THERE is one cause for regretting the
nomination of Gen. Hancock for the Presi-
dency, but it is the only one. His election
will compel him to resign his position in the
army and result in the promotion of Head
quarters-in-the- saddle Pope, the ranking
brigadier, to major generalcy. Pope's
presence in the army has long been felt to
be disgrace to the country, and his further
elevation would cause feeling of regret not
only in the army but in all classes of society.

H1s SERVICES IN THE PENINSULA.

On the 9th of June, 1862, Hancock, who
was then at Golding's Farm, in the Peninsu-
la, received severe attack from the enemy.
He repulsed it and continued the fighting far
into the night, the contending forces firing
at each other in close quarters in the dark.
This battle of Hsncock's was one of the
prandest spectacles of the war, and will never
be forgotten by the army of the Potomac.
On the 28th of June, 1862, Hancock was
heavily engaged at Gsrnett's Hill, as he was
at Savage Station on the 18th and at White
Oak Swamp on the 3Oth. His troops fought
four battles in as many days, and in every
one of them we're lead by Hancock in per-
son. He never knew fear himself and could
not tolerate it in others. An officer, who
had his men in tight place, rode up to the
general and said: General, my men are
all being killed; may not withdraw them q
little out of the fire?"
"No,n replied Hancock, 81 hope we shall
be able to advance soon."
"Then we shall all be killed." respond
inply replied the officer.
Every vel" said Hancock; return to your
troops, and if you fall you will have the sat
isfsction of knowing you have died for your
country"

Final consideration of salaries was post

Stormed at by shot and shell,
Boldly he rode, and we'll.
Every soldier felt his heart thrill as he
witnessed the magnificent courage of his
General, and he resolved to do something
that day which would equal ii in daring. just
as Hancock reached the left of his line the
rebel batteries ceased to play, and their in
fantry, $4,000 strong, were seen emerging
from the woods and advancing up the hill

the real attack. Turning his horse he rode
slowly up his line from left to right, holding
his hat in his hsnd, bowling and smiling To
the troops as they lay fiat on the ground.
Hardly had he reached the right of the
line when the men, who, inspired by
the courage of their General, could nov
hardly restrain themselves, received orders to
attack the advancing rebels. Eighty guns
which Hancock had copcentra.ed opened
their brsZen mouths aDd streams OF blne
bullets flew from the muzzles of our rifles
to the breasts of the confederates. 1t was
an awful day and Longstreet's "Old Guard
of the South" melted away like wax under
that terrible fire. OF the Ii, 900 who came
to the attack, 5000 fell or we're captured on
the hillside. Thirty stand of colors and an
immense number of small arms wers
taken. Hancock was everywhere, riding the
storm of battle as if he bore charmed life.

When the aide delivered this message to
General Meade and added his General was

States" and then followed this important
reservation:
Except the eighth section of the act prepare
tory to the admission of Missouri into the
Union, approved March, 6, 1920, which was su-
perseded by the principles of the legislation OF
ures, and is hereby declared imperative.
Mr.. English proposed to strike out this
exception and insert the following:
Provided that nothing in this act shall be SO
construed as to prevent the people of said terri
tory, through the properly constituted leglsla-
tive authority, from passing such laws In rela-
ton to the institution OF slavery, not inconsis-
tent with the constitution of the United States,
as they may deem best adapted to their locality
and most conducive to their happiness and
welfare; and SO much of any existing act of
Congress as may conflict with the above right
of the people to regulate their domestic insti-
buttons in their own way be, aud the same is
hereby repealed.
In the history of this subject, given in the
first volume of Mr.. Horace Greeley's "Amer-
lean Conflict" the opinion is suppressed that
this proposition of Mr. English could not
have been defeated on cali Of the yeas and
nays, aud the althor goes on to explain and
condemn the new and ingenious parliament
ary maneuvre resorted to at that time,
which cut off all amendments but the sub

ponents of the measure In the House were
precluded from proposing any amendments
or notifications whatever, when it is moral
Iy certain that, had they been permitted to
do so, some such amendment as Governor
Chase's or Mr.. English's would have been
carried" The substance, however, of the
notifications proposed by Mr.. English final

