TO Hon. John 3. Gordon and. Hon. John
Yong Bro,on::
GENTLEMEN--Referri to the CONVEX
sation had with you yesterday, in which
Governor Hayes policy as to the status
Of certain Southern States was discussed,
we desire TO say that we can assure you
in the strongest possible manner of our
great desire to have him adopt such q
policy as will give to the people of the
States of South Carolina and Louisiana
the right to control their own affairs in
their own way, subject only to the consti-
tuition of the United States and the laws
made in pursuance thereof, and to say
further that from an acquaintance with
and knowledge OF Governor Hayes and
his views We have tho Taos:: complete con-
fidence that such will be the policy of
his administration. Respectfully,
(Signcd) STANLEY MATTHEWS,
CHARLES FOSTER.
in connection with the foregoing let
ters, the following memorandum is given
as an outgrowth Of the previous under
standing:
WASHINGTON, Feb. 81, 1877.
In an interview with the President this
morning. in the course of O conversation
on the subject Of Louisiana affairs, he
stated to me that Us soon as the Presiden-
tial count was finished and the, result
officially declared, it was his intention to
notify General Auger by telegraph that
the existing military orders Issued for
preserving the status IL, quo of the politi-
cal situation were rescinded except so far
as simply to require the use of troops
when, necessary to the preservation Of
the public peace. He authorizes me to
communicate this declaration Ito Mr..
Ellis, of the Louisiana delegation.

JUDGE NoRTHRoP DECLARES FOR
HAMproS.--The Washington National
Republican publishes an interesting inter
view with Hon. L. G. Northrop, presiding
Judge of the Seventh Circuit of South
Carolina, and introduces the interview as
follows:
"The Judge is native born South
Carc!inian, being descendant of one
of the Oldest families in the State.
When the late war took place, Judge
Northrop, his father and his brother all
enlisted on the Confederate side. His
father and brother were killed, and he
survived, to afterwards become Repub-
llcan and firm supporter of Governor
Chamberlain"
Alter paying a high compliment to the
manhood and integrity of Chamberlain,
Judge Northrop proceeds to describe the
situation. The Democrats believe as they
do in their existence that Hampton re-
ceived over 1000 majority of the votes.
aud is lawfully elected Governor. They
claim that it has been decided in their
favor by the courts, and they would eager
" defend it by the last dollar and the last
life: l have never seen such profound
excitement and infieXible resolution as
exists throughout my section. It is in
every fibre of the atmosphere, and must
be felt to be understood. 1t is kind
with the frenzy that possessed the people
Of Paris in 1893. It has been waiting
like q chained tiger on the first moye-
msnt of Hampton's finger or lips. IF
that movement had been made, the whole
army Of the United States would have
had business ON It's hands. Further on
he says: II am Republican, every
inch of me, and q Carolinian, overy inch
e me, and ] don't want to see the State
pass into ihe hands of the Democracy,
but l don't want to see it go to the devil,
either"
Reporter-Well, if Hampton becomes
Governor, would peace follow9
Judge Northrop-Yes, sir; it would
most undoubtedly, and with that peace
would come ample protection to all the
people alike, and property would at once
become enhanced in value full % per
cent. =

WAsHIHGToN, April /, 1877.
In reference to the withdrawal of the
troops from South Carolina, it can bo au-
thoritatively stated that President Hayes
is decidly opposed to leaving garrisons of
Federal troops in the State House OF t'any
State, but he holds to the theory that
troops may be stationed In the vicinity OF
any place where difficulty is liable to
occur, and in case Of violence or riot they
may be called upon to preserve the peace.
The former he regards Us purely politi-
cal move, without warrant of cohstitu-
tional provision, while tho latter isPa
legitimate governmental power, and can
DO as appropriately exercised in Soilth
Carolina rs 1t is in the various other
States whefe gaErieons are now stationed.

COTTON SLOV.NS.

When a COW has given its bolntiful
supply of rich milk, what can be more
veXatious than to see her lift up her heel,
upset the bucket, and spill the frothing,
creamy fluid upon the ground9 Such an
incident is excessively mortifying; but
tho culprt is creature without reason
or discretion, who has no consciousness
of the intense folly of pouring abroad so
recllessly what had been rendered SO
generously. If q man performed o SIM
ilal deed, what epithet could be found
too bitter and too harsh to describe his
besottted folly? Yet there are men, and
in this part Of the Union, just as-wolI,
the reader can say what. We had I: proof
of this the other day, when one Of our
principal cotton-brol<ers called us into
his Office, and there displayed before us
the result of an exploration into the con-
tents Of ten bales ofcotton. Exposed he
cotton, several bushels of refuse material.
principally splinters, and chips, and little
solid "chunks" OF wood; also, dirt and rub
bsh, such rs will accumulate about a gin
hausc floor, We're in paofusion. All these
Substances being light, they had evil
IDENTIFY been packed among the cotton in
mere carelessnecs, more want of sense to
do better, but some heavy pieces Of iron,
that had been packed among the cotton
with the peecious material, possibly
| owed their presence there to some con-
| nection between the weight of Il heavy
| substance and Il valuable urn for it at
the same price per pound as cotton.-
There were also many bent and broken
nails, some bearing marks made by the
machinery of tho gin. Their presence
was another proof Of tho stupidity of the
| reckless packer, for their contact with
| that machinery caused serious danger of
| destruction by. fire. What must we think
ola man who, without one shielding aoom
| OF the cows excuse, acts as carclcssly as
| the COW? ? He has cleaned the ground,
! plowed, narrowed, planted, tended, watch
ed and toilcd, III heat and coldand storm;
| the beautiful tlcccy staple is the return,
! and he has not respect enough for the
product of his own labor to treat 1t de-
| Gently. He sends it to market, to be seen
by others eyes and condemned or COM
| menucd by other Judgments, and he sends
| it mingled with filth and refuse. He
wantt the highest price for it from others
yet he shows that he dcspiscc it himself.
| a workman that takes no pride in wnat
his own toll, and care, and skill has pro-
duced, must have &: mean soul indeed.
1t is the duty, as well as the interest, of
the agriculturst to put his products on
the market in the best and prettiest pos
sible style, and with an article as beauti-
full naturally as cotton is, tho duty is
