OF course we ha*© nothing to say at this time against Gen. Hancock, but it must not be forgotten that he hung Mrs. Surratt—poor woman, he hung her.

Now that Tommy tailed to get the nomination at Cincinnati, it would be about the fair thing for the Supreme Court to grant a rehearing on the amend men tquestion.

HON. RoBBirr B. F. FEIBCK is the kind of a man to make a Congressman of. During his first two years of college life he sawed wood for ofce of the hotels of Craw fords vilfe in order to pay his way through.

S I IS bound to have a strawberry festival at Cincinnati. Jessie and the Senator's reputed son Tbmmy have left Washington for the Cincinnati Convention. She is boxind to make the Senator come to time.

ALTIUH'OH a brave soldier during the war, Oen. Hancock's position in the hanging of Mrs, Surratt, and his penchant for being a ladies' man trill make him a weak ^opponent for Gen. Garfield. The General is a good dancer, loves good wine* and admires pretty women, but is a verr poor statesman^

date for Congress, from thiaJptrid Robert B. F. Peirce was bi*ra Fe 17, 1843, at Laurel, Franklin county,

father Heniy Peirce, came

iay

^ck and was born and %rought up in' MftRsachnsetta. He came Iudiana -at. an early day, settling .first at Fairfield and afterward moving to LaureJ- The family was large, consisting of seven boys and two girls, and the father hi failing health, when Robert arrived fit the age of 17, was to poor to assist him in,tp business or in getting him an education. But he had made up his mind to h^ve a full coi legiate education, and in September, ISA), entered the preparatory department of Wabash College. Being without funds he supported himself by working during his spare time—sawingwood as he coufd obtain and for the first two years of fcisl college course he sawed all the wood us?d by one of the hotels in Crawfordsville

He and three brothers entered the army soon after the break ing out of the war, and hei was made a second lieutenant. His regiment was mustered out of service soon after the Atlanta campaign and he returned home-

He entered college again, and graduated in

1866.

Puritan

He commenced to read law at

Sheibyville in tfee office of ]Jm. £. Love. After remaining there a year he removed to Crawfordsville and at once ranked with the'best lawyers of the State

He was soon afterwards elected Prosecuting Attorney for the counties of Ciin ton, Fountain, Montgomery, Buone and Warren and was re-elected, holding the office for six years.

In May, 1875, he was appointed General Solicitor for the Logansport, Crawfordsville and Southwestern Railroad Company, which position he held until the road was sold to some gentlemen in this city, a short time ago.

He is a gentleman of thp very best chafacter and a solid Republican. He has a great many prominent Democratic friends in this city, who will support him. jHis popularity at home and abroad will surely eiofct him to Congress.

THEY **re getting the b^t of Bradlaiigh in the English Parliament. He eloquent* lycombatted the resolution against hinj. He said it was unprecedented to condemn any One unheard. Hie argued against .being accused of atheism. He would not forego his opinions or claims to the seat. The House might expel him, but until lie liftd taken his seat, it has no jurisdictionThe House cannot overcome the law which permits him to take 9ath. If ah appeal should be necessary,, as Ke. hopes it will not be, it niustbe made. He asked the House to give him the justice which judges would give him if he appealed. He was cheered on every side. Aftfer some skirmishing, Bradlaugh having b6en called.in, he advanced tp,the table, and was informed by the Speaker of' the House of its action, and was requested to withdraw. 'Bradlaugh twice respectfully refused to withdraw.

Mi.

Sir Stafford Northcoat moved that the Speaker be authorized to enforce his with drawal. The House divided on this motion, Bradlaugh meantime standing at the table, and the motion was adopted—326 tO 38. /f

Bradlaugh resufed positively to obey. He was thereupon removed beyond the bar. He returned twice, declaring that the House had no right to exclude him, It can only imprison him.

Northcote moved that Bradlaugh having refused to obejy the Chair, he be given into the custody of the scrgeant-at-arms.

Gladstone, seing no other means of giving effect to last night's resolution, seconded the motion, find Bradlaugh is in prison.

