Carolina Watchman MARCH 1, 1877. THE PRESIDENCY. We said in onrlast that it wa pretty c-rtainly ascertuiped that tle Washiqston Curbing Board" would count in Hayes, tipper wrong. There is nothing in the Ant of the past week changing this mclosion. , It . is barely possible (not probable) that he final decision may go tos the House; The Democrats in Congress (and throughout the country) accepted the new plan of settlement and will stand" up to it in goodai'tli to the end, though the lose Mr. Tilden by t. It is ( better f do right than to gain success by fraud pr falsehood. They staked all on the resumed fairness and incorruptability of t'j0 Supreme uourt juugct j, t all, except their honor. -Their oppo jienti, the Republicans, have won a Pres- Tent and itb J"ra a lmSe infaIy which ,vUl cling to them while the world stands. Tae black record will sweep down the cirrentoTtime as ap astonishment and warning to unborn nations. They can never -wasb out the stain nor repair the tfie iniurv thev have inflicted upon the moral sense of the world. One of the results of counting in Hayes ij which all are concerned will be to put aa end to the fondly cherished hopes of financial relief through a change of party administration. It is believed the preaept monetary distress will lc protracted with Increasing force throughout the Hayes term. We should not therefore be delu ded with vain hopes of better times when , there is nothing in the situation to war rant them. Public confidence cannot be Revived by -wickedness in high places. The seizure of the government by conspir ators through fraud, perjury and lawless ness will shake all confidence to its base. The pecuniarily distressed cannot find even a crumb of comfort in this. No one, however, ever expected full deliverance from business embarrassments through the election of a President. "Put not your trust in princes" is a good lesson whicli wise people have all learned. And yet the depressing weight of a great public wrong like this isje undeniable and una voidable, and the authors of it ought to be held to a rigid accountability, ' The moral effect of counting in Hayes by perjured Returning Boards is frightful to contemplate. It is an open proclama tion from the seat of supreme power in favor of the most heinous crimes. Shall they compel the citizen to obey laws which they break in the face of an. aston ished nation! Are such exemplars toBe pur judges ! But wickedness in high places js no new thing. It is an abomination whicli the people have been taught to hate and they will never rest until they drive it out. . They may be compelled to mourn under the reproach and curse of it for a time, but the day will come when they will cast it out, with fury, it may be, but out it must go. The receiver of sto len goods, knowing them to be stolen, stands on the same level with the thief. Mr. Hayes may have had the reputation . of a good man before he lecame a candi- date,lmt he will now be judged by his acts nd by the company he keeps. There is no escape from these common sense rules, which every body- is daily enforc ing in their judgment of men and things. ow mac, me vvasnmgton uciurmng Board have completed the work' of? rascali ty conceived and begun before the election by Grant and his helpers, there: is no longer any need to stand in anxious sus- "I" - a A - . r I ,pense. The people have bee hindered for more than two months from efficient ' ; attention to business by the doubt and uncertainly which has hung on the politi--pal condition of the country. They need pot stand waiting any' longer. The radi pal party has capped the climax of their vil lainy by stealing a President. Let them have him. If is a l;ng lane that has no turn.: Justice is slow but sure, Truth crushed to earth will rise again. The good citizen will submit to much wrong before risking everything on a desperate revenge. The prosperity and the hope of these political desperadoes will perish, nor will it be long delayed.' Let the people wait and watch, an, strike when the time comes. Military. There was a meeting of mili tary men at Raleigh, last Friday, for the purpose of organization of the military of pie State. Many of the volunteer Cpm paniea. were represented by delegates tliose of Charlotte, Fayette ville, Wilming 9. oblsboro,' Newborn,' Raleigh, Salis bury, &c.

