to have been the tool of conspiratorswho intended the overthrow of the recon¬

against the Cheyenne Indians, cost the Gov¬ernment $9,000,000 nnd proved a failure.

Saltimokk, Juno 25..Tho nomination of GeneralHancock for tb© Presidency hus lovived in Demo¬cratic circles tbe history of leis connection witb Hmexecution of Mit. Surratt. who, together with
Payne, Atzerodt and Harold, wa9 hauledin the Old Capitol Prison yard, Washing¬ton, July 7,1865. for complicity in the scheme thatresulted in tho assassination of President Lin¬
coln, and very nearly tn the murder of
Becretary Seward. Democratic organs andoratora have heretofore charged that GeneralHancock, who was in command of tho troops in nnd
.round Washington at tbe time, could havo savedMn. Surratt if he had chosen to do so. They havo
complained that ho not only disobeyed thc writ of
habeas corpus tbat was issued to him ou the
preceding day to produce Mrs. Surrattin court, but thut he also preventedher daughter from seeing President Johnson whenshe went to tho White House to beg for a reprieve,.nd that in various other ways he toil, care tbattbe execution should take place at the appointedhour. But since General Hancock loomed up
as a Democratio leader tbe party havetaken another tack. Thev Rave urged tbatHancock did not desiro that Mrs. Surratt should It-
banged ; that he Implored President Johnson to bemerciful to her; and that on the day of the hanginghe stationed patrols of cavalry between the White
House and tbe scene of execution, so tbat if a re*
j prieve for Mrs. Surratt should bc granted at the lastmoment it would bo conveyed to him with all possi¬ble expedition.Some curious illustrations of the trouble the
Democrats are to bave among themselves over
this case came out in interviewswith Mrs. Surratt's daughter and lier
husband yesterday and to-day. Miss Anna Surratt is
dow tbe wife of Professor Wm. P. Tonry, and residesIn this city. Mrs. Tonry was first seen on Thursday.ftemoon. She ls a rather tall and slender lady,evidently of a very nervous temperament, and bearsiu ber face and expression tbe traces of theterrible ordeal thronah which she passedfifteen years ago. To tbe inquiries of the
correspondent, she responded that sbe had heard oftbe nomination of General Hancock.Tlie correspondent theu said to Mrs. Tonry : " The
Democratic papers are asserting that the partplayed by General Hancock in the execution was
altogether honorable and fair, and that he did what¬ever he could to save yonr mother. Now, is thattruerMrs. Tonry hesitated for a few moments to an¬
swer, and the recollection of past events seemedpainful to ber. Finally she said that such re¬
ports were not true, and added that neither she nor
.ny of her family bad any good feeling for GeneralHancock.Correspondent."Do you believe that General
Hancock on tbat occasion acted as a friend towardyon and your mother T"Mrs. Tonry." I do not. You could not call his
conduct exactly brutal, but I do believe be wishedfor tbe execution of my mother, aud would not so
mneh as bavo lifted his finger to prevent it.
Myself and mother were arrested at thesame time and imprisoned in the Old Capitol.Subsequently I was released and she was
taken to the Arsenal. I had to get my
passes to see her from Secretary Stanton, and thentake tbem to be countersigned by General Hancock,I sa vt* him a dozen timos or more; he never ex¬
pressed to me tho slightest sympathy with mymother. If he was anxious to prevent the execu¬
tion be did not do or say any tiling at that time tbatI know of, and I think that I was the proper personto be informed about it."Correspondent." As I understand it, yon went to
General Hancock on tbe morning of tbe execution,at his headquarters at the Metropolitan Hotel, at
Washington, and had a long interview with bimthere. Can yon tell me what then occurred f"
Mrs. Tonry." I cannot answer that questionwithout giving more thought to those matters thanI can possibly do at this moment."Correspondent." Tou can (rt least tell roe
whether the impression formed npon your mindthen was that General Hancock was the friend ofyourself and your mother."Mrs. Tonry (in an excited and emphatic tone).
" No, sir; be was not. If I went to tell you all thathappened and all that was said at that interview itwould be very much to General Hancock's dis¬credit."Correspondent." You know, then, that aU the
