Gen. Hancock has one child living, q
son, Russell Hancock, who is now
planter i'm the South. The son was
blithe, happy, lighthearted youth, and
when mere boy married a young girl.
1t was n runaway match, and for months
the marriage was kept Il secret.
They had gone from aparty in Louis
vile across The river to Jacksonville,
reused up preacher, were married in the
silence of midnight. and had stolen back
to their dwellings.
The lady remained in her fathers house
and received young company was seen in
society with young gentlemen escorts,
met her husband as n mere friend, in the
presence of Others Young Hancock at
that time was employed ia the house of
Newcomb, buchanan IL Co., of Louis
vile.
The Young lady's father was rebel,
who had refused the addresses of "son of
Yankee soldier" lie forbade the Young
man the house and made preparations to
take his daughter to Europe; in fear of
this separation, the young man beggedhis
lady love, at the party that night, to
prove her faithlnlne.s to him by consent
ing to a marriage before she went abroad.
| While she was gone he was to try and
make home for her. and, if worse came
TO worse, no one could take her from him,
| he wonld know she was his, and inspired
by the thought could do great things.
The lady announced er willingness 10
marry him at any time. In half an hour
they were on their way across the river,
accompanied by friend or two, and the
ceremony was performed.
The news leaked out, of course, be-
fore the departure Of the family for Er-
rope, and created stir in the social
world OF Louisville.
The marriage was as much of sur
prise to Gen. and Mrs. Hancock as to the
wite's father and mother. Mrs. Hancock
had been visiting her boy, and had left
only the day before he was married. He
had told her nothing of his intentions, and
the shock struck to a tender place,
but she welcomed her pretty daughter-in
law kindly, and they are fast, true friends.
Whether the rebel father has condoned the
marriage of his daughter is not stated

To the Honorable Justices of the Supreme Judicial
Court next to be held mt Augusta, in aud for the
county OF Kennebec, on the third Tuesday OF October
lss0.
vINhe undersigned respectfully represents that the
l American Bank, then doing business at Hal
lowell in said county in September, 1860, caused the
ship AleXandrine TO be attached rs the property of
Henry Cooper, Jr., and others who were then in
debied to the Bank; and about the same time said
insured for their benefit for the of six thousand
dollars (?6,O0) in the Piscataqua Fire and Marine
Insurance Company. This was done in the naine of
your petitioner, and he gave hts individual note tor
the premium amounting to one hundred ana thirty
six dollars 3 1876.
During the life time of this policy said Bank failed
and Henry *. Baker, Eliphalet Rowell and Simon
Page were appointed receivers of the same and your
petitioner turned this policy with other papers
and assets of the bank to them; and when he was
subsequently called upon by the Insurance Company
TO pay this note, he notified said receivers of all the
fact: in the and requested them to take charge
Of it, and relieve him from all liability on account of
the same but said receivers while not denying that
they ought to relieve your petitioner and assume the
liability, if any there was refused to pay said note
TO said Insurance Company for the reason the com
pany insolvent ut the time they issued the poicy
Consequently the note remained unpaid and was
sued and the writ was returnable at the supreme
Judicial Court in and for the county of York at sep

execution was issued March 2nd 1st9, June lst ls12
and others in S73, 1874. 1875, 1877, 1879 and lesO
On the last named execution your petitioner was ar
rested and gave six months bond which is still IN
force.
Your petitioner is informed and believes that said
receivers have sufficient funds in their hands, belong
ing to the American Bank, pay compromise tins
Judgment and execution, and fully indemnify and re-
lieye him from any further costs or expenses in con
nection with the same.
Wherefore he respectfully prays that after due no.
tce to said receivers, they may be authorized ana
ordered TO adjust this debt and fully release ana a,s

The monetary situation is easy, and
the outlook encouraging. Capital is
seeking investmentin liberal sums and
all productive securities are firm with
an upward tendency. Borrowers are
scarce, the chief demandfor loans here
being from merchants carrying large
stocks Of cotton. AS the shipments
increase and the supply on hand re-
duces in volume even this chance will
fail. The money lender, will then
seek other channels to invest, or per-
NIT his capital to lie idle, AT present
discount rates are steady at 8 per cent
on all choice business paper, and a
nominal range of from 6 to 10 per
cent in the open market.
Exchange is quiet. Eastern cotton
bills without grace are taken at 81 %
per thousand, and 50 5Oper thousand
for sight bills on points beyond New
York. New Orleans bills are ic dis.

Checks on the east are sold at ic

of attention. On Saturday 2l6,0 900
