Grant answers the various stories that have been in cir- culation about the relations between Gen. Badeau and his father, the late President Grant, by giving the whole correspondence to the world, Gen, Badeau was engaged by Gen. Grant in 2884 ‘to assist him in the preparation of his memoirs, His work was to be that of an ama- nuensis. This Gen. Badeau explains and adinits ‘MEANING OF THE WORD STRIKE. General Cowin’s argument the word “strike” was used several times. The court sald: cgiuls. word “atrike’ ts of modern origin. The ques- the case may turn, “Ir It means, aud.tcan be in one of the letters, when he says: “I have no | shown that its meaning in this case 1s @ desire, intention or right to claim the authorship | to create disturbance, cars and dite! of your book. The composition is entirely your | then the court can order a writ of injunction to re- own. After Gen. Grant's sudden relapse in 1885, Gen. Badeau, impressed with the magnitude of the Sale of the ‘proposed memoirs, and seeing immense gains, made, as appears tn the nce, a mand upon Gen, Grant to the effect that ‘he should be paid a certain sun per month and lke- Wise'a share in the profits to help the general Dulld a monument of enduring fame. Tne propo- sition Gen, Grant evidently ag a sug- gestion tat Gen, Badean should practically write 1s book and Gen, Grant assume the credit, A STINGING LETTER FROM GEN. GRANT. Gen, Grant, in a long letter uader date of May 5, 1885, in reply to Badeaw’s proposition, says: ince pondering over the contents of your let. ter, and more particularly over the conclusions have drawn from it and reflections base¢ upon what you say, and my knowledge of your temper aud disposition, I understand the letter better tuan you do, f have concluded that you and I must give up all association 60 far as the prepara. ton of any Auerary work woes, which 1s to bear 1ny signature, In all other respects I hope our relations ‘may continue as they’ have always — been, pleasant and friendly.” * >’ yousay'thatI am a man of affairs, ac., and can tell a simple story, &c. You imply that & literary man must supply some deficiencies, and that you are the only man who can doit, If this 4s the case, general, I do not want a book bearing iny name to go before the world which I did not | write t) such an extent as to be fuily entitled to the credit of authorship. do not want a secret between me and some one else which Would de- stroy my honor if it was divulged, I cannot think Of holding myself as dependent upon any person to supply a capacity which Lam lacking. 1 may fail but I will not put myself in any such posi- tion.” ‘ou say ‘no one but myselfean destroy my own book. Iti don't heip you it will retain its place, for you have neither the physical strength,’ &e, “In answer to thisT have only t0 say that for the last twenty-four years I have been very much employed in writing. As a. soldier I wrote my own orders, plans of battle, tnstruc- tions aud reports, "They were not _ edited‘ nor was assistance renderetl, AS President I wrote every official document, i believe, usual for presidents to write bearing my name.

J. M.