.tories as to General Hancock's endeavoring to save
Mrs. .Surratt are lies 1"¦. Mit. Tonry." That isabont the fact."
At this Juncture Professor Tonry carno in. and the
conversation above reported was substantially re¬
peated. The question was again put to Mrs. Tonryas to what occurred between her and GeneralHancockdunng tbe interview on tbe morning of theexecution, but sbe still refused to go intodetails, and the Professor remarked that"The truth will come out sooner or later.My wife bas already told yon that it will do no
credit to General Hancock, aud 1 knowtbat that is tbe fact. For my part,1 wish that be bad been in tbeSandwich Islands sooner than mv party (the Demo¬cratic party) bad nominated bim for tbe Presi¬dency. 1 repeat.to yon that his connection with themurderof Mrs. Surrattwas no credit tobi m. and thatbe deserve* tbe title of her executioner."The interview on Thursday ended at
tbis point. To-day the correspondent.gain visited Mr. and Mr*. Tonry. The ladywas only seen for . few moments, as she was labor¬ing under . nervous excitement that pros¬trated ber. The attention of herself andber husband wac, however, called totbe various attempts made in theDemocratio paper* to explain General Hancock'scood-ct, aod they ware requested to say what theythought .boot it.Mrs.Tonry retired to seek reliefirom her feelings,
bat hw husband spoke for ber. He said he
,bad Mea io one of tbe Baltimorepaper* what purported to he tbe correctnarrative of General Hancock's action on that day.
- nothing more nor Ices than on attempt to-"ime. Tbere wm ao easential truth
/eon***, indent theo Mid t " Bot, Professor,roo bave moo ia tbatone pspcr ia only . tithe j
of what other Democratic organs aro trying to do.
They go into the matter much more extensively,and follow out tho samo strain of argument andpretended facts."Professor Tonry replied : "Then they nre elabo¬
rating a falsehood. You may write down thatwhatever is said iu Hancock's favor in that matteris untrue."Correspondent." Then why not tell me precisely
thc story of the meeting of your wife and Hancockon that day T"Professor Tonry." I can't do it just now; she is
the one to tell it; but if she were to try to rehearsethat story it would throw her into bed for live or six
days. Il would he a recital of Hancock's iniquitythat would occupy a page nnd a half of your paper.Can't you be content now with my telling you thatthe story will do him a vastamouut of barm if it is
ever published."Correspondent." The New-York papers to-day
are publishing statements from John I. Campbell,one of the counsel for Mrs. Surratt, fruin
Bishop Keane and from Father Wal¬ter, who attended her in her lastmoments, nil of which aro to the effect that GeneralHancock had great sympathy for the, unfortunatewoman, and waited until tho lust moment, hopingfor a reprieve. What have you to say to that t"Professor Tonry."lt is nil nonsense, or worse
than nonsense. In all charity I hope that Mr.Campbell and tho rest of tbem were merely mis¬taken.''Correspondent." Then 1 shall say that you ut¬
terly deny all assertions that General Hancock was
in any way friendly or helpful to Mrs. Surratt VProfessor Tonry." Precisely so."Correspondent." That's tolerably emphatic.Professor Tonry." I mean to be so. I
want you to understand that of allthe stateuifnts concerning Mrs. Surratt and tin*execution that havob en made up to this timo not a
single one came from or was authorized by any of tin*lamilv. They wero all made up
by reporters we relusoi to eeo, and whowent away and concocted these fabrica¬tions. This is true, not only as regards myself,and my wife, but also as regards her brothers,John anel Isaac Barratt. You aro the lirst news¬
paperman willi whom wc have talked unreserve illyon the question, and I rely upon you to repmt tts
correctly. It is a very painful subjectwith us, ns you may readily understand.and I would not now say a wordabout it, except that Hancock deserves to bees-
posed. H** is playinc a game of false pretences."Correspondent." lhere, is also iho statement
that General HaueBO-ck had relays of cavalrystationed between thc White House and theprison un the day of execution, in order that if thePresident relented a! the last moment be could stopthe hanging."
Pro.e-.sor Tonry." Who ever said that VCorrespondent." lt may have beeu stated npon

