The ; places in him shall II MUlUgllUU .'.WAD : uvn . know- him I no - more forever. The Presidentlial chair U now occupied by a man of larger mental mold if not of pnrer character. Garfield is still covered with the stigma of corrup tion, but lie is not President by the scoundrelly methods by which Hayes obtained the chair to which Samuel j. Tildei?,na:d beenV elected. C It is a grBat relief to know that a Fbaud no -longer sits in the highest place in the G( ivernment. When the "historian, faithful and conscientious, with his I unerring pen writes the narrative of 1 our count ry, he will not fail to pre sent the action of the Republican party In 1876-'77 in the7 proper light; What a place Hayes will occupy in that record ! The sole man who got this Presidency by stealing the srotes ;of two States, and defrauding the people moist shamefully, and wicked ly. His glory will be the glory of in t amy. He will shine in a firmament darkened by crime. No sane, intel ligent, candid man now doubts the fact of the fraud. Hayes knew all ths, and yet he accepted gladly the stolen goods. In power he was re spected by only a minority of the peo ple. In retirement he will be either neglected or . remembered for his crimes. The good he did will be for gotten, whilst the stolen honois will blister his memory. In power he might perchance j 'Wreoch awe from fools, and tie the wiser ' - soaia t . n . To; his false seeming" . . - but in -retirement! as plain Ruther ford Hayes, without a following, he will be despised for what he is. 'The recollection of the great fraud of 1876 will never fade as long as there are free men to uphold the principles of free government in this great land. An immortality o infamy is the in- lev stable fate of t i- . i. B - . Hayes. , He could mot be forgotten if he would. JUTK CCIiTlVATIOK. The State Agricultural Department has been experimenting irthec culti vation of j nte, and with the most satisfactory results. It distributed seeds among intelligent farmers and the reports are highly favorable. Commissioner McGehee, in the Bul ..i 1 L letin for January, says: j yToe specimens sent to the department si thaoest specimens of lbeplant from ia. It has been demonstrated that if the foreign supply were interrupted by war or unfavorable legislation, we nave witnin oar own bounds a source of supply for , this material capable of meeting an extensive demand, aod( of the best quality. Eco. Domical considerations . now govern the production of Ibis article as they do all othters. The impediment to its production on a large scale at present, is tbe want of mills to prepare it for market. It needs nothing but tbe erection of jute mills in jibe State i to make jute cultiva tion a profitable branch of industry. Tbese mills, by the action of steam power, accomplish in a few boors all that was ac complished a few years ago by the tedious ' processes of water rotting, breaking, scutcb lag and hackling, processes which required weeks and even months to effect: it may be assumed as certain; however, that in a State where cotton is a great staple, and a constantly increasing one, capital will not long be wanting for tbe proper preparation of an article so necessary to put that staple in the -market. If a jute mill - were started in Wilmiogtou or Dew Berne, thecnlture of jate would become one of tbe established industries of the State." i ; M ' The suggestion of the Commission- er that Wilmington is an excellent point for, the erection of., a jute mill is one worthy of attention. We hope the cultivation of jutei will be stimulated. I As soon as it is apparent that jute will be grown in sufficient it' - quantities to keep a mill supplied we must believe that enterprising caoital ists will " cause the erection of one i i . L ; -- i - - either at Witmiegton or -some other available point. Mills axe now in operation in Boston and Philadelphia. The Commissioner I his seeds he will distribute to those with suitable lands and who Will i f?ive resntta. The TjHOMslat.nrO 5a Anl!l1ai4 n tn i j- o v to . vukivieu it buo thanks of the people for j remaining in pession a week without compensa tion in order to complete the neces sary legislation. By next Monday, tne aay nxed ior adjournment, all important ' matters will probably be disposed of, and the members will feel all the better for having been pairiotio enough to ' serve an entire week without! pay. t stickling induces laughter, except tickling ia the Throat, which causes coughing, at oaw itnjrea oy ur. iron's UOUga Byrup. We have before us a H e w x ork and! a Boston paper each containing an jarticle highly, , appreciative;- of Tourgee, the notorious carpet-beggvr. ThilCritic, a new; admu-ablyprint- J ed, ana amy . eauea j Bemi-niuui.uijr, contains a very partial and incorrect biographical sketch of the maligner oi ooutdvj.

