heads of the crowd, crossed at the top
like the letter X, and looped halter
pendant from the junction, a dozen
men following its slow motion through
the masses, ''Vengeance!" was the cry.
On the right, suddenly, the shout rose,
"The Worldw "The World" "The
office of the World!' "World!"
"Worldr and a movement of perhaps
5000 or 10000 turning their faces in
the direction of that building began
to be executed. 1t was a critical mo-
ment. What might come no one
could tell, did that crowd get in front
of that office Police and military
would have availed little or been too
late. A telegram had just been read
from Washington, Seward is dying"
Just then, at that juncture, man
stepped forward with small flag in
his hand, and beckoned to the crowd.
Another telegram from Washing
ton!' And then, in the awful still
ness Of the crisis, taking advantage of
the hesitation of the crowd, whose
steps had been arrested a moment, a
right arm was lifted skyward, and
voice, clear and steady, loud and dis
tinct, spoke out: Fellow-citizens!
Clouds and darkness are round about
Him! His pavilion is dark waters and
thick clouds of the skies! Justice and
Judgment are the establishment of his
throne! Mercy and truth shall go
before his face. Fellow-citizens
God reigns, and the Government at
Washington still hves!' The effect
was tremendous. The crowd stood
riveted to the ground in awe, gazing
at the motionless orator, and thinking
of God and the security of the Govern
ment in that hour. AS the boiling
wave subsidies and settles to the sea
when some strong wind beats it down,
so the tumult of the people sank and
became still. All took it as Divine
omen. 1t was triumph of eloquence,
inspired by the moment, such as falls
to but one mans lot, and that but
once in a century. The genius of
Webster, Choate, Everett, Seward,
never equaled it. What might have
happened if the surging and ma1dened
mob had been let loose, none can tell.
The man for the crisis was on the
spot, more potent than Napoleon's
guns at Paris. l inquired what was
his name. The answer Cans; i9,,a Low

The Democratic party, after bat
tling the Republican party unsuccess-
fully for twenty years, now comes out
with candidate whose only credita-
BILE acts were his efforts in behalf of
the Republican party during the war,
and even has him attempt to write a
Republican Letter. Is not all this a
square admission that the Republican
party IS the party of progress and
good government?

Mrs. Surratt Again.
Gen. Hancock, in his letter to Gen.
Sherman, made public on last Sunday

Gen. Hancock, in his letter to Gen
Sherman, made public on last Sunday
week, says:
The army should have nothing to do with the elec
ton or inauguration Of Presidents The people elec
sion who he is We of the army have only to obey hi:
they may be lawful. Our commissions express that
That is, the military officer is to be
the Judge, Cat his peril, Of course)
whether mandate Of the president be
lawful or4 not. Suppose the suspen-
sion of the writ Of habeas corpus issued
by President Johnson, in the Surratt
case, had been issued before the writ
was served ON Gen. Hancock, what was
his plain duty, as laid down in the
Sherman letter?
The constitution provides, Article
1, section 9, The privilege of the
writ of habeas corpus shall not be sus-
pended, unless when, in cases of re-
bellion or invasion, the public safety
may require it"
VIII Gen. Hancock now say that
there was rebellion or invasion on the
7th day of July, 1865? The war had
ended three months before that date.
Then was it not his duty to disobey
the mandate of the President, under
the rule laid down by himself, in the
Sherman letter? Any one, with half
sense, must have known that this man
date was unlawful, under the provi-
sions Of the constitution.
That is not the worst feature of
this case. Mr.. Gooding, who was
Marshal of the District Of Columbia
at the time, and who served the writ
of habeas corpus on Gen. Hancock, in
a recent speech says that Hancock
had~no orders suspending the writ at
the time it was served upon him, but
that he hunted up the Secretary Of
War, to get the writ suspended; and
the Circleville Democrat, edited by A.
R. Van Cleaf, a member of the Ohio
Senate, has the manliness to admit all
this, in the following editorial:
A writ Of hqheas corpus was issued g early on the
tion, which was served upon Gen. Hancock who
the writ the hands of the Secretary of
War to the President, who made the return his
own signature, suspending the writ in the case of
ceeded with. and the military authorities were
Obliged proceed ordered by the President of the
United States and other action would have rendered
them liable to court martial and certain dismissal
from the service.

A Democrat was he;
And Oh! 'twould do you good to scan
That sprig of chivalry-
And hear him spouting, loud and free,
About ''the glorious victory
AT Gettysburg the armies met
And Joined in deadly fray;
with heroes blood the ground was wet,
And at the close of day
Hundreds lay dead-for this must be,
At every famous victory.
There Hancock charged the legions strong.
And moved the traitors down:
And as he rode, the lines along.
The awe-inspiring frown
Upon his face, sad to see,
After the famous victory
But, friend,'' we asked him, ''wherc were you
Throughout the deadly fight?
Were YOU there, clad in Union blue,
And battling for thearight?
For, battling strong it takes, yor-zee,-
To gain glorious victory

Then his face assumed deeper red:

Decidedly, yes. Without them life is

A CLEVELAND LAWYER. defending

A CLEVELAND lawyer, defending a
handsome young lady, charged with
larceny, closed his appeal to the jury
thus: Gentlemen, you may hang the
ocean on a grapevine to dry, lasso an
avalanche, pin napkin to the mouth
of a volcano, skim the clouds from the
sky with teaspoon, throw salt on the
tail of our noble American eagle,
whose sleepless eye watches over the
welfare of our nation, paste For rent

a moment delude yourself with the
idea that this charming girl is guilty
of the charge preferred against her"
The jury acquitted her without leav-
ing their seats.

GEN. HANCOCK, in his letter Of ac-
ceptance, advocates the right of every
man to enjoy the fruits Of his labor.
Thus, if a Chinaman can come here
and labor for nine dollars month
and board himself, Gen. Hancock is
willing to protect him in the enjoy
ment Of his nine dollars. That's the
broad view the General takes of the
labor question.