He warmly defended himself from personal accusa tions, and, to set himself right in the mat ter, he now moved to lay the whole mat ter on-the table.- At the reouest of Mr. Graham, be with drew the motion, and Mr, Graham offered an amendment which was adopted. : Mr. Scales then took the floor and ar gued in support of the bill. He main tained that this body has legislated for every other class in the State except the farmers, and now they come lorwaru ask ing for a small loan, it would not be right to deny it to them.' - j Mr. Graham argued in Denau oi me bill. . Mr. Coke supported the bill because he thought it calculated to advance the in terest of the agricultural , portion of the State. - I Moore, colored, of Ivew Hanover, and Mr. Green, opposed the bill, the latter at length. 1 Mr. Stanford spoke pointedly and with fine effect in reply to Mr. Green and in support of the bill. Mr. Robinson opposed the bill, at the same time saying that he had'no sympa thy with the newspaper flings which had been made at its introducer. Mr. Graham spoke in reply to Mr. Rob inson. On the passage of the bill on its second reading, Mr. Green called for the yeas and nays, which were ordered.. The bill passed its second reading by the following : " Yeas. Messrs. Albright, Askew, Ben nett, Boddie, Caho, Coke, Crawford, Dockery, Dunn, Ferguson, Graham, Hei lig, Holt, Hughes, Johnston, Liles, Moore, of New Hanover, Nicholson, Robinson, Roberts, Scales, Stanford, Stickney, Short, Thome, -Troy, Williams, Wilson, Wayne Nays. Messrs, Bingham, Bryant, Cun nigham, Dortch, Finger, Green, Justice, Latham, Mabson, Mercer, Nicholson, Bobbins, Sandifer, . Stewart, Waddell, York 10. Upon motion of Mr. Crawford the rules were suspended and the bill was put upon and passed its third and final reading. Mr. Graham moved to reconsider the vote by which the bill passed its third reading, and to lay that motion on the ta ble The question being on the motion to table, it was adopted. This is a loan of $15,000 for which the State takes "a mortgage on all the effects of the Society." We are rather sorry our Senator, Mr-. Crawford, was so forward in this business. He will find it a pretty steep job to convince his constituents of Rowan and Davie counties that this was a measure in the interest of the farmer As a class they never took much interest in the Western N. C. Fair, and it would be somewhat difficult to show that they have been benefited by it. If sub mitted to them they would kill this little project. If the State Fair could not live under the management of a private com pany, Is it not likely to-become an annual State charge! As heretofore managed the Fairs in this State -liave promoted horse racing and gambling and perhaps have contributed some little to advance agriculture. p Mr. Ezekiel Mvers, recently convicted at Richmond, Va., of 6ome charge in vio lation of the Revenue laws, has been par doned by the President, and has returned to his home in Petersburg. We are glad to make this announcement, for after many years of acquaintance with Mr. Myera,-in all of which he proved him self a high-toned, fair and liberal man, his conviction, of crime was as much a subject of surprise as of regret. The case is fully relieved by the following from the Norfolk Virginian, which evidently speaks from a knowledge of the facts ; "Mr. Ezekiel Myers, who was some time ago convicted before the United States Court of technical violation of the revenue laws has been pardoned by the President. This case was one of the most trival and unwarranted that was ever brought before an intelligent tribunal; antThad it not been for the malicious pros ecution of a few radical boot licks, negro witnesses, and selfish money seekers, Mr. Myers would have long ago been cloared of the charge. The" Petersburg Post says that Mr. Myers was released, and on Thursday evening returned to Petersburg, and adds : "We are satisfied that the action of the President in this matter gives universal satisfaction to men of all parties in our city.! The, Great i?oa,--The telegraphic des patches of yesterday morning brought the news that the Grand Commission had counted South Carolina for Hayes. No surprise; They will swallow San Dimingo if necessary. Eight can beat seven all the year found. . Newly elected Senators are congregating at Washington in expectation of an Exe cutive Session after the 4th of March. A motion in the House to recognise the Democratic government of Louisiana and South Carolina, failed for the lack of two- thirds to suspend the rules.

