PRESIDENT GRANT AND THE CINC1NEATl
CONVENTION Charles w. Harrison, OF Rich
mond, Va, called on the President few
DAYS ago with letter OF introduction from
Colonel Mosby. The object OF MIR. Harrl-
sons visit was to consult the President in
relation to instructing the Virginia Repub-
lican delegates as to the proper candidate to
vote for at the Cincinnati Convention. The
President received the gentleman kindly,
and expressed himself with more than usual
freedom. Mr.. Harrison represents large
number Of Republicans in his Staec, and he
explained the object Of his visit without
reserve to friend, who says the result OF
the interview was that President Grant
spoke highly Of Senator Conkling, and re-
ferrcd to him Us the coming man in terms
so plain that Mr.. Harrison saw at once that
the Senator from New York would receive
the undivided support of the Administration
in the coming campaign. The gallant Viz
gilman will 60 home and report to his
friends accordingly. Correspondence Neo

The STHwAET-HILToN TRANSFER.-Ti
will OF the late A. Il. Stewart has not only
disappointed many persons in New York
who had expected that much OF his fortune
would be bestowed upon public charities,
but the action OF his widow since in dispos-
ing of his partnership interests to Judge
Hilton in exchange for the one million dol
lars that Mr.. Stewart bequeathed to that
friend also takes the New Workers greatly
by surprise. The will appointed Judge Hill
ton to act for Mr.. Stewart Gin managing,
closing, and winding UP his partnership
business and affairs" directing the Judge
"while so acting to exercise sound dis
erection in bringing his partnership affairs to
termination and discharging all obligations
connected herewith" "for which service"
he gave to the Judge the one million OF dol
lars in question.

Another Ashantee War.

Notwithstanding the injuries inflicted by Sir Garnet Wolseley upon the king of Ashantee, undeterred by the fall of that sacred tree in the marketplace of Coomassie, which was universally rev erenced in the light of the palladium of Ashantee, and whose fall struck dismay into the hearts of every person through out the kingdom, Coffee Calcalli has again raised the standard of contest. Scarcely had our forces been withdrawn from the gold coast, says letter to the London Stand0rd, than the defeated king made an attempt to rally his shat tered army around him, and make de- however, he was frustrated by his being deposed from the skull decorated stool of his ancestors, owing to the indelible disgrace he had brought upon the Ashantee name by allowing himself to be defeated and retain his life. By Ashantee laws, when a person goes out to fighthe is expe cted to conquer or die, many instances being known where, when discontinue seemed imminent, Q caboceer has put an end to his life by his own act rather than incur the penal ty to which he was liable by return to his sovereign in disgrace.
 Cofee's successor was scarcely seated on the stool than he begun a series of incursions upon those of his quondam allies who preferred independence or the protection of the British government to again subjecting their necks to the cruel yoke of Ashantee. The Diwabins were in this way so harassed by the Ashantee raids that, after in vain at tempting to resist them, they were forced to leave their own country, and consequently crossed the frontier and overran Akim. The Akims, fearing lest the Ashantees should cross the boundary of the Protectorate after their enemies, suspended all trade, and since then have been literally living from hand to mouth. Combined with the liberation of the slaves, the two evils occurring simulta- neously have resulted in bringing about ! desperate state of affairs in their coun- try.
 Urged on by the faithful, or more probably place hunting retainers, Coffee Calcalli has again made an attempt to recover his former position; but, accord. ing to news received by the last mail, with but i'll success, for, if report be correct, Mensatay has not only defeated, but taken the late king prisoner.

Consumption.

FRANKFoRT, N. Y, Nov. l, 186S
 In the fall of 1S47 I took a severe cold, which settled upon my lungs, where it re- mained without relaxation. I tried several kinds of medicine, and consulted several phy- siciaus, but received no benefit. The fail of 1848 found me completely prostrated-con- fined to my bed with the came severe cough. accompanied by severe pain in my side, pro fuse sweats and restless nights. My family and friends, as well as myselt, supposed my time to die had come. At this crisis sent for 8 bottle of Wistars Balsam of W,ld Cherry, and, wonderful to relate, before had used the first bottle my cough greatly subsided, my night swests left me, my appetite returned, my pulse became regular. slept soundly, and was soon able to go out and attend to business I then consulted an able physician in relation to the course I had pursued and tic medicine had taken. He advised me to ntlnue to use the Balsam, which did, and fo md myself 8 we'll man; and now, at an age exceeding fifty years, enjoy as good heath as ever before. ,.'Fft
 Whenever, during the last ten years, I have found an individual suffering from cough, have always recommended the BaIsam, and Tn numerous cases have sent it gratuitously to the suffering poor. In conclusion would say, what have said great many times be- fore, that the Baisam, with Gods blessing, saved my life. HORACE Co oL1paE. '
