.Ullltury Service.
Wlnfiohl Scolt IlancocU is a soldier In
deed us well as in name, and the more his
record is searched tho morn of credit will be
divulged. His immediate ancestors were
slalwart early settlers in Pennsylvania,
Benjamin Franklin Hancock, his fa her,
wns of mixed English, Scotch, and Irish
Hood. His progenitors were of excellent
Revolutionary renown. His mother tra of
Pennsylvania decent toe. The General
himself may havo inherited desirable Quak
er, Episcopalian, and Baptist qualities, for
thoso rdigiocs faiths were represented in his
grandfathers nnd grandmothers. lie Was
lorn in what had been tho family residence
of the Hancocks for a century ; in Hatfield
township, Montgomery County, Pa., in a
picturesque old house, with 1781 carved as
an age mark on its uetvest half, and tho
inoro ancient tracing of time on the other, a
building on which tha cuts of Indian- toma
hawks hail recorded an attack in" the early
I-'rcnoh-Indian wars.
A grandfather on' the father's side, during
tho revolution, was captured at eca, claimed
ai a British subject, nnd taken to England
for imprisonment. A great-grandfather on
the inuther's side dietl from exposure on tho
field. His mother's father received special
pension for gallantry in tho Continental
army. The General's father became a sol
dier in 1812, though only 16 years old, and
returned to tho field five times by re-enlist-ineut.
Heroic, biood was thus bequeathed
to the man who is tu bo the Ficsident of the
United Slate3 of America.
A PATRIOTIC! BOVIIOOD AKD EARLY MANIIOOU.
The roaring plac of the Democratic) can
didate was Norristown, Pa., where as n boy
he daily taw the sceno of Wiisliingtiur's gal
lant crossing ol uiesciiuyimii, in tno cruial
1 campaign of Valley Forge. Incentives to
patriotism were not wnstetl on his boyhood,
j Ho was born in 182-1 (henco is now 50 years
old), anil in 1839 ho was chosen to road tho
' Declaration of Independencosat a county
I celebration of tho Fourth of July. In the
following year, when ho was sixteen, he en
tered tho United Slates Military Academy
at West Point, his spirit and ability having
1 recommended him' for that preferment.
Among his endet companions were the tails
who subsequently became Gen's. Longslrect,
BurnMde, Hill, SlcClell.ni, Grant, Jackson,
I and Reynolds. Nature had balanced hts
I mental und physical qualities well, and ho
I became, without special cll'orlt a recognized
leader of his coinrediM. Ho was graduated
in 1814, ami was r.t' cho assigned to the
Sixiu iinantry. no was yet tarniy moio
than a boy, being-ouly twenty ; but he had
no chance to figure as n soldier on parlor
carpets, Lein despatched nt once to the
Western fiontier to tight Indians. His hard
ening service in tho Indian Territory lasted
...... 1 i.t... .....kllnn
io a oectinu uteuienaucy.
Tho war wilh Mexico gave young Lieut.
Hancock an opportunity to distinguish him
self. Ho went to Mexico with his regiment,
and fought at Sail Antonio, Cheriibusco,
Molinodel ltey, inld the City of Mexico.
Throughout tho campaign ho was biavo and
useful enough lo bo uwardeJ; at tho dose of
tho war, the brevet ol first Lieutenant "lor
gallant nnd meritorious conducfon certain
specified occasions.' At Coritreras and Cher
ubuEco he "behaved In tliu handsomest man
ner," to uso tho language of an official re
noit. Ho served a while' as Adluta'nt, and
was in 1855 nrodo Assistant Adjutunt-Gcn-crul
of the Department of tho West. While
filling that position at St. Louis, he rdnrricd
a daughter of Mr. Samuel Ruasell, a leading
merchant. At about tho same time ho was
promoted to a Captaincy, This was a dis
tingiiishing honor for" K man only 31 years
old. He served in southern Florida during
the Indian war of 1858-7, and then went to
Kansas Ibr dclicnlooS well as active duty.