WeTioiwTrwill pass. j HAYES, t V - morrow week as Mr. Hayes mounts the steps of the National Capitol at Wat-h ington to deliver his inaugural address as President of the United States, fifty mil lions of people will regard him as the great centennial receiver of stolen goods. Is the man to bo envied who knows that for all time to come in which he shall breathe the breath of life, he is to be point edout as the man who, in his highest estate was the creature of the foulest dishonor t WiU men for his sake discredit the homely old adage that the receiver ofstolen goods is no better than he who 6tole them t Does any man in America doubt as Mr. Haves swears upon the Holy Evangelist of Almighty God to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution off the -United States, he will know his installation into that high office is in defiance of its plain est precepts t , Mr. Hayes fate is fixed. Insignificance is his portion. If he had a standing army at his command he might retain by force what he has gained by fraud, but that he has not. The handful of men, called the Federal army, will be as straws before the wind in any attempt he may make upon the liberties of the Amefican people. President Grant had to contend with the South only. Mr. Hayes will find an open enemy in every honest man through out the land. Neither he nor his army can draw a single ration without the con sent of the Democratic House of Repre sentatives. Verily we have seen worse times than these. Iialcigh Observer. THE SOUTH AND FEDERAL PATRONAGE. The people of the South are long-suffering, and even as they have endured in the past, so they can continue to endure to the end the open assaults of their ad versaries. But in the name of all that is honorable, wo enter an earnest protest against the recent insidious approaches of pretended neutrals and self-styled moder ate Republicans. Assuming that Mr. Hayes has only to offer the glittering bait of office to a few "old Whigs," and he will at once build upa strong, white adminis tration party in the South, they discuss the probability of such action upon his part seemihslv with no sense of the dishonor involved. Let President Hayes, they say, cut loose from the carpet-baggers, and native thieves who have made the word Republican stink in the nostrils of the South, and let him seek out good men from the old Whigs, who will rally, to the support of his ad ministration. The man who receives the office of President from the soiled hands of McLinn, of Florida, and Wells, of Louisiana, is advised to desert the men who for him bet raved their States. He is urged to propose to the men whose dearest-rights his minions have trampled in the dust, to buy their silence with the paltry gift of office. Tho thief dares to offer: to share his pluriiler with the men4n has robbed of their birthrights. The peo ple of the Southern States are poor, and here and there Mr. Hayes may find his man. Wives and children must be fed, and as men have fatten heretofore, somen will fatten again, and will barter their honor for the mess of pottage. But the recreant will take no following with him into the hostile ranks. The base ingrati tude which proposes to use corrupt means to acquire office, and then affect to disown them, will give Mr. Hayes no additional claim upon the people of the South. We do not anticipate that the proscrip tive policy of the Republican party toward the South will continue ; but it will cease beeause Mr. Hayes is not strong enough, nor secure enough in his seat, to continue it. We do not forget his hypocritical ut terance when it was thought impossible to defraud Mr. Tilden out of the Presidency, that his only regret was for the poor ne groes presumably because they were at the mercy of the Southern ruffians. These same men who could not be trusted with the negroes, are now to be given the, bribes of office, if they will only fall down and worship. We are to look therefore among such old Whigs as Vance and George Davis and Ashe and Fowle and Carter and Leach and Davis and Waddell and Yeates and Shober, and a hundred more, for the new pillars of the administration ! When these men can be had for 6uch purpose, we shall be almost ready to despair of the country. The true men of the South will not link their political fortunes witli fraud. The offices in the gift of Hayes had better bejarcelled out among the Keoghs and Settles, the Tourgees and Youngs, who fought under his flag, and who now up hold the false count whicli gives him the seat of Washington. llaleigh Observer. Well said. "Intolerable, but Xot Actionable." A learned judge in England recently decided on a question of nuisance which came before him that "the alleged nui sance was not an actionable one, although he considered it intolerable." This na tive decision has now found its parallel in the decision of the Electoral Commission upon the Florida and Louisiana cases. "Intolerable but not actionable," The returning boards are a disgrace to the country, a stench in the nostrils of poll tics, a danger to freedom, intolerable to the Constitution, but the Republican par- ty can see no remedy against them. A party which has no power to abate a nui- sance within its own ranks should ask to have its epitaph written. There is no longer any reason why it should exist but a dozen why it should cease.

