"Head Quarters Armies of the United States.
"Washington, D. C., Feb. 17, 1866.
"Dear General,—Your letter of the 15th inst., enclosing me the very handsome testimonial of the citizens of New York, with names of all the too generous contributors to it, is received. I feel at a loss to know how to express my appreciation of this substantial token of the friendship of the citizens named in your letter, and for the generosity of the citizens of New York generally, and especially towards those who they conceive have rendered service in maintaining the integrity of the whole Union. Suffice it to say that I shall always appreciate their generosity towards me and endeavor to pursue a course through life, and to make such use of the means thus unexpectedly placed in my possession, as will meet with their approval.
"Through you I wish to thank the gentlemen whose names you have enclosed to me individually and collectively.
"I have the honor to be, Your obt. Servt.,
"U. S. Grant, Lt. Gen."
J. D. VAN BUREN TO TILDEN

"Dear Sir,—I am, in one sense, not a politician, and my opinion is not worth so much as those of others; but in the sense of being always interested in public affairs, I am perhaps a politician. What I mean is, that I have not a view of things from inside of the machinery.
