Shortly after the nomination of Gen. Hancock at Cincinnati, it was charged against him that during the electoral crisis of 1876—7 he had written a letter to General Sherman in which lie had made known his opinion on the disput ed election and declared his intention to support Mr. Tilden's claim if the latter chose to take the oath of office. It was claimed by the Republican press that this letter was little short of revo lutionary in its declarations and that its publication in full would greatly damage his chances for the Presidency. General Hancock from the first said when questioned about the matter, that anything he had ever written to General Sherman might be given to the public. General Sherman was out West when the story came out. On hearing of it he said that he had received no letter from General Hancock upon which any such construction as is indicated above could be placed. Since then, General Sherman having come within reach, the New York World has finally obtained a copy of the letter from his files, with the permission of both parties, and it was printed in that journal and the Times yesterday. General Hancock being spoken to by a Herald reporter on Saturday had this to say on the subject: "1 hardly remembered writing the letter," he said, "until 1 saw a reference to it in some of the newspapers. When 1 wrote it 1 had uo idea that it would ever be published. 1 was in a Western town on private business, with no secretary or member of mv staff with me. I wrote it frankly and with no constraint." "And stick by what you wrote?" "1 never wrote anything I am afraid of having known and that I would not stick to." "And you desire this letter to bo pub lished?" "1 only waited for the consent of General Sherman, and that having been given there is no obstacle against its publication." The following is the full text of the letter: CARONDRLRT, P. 0., ST. LOUIS, ) December 28, 187 G. } MY DEAR GENERAL: Your favor of the 4th inst. reached me in New York on the sth, the day before 1 left for the West. I intended to reply to it before leaving, but cares incident to my de parture interfered. Then again, since my arrival here I have been so occupied with personal affairs of a business na ture that J have deferred writing from day to day until this moment, and now 1 find myself in debt to you another letter in acknowledgement of your fav or of the 17th, received a few days since. 1 have concluded to leave he -e on the 29th (to-morrow) p. M., BO thst I may be expected in New York on the 31st inst. It has been cold and dreary since my arrival here. I have worked "like a Turk" (I presume that means hard work) in the country in making fences, cutting down trees, repairing buildings, etc., etc., and am at least able to say that St. Louis is the coldest place in the winter and the hottest place in sum of any that I have encountered in a tem perate zone. 1 have known -St. liouis in December to have genial weather throughout the month ; this December has been frigid and the tiver has been frozen more solid than I have ever known jt. When I heard the rumor that I was ordered to tho Pacific coast I thought it probably true, considering the past discussion on that subject: The possi bilities seemed to me to point that way. Had it been true, I should, of course, have presented no complaint nor made resistance of any kind. I would have gone quickly, if not prepared to go promptly. I certainly would have been relieved from the responsibilities and anxieties concerning Presidential mat ters, which may fall to those near the throne or in authority within the next four months, as well as from incidents or matters which I could not control and the action concerning which I might not approve. I was not exactly prepared to go to the Pacific, however, and I therefore felt relieved when I re reived your note informing me that there was no truth in the rumors. Then 1 did not wish to appear to be escaping from responsibilities and possible dan gers which may cluster around military commandera in the East, especially in the critical period fast approaching. ."All's well that ends well." The whole matter of the Presidency seems to me to be simple and to admit of a peaceful solution. The machinery for euch a contingency as threatens to present itself has been all carefully pre pared. It only requires lubrication, owing to diause. The array should have nothing to do with the election or in auguration of Presidents. The people elect the President. The Congress de clares in a joint seasion who he is. We of the army have only to obey his man dates, and are protected in so doing only so far aa tbey may be lawful. Our commiMions express that. I like.fetter son's way of inauguration : it suits our system. He rode alone on horseback to the Capitol It fear it was the "Old Capitol"), tied his borse to a rati fence, entered and was duly sworn; then rode to (he Executive Mansion and took pos sesion. He inaugurated himself simply by taking the oath of oflice. There is no other legal inauguration in our sys tem. The people or politicians may institute parades in honor of the event and public officials may add to the pageant by assembling troops and ban ners, but all that only comes properly after the inauguration—not before, and is not a lart of it. Our system doe# not proviae that one President should inaugurate- another. There might be danger in that and it wus studiously left out of the charter. Hut you are placed in an exceptional ly important position in connection with coming events. Tho Capitol is in my jurisdiction also, but I am a subor dinate and not on the spot, and if I were, so also would be my superior in authority, for theie is the station of the General in Chief. On the principle that n regularly-elected President's term o office expires with the 3d of March (of which I have not tho slightest doubt) and which tho laws hearing on the sub ject uniformly recogni/.o and in consid eration of the possibility that the law fully-elected President may not appear until the sth of March, a great deal of responsibility may necessarily tall upon you. You hold over. You will have power and prestige to support you. The Secretary of War, too, probably holds over ; but if no President appears he may not be able to exercise functions in the name of a President, for his prop er acts nre those of a known superior— a lawful president. You acton yourown responsibility and by virtue of a commission only restrict !ed by the law. The Secretary of War ,is the mouthpiece of a President. You are not. If neither candidate has a consitutional mnjority of the Electoral College, or the .Senate and House on the occasion of the count do not unite in declaring some person legnlly elected by the people, there is a lawful machinery already provided to meet that contin gency ami decide the question peace fully. It has not been recently used, no occasion presenting itself, but our forefathers provided it. It has been exercised and has been recognized and submitted to as lawful on every hand. That machinery would probably elect Mr. 