Washington Letter.

THE GRANT MOVEMENT—GRANT A

DATE.

CANDI-

Wasuincron, Noy. 10, 1879.

A curious turn has been made in the Grant movement, if we may believe his friends. Formerly it was industrionsly maintained and generally believed that

| Grant was indifferent about mere political

honors, and would not be considered a Presidential candidate cor Iebor fer the nomination. But events have exposed the fallacy of ‘this, for, aa I shall show, tke General has long considered himself a candidate, has been trying to promote nomination by refusing to say anything about it, and now proposes to let his friends manage him as they see fit to that end. Curiosity was first aroused on this point by the General refusing to come to Washington te participate in the reunion of the army of the Cumberland, and to ac- cept several other soldiers reunion invita- tions. Why was this, when he has accept- ed so many invitations to private recep- tions, and personal glorifications! [ made inquiries of some of his friends. The very first one, who is a very firm Grant man, on the religious score, said bluntly, “Why, don’t you see, we don’t want the General to take part in celebrations where he will be only one of many heroes; we want him to go only where Grant will be the only attraction, where there will be nobody else to cheer for, and where there ean be no mistake about the Grant boom. He has been so informed by those who are working the political wires, and has consented to do what they think most judicious in the matter.” I suggested that this did net agree with what we had heard about the Genera!, that he did not want to re-enter politics, and said nothing about the Presidency. *‘That is stuff,” said the man, “‘It did well enough for a while. But the General and his friends have had an understand. ing all the time.” ‘“‘But why,” | asked, “ts it necessary now to change this silent plan and make the General «u active, outspoken candidate?’ ‘“‘Why, you see, it really was becoming understood that Grant wasn’t a candidate, and after the October elections showed that we should make a clean sweep in the North, and this proves that no one man was necessary to success next year, such a condition would not do. Then we began to make ont a pro- gramme for him, but it wasn’t till after the November elections that the, thing was finally arranged. So you see now that Gen. Grant announces that he will appear in Louisville and thence come East, aecept- ing the honers at different points. Then he will go to- Cuba for the winter, return- ing by way of New Orleans, and other southern points in time to be borne along by the Southern Republicans. The Grant movement, which will need a little enthusing about that time.” ‘‘ And will Gen. Grant declare himself to be a candidate in any way!’ ‘*Under no circumstances. He will not even consent to take the nomination if it comes unanimously. That is his strongest hold, and we wouldn't have him break the chain by speaking. He will keep mum to the last moment. I have consulted with other Grant men; and while none speak ont as plainly as this we did, they all admit that Gieneral Grant has an ambition te try his hand again. The late elections have ex- cited his anxiety, since so many have de- clared that they know other men just as availa>le as he, and from this time forth he will work indirectly for the nomination, That explains the announcement from Galena of his programme of travel, and his refusal to attend any general celebration, if he can help it. I state the facts as I find them, and the reader must make his own comment.
