Dallas herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1849-1873, 1867-12-21

TIL" San Antonio Herald says
"the first orders of Gen. Hancock
lead us TO entertain a very favor
able opinion concerning the Gener-.
al and his administration" Col,
Sweet, of the Herald, writes from
New Orleans:
"Wo had the good fortune TO- see
and learn something Of the new
commanding General of the Fifth
Military District, Maj. Gen. W. S.
HANCOCK, and we do not hesitate,
after a steamboat acquaintance Of
some ten days. in, expressing it as
our unqualified opinion, that Texas,
and Louisiana are fortunate, even
at this late hour of trial, in securing
the services of this gallant officer,
soldier and gentleman. If there is
q man in the limits Of the United
States who can administer the laws
of Congress known as the "Military
Bills" &C., in q manner to secure
impartial 2aastice, that man, we be-
licve, is Gen. Hancock" tI.
After giving the rames Of tho
Staff, Col S. continues: j.. .r'.y
During the entire journey. no one
of these official displayed particle
of "gold lace" or "brass buttons" to
remind citizens of a Military Gov.
ernment. On the contrary all was
gentility, sociability and pleasantrW'
We predict that the staff, like the
General, viii do thier- whole dutt.
Gen. Hancock fully appreciates the
Importance of Texas, as q part Ioe'
his command and the propriety of
giving Iyoteetion to her defenceless
frontier against the wild, warrihg,
raiding Comanches. An inspection
of his entire district will SOON Jbc
the order of the day. He assn med
command at nine o'clock this nj brn-
ing. lie rs accompanied to this city
by his most estimable and accom-
plisbed lady, little daughter Ada,
mothcr-in-law, Mrs. RusselB and
brother in law, Oliver D. Russell,
ESQ. the latter in nowise connected
with the military.

REcoNsTRUcTIoN.-The Picayunc
has the following:
p WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-In view OF
the popular condemnation of the
Congressional plan of reconstrue-
ton, as evinced by the late elections
the necessity for an amendment OF
the acts embodying that policy
seems TO have occurred very forcibly
20 Senator Wilson. Thus impressed
/ understood it his intention intro
duce, in the course of the week, o
billI to amend the reconstruction
acts. The principal features Of this
bill are: 1t provides for abolition
of all restrictions on suffrage, re-
moves political disabilities from
those who have aided rebellion,
and allows the question OF conven-
vention or no convention TO be de-
cided by a majority voting instead
of by the majority Of those regis
tered. 1t is some relief to perceive
that the voice Of the people is not
without effect spon-the Senate.
