Graut—us Far as it Goes. No one acquainted with Gen, Grant will doubt that he told the truth in his interview with the agent of the Associated Prees, which was telegraphed from Washington, and pub- lished in Te Sun yesterday morning. Cen. Gnanr admits that once, when he was on Mr. Fisk's steamboat, before she left the wharf, Mr. Fisx—professing to come from Jay Gourp—made to him a dishonorable proposition to furnish in advance private in- formation of the intended financial operations of the Government. This proposition the President says he rojected; and we do not question his word. Casuists may say that Georor WastiNcton would have done more than answer quictly, and would have left the boat in indignation and disgust; but it does not appear that Gen, GRANv declined the free passage from Mr. Fisk after the Admiral had made him this Gishonorable proposition. are not ty there questions, it is evident that Europé is on the eve of grave events, and that, even if the French Emperor's life should be syared, his shattered health will not permit him to hold the reins of power for any length of time, In this country we are not directly inter- ested in these questions, excepting that we like to see the old nations advance in the path of selfgovernment, and the people everywhere delivered from their oppressors. At the same time, we can’t but bear in mind that after having crushed self-government in France, NAroLFON attempted also to de- stroy it in America, and is at the present time the most effective ally of Gen. Part in withholding that boon from Cuba, Any change in Europe favorable to the progross of selfrovernment among the nations of the Old World must naturally react upon those of the New. Thus our American interests, os well as our sympathies with struggling European nations, lend us to watch with the deepest interest any and every event that will break up despotic dynasties and mili- tary oligarchies, and pave tho way for iree- doi and the rights of man pened soe LRY emphatically The Hon. Honack declares his belief that ‘God created oar race mate and female, with a clear-seeing intent that it should thereby be rendered more efficient, nobler, happicr than it otherwise could be.” This is sound os far as it goes; but our great American philosopher might have gone still fur- ther, ond declared that if God bad not created the race male and fema there is every reason to believe that there would have been no race at all, beste tata Few of the few men who at the openi this century ventured their litte bund: some puny bantling of the Stock Exchange were aware that they were making history, au out of that little cloud would grow such a great tempest os in the past two weeks has swept Wall street.

GRANT omits all mention of the name i ‘ tT of his brother-in-law, Mr. Corbin. If Gen, Gnranr could say nothing to free ‘Mr. Connin from the imputations and sus- -picions which Mr. Fisk’s statements have *hrown around him, then his silence was dis- treet; but if, on the contrary, he had it in his powar ta avenlpate Mey Comin, f6 Wer strange omission on his part to say nothing about him. The public will be interested to see how far Mr. Fisx will be able to maintain the po- sitions which he has assumed in this matter, A remarkable statement bearing his signa- ‘ure, and corroborated to some extent by sev- eral affidavits, appears in our columns thie morning. ea ceeiaieeseteeee The Pennsylvania and Ohio Elections, One week from to-day elections take place in Pennsylvania and Ohio. They are the most important of all the elections which vecur in October, for the results will indicate something os to the drift of political affairs, The September elections meant nothing. Everybody knew that California would go Democratic, and that Vermont and Maine would go Republican ; but doubt hangs over the result in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and both States are being contested with a good deal of warmth. If Paciwur and PEenpie- TON, the Democratic candidates for Governor, are chosen, it will throw a dark cloud over the future prospects of the Republican cause Vf, on the contrary, both are defeated, it will show that the Democrats have not tact enough to take advantage of the demoraliza- tion diffused through the Republican ranks by the blunders of Giant's Administration * Beeides, the failure of PeNDLETON to carry Ohio now, would be a blow to his Pres'dea. tial aspirations for 1872 from which he would not be likely to recover. Fully appreciating the importance of the eurrent canyuss, both parties in these two great central States are doing their utmost for success, Each State is alive with mass meetings and stump specches, nud the result is looked for with keen solicitude by poli ticians all over the Union. Time. The opening of the Suez Canal and the ecumenical Council are ostensibly the two roming sensations of what may be called the fall trade in Old World events. The Empress Evoenim, like CLeoratna of old, will be greeted with ovations on the shores of the Nile, and the Pyramids will look down upon her with an amazement to which, however, they have been accustomed by the bewilder. ing associations of many thousand years. The Eternal City, too, will be decked out in its gayest colors, to do honor to the ecclosiastical dignitaries of all nations that are fast gather- ing within its walls. But, while newspaper correspondents are on the alert for gorgeous descriptions of the doings in Cairo and in Rome, the attention of potentaios and diplomats is cen tred upon an old man’s sick room, and upon the contingencies of Louis Navoiwon’s death, What will happen after hie exit from this world—this is the great problem which absorbs them far more than cither Suez Canal or Ecumenical Council, Will the NAvoLHon dynasty con- tinue in power? Will there be a restora. Mon of the constitutional monarchy under Louis Pur.svpe’s grandson ?. or, will there © Po sepublic under the presidency of Lupnu- Bouin? Whatever may be the solution of kers, and Jerome Park will be their exchan and high gaming room, Its incidents may often be qvestionable, its associations equivocal; bt as men is, and clways will be, a betting animal, the gallant field, the fierce struggle, the exciting pastime appeal more to his imagination than even such a jungle of wild Deusts as Wall street.

