- ' Urn THE EUGENE CITY GUARD. BAT UK D A Y , !7T. ..KKBKUAUY 13, 1836. DAM'Ol'i DEAD. General Winfinld S. Hancock, the illustrious Hold ier and BtaleHinan, died TuenJay, February Oth, at 2:35 in the Afternoon. II in dt-ath resulted from a malignant carbuncle, Gen. Hancock was born 62 years go in the State of Pennsylvania. He graduated from Went Point at the age of twenty two, and served with honor in the beminole and Mexican wars. On almost every battle-Geld of the Army of the Potomac, he distinguished himself by bravery and skill. At Gettys burg he was severely wounded. He rose to the rank of Major General, and continued in the army after the war. In 1880 he was the nominee of the Dern ocratic party for President of the United States, and although he re ceived a plurality of the popular vote, was defeated in the electoral college. In the civil or military annals of the United States there will be no brighter tame enrollnd than that of the hero just dead. His record as a soldier, 'the wise daring and dash, and tho drat egetic ability displayed in the exigen ciesof war, proclaimed that under oth r circumstances, be might havu proved far greater than he xeeiued. In devo tion to his duty, in freedom from the petty jealousies unfortunately ho often existing among his brother oilisors, and loal in carrying out the oiders of su periors, was most conspicuous, and love won for him the unaUucted admiration of the people, who cared little as to what the name of the sue 'Cessful general miiiht be. No truer . knight ever lived, or approved his pat ent to nobility by feats of daring on many a bloody battle field than Wiu- . field Scott Hancock. Like the brave, true man he ever was, ho ceased fighting after 1 865. . A generous pity for fullsn and mistak on foes, and a statesman like compre hension of the situation after the war, . led him to this course. Tho.to who know him only as a soldier, know but little of the man, He was a statesman . in the best senso of the term, and as such won tho love and admiration of those he had fought against so valiantly . and tifliuiuntly. In taking command of the Department of the South, on Sep tembur 20, 18C7, General Hancock, issued his famous order, in which, after warning the pnople of his depart went that force would instantly be mot ' by force, he continued in tho following i words, which should be in the memory of every American citizen in the tunes of raging political madness: The great principles of American I liberty are still the lawful inheritance ..of this people and ever should m. The right of trial by jury, the habeas r orpus, the liberty of the press, the i freedom of speech, the natural rights of , propei ty must be preserved, Free institutions, while they are es sential to tho prosperity and huppi ness of the peuplu always furnish Urn stronuost inducement to peace and order. The doctrine that an ox Confederate was to bo placed ia the same cate gory with condumiud felons, and that he had no personal rights was denied by Gen. Hancock, at a period when it did not ' add to his popu larity with a class of politicians in the North, who condemned the rebels unsparingly although they did no tight ing to speak of. On their part, the peoplo of Louisiana hhowod their grate fulness and appreciation by supporting liioi in four successive Democratic Na tional Conventions, and in tasting the heaviest majorities they ever gave li e National ticket the entire South ex pressed the affection they felt for tho soldier of the Union. He was the can didats of the South an no other Demo cratic nominee has been. A statesman, no less renowned in war than in peace, lias fallen, and the nation that mourns his loss so sincerely will cherish the memory of his great ness in time of war, and his charity and gentleness in' jHee. Hon. Li L Mc Arthur, of The Dalle, has been appointed 'United Slates Dintrht Attorney for Oregon. This is an excellent appointment Judg McArthur is one of the ablest jurists in the State, and will conduct the office in a manner that will do credit to the Government and the Democracy. Senator Mahons reports that the negroes are flocking into the Demo cratic party in Virginia. Wm Ma hone, tell us something new. The flec:ion last Fall showed that conclus ively. As a result of planting trws in Da kola, it ia reported that birds are mak ! . , . . , . their appearance iht er never act-n there before. I Last Sunday morning the anti-Chi nese society of Seattle in a body pro ceeded to the Chinese quar'.ers, and moved the 400 Chinese and their ellects to fhe dock where the steamship Queen was lying. The commander refused to allow them to be placed aboard with out tickets. After considerable parley ing, money was rased to pay the pis sage of alout 100 who were taken aboard. Before sailing the U. S. Marshal served papers on the captain commanding him to produce the Chi nese in court the next morning. In court all were anxious to go except 16. Tho citizens of Seattle then made the proposition to pay the fares for the entire 400. One hundred and ninety- five Chinamen were taken on the Queen, when the captain refused to receive any more. Under the escort of the militia the balance of the Chi nese were being escorted back to their quarters, when they came in contact with the citizens; the latter trying to break through the ranks to attack the Chinamen were fired upon by the mi litia, and five of their number wounded mm nf wlinin ha funen died, and tlie death of another is momentarily ex pected. After this the crowd dispersed. The city is now under martial law, and U. S. troops being sent from Vancou ver ure garrisonning the city. Great excitement prevails and threats of vi olence are made by the anti-Chinese element againt Judge liurkr, IIhv. L A. Hanks, E. M. Carr and Frank Han ford, who are supposed to have done the shooting. It is a deplorable stale of affairs, and we Mieve that violence is to bu condemned, its it will retard any cause, linwever juHt. . . . - 11 Labor was never more distressed in France than it is to-day. Thousands are entirely out of work, and common laborers are glad to get employment at from thirty to forty cents, while skilled carpenters and blucksmiths and masons make only from three to four francs a day which is sixty to eighty cents a day. Iteports from Ohio, Michigan, In diana, Illinois, Kansas and Missouri indicate that the wheat area sown this fall is not equal to that sown last year. There is ft small increase in Ohio, Michigan and Indiana. The prospects so far are generally very favorable. The more tho people of the North and South learn of each other, tin more they must become convinced that their differences are merely superficial, while at heart and at home they ure really one nation.
