LKT NO FLiTTEBf OB PROMISE
8BDVCS THH SOUTH.
As far as we have observed it the
sentiment of the Southern Democratic
press is in full accord with the utter
ances of the Stab of February 20th.
No representative Southern man can
take office under His Fraudulency
without detriment to hie own charao
whosits in the Cabi- sjightingly of His Fraudulency, and 68. balance (deficient) in thirty so

ter. The man
net of a President
fice by uncompounded villainy, trick
ery and fraud who-owes his place to
the unvarniehed rascality of "Wells
and three other fellows of cor
responding genius for plots and
meanness, and to the subsequent in
dorsement and confirmation of Joe
Bradley, Edmonds, Hoar and the re
mainder of the infamous eight, can
not but feel self-abased, self-degra-
ded, and he must expect others to es
timate him at the same rate. In law
theeoseietis partifttpant in stolen U
goods is regarded as a confederate in
crime and held as equally guilty.
If Southern Democrats oould so
far forget themselves as to take office
under Haves it would be good
grounds for suspicion. Pretending
to fight under Democratic banners,
they desert to the enemy as soon as
those banners have been betrayed,
and become officers in the verv army
thev bave ostensiblv ODDOsed. If it
. 0 11
is right to suspect men of any conn
try who 'desert their colors in war
and go over to tne enemy, ana to
brand then astraiters, why is it not
right to denounce those who for the
rewards offered desert principle and
associates and faiths and kindred
and country, and identify themselves
Wltn enemies, usurpere auu piunuer-
era? The ao who serves the Pre-
sidentot wens, onamDenain, steams,
Cameron, Bradley and Company will
not be respected by men of Southern
feeling or nativity who are animated
and controlled by high principles of
honor and integrity.
Hayes has been described by bis
admirers as a negative character. He
has none of Grant's characteristics
unyielding will, bull-headedness,
stubbornness. He will be as clay in
the hands of the Radical potters. He
will be fashioned into just such
shapes as his manipulators may pre
fer or elect. Already, messages have
been sent to him to come to Wash
ington "to talk over his Cabinet;"
and John Sherman, one of the most
contemptible of men, has been to
Ohio to impress upon him what the
conspirators require of him.
We have no donbt now that Hayes
will be compelled by Morton, Chan
dler, and the remainder of Grant's
band to drive from office Hampton
and Nicholls. He will be compelled
to do this, and we pnt no confidence
in any statements that are given ont
for the purpose of creating a differ
ent impression, and of lulling the
South to sleep. We will be only
too glad to find ourselves disappoint
ed in these fears, bat we cannot ex
pect anything good .or just from a
mj
pliant and ambitious fellow of medi- I
ocre parts and small principles.
We hppe no Southern man who
has proper self-respect, and who is
respected by bis fellow-men, will bow
thai knee to the great Radical Baal,
or to the golden image of the Re
turning Board that has been recently
set up. The South mast get in the
main what it is entitled to, for even
the conspirators cannot prevent that;
. .
and as
to tbe OfllCM that It WOUld DO
well for the country if honest and
faithful men filled, we mast try to
get along until 1880, when the spon
taneous' uprising of the whele peo
ple will be such as was never dreamt
of in Radical philosophy, and when
the betrayers of their trusts will be
driven pell-mell from the places they
have befouled and disgraced.
Hayes haa cunning at least, and
canning men will be around him. He
knows that he could give some dig-

der bim. We hope and believe that
-
he wiil be disappointed. Hayes goes
into otnootgh h plaltf of the
worst men in his party, and they will

breaks with them he will be ruined

who have stood passive and remained
silent jfiflfotfrT bull-dozers did their
fearful and fatal work. Those jeaU
ous and distracting councils must
come sooner or later, of which the
poet Lucan has given a strojag anf
faithful picture, when he represents
that there is no common faVth among
those who are clamorous for or
sharers in the plunder and the power,
when each man becomes jealous and
envious of his cOrlaborera an associ- were as follows: Liabilities on un

dent men, especially in theiSouth and
among Democrats, however hungry
for office and thoroughly impecu
nious, will stand from under.
About twenty Radicals from the I
South recently met in Washington
with a view of strengthening Hayes
' " I
in the South. It was agreed "that in
the distribution of offices in the South
it should be recommended to Gov.
Hayes to select men in whom the

tion tbat the carpet-baggers must be

We imVlJ reproduce this as one
of e "straws" now floating on po-
litical waters.
The principles of Washington are
, lh DrinciDleS cf these times. Til

co,,,, who would have rather died
than and who8e hoQOr wa8 more
precioQ8 to him than life. But he is
forgotten, superceded, despised, and
the Constitution is dishonored, ig
nored, disregarded. It is in view of
snoh a condition of things that the
able and biting New York Sun niters
the following :
"Pull down the monument, then, and let
us hear no more talk of rebuilding it that
is, of rebuilding it in honor of George Wash
ington. Pile up the stones again, if the city
must have a shaft, and pile them high. Pile
them up till the apex can be seen for miles
in any direction. At the top of all put a
colossal statue of Joe Bradley, the President-maker,
with a bandage over one eve
and his hand stretched out toward the
White House."
Without in the least degree in
dorsing or countenancing the repre
hensible sentiments of Piatt in the
editorial that caused his prosecution
sentiments that are alike uncalled
for and immoral, we do not approve
of the course of his enemies. It is an
effort to interfere with and, indeed,
to suppress, the free utterances of a
free press. It is an imitation of the
bad example of monarchical govern
men ts in their censorship of the
press. From the days of John Mil
ton, when he wrote his magnificent
Areopagitica, nntil now, there has
been a contest going on between the

which may be the correct one. It
says:

Whenever you see a telegraphic
dispatch from Washington headed
"Democrats defiant; and Morton
wearing a long face," yon may look
out in the course of the next twelve
hours to hear that there is no hope
for Tilden, and another State or two
has been conn ted: for Hayes. Just
before the Florida oount was known,
aispatches were sent stating that
Garfield and Morton seemed depress
ed, and the Democrats were confi
dent, fcc.
Rumors of ail awrts fill the air. In
Washington speculation and fears
are rife. No prophet appears able to
tell what an honr will bring forth.
We tind the following telegraphed
from Atlanta to the Savannah News.
A Georgia Radical in Washington
has telegraphed that "every thing is
lovely" and Hayes is elected. He con
cludes: -'This settles the question of the new
Hayes' part is the South, and that Hill,
having out generaled Gordon and Lamar,
will control the Georgia patronage."
The general tax on $100 of pro
perty is 14$ cents. Amount raised,
$258,717.36. Special tax for the
asylums on $100 of property is 9
cents, raising $126,845.64. Special
tax for the penitentiary on $100 of
property is 6 cents, raising $85,563.71
total $470,126.71. It is proposed
to make some changes.
Goldsmith Maid is still the fastest
trotting animal ever known. We
notice that she is not allowed to enter
the race to come off in New York
this spring for a $4,000 parse. The
terms as announced are "free to all,
