It was Hancock who turn- ed impending disaster into victory and by the countercharge which sav- ed the army on the evening of the second day. It was Hancock who repulsed that grand assault the most brilliant in the annals of the war when the dower of the army of North Virginia withered and died before the fortitude of the army of the Po- fomac in the final struggle of the third day. It was thus that Han- cock won at Gettysburg a triple crown of glory. Naturally enough Doth houses of congress adopted a joint resolution to the effect that im addition to the thanks which had been voted tothe officers and sol- diers of the army of the Potomac “for the skill and heroic valor which at Gettysburg repulsed, defeated and drove back, broken and dispir- ited the veteran army of the rebellicn the gratitude of the American peo- ple and the thanks of their repre- sentatives in congress are alike due, and are hereby tendered to Major W. S. Hancock for his gallant, mer- itorious and conspicuous share in the great and decisive victory.” In view of Hanceck’s constant and conspie- ons service to his country for more than forty years, sealed as that serv- ice was by his own blood, and in view of his proverbial purity of char- acter, it is amazing how any man could rise in the senate chamber to defame his memory, but having had the audacity to do so, the least you } can now do in reparation of this cru- el wrong alike to Hancock's memory and the patriotic sentiment of the country, is to rise again in the sen- rural visitors.

St. Louis, March 13.—At Coal Hill, one of the Arkansas mining towns where convict labor is used, a negro convict named Williams was flogged to death last week and furth- er inquiry developed the fact that Mose Harvey, a white man, aged 35 years, had been kicked to death by a fellow convict who had been egg- ed on by overseer Grafford, and it was learned that he was in the habit of making the prisoners fight. The body of Mark Elder was exhumed and the bruises and the gashes on the body indicated a violent death. It was also developed that a prisoner named Hummel was tied up to a post in the mines last summer and beaten to death. As the investiga- tion continues more horrible details are revealed and the citizens of Coal | Hill are much excited and threaten | to hang Grafford and tear down the | prison barracks.
