Who wins her heart;

LINCOLN ON HANCOCK.

Reader, whenever you hear Radi.
cal abusing Hancock, quote the re.
marks OF tho "late lamonted" Lincoln
and make him take the water. An
eye witness says;
Soon after President Lincoln issued
the Emancipation Proclamation q mum
Der Of friends from Baltimore called on
him TO extend their congratulations
While in his presence the visitors gave
their opinions as to who was the ablest
General in the army, A number Of
names were mentioned, but President
Lincoln remarked that they had not
struck the right man, and said il wa,
General Hancock.
The countenances of his visitors OK
pressed their surprise, and one OF then
ventured to say that he feared Han
cock was too rash,
eyes" said Mr.. Lincoln, $50 some o
the older Generals have said to me
and | have said to them that have
watched General Hancock's conduct
very carefully, and | have found thai
when he goes into action he achieves
his purpose and comes out with small
or list Of casualties than any of them
Bold he is, but not rash. Why, gen
tlemen, do you know what bis record
was at West Point Z"
And Mr. Lincoln went to his book
shelf and, taking down an army register
showed the position in which Hancock
had graduated, and that, furthermore
in class that was ono of the most
distinguished that had ever graduated
at the Military Academy. Continuing
to speak Of him in the highest terms
he further said
u tell you, gentlemen, that II hls
life and strength are spared, believe
that General Hancock is destined to be
one of the most distinguished men Of
the age, Why, when 1 go down in
the morning to open my maitland !
arise at 4 o'clock-I declare that dc
it in fear and trembling lest may
hear that Hancock has been killed OF
wounded"
