GENERAL HANCOCK As A LEADER.

We have not been surprised that repub'
lican speakers have omitted every thing
like abuse of General HANCOCK in their
addresses, though his record is very vul.
nemble, for the reason that the republican
side of the campaign should contrast with
their opponents in regard 10 personal crit.
cism. But we have been surprised at that
display of magnanimity which INDUCES in
eulogy Of him as a military officer This is
too mngnanimous by far, for it is not fully
justified by the facts. General HANCOCK
was scarcely known outside his regi.
ment before the rebellion broke
out, but when that struggle came he
had an ample field for the exercise of
such abilities rs his mental and moral
organization, allied to high military train
ing at the public expense, afforded him.
He entered that field with superior oppor.
of character us q man and officer. The
path was open, and a fair chance was given
him as the architect of his own military
fortunes and what were his achieve.
ments? To say that his record reveals
more than an average reputation for
worth would be to utter that which history
does not justify. The only point at which
he distinguished himself even in fair
degree was at Gettysburg, and it is alleged
that in that important battle he claims for
himself or his friends claim for him,
laurcls that rightfully belong to others
General HANCOCK did not exhibit remarka-
bic abilities either as strategist, organizer
or heroic leader of men in the hour of
battle, but he did develop, on the march
and in camp, qualities of character in the
treltment of his troops, which neither
dignity nor ennoble him rs gentleman,
nor as humane man. Such is the reputa-
tation that his army gives him, and hence
he is not drawing rs largely upon the favor
of the soldier class who know him ~ his
friends have anticipated His military
record is of 10 advantage to him.

IL the city of New York fusion does
not fuse as readily as was anticipated by
some of the flsionists, The negotiations
that have been pending over the city offices
have not as yet borne much fruit The
serious bone of contention is the mayoralty,
n position which is important for the rea-
son that the mayor has the app ointment of
several very important heads of depart
ments. The democrats are in a troublous
condition even now, and it Is said that
General HANCOCK deeply regrets that "this
thing" has not been settled before now,
aud he is apprehensye that if the sQuabble
is continued much longer the unity of the
party there will he seriously impaired.

THE deialcation Of New Orleans sheriff
to the amount of 100000 has been kept
secret by the state officials for eight months
The investigation is likely to disclose a
widespread conspiracy to defraud the state
among high officials. The present govern
ments of Louisiana and New Orleans are
rotten to the core, and are fine samples of
what white league X. X, X, home-rule
democracy, is capable of producing. 1t was
to put in power such men that legal
government was overthrown by combina-
ton of fraud force aud intrigue.

Nor all the counties of South Carolina
have been enthuscd over sham election.
The Charleston Ncirs and Courier mourns
because Yorkville greeted the democratic
speakers with a slim attendance. The
" stores were not closed, there was but one
"red-shirt club present, there were no
ladies present, and the schools were
mot even dismissed to mark the day Ms II
holiday" The county chairman made sew
eral excuses, but did not touch the real one,
which was that the people have more sense
than the leaders. Why should there be
time and money lost in attending meetings
when the whole thing is decided in the
countp The Ne,cs and Courier says: "Nev-
thcless, York county will vote her whole
democratic strength in November" or
course she will, and one or two thousand
moro il it is needed.

HANCOCK, when he wrote to NEFF,
thought there were some rebel claims, but
it was Il bad thing for candidates to give
pledges. A few days later he thought
there were no rebel claims, and proceeded
to give some pledges. This shows the firm
ness of mind of the greatest statesman of
the time, and how difficult it would be to
get him to change when the brigadiers all
come down upon him in dead earnest.

THERE is now reported to be 1000 ma

The Times continues:

attempt that now. "rhe regular organiza-

was completed it was found that the hood.

will there be relief until the organization

rule of the bourbon democratic party is not
only tolerated, but encouraged.

THE PRorILoaRApH. The profilo-
graph is Il new automatic device for
tracing the profile of a road or dis
tance. 1t consists essentially of a
two-wheeled carriage having sus-
pended from the body between the
wheels heavy pendulum, free to
swing in line with the direction in
which the carriage moves. AS the
carriage is drawn by horse over
the ground, the pendulum maintains
vertical position whether moving
on q level or up or down hill. The
upper end of the pendulum, above
the point of support, carries PEN
Gil that touches ribbon of paper
moved by clockwork or by the move
ment of the wheels of the carriage,
and, Us long as the carriage is NOV
ing makes trace on the paper that
is, as may be seen, profile of the
country passed over by the machine.
At the same time one of the wheels,
by a simple 'pedometric device, gives
the distance traversed and makes a
scale for comparison with the pro.
tiie trace, to show the relations of
the two measures of hight and dis
tance passed over by the machine.

Coop News FOR THE COAST. The
Pacific Coast, always u favored coun-
try, now has additional reasons to
be thankful.
A pamphlet just published by
Professor Grimmer asserts that the
period from 1880 to 1887 will be one
of universal carnival.of death every
where except on this Coast. Asia
will be depopulated, Europe nearly
so, and America will lose fifteen mil
lious of her people. Besides plaques
we are to have storms and tidal
waves, mountains are to " toss their
heads through the choicest Valleys"
navigators will be lost by the thou
sand, owing to the capricious deilec-
tions of the magnetic needle, and
islands will appear and disappear in
mid ocean. Aud all the beasts,
birds and fishes will be diseased,
famine and civil strife will destroy
most of the human beings left alive
by the plague, and finally "two
years of tire"-1SS5 to 1SS7-will
rage with fury IN every part OF the
globe. In 1887 the "Star of Beth
lehem" will reappear in Cassiopa' s
chair" the immediate results being
universal war and poltentious floods
and shipwreoks. North America is
again to Ie involved in civil war
unless a " Napoleon" arises to quell
it, but during these terrible days
the Pacific Coast States will be a
veritable paradise of peace compared
to the EelliSh strife :hst will be
waged throughout the world. The
few people that may manage to sur
vive till 1883 will have reason to be
thankful.

FEMALE BEAUTY.-In fact, female
beauty is a rarity in every other
country in the world except this ia
vored land. We leave out Of ques-
ton the German, Russian, and Sean
'dinavian nations, for their beauty is
almost u myth. In Italy there is a
stately beauty of form and richness
OF color among the peasants, accom-
panied by a stoli6. impassiveness;
the vaunted beauties of Spain are
dunpy little women, with sallow
faces and no intelligence. In Vienna
alone, OF all the great cities in Eu
rope, beauty is as common among
women as it is in st. Louis and Bal
timore, and there the beauty comes
from tho Hungarians, across the
river. In Paris there is type of
female beauty, dainty, refined and
exquisite, but fragile aud delicate as
the hot-houso exotic, which it re-
sembles, rather than the blooming
rosebud Of an American cottage sar-
'den.-&. Louis Repablican.
