WAS IT A BARGAIN?

Ex-President John Quincy Adams WIS
elected, hy the House Of Representatives,
President of the United States over Cen
eral jackson by one vote, aud the distin-
guished Henry Clay gave the casting
vote. Mr.. Adams appointed mir. Oiay
S,cretary of State, and the country which
was watchful of official integrity at that
time raised the cry Of bargain and sale,
which, although without any foundation,
cast suspicion upon these two men
which caused the defeat OF Adams Mt the
next election and bore heavily upon Mr..
Clays political fortunes for the remainder
of his life. President Hayes has just ap-
pointed Mr.. Evarts his Secretary of State,
and the conspicuous and astonishing
position taken by him as counsel for the
Republicans before the Electoral Com
mission justly arouses the inquiry in the
minds of our people: Was it bargain
and sale? Did Dir. Evarts render his
professional services and receive as pay
ment therefor the position of Secretary of
State? Fifty years ago such proceed
ing would have disgusted every American
patriot. 1t was thought highly improper
Tor Dir. Clay TO accept Inc position from
President for whom he had voted as a
member of the House where he was com.
PEELED TO vote for one of two men; but
what would the nation have said If man
like Eyarts had rendered professional
services, voluntarily, to secure the nau-
guration Of President against the known
wishes of the people, and had received as
payment for those services position in
the Cabinet Of The fraudulent President.
1t would have destroyed the confidence
of the people in both of the men, and If
it does not consign both President Hayes
and Mr.. Evarts to political obscurity in
the future, it will only show that our
people have become SO intimately ac.
quainted with fraud and corruption that
they have lost their original Jealousy of
the actions Of their official servants. IF
the people Of the Union allow men 10 re-
celve thcr confidence and retain their
sna.ages when they act in 80 questiona-
bic q manner, then there is need to
fear for the safety Of the republic Mr..
Evarts has not accepted the position
which he has obtained for the salary of
the Office, for his income as an attorney
was much larger. He has not accepted
it for its prominence, for rs distin-
guished and honorable lawyer he was rs
well known and more highly respected
than he can be rs Secretary of State
under fraudulent President. He has
taken the position for the purpose of
future preferment, and tue country
should watch closely the man who would
intrigue so cunningly for political pro-
motion.

-. It In Rtnted rs matter of much i'm.
portance that Mrs. Hayes favorite color
Is light blue, and that consequently the
White House is to be furnished in tha.
color.
- The announcement of the appoint
mens of ex-senator Key, TO the position
of Postmaster-G General, was received in
Memphis and Nashville with great salts
faction by all parties, as indicating a con-
servative policy.
- President Grant has announced his
intention nf sning abroad in Nav but
he will not, assis asserted, be the first Ex4
President of the United States who has
visited Europe. Millard Fillmore in 1867
spent several months in England and on
the Continent. 0
- The attempt to reduce the Presi-
dents salary to $25, 600 was failure, and
Hayes will receive $5G, 900 per year while
ne is President, einco the law prohibits
She reduction of the pay OF tse office,
which shall affect the compensation OF
the present Incumbent.
~ Pinchback, in conversation with q
correspondent of the Baltimore Sun,
stated in the most positive manner tkal
Packard cannot maintain his government,
and it win Inevitably fall to pieces. He
says chat It ia falsehood out Of the
whole cloth for Packard TO say that any
taxes are paid to him, and he says that
Packard's government cannot go in the
market and raise ten dollars.

THE SUPREME COURT.

We observe that nominations are being
made, not only for the present vacancy
in the Supreme Court, caused by the
death of Chief Justice Moses, but also
for Associate Justices to make up the full
bench. In another article we have given
expression to our views o. to the fitness
and ability of Mr.. Justice Willard to
supply the vacancy already created, and
!. Ia with diffidence that we venture to
suggest gentleman for the position of
Associate Justice, in the event an elec-
ton for that Office will devolye upon the
Legislature when it re-assembles. We
refer to Col. A. G. Haskell, of Columbia,
who is justly popular as citizen, and
whose legal attainments are such as to
qualify him in an eminent degree for the
position. 1t is true that Col. Haskell is
comparatively young man, and yet he
vas selected ten years ago by the late
Governor Orr for the responsible and
arduons duties of Law Professor in the
South Carolina University. He has
since that time shared a considerable
practice in the legal profession, and is
thoroughly devoted to his chosen pursuit
in life. We do not know that Col.
Haskell will consent to allow the Use of
his name in this connection, as he reso-
lutely declined to enter the field for
United States Senator this winter, when
it was urged upon him to become q can.
didatc for that position. But the people
of the State recognize his merit and en-
pacity, and will gladly welcome his en-
trance into the public service. AS Chair
man Of the State Democratic Committee,
he made reputation in the last cam
paign for sagacity, prudence and dctcrmi-
nation unequalled by any man of his age,
and his STEADY devotion to the cause of
good government justly endears him to
the people he served so nobly in every
emergency. 1t would be fitting tribute
to his worth and services, if the occasion
presents itself, for the representatives of
the people to elevate Col. Haskell to an
honorable position on the bench, which
would be adorned by his learning, ability
and industry.

