Irish Potatoks.—Families should
remember that Irish potatoes are
nearly as good for man as any kind of
bread. With reasonable cultivation,
an acre will yield 150 bushels. It will be
great economy to use them largely in
place of bread. The idea of making
cotton to buy corn is an exploded fal-
,acv.
Mr. George W. Killen, of Perry, lias
suceesfully tried the tin cun rat trap.
He used a large lard can, half full of
water. On top of the water lie plac
ed enough cotton seed to cover it en
tirely. The trap was completed l>y
placing a plank with one end on the
tloor and the other end on top of
the can, for the rats to walk up on.
In sixnights Mr. Killen caught in this
trap twenty-six large rats.
We learn from the News that a Sa
vannah druggist, while taking a social
glass of wine with a drummer repre
sent ing a house in the same line of busi
ness, slyly put several drops of a pow
erful drug into his friend's wine, by
way of a practical joke. The drummer
began to feel sick and retired to his
room, where lie was found some time
afterwards to be in a precarious condi
tion. The application of restoratives
and careful attention caused him to
rally, but he is conscious that he had
a close call.
The Macon Telegraph says that Col.
C. M. Wiley is considering the advisa
bility of ordering the annual inspec

The centennial of the Chatham Ar
tillery will be celebrated in May-, and
nearly all of the companies of the
Second Georgia Battalion have signi
fied their intention to be present. I f
all of them should conclude to go. a
very handsome and notable military-
pageant might be gotten up.
How Thby Run a Railroad in
Screven.—On Monday last a funny
incident occurred on the Sylvania
railroad. Just before the train start
ed for Rocky Ford several passengers
were standing around, and seeing M r.
L. B. Lanier approaching, and wish
ing to give him a scare and make him
think'he was about to be left, one or
two called for “all aboard,” and en
gineer Johnson thinking the conduc
tor hail given the signal to leave,
pulled out, leaving conductor Moore
and all the passengers standing on
the warehouse platform. On reach
ing Waters’ station Mr. Johnson
found out that he had no conductor
nor passengers, and returned to Syiva-
nia. When he got back he dismount
ed from the engiae and said he could
whip the man who called out “ali
aboard.’’ All parties admitted that
to be a fact, and he couldn't find the
man.—Sylvania Telephone.

NATt'KJK’* OWN KBMKHY, t ore, all
Tlie Administration, on Silver.
The House of Representatives, on
the 3rd instant, adopted Mr. Bland's
resolution calling on the Secretary of
the Treasury for information in re
gard to his past and future policy- oil
the Silver question. The Cabinet had
a meeting the next day on the sub
ject. All were present except Secre
tary Lamar whose absence was caus
ed by- ill health. A Washington dis
patch says, the result of the consulta
tion was that the Secretary- of the
Treasury—Mr. Manning could best
reply by referring to the position
taken by the President in his message
tc Congress, and that taken by- the
Secretary in his annual report on the
subject, 'with an explanatory state
ment that their sentiments remain
uncha nged.
Both the President and Secretary
are aware that a majority, of both
Houses, favor the continuance of the
coinage of silver. Quite a number of
Republicans and an overwhelming
majority of the Democrats favor its
continued coinage. It may be con
sidered a Democratic party measure.
Parties, generally, desire to mould
measures into concrete results. This
is desirable as far as practicable, es
pecially, in measures which a party
deems necessary for the public good".
No party can prosper long when it is
composed of heterogenious members
held together not for principle but the
spoils alone; and the way to keep pow
er and the spoils, is to have good hon
est principles with the generous sup
port of all its members. Undoubtedly
the President and Cabinet were called
upon, on this question, to see what
prospect there was for the President
and the party to move on in harmony.
It seems to us that a President, elect
ed by the combined votes of a party,
ou glit to yield to the general senti
ment of those who elected him. It is
no disparagement of the President
and Cabinet to say, that there are
many in the Democratic party who
are as competent to judge of great
public measures as they are. Presi
dents have yielded to paities some
thing of private opinions—to the gen
eral opinion of those who placed them
in power. There is nothing wrong in
this. Presidentsare not immaculate and
have no right to dictate to their party
wliat measures should be adopted or
rejected. We do not care to add more
to what we have said, believing that
our views are right, and will be in
accordance with those of the great mas
ses, as well as the greater part of the
acknowledged leaders of the Democra
cy of the Union.
Manners.

