The Louisville Courier publishes, the following letter from Gen. Hancock, in reply to some queries made by Hon. C. T. Glover, of St. Louis: Newport, It. 1., July 17,1868. MV Q • • St. Louis. Mo: for your favor of the 13;h inst." "YffffjW who suppose that I do not acquiesce in the work ot the National Democratic CotivenPon, or that I do not sincerely desire the election of its nominees, know very little of my character. Be lie ing. as I verily do, that the preser vation of Constitutional Government eminently depends on the success of tho Democratic party in the coming election, were I to hesitate in its cor dial support I feel that l should r.o! only falsify my own record, but com mit a crime against mv country. I never aspired to the Presidency on ac* count of myself. I never sought its doubtful honors and labors and respon sibilities merely for the position. My own wish was to promote, if l could, the good of the country, and to rebuke the spirit of revolution which has inva ded every saered precinct of liberty. W hen, therefore, j’ou pronounced the statements in question false you did exactly right. Principles, and not men, is the motto for the rugged crisis in which we are struggling. Had 1 been made the Pres idential nominee, I should have consol eied it a tribute, not to me, but to the principle which 1 had proclaimed ard practiced. But shall I care to revive those principles because by the mutual political friends another lias been ap pointed to put them into execution? — Never! never! These, sir, are my sentiments, whatever interested parties may say to the contrary, and 1 desire that all may know and understand that. 1 shall ever hold in grateful remem branc the faithful friends who, hailing from everv section of the Union, pre ferred me bv their votes, and other ex* piessions of confidence, both in and out of the Convention, and shall, do them all the justice to believe that they were ail governed by patriotic motives; that they did not propose simply to aggrandize my personal fortune to save their country through me ; that they will not now suffer anything like per sona! preferences or jealousies to stand between them and their manifest duty. I.iiave ihe honor to be. dear 9ir, Very respectfully yours, Winfield S. Hancock. The Reaction—Deserting a Sinking Ship. The following communication da ed Grand Junction. Tennessee, July ‘4O, is addressed to the Memphis Ava lanche : 1 am happy to be able to announce to the readers of the Avalanche, that the most prominent leader of the Radi cal party in this vicinity, and one* of the most prominent in West Tennessee, has signified his intention of henceforth acting with the Conservative or Dem ocratic party. I allude to the Rev. N. A. 1). Bryant, a Methodist minister, the Registrar of the county, and one of our oldest citizens. Nor is Mr. Bryant alone in his de fection trom the Radical ranks. I hear every day of many signal changes, in various directions, in both West Ten nessee and North Mississippi. Infant nnnt if not most of those in the latter State who suffered their' names to be run on the Radical ticket in the recent elections therefor various offiers, rang ing Irom county Representatives tip to rx have oonre o»t and announc ed that they intend hereafter to art with the National Democratic party. In fact some of them have published cards disclaiming that they were ever Radicals in the proper sense of that disreputable word. It is also reported that the Postmas t?r at Grand Junction, G. A. Woodson. Esq., has abandoned the Radical party —that is, if he ever belonged to it: though I believe he did run on th« Radical ticket last Fall for Representa tives. Moreover, it is currently reported, at Corinth and Inka, that Judge Field ing Hurst, of Purdy, Tet.n.,has chang ed his politics (according to habit, in times past, of changing sides at least once in every six or seven years,) and had signified his intention of rallying to the Conservative banner, with all his henchmen and retainers. One thing is certain, Messrs. Edi tors : all over the country, as far as my observation has extended, there is a very preceptible tendency among the masses of the people to join the now reorganized Democracy. A strong re action is especially observable among the colored voters and others who have everywhere in the South been so inlamously deceived by the Radicals and their carpet-bag leaders. All re spectable white men and freedmen will join the Democracy before the election in November—at leasl in the South. SAM’L H. SMITH, .Editor and Proprietor. —i — jr-~ - ■ C'artersvllle, Ga, Aug.

The telegraph wires brought to this place, on Tuesday morning la6t, the sad intelligence of the death of the above named fellow-citizen and Geor Ilian, which transpired in Athens, Ala., on the same morning. Cause, fever. Gen. 11. was a gentleman in the very prime of manhood, healthy and robust in appearance, and possessed of fine intellectual capacity. He was en gaged in teaching music, in which he was thoroughly accomplished, and had a class in this place which he was in structing, and was also ProfTessor ol Music in the Atlanta Female College. He was very happily constituted in rendering himself agreeable to children. For him they cherished the kindest feelings. He will be buried in Atlanta, with Masonic honors, to-day or to morrow. agreeable lo his dying re quest. Gen. Woflurd’a Appointments.