Ills noxt' se'hfieo 7& in this' military expe
dition to Utah,uhi'ler Harney,aritl afterward
ho rodo overland to California, wl.tro he
was stationed for the next few years!
USnCSITAin.'tlLY A UNION MAN.
At the outbreak of the rebellion Captain
Hancock was on' duly at Los Angeles, Cal.
Ho at once took a' determined stand as a
Union man, doing much by private In lit!
ence and public speeches to stay ll!o tide of
secession iteiing on mo I'acuic coast, ills
thought lu&i to tils inuucnce, mora man to
anything else, was duo the salvation of the
State- from rebellion. His public speeches
were many ond potent. But he was not con
tent with words. On learning of Ihe first
shot at Sumter, ho wrote to Gov. Curtin, of
Pennsylvania, for a commission of troops
raised in his native State; but, not receiving
a speedy answer, he impatiently addressed
a letter to Gen. Scott, at Washington, who
was then General-in-Chief, demanding ac
tive service. Gen. Scott had learned his
merits In Mexico, and ordered him imme
diately to tho East. Upon arrival in Wash
ington he was requested to report to Gen,
McClellan, at whoso instance President Lin
coln appointed him a Brigadier-Central of
Volunteers. He was assigned to the divis
ion of Gen. Smith in the Army of the Poto
mac The four regiments of his brigado were
well oflieeredjOf excellent inalerial,and their
new commander after a period of tuition felt
that he could rely upon Item in any emergency.-
Gen, Hancock served with distinc
tion in all the battles of tho Peninsula, but
jt was at Williamsburg that his splendid
generalship made itself most conspicuous.
Gen. McClellan, in his dispatch tu tho
President, said: "Hancock wassuierb!"and
his name was ochood from tba Atlantic to
tho Pacific.
MILITARY nONOUS WON.
Gen. Hancock was again and again con
spicuous in spirited engagements. Aflerthal
of Malvern Hill he wad created Major-Gcn-c
rol of Volunteers, and breveted successive
ly Major, Lieutenant-Colonel, nnd Colonel
in'tlit regulai army. At tho first Freder
icksburg fight his uniform was perforated
with bullets, but ho received' only a slight
Ue.h'wound, Soon after tbb battle of Clmn
cellorsville he was placed' iu command of
tho Booiid Curps, on' the retirement of
Couch. When the news mine of the rpn
ing of the fight at Gettysburg, he was wilh
Uen. Meade at Tuuy town, und was ordered
by Iif in to Lake command of all the fnq-cson
the field there, with such others as might
arrive. Ota. Reynolds, who eommnudeJ,
the First Corps, had been killed, aud that
body under Doublcday, with tho Klevwith,
under Howard, had been furoed to retreat.
Hancock kuetv that Meade iutonded to fight
the battle on the lino of Pipe Creek, but
sent hi in word by bis seuior aid. Major
Mitchell, that Uel'tydbiirg was topographi

third day lit susltincd n cannonade of two
hours from 120 iruns, tinder cover of which
lioiigttrecl s men wore massed. Streams or
shot unit obeli hissed a rid screamed on every
side, men E'ntt horses w'cro torn Into frag'
incuts, caissons exploded, blowing tho gun
ners to pieces, and tlio infantry bugged the
ground almost In despair. A band began
to play "Tho Star Spangled BAnner," nnd
Hancock, with Ills staff (Mnior Mitchell and
Cants. Bingham, Parker and Bronson),wlth
Private Ja mes Wells carrying tho Second
Corps'flagappearca with heads uncovered on
tho rigiil ol liis line. Cheers arose, and the
brave little crniiri rode coolv down tho front
lo the left. Shot and shell roared and
crashed, but not one of them was harmed.
Hancock know that theartlllery firowas in
tended to dcmoralizo his inert, and to cover
tho advance ofLongstrect's infantry, 18,000
srong, which was to make the real attack.
As ho reached the left of the lino this in
fantry began emerging from the woods and'
aavanciug up me mil.
WOCNUED IN BATTLE.