Manners are of more importance
than laws. Upon these, in a great
measure, the laws depend. The law
teaches us but here and there, now
and then. Manners are what vex or
soothe, orcorrupt orpurify. exaltorde-
base, barbarize or refine, by constant,
steady, uniform, insensible operation
like that of the air we breathe iu. Tiiey
give their whole form and color to our
lives. According to their quality
-they aid morals, they supply- laws or
totally destroy them.

Texas Siftings : “Have you lived a

bling female who knocked timidly at
the Gate of beauty. “I (was only’
good at- one thing,'' said the sprite
before him, with a doleful shako of

quired St. Peter in a voice of blissful
sweetness. “Cooking,” responded the
timid one, in woeful tones. “Come
right in, then,” said the sentinel saint;
“you’ve saved more men from perdi
tion than a.dozen missionaries, and I
don't believe you can find anything
around here in the shape of blessed
ness that you are not entitled to.”

Prohibition and the College,
< hie grand reason why I am oppos
ed to whiskey, and in favor of Prohi
bition is, that the custom of dram-
drinking and drunkeuness has crept
into the churches to a fearful and an
alarming extent. No use to deny it—
worse than nonsense to try to hide it.
Iris so. O, how sad the thought, a
church with drunkards in it! !
The best way 1 see to crush it out of
the church is to send this stron
drink out of the land.
Are there any drunkards in heaven?
T think not. The Bible says that no
drunkard shall enter the kingdom of
heaven. That place would not suit
them anyway, if they could get there;
for they- have Prohibition there strict
ly. < 'oncerning that place I read of
“Living fountains of waters and a
pure river of water of life clear
Those who prefer it, may stand a
belter chance to get hot stimulating
drinks down at the other place. But let
me say to you if any do take that course
that water will be denied you.
We should know no such word as
“Failure'' iu this contest for the ex
pulsion of whiskey, or the retailing of
spirituous liquors. Let us never relax
our efforts until it is pushed to a suc
cessful issue.
Failure here, means death, and to
some tilt* horrors of the second death.
Failure means rags for many children
to wear, and not enough for them to
eat. Failure means wretchedness and
anguish to many a heart-broken wife.
Failure means beggary and crime,
“blood treading on the heels of blood.’’
Failure will point us to the chain-
gang, to the penitentiary, to the jail
house, to the gibbet, and to the
“smoke that ascendeth up forever and
ever.”

Colt uel Ingersoil, in speaking to a
jury in a case which involved the
manufacture of alcohol, used the fol
lowing eloquent language: “I am
aware that liiereis a prejudice against
any man engaged in the manufacture
of alcohol. 1 believe from the time it
issues from the coiled and poisonous
worm- in the distillery until it empties
into the hell of death, dishonor and
crime, that it demoralizes everybody
that touch's it, from its source to
where it ends. I do not believe any
body tan contemplate the subject
without becoming prejudiced against
lhat liquor crime. All we have to do
gentlemen, is to think of the. wrecks
on either bank of the stream of death;
of the suicides, of the insanity; of the
poverty, of the ignorance, of the des
titution; of the little children tug
ging at the faded and weary- breasts:
of weeping anil despairing wives, ask
ing for bread; of tlie talented men of
genius it hits wrecked, the iuen strug
gling with imaginary serpents produc
ed by the devilish tiling; and when
you think of the jails, the almshouses,
the usviiums of the prisons, of the
scaffolds upon either bank, I do not
wonder that every thoughtful man is
prejudiced against the stuff called al

Intemperance cuts down youth in
its vigor, manhood in its strength,
and age in its weakness. It breaks
the father's heart, bereaves the doting
mother, extinguishes natural affec
tions, cfases conjugal loves, blots out
filial attachments, blights parental
hope, and brings down mourning age
in sorrow to the grave. It produces
weakness, not strength ; sickness, not
health; death, not life. It makes
wives, widows ; children, orphans ;
fathers, fiends ; and all of them pau
pers and beggars. It feeds rheuma
tism. nurses gout, welcomes epidem
ics, Invites cholera, imports pestilence,
and embraces consumption. It covers
tht» hind with idleness, misery-, and
crime. It fills your jails, supplies your
alms-houses, and demands your asy
lums. It engenders controversies,
fosters quarrels, and cherishes riots.
It crowds your penitentiaries and fur
nishes victims to your scaffolds. It is
the life blood of the gambler, the ele
ment of the burglar, the prop of the
highwayman, ami the support of the
midnight incendiary. It countenan
ces the liar, respects the thief, esteems
the blasphemer. It violates obliga
tions, reverences fraud, and honors
infamy. It defames benevolence,
hates love, and scorns virtue and slan
ders innocence. It incites the father
to butcher his helpless offspring, helps
the husband to massacre his wife, and
the child to grind the parricidal axe.
It burns up men, consumes women,
detests life, ^curses God, and despises
heaven. It suborns witnesses, nurs
es perjury, defiles the jury- box, and
stains the judicial ermine. It de
grades the citizen, debases the legisla
tor, dishonors statesmen, and disarms
the i tat riot. It brings shame, not
honor; terror, not safety; despair
not hope ; misery, not happiness; and
with the malevolence of a fiend, it