He also pro- tests against the reactionary tendencies of the Roman ecclesiastics, and tho divorce which he thinks they are tying to effect between the Church and the society of the nineteenth ow tury, He therefore refises to preach any more in the Cathedral of Notre Dame, or to remain in his convent, It is possible that he may eventn- ally, like Loruer, separate from the Church of Rome ; but at present, as also Lurie did in the beginning of his eare aims only at ace plishing # reform without producing a disrup- ture, cee Real estate in Philadelphia, it is said, is worth nothing like what it was two or three years ago, and is still declining in value, There are more houses tenants, and brick and lamber are so low that buildings built when prices wi higher cannot compete with those more recent erected, The many Southerners, too, who during the rebellion took refuge in Philadelphia, have gone back to the Sonth and left vacant dwellings behind them, New York tenants would not re- fret to have a similar state of thir heve next spring, about house-hiring tine. sao Postmaster CresWeit allegos that it was proper for him to send Senator Ramsey to France as his plenipotentiary, because the English Govern- ment had despatched Mr, Trottors to the United States, He furthermore claims, we unde stand, that the appointment of such special en- voys for postal negotiations lawfully devolves upon the Postmaster-General, Such is the per- petual apology put in by Red Tape; but we prevail before last the cynosure of Epsom, Why may not our own calm philosopher, Hoxace Gueeivv, extend to horses the same alle tion he bestows on. poultry and pigs, and lead up a Kentucky or a Vauxhall to the scutes to recetve his laurels? The Derby is Lone don’s great holiday, the St, Leger that of York- shire, So will be the mecting at Jerome Park the saint’s day of New York; and if the race may have some drawbacks, as all pursuits must have, it has the glory of being a great national frolio— of bringing for a day in the open field and under the freshening air, from their dreary dens, hun- dreds of artisans who care little whether the con- flict yields its palms to a Travers or a Betwows, but who go out to enjoy a festival, and derive from its enjoyment, and from the commingling of classes which it brings, that ardent national spirit which is the strength of every people. In the preface to the poom of the famous race be- tween Matilda and Mameluke, written by the Pro- fessor of Poetry at Oxford, it is stated that there may be found at Doncaster hundreds of Yorkshiremen as familiar with every strain of blood of the competing horses as Mr, Hunver or Mr, Puapy could be with our horses here, As yet we may not have to that, but we will, Never has a race meeting opened with @ greater promise than that which will be initiated to-morrow, Never will more beautiful fillies be stripped or fleeter or more distinguished horses take part in the con- ‘o long as Jerome Park can muster such a crowd of gullant steeds as its turf will find on this and the following week, its future as the Fpsom of America may be regarded as establish- ed, and the name of Jenoae will hold the same high place in the history of our ¢ does that tests t of Hearucore in the annuals of the English, Sonator SUMNER, the most peace loving of all men, and an ardent adimirer of Great Britaia, has placed himself ia an attitude of betligere toward the old country which all his assevera- tions to the contrary cannot gainsay, He is now accused by the Suurday Reolew of ndyocatng the dismemberment of England, No man will be more surprised at this chorge than Mr, Sum Kew bimecif, Me merely intimated, with bis habitaal grace and eloquence, that in the course of events the English colonists, with the permis. sion of the mother country, would solivit the privi loge of being admitted to the Amevican Union, This deticate fur is eve: wudowing of comi y characterized by the London journalist as an attempt to dismember England, Thus the distinguished Senator of Massachusetts, who al- ways coun and cones through the enemies of bis teachings the reputa tion of a champion of strife and war, —_ We see it stated inthe Boston Journal that Lord Staxtey, son of the Earl of Deney, and one of the most distinguished of living British statesmen, having been a Cubinet Minister under two Administrations, and for two years Seeretary of State for Foreign Affairs, has been married seven years toa Spanish lady, but has never acknowledged the alliance until lately, To those wequainted with th stances of Lord rant extraondinary in this anvouncement, It is well known in England that in his youth he was afllicted with a nots mou mania, which manifested itself on various oc- cas.ons, to the grief and amazement of bis father, who by position and natural gifts may claim to stund at the head of the British aristocra It led to Staxtey’s losing caste first anong schoolmates, and afterward at the University 16 peace obtains ary cire y's life there is nothing y nover expected to hear it from Mr, Cuusweun.