Kentucky!— Glorious old Kentucky has just rolled up the handsome little majority of from 60,000 to 75,000 for the Democracy. She set* the ball in motion for Seymour and Blair. Let us keep it rolling. Stevenson, Democrat, received 8,244 voles iu the city ol Louisville, and his opponent 492 votes. Thou Queen ot the West, well done !! All the magistrates elect in Shelby county, Ala, are negroes, and not one of them can read and write. Gen. W. T. fYofloid’s Speech. Gen. Wofford addressed the citizens of Bartow County, in this place, on Tuesday last. This is, we believe, the opening speech of the Presidential cam paign in this county, on the Democratic platform, and also the commencement speech in his list of appointments as Alternate Elector for the State at large, in the 7th Congressional District.— The speech had a telling effect upon lis audience, and will, doubtless, re dound in great good to the Democratic party in the approaching election.— Fite very mild and conciliatory way in which it was delivered, met the hearty approval of all who heard him. He abused nobody, and no party, but simply made a statement of facts which all could see and understand. He told the people that while Ceneral Grant was a great Military chieftain—educa ted for a Military man in a Military college, and had won laurels upon may battlefields, yet he knew nothing of civil matters, and was consequently unfitted for the high office of President of the United States. That ifelected, lie would have to call in advisory coun. sel. His counsellors might be good men or they might be corrupt men ; and, in view of that fact, if nothing else, the people had better vote for Mr. Seymour, who is a gentleman of acknowledged legal ability and experi ence in civil matters, having served three terms as Governor of the State of New York, —a gentleman eminently qualified for the duties of that high and responsible office, and not dependant upon corrupt partisan counsellors to direct him. This fact, of itself, was of sufficient importance to cause every law and order man in the United States to vote for Seymour for President. He took particular pains to explain to the colored people present, some of the strongest arguments sought to be used by the opposition or Radical party to induce that class of voters to support the Radical ticket, to wit, that there should be no difference made, on account of color, by our common carriers on railroad cars, at hotels, and in our common schools. He told them that it had been said, by some of those who professed to be their friends, that they were a superior race of people to the whites, and that if they had the advantages of the white man, they would be as far in advance of the while man as the white man is now of lie colored man. He showed them he absurdity of such arguments by appealing to their reason. He said that he was in favor of their having as good cars to ride in as the white man— that they paid the same fare, and were entitled to the same accommodations, but that any decent colored min had rather ride in a car with those of his own rate, where he would feel upon a perfect equality, than to be seated in the white man’s car with the white man, who looked upon him as an inferior being, and be subjected to his taunts and insults. The same line ol argument was used in regard to hotels and common schools. He further ad vised them of the fact that military law had been abolished in the State, and that they were now subjects of civil government —could make their own contracts at their own discretion could sue and be sued in the courts ol ihe country, and were not compelled to submit to the rule of corrupt bureau agents. He further advised them to be more economical with their money, and buy farms and build their own hotels, etc., and that he was in favor of levying and collecting a poll-tax for educational purposes —the colored man’s tax to be appropriated to the education of colored children, and vice versa. As to their being a superior race of people to the whites, if God so designedit.it would be so; but, from the stand-point from which he viewed it, the colored man was of a different race altogether from the white, and any effort made to elevate him above the white, would result in widening the breach already opened between the two races. He wanted us all to live in peace and harmony, and be of mutual advantage to each other, at the same time respecting the interests of both races. His speech was delivered in a spirit of kindness, and with due respect to those who honestly differed with him in his political views and opinions. Let the leaders of the great Democratic party of Georgia emulate bis example, and they will find that sugar will draw more dies than salt. The Bankrupt Law. Fime Extended.