Prohibitionist.—My friend Anti,
I hear you say the success of Prohibi
tion will destroy our noble college.
Anti.—Of course it will. Can the
college be run without m'onev?
Pro.—No. but lias the liquor tax
ever helped the revenues of the col
lege? The city- fathers boasted that
no tax had ever been so applied.
Anti.—That is true, and it is so be
cause the sale of city commons fur
nished sufficient money for the college,
without recourse to the taxes. But
the city- commons are nearly all sold
now, and that source of revenue is
cut off. It must be supplied by taxa
tion.
Pro.-But the present liquor tax on
ly raises about $700, I am told—$100
each on seven saloons. That won’t
meet the city obligations to the col
lege.
Anti.—You must be mistaken as to
the tax, surely. I have heard it said
on the streets, that the present liquor
tax is $500 a year for each bar.
Pro.—I am not mistaken about it.
Tin 1 tax is only $100 a year for each
bar. and has never been higher. The
council resolved that it should be $500
after this year. Whether or not such
ordinance shall ever pass, or if pass
ed. will not be repealed before next
December, remains to be seen. Some
think that resolution is only- a whis
key trick, for use in this Prohibition
campaign, and will be repealed if
prohibition fails in the election. I do
not know. It seems to shift the issue
as between prohibition vs low- license,
to prohibition vs high license. It is
strange that no such resolution was
ever passed until the Prohibition agi
tation began here. Why- have you
“antis’’ never developed this delecta
ble high license until now? You ap
pealed to the people to raise the prop
erty tax, which already touched the
highest lawful notch, whilst the liquor
license was so low as to almost amount
to a premium on whiskey selling, and
not ii word from you as to this new
statemansliip. even to save the col
lege. This looks suspicious.
Anti.—Circumstances do look a lit
tle suspicious. But it is only in looks
I think. You must admit the fact
that the splendid domain of nearly
1500 acres, given the city by the state,
is about gone, and no further revenue
is to be had in that quarter. And the
$700, liquor tax revenue is that much
more than nothing. It will pay $700
of th»' annual endowment of the col
lege, leaving so much less to be raised
by taxation. I am so profoundly im
pressed with the value of the college
to this city, that I subordinate all oth
er political considerations to that one.
What will help the college helps the
town, and that is my politics.
Pro.—I heartily concur in the senti
ment, and admit your propositions.
Very few estimate our college at its
worth. It was brought into life with
great labor and has striven with ma
ny- adversaries since. So wisely was
it constituted, that it has advanced
against difficulties, that seemed insur
mountable. In 1880 its numbers were
351, whilst the other three Branch
Colleges aggregated 673. In 1884 the
other three had been reduced to an
aggregate of 382 scholars, whilst our
college mounted to 420, about 40 more
than all the others together. But for
the peculiar obstacles it might have
attained to^tlie 1000 anticipated in the
first report of the Trustees. Those
enemies were at home and abroad.
The cliiefest of the former was tlie
prevalence of the bar-j-ooins in the
city. Col. Humber thinks that Put
nam alone would have given us thirty
more boys, but for the saloons. Those
thirty alone would have paid $300,
(nearly- half the liquor license of the
city) directly intotlie college treasury,
besides at least $3000 disbursed within
the city-. To these thirty- add 300 oth
ers from other counties, and their an
nual disbursements will make con
temptible the pittance now derived
from the license tax. To these add
the annual accession of 25 families,
seeking the pure fountains of learning
for their boys and girls, and who but
an idiot would believe tlie liquor traf
fic essential to the life of our college.
No, sir. the worst night-mare, that
ever burdened the life energies of Mil-
ledgeville, is this accursed traffic, that
profits no man, but the men who sell
it, and the politician, who leans on
its corrupting power.
Anti.—These things look very like
the truth, neighbor, I'll think more of
them. Good evening.

