The Presidents Policy from Business
Point Of View OF.

The London .Economist, the abiest OF
all weekly business journals, has an arti-
Gle on the President : speech Of the I'D
February, which will be found inthe last
number of the Licing Age. The Ecoao-
mist objects both to the manner and mat
ter of the speech, and commends one
consideration "of grave import to it's
city friends, as the strongest of all rea-
sons why the harangue should find no
supporters on Change I" II must not
be forgotten, says the Economist, THAT
in rebuilding the Democratic party on
the basis of Southern alliance the
President strikes heavy blow at public
credit 1t is not to be expected that the
South, whose own debt has been repudi-
ated should be heartily willing to pay
debt incurred fog the purpose of defeating
them; and if. the South is necessary TO
the new party, the public faith will be, at
all events, less strictly guaranteed than
before. f job s-ilIlr

THE TELEGRAPH.

The telegraph as now managed with
reference to the South, is huge monop-
oily that ought not 10 be submitted to BY
Southern publishers The Northern
and Western journals contain, each day,
column after column of dispatches. In
fact, they are mostly edited by the tele-
graph Having the monopoly in their
own hands, they can reduce the cost to
their own terms rs the revenues of the
business are derived principally from
them Not so in the South For most
meager, and often stale dispatches, the
Southern journals pay exorbitant prices.
To illustrate We pay more money in
Memphis for the few dispatches We get,
than they pay in the West for their vol

times as much As one Of the Southern
journals, We are resolved TO submit

clined to pay for any portion Of the reg

fair, in our Judgment, and from to-day
we decline to take the regular noon dis

THE WAR CRY OF RADrcALIsM.

We,shal probably not soon get over
the charge of disloyalty Every man in
the North who is willing to treat the
Southern people humanely, will be
branded as secession sympathiser, y
and be ruined in the estimation Of the
enemies of the South. Any party at the
North that affiliates with the Southern
people in any election, or measure of
policy, will be charged with disloyalty,
if not treason. OF course many men
will be frightened out Of all sympathy for
us, or, at least, be induced to discard
our friendship from fear of losing posi-
ton, The issue in that section will be
hatred of the South. When a fellow,
ambitious of Office al the hands of the
people, comes before them, he will begin
and end his haranguein denuneiation of
JEFF. DAVIS and the South And he
will succeed, if his opponent evades the
subject, or alleges that that is not the
Issue. 1t is theme that will not wear
out. 1t will do to rak about for the next
twenty years, unless in the meantime
somethieg should :" turn up m
With such an advantage, the Radicals
may count, no doubt, on long lease of
power Every speech, every newspaper
