GAZETTE

Nos. 28 and 2ft Sonth Fifth Street Torre Hjane

The letter will bo fbund in full in this *assuc of the GAZETTE and no one at allinterested in politics will fail to give it $a careful perusal. It is a document which should be cut out and pasted in & scrap book or laid away for future reference. It must be borne in mind that it was written while the complications of the Presidential contest were at their height and before the Electoral Commission, as a means of escaping what seemed to be and was an alarming situation, furbished a peaceful though utterly unfair solution of the problem. Gen. Hancock's better was written to Gen. Sherman in response to a letter from him asking his'

.views of tho situation. Taken for all in S&.11 it is a remarkable production as an exposition of sound constitutional doc sjtrine, and is worthy to rank with the ,oihJer sound papers which have emanated %i*om his pen. He traverses in it much .of the ground he has gone over' before and, in regard to the outrage in Louisia -ana whose Legislature a federal military had unlawfully organized, gave utterance to views which lie at the very foundation of our government, and the violation of «which by Grant was one of the many crying shames of an administration that ought to be infamous in history. He states in it again, what he had both said and practiced before, that the military must be subordinated to the civil author, ities and shows his faith in the sweet and vital principles of civil liberty.

There is a lack of passion in the letter which does its author infinite credit It is the calmness of a patriot and tatesman underneath the lofty plane of whose existence the petty storms of bitterness and detraction wage their conten, tious warfare. He. speaks of Mr. Hayes, not then declared to bej President, in terms of commendation fi': ,v

as a man, which his career as President has shown to be not undeserved. It is in a word a letter worthy of its author and ought to be distributed broadcast, in connection with his famous orders No. ^0 and No. 1, and his letter to Governor Pease, as the best possible document the Democrats could circulate among the people of the land. /Mr**"

A DISPATCH from Mobile leaves no doubt that Alabama will be solid for the Democratic ticket. Mississippi may be set down the same way, notwithstanding the fact that there would be a large liepublican majority there if the colored people could vote.—Express.

The traditional cheek of the government mule is small in area compared with that of a Republican in a campaign. They would depopulate a state of its ne. gro element by their political emigration agents and then raise the cry of oppression, bulldozing, shot-gun policy etc. because the colored vote doesn't show up in the state whence they have drawn so heavily to supply a deficiency of labor( t) in some doubtful state. Of course it is not alleged that Alabama has been worked by the emigration agents, but the 6ame cry would have been raised in regard to North Carolina even if the agents had succeeded in importing into Indiana the full quota of laborers( (required, 18,000, as was at first intended. It is as ridicu loas for Republicans to raise the cry of oppression over a Democratic victory in Alabama as it would be for Democrats to do the same when Iowa goes Republican. Alabama is Democratic for the same reason that Iowa is Republican because there are 50,000 more Democrats in Alabama than Republicans just as there are 40,000 more Republicans in Iowa than Democrats.

Hancook's Letter to Sherman. For some weeks past, in fact they be. gan almost immediately after his nomination, the Republican press of the country has been asserting that Hancock wrote a very terrible letter to General Sherman It was understood that the letter was written during the period of uncertainty pending the decision of the presidential election, and before the Electoral Commission, as a means of solving the difficulty, had been invented. In this letter it was very ominously announced by our Republican brethren of the press, Gen. "Hancock is supposed to have given utterance to some very traitorous and dangerous sentiments. If this letter could be published, they have been asserting, it would show Gen. Hancock in such un enviable light that he would be driven out of the canvass as utterly unworthy the confidence of a liberty and peace loving people. In fact Gen. Hancock's letter, with the statements put into it by their own fancies, was declared to be a very dangerous document and they have been making immense capital out of it. It is well that our Republican friends imitated the tactics of the Hiber nian who had a good laugh beforehand at the fun he was going to have in pitch ing over the pasture fence a bull ho saw* grazing there. Contemplating the sky and clouds from the dust of the laae where he found himself quietly though some what orely lying a short time afterwards he supposed to have congratulated himself on the forethought which induced him to take his laugh before rather thaii -after tho encounter with his bullship. Our Republican friends now that Gen. Hancock's letter to gener al Sherman has been made public, will and county tickets St. Clair county, 000 doubtless also congratulate themselves pnajority Etorrahcounty,2,000 majority that they had their laugh and made their capital out of it before the evil day came whetn hey found themselves lying sore and bleeding from to much fooling with a document no one could have guessed was so heavily loaded with ammunition de .Btructive to them.

The GAZETTKS esteemed contempory the St. Louis Evening Post-Bis-p'atch, makes balloon detectives of its read era the following fashion:

If you happen to see a small dark object, resembling an inverted gourd, floating through the ambient, air you are requested to send immediate word to Youngstown, Ohio. There is a balloon missing from that place, and a gentleman and lady also, whose names are not vouchsafed. Mr. Henry, an amateur aeronaut, was treating the curious citizens of that section last week to brief rldas in a captive balloon, charging a small pittance therefor. On Saturday afternoon a rural gentleman and lady who were taking a dig at high life took seats in the car by way of enjoying a new experience. At that moment a pull' of wind gave the balloon a lurch, the restraining rope broke and the venturesome pair iloated off into spacc. At last accounts the airship was heading toward Lake Erie but there is no telling what course it took after it reached the upper currents. The involuntary navagators enjoy, we feel moved to say, the sympathy of the entire country.

Or. Tanner*

NEW YORK, August 2.—Dr. Tanner had a large number of visitors today. At 1:40 this morning he had an attack of nausea and vomited. This left him weak and he complained of a bitter mouth. Soon after he drank three ounces of ice water, and slept three quarters of an hour. At nine he got out of bed, dressed .easily, and read the morning paper and remarked that somebody might have tampered with the water, as he felt bad after drinking it There is no telling what- they woulJ do. I understand some heavy bets.have been made. At noon when he entered on the 88th day of his fast his condition was about the same as yesterday. ..•J .*"-