by Mr. Douglass in the Senats as sn

squivocal. His knowledge of business fnan-
oes and of the needs of the country was
comprehensive. He was opposed to infia-
ton, and as certainly opposed TO extreme
and hasty legislation looking to forced re-
sumption. With regard to
gold and silver as the
standards Of value, and to the absolute nee
essity of ultimate resumption, no man in
the country was more pronounced in his de-
clarations. The heresy of an irredeemable
paper currency found in Mr.. English an I'M
compromising opponeut-as result his
financial record isiwithout blemish. MIR.
English presided over this bank over four
teen years, to the entire satisfaction of the
stockholders, and then, in 1877, in the full
meridian of financial success, he resigned
the presidency and retired from active bust
ness, as he had years before retired from &C
tive politics as an officeholder when in the
full tide of political success. Faithful to
every trust, he retained the good opinion of
associates then, as he had of his constitu-
ents when he retired from Congress.
The foregoing incidents of an exception
ally active and successful life bring its his
tory down to 1877, when Mr.. English,
crowned with SUCCESS in every undertaking,
with an honorable political and business rec
ord and at the very meridian of his powers,
sought the retirement of private life to enjoy
in quiet serenity the we'll earned trophies of
former years. But in this retirement Mr..
English was not unmindful Of his country
nor neglecrfnl Of the interests of the Demo
cratic party.

r1es and large shops. More than once
the question has been raised as to the
making of town out of the said village,
but the inhabitants Of it have always
vigorously resisted it by deed as well az
by money, being fully aware that If 1t
happened their self administration and
independence would be at an end.
The trade of the village has restricted
itself to the one speciality OF leathern
wares, which has thrlved so well that
there are now several 'mllllonaires' found
among the peasants. l saw lately gen.
tleman who came direct from Boutourh-
novka to conduct some business with one
OF our richest men, and when the latter
called upon him he desired the servant
TO announce him as the 'peasant Trot-
motf." When my friend in the course of
the conversation asked him why he cali
ed himself peasant now, having been a
wealthy merchant, the other replied that
he had indeed sccond-class license for
commerce, but that it is only business
matter, and that he had always been and
would always remain peasant of Bou-
tourlinovka. In fact the last denomina-
ton had become something like noble
title. They are free from debt and
wealthy, they are an instructed and en-
terprising people, and enjoy almost az
much freedom as they would have IN a
constitutional country. And all this be-
cause they were allowed to act ON their
own account without special teachers
being sent to them in order to apply any
system invented tor the purpose, and
without any nihilist cnlightening them
as to their true wants and benefits.

The EIeDhant.

One day, children, when the menag-
erie had been quiet for long time, the
hYena was looking so lonesome and
desolate that the elephant said he re-
minded him of the howl of the wilder
ness" every time he spoke. "You can't
prove it" said the hyena. "You pel-i-
can" said the elephant, which was
neither good English, good grammar,
nor good fun, and nobody laughed but
the elephant, don't you know it's no
consequence what you think in this
show?" The bison interfered here. and
said the 'possum might not be a very
harte-beast, but he had a right to speak
if" Well, well, old buffaloafer, !"
laughed the elephant, e I reckon you're
here as bisonifcation Of justice, are
you, you old bison of gun? I'd like
to see anybody pull the wool over your
eyes" The bay mule down in the
corner remarked that he'd like to see
anybody pull the wool on the end of
his tail, but nobody let on they heard
him. Then, when the eagle tried to
say something, the elephant asked him
if he hadn't just got off Sixth Ward
political transparency, ard then said he
thought he remembered seeing him on
BARRIERS pole. Then the bear spoke
and said they'd had enough of that
nonsense; and the elephant told him
ned better haul himself inside the hat
store before it rained, and asked if soft
felt would be much worn this winter.
And then he finally got the monkey to
crying by calling him Mr.. Darwin, and
telling him he looked enough like q
man to run for Congress. And in a
little while he had the menagerie in
such an uproar that the lights had to
be put out and the people sent home.
Land, yes, children, the trouble they
used to have with the elephant no
tongue can tell. He was always such q
tease.-Bob Burdette.

THE sORCERIES OF SCIENCE.
AsoNG BY AN OLD sCHooLMAsrER.


Day by day, in this wonderful age,
Is announced some wonderful lnVentOn
Fit to puzzle the brains OF a sage
And far past my own comprehension.
You can talk, by The telephone wire,
Seas DER with wonderful celebrity;
To the photograph they that aspire
May their voices transmit to posterlty.
In nv youth twas once thought vain dream
That the streets could be Lighted with gas
To expect locomOtion from steam
Was accounted the hope of an ass.
A gutfaw, as of yesterday, rings
In mine ears from the days long ago
When at what seemed ridiculous, Things,
Our grandfathers laughed Ho! no! ho!
And | still have some fear in my mind
That the science will end In CONFUSION;
That its marvels at last we shall lind
To have been but Old Harry's illusion.
We shall suddenly wake up some day,
In establishment around us TO stare,
TO find visions have vanished away
And the good old times still as they were
Oh, for days on which memory dwells,
When the Indigenous were sweet with musk
roses!
What if cesspools were sunk close to wells,
And our pigsties right under our noses?
From your sewers what good have you got,
Beyond fever germs and bacteria!
Till they made us drain, typhoid was not,
And we'd no such disease as diphtheria.
Now, Knights to be turned into day,
The electric light will give rise,
I've no doubt, with its dazzling display,
To some novel disease of the eyes.
'Gainst the new light stand by the old,
Though their sheen by comparison suffers
Oh. for your good old days, dip and mold,
With your finder box, matches and shutters

Having a Good Time.