The suggested withdrawal "for the pub
lie good" which was made to Mr.. Cham
berlain few days ago seems to have met
the appreciation of President Hayes,
whose character for indirectness grows
more apparent in this transaction. In
its bearing upon the ultimate res nit IN
South Carolina, We do not consider it a
matter of great Importance. But the
frat official act OF iir. Hayes, whic;.
affects the future welfare Of the State,
was the nomination Of Maj. William
Stone for the Office of District Attorney
for South Carolina. Unmindful of the
fact that Senator Robertson procured the
defeat of this identical nomination, when
it was made by President Grant few
days before, mar. Hayes sends III the
name of Maj. Stone for this important
Office to the United States Senate. Stone
Is brother-in-law and partner of Corbin,
who has filled the Office of District At
tornoy during the reign of the carpet
baggers in South Carolina. Stone is o
plant tool of Corbin, and his nomination
only indicates the perpetuation of the
c4rpet-bag dynasty in this State. Empty
words and glittering premises count for
nuughtt TiieTi viewed l.. The iigh. ef roei-
tive action, and this nomination reveals
the purposes Of President Hayes more
clearly than all his sweetcned phrases
about local selfgovernment.

This closed the interview, your corres-
pondcnt sparing the Governor the humil-
iation Of an answer 70 the next queet,ou
that suggested itself, III follows: "In the
event or your recognition, nun 10 you
propose to maintain your government in
the State?"
Ttis pity that the CORES ,ondent was
so .tenderly careful in regard TO the feel
ings of Mr.. Chamberlain, for it would be
quite interesting to know the programme
depended upon by the Ex-Governor, in
the improbable contingency that he is
sustained in his unlawful and revolu-
tionary pretensions by the Federal gov.
errment
A more cheerful and hopeful view Of
the situation il contained in the follow
ing dispatches to the Charleston Journal Of
Commerce, whcse correspondent speaks
in the most positive terms us to the pur-
poses of Mr. Hayes:
WASHINGTON, March 8.
Before taking final action in the matter
of the withdrawal Of the Federal forces
from Columbia and New Orleans, and
prohibiting their further use at those
points, except to sustain the State off.
cials in preserving the peace, the Presi-
dent has decided to give Messrs. Cham
.isses;a!n end Packard an opportunity to
voluntarily retire from the positions
which they cannot possibly maintain.
Unmistakable intimations have been
conveyed TO both these gentlemen Of the
Presidents purposes. If after l. reason
able lapse Of time it is found that these
gentlemen are determined TO attempt to
maintain their positions, orders viii be
issued to Generals Ruger and Augur,
directing them to withdraw the Federal
troops in the departments of the South
and of the Gulf, to the military reserva-
tions; thus leaving it to the people OF
South Carolina and Louisiana to decide
for themselves which of the dual govern
ments they will sustain. If either Pack
ard or Chamberlain entertain the belief
that any Senator or combination of Sena-
tors, can prevent the President from
inaugurating and carrying out the policy
enunciated in his letter of acceptance
and in his inaugural address, they are
doomed to serious disappointment, and
this they will realize within few days.
WAsHINGTON, March IL.
Information received here to-day indi-
Gates that Mr.. Chamberlain has about
made up his mind to resign all preten-
sions to gubernatorial honors in South
Carolina. It is stated by his friends that,
in taking this step, he isiniiuenced solely
by desire to benefit the country gener-
ally, and to remove, in 80 far as he can,
| all obstacles in the way Of favorable
Inauguration Of President Hayes South
ern policy in South Carolina. If he can
be induced to accept, it is understood
that Mr.. Chamberlain will be properly
provided for elsewhere. Mr.. Chamber
lain will probably accept.
