nov THEY EXPECT TO ELECT HAYES
Threatened Military Interference in Five
Southern states,

WAsHrNeToN, Dot. 21.-The White House
organ THIS morning complains very bitterly Of
the conduct OF the army oficers stationed in
the South, and especially In South Carolina. 1t
charges that they are susceptible to social In
husnoes, aud deal too leniently with the rebels.
The article is plainly an intimation to army
officers that the Radical leaders here expect no
half-hearted work, and will be satisfied with
nothing but the severest measures at their
hands. The indications are also very clear that
the movement on South Carolina Ia only the
beginning OF q general raid on three or four
Southern States. Tho next point OF attack will
be Mississippi ana Louisiana, and, unless there
Is general popular uprising at the North against
this military interference, a determined effort
will be made to carry North Carolina, Louisiana, ,
Mississippi, South Carolina and Florida by
violence and general intimidation. The party
leaders here are desperate, and are determined d
TO defeat Tilden at all hazards. They have no
hopes OF Now York. but they expect to carry
New jersey and California, and " they can pre-
vent fair election In Mississippi, North Caro-
Ina, and South Carolina, they could do without
New York. This unquestionnbly Is their present
programme. AT the same time, they arc strain
ing every nerve to prevent the Democrats from
carrying Wisconsin, New Hampshire, and other
doubtful Northern States.
