COLUMBUS, March 24, 1869.
DEAR UNCLE:—I spent four days in Washington most pleasantly. There is still a lack of harmony on the Tenure of Office Law, but generally the prospect is good of a strong, successful, and popular Administration. On all essentials, Grant is more perfectly in accord with Republican ideas than was generally supposed was the case. The Cabinet is personally likely to be very popular. Economy and good sense seem to be in power.
Sincerely,
R. B. HAYES.
S. BIRCHARD.
