In the letter of Mr, Cook the intimation waa distinotly conveyed that continued silence or ovrsion on the part ot Gen. Hancock would work groat demorallzntion and defection umong the business Democrats of Cincinnati, and that a prompt and uncquivocal answer was indispensable, Similar appeals had been made to Gen. Hancock froin othor parts of the country, showing that distrust and appro- hension concerning tho designs of tho Holid South wero witesprond and genernt through out. the North, Presumably Gen, Hancuck took counsel’ with Tilden, Barnum, aud tho rest of lia advisers, artd received from thom the assurance that, while a dvalaration of hostility to Southern claims would benoft the party vastly in tho North, it would work no injury in tho South, fur tho Int- tor section was bound to he solid anyhow,” and would seo the necessity of quicting the nppre- henstons of the North util the prive was s cure, ich is tho history of Gen. Hancock's letter. He never meant to write It, and nover would have writton it but for the certainty that to maintain silenca would goat hia muny thousands of votes. PLAIN TALE, It is plain that the Democrats nro more auxlous for viewwry next November than tha Repudlicans are, They are ready to resort to any and every expedlent to nechieve success, In Matne they supported the Greenback lickot ton man, and when they found that the State was going Repibitean they pre tended to give up the contest and withdraw their speakers. Hriving cheated their adver- sarles Into n state of false security and con- seattent Innctivity, they organized o ‘still hunt,” flooded the cities and lurge towns with barrels of money, and bought the float Ing yote, In Indiana, knowing that the re- sult depends upon the Greenbackers and the perpetration of colonization frauds, they are (1) straining every nerve to capture the Greenback party, and (2) laying the founda- tlon for colossal frauds, ‘They have already by the shotgun and ballut-box stufting made gure of 188 Electoral votes!

With this view of tho situation the tm portance of Indlanu in October becomes strikingly apparent, If tho Democrats loso It thelr case will bo desperate because they cannot hppa to make so strong a tight In Noveniber 1 five or six States as in ono State In October, But it they win It the confidenco thereby Iuspirod will draw to the treasury of thelr Natlonal Committea Deino- cratle money from every quarter of the country, and the money campaign now fn progress In one State can be repeated in five Status in November, It follows that the State election In Indiana is an Immense stake, Both tho Democrats and the Repub- Iteans of Indiana fully realize the faet, and each varty Is putting forth all its efforts to witt,—the Democrats by an elaboratosyatem of colontzation aud enrefutly iaid plang for tho verpetration of frauds of overy description, and the Republicans by putting in oporation the most thorough practicable fraud-de- tectlve system. ‘Tho Democracy of the Nn- tion, from Maine to California, fully sympa- tiize with thetr brethren of Indlann, and Are prepared to respond to every call for money. ‘The Democrats of Boston sent large sums of money to buy votes In Maing to help a forlorn hope—sont it against thelr bettor judgment.

Tho remalnder of the history of the days of slavery is devoted to showlng that the North contliually broke all Its agreements (2) and wan the persistent Ageressor (2) pon the “rights of the South,” ‘Lho Ropubllean party, st fg stated, was entirely sectional, altho freedom {s cerlaluly o Natlonal ides, Butit 1s alleged by this Democratic Statesupremacy book that tho Repubilean Nutlonal doetring of untyorsal freedaut appealed to the selfish and viulont pnssions of the Northern people, causing them to resist the spread of slnvery Into tho ‘Territories, and fnally clected Abra- hum Lincoln, ‘a sectional candidate,” as President.

The records of the Union army show that 78 per cent of all the volunteers wero native-born. Nino-tenths of the remainder wore naturalized citizens, Such ary the facts, ‘Tha Sonthorn leaders, on the othor hand, aro patturns of morality, bravery, and heroism,—Lea, an ofiecr above repronch, Stonewall Jackson, 8 man of angella good: neas, and Jotf Davis, never an extremist!

In this caso it shows not that the old vifus remains, but that it Is the studtat Intention of the older ex-Confedor- ates that the younger generation shall be in- fected ns completely us possible with It, THE DRAMA AT DULOIGNO. ‘The curious little dramas In front of Dul- clgno, on the Adriatic Gulf, must be exhib- ited to the world ina day ortwo, Wearled with the hagaling and delays of the ‘Turk In conceding to Montenegro what wes demand: ed by the Berlin Treaty and relterated by tho recont Conferenco of the Powers, and at Inst irrltated dy a deciston of the Porte which 1s tantamount to a refusal, the Powers have sent a combined fleet into the Albanian waters to enforces the demand, How it witl bedone remains to besuen, A mero naval display would bo ridfeulous and finyve no effect upon elthor tho Albanians or tho Turks, It ts more likely that they will land a force of Montenerring aul cover thom with thelr Buns in an assault upon the place, which would unquestionably result in success, Even should the furlovs Alvanians durn the town, os they threaten to do, and leave it o heap of rulns,. the purposa of the Powers will stii! have been answered, for the territary will nass lute the possesston of Montenegro, So far, however, the act is only a prelude to the real drama which wilt be enacted when the cession of ‘Turkish ter- ritory to Greece Isenforced. Everything now seems to indicate that ‘Curkey will maken «tesperate resistance, even lu. tho Inangura- tlon of a holy war, in which the Mohamme- dons will make their Inst desperate resist- anceto Christlan supremacy, Should such be the cage, no ona can foresee the end of the struggle.

Hancock saya: “ When the Rebellion was crushed tho heresy of secesston in every form and in every Incident went down for- ever.” But Wade Hampton says that the principtes for which Lee and Jackson fought four years are tholssus in this campatgn. Who knows best, Nancock or Hampton? It ig not necessary, however, to consult either, Hancock or Hampton on this subject, It 18+ matter of history, and history gives the Ile direct to Gen. Hancock’s comprehonsive andl aweeplng assertion that the heresy of secession dled out of die niinds of the Southern people when Lee surrendered, Aguinst every act of National legistation intended to conserve the frults of the War against tho right of secession, the ex-slaye- hotders have protested and fought to the Inst. They hayt never ceased to denounce, with tho utmost bitterness, the ‘Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments to the: Constitution, and all — tho jaws ouncted = thereunder, Repeatedly their most trusted representatives have dw clarcd ft to be the purpose of the “South” to wipe from tho statute-bouks tho Inat vestige ‘of war and reconstruction legislation, le pentedly have tha Southern people declared through thelr Repicaontatives and Senators in Congress, and through the Sontharn press, that tho War amondments to tho Consthtu- tlon were not legally adopted. These ns- sertlons show that tho spirit of secession not only Sved Sminediately after the surrender of Luo, but, as thoy continue to ba made down to the presont tue, that it yes i full forco and vigor toulay, “Says Gen, Hancock: “The Government can never pay a debt or grant & pension or reward of any sort for waging war upon is own existence.” Bless your {Innocent soul, Genoral, there isn’t an ex-Rebel allye to-day who will nd- mit that he waged war agulnst the existence of the Government of the United States, ex- ecopt as a temporary expedient resorted to with» view of tho ultimate roform of Its ndiluistration according to his construe tlon of the Constitution.

Let this be borne in mind. If they were not In the wrong they must haye been inthe right, This ts the logle of the South- ern position, If they were right, then tho slaveocrncy must haya “been griuvously wronged by the North, Whatmore natural than that, once In power, the Southern oligarchy should redresg thelr owa wrongs? How can thoy do this, better than by taxing the North to pay tiw losses they suffered ? “Tho Government can neyer pay a debt or grant a pension of reward of any sort for wagzlng war upon its own existence,” says Gen, Hancock, Why not?
