Georgia Invites the President to Visit
the South.

The proposed visit Of the President
to the South Is Il topic which the South
ern papers are now discussing in an
exceedingly kind temper. We give
the following from the Augusta, Ca,
Chronicle and Constit,ti0nalif as a
specimen:
In all parts Of the South influential
men are expressing Il desire to have
the President visit that section. 1t Is
well known that Mr.. Hayes has deep
interest, not only in the political vel
fare Of the South, but likewise in the
development Of the material resources
Of that region. Many Southern gen
tlemen have expressed themselves as
highly pleased with the thorough
knowledge which the President pos
scsses Of the capabilities Of that sec
ton Of the country, and Of the prac-
teal measures which are needed to
develop them. Hence their anxiety
to have him visit the South and min
gle freely with all classes of citizens.
By all means, Mr. Hayes should come
to the South.
1t has been ut least twenty wears
since a President Of the United States
has set foot in this country south of
the Potomac. We believe that good
would come of such visit. Mr..
Lamar, in the famous eulogy on Sum
ner. which he pronounced in the House
~of Representatives, uttered a great
truth when, speaking Of the North and
South, he said, My comtrymen, let
us know one another and we will love
one another Ignorance Is the mother
of prejudice. Where we know we
love; where we are ignorant We hate.
The Georgians and CurOlinians who
went to Boston two years ago believed
when they went that Boston was
the natural and vindictive enemy of
everything Southern; they came home
knowing Boston was the friend Of the
South; that her people were cultured,
hOSpitablc and refined; that the Boston
soldiers who fought lis so gallGntly
when there was war between the sec
tons were foremost in proffcrs of hos
pitality and kindness when peace fol-
lowed the carnage Of battle. SO, too,
we have good reason for thinking that
Northern gentlemen who have visited
the South since the war have had no
reason to complain Of their reception.
We desire the President to come
among us in order that he may meet,
not the politicians, not the place
hunter, not the officc-holders, but the
people Of the South Such a meeting
cannot fail to be. Of benefit to the
South and to Mr.. Hayes. The Presi-
dent viii see a people whom he only
knows through Northern presses and
few public men; the people Of the
South will see President against
whom they cast solid vote at~the
polls, but who since his Inauguration
has shown himself a wise and polite
ruler, a just and generous man. We
promise Il cordial welcome. Let him
travel from Washington to New Or
leans and see the country and the poo
pie Of the South.

Gangrened Zealots of Both Parties.

The Texas Stateman Dem The
diseased, gangrcned zealots Of both par
ties hate the President, and only pa
triots and conservative people are his
adherents The only Radicals in the
South, cooperating seaiouSly with
those Of Iowa and New Hampshire
and Vermont, and those who refuse to
do justice to the President and adhere
TO the bondholders Let it not be for
gotten that the Radicals North and
South, whether Of the Governor Davis
or the Mills faction; whether Of Iowa
or Vermont or Texas, are an unit in
purpose and alike hostile to the liberal
and just and wise administration OF

Governor Hartranft on the Presidents
Policy.
Philadelphia Timcs.l

"You would think Hayes policy was
a failure if you were to talk with many
Of the politicians, said the Governor,
"but if on the other hand you 90
among the people they talk very diff
ferently, and think it Is a success. 1t
seems to be popular with the people,
as far as 1 have seen, everywhere.
Iasked the Governor what he thought
about it, and said that it seemed to me
an inevitable policy.

what else the President could have
done From my position, as Il State
Governor, | felt the extreme deiicacv
Of keeping up the example Of the
Federal Executive interfering in the
local affairs Of Il State SURPRISING
domestic violence was one thing, but
using the Federal bayonet to carry out
the edicts of local State Judges was
another thing. Our own safety was
ieopardized in the example We were
commencing. Therefore | think that
Hayes, however bold and unpopuIarin
party sense, or rather in a political
sense, took the logical course in return
ing Louisiana and South Carolina to
their own rule. If they misbehave
now, with the eyes of the country upon
them, they can be held to an account

Presidency is contingent on the be
havior Of the South to their blacks.
| hope that the South will deserve
President Hayes confidence in them.

1 Virginia Belle.
from Scribner Of JuIyI.

The ''Powhatan estate" was for two
hundred years the property ofthe Afavo
family, and here, as the story goes,
John Howard Payne fell madlv in
love, when in Richmond, with Miss
Maria Mayo (afterward Mrs. General
Winfield Scott3, Il famous Richmond
belle in her day, and remarkable for
her Wit and intelligence, as well as for
her extraordinary beauty. Poor PAYNE
laid has heart at her feet, but she Is
said to have toyed and coquetted with
it, and then to have flung it aside.
When all hope winning the fair prize
was abandoned, PAYNE went to Europe,
where he remained for nearly twenty
years, and where he wrote his Home.
Sweet Home" which was first SUMO in
his opera Of Glare" at London. This
traditional incident in the life Of PAYNE
revivcs another (and one still current
in Richmond connected with General
Scott. 1t is said that when he firytad-
dressed Miss Mayo, he was only = cap
tain in the regular army, and his suit
was summarily dismissed. Afterward,
when Il major, he renewed the proffer
OF his hand, but with no better SUCCESS.
The third time he wore the epaulet< OF
q general and these promptly secured
his acceptance. When asked bv one
Of her friends why she had thus sud
denly changed her mind, Miss MAYO is
said to have replied: ''In my estima-
ton, thGrc j. Il very decided difference
between Il captain, or even Il major,
and a general in the American army. 3"
Sensational, but Probable.

The Revenue CT the Last Fiscal Year.
June 80 wound up the fiscal year Of
the government. The receipts for Gus
toms viii be about $40. OO0, 900, while
the receipts for internal revenue will
be S119, 100000. The former exceed
about s., 600, 900, while the latter IS
about 81, 10000 less than the est
mates. After the sinking fund Is paid

seven and eight millions surplus of re-
ceipts over expenditures for this fiscal
year.
We have it from Republican sources
Of information that the roll Of the

in California and one in Colorado, one
vacancy Is leftin Florida, twoin LouiSi-

Modern political philosophy asserts the
doctrine, "To the victors belong the

Nearly every district, county, state
and national convention is managed by
the oflicc-holding class or by machine
politicians The result has been that
the entire machinery Of government
has been proStitutcd to the selfshness
of scheming politicians. Offices and
honors parccllcd out in payment for
services rendered. Mr.. Hayes has re-
Gently issued an order which check

are removed beyond the reach of the
politicians manipulations and shall be
filled by men of undouItad worth, re

ple will have established a regime
which will conduce to the peace and
