The Cincinnati Times contains the follow
ing from its Washington correspondent
under date of February H. 1t is out of
this, undoubtedly, that the New Orleans
Picayune manufactured its startling special
from washington, in it's issue of yesterday
morning:
Two gentlemen who visited the White
House, Thursday, tell of an interesting and
significant conversation with Colonel Fred
Grant on the third term question. They
we're speaking of the candidates for the
next Republican nomination for President,
when Fred burst out with an emphasis and
earnestness, that his hearers cay convinced
them Of his sincerity: 1T anybody thinks
there's any third term he is mistaken.
Father don't want to be President any
more, and won't accept q nomination if the
Cincinnati convention offers it to him. This
was repeated in substance several times.
The conversation turning to the chances Of
the different candidates, Fred expressed
upbounded admiration for Conkling, re-
marking: "Heis statesman, q good Re-
publican and just the man for President"
He added the hope that Conkling would
get the nomination, and said he thought lie
would slip in as Lincoln did in 1860. The
gentlemen who heard him believe he but
echoed the sentiments Of his father.
