| ''Of his election General Grant enter conversation that his opinions are as much
 the result of his fine intuition-his keen
 insight into the working of the popular
 mind-as of what he hears from his politi- cal friends. Yes, said he, if I thought I could serve the country as well in my pres ent station as in the Presidential chair, I should care nothing for an election. To give up the place as General is sacrifice. 1t suits me, am grateful that it was given to me; it is for life, and am sure nothing could be more gratifying to ones ambi- tion.

MARIAN IN DEFENCE OF GEN. GRANTS MILITARY
 REPUTATION.

To tbe Editor of hc N Y. Times:
 Some one has taken the trouble to send me several numbers of the New York Wo,ld, containing series of articles, of course very depreciatory, on Gen. Grants soldier ship. Having no idea as to whose courte- am indebted for these, will you allow me through the Times, to say to my un nknown friend that, differing, toto cglo, from the views put forth in them, I have, for tho last few years, since Gen. Grants name has become historical, represented his generalship in my lectures on the mili- tary art to the cadets of tho United States Military Academy in totally different light from that in which he is shown up in these articles, and that, satisfied of the justness of my views, shall continue to due so, so long as I have tho honor to hold my present official position.
 The military renown of Alexander rests upon his conquests of the unmilitary est army, in every respect, that Greece up to this time had produced; that of Hanni bal rests upon his successful passage of the Alps into Italy, opposed only by the bar barols tribes on his line of march, and, subsequently,, by rash and incompetent Roman Consuls; Cosar's on his conquest of the semi-barbarous and rebellious tribes of Gaul, and his subsequent defeat of tho demoralized forces of Pompey. Frederick the Great and Napoleon l., of our period, on their victories over ar- mics greatly inferior to theirs in discipline, and led by generals incompetent from ago and military talent, while Grant has crush ed ono of the most formidable rebellions, whether VIC regard the numbers, the intel Igence and tho means engaged in 1t, that the world has ever witnessed; and as d. legged by his detractors, both at home and abroad, against leaders superior to himself i'll generalship, against troops superior to his own in chivalry, dash, and all other fighting qualities; operating in country every inch of which was throughly known to them, and rendered defensible by all the resources of nature and art skillfully con- bined; and this he did by measures of own positf62hf the the QE5jssq saktng & LOT ms difficult one of the work to be done.
 Happily for American patriotism, the descendants of the men who are now en- gagged in defaming Grants military actions, will 1.-Two to blush for their sires and glory in tho grand results of Grants triumphs; and when these detractions, which are as ephemeral as the sheets which contain them, now scattered broadcast through railroad cars and grog-shops, and their au- thors shall long have passed away from the memory of man, Grants name and militia " fame, like those of the great captains who have preceded him, will loom up, grander, as they recede into tho mists of successive ages.
 Very respectfully yours,
 D. H. MAHEN.

 Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &c., and indeed all tho affections which arise rom malarious, marsh, or miasmatio poisons.

Tho number and importance ofts cures in the ague dis tricts, literally beyond account, and we believe without parallel in the history of Ague medicine. Our pride Is grati1ed by the acknowledgements we receive of the radical cures effected in obstinate cases, and where other remedies had wholly failed. travelling through miasmatic localities, will be pro- tected by taking the AGUE CURE daily.

 and ConN1mption

6uCu 60 SOu8Aos SOAS&S4 " AOOp4LSS
 Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
 and Consumption.
 Probably never before in the whole history of medicine, hss anything won so widely and so deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints Through along men it has risen higher and higher in their estima tion as 1t has become better Known. Its uniform character and power to cure the various affections of the lungs and throat, have made it known as re. liable protector against them. While adapted to mider forms of disease and to young children it is at the time the most efectua remedy that can be given for incipient consumption, and the dan. gerOus affections of the throat and lungs. As pro- vision against sudden attacks of Group, it should be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all arc sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all should be provided with this antidote for them. Although settled Consumption is thought in- curable still great numbers of cases where the dis case seemed settled, have been completely cured, and the patient restored to sound health by the Cherry Pect0r0s. So complete is it's mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat that the most obstinate of them yield to it. When noth- ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee fOraI they subside and disappear
 Singers and Pssbl&c Speakers find great pro. tection from it.
 AstHsssG is always relieved and often wholly cured by it,
 Brosseh1tss is generally cured by taking the Cherry Pector0I in small and frequent doses
 So generally are it's virtues known that VIC need not publish tho certificates of them here, or do more than assure the public that it's qualities arc fully maintained.
