Grant's Tour Around the World: Embracing His Speeches, Receptions, and Description of His Travels, With a Biographical Sketch of His LifeIt was but fitting that he should be crowned with such honors as have never been bestowed by foreign nations upon any citizen of the United States. And become the recipient of such tokens of confidence and enthusiastic affection as have never been exhib ited by Americans to any citizen. For when this generation shall have passed away, when the fierce passions engendered by a bitter strife shall have been tranquilized, the voices of prejudice and calumny that have been so loud against his great name will be hushed forever, and the verdict of impartial his tory will be that, since the foundation of our gov crament, no American, however bright the halo that time has cast around his memory,has deserved better of his country than Ulysses S.
