERITS OF TIIU OlTOSINO
AUMIES.
Washington, April 11. The gene
ral drift of opinion in military cir
cles at Washington is that war
between Russia and England is in
evitable, although officers are divided
in opinion as to whether, this war is
imminent. Gen. Sheridan was asked
by the World correspondent this
evening to give his judgment upon
the subject. He replied, "I still
think the question between England
and Russia is a diplomatic one.
Whether it will get beyond that point
or not I do not protend to say. I
know nothing of tho whole contro
versy hut the meagre reports of tho
newspapers, and even these reports
may have no basis of facts. You
know during our own war a
MONDAY, MAY 18, 1635,,
gictt many things got Into the news
papers about the Movements of our
nnnlos niul tho like to the very re-
vniftii nf llin truth. So. in view of (
the uncertainly of tho whole situa
tion, tlie World and every one else
will have to excuse my giving 11 posi
tive opinion. You know that I am
rather conservative and not inclined
to decide mntters too quickly."
It. C. Drum, the Adjutant-General
of the Army, spent two months in
Knglnnd last summer, lie is an cn-
uiusiasuc nuinircr 01 .r.iiiisii uuo,
and believes that England and Russia
will get to fighting before long. He
says that Russia has been quietly
working down towards the East India
possessions of England, nnd that a
conflict in future "is inevitable. "Tho
English soldier," said Gen. Drum,
"is tlie finest in tlie world. I make
no exception. A regiment of English
men is the finest body of soldiers
ever gotten together."
"You will not even except our
volunteer troops of the last war?"
"No," said Gen. Drum; "wo had
no regiments of the purely American
type. They were mixed with the
foreign clement always."
"Which nation do you think would
win in a light England or Russia?"
"I do not believe that the English
troops can bo beaten by any nation.
They love fighting. They are men
of high intelligence and their olll
cers are plucky fellows. The weak
feature of the Knglish army at pre
sent is the absence of any staff sys
tem. They have no regular staff as
we have in our army. No olllcer is
trained to hold an executive position.
Oillecrs in the British army are too
apt to be placed in responsible posi
tions through favor ' or influence.
This is the great fault of the ser
vice. Tlie Scotch make wonderful
soldiers. They are the only troops
that have made a reputation in inili
tary history for a capacity to rail
under fire. Unite them with tlie
English and handle them well, and
you have an invincible army."
G en. Hazen was sent abroad during
the Ttirco-Russian war as a military
observer, and had his headquarters
at Vienna. He was with the Rus
sian troops for some timo, and was
with Gen. Skobeleff for several
days. General Hazen says that
Russia came very near hav
ing a war with England at the
close of her war with" Turkey.
If she had been fully prepared for
it there would have certainly been a
war between the two nations at that
time. "I had a good many talks
with Russian officers," he said.
"They arc all preparing themselves
with one idea, that is to some day
test their strength with the English.
I saw a great many of their regi
ments on parade. The unceasing
question that was asked me was,
How do our men compare with the
English? The Russian soldiers are
a very fine body of men. They have
a greater personal devotion to their
officers and to the Emperor, their
chief, than is known in any army.
Russia has been preparing for a war
with England for a long time. I
suppose that the Emperor will be
very largely guided by the desire of
the Russian people. He has a very
large debt, it is true, but it may he
easier for him to go alioad and have
a war to divert the attention of-the
revolutionists at home. The Russians
have been moving south for some
time. It is inevitable that the Russian
Empire, great as it is, will some
time control the outlet tnrougu tno
Dardanelles to the Mediterranean.
It is necessary to the prosperity and
future growth of this great Empire."
Gen. Hazen has as high an opinion
of the English troops as has Gen.
Drum. He thinks that they arc the
finest soldiers in the world. England
docs not believe in maintaining large
standing armies, but her reserves
represent the very best possible ma
terial. The Germans and tho Aus
trians are perhaps better machine
soldiers. They are more inclined to
develop the professional soldier than
the English. The latter are demo
cratic in their ideas, very much like
the people of this country. If tho
war comes it will bo a sevcro and
protracted one. Gcn'IInzen did not
think that other nations would
interfere, although certain alliances
might be made. He thought it
possible that Russia was more in
clined to fight at tho present timo
than at any other, because England
is in a certain sense at a disadvan
tage through having other compli
cations upon her hands. He did
not believe that there would be any
trouble in Ireland in the event of a
war. The Irish are so fond of fight
ing that ho felt certain England
would receive all the support that
bIio needed from tho people of that
pugnacious island.
Gen. Cockrcll, Senator from Mis
souri, who was a slashing cavalry
officer in the Confederacy, is very
much interested in tho Russian-English
quarrel. Ho has been reading
all of the reports that ho could get
upon the subject. Ho says ho thinks
that the whole question of whether
there will bo a war now or not de
pends upon the correct report of the
Russian General's conduct in tho
recent battle in Afghanistan. If ho
mado the attack, then the Russian
Government will bo compelled to
recall him nnd make an apology to
the British Government. He feels
coitaln that if this is not done war
will follow. New York World.
