Br WILLIAM H. BERN ARP. Wkdnesdax. ....August 22, i8V7. EVENING EDITI0N. THOUGH PEAhE SPEAKS1. , Mr. Jefferson bolds the front fank amonii Americao statesmen, j His political teachings are better appre ciated now than erer before. .The treatment of the South since the war : has made thousands accept his theory . of the gOTernment who rejected it prior to the war ot the States. Hence, it is not witnout interest tnat a gteat-grand-daughter of" Mr. Jefferson, Miss Sarah N. Randolph, should fur--; nlsh the New York World with a , memorandum prepared by the illus trious Virginia statesman concerning a bill to regulate the manner of counting the electoral votes inscase .of disputes over the result. It is in- : icnaeu vo leacu jusir sucu as that which, through the rascality of the infamous Eight, gave the election to Mr. Hayes over Tiis legally eleqted competitor, Jtfjt.Tilden. Mr.-Je.ffer- "son's view would have given Louisi ana, Florida and South' Carolina to Hayes, and Oregon to Tilden, secur ing the election of the latter, ad he says "that the certificate of the Ex ecutive of any State shall be conclu sive evidence that theTequisite num ' ber of votes had been given for each elector named by him as such." ; The Augusta Chronicle and Senti nel makes the following pertinent if ntment: -t-$ Ur.i3U i ' "Mr. Jefferson could hardly have, in the wildest flights of fancy, dreamed that this free republic ; could produce Kelloggs, Stearoses, Chamberlains, el id omnea genus." If Mr. Jefferson had lived in our dayVitnd hack witnessed the acts; of Grant and his party in overriding State rights and trampling down local self-government, he would have had aprofounder fcar of the concentrating of power in the hands of the Presi dent or the Congress than he appears to have, entertained, although it- is apparent that his view of the finality .; of a certificate given by the Governor of ,a Commonwealth was influenced to i great extent by his fears of the 1 encroachments of. Federal authority, ' and by his great anxiety td see pre served intact the reserved rights of , the, SUtes.r: ; Thei Norfolk Virginian considers the memorandum quite jns'tlyV as follows : -f Vitlj, l "From it will be seen 1 that 'Jefferson, as might have been expected from his love of State-rights, was not willing that the ques tion, whether this or that body of men were , .properly chosen electors, should go before , Congress. It should be dealt with pj the State,' and whatever might have been the suspicions of bad faith, foul dealing or fraud, if his suggestions mentioned above had become: law. Congress could not have I enquired into them, so long as the Execu- tive of the, particular State was recognized : by it, but. must have received his certificate " s firiaL Evidently in Jefferson's imin'd, suppQBurg that the memorandum mentioned expressed his matured judgment on the matter, the fear of injury from fraudulent action on the part of State authorities; was not equal to that he entertained pf the danger incurred in remanding the whole question to the General Government. But there was no law passed on the subject; Jefferson kept his ideas to himself, and they a - only came to fight a short time ago. i From this, one might argue that he was not fully satisfied with them or considered any action Unnecessary." THE ROLL OF HONOR WHATTHK UNIVERSITY OP NORTH CARO LINA HAS ACCOMPLISHED, p NTJHBEB ; The University of North'Carolina, as we. said yesterday, hasj performed a-most: important parr" I n Sou thern education. nStarting;wit few pupils inj 7?S, Jtteadily gxe wUn. reputa tion and influence until the uujrnber had ; swelled to i sorae 490 . annually, when the war came: on. These stu- dents had -come - from : some ,twcny States, aBd, bofor thenar, we have but little, doubt' that at least . six hun dred pupils would matriqutate during the next term. We are lad to iearh that the prospect for a lir'ge increase upon the attendance during the second year since it was resuscitated, is very flattering. ' It would ho surprise ns if the number did not' ckjual that of 1845, when the University : had been in existence for fifty years. . If such a result can be obtained in three years after all the disasters and mis fortunes to which it was subjected during the destructive Radical rule, it will be a great achiqVement, and will be extremely gratif fat g to all its friends. ; - f ! j s;' We wish to show our readers some .-.-.V"- r-- - -f - ( I j of the fruits of our State Institution.
