The Tribune says the letter is froui an anny ithV-r for many yèatt Mar the pereoo of Gen. Banoook, and ia ia t ¦ uiember of rus military faimiy. The writor says : General Ilaneock, (ht? deur old man, 8 ju-t now on the verge of' despenden, and knows not which way to turn or what to do. The glitter of the presideney has turned hú hoad, and tho coutinued heat nd turmoil of the campaign, with the dilFerenoes between northern alid southern demoerats (so 6(ronfly marked) to e(jualize and adjiist, - 1 fear will drive hitn stark mad. H , uiy dear boy, Hancock is no more (it for the presídenos than a withered hemr.ck. I will bc frank with you- it is true. Ho know nothirig of the MHIth excopt the few polished and crafty lcadem tihat II upoii hiuj here, uikJ hu brief' acquaintame with the same cla.ss of men in 1867 at New Orlcans. He tucuns well eoongTi, God bless hini, but he cannot coiuprehend the cruokedness of politics and thioM btod-inthe-bonc politicians. And now whilM)ii the sulj'ct [ will give ynu th.e secret of this Hancock move, nnd tisthis: Thnt Indiana disunioni-ii, Williaai H. Siiglúh, is to )v tha ieal l'n-i dent. Èanopok is not expected to live out a fraction of his term, and that expectation, I iiin sorry to say, is Ibundeil on facts. Any diRres.sion f'rom bis regular habits is liable to bring on an Hpopbotic stroke. Strong Bymptoms liave twice exhibited thembotvea since his ootniöation, iiml it is the verdict of all around hjin that his promotion tothe presideney will tenninate his earthly career. But this fact h:n been, and is, most care ful ly guarded, for reasoiM you can readily discern. And now, dear loy, you have the inside of this presidential busimss. With Kniish as president you can nadily coiuprehend what those ghrewd fellows of the sou h fan acooiupltsh.
