' Thero tre very many Demacrats who be lloro that their party could nominate Crocijrer candidate for president than Gen eral Winfleld Scott Ilancock, the ranking Major-General of the army. He possesses th advantage of undoubtedly ability, of a conspicuously distinguished record, and almost unbounded popularity wherever ho is known. He is prudent, sincere, conserr ative end inflexible iq his loyalty to princi ples approved by his judgment. In any position to which he might bo called he would do his wholo duty. General Hancok is a native of Pennsyl vania having been bom in Montgomery ounty,in that state, on the 14th of Febru ary, 1824. He graduated at West Point ;n 1844, aud served mainly on frontier duty until 1840, and afterwards in the war with Mexico, being breveted as first lieutenant for gallant and meritorious conduct in the battles of Contreras and Cherubusco. From 1849 to 1855 he was again employed in lronticr dutv. and from 1855 to 18C1 was Quartermaster of the southern district of California. In August of the latter year he was recalled to Washington, and when the army of the Potomac was transferred to tho Peninsula in 1862, he was already a Brigadier-General, with the appropriate command, in the Fourth corps. His first opportunity to make a mark occurred at Williamsburg, and he made a brilliant one. He next distinguished himself in the bat tle of Frazer's farm, and subsequently took an active part in the campaign in Maryland, at the battles of South Moun tain and Antietam. Being made a major general, he commanded a division at Fred ericksburg and Chancellorsville. At Get tysburg he did magnificent work. On the first day of the battle, July 1, 1803, he was sent by General Meade to decide whether a decisive battle should be given. He re ported that Gettysburg wa9 the place to fight, and took immediate command until the arrival of Meade. In the decisive ac tion of July 3d, he commanded on the left center, sustaining the terrinc onset ot Longstreet's confederates, and being severely wounded. The thanks of con gress were formally tendered him for his conduct in these engagements. Being dis abled by his wounds, he was on sick leave until March, 18C4, being meanwhilo en gaged in recruting the Second army corps, winch was placed under his command. At the opening of the campaign of that year under General Grant, he took the active command of this corps, and bore a promi nent part in the battles of the Wilderness, Spottsylvania Court house and North Anna, the second battle of Cold Harbor, and the operations around Petersburg, until June 19th. when, his wound breaking out atresh, he was for a short time on sick leave. He afterwards resumed command and partici pated in several actions, until November 26th, when he was called to Washington to organize the first corps of veterans. Tbe name of every great battle in ti;e east is inscribed on Hancock's flags. After the close of the war he was placed suc cessively in command of the middle de partment, the department of Missouri, of Louisiana and Texas, of Dakotah, and of the department of the east. He has his headquarters on Governor's island. In the Democratic national convention of 1868 he received 144 votes for the presidential nomination. In 1876, in the national con vention of the same party, he received 75 votes for the same nomination. He is now supported by the Democrats of Pennsyl vania, Texas and some eastern states, aud will be strongly urged m the Cincinnati convention. General Hancock has uniformly main tained the doctrine that the military power should in time of peace be subordinated to the civil law. This was particullay shown in his address to the court inquiry constituted to try Gereral Babcock, in 1873, in which he urged that that officer having been formally indicted at St. Louis, it was right and proper that the military inquiry should be adjourned in order that the ordinary civil processes might take their course which suggestion was duly adopted. In 1803, while in command of the Fifth mili tary district, General Hancock, in a letter to Governor Pease, said: "On them (the laws of Texas and Louisi ana), as on a foundation of rock, reposes almost the entire structure of social order in these two states. Annul this code of laws, and there would be no longer any rights, either of person or property, here. I say, unhesitatingly, if it were possible that congress should paes an act abolishing the local codes for Louisiana and Tcxas,which I do not believe, and it is should fall to my lot to supply their places with something of niv own, I do not see how I could do better than follow the laws in force here prior to the rebellion, excepting wherein they shall relate to slavery. Power may destroy the forms, but not the principles, of justice; these will live in spite of the sword." General Hancock is a man of handsome presence and most agreeable manners. He is pertectly straight, a blonde, with a rich skin and blue eyes, and light hair, now turniu!' gray; and his address is both courtly aud simple. General Hancock, while a citizen oi Pennsylvania, is in almost all respects ot fellowship and association a New Yorker. He is on excellent terms with the leading volunteer officers of the New York militia, and co-operates with them in their parades, shooting-mates, etc. He is a favored guest at the houses of some of the best people in JNcw lork, hut makes no pretension to wcaitti or style, tne regard of his men fur him is boundless. While he would, pcrhup, draw as many votes in New "York as any Democrat, he would poll an immense vote in Pennsyl vania, for he is not repugnant to the good sense and feeling of the Republican sol diery, having never stepped out ot the course of conviction to recommend himself to oue party or the other. As to the imputation that ho hanged Mrs. Surratt, it will be of no effect except among the most igno rant and unreasoning. When the comman-der-in-chiet of the military and navy forces had been uBsasxinatcd by persons living within the military lines of the United States, it would scarcely have been a gal lant example for General Hancock to have pulled off his sword in deference to such ob jects, instead of carrying out tho tribunal, imposed on him by his oath and by Presi dent Johnson. SEA LIONS FOR EUROPE. Capt. Wubbcr, of the schooner New York, started for New York City by rail June 4 with twenty-threo sea lions, which lie propones to ship to Europe, Two bull lions which were put into one cago full to fighting, and after a terrific combat both were killed. Two others which were placed together also fought and one wm killed. Capt. Webber's catch is Raid to be the finest ever made on the coast, and was made in a cruise of a week. The liens delivered in Europe, it is said, are worth upwards of $1,000 each. Los An golos Journal. POLITICAL NOTES. .

The Popularity of the Equitable Life Assurance Society. y indicated by the fact that for Eleven years its average an nual New Business has been larger than that of any other Company in the world, is due, in a great measure, to its well known promptness in the payment of Death Claims, and its rule never to take advantage equitable claim exists.
