THE LIFE OF WINFIELD SCOTT HANCOCK (;
Personal. military and political, BY Rev ID. X.
JUNKIN, ID. D., late chaplain United States navy,
and FRANK II. NORTON, formerly assistant libra
rian Aston library. Illustrated. New York: d.
Appleton Co.
This volume is q revision, condensation and
completion by the pen Of Mr.. Norton of the
life of General Hancock. DR.. Junkin, the biog-
rapher, was an ardent admirer of his subject,
either for his military and personal excellences
or for his ardent piety. Be it for either or for
all, the historian seems to have written under
an enchantment which gives the liveliest coll
orings to the character it delneates. OF
course the memoirs Of General Hancock, had
they been ten fold moro admira BILE than they
are, would have slept in the pigeon-hole of the
historian but for his nomination for the presi-
dency, aud now history is not Of half as much
importance to his cause as it is to the biogra-
pliers and publishers. The people who support
General Hancock will pay little regard to his.
tory or consistency in yielding their support
to his advancement. They are guided by other
lights which point to success regardless Of
merit and hence this publication is of far les:
consequence to him than to those engaged in
the enterprise of its publication. 1t is very
likely a faithful history of the life and services
of an able general who fought well to preserve
the union, but who is actuated now by an am
bition that misleads and brings him into q sac
| cor fusion of relation,

his First division, under CALDWELL, passing
at a right shoulder shift "ovcr against the
enemy" like a thin blue ribbon? Alas
ribbon soon torn and ragged, but with
every man doing his duty without finch

Concede, then, that HANCOCK did well
as corps cOmmander-but he never did
more than WE'LL that he was personally
brave-but so were the men in the ranks he
commanded. There his record as a soldier
a general, closes. As statesman he bore
up the military end of JoHNsoN's admins

uniform, perhaps, during that very memoir
able swing around the circle" and was
military governor of several states until
relieved by GRANT, playing into the hands
of rebels and ku klux in their oppression

helped JOHNSON dig political grave, and
at the same time threw out the first spade
full from hole into which lie will CRATE

and wait until General WALKER gets
" through with the work which he has as
yet hardly begun" This is queer advice
to come from an enterprising newspaper
man like Colonel MCCLURE His expert
ence must have taught him little if he has
not learned that officials always are the last
to awake to defects in their own work.
The critical eye of the Times has been very
active in the ruts of Philadelphia officials,
and doubtless many of them have wished
its Suspicious" reporters and editors would
keep quiet and wait" Nevertheless, the
Times continues to poke and prod and stir
to the discomfort of officials. We have
never doubted that if fraud has been
attempted, all that was necessary to
defeat it was to call attention to it, aud we
are glad to inform the Times that the census
bureau has begun work on South Carolina
returns, and that official suspicious" have
been awakened which will certainly result
in amended returns.

SHALL CRIME DE prRpErUArEpq

The crime of reconstructing the union on
its present basis at the close Of the war is
becoming more and more apparent each
day. 1t was crime to our national unity
and peace to rehabilitate the states without
q probation OF at least decade. 1t was a
crime to true loyalty to place any section of
the country in the power of disloyalty after
having conquered it. 1t was q crime to
give freedom and citizenship to the colored
race and then abandon il to the mercy Of
unreconstructed rebels. TWAS q crime to de-
sert the white republicans Of the south, leav-
ing them to the shot gun, rifle and bowie
knife, without an effort, even though it in
volved bloodshed, to protect them in az their
rights of citizenship. All this and more was
q crime, the bitterest fruits of which we are
| reaping to-day in the methods that have
been introduced into our political contests
since the assassination of LINCOLN. Intim-
idation, fraud, outrage and murder are
among these methods, and they to-day
rule and will control the results of the pend
ing election in at least nine of the southern
states. All these states would be republican
! in this contest if free election and q fair
count were guaran teed within them. But
these are not tolerated. The democratic
party holds 1873 electoral votes rs a part of
the fruits of this great crime They hope,
we trust vainly, TO capture enough votes in
the north to secure 1s5 votes and declare
HANCOCK elected. The question will then
arise whether or not the great north and
northwest will submit supinely to the
results of such shameless fraud. These
free and honest sections of the nation may
submit peacefully, but we do not believe
it. An attempt to break the union and
capture the government by the sword and
bayonet il no more crime than to subvert
it by frauds at the ballot-box, and we give
notice that If the democratic party hopes to
attain power by It's present metnous "a,
crime will not be accomplished without
such resistance rs the right is justified in
interposing against wrong whenever and
wherever it presents itself. The nation
is not any more prepared now to submit
supinely to- fraud as controlling powe
than it was in 1861 to yield without resist
ance to armed rebellion. The cases ar,
parallel and the consequences may b.
looked upon as coincident. Power, in on
opinion, cannot be peacefully and success
fully wrested from the republican part.

