To the Editor Of the Couricr-Jo Journni.
LoUIsyILLE, July 6.--I had the
honor TO command one nf the rcgi-
! inents of "IIanrUck's Brigade" 4" the
forty-ninth Pennsylvania, until tho
Maryland campaign Of 1862, during
! ,..l.s.h ,....lh.is.h aud in the battle of Antie-
tam, commanded tiIe tiii,,,,.. ......i.s-
ade of Smiths division nf Frank
Inns corps, Gen. w. =. Hancock
commanding the first and Gen.
Brooks the second brigade. After
the war did not resume the prac-
tise Of law, but was engaged IN ex-
tensive mining operations in tho
Juniata valley, Pennsylvania, when
in 1867, Major General Winfield
Scott Hancock, Us. A., commando
ing the fifth military district, Texas
and Louisiana, offered me, and
accepted, the important and conf
dental position of attorney at his
headquarters i'm New Orleans.
When / reported for duty In Do
cember, 1867, cases OF nearly every
description and some very serious
ones arose in the wide territory un-
der Gen. HancOck's command.
The evidence in regard 10 these
was collated under his immediate
eye and was then sent to my office
for examination, and written
opinion being prepared, was, with
the evidence, transmitted to Gen.
Hancock for his final decision. !
was thus constantly brought into
close official relations with Glen.
Hancock i saw the minute and
rigid investigation which public
business received from him, heard
his views on local and national gov
ernment, the wants OF the impOv-
erished south, the true principles OF
constitutional liberty, the superior
ity of the civil over military power,
the sacred writ Of hGbeas corpus, the
vital necessity Of the union Of the
states and the cultivation Of frnter-
nal kindness among the people OF
all sections, and il gives me the
highest satisfaction TO declare,
that they were the views Of a
man OF the purest honor, great i'm
telligence and courage, patriot
and statesman. They were above
all party, all personal consideration
free from sellishness or
it was the only desire of
that brave, honest and noble heart,
and that clear and prescient mind
to discharge the very inn
portant duties imposed upon him
by the government of the United
States. This l know better than
any one else can, for was the ic-
gal adviser of Mai. Gen. Hancock,
and knew not only his actions but
his motives and his intentions.
How wisely, how beneiicently
this illustrious soldier-statesman full
filed his vast and varied duties,
the whole world knows. The Amer
can people are preparing TO reward
him with their richest gift. Very

said at the Time.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30, lsC

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30, 1867.
TO Major General Hancock:
MY DEAR GENERAL-This mo-
ment / read your admirable order.
| am very much engaged, but can
not resist the temptation to steal
time enough from my clients to tell
you how very grateful you have
made me by your patriotic and no
BILE behavior. Yours is the first,
most distinct, and most emphatic
recognition which the principles Of
American liberty has received at
the hands of any high officer in Il
southern command. IT has the
very ring of the revolutionary met
al. Washington never said thing
i'm better taste or better time. 1t
will prove to all men that "Peace
hath her victories not less renowned
than war" ] congratulate you not
because ii will make you the most
popular man in America (for dare
say you care nothing about that,
but because it will give you at all
times the solid reputation Of true
patriot and sincere lover Of your
country, its laws and its govern
ment. This, added to your brilli-
ant achievements as a soldier, will
leave you without a rival in the af-
fections Of all whose goodwill Is
worth having, and give you place
in history which your children will
be proud of. This acknowledgment
from me does not amount to much,
but / am expressing only the feel
ings Of millions, and expressing
them feebly at that. With profound
respect, am yours, etc,
