has referred recently to the danger that bad Of
both parties may make trouble, in conversation
with gentlemen who have called upon him; but he
relies on the influence of the best men in both par
ties to prevent trouble, and upon Gov. Hamptons
ability to restrain the white people, even under the
greatest provocaton.
Some of the Presidents friends think that by the
manner in which he met Gov. Hampton and dis
cussed with him the Southern question, he has &C.
cured Hampton's future support. OF course there
is no truth in the absurd report printed day ortwO
ago that Hampton has agreed to assist the President
In organizing the House of Representatives, with
Gen. Garfield as Speaker. 1t may be, however, that
Hampton, as a Southern man, without coming him
self to support of the Administration, except in
gard to such measures he may approve, may
nevertheless his influence support of the Pres
ident in making his Southern policy success, and
he probably will if it should be placed in jeopardy
by the opposition of the radical wing of the Repub
lican party.
If such an occasion should arise, not only IIamp-
ton but other Southern Democrats looking to the
interests of their people alone and displaying
more worldly wisdom than they showed on many
occasions during the late session of Congress when
they took stand against the Northern Bourbons Of
their own party, may feel bound to take sides with
the President

cARouNA-oRDERs FOR REMOVING THK TROOPS
THE PRESIDENTS DESIRE AS TO LOUISIANA.
Orders were issued yesterday by President
HAYES for the evacuation of the South Carolina
State House by the United States troops.
Wade Hampton has given the President writ
ten assurances that there shall be no violence
in the State, in consequence of this order, and he
hedges himself to the equal rights of oil citizens
black and white. Senator Patterson declares
that he shall vote to seat NJ. c. Butler in the
Senate in retaliation upon the Administration.
The letter of instructions to the Louisiana
Commission is published to-day. 1t shows the
Presidents desire to be the formation of a
single Legislature at New-Orleans, and to oh
,ain a knowledge of the exact feeling of the
people of that State.

THE oUO WARRANTO GOSSIP.


SOMETHING CONTEMPLATED BUT NOTHING DONE
AND NOTHING PROBABLY TO BE DONE.
fBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIDUEEl
WASHINGTON April 3.-The gossips have had
great deal to say within the past few days about
quo waranto proceedings TO he instituted in behalf
of Gov. Tiden for the purpose OF determining fres
dent Hayes's title to his Office 1t Is certain
that no such proceedings have been begun
in the conrts of this city, although u
is almost equally certain that something
of the kind has been contemplated. Richard l.
Merrick, who was employed as one OF Gov. Tilden's
attorneys before the Electoral Commission and who
has been reported to have the papers IN his posses
sion has positively denied this report and has GER
tainly taken no steps in the matter. IL has also
been reported that the proceedings, though contem-
plated, would be postponed until after the United
States troops have been withdrawn from the sup
mort of Chamberlain and Packard in South Carolina
and Louisiana.
The theory is that if Hampton and Nichols are
recognized as Governors of those two States, the
recognition would also throw cloud over PRESIDENT
Hayes's title to the Presidency. This idea is I'M
doubtedly just the of the truth. The recog
milton by the present Administration of the Demo-
cratic claimants in the two disputed States or rather
the refusal to support the Republicans with the army
will probably be 80 satisfactory to Gov. Tildcns
political friends that no steps to dispossess Pres-
dent Hayes after that will be taken. No pro-
ceedngs of this kind may therefore be expected I'M
til after the report of the Louisiana Commission
and the action of the Administration upon it, and
none then if Nichols succeeds in asserting his
authority as Governor Of Louisiana.

VOWS TO JOIN lHE OPPOSITION IN CONGRESS
DANGER OF SOUTHERN DISTURBANCES.
lBY TELEGRAPH THB TRIBuSE
WASHINGTON, April 3.-SenatOr Patterson oil
South Carolina is reported to have said yesterday,
after hearing of the vote of the Cabinet in the
South Carolina case that he should vote for the al
mission Of ~ C.. Butler 10 the United States SEN
ate, and that other Southern Republicans would
not only do the same, but would support
Democratic measures in Congress. The rea-
son he is said to have assigned was
that if the Administration thought that Democratic
rule good enough for the people of South Caro-
Ena he wanted it 10 have taste of the same IN
National affairs and how it likes 1T there. OF
course there may be grea; change in the sentiment
of the Southern Republicans in Congress before the
June session; but there strong indications
that if there not there will be break among the
earpet-baggers against the Administration. They
will hesitate at nothing which in their opinion will
weaken the President or tend to break down his
policy.
The greatest danger is that they will attempt TO
create disturbances in South Carolina and Louisiana
between this time and the meeting of Congress, in
order to bring the Presidents Southern policy into
dsrepute, and thus lay the foundation Tor more
vigorous warfare against 1t IN the extra session.
This they may possibly do. Outrages by the score
were invented in Alabama in 1874. and there are AS
bad men III South Carolina to-day as there ever have
been in the Gulf States. Gov. Chamberlain will not
countenance anything of the kind, bat there are
other men who may, and they would consider
victory over the Presidents policy as cheaply
bought at the expense Of the lives of few negroes
The President apparently comprehends this, Tor no
