Grant, whose name and tame are more widely known with the possible exception ot Abraham Lincoln, than that ot any other man ot the present age. Many prominent papers have urged a general observance ot the day, or as it falls on Sunday, ot the following Monday, and the clergy have been re quested to “direct the thoughts ot their auditors to the deeds of General Grant, and the patriotic lessons to be drawn from them,” on Sunday next. Says a New York c.xch.ange: “For several years pist the anniversary ol his b'rth has been formally observed by his grateful countrymen, and year bj- year the observance is becoming more general. Heretofore the com memoration ot the day has taken no more practical form than that ol ban quets and the c jnsequent after-dinner oratory. In view of the pending move ment lor the erection of a monument to his memory, it would seem high time that the observance assumed a more practical character Let the deinirtiire Particularlji^ does this cause and op- appeal to the meniOers ot the -rmy of the Republic, to the men who fought under Gen Grant, to the men who, in honoring his memory honor themselves.