aud I am speaking upon my wife'sauthority, that it isa lie; that it is not the first liethat Hancock has told aliout this affair, and it won'tbe the last oue bo will te.ll before tbe campaign is

and prove our side of ibo case."
HANCOCK'S MIL1TAKY BLTJNDER&HIS ONLY IM.lPENDl .ST CAMPAIGN WHICH COST

DIANS.mr TKU-eitupn to tue tribcse.)
Washington, Juno 23..Tho Northern Demo¬cratic newspapers of to-day teem with accounts ofGeneral Hancock's military achievements duringthe Iiebellii.n. Not a word is said, however, aboutGeneral Hancock's last active military campaign.the only erne, too, iq which he ever had an oppor¬tunity as an independent commander to display hisbrilliant military qualities. This was thc campaignagainst the Cheyenne Indians In Kansas iu theSpring and Summer of 1867.In conversation with a Trircvr correspondent
to-night Colonel S. Y. Tappan, who was a memberof the Indian Peace Commission of 1807, recalledsome of tbe Incidents of that famous campaign." In April," said the Colonel, " Hancock marched
from Leavenworth with au expedition of 1,800men. Some of thc equipment of that expeditionexcited much curiosity andamusementamong thoseof ns who had served in that country. For ex¬
ample, anelaborfto pontoon train was taken alongfor a campagn in a region where there is not a
stream that ie not easily fordable. A long train ofwattr carts also accompanied thc expedition, auditbas been irreverently snggosted, by soldiers wbowere not educated at West Point, that tho watercarts might be needed to havo a supply of water suf¬ficient to make tho pontoons nsefnl." When tho expedition reached Fort Lamed."
continued tho Colonel, M a body of Cheyennes.numbering some 400 warriors with their women,children and old men, wero encamped on tho Paw¬nee Fork, about fifteen miles distant. On GeneralHancock's invitation the chief and warriors came
to Fort Lamed for a conference. General Hancockasked them where their women nnd childrenwere, and why they abo had not eoma
in. He was told that among tho women and chil¬dren wero many who had escaped from the. Cov¬ington massacre, at Sand Creek, _>nd they were
afraid to como near the Boldiers. General Hancockinsisted that the women and children shoulel bobrought to the fort. The warriors returned to theirvillage, and, taking their women and children, liedfrom the vicinity. The village was then attackedty the troops, its only occupants being an old manand n demeuted girl, who had been forgotten bytho Indians in their hasty flight. These two In¬dians wero murdered, but not until after the (tirihud beer, assaulted. Tho village was burnell, ex¬
cept about fifty of thc finest tepees, whieh were re¬
served for officers ot thc expedition."Au active campaign against the Indians was
then begun," said General Tuppal). " lt lasted un¬
til some time lu July, when General Hancock sentto Washington tor more men and money. He lim!spent about #0.000,000, aud the livesxif about .100soldiers and settlers had been sacrificed, Congressdecided tbot$1,500,000 for killing an Indian wastoo much, aud the Peuce Cominis.iou was up-pointed."General Hancock was examined as a witnessbefore the Commission early In August, auel ho madoa very pitiable exhibillon of himself in trying toexcuse bis blunder,. The Commission met theCheyennes in September, and readily concluded a
treaty with them. General Hancock's campaign WMan unnecessary, as well as an expensive one, auelits maiutgeuii'iit from beginning lo eud reflected no

Washington, Juue 23..General Uaucock is be¬ing highly extolled by the Democrats on account ofthe statesmanlike qualities he exhibited during hisadministration of tbe affairs of the Fifth MilitaryDistrict in the years 1867-'68. It is worthwhile torecall some of tho events of that period.The order for General Haucock's assignment to
the Command of tbe Fifth District was made on tbe28th of August, 1807, notwithstanding a vigorousprotest from General Grant against theremoval of General Sheridan. GeneralHancock immediately came to Washington,remained bere about a month and was diligentlycoached by ex-Judge*Campbell of New-Orleans,the Hon. Uobert J. Walker of Mississippi, and JudgeJeremiah S. Black. To prove this and to show thatGeneral Hancock wm sn apt student of the pro¬gramme he wm expected to carry ont in Louisiana.nd Te xas, a few extracts from the newspapers ofthat period are necessary.On the 24th of September, after General Hancock
Dad been in WMhington nearly . mouth, » serenade
was given to him, nt which ho made a speech to a
large body of Democrats. Among other things he
said:Citizens ot Washinoto*- i I than* yon fer Ihis testi¬

(FROM THR RRGO-AR CORBRSPOR-_irr OV TM TUROR--)Paris, June ll..The American colony inPariv
though greatly surprised, were mnoh gratiAed on