A MOONLIGHT IDE TO DEERFIELD. On one retnen from the Syracuse Convention we stopped at Utica for the purpose of visiting Mr. Sey mour. Woe had been told that when in the elty his hondquarters wero at the Butterfeld Mouse, We made Inquiries there, and were Informed that he had been tu town tuat morning, but had only remajued short time—Jast long enough to greet some of the returning delegates at the dopot, on the arrival of the train bound eastward. It being late in the after- noon we concluded to watt until the next day befure visiting the ex-Goyernor, But when eveulug came, the beautiful moonlight tempted us to ride to Deer- Ald that night, and we did ao, We were accom. panied by Mr, RB.

We crossed the famous Mohawk and passea trough @ picturesque and fertile country. When about half-way to Deerfield, we wero suddenly halt- ed at atoll-gate by an old dame, who came out to meet us, lamp fn hand, and eruly demanded the toll money, She manttested some impationce, and told us to hurry, as anotlior carriage was coming, * and 1’ some of those Uticn seainps, Who'll run the gate and not pay me,’* she said, We complied with her demand end passed on, ‘Tho Utica #eamps turned out to be Sen ator Conkling and a friend, THE SEYMOUR MANSION.

Atcort’s Hospital Sketches, (Roveris Bros.) Pablished one by one in a newspaper at the poriod when written, they have now been collected, and form part of a volume, the remainder of which is dled with de tached stories. Miss Alcott's timo of service as a nurse was short, She was stationed in a Washington hospital for a month, broke down from the effects of injudi- cious exertion and unsuitable food, and was forced to return home to undergo an attack of typhold foyer, Yot in that time her worm heart and unrest- ing labors did good service, It is impossible not to admire the courage with which she worked on, do- ing her bost for the patieuts among all the discour- aging circumstances of an ill-regulated hospital. Yet while all honor fs given to the tenderness with which sho guarded those in her care, and to the de- termined spirit of cheerfulness and jesting good humor which saved her from unwholesome sentt- mentality, We cannot avold noticing how many of tho tribulations she brought upon herself, An an- fortunate facility for blundering seems to have beset her; and er own accountof her work betrays a want of thoronghness and method wich is sufficlent to account for many mishaps, She makes fun re- morselessly of herself, and the ridiculous eiream- stances into which she stumbled, apparently with- out perceiving that the real cause ts something more personal thau a combination of accidents, Aiter her arrival at the hospital, when she 1s frst evlled has- tily to the wounded men who have suddenly arrived, she makes her way to the ball in which they have been stationed, * Having,” she says, * been run over by three excited surgeons, bumped agalast by mi- gratory coal bods, water pails, and small boys, nearly scalded by an avaiauche of newly-filled ten pots, und hopelessly entangied in a knot of colored sisters coming to wash, I progressed by slow stages up stairs and dowa till the mito hall was reached, and Tpansed co tak breath anda survey." That she should not havo pat herself in the way of the surgeons, te individual with a tray fall of teapots, or the other impediments in the passage, apparently did not ooenr to her. Various other incidents are narrated in this Nttle volume, which Miss Ophelia, the famous old maid of * Unele Tom's Cabin,” would certainly have eharac- terized as “too shiftiess.” Here, for instance, is « specimen which is entertaining besides; for Miss Alcott hasan unnsual gift of humor, ‘The passage is written as am example of the bad management and disorder at the Hurly-Burly Honse, as she cbristens her hospital : “Tam dressing Sam Dammer's shoulder, and, hay- Ang cleansed the wound, look abont for x0.no stripe of adhesive plaster to hold on the litte square of wet linen which is to cover the gunslot wound; the case fs notin the trav; Frank, the sleepy, balf-sick attendant, knows nothing of it; we rammmage hich and low; Sam is tired and fumes; Frank dawdies aud yawns; the men advise and laugh at toe durry ; 1 feel like & boiling teakettle with Nid ready to fly off and damage somebody. “*Go and borrow some from the next ward and spend the rest of the day in finding oura,* I mall command.