Is Mill M I career; in North Carolina as being exceptionally brilliant. : The: Stab has never underrated Tburgee's abil ities. ,He is a man of marked talents and because of this he is tha more4 d angerous.- The in j ory he has done the South can never be itoned for; He might be' a saint and devote all of his remaining days to a contradiction of his false presentations of Southern life and character, arid he could hevet overtake the evil or undo; the. .wrpnsjj The Critic says ' his last f tbre-,book, have had a sale of 225,000 copies. :It is probably a fair T estimate to say that one million people have read his caricatures, and ..henceforth will .see theSouffa througk his'distorted vision: But it was to the Boston Journal we purposed to refermore particu larly. That Republican organ has an editorial headed (iThe Actual Dimen sions of Carpet-Baggera." The object of the article is to show that the charge that carpet-baggers . overran the South and pillaged and ruined it is not sustained by i facts. It; bases its statements on Tourgee's reply to Mr. Royall in the Tribune, and shows that in 1870 there were but 10,698 more Northerners in! the South than in I860.! - Suppose that 5,000 of these were of that class known as carpet baggersmen who came not to help build up and rehabilitate the' South, but to impoverish, enslave -and de spoil. Divide 5,000 between- ten States, and we have 500 sharp, shrewd, j corrupt manipulators1 and plunderers at workk in each State. With the recently enfranchised ne groes to use and mislead ; and a large proportion of ; the intelligent! white people disfranchised, it can be nnder- stood readily how much harm could be done. Of course the five hundred carpet-baggers could nos have wrought the ruin they did if unsup ported or unaided by Southern whites. Unfortunately in all the -States enough of white natives cooperated in the game of spoliation to bring swff t and almost irremediable ruin uponlbe South. Look at the public debt of each State in 1861, when the war began, and then see what it was under the joint rule of carpet-baggers, scallawags and . negroes, and you have a full : reply to all that Tourgee has said in 1 defence of his out that only set. Tourgee. makes some twenty-five or thirty Carpet-; baggers held office in North Carolina. We do not know precisely, Imt we suppose at least a half dozen held office in this county alone. The Philadelphia j American, a leading Republican paper, is publish ing letters from Southern - whites. Thus far some fifteen prominent gen tlemen, the most of have borne concurren to the wide iuin and them in office, testimony as destruction of the invading carpet-baggers. : These witnesses are frotn Yirgtoia, North and South Carolina, and they tell the same story. Their testimony. ought to beL full off -set to the statements of a fellow of Tourgee's character who was charged; with. bribery,. arid who received money from George, W. Swepson I whilst a member of j the North Carolina Legislature; accord ing to the express testimony of both Swepson and his clerc, Mr. Rosen thal, j -;,.';,.;f-., 7 , ';,' ( The Journal goes into the Ku Klux business, but takes care not to show why such an organization existed.' It merely gives Tourgee's Version ajoiLnothingtovshow cause why men banded together in an unlawful way.

The Journal and Its; friends never heard, but one side, and Tourgee is their teacher aod wit ness. A professional falsifier is not the proper person from whom to draw material for history. ', Tourgee J has slandered the South , most delib erately and shamefully. Despised by all decent North Carolinians he takes revenge by blackening' their charac ters. ; He Iwrote to a Northern paper that he had seen tbe bodies of some twenty or more Quakers . taken from a mill pond, the viotims of the Ku Klux. Every ; man in the State knows it was a lie and a lie out of the whole cloth. Secretary Windom has written a very strong and pointed letter against railroad and other monopolies. He is also a pronounced Greenbaeker. It is curious that the President, a free trader, and Windonj, ai Greenbaeker, should be in a Government committed against botb. Possibly "' when , the peouliar views of the otheri members are known there may . be other principles held, not supposed to be long to straight-out Republican offir cials. As to Secretary. Windom, the following explains itself, which; we take from an exchange : ' f' ' '; J t- Senator if Windom on.

Senator Conkling, in-his final speech against that measure, just before the vote was taken, said (page 2832): This is inflation .utter and . hurtful. ..' Spasmodic relief may come from it; temporary and apparent prosperity may come from it, But it takes no heed of the fu'ure, except to smooth tbe way to degradation, disaster and distress. Senator Windom voted for tbe : bill, and subsequently,- on April 28 (page 3436) to pass it over tba veto of Gen. Grant." - - ' i, The 'Legislature can pass a bill paying servants in the capitol $312 a year each towalt on' ofSdals not overworked ."mnchlyi" bat" cannot pay $600 or.j$800 a year to the motive power of r eduoationar machinery-7 the Superintendent f Fablio In structionthat he may visit the va rious' parts of the , State to look after the common ; school interests.

Mahone.and David Davis Tef used to go into the oauqas of either party. The Philadelphia: Press, ; Republican, thinks its party will be likely to get the Senate offices.
