WILL not Hayes or Tilden follow in the
footsteps of Governor Colquitt? He is
civil service reformer in earnest. Promis-
ing that honesty and economy shall be the
watchwords of his administration, and that
he will be the Governor of the whole peo-
pie, he says: II went through the cam
paign without promising or even intimating
to any man that 1 should appoint him to any
office. Ideclined all offices that involved
the idea of obligation. 1 am, consequent
ly, free to select for public positions only
those men that consider the best qualified
to fill them. IN making up my list of ap-
polntments 1 shall be guided solely by the
question of fitness. All applications for
office are being filed, and shall leisurely,
during the time preceding the inauguration,
apply the test of fitness TO the applicants,
and choose therefrom those who appear to
me to best stand the test" The truth is,
we do not believe that Governor Colquitt
will even inquire whether fellow come
from Waco or not.

TILDEN AND THE SOUTH.

Honest, good citizens would deplore the
defeat of Mr.. lien, if for no other reason,
because he said not many days ago:
The first sep in reform is the elevation
of the standard by which the appointing
power selects agents TO execute official
trusts. Next in Importance is conscien-
tious fidelity to the exercise of the author
ity to hold to account and displace untrust-
worthy or incapable subordinates. The
public interest in an honest, skillful per-
Torrance of official trust must not be sacri-
feed to the usufruct of the incumbents.
e. But while honest taxpayers and modest,
Industrious, working men most deplore the
defeat of candidate for the presidency
who entertains the confessed purpose to in
vest honesty and capacity with Office, the
professional placeseekers and partisan ad-
venturers are most enraged because of his
possible and wrongful defest. They are
the class who would make the wrong to
Tildeu and to the country a cause for war.
They would aggravate the calamity in
volved in his defeat an hundred fold. They
would destroy the last vestige of public
decency. They would lay waste the fair
ess districts and ravage and destroy. They
are to be gamers, as Escobedo and Diaz
and Cortina and Lerdo and Iglesias
are gamers because of the woes and
progressive barbarism of Mexico. The
very men with whom Mr.. Tilden
has not sympathy in common and who
would rush like starved corps of Floren,
tine beggars to the gateways of the White
House if he entered there-these are the
people, having the least possible interest
in the well-being of the country, who
would drag the Republic down to Mexican
perdition because one man or another of
forty millions is made president. The de-
cency and intelligence and property and
industry and historical conservatism of
Americans cannot suffer such men, in an
emergency like this, to shape the country's
fortunes and least of all to involve us in
strife the most terrible because internecine
not between States, but between house
holds. The South has the least possible
stake in this contest between Hayes and
Tllden, and if there be conflict it is our
duty to ourselves and to the whole country,
to our poverty and future freedom, to stand

WADE HAMPTON is most unfortunate.
Never did a man more love a State than
Wade Hampton South Carolina. When the
war came be sacrificed his convictions of
duty and right and wisdom and crest
wealth and then hazarded his life in illus
tration Of his love for the land of his birth.
Again has he abandoned his pursuits and
the wreck of once magnificent estates and
sacrificed time and money and toll that
South Carolins might be redeemed. But
knaves in Office at home and despot's
agents from abroad have thwarted the pur-
poses Of the hero and patriot, and Hamp-
ton, broken in spirit and ruined in fortune,
must still contemplate South Carolina in
chains and his people consigned to worse
than barbansm in government. Wade
Hampton is the very impersonaticn OF every

our NEW sOvERNoR.

Governor Dick Hubbard's term of Office
may be brief, but it will be full of sensa-
tional, perhaps dramatic, if not of grave
events. He comes into power when local
questions of infinite importance aud tre-
mendous public interests, as the union may
be affected by them, demand the patient at
tention and careful thought of as clear and
vigorous an intellect as that which disiin-
guishes Governor Hubbard. He may by
bare possibility so shape the course of
events that the necessity for an immediate
convocation Of the Legislature may be
avoided. Future revenues may be greater
than statssticians have supposed, and local
and temporary loans may obviate the neces-
sity for legislation; but it is hardly possible
that events of such magnitude as Ns I'M
pending in the Gulf States, soon to be con
sidered in Washington, growing hourly in
force and importance and giving origin to
political dangers which the press fails to
exaggeEate--it Is hardly possible that these
events will not create an absolute necessity
not only for the eonvocation of the Legisla-
ture of Texas, but for that ofevery like body
in all the States. If war supervene or the
danger become imminent, Governor Hub
bard viii hardly undertake to give direc-
ton to the conduct of the State or provide
for grave contingencies that mus, ariss,

district, button-holed voters, and being
pretty and witty, the Doctor was elected to
Congress from the Marietta district in
Georgia. If she 10 with him to Washing
ton she may keep the peace in the family
of States. Women are much given to this
business as we all know. But there was
never war, so historians have SAID, that
there was not woman at the bottom of it,
and if the sex would be ''felt-on" this mo-
mentous occasion in the country's history,
the famous woman of Georgia should ac-
company her husband to the capital. When
Douglas was the rising and Buchanan the
setting sun, he unwisely welded Ada
Coutts. Her associations were wholly with
Mrs. Fish, Mrs. Seward and with the Bige-
lows from Boston, and the result was that
all the Southern women combined to war
on Douglas. Mrs. Slidell and Mrs. DR..
Gwinp, and others we need not name, in
duced the willy Hebrew, Benjamin, to make
that empty but iniquitOus speech on squat
ter sovereignty that burst the Democracy
asunder, destroyed Douglas and deluged
the continent in blood. 1t is well that Mrs.
FELTON, has risen to the surface in Federal
politics, and we only hope that she will de-
vote her genius to the maintenance of
peace rather than to tasks Ike that con-
sunmated by Cleopatra when she whelmed
an empire in ruins.
