-' Of Indiana-
A'tfAing can intimidate me from doing what 1 be -tier
to be honest and right.-Hancock in 1863.
The right & trial by fury, the habeas corpus, the
liberty of the press, the freedom of speech, the natural
right cf persons, and the rights of property, must be
preserved. Hancock in 1S8T.
When insurrectionary force has been overthrown
and peace established, and the civil authorities are
ready and willing to perform their duties, the mili
tary power should cease to lead, and the civil admin
istration resume its natural and rightful dominion.
Hancock in 1867.

rllKEE STATESMEN SUPPORT
HANCOCK.
The fact that two such eminent
men aS George Bancroft and Robert (
C. Wmthrop should be favorable to I
T 1 i. u v c U1 . 1
tiiu eieuiiou ui xiaucoci is very uu
ticeable. Mr. Bancroft is not only"
distinguished as the author of the
moat elaborate history of our country
that has been written, bat he is known
a so as a diplomatist, having been one
of our Foreign Ministers in other
days. 'He is now in bis eighty-first
year, and is enthusiastic in his advo
cacy of tho soldier-stjOesraan. Since
the above was penned our eye has j
fallen upon the following in Forney's
Progress'.
"Bancroft is one of tbe ripest scholars in
the world; his life of eighty years,celebrated
last Sunday, has been given, at least sixty
years of it, to a study of governments and
men. He has been successively a Professor
at Harvard College. Collector of Boston un
der President Van Buren, Secretary of the
Navy under Polk, Minister-to England-un
der the same Jf resident. Minister to Genoa-.
ny under President Johnson, and during
all his life a prodigy of literary industry and
genius, having just completed a history of
the Unile4 States thai has no equal rn the
EaglisbJsDguagej considered1 with refer
ence to lis splendid diction and its philo
sophic truth. Bancroft is almost as com
pletc an orator as be is a writer."
In Bancroft we see an aged states
man and Democrat of former days
anxious for the future welfare and
glory of his country, urging the
claims of a brilliant soldier who
unites the wisdom of statesmanship
to the fervor of patriotism as the
proper man to govern our country
during the iour years succeeding the
Fourth of March, 1881. Mr. Win
throp has been in retirement so long
be is not as well known to the young
men of our land as hundreds of
fourth rate men who in intellect and
scholarship are not fit to sit in his
presence. He is by all comparison
the first man in Massachusetts in dig
nity of character, high personal
worth, superior intellect, high culture
and oratorical gifts. Since Charles
Sumuer fell on sleep there has been
:iu rival in the Bay State. He was an
old line Whig and ranked with the
best men of the past when that party
numbered scores of very able men in
itirauks. Mr. Winthrop was in the
U. S. Senate, was Speaker of the U.
S. House, is now one of the directors
of the Peabody Trust Fund, and is
honored wherever his name is known.
He is not a member of any party, but
votes as ah independent. He is sure
io vote for men he can trust and who
will bring no discredit on the good
name of American. Ho is a wise,
patriotic man, ari'd he will not vote
for the sectional candidate, that is
very cenainw uta jetter.to lu&JJos
ton Post of October 2, be Writes:
"But I have nothing to conceal, and this
occasion obligesJme to eay" frankry that I
am opposed to-day, as I have always been,
o any conserted arrayof solid North
against sotidSv'Uth, Tffeae. .sectional an
UgooUms and contentions 'nre worthy of
all reprobation,- bb1 nearer more so than
when fomented and kepjj. alive, on one
aide or tbe etherfor the purpose of pro
longing party power. They brought on Ihe
bwiritay slid interfere with nbeesr
fruits of teatt-.
"The conditiou f iho freedmeu them
selvet their prospects of education, and
their secure enjoyment of all lhe.privi!ei?3.3
of citizenship wculd, in my judgment, be
far more hopeful if the pressure.) a solid
North were taken off from the Southern
States, and if they could cease fo feel, whe
ther reasonably or unreasonably, that they
were under the dominion of conquerors.
"This is the great consideration which
wetchiFOtt my mmdf in lew of ibe cbmine
election, and which will control my vote."
The wise old patriot and states
man, for lie, too, is mellowing rapidly
for eternity, will not be controlled
bv anv other consideration in the
pending canvass than the question of
nationality. Ho will not support the
party that is making war on the
South. He says:
"Bui my vote will be influenced solely
by the desire to help in breaking up the in
tense sectionalism which has so long pre
vailed in our land. I long to see the South
ern neoD.e once more divided into parties,
as they were when I was in public lifeUat
by caste,, or color, or sympathy with a lost
cause, but according to their honest judg
ment of what is best for the whole country!
But the North must concur, and even lead
the way, in this patriotic obliteration of
sectional prejudices, or it will fail to be ac
complished." As an old Whig of the Henry Clay
and Daniel Webster school he knows
the history of tho party it antago
nized in so many manful struggles
for supremacy,aud he knows its histo
ry since the war. Living in the very;
centre of culture and false political,"
philosophy, ripe in experience and
full of years and well worn honors,
the pare and intellectual and patriotic
Winthrop says:
"Let me only add, that I am not one of
those who foresee dangers to our institu-'
tions, or to the general prosperity of the !
country, in the success of the Democratic
party. Nor, in view of- the great uncer
tainties of the result, does it seem wise to
create a panic in advance by exaggerated
partisan prediciiocs In my opinion theie
has never been a moment since the war
ended when it would have been safer to
intrust the government to such a man as
Gen. Haccock, with the assurance that it
would be administered upon principles as
broad as the Constitution and as compre
hensive as the Union."
.Well said, friend of the Union.
This is the deliberate conclusion of
the purest and ablest and most scho- I
larly of the living statesman of Mas- I
sachasetts. Such an opinion cannot
fail to make an impression. Then

the cheering, reports of its corres
pondents throughout the State that
it is looking for a larger majority
than the figures given. It has a care-j
ful estimate of the majorities in all
the counties, aud insists that 48,000
is the least Hancock will get if he
should not run ahead of Til&tn in the
interior counties. But Hancock, it
says, is more popular personally than
Tilden "was, and, therefore thinks his:
majority will be over 50,000.
