Grant for Hancock.
Galcna, ILL.,, Special to the n. y, Truth

Galena, ILL.,, Special to the n. y, Truth
General Grant stated to-day to an in
innate friend residing here that he fully
approved Of the nomination of Hancock
bv the Democratic party He said it
was an inspiration that will sweep the
country, and chat no candidate the De-
mocracy could have chosen would have
proved 50 acceptable to the masses of
the people General Grant added that
many thousands Of Republicans would
not vote for Garfield, and he was one Of
them. He said the fact that he was
now out Of power forever released him
from any obligation to the Republican
party, and that he himself would vote
for Hancock. This news was spread
around the city, and the course adopted
by Gen. Grant is approved Of by many
prominent Republicans who despair OF
the success OF their party.

Some Of the Republican journals are
limiting that it would be in good taste
for Gen. Hancock, now that he is nom
mated for the Presidency, to resign his
position in the army. Wopld it not be
well for these journals to invite General
Garfield to resign his Senatorship before
troubling themselves about Gen. Han
cock? The records of the War De-
partment do not show that Gen. Scott
resigned when nominated for President,
and Gen. Grant certainly did not resign
his commission in the army when nomi.
mated in 1868. There is no good reason
why Gen. Hancock should not remain
major-gencral until made commander
n-chief.-[N. o. Times.

at the foot of East SiXteenh-st on saturday morn
Ing and word sen6 to the Otfa dock TO have the
dead bodies removed. For some reason the offa
contractor did not remove the carcpsses, and at
noon yesterday they still lay the pier at the foot
the heap of decaying bodies to emit the most sick
eulng Odors, which were perceptible for manv
blocks. They were almost oyerpOwering at the
receiving hospital which the Board of Health
recently built the pier and at
other buildings in the neighborhood. DIR.
Howell the steward of the hospital
visited Police Headquarters yesterday afternoon to
COMPLAIN of the nuisance. and another message was
sent to the oal dock, asking to have the dead dogs
removed ut once. A reply was received that the
force of men and carts duty at the Otfal dock
sunday was not adequate for the removal of the
bodies.
Captain Grswold, the assistant of Sanitary SUI
perntendent Day, at length ordered out the Gisln-
fectIng corps of the Department. and the bodies
were drenched with liquid preparation. which
made the smell less intolerable and less dangerous
