11; the Austriaus, in two battles. 0. 08; the French, in nine battles, 0. 08; the English, in four battles, 0. 10. In onr civil war, in eleven battles, the Union forces lost 0. 1289, and the Confederate forces lost 0. 1416. Modern wars have furnished no soldiers with the courage and en- durance of these Americans. These gi-eat armies were made of the best metal. They could endiire continuoias hammering and go into a spiral scab- bard. Any just estimate of Grant's abilities must include proper n...otice of his endurance of assaults and misrepresentations. He is the best abused man in American history. He seems to have marched straight up to the highest po- sitions without a single faltering step; and he did. But it was in spite of the most bitter and constant and nialicioi;s detractions. He advanced as the ocean steamer does, in spit* of the tides and the storms. Every step of his ■way was gained in spite of bitter opposition from men who ought to have helped him. After Fort Donelson his chief gave the credit to an inferior officer, recommended an unknown man for promotion, removed Grant from his command, and put him, practically, under arrest.
