GENERAL HANCOCK has been most
unfortunate 10 the letters that be has
written His first letter since the nom-
ination was an endorsement of the Gin
cInnsti platform, and an acceptance OF
the candidacy for the Presidency, and
if the General had not written another
letter after that, he would stand better
before the country now. lie wrote q
letter since, on the question of claims,
and said that no one wants to have
Southern claims paid, when the fact is
of world wide knowledge that millions
of dollars of Southern claims are new
on file in the archives of Congress.
That was too great a blunder for a
Presidential candidate to make. He
has written a letter on the tariff He
says it is local question. That is an
other blunder, which is as great as the
blunder on the question of claims, for
the question of tariff is a question for
Congress to adjust, aud is sOr that rea-
SOD, as vel! as for other reasons, Ma
tional question. He has written let
ter trying to make it appear that he is
in favor of tariff for protection, but
when be wrote that be indirectly denied
his letter of acceptance, for i'll that be
pledged himself to the Cincinnati plat
furm, and that is opposed to a protec-
tive tariff Hancock NAV be a superb
looking soldier, and good fighter, but
his letters are sad commentaries on his
acquaintance with the records of the
country. and the records of his party.
The general who will write an endorse
ment of a policy as expressed in bis
party platform, and shortly afterwards
write that he favors something else, is
not the quality of man to put into the
Presidential chair.

A Covard's Conscience.

PREPARATIONS TO WRECK PASSENGER
TRAIN-A VILLAIN TAKEN UP As HERO
AND LOCKED UP LIKE THIEF.
Especial 10 The Cincinnati Commercial
NEWARK, o., August 14.-As an excur-
sion train from COlumbu. on the Panhan-
die division OF The Pittsburg, Cincinnati and
St. Louis railroad was making up time yes
terday, and was dsrtiug around curve
this side Of Walnut station, between Colum-
bus and Newark. the engineer spied man
pulling an ucly-iooking obstruction from
the track and whistled "down brakes"
His train came TO stand till considerably
beyond the place and the hero ~ was taken
on board, when forthwith many eXtrava-
CANT expressions OF intense gratitude were
heaped upon him.
But the cunning conductor telegrapbed
TO Doc. Brooke, railroad policeman here, TO
be on band when the train arrived and take
the man in charge. So when the train
reached Newark the man was given over
into BroOke's keeping, all the while protest
Ing innocence, and demanding that The CON-
pany give him liberal remuneration as an
equitable return for his service to them in
ayerting terrible smaSb-uD, as The embank-
ment at that place was OF formidable height,
and down this gaping ditch the long eXcur-
sion train would beyond doubt have been
hurled had the iOgenl0nsly mounted OBJ
struction remained undsturbed
But Brooke is not easily bluffed or whee-
died. lie has had enough experience thor
ougbiy 10 understand the requisite methods,
and in an entirely legitimate way finally in
duced the man to make a clean confession.
Il will be remembered that this company
and the Baltimore and Ohio Company ma
nipulate the same track between Columbus
and this place. This malevOlent tiend, whose
name is William Heatherlngton, had been
attending the Teti0ion in the former place,
and Yesterday morning boarded Baltimore
and Ohio train coming this way. But Ut
Walnut Station Conductor Peck ousted him
from the train for refusing TO pay his fare.
The infuriated man madiy swOre yenge-
ance, and running some distance down the
tract: deliberately piled up ties In such a
yay as 10 insure q total wreck. and then
Withdrew a short distance TO watch the lm-
pending disaster.
When he heard the tram laundering on
the opposite side Of The curve his con-
science made coward OF him Tor rather
summoned back his truant manhood) and be
ran and tumbled the ties off barely in time
TO save terrible wreck. Conductor Peck
visited the city prison and identified him as
the man he had put of his train at Walnut
Station. The man, though perfectly sober
when .be crime was committed, Yet had
mild form OF "bust-bead" from the pre-
vious nights carousal.
1t was deliberate crime, and but fcr the
poignancy OF a quickened conscience there
would have been slaugbtered-wbok knows
how many innocent ones! Instead OF the
railroad company making up handsome
purse for him, the ineXoraDle law will exact
ITS seyerest penalty, for the proof against
him is conclusive and term in the peni-
Tertiary his inevitable fate.
