There was no depression in the north. The northern states were flush with the plunder taken from the South during the War and 'Reconstruction', and were also turning out immense amounts of goods from their factories and belching thick black smoke into the atmosphere. The Credit mobilier scandal was the biggest scandal of the Grant administration.
C. Grant was not corrupt, just a drunk. He was actually ticketed for riding his horse while intoxicated through the streets of D.C..
