Gen, Platsted was a candidate of a party In Maine which does not belluve in “honest money’ as defined by Gen. Man- coek’s platform. ‘The same party whieh ran Maisted fur Governor of Maine fs ranning Weaver Cor Prestlent tipon an avowed differ: ence with the two other parties upon the curreney question, Weaver, as well ns Tialsted, has always been Republiean, and Is one now, except as to this sitgle pointof disagreement.

Tt would be Interesting to publish In con- nectlon with Haneock's congratulatory mes- sige to Plaisted the sume gentleman's con- gratulatory messages to the successful Dem- veratle candidates In Alabama nud Arkansas who sueeeededt by cheating, bulldozing, and ballot-box stuillng Gen, Pintsted’y purty tn those two States out of Its rights, Gen. Hane cuck is apparently very Jubilant over'n Green- back suecess In Maine, but te was even more Jubilant when the Greenbackers In Alabama an Arkansas were counted ont of their rightful votes, Ilo is apparently very glad that the Demoerntic party was Hterally exe punged from the Maine contest, but he was equally glial when the Greenbackers were sifted and stuifed out in Alabama and Ar kansas. Gen, Hancock ts easily tlekled, But Gen, Plalsted, of Malne, nny not accept In the same Joyous humor the congratulations of ainan who ts the eandidate of a party whieh abused and defrauded, and continues to abuse and defraud, his (Muisted’s) party in the South, Augustus Sehell's Tammany-Iall message to Gen, Plalsted tg not less impertinent than Gen. Haneoe! Setell fg a New York banker; he ly not merely a hard-imoney man, but goldite, Me ty the leader of x clus of men who are inere obnoxious to Cen, Viulsted’s party than any other class of men du the country, Moreover, In tia partleular case, Augustus Sehell represgpts an or- xunization which is offensite in the Highest. degree to all men who, like Taisted and most of his associates, have acted wiih the Republicans, and who still be- Neve in all the Republican principles except astothe ctirrency Issue. The congratula- tions of Schell, as a goldite and ‘Tammany Democrat, to Plalsted, ay a Greenbacker, are tmpertinent; but congratulations coming froma Tammany polltichin toa Republican are an affront. ‘The idea conveyed by both the above mes- sages Is that Plaisted’s possible Greenback iritmph in Maine foreshadows a vietory for Itancoek aud English in November, Aro we lo understand, then, that Weaver and Ciam- bors linve retired from the field Do the Greenbaekers In Maine and the othor parts of the country propose to vote for the Han- gock and English Electoral tickets? Such a conclusion is essential to the theory thata Greenback suveess is “an assurance to tho Demoerncy of an overwhelming victory for Tinevels and Engilsh ’; but, if aueh an ar- rangement lias been brought about, it has been elfeetedt since the olections were hold in Alabama and Arkansas, and Messrs, Hancock and Schell must have advices which hnye not yet been given to the public, If no such are rangement has been coneluded, then the dis patehes from Haneock and Schell to Gen, Pluisted ure sluply fareten WAS HANCOCK THE HERO OF GETTY8- BURG! With an effrontery, whteh Is’ well-nigh mnazing, and with a disregard of the truth which $s wholly Incomprehensibie, the Demo- erats are now elaiming that Gen. Haneoek is the hero of Gettysburg, and that it Is duo to him that a deelstve victory crowned the operations ot the Union army at that polut, and thal Philadeluhin, Baltimore, and Wash- Ington were saved from capture by Leo's Rebel anny. While uo eno wHl have the disposition to deny that Gen, Haneock acted ina subordl- nate capacity at that battle with personal bravery, jn whielt respect thousands of sol- ders of tha army were his peers, ft Is not only an injustice to other commander to whom part of the credit of tho victory be- longs, but a most wanton and gratultons tuisstutement.of fuets, to etalin the sole credit of thut triumph for Mnncock, whose advice, if it hud heen followed, might have ted to Qisaster and left the field open for Leo's northern advance, ‘The bare reellal of the movements which preeeded the great battle, taken from oficial sourees, Wil show how utterly false is this celal and how unjust it is to other officers to whom the credit really belongs, When Lee crossed the Potomue in June, 1808, and commuenced lis marelt northward, hid ob- jective points were Bulthnore and Vhiladel- phin, The Uniow army also commenced moving North, but on un fnterlar tine, the corps led by Reynolds and Sehurz eontliuale ly converging towards Lee's main column, Afancock with Mende moving furthor to the rhght, or cast, und coyerlug Washington, No battleground had been selected by Leo or Meade, because it was not eertaln when the converglug columns would firstcollide, ‘The volllslon of the adyanes gunrds of the two urmies took place at Gettysburg, Gon, Bue ford’s cavalry in the adyance first comlug un with the Rebels and attacking them, and sub- sequently the corps of Ruynolds and Seluurz.