weak now. It will be confined to Governors

York and Brooklyn before the ides of October.

over the democratic bolt against Governor
Colquitt's reelection. If his opponents can
defeat him by defeating Hancock it thinks
they will not hesitate to do so. Ben Hill IL

says that the whole policy of the democratic
leaders Is to cover what Hampton has revealed

Speaking Of the recent effort to effect har-
mony in the democratic party of New York
by calling q state convention in which the
Tammany and TILDEN factions of the city
are to be equally represented, the New York
Herald says:
A call is to be issued for a regular democratic
state convention at Saratoga on September 2s
"A very late day. BY that time the prospect
of carrying the state for HANCOCK will
have become so dubious that there will either
be a reunion in his interest or full assertion
of the Tammany claims with view to the
city nominations. Meanwhile there will be
truce and jealous Watching for opportuni'
ties, with but a slender prospect that the
rich men of tho TILDEN faction will con-
tribute to tho election funds of the party.

The Richmond Dispatch is more honest
than the democratic organ of this city,
After quoting the certificate signed by
Messrs STUART, TINsLEY, GoRDoN and
SYLE of Staunton, TO the truth of the re-
port of HAMPToN's speech made by the
Valley Yhginian, the Dispatch says;
These gentlemen are all democrats. They
certainly would not wrong General HAMPTON
in any way. Mr.. YosT has clearly made ont
his case and General HAMPTON was indis

remarks had been correctly reported. He No

TIE entire democratic vote in Alabama
for T1LDEN in 1876 was 100000, and now
the democrats of that state claim $4,000
majority. This is within 10000 of their
entire vote four years ago, and yet the
greenback party has recruited more than
10000 votes out of that party since that
time. In this case the fraud has been
overdone to an extent that is somewhat
alarming to tho democrats themselves. II

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE.
There seems to be q determination ON the
part of some republicans to assist the DEM
ocrats in their effort TO boost HANCOCK
above his comrades and parade him as the
general of generals, the soldier of soldiers.
without wishing to rob any man of his lau-
rels, would it not be well ut the beginning to
place HANCOCK where he belongs-no
better nor worse than many whose names
are wel-nigh forgotten, though deserving
something better at our hands. There are.

Alas! that not few have faded from the

But why repeat their names? They were

WE are grieved at the dilemma of WADE
HAMPTON about that speech. According
to STUART, TISsLEY, HUTCHINs and the
Post, it would appear, as near as we can
make ont after much study, that he said it,
but denies it; then that he denies that he
denies it; then admits; then denies that he
admits; then says he said it but didn't
mean it then says lie meant it but didn't
say it; then says that if he said it it was
unsupported, and if he didn't say it il
was misrepresented; then that if he said
It it was true; if he didn't say it it was
false; that whether he said it or not, and
whether he meant it or not they have lied
about it, and to prevent being lied about he
will hereafter stop saying and stop denying

THE democrats pretend to latter them

HURD is very boastful, not only of his own
election in republican district, but of
giving the electoral vote for HANCOCK in
that decidedly republican state. 1t re-
mains for the republicans of Ohio to i'm
peach these assumptions at the ballot-box.
They can do it If they will, and, as HURD
says great disappointment is in store for
the republicans of the country if they dc
not give at least 10000 majority for GAR,

A NUMBER of persons have communicated
with THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN in diff
ferent ways calling our attention TO the
fact that "The Bonny Blue Flag" seemed to
be fayorite mir with the bands on the
night Of the democratic ratification meet
ing; that some of the Virginia horsemen
when they turned into Four-and-a-half
street dedantly yelled ave are the Virginia
"rcbels,n and to other circumstances of a
similar nature occurring along the line of
the procession. If such things were pub
lshed it is probable, as in the case of WADE
HAMPToN's speech, an attempt would be
made to make the thousands Of witnesses
believe that their eyes and ears had de-
ceived them and that "JoHN BRowN'a
"Body" had been mistaken for "The benny
"Blue Flag" and patriotic cheers for the
union had been distorted by imagination
into defiant rebel yells.