Hancock turned his horse, and, followed
by his staff, roda to the right of the lino
again, hat in hand, bowing and smiling to
tho men 03 he passed. Tho trcops became
wild lo engage and,on reccivingprders,'mnde
terriblo havoo with the enemy, who, In their
turn, laid themselves down to avoid a dead
ly firo both of musketry and artillery. At
tho moment of victory Gen. Hancock reeled
from his horse, but was caught before fill
ing. Ho was seriously wounded in the
thigh, but he remained on tho Held, giving
orders until tho defeat of tho enemy became
complete. He was the central figure of the
memorable battle, and received the thanks
of Gen. Meade, of the Prcsident,of Congress,
and of the nation at large.
In March, 18l)4, Gen. Hancock returned
to tho field and took command of his old
corps, with which ho fought brilliantly in
tho Wilderness. On Aug. 12, he was creat
ed Brigadier-General in tlio regular army.
His successful fight at BSydton Road In the
following October vfas his fast. He was
ordered lo Wash Ingtnn' lo form" a vcleran
corps 50,000 strong, which he quickly suc
ceeded in getting from among tbo many sol
diers whoia terms of enlistment had expired.
Ho was sent with the corps to the Middle
Millitary Division, wilh headquarters at
Winchester, and was tti co-opcrata either
with the Army ot the Potomac or on the
Southern' coast with Gen. Sherman,as might
be decided. The surrender of Leo at Ap
pomattox rendered both movements un
necessary. HIS ACTIVK SERVICE NOT ENDED WITH THE
WAR.
After the murdcrof President Lincoln and
tho attempted assassination of Secretary
Sewartl, Gen. Honcock was ordered by
President Johnson to the command of the
forces in ond around Washington. Ho was
assigned in July, !o the command of tho
Middle fep'a'rtm'ent, niftV (ifrrdquartcrs at
Baltimore. At this time ho was breveted
Major General in the regular army for gal
lant and meritorious services nt ripottsylva
uia," whero ho had captured an enlire di
vision of tho enemy. In Julv, 1800, ho was
rai6cd'U)thc full grade of Major General,
nhd assumed command of tho Department
of Missouri, conducting several arduous
campaigns against Indians. In November,
1807, ho was orderod to tlio command of tho
Fifth Military District ainl tho' Department
of the Gulf, with) headquarters at New Or
leans. His predecessors had made the mili
tary arm superior to the civil law. In his
General Orders, lie surprised' tlio peoplo of
Louisiana i-V.li Texas by announcing that
the civil authorities should execute the civil
laws, and that, puacu being established and
the civil authorities'' ready and willing to
perform their duties, the military power
should ceaso ils functions in that direction.
At tho same time ho declared that armed
Insurrection would bo suppressed by force ot
once. Gov. Pease, who had been appointed
by tho Federal authoritiej to tho control of
Texas, took exception tb Ceri'. ITarlcock's or
ders but tho latter was' immovable in the
position he had taken. He declared that
two years after the closo of the war it was
tjmoto remember that Americans ought to
be freemen, to tolerate free popular discus
sion, anil to extohtl forbearanee and consid
eration tooppbsinvievJ-s. The General felt
that his sentiments were not altogether en
dorsed at Washington, nnct, after six'months
of service, he asked to be relieved'. Ha was
assigned by President Grant to the Military
Division cf tha Atlantic, which, with tho
exception r.r three yours' command of the
Military Division of Dakotah,-ho has sinco
retained; his headquarters being on GoVcr
nor's Island.

1851, Mr. English fi3 nominated for Re-
Eresentative in Congress, aud was elected
y a maiority.of 488 overa worthy competi
tor, tho I a to John D. Ferzuson, He gave
the administration ofPfciMenl Pierre bis,
hearty support. At the opening of that
Congress tho Kansas Nebraska bill was in-,
traduced. Mr. English was a member of
tho Committee on Territories, and he did
not concur with the majority in tbe expedi
ency of bfinjglng forward the measure at
that time. It is claimed that the Congress
ional records will rshow that Mr English
brought foiwartl tho popular sovereignty
idea in a minority report presented by him.
