Complimentary to Gen. Winfield Scott
Hancock.

WAsHINGToN, Dee. lS.-The President
sent message to congress to-day, in which
he earnestly approves of the course of Gen.
Hancock in his administration of affairs in
the Fifth Military District. After reviewing
General Hancock's order, bearing date Nov.
g. and drawing comparison between its
author and the illustrious Washington, the
President concludes as follows:
. ~ am far from saying that General Han
cock is the only officer of the American army
who is influenced by the example of Wash
lngton. Doubtless thousands of them are
faithfully devoted to the principles for which
the men of the revolution laid down their
lives, but distinguished honor belongs to
him, for being the first officer in high COM
mand, south of the Potomac. since the close
of the civil war, who has given yutteranee to
these noble sentiments In the form of a mil.
itary order. l respectfully suggest tozeon-
gress that some public recognition of Gener
al Hancock's patriotic conduct is due, if not
to him to the friends of law and Justice
throughout the country. of such an act
as his, at such time, it is but fitting that its
dignity should he indicated and virtue pro
claimed, SO ats value as an example may not
be lost torthe nation. -...-.
