How She ApOl0gfzed.
 CINCINNATI, Jan. 21.-The town of Van west, Ohio, was greatly excited yesterday by the horsewhipping of Rev. J. R. Henderson, the pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, by Miss Norma Conner, the organist of that church. Miss Conner had been attending dances during the past week, for which the reverend gentleman censured her publicly in church Sunday. He called on her to apologize, and was met by her in her fathers store and re- ceived the reinstatement, which was quite se- verely administered. He offered no resist ance, and repaired to his home after she had her satisfaction.

There is little hope any of those in the pit at the time of the calamity-estimated at from seventy to ninety persons-will be saved. Search for them is delayed by damage to the shaft. The explosion is attributed to the gaseous nature of the coal seam.

fact The Democratic candidate notified the
general of the army that regardless of any
thing Senator Ferry might do, if Congress
declared Mr., Tilden to be elected, and the
"cipher statesman" should take the oath OF
office, wherever he might be. he should obey
Mr.. Tiden's orders rather than those of the
commander-in-chief, President Grant or the
general Of the army That is he was all ready
to throw himself into the contention in defense
OF the Democratic claim to the presidency.
His views, as thus stated by the Boston Globe,
condemn him on military grounds. They
feebly plagiariZe the sentiments of General
Mcclellan, who undertook to dictate the policy
OF the country while the war went on and in
struct his superior officer as to his duty. Why
should General Hancock assume to decide
who was elected President of the United
States? The decision of the question rested
in no way with him A soldiers firm duty
required that he should wait until the matter
had been determined by the proper author
1ty and orders were transmitted to him
from his superiors in military command
But he announced his purpose of acting inde-
pendently in a given exigency, of officers
whose orders he could not violate without COM
mitting serious military offence. 1t appears
that General Hancock had adiudged that Gen.
eral Grants term of Office expired at midnight
on the Sd of March, thus settling difficult le-
gal and constitutional point. III the contin-
gency had occurred which General Hancock
described, General Sherman would not have
permitted him to obey many orders from Gra-
mercy Park before he had put him under ar
rest. Generals Grant and Sherman would not
have allowed General Hancock to imperil the
peace of the country and initiate civil strife at
the North.

General Hancock in 1876.

The correspondent of the Boston Globe at
Cincinnati, during the National Democratic
Convention, gave to the public revelation
respecting General Hancock's opinions and at
tituGe in the presidential controversy four
years ago, which was very damaging disclos-
ure to the general. The statement was 50 i'm
portant and has excited such comment that a
Montpelier (vt) correspondent of the Globe,
referring to the authority upon which it rests,
presents the narrative corrected and amended.
By the account General Hancock undertook
to decide who was elected President of the
United States at the last presidential election,
and grayely informed General Sherman of the

TEE Mississippi Star begins the campaign
in favor of Hancock and English with the
following vigorous Democratic advice as to
the manner in which the canvass should be
conducted in order to secure a victory for
Hancock and ''reform:' Inaugurate social
ostracism against every white man north or
south that gives his support to the building
up of the Republican party; discountenance
any man who will go ON or assist in making
the bond of any man elected on the Repub-
lican ticket; refuse to have dealings of any
the world that you are in truth and deed

When the city authorities put seats in the
Courthouse park, it seemed just the thing to
do. No objection to seats occurred to anybody.
A few weeks experience, however, has sug-
gested the question whether it is not best, after
all, to remove them. Every evening, before it
is fairly dark, the benches are filled with
young men and young women, who seem to be
troubled with weakness-who appear to be
compelled to wrap their arms around one
another forl mutual support; you frequently
find young men who haven't the strength TO
hold up an arm, but are forced to rest it
around the waist of convenient girl. OF

PROVIDENCE Journal: "There's the old

Then he wrung my hand and wanted to bor-
row five dollars. This was the substance of
a conversation which took place between
the late Artemas Ward and son of the
South during visit of the former to Rich
mond after the surrender. 1t appears to be
paraleed on large scale in the present ad-
dress of the Democratic party to the. coun-
try. 1t admires the old flag; it throws up
its cap for the hero of Gettysburg; to judge
by its action it is astonished to think it
could have fought against them both. But
it wants to borrow five dollars to have the
power and patronage of the government, to
compel the government to dixie the Missis-
sippi, improve the river, and dig out the
harbors in the Southern States, pay doubt
full war claims and pensions to rebel soldiers
who served in the Mexican war, and, in
short, its effusion of loyalty and admiration
for the old flag are as disinterested as that
of Artemas Wards acquaintance. If we
remember rightly Mr.. Ward wiped away
tear at the emotion of his friend, but did not
hand him over his pocket-book.