hibition Talk.
Jackson, Hill and Milleddk!
Three of the proudest and most his
toric names of Ga.! Capt. Harry Jack-
son in speaking of his connection with
the Beck case in Rabun county, said,
"There had been twenty-seven mur
ders in that county, twenty-six of which
were the direct effect of whisky.
Should we hesitate? The bar-keepers
are not so poor. The profits of
wlrisky are great. It is bought by
money, and paid for in blood and

Throttle the bar-room! Bow no lon
ger the knee to whiskey!”
Mr. B. H. Hill, Jr., says, “as Solici
tor General for eight years, he had
tried and convicted TOO convicts. 600
of whom had committed their crimes
under the inspiration of liquor, and
600 convicts from this circuit are
clanking their chains, because they
were first possessed by the demon of.
whiskey." Mr. Hill said, “the same
sentiment that makes a law. will see
that it is enforced.” He said “he was
in favor of
Mental ‘suasion for tlie man wlio thinks;
Mural 'suasion for the man who >lrinks;
Leiral suasion for tlie drunkard maker;
Aud prison ’suasion for the statute breaker.”
Captain Milledge said, “that if the
angel of light could come and with
magic linger write upon the foreheads
of certain of those present, his words
would be "the children of God,” on
the heads of others, the words would
be, “thechildren of the world.” There
might be some consistency in a Chris
tian man voting against prohibition,
but he could not understand it. He
said the money now spent for whiskey
would, under prohibition, go into oth
er channels and rebound in wealth
and increased prosperity.”
The Medical Question.
You say the Doctors can't practice
without whiskey. Now. read from the
leading Medical Journal of the United
States.
THE MEDICAL QUESTION AGAIN.
The leading medical journal' in the
world is The Medical Record, of New
York edited by-George F. Shrady, M.
D., who is widely known as one of the
corps of physicians that attended
General Grant in his last illness. Its_
voice is potential in all medical ques
tions. The last number reviews edi
torially the controversy between Doc
tor Logan on the one side and Doctors
Elkin and Wile on the other, touching
prohibition in Atlanta, and pro
nounces the position of the two latter
gentleman untenable. The editor
writes as follows:
“The verdict of the profession at
present is decidedly against the use of
alcohol as a beverage, and opinion is
growing in favor of a greater limita
tion of its use as a medicine. It is
quite untrue that ‘the medical expe
rience of ages has demonstrated that
pure alcohol is deficient in some of
the most important constituents that
the physician desires to use in com
bating disease. Indeed, if pure alco
hol weie used Instead of the vile con
coctions that are now so extensively
sold, better therapeutical _ results
would i»v n Lie obtained.“
A GROWING EVIL.
DEATH OF GEN. HANCOCK.
Oothbert Enterprise."
Que of tlie most prevalent evils of
the day, and one which cannot be
too stongly condemned, is the tenden
cy, to take into the family circle
strangers whom circumstances may-
have sent this way. Recently the
Americus jail contained twohnenywho
had won the affections of girls and
married them, too, while they- had
wives and families in other sections
demanding their time and assist
anee.
This state of things can be traced
in many cases to the indifference of
parents in choosing associates for
their children. For this neglect,
many times, girls of a romantic turn
meet and are attracted by the fascia
ating ways of some scoundrel, who,
fawilor with the world, knows the
chicanery necessary to secure the
adoration of the unsophisticated girl.
She dreams of him as some prince to
bring her countless fortune, and
pictures a life of ease never before
thought of. He, of course, encoura
ges this line of thought until, in an
evil moment, she is induced to run
away from home to marry- the veriest
sort of ruscal. The pangs of re
gret and sorrow, when she comes
to realize that a lifehas been ruin
ed, can never beknown to the out
side world. It is too lare then for
the parent to correct his mis
take. He realizes his helplessness to
minister to the grief of his child, and
can only apply to the law for redress
of a wrong too great for any penalty-
commensurate except death. He who
allows u stranger whose past life and
conduct is unknown to pay attentions
to his family can expect nothing hut
shame and mortification to be the out
