portuDity of making an open attack in

the country to realization OF the effect

These men say they have entered upon
their present course advisedly, and that
there will be no backing down. During
the present week another large poster
will be placarded throughout the city
giving an extract from the remarks made
by President Hayes just after the Novem-
Der election, when he thought be never
would occupy the presidential chair. He
then said in effect that he did not care so
much for defeat for bimself as for the
poor negro in the South who would now
be made to suffer under democratic rule
and to feel kneely the want of true
hand to guide them. This will, it is said ,
be followed by other placards, and the
radical discontenters say they will make
the campaign warm one. They will do
all they can, in fact, to twist the applica.
ton of the Presidents well-known SEN
timents so that his present policy, which
is consistently based upon them, shall ap-
pear inconsistent. ...-

iStration Blaine to Lead the Charge
---Pdckdrd Adrised to Hold on The
Spedkership, dc
WASHINGTON, April 16.-There does
not appear to be any doubt any longer
that the dissatisfied radical republican
politicians have fully determined to en-
ter upon a contest with President Hayes,
and to make determined fight against
the success of his Southern policy. The
elements of opposition which have been
kept below the surface and not exposed
to public gaze have become chrystalized,
and now appear as an organized body
within the republican ranks ready TO take
issue with the President, and to wrest
away from him the control of the party
whose staudardsbearer he was six months
ago. 1t is the purpose of these men to
stir up the political passions of the mem
bers of the republican party, if that be
possible, to the extent of repudiating the
policy entered upon by the new Iadminis-
tration. They say they have counted the
cost, and they do not believe the mass of
republicans outside the metropolitan
cities approve of the desert on of Cham.

ton, but on the contrary will condemn it
in severe terms.
According to the statements Of the men
now here in sympathy with this move
ment against vhe President Senator
Blaine is expected to lead the revolt,
aided by a number of prominent radicals
of the most extreme type. The assertion
is made here openly that within twenty
days after the extra session is convened
one-half of the republican members in the
House will be found arrayed against the
administration unless the President re-
sorts to a very liberal use of patronage,
and gives the members all the appoint
ments they may request. If he does this
he will have to violate his civil service
theories, in which event the independent
republican press is expected to howl Vi
gorously and to denounce him. Senator
Blaine is expected here this week to con-
suit with his followers over the situation,
and to lay down programme for action
until Congress meets. Packard viii 1T is

OF one and two dollar notes, under certain
limitations. Hereafter the Treasury will

will pay these notes out under like limita-

The Glass Day Grafton at Brown Uni
versity last Friday was delivered by In
man E. Page, colored student. who
chose as his text. intellectual Prospects
in America" His speech was an excel
lent one, and his delivery was exceeding
ly graceful. Stronger than any OF the ar
guments which he introduced to show
that the intellectual prospects of the Uni
ted States are Frightening was his pres
ence on that platform. 1t proved that a
colored lad can hold his own in large
college class. and that the students in one
of the oldest American universities are
not ashamed to confer the highest honor
upon a negro classmate. The appoint
ments for Class Day at Brown are not
made by the Faculty, but by the students,
and the most popular man as well as the
ablest speaker generally has the Grafton.
Mr.. Page was admitted to be the strong
est man for the place; his color was the
only thing against him; bis classmates.
who are evidently manly set of fellows,
would not consent to have the color line
drawn in their class politics.