A diplomat who _j_ewhim in Washington expressed to mc hie belief thalthe Republican nominee will make hia mark at UnoWhite House Mr. W. J. Flagg, late of tbo OhioLegislature, and a Democrat, confirms thc generalestimate of Garfield's strong character and abilities-.The Camoens literary and artistic fete In tb*
Salle Hcrz was a flat affair enough. Evening dreaa,althongb it took place in thc early afternoon, waade ngueur tor the gentlemen. M. Baatzmann, scare-
tary of tbe International Literary Society, and tbatallest of Norway's eons, did tbe honors. CountVon Benst. wbo was to have made a spee-b, didnot attend, and an apology was made in hia namato the disappointed company, which wan
biguly decorated (on the male aide) andbrilliantly dressed (cn the female aida..Tbe reason of his non-attendance waa.bot thiawas not stated.an order from bis government,Victor Hugo's name as honorary president waa altbe head of a programme which tbe mnaie-.ov.ngambassador of Francis Joseph sent tc Baron Hay-merle. Hence the interdiction, which, however,did not extend to the marches and melodies of tbaCount tbat Selznick's hand had learned and were
prepared to perform. Tbere were some long andwarm speeches inPortuguese bva.Brazillan of mixedrace.M. Santa Anna Ncry, and poems translatedinto French prose by Mendez I.dal, the sympatheticPortuguese Minister to the Elysec. Tbe De Frey¬cinet ladies, and those connected witb tbe RassiauEmbassy, were prevented by mourning from attend¬ing ; but Senor Gucll y Rent, and the Infanta, biawife, were of tbe Iberian party, which, in a

It was fearful to see how bamouthed and stormed, and to note tbe suddennesswith which be rose from the softness of a zephyr toa very tornado and hurricane of angry rant. Bnt aabe is supposed to have merit, he was applauded. ThaFrench accept tamely anything which a few criticsof repute are agreed to praise. I never listened withany pleasure to Mounet Sully, though quite aliveto the qualities of Got, tbe Coquelins and Delau-nay. The latter is inimitable in qniet, gentlemanlycharacters. He used to do to the life a spendthriftnobleman wbo was trying to "manure bis straw¬berry lea.'es" by a marriage with a financier'sdaughter. Delaunay recited a poem at tbe SalleHerz glorifying Camoens, Ita author was M. LouisRatiebonne, of the Dtbate. The star of tbe fete waa
Mlle. Barttt. Sbe did not look her best. On tbisoccasion she was commonplace. Sbe wanted artis¬tic vibration, and, wan tlnz it, did not make berhearers vibrate. Tet there was room in the poemwhich she redd for emotion. It was on Inez de Caa-tro.her on whose white bosom love fixed histhrone and dwelt.and was translated from th."Lusiad" by the Abbe* Delille. The ode by DonaLuiz which was promised was not forthcoming.Count Von Beust's music was the only [really en¬
livening feature cf tbe celebration. It baa a pecu¬liar character, and is graceful, subtle, and yet notbord to understand. Tbere is something remindingone in it of Aubert charming facility and ripple.Mlle. Bartet was in a black silk dress. She is veryslender, bnt not well formed. The back ofber corsage was very narrow and held bershoulders and arm- back, giving ber abridled air. Her heels were also bigb. Venusherself would spoil her gait If sbe put on the LouisXV. chaussure, now fashionable. Belles in thiscountry no longer walk; they hobble. MadamaGautherot, the Parisian Mrs. Langtry, advancesinto a salon like a Chinese mandarin's wife, andwhen she has not a male ann to lean npon, is, byreason ot ber absurd Iv bigb heels, tbe most ungrace¬ful hobbler that I bave seen this year.An approaching wedding in high life affords a
sensation to tbe Faubourg St. Germain. The bride¬groom takes tbe bride-elect simply to shield bermot her from marital jealousy, which had slumberedfor eighteen years. On both sides tbere are highbirth, old titles and large fortunes. The young ladywas for tbe first time presented in tbe world at alate representation of "Aida." Her fatber andmother went witb ber, and the futurehusband paid 'to tbem his respects intbe front box, .in which they were exposed to tbaeyes of tbe house. All the lorgnettes were turnedoh them. The young lady is a finely grown girlwith blazing eyes. Tbo mother ia still handsome,but said to be suffering from Internal cancer.
Monsignor Gnibert bas turned a deaf ear to suppli¬cations of the mother to authorize tbe solemniza¬tion of the religious wedding in tbe chapel of hispalace, lt is not yet nettled whether tbe nuptialfeasts aro to be given in Paris or in the country.Sn nat ions of thin kimi nre rare In tbe bourgeoisie.but the reverse in very high society.