growth.
. Washington Letter.
From Our Eegular Correspondent
Washington, Feb. 8, 1886.
The President and Attorney Gener
al have read and discussed privately-
and with the other Members of the
Cabinet the recent publications re
garding Mr. Garland's connection
with the Pan-Electric Telephone Com
pany. They understand the whole
affair, but the President expressed
the wish that his official household
should take no part in the controver
sy at present, nor say anything for
publication.
This policy- of silence is adopted be
cause the President feels that time
will vindicate the Attorney- General,
and because the source and motives
of the attack upon Mr. Garland are
understood. The war waged by cer
tain newspapers now is well paid for
by the Bell Telephone Company, and
its purpose is to intimidate the Ad
ministration and thus prevent the
Government from carrying out the
programme with regard to suits to
test the validity- of the Bell patent.
But the conspiracy- has in no de
gree discouraged the prosecution of
this suit. It will not be delayed any
longer than is necessary for prepara
tion, an array- of prominent counsel
having been already- selected to aid
the Department of Justice. Solicitor
General Goode will conduct the suit,
and ex-Senator Thurman, Mr. Lowe
ry of New York, an electrician spe
cialist, and Messrs. Eppa Hunton,
Jeff. Chandler, and Whitman of this
city- will assist. It has not yet been
determined where the trial will be
held. The Bell Company wants it in
Boston, while some of the Govern
ment counsel prefer Washington, and
others think it should be argued in
some "Western city where there has
been no previous litigation or feeling
on the subject.
The climax of absurdity- was reach
ed in comparing the Pan Electric af
fair to the “Credit Mobilier.” In the
Credit Mobilier business, officials
were bribed to corruptly act in their
official capacity and give life and value
thereby to a corrupt scheme to filch
money from the Treasury. In this
affair no one has been wild enough
even to dare insinuate that the Sena
tors and Members of the lower House
who invested in Pan-Electric stock,
had any purpose of legislating the
stock into value.
There has been nothing in the offi
cial or personal relation of Attorney
General Garland to this case, up to
this time, that is not consistent with
the highest integrity arid honor. He
has not used his official position or
influence in the slightest degree to
promote the suit against the Bell
Company. On the contrary-, when
application was made to him to bring
suit he promptly declined because lie
happened to hold shares in the Pan
Electric Companv. In declining to
act, he referred the whole subject to
the Solicitor General, and that offi
cial, who had no stock in either com
pany, found a state of things that
warranted the bringing of a suit.
The matter then went entirely out
of the hands of Mr. Garland, and it is
stated by those in position to speak
advisedly that he knows nothing a-
bont the preparat ion of the case, or
the plans of the Government. He
and Mr. Goode have not exchanged a
word upon the subject of tlie suits,
and Mr. Garland instructed the chief
clerk of his Department to hand Mr.
Goode all letters that are received
bearing upon the matter. The Presi
dent will not even consult Mr. Gar
land in the selection of a place where
the suit shall be brought.
All that you hear about Mr. Gar
land’s resignation is nonsense. The
President would not be likely to ac
cept it if it were tendered. He was
satisfied months ago with Mr. Gar
land’s explanation of his connection
with the case, and the Attorney Gen
eral then expressed his willingness to
resign if the Administration felt any
embarrassment over the coming dis
cussion. But Mr. Garland will not be
driven out of the Cabinet, nor the
suits prevented, by newspaper abuse.
The great contest between the Pres
ident and the Republican majority in
the Senate threatens to evaporate for
want of earnestness or rather because
the President will not surrender his
constitutional prerogative at the beck
of a few Republican managers. It
would be very awkward, though, for
these Senatorial politicians who are
so anxious, to make some trouble for
the Administration, to abandon their
efforts just at this stage of the pro
ceedings. The country- has been ex
pecting something dramatic, and they
feel that they must not fall too flatly
flat.