We are permitted to publish the follow-; ing, from a letter addressed toa gentle-; man in this city from a distinguished rep resentative of North Carolina in Congress : "The decisions of the Commission are, in my judgment, grossly .wrong in strict law they are outrageous and monstrous in establishing fraud's and crimes against certain States in particular and the Amer ican people generally. They are about to deprive the people of their duly chosen ruler and fasten upon them one not duly chosen I feel deep indignation at such a course of action on the part of a majority of the ; Commission, but I shall not allow my passions to run away with my judg ment. II am not inclined to do so, and I am sure tha people do not expect me to do so-j-bn the contrary, they expect and require that I shall coolly and calmly en deavor to protect them, their peace, liber ty an happiness, as nearly and fully as I can. I shall not willingly disappoint their just expectations, I will not be mis led by the clamor and excitement . of the hour, and I shall do, all our delegation will do, the 'whole Democratic party will do, all in our power, according to the Constitution and laws, to defeat the result which now seems imminent the declara tion of the election of Hayes and Wlieeler. This we ought to do, must do, iu an or derly, regular way. Any other course of action might lead to disastrous results it might lead to armed conflicts. One thing is manifest, it can do the country no good it will certainly do the South and the Democratic party great harm. Our friends from the South stand before the country as the conservative power in Congress and they will justify us in the future conflicts that will surely come. This is not our last opportunity the future may be ours. Let us not now by rasli action destroy or impair our prospects of future success. The Republican party, by taking unjust, dishonest, outrageous and monstrous ad vantage of more than questionable power, are bringing on themselves certain de struction. "The view I have expressed is my own, and I believe that a large majority of our political 'associates take a like view of the situation. You may be sure that nothing will be left undone to defeat the purposes of the adversary that we ought to do, but we hope to live after this occasion. "There is a deep feeling here, but I do not apprehend any outbreak. I do not hope for success. We can only make ini quity and wrong more manifest." PROCLAMATION. State of Sol tii Cakouxa, Ex KCTTI V i: C H A M I5K It, Coli mhia, S. C, Feb. 20, 1877. His Excellency, the President of United States, having ordered "that the the white militia companies of the State should not parade on the 22d inst., to celebrate Washington's birthday, in deference to the oliice lie hohls l call upon these or ganizations to postpone to some future day this .manifestation of their respect to the memory of that illustrious President, whose highest ambition it was, as it was his chief glory, to observe the Constitu tion and to obey the laws of the country. If the arbitrary commands of a Chief Ex ecutive, who has not sought to emulate the virtues of Washington, deprives the citizens of this State of the privilege of joining publicly in paying reverence to that day so sacred to every American patriot, we can at least show by our obe dience to the constituted authority, how ever arbitraiiy exercised, that we are not unworthy to be the -countrymen of Washington. We must therefore remit to some jnore auspicious period, which 1 trust is not far distant, the exercise of our right to commemorato the civic virtues of that unsullied character who wielded his sword only to found and perpetuate that American constitutional lilerty which L now denied to the citizens of South Caro lina. Wade Hampton, Governor. OX THE WATCH. Let Mr. Hayes beware. A powerful opposition' will meet him everywhere, dog his steps, cross his pathway at unguarded moments, hang on his flanks, "shoot him on the spot," a la Dix, and do everything in its power to make his Stolen Adminis tration anything but a bed of roses. Mr. Hayes has waked up the mastiff spirit in the Democracy. All his soft words and honied' smiles will avail nothing. The aueak-thief manner of coming by his posi tion has sooutraged the people that it will require more than tho wiles of the "Artful Dodger" to reconcile them to his official acts. The situation is by no means as gloomy as some of our party press represent. The Democratic party occupies a high moral vantage ground. It out numbers the ene my who is guiltily conscious of the means by which the Presidency was captured. Let it watch and when the time comes it can take its revenge, Time itself must bring our revenges. The duty of our leaders is to be exceedingly sagacious in every move, to compromise no principle, and to hit when the right moment arrives. Francis of France, after Pa via, wrote to his sister the Dufchess of Aleucon that all was lost save honor. Not so with the Democratic party. We have saved honor not only, but also the "emblements" of vic tory, to use a legal term. We have not housed these fruits of our labor yet, but ifvwe are not worse than fools we will garner them by-and-hy. 'WH, Journal.

