its charter. Secretary Schurz gives it

Gen. Hancock must see, as well as his
party, that the battle is lost, and that
II he does not retire he will be ire
trievabIy showed under. The solid
north Is arrayed against the solid
south, and will stay so as long as the
south insists upon making a sectional
issue. The northern people are not
willing that ex-rebels shall rule the
nation. They have not the popula-
ton, general Intelligence, the wealth,
the enterprise, nor the recori-moral,
political, and commercial-that will
warrant them in taking the control Of
the country, nor are the northern peo-
pie willing that q general who fought
upon their side during the war shall
head the confederate forces and march
them into congress and the white
house to undo all that was done in
that war. They are ready to make an
equitable division, but not to give the
south supreme control.