'l'ilden President and Mr. Wheeler Vice President. That would be right enough, ior the law provides that in a failure to elect duly by the people the House shall immediately elect the President and the Senate the Vice President. Some tribunal must decide whet) er the people have duly elected a President. 1 presume of course, that it is in the joint affirmutive action of the Senate and House, or why are they present to witness the count if not to see that it is fair and just? If a failure to agree arises between the two bodies there can be no lawful affirmative decision that the people have elected a President, and the House must then proceed to act, not the Senate. The Senate elects Vice Presidents not Pres idents. Doubtless, in case of a failure by the House to elect a President by the 4th of March, the President of the Senate (if there be one) would be the legitimate person to exercise Presiden tial authority for the time being, or until the appearance of a lawful Preni dent, or for the time laid d<>On by the Constitution. Such courses would be peaceful and, I have firm belief, lawful. I have no doubt Governor Hayes would make an excellent President. I have met him and know of him. For a brief period he served under tuy com mand, but as the matter stands i can't see any likelihood of his being declared elected bv the people unless the Sen ate and House come to be in accord as to that fact, and the House would of course, not otherwise elect him. What the people want is a peaceful determination of this matter, as fair a determination as possible and a lawful one. No other determination could stand the test. The country, if not plunged into revolution, would become poorer day by day ; business would lan guish and our bonds would come home to find a depreciated market. I was not in favor of the military action in Soutli Carolina recently, and if General ltuger had telegraphed to me, or asked for advice, I would have advised him not under any circumstan ces to allow himself or his troops to determine who were the lawful mem bers of a .State Legislature. I could not have given him better advice than to refer him to the special message of the President in the case of Ixmisisna some time before. But in South Caro lina he had the question settled by a i decision of the Supreme Court of tho I State—the highest tribunal which had I acted on the question—so that his lipe of duty seem even to be clearer than in the action of the Louisiana case. If the Federal court had interfered and overruled tho decision of tho Slate court there might have been a doubt certainly, hut the Federal court only interfered to complicate, not to decide or overrule. Anyhow, it is no business of the army to enter upon such questions, and even if it might be so, in any event, if the civil authority is supreme, as tho Con stitution declares it to be so, the South Carolina case was one in which the army had a plain duty. Had General ltuger asked me for advice, and if 1 had given it, I should, of course, have noti fied you of ray action immediately, so that it could have been promptly over ruled if it should have been deemed advisable by you or other superior in authority. General ltuger did not ask for my advice and I Infered from that and other facts that he did not desire it, or that, being in direct communication with my military superiors at the seat of government—who were nearer to him in time and distance than I was— he deemed it unnecessary. As General Kuger had the ultimate responsibility of action and lisd really the greater danger to confront in the final action in the matter I did not venture to emhar- - rasa him by suggestions. He waa a de partment commender and the lawful head of the military administration within the limits of the department; but, besides, 1 know that he had been called to Washington for consultation before taking command. I knew that he wu in direct communication with my superiors in authority in reference to the delicate subjects presented for his consideration, or had idea* of his own which he believed to be sufficiently in accord with the views of our common superiors to enable him to act intelli gently according to hit judgment and without suggestions from those not on the spot and not as fully acquainted with the facts as himself. lie desired too, to be free to act, aa he had the eventual greater responsibilty, and so the matter waa governed as between him and myself. As I have been writing thus freely to you I may still further unbosom my self by stating that I have not thought it lawful or win* to uae Inderal troop* in Much mutters as luivo transpired east of the Mississippi within the hut few months, aave MO far as fliey may he brought into action under the article of the Constitution which contemplates meeting armed resistance or invasion of a State more powerful than the State authorities can Mubduo by the ordinary processes, and then only when request ed by the Legislature, or, if it could not be convened in session, by the Govern or, and when the President of the United States intervenes in that man ner it is state of war—not peace. The army is laboring under disadvantages and has been used unlawfully at times in the judgment of the people (in mine, certainly) and we have lost a great deal of the kindly feeling which the community at lurge once felt for us. It is time to stop and unload. Offi cers in command of troops often find it difficult to act wisely and safely when superiors in authority have different views of the law from theirs and when legislation has sanctioned action seem ingly in conflict with the fundamental law, and they generally defer to the known judgment of their superiors. Yet the superior officers of the army are so regarded in such great crises and are held to such responsibility, especial ly those at or near the lieud of it, that it is necessary on such momentous occasions to dare to determine for themselves what is lawful and what is not lawful under our system. If the mililaiy authorities should he invoked, as might possibly be the case in such exceptional times when there existed such divergent views as to the correct result, the army will sutler from its past action if it has acted wrongfully. Our regular army has little hold upon the affections of the people to day, und its superior officers should certainly, as far as lies in their power, legally and with righteous intent aim to defend the right, which to us is the law and the institution which they represent. It is %>well meaning institution, and it v/ou'd be well if it should have nn oppor.rni ty to be recognized as a bulwark in support of the rights of the people and of the law. lam truly yours.