* following official notification of
the Death of Gen. Hancock has just
been received.
< icy k RNon’s ISLAND.—“Major-Gen
eral S. Haucock, of the United
States Army, died at 2.50 this after
noon.”
[Signed “W. D. Whipplk.
Assistant Adjutant General,
General Hancock's death was the
result of a malignant carbuncle on the
hack of his neck, which had confined
him to his bed for several days. No
serious alarm was felt, however, until
shortly before he expired.
Nkw York,February-9.—In front of
No. 8, Governor's Island an orderly
this afternoon was pacing to and fro.
If was the late residence of Gen. W. S.
Hancock, who had died therein at 2:50
o'clock. If the General had Lived un
til the fourteenth day of the present
month lie would have completed his
sixty-second year, having been born
at Norristown, Pa., February 14, 1824
In the first story front room, furnish
ed with soldier like simplicity, lay the
remains of a General who, as tlie
guard remarked, had led his troops to
more battles than any of his contem
poraries. The death of General Han
cock was not a surprise to his family,
but it was a shock to them as to his
friends. Twenty days ago he started
on business connected with the de
partment of the Atlantic to Philadel
phia, where he remained two days,
and then proceeded to Washington.
In AVasliington a boil developed on
the back of his neck. It was lanced
on January 30, and as the General was
much inconvenienced by its presence,
he returned to New York several
days sooner than he had designed.
During the first week of February the
boil developed into a malignant car
buncle, which prevented rest or sleep.
Dr. Janeway was called in attendance,
and it was not until marked weakness
had resulted from the presence of the
carbuncle that the snrgeon discovered
that (ten. Hancock was suffering from
diabetes. Dr. Janeway called in con
suit at ion Dr. (Sutherland, medical
Director of the Department, and Dr.
D. M. Stinson, of New York. The
medical men concluded on Monday
tliat the case was assuming a very se
rious form. At 10 o’clock Monday-
night. before going away, Dr. Jane-
way found his patient in good spirits
amiable to assist himself, and he left
him apparently improved and in
charge of Hospital Steward Robinson.
At 6:45 Tuesday- morning, Mrs. Han
cock dispatched an orderly- for Dr.
Janeway, as she feared the General
was sinking rapidly. The Doctor came
speedily and found the General in a
comatose state, with feeble pulse and
all the premonotory symptoms of
death. The Doctor summoned the
two physicians already named. Hy
podermic, injection of brandy and eth
er and of the carbonate of ammonia
and brandy were administered. These,
however, only allevated the suffering
of the soldier, who gradually sank a-
way until his death at 2:50 p. m. As
stated in tlie words of Dr. Janeway,
the General went down to the close of
his life like a person descended a flight
of stairs'. AVheii death came the three
physicians and tlie hospital Stewart
were present. Mrs Hancock was then
in an adjoining room, The General
leaves his widow and three grand
children, two girls and one boy-, nam
ed Maria, Ada and Gwynne, the issue
of the Generafs son Russell, who died
December 26, 1884, and whose death
the General lias ever since meurned.
The flags on public buildings in this
city were at half-mast within an hour
after the announcement of the death
of General Hancock. The news of his
death was all the more startling from
the fact that few even of his intimate
friends had any knowledge that his
illness was considered serious. As late
as Saturday last he was in his private
office attending to his official duties.
THK NEWS AT WASHINGTON.
Washington, February 9.—A tel
egram announcing tlie dangerous ill
ness of Gen. Hancock was received by-
the President at about 1 p. m. to-day,
and was read to the cabinet, then in
session. Just after the cabinet ad
journed a second telegram was receiv
ed at the White House conveying the
intelligence of his death. The Presi
dent was at once informed, and the
flag on the White House was placed
at half mast. The President soon
after issued the following executive or
der:
Executive Mansion, Washing
ton. February- 9. 1886. 4 o'clock.—Ti
dings of the death of Winfield Scott
Hancock, senior major-general of the
army of the United States, have just
been received. A patriotic and vali
ant defender of his country, an able
and heroic soldier, a spotless and ac
complished gentleman, crowned alike
with the laurels of military renown
and the highest tribute to liis fellow
countrymen to his worth as a citizen,
he has gone to his reward. It is fit
ting that every mark of putrlic res
pect should be paid to his memory.
Therefore it is now ordered by the
president that the national flag lie
displayed at half-mast upon all build
ings of executive departments in this
city until after his funeral shall have
taken place.
[Signed.] Dax’l S. Lamont,
Private Secretary.
The President sent the following
telegram to Mrs. Hancock:
Executive Mansion. Washing
ton. I). O., February 9, 1886.—Mrs.
W. S. Hancock, Governor's Island,
No. 17. Accept my heartfelt sympa
thy and condolence in your terrible
bereavement. The heroism and worth
of your late husband have gathered
to your side in this hour of your afflic
tion a nation of mourners.
[Signed] Grover Cleveland.
Immediately on the receipt of the
intelligence of the death of General
Hancock the flag on the War Depart
ment building was placed at half-mast
by order of the Secretary- of War, and
arrangements were made for the pro
mulgation of a general order formally
announcing his death to the army,
which order will he issued to-morrow.
The Secretary of War also recalled in
vitations he had issued for a reception
to officers of the army, navy, and ma
rine corps for this evening.
