CHARLES NoRDHoFF, tho Washing
ton correspondent of the New York
Herald, predicts back down of
the Observation-Disclosures. He
shows how they blusterod and raved
last April about the Presidents
Cabinet, and then how they
knuckled down when the Democrats
refused to baok them. While
Hayes cannot afford to break with
his party, much less can they break
with him. Nordhoff thinks that
even the new appointments will be
onfirmed, although several of the
friends of Conkling and Blaine bite
the dust in consequence.

DOCTORING A CORPSE.
Mr.. Hayes Wants the Republican Party
in South Carolina EeorgariZed.

in South Carolina Reorganizcd.
It is said that tho President has
been in conference with certain
South Carolina Republicans relative
to the reorganization of the Re-,
publican party of that State upon
an honest basis He ia of the
opinion that somo such man as ex-
Congressman Simeon Corlcy, of
Lexington, would be able to lead
the party to victory next year, pro"
vided the old corrupt local politi
clans would take back seats. It is
claimed that each Of tho counties
contains intelligent and honest Re.
publican leaders who have been
driven from the party by the
rasca'ities Of Moses and Chamber
lain hut who would once moro rally
thc masses to victory under tho
leadership Of a man like Corley or
cN~Cony:oseman Goss, of Union.
EX-Scno:or Robertson would, of
course, he selected US the leader Of
such an enterprise, but he has ex-
pressed his intention to retire
altogether from politics. Whether
OF not the project will be carried
out remains to be seen, but certain
IT. is that the subject is being
seriously discussed in Administra-
ton circles.

The Perjured Villain, Patterson.

Now that Patterson is under in
dictment, and there is O certainty
that he will 60 to the ponitcntiary
if he can ever be brought back into
the State, it may interest tho peo-
pie of South Carolina to know just
what deeply dyed scoundrel and
villain he is. Upon the first page
of this issue will be found an
epitome of his career from it's be-
ginning to the time he left Ponnsyl-
vania. It will be seen that he was
most accomplished villain long
before ho came here. He should
have been in the penitentiary years
before he began his career as the
champion carpot-bagger of the
South. The records of tho Penn
sylvania Legislature and Courts,
and of the United States Senate,
prove him, incontestibly, swindler,
a defaulting paymaster, profess
sional briber, suborner of witt
nesses, forger, and a defrauder of
his own 81 sters. And yet, the same
Senate which, scarcely decade
since, refused to make him a petty
paymaster, and branded him with
fraud, now hugs him to her bosom,
not from love, nor even respect, but
because his worthless carcass
serves as piece of chunkwood to
help repress for two years longer
the Democratic tide of reform
already lashing against tho Senate
walls. Should not the party die an
ignominious death that harbors
such a graceless scoundrel as Pat
terson? Are there in South Caro-
linn five years yet of good stealing
for Patterson Heaven forbid!

Old Newspaper Files.

Tho senior editor Of tho New
York Observer, writing from
Dresden, says:
In tho royal library in this
elegant capital of Saxony, n library
of 100000 volumes, I was surprised
to find q complete flo of the
London Times, in bound volumes,
from No. 1 to the present year! I
wonder if there is set in the
United : 5tatGs of America AS q
repository Of English history, what
could be moro important?
The JO,1mol 0es Dcbats Of Paris,
n paper which in France has been
almost the Same Us the Times in
. England, is also here, from it's first
number. Even more interesting is
the fact that l found in this library
II file of the Dresden. Nears from it's
foundation in 1890 down to the
present time, in bound volumes, the
iirst scarcely larger than 12mo
book: continuous series for PIT
years. Thus, in the Same niche,
within reach of any student Of
history, are complete files Of the
London Times, the Paris Debuts,
and the Dresden Ncms, English,
French, and German, Il picture of
the social and political events of
Europe and the world!
Dcsides these there arc in the
same library perfect collections of
all historical works on each and
every country, with maps and
charts and ali needed facilities 10
iilstrate and assist in tie Study.
When to this I add that the
librarians and assistants wee free
and cordial in exhibiting the treas
ures of this vast repository, Tar
more SO than The custodians Of
jewels and pictures in tie galleries,
you will readily believe that my
morning in the Dresden library WIS
moro interesting and instructive
than any other in that beautiful
city. 1t was something to see
original letters that passed between
Luther and Mclancthon to sec
manuscripts Of the Bible that cost
years Of pious toll: illuminated
copies Of celebrated works, on
which lives had been consumed.
All s:lch treasures, like works of
art, have their uses, and when one
is in search OF the Interesting they
answer the purpose. But L must
say, after all, that L have great
respect for complete file Of an old
newspaper, and shall always asso-
cintc with these my pleasant
memories of the Dresden Library.