MR. STAPLES' AMENDMENT. The Hillsboro Recorder has this to say of the amendment, submitted by Mr. Staples, exempting capital invested in manufactures from taxation for a period of years : On the first blush this may appear to Ik3 legislation in favor of the rich or of the few. But it will not bear such con struction. It is the first step to take to make this State what nature intended it, one of the first manufacturing States in the Union. Its effect upon our own peo ple would be to attract investments from among our own citizens and divert the hoardings of their earnings to useful en terprises at home. Its effect elsewhere would be to attract manufactures from abroad, over-crowded at home and crip pled by sharp competition, to this State where -the usual consequences would fol low the stimulation of all industries, the increase of population, the encouragement of agriculture by the provision of near and good markets, the diffusion of money, the increase of subjects of taxation, the enhancement of State revenue, and the diminution of the burden of taxation upon the many. The 1 la yes Inaugural Policy Towards the South. Special dispatch 10 the Daltimore Sun. Washington, Feb. 20. Intimate friends of "Gov. Hayes says that his inaugural ad dress will be so moderate and conserva tive in tone and policy that, burring the popular distrust, engendered by the pe culiar circumstances of his accession to the Presidency, it is sure to be received with favor. It is said that the sentiments which he will express concerning the niiairs of the Southern States will 1h? par ticularly pleasing to this section; that his policy will be a reversal of the Southern policy of the present administration; that he will allow the people of the Southern States to manage their own internal affairs just as the people of the other Sjatesof the Union do, subject, of course, to the constitution and the laws of the United States, and guaranteeing that the individ ual rights of the citizens shall be equally respected and preserved. This is all very well, but when a man takes an office to which he knows he is not entitled, the people can have little confidence in the si ncerity of his professions, and must j udgc him according to his acts. AGRICULTURE. The General Assembly has taken up the subject of Agriculture with the ap parent determination of doiug something of real value to promote this great pri mary source of wealth. It insincerely to le hoped that they may succeed. The llaleigh Observer of yesterday speaks of it thus : The bill now before the Legislature, and which is the special order for to-day at 1 1 oYhek iu the Senate, directs that the chief officer of the department shall le an "agriculturist," The work assigned to the department is very comprehensive 7 and we fear too great, for the means ap propriated to its execution. It embraces an analysis of all the fertilizers sold in the State ; a study of all insects injurious to cultivated plants ; of the fungi, w hich in form of rust, mildew, &c, disappoint the husltandman's hopes ; of drainage and ir rigation; of sheep husbandry and such measures as shall encourage this industry; diseases of cattle; fencing; fostering new agricultural industries ; lish culture (it shall at once provide for stocking all the available waters of the State); collection of agricultural statistics ; establishes an exKrimental station at Chapel Hill where the analysis of fertilizers shall lie made and shall carry on such investigations as the department shall direct, make regular reports of analyses and experiments which shall be publishud for general in fonnation. The Geological Department shall con stitute a co-operative department and shall aid in promoting immigration ; pre are a haud-look showing the attractions and advantages the State affords to im migrants; all domestic sources of fertiliz ing, formulas for composting, &c; a reg ister of the lauds for sale in the State shall be kept, where all lands for sale can be entered on payment of $1; andv not to be further tedious, the department has power to investigate any subject which affects agriculture, horticulture, dairy and stock raising. Ashe and Davis, of North Carolina, are classed among the fifty-seven "irrecon cilables." Greensboro North State. We don't wonder. There are no purer men on earth than Thos. S, Ashe and J.J. Davis.