— The United Stairs Senate has finally passed the House amendment, extending the time in which applicants may be discharged from past debts, without regard to the amount of their assets, to the Ist of January, 1869. i6rw e are brought under obliga tions to our immediate representative in Congress, Gen. P. M. B. Young, for a copy of the “Report of the Superin tendent of the United States Coast Survey, for 1860, for which he will please accept our thanks. “Intolerance.” We heartily endorse the following article from the .ithens Watchman. and commend it to the attention of our readers. Much injury has already been done to the Democratic party in Geor gia, and elsewhere, bv unseasonable and imprudent remarks from the stump. Remarks calculated to drive eft' rather than add to our ranks good and true men. We are opposed to the principle of crimination and re-crimination on account of past differences of opinion, especially about matters that have al ready been settled, whether in our own or somebody else’s way. What the Democratic party now wants is to bring the people together, no matter what their former party predilections may have been, and unite them, as one man, in the great struggle lo restore constitutional law and liberty to the land. Til is cannot be done as long as the leaders of that great party denounce. Irom the stump and in the newspapers, men who have heretofore ventured to exercise the right of thinking and act- ing as they pleased. Let by-goncs be forgotten, and let us, in the spirit of kindness, present the truth to our fel low-citizens, and by persuasive means endeavor to enforce it upon their minds. Madness has too long ruled the day for the good of all concerned, and instead of widening the breach by abusive and insulting words and insinuations, let us apply the balm of reconciliation to the wounds that have already been in flicted, by treating all as our friends and brothers. Let us. as Democrats, hold up the hands of our great political standard bearers, Seymour ami Blair, by showing up their superior excel lence, and not by abusing and bull-rag ging their opponents. Says th e Watch man : “’Phere is a matter to which we would respectfully direct the attention of our Democratic and Conservative friends, which we believe to be of vital importance,and we hope that no offence will be taken at what wo may fay, as our only object is to benefit the cause. “We refer to the intolerant spirit manifested by certain speakers and editors towards those with whom tliev may have differed on some subjects in the past. For example: We have heard all who vo ed for delegates to the. late Convention, or for ratification of the Atlanta Constitution, or for the Constitutional Amendment, denounced in the most unmeasured terms, and abused like pick-pockets. Now, this is not only impolitic, but unjust. We are told by certain parlies tlut no one except such as have voted lor the above measures will express such an opinion. is.n . mistake Jt.for we did not .utile affirmatively on either of them, and yet we not only entertain, but daily express, tlie opinion that all such avowals are both itnpoli ic and unjust. “There are thousands of Democrats and Conservatives who voted for either one or all of the above, who are just as sure to vote for Seymour and Blair as any of us, provided they are let alone. We differed with them—it was an hon est difference on both sides—and we now have no quarrel with them. They now see, as we do, that the political salvation of the country depends upon the election of Seymour and Blair, and the defeat of the Radical party. We are fully agreed in reference to this issue—it is the only issue before ihe country ; ami so long as they are sound upon it, what sense or justice is there in abusing them because we differed on past issues? Why should they be thus driven iutolhe Radical ranks, when we need every vote we can get ? “This is written in a spirit of kind ness, and we hope out friends will be guarded in expressing their opinions in such manner as to give offence to none who are willing to aid in restoring the Constitution by driving the common enemy from the high places of the gov ernment. Let us have no more abuse of onr coadjutors, even though thev may have differed with us heretofore.” Sunday .Session of the 11. 8. Sen ate. The religious sentiment, or feeling of the whole country is shocked at the Sunday session of the United Slates Senate, which is thus referred to by the New York Ezpress: This great Representative body of “ the moral and religious party” of the country, were in session Sunday morning til! 2 o'clock, and re assembled again Sunday evening, being in session till a late hour. There is no earthly excuse for all this violation of the Sabbath, especially by such a party as cages or fines a German if he drinks a glass ol beer on Sunday, beyond his own household, or pronounces it wick ed to hear a band of music, in gardens, playing airs which are chanted in churches by church organs. The Rump Congress met in March last, (usually meeting for the first time in December.) and re-met in July ; then re-asscmbled in November, a month before the usual time, and now promises to re-assemble again, unless Senator Morgan, of New York, and Gen. Sehenck, of Ohio, (head centres of the Radical organization,) pronounce to the contrary, in the coming Septem her; for, upon them, and upon them alone, depends the re-gathering of the Rump in September! Months of this time have been wickedly consumed iu degrading, nay, destroying, or nigger izing the Southern Stales! Impeach ment,‘too. consumed weeks and weeks. After all this time, thus consumed, the Rump, it appears, haJ to violate the Sabbath in the morning, and the Sab bath at night, and thus to set bad examples, despite the commandment, “ Remember the Sabbath day, to k<-«n it holy.” A Riotous Police. Augusta is in a sad plight with its i municipal officers. We say amen to the first sentiment contained in the following remarks of the Macon Hies senger in reference to that unfortunate city : “ We feel thankful in not having such a government and police as they have over in Augusta. So otrageous and oppressive has the military affair which Meade placed over that citv become, the citizens are holding meet ings to devise some means to eet rid of it. Instead of suppressing violence, the Police have recently been commit* ting murder, and have recently taken an oath to shoot any one who will call them scallawags. The worst possible feeling exists between the people and their local government. Such might have been expected, for such always conus of a government not of their choice being thrust upon a people. That perjured fellow, Foster Blodgeu. is at the head of the citv government as Mayor, and of course corruption and baseness fills every office under him. He has collected kindred spirits around him who run riot over a people in the holding of positions created for their protection. We hope our sister citv will soon get rid of the disreputable crew.” A Sad Commentary. There is (says the Montgomery, Ala. Mail,) seated now in the Legislative Halls, by force of negro votes, making laws for a State that numbers more than a million souls, one man who has been confined in jail for bigamy, an* other who is charged by his hired negroes with having defrauded them of wages, another who is under indictment for stealing a mule, another who has been openly charged with arson, an other who has been a fugitive from justice, another who is pronounced by his wife as a lunatic, another who is charged openly with defrauding the Government, and still another who has been in the Penitentiary. Louliti'ille (Ry.) Dally Courier. This spirited and popular Democrat* ic journal comes to us clothed in an en tire new suit of electrotyped material. It presents a very handsome appear ance. No better evidence of success, which it well deserves. [communicated.] Relief! Relief!! The great heait of the people beats for Re lief. The people of Georgia were all engaged in the common enterprise—the war. Gov. mown picugeu evt*nr uouir ei money, proper ty and credit of the State, together with the lives of the people, for its prosecution. The President of the Southern Gonfederacy did the same thing, and so did our commanding Gen erals. The property of the peop'c was destroy ed; and the blood of our children freely shed. Jhe great heart of the people was dispoiled; they were rendered bankrupt, dispirited— made beggars ; and they are oppressed and and made slaves of our former serv ants ; and we are debtors of the Quartermas ters, Speculators, and of our oppressors and enemies. The jurisdiction of the Court is now denied by the Constitution of the State. As to negro debts, or their hire, and the debts of the State during the war, they are repudiated ; and so of private debts where (he consideration enters into Confederate money, with the exception of executed contracts. [God save the mark.] The rich, with their acres, are protected by a Homestead, (which the rich alone possesses.) By the law there is no lelief except for the negroes, quartermasters, and speculators.— The honest creditor is not allowed to collect a dollar, though his debtors may he rich, and he a beggar. I assert it, relief is honest legisla tion, and the people wdl have it. The ordinances of the Convention of 1805, and the ordinances and new Constitution need reformation. The down-trodden and op pressed poor, honest debtor is entitled to relief, and they can get it, not by secession or revolu tion, but by means of an equitable settlement, which is the end of strife. Reform the law and the courts, and thejuiioe will do right This session of the Legislature can cure much of the evil. More anon. REBEL. A Woman in Man’s Clothing Run ning Away with a Negro.—Yester day morning, on the arrival of the Georgia train. Lieutenant Murphy was at the depot, and his suspicions were aroused by what appeared to be a white man and negro together, very sociable. He watched them a while, and his keen eye soon satisfied him that it was a woman disguised as a man, and at rested both. Soon alter the arrest a telegram was received from the girl’s father, staling that she and the negro had left Union Point the night before, and as king that they be stopped. The girl, whose degradation is so deep that we refrain from giving her name, says that she had been intimate with the negro for some months, and that she was in a condition that would have soon disclosed the fact to her parents, and runaway to prevent the discovery. They were to goto Nash ville. Tennessee, and marry, so the negro says. This she deities, butsays she loves him belter than any man she knows. The negro is a black, ugly, kinky- Iteaued man, about 30, and a fair sam ple of his race. The girl is a bout 18, with homely features and a depraved look. Since the above was in type the father of the girl has arrived in the city, and will return with her to day to his home in Oglethorpe county.’ “The wages of sin is death.” —Atlanta Intel ligcrxcer, 29th tilt. ®U<&»XJES AND CARRIAGES.
