THE CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL F
AuGusrA Ga, March 6-The Augusta
Chronicle and Sentinel says of the inaug-
ural: "If President Hayes sticks to the spirit
of his speech he will do much towards les
sening the disappointment which the south
felt when the judgment of the electoral
commission was pronounced. Altogether 1t
is manly, moderate, and statesmanlike adj
dress"
THE CHARLESTON JOURNAL.
The Charleston Journal of Commerce says
I'VE will say that the inaugural address is
well written, fair spoken and on the whole a
judicious paper. The general tenor of the
sentiments and policy, so far as the south is
concerned, are liberal and conservative"
THE COLUMBIA REGISTER.
The Columbia register says "The inau.
gural address of the new president will COM
mand the attention of the country, and in
its utterances and spirit meet with general
concurrence and sympathetic response"
o. THE NEWS AND COURIER. m
CHARLESTON, 8. c., March 6.-The News
and Courier says: 1.-THE inaugural address
of President Hayes is somewhat disappoint-
ing. 1t abounds in sentiments which will
receive the hearty approval OF the country,
and its tone is unexceptionable. Yet
il is not in any regard the message that
was looked for. The colored people
az. secure in their rights so the whites,
except in Carolina and Louisiana. What is
needed now is not any exercise of power by
the executive department of the general
government, but the arresting of any fur
Their interference by that government with
the domestic affairs of the states. We rec
ognize the kindliness of the presidents
words and we do not question his motives.
d. - Il. II H. A..
announcing that the states within the law
must manage their own affairs in their own
wey, and that the general government
would attempt no other supervision in South
Carolina and Louisiana than is the rule in
Ohio or Connecticut, would have been more
to the south and better for the country than
the oratorical generalities which, according
to the glasses through which we see, mean
everything or nothing. We know that it is
the settled purpose of the majority of white
and colored citizens of South Carolina to
have the Hampton government or military
rule. The whole army of the United States
can not make effectual the pretended au-
thority of the loathsome crew vhom the
people have formally and publicly cast off
forever. The address as whole is not
positive or decisive. Its utteran ;es
what the south needs but are reconciliable
with the atrocious policy which has brought
two southern states at least to the verge of a
revolution. We shall only be able TO know
what President Hayes really means when
we see what he actually does. In the mean
time it is safe and comfortable to hope for
the best"
THE WORLD.
New YORK, March 6-The World says of
the inaugural: ''The tone throughout is that
of sermon, or of the political summary in
smonthly magazine, rather than statesman
like exposition OF political principles and
purposes. In regard to the policy
to be pursued towards the southern
states not one word is said which cannot be
twisted as easily to countenance the actions
Of President Grant towards Louisiana two
years ago as to indorse the words of Presi-
dent Grant about louisiana two days ago."