Ny son, enjoy yourself. Have good
time; pleasure is eminently right and
proper. but a good time isn't secured by
headache that lasts all the next day.
The simplest pleasures are the most last
ing. After you have spent two. years in
Europe, you will come and sit down by
your own fireside and think Of picnic
that you went to one afternoon in June,
that cost you Just sixty-fve cents. The
:'good times" that you daren't take your
wife to, my son, that you would lie about
rather than have your sister know about
them, the goodness of them never
comes back to refresh and gladden. your
heart as does the memory of that sixty
five cent picnic, when you chartered non-
sense with the girl you loved, and laugh
ed just as the leaves rustled, because you
couldn't help it. The 'good time" that
wakes in the morning and wonders where
it was and who saw it and where
all its money is gone; the good time that
tails itself off with headache, there's
precious little fun in that. And it only
takes very little bitterness of that kind
to poison and cloud the memories of your
past. 1t doesn't take many such ''good
times.'' my boy, to mingle tears with
your bread and gall with your drink.
The sting is the smallest part of the bee,
but when you pick him up by it, though
the rest of the bee were as large as an
omnibus horse, yet would the sting out
weigh all the good, sweet. harmeless,
honey-laden portion OF the bee, and you
would think about it oftener and longer.

How Writ Found q Wife.

In his younger days he was victim
to the passion of Intoxicating drinks,
which has been the bane of SO many
distinguished men in the legal pro-
fession. Affianced to a beautiful and
accomplished young lady, he had made
and broken repeated pledges of amend
ment, and she, after patiently and
kindly enduring his disgraceful habit,
had at length dismissed him, deeming
him incorrigible. Their next meeting
after his dismissal was in public street
in the city of Richmond. William Writ
lay drunk and asleep on the sidewalk,
on hot summer day, the rays of the
sun pouring down on his uncovered
head, and flies crawling over his swollen
features. As the young lady approached
in her walk her attention was attracted
by the spectacle, strange to her eyes,
but, alas so common to others who
knew the victim so well as to excite lit
tie remark. She did not st first recog-
nize the sleeper, and was about to hasten
on, when she was led on by one of those
impulses which form the turning point
in life, to scrutinize his features. What
was her emotion when she recognized
in him her discarded lover! She drew
forth her handkerchief and spread it
over his face and hurried away. When
Writ came to himself he found the
handkerchief, and in one corner the
beloved name. With a heart almost
breaking with grief and remorse he
made VOW of reformation. he kept
that vow, and eventually married the
owner of the handkerchief, and became
one of the most eminent iurists in the
United States

He Didn't Advertise.

He was short, thick-set man, with
dyspeptic side whiskers. His gait was
about as lively rs that of sick car
horse, and his hat was covered with
grass spots. He ambled slowly into the
editorial-room of the Sand Flat S1,Gk e-
fang, took seat, and said, Il Just

Il am very busy at present; call in to-
morrow" replied the editor.
"'Never put off till tomorrow what
can be done to-day, is an old-time motto,
which 1 always wear in my hat. Would
you like to look inside of my hat?"
Il haven't time to talk to you, sir,

inform you of your nomination for
Congress, or I may be shabby old miser
who has selected you as his heir to q

"Will you leave, sir?"
"You needn't get mad in that style.
I didn't come here to tell you that 1
have long been reader of your valuable
paper, Or"
aWho are you, anyhow" asked the
editor, jumping to his feet.
@We1l, I'll tell you who I am. I'm
the evolver of a patent pill, and 1 have
been having verses written on it which
lam going to insert in the papers at
advertising rates. The verses are mostly
of bucoEc turn for instance:
"If you would feel as lively as

Of ]. Maguf6n's pills.
Here is another:
Thou who life serenely huggest,
If thou burde ned art with ills,

'Now, then, I've got one more; this
is regular old copper plated pastoral:
81 you'd be as gay as the dewy phlo1
Opurchase ]. Magutfns pills.
They're twenty-five cents a box"
Every nice," said the editor, in tones
which showed that he was conscious of
the fact that he had made sad error,
and that he yet might get the verses to
publish in his paper.
Eyes, I know, but they are too nice for
the Snakefa7ag. I was going to give
about 81, 900 per year, but now won't.
You are not polite enough. I only ed
vertise with polite men. I'll go and
have these verses painted on the fence;
that's what I'll do. Fence space costs
nothing" and he made majestic exit.