HON. ROBERT B. F. PEIRCE on reaching Crawfordsville last night was met at the depot by a large number of the citizens in buggies and on foot, Ixeaded by the Wilhite band, who went to escort the successful candidate to the city. He was placed in a lat^e chair on a freight wagon and brought to the court house square, where he was greeted by enthusiastic cheers. He was called on loudly for a speech and re sponded as follows

About twenty years ago next September I came to Crawfordsville for the first time. And I can assure you that I did aot come down to the city in the same style that I did this evening. I walked down then for the reason that I did not have 25 cents to

my fare. I came to go through Wa«ish College and. my frieuds when I left the College, finding the people of this city so good. I resolved to cast mr lot in the city. Never since 1866, when I came here to remain permanently have I regretted that I did cast my lot here. In fact, it is a proud thins: for any man to be a resident of Crawfordsville. I thank my friends for the way they have surrounded mo and helped me for two days. They carried me through, and I carrv success and lay at their feet. It is an honor 'for a man to be a cituten of Crawfordsville, whether he is a candidate far office or for business. found that this fact helped me much, and I assure you that while at Terre Haute I took pains not to dispute this report. I thank you for this reception, I thank these hove for bringing me down in this magnificent coach. And with this I bid von good night.

THE Inter-Ocean in speaking of Tilden's letter says it is highly flavored wiUi testa1, mentarv saulness and egoism, and was

oration The testotorw^is% p* a .y^ung ^aan, so far jemoved from tiie common order that he loved his country. As a pro-

omaly that he preferred right to ItiSs striking peculiarity made him Go pninr oj iNew York, and the fact that he only true and legitimate reformer $ tiiereachof thp©enyjd#iciM|rty, rendered him so conspicuous that they snapped him up as a Presidential candi date. He was appalled but he didn't ibrink. He believed that no other man could hold a raedte to.him as a restorer of our complex political system, to the pure ideas of its founders, and he was con strained to accept the nomination. In other words, he flung himself ipto the cortex, and. through no fauili of ids owii, was left high and dry in a most embarrassing condition.

He calls the attention of the Democracy to all thase things. He enlarges uponhe piteous spectacle in wiffch he has been the central figure, playing the part of "the involuntary but necessary representative of a momentous issue." He'intimates that no ther man could have done this so well as himself, and more than hints that had he not kept himself pretty well in liand the Democratic party would have had no "supreme issue" on wiuch to go before the people in November next.

Other Democrats may have done fairly well, but he asks pathetically if he neu5 not borne more, suffered more, and ad complished more than all the Others considered together. And if he has borne so much and has done so much, should he be called upon to "renounce the renomination and reflection indispensable to an effectual vindication of the right of t"he people to elect their rulers violated in my person.'^ •i- -',J

This is the Spirit and point of the letfer. Will the Democracy be so cruel as to ask the only living representative of "a supreme issue" to step down Sand oyt? Will they ask a man who has been tantal i2ed as he has, been to surrender The work, may be. beyond his strength, but he waa^willing to give thdfri aJl'the health andy lrfe he had in 1876, yrhy not take what he has to give in I860,

McCrecry, McDonald, Ma^ey,: Merripio^, Price, Randolph, Ransom, Saulsbury, Stevenson, Thurman, Wallace, Whyte, and Withers, All Democrats, and. 169 Democratic members of the House voted, iB ungrateful to say the least

Eaton was the only democratic Senator voting against the bill. Thurman and Bayard in the Senate, and Morrison in the House, now possible candidates against Tilden, voted for {he bill. Blaine, Sherman, and Garfield) candidates before the Republican convention, all voted against the bill. Does Mr. Tilden desire to rebuke Thurtnan and Bayard and compliment Mr. Garfield at their expense?

OKK. WIHITELD SCOTT HAtfCOCK. On the second ballot this morning, the Democracy at Cincinnati nominated General Winfieid Scott Hancock for the Presidency of the United States. We are satisfied that this, is the strongest nomination that they could have-made. General Hancock has as brilliant a record as any soldier during the war and his heroic bearing at the battle oi Gettysburg will folllow him until he is locked in the "windowless palace of rest."

He was born on the 14th of February, 1824, in Montgomery county, Pennsylvania.

He entered West Point a very young man and graduated in 1844. When the war broke out he was ready for service, and as he had been through the Seminole and Mexican war, he was in 1861 commissioned a Brigadier General.

His greatest war record gleams from the fields of Fredericksburg. Williamsburg) and Gettysburg, on the last of which he was severely wounded.

He is now commander of the East, and is located at New York.

THE action of the Diaz Cabinet in re fusing to allow United States troops to! os he xi an or In it of Victoria's Indians, places that country in a peculiar attitude toward the United States.

The war department has never for one moment thought but that the Mexican a it S at soldiers to follow this band of savages over the line, as it would be to the interest of both republics to have Victoria andj his band of maurauders punished severely, as the enemy of both countries. Of course. Victoria will recruit his forces, and in a few weeks will be found on the soil of the United States, murdering and pillaging, as he has so frequently done heretofore, and should such a thing occur, the Mexican Government will likely have Some trouble on her hands.
