WASHINGTON, March 6. - President
Hayes inaugural gives remarkably gen.
eral satisfaction. The feeling of South
ern men ia especially gratiied by its con.
sentative tone and its unmistakable in
timation that carpet-haRgers can expect
little or no favorable consideration from
the new Administration. They are also
greatly pleased with Hayes declaration
that the material developments of the
South now deserve considerable care of
the National Government within the just
limits presented by the Constitution and
wise public economy. This is construed
as q Representation of Executive sup
port for Federal assistance to build the
Texas Pacific railway and to construct
the Mississippi levee. The assured ap.
pointment of Key to be Postmaster Gen.
| eral is very highly commended as a wise
recognition OF the desirability of winning
| over to the Republican party the large
and influential old line Wing element OF
the South, which coalesced with the
Democrats as the only available means
OF preventing the permanent establish
ment of negro rule and carpet baggers.
| The Governments appointment of
u Southern man like Key to the Cabinet,
together with the conservative inter.
ances of the inaugural, will it is be.
lieved. have an immediate and very pow
erful influence in securing desirable &C.
cessons to the Republican party in the
South and greatly hasten the subsistence
of the excited state OF feeling among the
Democrats throughout the entire country.
New YORK, March 6.-The Herald's
Washington special says: The inaugural
message was printed almost as soon as it
was spoken and was read with the great
est interest, but with very diverse feeling
by different classes of politicians. The
best men of both parties, those who
really desire the country to have rest
and peace and good government. ap-
proved it highly. They said it was
frank, straightforward document and
read like the utterancs of sincere and
honest man. What the President says
about the Southern question satisfied
the best classes OF Southern Democrats
and all of both parties who desired a
settlement Of the Southern difficulties.
Average Republican politicians received
the message rather coldly. As to what
was said about civil service reform they
smile and say, very easy 10 talk. buG
the President will see by -and.by." But
even they are not inclined to oppose him
in what they think to be his notions on
this subject. He will have to ask advice
of congressman, they say, in filling va
cancies, which are always occurring. A
member Of Congress after all knows
more about the people of his district
than any one else and is the best one to
make responsible. 1t would be good
thing, these men say, to break down
Senatorial patronage which they think has
become an abuse, but after all they think
the President will soon find out what
is practicable. and there will be no such
great change. Carpet baRgers are in a
dolorous mood. as are the Cameron men,
who threaten vengeance.
NASHVILLE, March 6.-The American
Leader, the Democratic organ, says
Elk Senator Key, of Tennessee, will
probably be appointed Postmaster Gen.
eral. This is departure from the gen
eral custom and would seem to indicate
that Hayes means what he says about
bipartisan civil service. Key has never
been anything but a Democrat, is a ID ar
> of ability and thoroughly honest. Hi,
, appointment is good indication anG
one which will be likely to make ex
, tremists howl, while every man who
seeks the prosperity of our country mus
! rejoice at this indication as far as it goes
The Herald's Richmond (Va.) specia
says: The inaugural address is regarded
8 as kindly promising everything whicl
Southerners have q right to expect.

did not interfere between the two go,
