HIT "TnTM,, AGAIN.
GEN. GRANT AND THE PRESIDENCY.

The New York correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Inquirer states that letters
have been received from Gen. Grant by
some Of his personal friends in that city,
stating that it is against his wishes and
consent that his name is brought forward
so couspiCuously in some Of the Ncw
York journals as candidate ftr the Pres.
idrncy. The old hero suggests that there
is time enough TO look up candidates for
the Presidency six mouths hence, and
that in the meanwhile the friends of the
Union would better consult the Interests
of the country and his own desires by
filling up his wasted regiments in order
to enable him and them to give the fin
Ishing blow to the Rebellion as soon SIS
possible. This is about the hardest hit
Ot the Coppcrheods that has been recent.