The slavery question and other matters In
volved iu that question were before Congress
during the years In Which Mr. English was
a Representative. In one of his speeches
he said: "I am a native ofn free State, and
have no love for the institution of slavery.
Asido from tlio moral question involved, I
regard it 113 an Injury to the Slato where it
cxisls, and, if it were proposed to Introduce
it where I reside, would resist it to the last
extremity." On another occasion he ssld:
"We do not liko this institution of slavery,
cither in its moral, social or political bear
ings, but. consider that it Is a matter which,"
like all other domestic affairs, each com
munity ought to be allotted to decide for
itself.
KXor-SOTIttNOISM,
In the course of Mr. English's Sonnd
Congressional term Kn'ow-unfhtngUm as
serted itself, ami It found in him an able
and fearless' opponent. He wss elected tof.
Congrcsl for a third time.nothwilhstandlng
his request that his constituents would se
lect onolh'cr candidate; and tlio slavery
question came up again In the proposal to
admit Kan-as as a State under the Leconii
ton Constitution, which did not prohibit
slaveliolding. Although the proposal wm
favored by President Buchonnn and by the
entire South, Ml. English Htoutly op'iosw
the mcasuro on the ground, chiefly, that
thero had been no decisive vote by the peo
ple of Kansas in Its fivnr. The Senate
E asset! Ihe bill admitting Kansas under the
ecomjiton Constitution htfl the HnuVie re
jected It. Tlieu the House passed a Substi
tute bill, which W.13 rcjectctl by the Scnste.
A conference committee wnsRpoiilled Irom
the two Houscs.and Mr. Englishes a lnem
bcr of that coiniiilttee,subiiiitttd a bill which
provitled for the submission of tit 0 question
of tho ltd mission of Kansas under the he
compton Constitution to 11 vutu of the peo
ple of Kansas. Tho bill vas ucce p'ed by
both branches of Congress, i-'n'd' it becamo a
law. ,
This act' referred tho qheslinn back' to the,
peoplo of Kansas, and they voted ogninsl
admission under tho Lecomplon CouHllii
tton. After tl.'e ptusago of this bill, Pr-asi'
dent Buchanan cll'ered Mr. English an im-
lortant position in hla administration, mid
a similar offer was made b. resident John
sjn, with whom' Mr. English had been iri
the IIouso of IteiiresoiTtalivos but both of
fers were declin'cii. Of tho tvfo Senators and
eleven Representatives conftiliittnc;the In
diana delegation in the Thirty third Con
gress, only Mr. English und Thomas A.
Ilendrick3 aro living.
His election Tor tho fourth tlm& in" 1858
was by a larger majority than uver.nlthougti
few Democratic Congressmen were elected;
in the Not 111 in ti1atc.1mp.1ign. Healtend
cil the Charleston Convention, not as a del
egate, but in the capacity of -leab'eiiliker.
Beforo th'o dote of tho Convention ho re
turned to Viishington,dlscouruged by tho
poor prospect fur harmony. In a speech"
madS shortly alter Ins return he said : "I
may be permitted to soy, Bir, upon this sub
ject oftha Presidency, that I have but little
sympathy with thosu who imperiously de
mand 'Ctesar or nobody;' no sympathy with?
Ih.it rulo or-ruln spirit which ha3 been ex-v
hibited too much of Into iu both wings nf
the Democratic party," The nibv'enient of
tho South toward secession was opjlosod by
him us stoutly as had' been the pm-nsa' to'
admit Kunaaa under tho Lecoiil))ton Coiitli
tutioti. "TMfrrcnt Deuiuc atiu party," he
said, "that has so long ami so justly bosste4
of its nationality, must not degenerate into a!
mere Southern sectional patty, or a party
that tolerates the sentiment of disunion; if
it docs, ils days are numbered and Ils mis
sion onded." Again ho said, addressing his
words to the Southern Ubprc-reulatives in

office till July, 1877whcn he retired from
active business. His position In rezard to
qUestion of the national finances is sufficient,
ly set forth In an interview which he gave
while, he was President of the- Indianapolis
bank. He said:
