But neither movement was necessary, for Sherman was chasing Johnston and Grant was pulverizing Lee. Therefore Hanoock’s battle work terminated in October, 1«H. His military division embraced Washington* and he arrived there On the morning of April 15, 1855, after the assassination of President Lincoln. He was there during the atomy days that iutervened between the crime and the ©*<* ution of the con- irators, and it was under his supervision that ey west hanged. He h i been accused of secur ing the » \<*cuti<siof Mrs. Surratt by preventing her daughter Anna from having an interview with President Johnson and refusing to obey the writ of habeas corpus issued by Judge Wylie for the pro duction of Mrs. Burratt in his court, but cool in quiry has proved that he did not Interfere be tween the daughter and the President, and that as regards the habeas corpus he simply obeyed the suspending order issued by the President. TH* EgCOHStmUCTIOX PERIOD. It is liar.lly to be doubted that General Hancock sympathised with the “policy ’ of reconstruction set up by Mr. Johnston in opposition to Congress. It wss with this understanding that Mr. Johnson, in September, 1H76, substituted him for General Sheridan as commander of the military district of Louisiana and Texas. Sheridan's treatment of the still turbulent ex-robela had been of the drastic kind. Hancock completely reversed it and laid the foundation for his subsequent nomination aa the Democratic candidate for the Presidency. He was scarcely warm in his seat at New Orleans when he issued that celebrated order No. 40, in which he •aid: The General that peace will be bt things.
