ENGLISH TICKLES HANCOOK. ‘There fs one clrenmstance comnected with the publteation of the letter of acceptance written by Mr. Engilsh, the Democratic candidate for Vice-President, that can scarce: ly have failed to attract public attention. It was announced during two or: three weeks that Gen, Hancoek’s letter was rendy for de- llvery to the publle, but that the author was holding {t buck in order that: English’s letter might uppearsiimultancously with it, Lt was suppored that this course was taken in order toInsure harmony of views fn the two doc ments, ‘Che Eugilsh letter, however, revealed Another motive. It consists In Inrge part of nenlogy of Gen. Haneork, and, thus. issued under the auspices and with the approval of the Intter, it would seem to have been Gen, Hancock's desire thaths should make his ap- pedranee before the public backed up by ful- some praixe which a modest man would have suppressed under sinillar conditions, This elreumstance will not Increase the public re- spect for Gen, Muncock, though it comports. with the title of superb’? which his party friends have conferred upon him, Unfortunately ‘English’s eulogy of Gen, Hancock will ot bent the test of anniysis, It may serve to give tho Vice-President un- usual Influence with the Adininistration {ft the Demoeratic ticket shall happen to be elceted, but in the meantime the firttery Is too gross to develve any intelligent reader. Mr. Englist: refers frequently to Gen. Ian cock ng ‘a grent statesman.” The broadest latitude of party adulotion will not warrant the application of such a term to Gen. Hane cock even with tho “rent” omitted. Web- ater defines 6 statesman to bo “A man versed in the arts of goverment; .cspeclally, one ‘emtnent tor political abilities; a polltician.” Gen. Hancock's career docs not conform to any oie of these stitndard requisits of states- manship,. Iuving been educated In the military only, and: liaving passed” his whole life in| camp, fort, garrison, or dress-parade, he has lind no, oppor- tunity to become “yersed tn’ the. arts of government,” and a man with no pollit- foal experience whatever certainly cannot be anid.to be. “eminent -for political abill- tes.” Nor is Tinneock even “the great commander” that Singlish says ho Is, He may be spoken of truthtully as. a brave sokdser, anda good subordinate division or corps commander; but nothing in his record as a General warrants the conclusion that he’ fs “‘n great commander,” Ho nover had an Independent command In war, though the vicissitudes of tho struggle for the main- tenance of the Union would almost certainly have brought tlm to the front if he had evinced a gentus tis a stratesist or n special aptitude for’ independent command. It ts given to fow men In the history, of mankind to he at once tn great statesman” and ‘a great commander.” It is absurd to confer both these Utles upon a man who eannot nghtfully clalm either ono of them. > English’s itemized deseription ‘of Gen, Inneock's greatness fs not any more accu rate than his generalizations. He credits Hancock “with a "clear perception of tho correct principles of governinent as taught by Jefferson.” It Is just. possible that the Democratic candidate for Presitent may have this “clear porception ” of Jeffersonian principles, but he has never given the small- estevidence thereof, and tho Involved trent- ment of the State-sovereignty question tn his letter of acceptance would tudicate that ho has no “clear perception” of the principal issue botween the two parties, If Jefferson had Ilved through the War of the Rebellion, his own “clear perception” would undoubtedly have led him toreylse his creed mostradieally In thisregard. Nor is Gen, Mancock possessed. Violating the Babbath, us uncalled fur, an outs. of elthur caudidate to quality would make the: of “acknowledged ability. In clvit as well ng military affairs.’ “Whatever ability he may have for civil affatra cannot, be “ acknowledged,” because ft has never yot been displayed and there has been no oppor- tunity for public recognition thereof. Finally, “his seruputows caro to keop the military 111 strict subordination to th elvil authority” is altogether apocryphal. Whatever Gen, Hancock inay havesald or written upon this subject, the fact that ho used his military power as a Union commander at Now Or- leans to remove civil oftcers, arbitrarily, to control registration and’ misconstruo tho acts of Congress for. thy beneflt of tha Rebel elnas and to the Injury of the Unton inen‘and the freedmen, does’ not, vindleate tha asser- ton that he “hold tho imiiitary in strict sub- ordination to tho elyll authority."? tsa On'the whole, it woutd have been wise had Gou, ‘Hancock refused his approval of Ene Bilsh's fulsome Mattery Instwarl of waltiug to promulgate it along with his own letter of acceptances, Novertholess there !s urobably ‘a coniplete harmony of views between the two guntlemen rolatlye to Hancock's " great- nosi,’* . ‘THE STEWART ENDOWMENT. _ Thy Trmuxe publishes # fill statement of one of the late A, ‘I.

Thoy ‘have purchased about all the lands requisit for thelr purposes between ‘Twelfth ond Sixteenth atreots, nnd awalt the privilego of crossing the Vanderbilt roads at Sixteenth street. These ronds have been treated with great Ilverality by. the clty, and it Is an out- rage for them to pursue a dog-ln-the-manger policy against other great, though they bo eompating, lines, If itis a fact that In cross- ing at Sixteenth street the now roads would. interfera with the switching necessitics of the old ones, then they will doubtless cross some distance seuth, say below Twenty-second street, and the elty should pass an ordinance nt onee granting the necessary. privilegcs.
