Did it grow upon him gradually as circumstancos scemed to rcquirc? Tlio President replied au follows : " Wcll, thüBC views bogan to taUo forni in tlio words of niy lotttr of acccptanco. I confidered the ituation of thing in the South ; saw how iniiospible it seonied to restore order, and ixjace, and harmony ; saw tho violence and bloodBhed at their elections ; how white Itopublicans as well as black wero hot down during their p)litical contcatii, and I asked myself, Why is it, and how long mu.st this continue? Those men down South, the wliito, educated iutizi-iis. are fts good rnen as you or I. They are Ohristians, not thiovee. nor ent-throata, nor baudits ; vet they seo thbso things and approve theru, if they do not tako part in thom. Why is it, and how Ion;; will they continue V While thinking these questions over, my mind reverted to (bc wvjno of tbo war, and tho incident at the battle of Cedar Montitaiu came to my nrind. It was a hard-fought engagement, and for a time wc coiüd not teil how it would end. Wo who were in oommaod had dotorniined that if a cortain movement resulted in one way wo would givo certaiu orders, bnt, if it resultod otherwiw, different orders would be givon. With our lield-glasres wo were watching the couro of things. All at onco I saw a conunotiou in the llii.-kcstof the fray. loe artillery liad KOtifo work, and were throwing shells fast and witli unerring aim into tho Holid rankH of the enemy. Krads were beiiiR blown from their bodii's, amis and legs torn from tlioir aockets, and juls sent to onc world or tho other unpropared, and yet I rejoiced and congratulatt 1 mv fellow-oflicer that we ero victorious How could thi be? Why was it? It was booauBC wo were at war. That one word solved in mv miud tho problem of the South. Tbu péópJe there wcro at war. There was a conflict coinir cu. 'liic social and political relatious of tho people were not natural, not harmonious. There were disturbing elementa among them, and whilo they existed or wore nnduly activo there wonld le conlliot Let the canses of tho coniot bo removed aud there will be peaco and ultimately harmony and prpffpprity." BnV aid tho reporter, " ívc do not seo miich aíspoffltiqn in the South to manifest a loving tempor tnward ús in tho North." The President mildly retorted : "Howdovon knowV Yon form your opinjons, no doübt, rom reading the papers, but editors of newspapera do not alwaysrcpresont tho popular genoral feeling of tho pooplo, eithor North or South. I think mostof the people in the South, as I know they are in the North, are moro disposed to oncourago fraternal, harmonious, social aud business relations than the oxu-omistx, who nnfortunatüly too often got control of nowspapers, but oven thcBe. or most of them, will come around all right in timo."
