Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
The Grant Years
• Ulysses S. Grant was elected president of the United States in 1868.
• Immediately upon Inauguration in 1869, Grant bolstered Reconstruction by
prodding Congress to readmit Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas into the Union,
while ensuring their constitutions protected every citizen's voting rights.
• Grant re-admitted several Southern states to the Union, and signed legislation
guaranteeing equal rights to recently freed slaves.
• Grant created new federal departments and ordered federal troops to suppress
racial violence in the South.
• Ultimately, Grant's administration was marred by a series of scandals.

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
The Election of 1868
• The Democrats nominated Horatio Seymour after a series of failed ballots and
pledged to pursue a softer Reconstruction.
• Republicans favored Radical Reconstruction, punishing the South for its role in
the war and nominated war hero Ulysses S. Grant.
• Grant took no part in the campaign and made no promises. A line in his letter of
acceptance of the nomination became the Republican campaign theme—"Let us
have peace".

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
The Government Debt
• Grant's first move upon taking office was signing the Public Credit Act of 1869,
which ensured that all public debts, particularly war bonds, would be paid only in
gold rather than in greenbacks.
• Grant protected the wages of U.S. Government employees through another act
he signed in 1869.
• Treasury Secretary Boutwell reorganized and reformed the United States
Treasury by discharging unnecessary employees, starting sweeping changes in
Bureau of Printing and Engraving to protect the currency from counterfeiters, and
revitalizing tax collections to hasten the collection of revenue.

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
Scandals
• Grant pursued different courses for prosecution depending on his friendship with
those indicted, which caused controversy.
• The Black Friday scandal, which involved Grant's brother-in-law, was a scheme to
control the gold market. When it failed, it rocked the United States economy.
• The Whiskey Ring scandal, which involved Grant's personal secretary, was a
scheme to defraud the IRS of whiskey taxes.
• Grant himself was deposed as part of the Whiskey Ring scandal.

White Terror
• The White League was a paramilitary group formed to intimidate AfricanAmericans and Republican officeholders.
• The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan were formed by Confederate veterans and
quickly formed a coherent hierarchy.
• The KKK opposed Republicans, ""carpetbaggers and scalawags," as well as
African-Americans.

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
Conservative Resurgence
• The Ku Klux Klan was one of many violent secret societies formed to intimidate
African-Americans and voters in the South.
• Often, these parties called themselves the "Conservative Party" or the
"Democratic and Conservative Party" in order to distinguish themselves from the
national Democratic Party and to obtain support from former Whigs.
• Reaction by the angry whites included the formation of violent secret societies,
especially the KKK.
• Violence occurred in cities with Democrats, Conservatives, and other angry
whites on one side and Republicans, African-Americans, federal government

representatives, and Republican-organized armed Loyal Leagues on the other.

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
Reform and the Election of 1872
• Liberal Republicans split from the main Republican Party and nominated Horace
Greeley.
• The Democrats, with no strong candidate of their own, adopted Greeley as their
candidate.
• The Republicans, who were content with their Reconstruction program for the
South, renominated Grant and Representative Henry Wilson in 1872. Grant had
remained a popular Civil War hero, and the Republicans continued to wave the
"bloody shirt" as a patriotic symbol representing the North.

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
Panic and Redemption
• The Panic of 1873 started when the stock market in Vienna crashed in June 1873.
Unsettled markets soon spread to Berlin, and throughout Europe. Three months
later, the Panic spread to the United States when three major banks stopped
making payments.
• The causes of the panic in the United States included over-expansion in the
railroad industry after the Civil War, losses in the Chicago and Boston fires of
1871 and 1872, respectively, and insatiable speculation by Wall Street financiers.
• Grant had little economic experience and relied on advisors who implemented a
series of policies that caused a five year depression.

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
The Compromise of 1877
• Whether the negotiations took place or not, some of the elements of the supposed
bargain were carried through, such as the removal of troops from the South and
the appointment of a southern cabinet member.
• Other elements of the bargain, such as industrialization of the South and the
funding of a transcontinental railroad, did not happen.
• The bargain itself did not decide the results of the 1876 election.

Reconstruction: 1865-1877 > The Grant Administration
The End of Reconstruction
• The administration of Rutherford B. Hayes carried out policies that ended
Reconstruction and reinstated the remaining Southern states into the Union.
• The Democrats had little leverage—they could not block Hayes' election, but they
were mollified by the implicit, "back room" deal that federal troops would be
removed on the condition that the Southern states pledged to protect the lives of
African Americans.
• With the removal of Northern troops, the President had no method to enforce
Reconstruction, thus this "back room" deal signaled the end of American
Reconstruction.
• By 1879, thousands of African American "exodusters" packed up and headed to
