They admired his fearless candor, and applauded him for it : and the Eadical leaders of the party, finding that to oppose Grant was to lose favor and iniluence with the people, made a virtue of necessity, and gave Grant a seeminghj zealous, but really reluctant, support. Since Grant would not come tf» them, the}' went to Grant; for the}' had no other place to go, because the people went there. It is, therefore, a great mis- take to suppose the Radicals have got Grant. The trntli is otherwise — ...Grant has got the liadicaU. Before the war, Grant was a Democrat, and voted the Democratic ticket : but he was not a Democratic partisan or bigot. Had he been, he never would have been at the head of the armies furnished by the people to crush out the rebel- lion. He might have been a high officer among the Knights of the Golden Circle, or he might have presided over some association of the so-called Sons of Liberty; but anything more or better, he could not, and would not, have been. When the war broke out, and he perceived that his party was taking grounds against his country, he promptly took gi-ound against his party, and for his country, and, at once ofiered his country his services, and, if need were, his life.
