| PRhblDKNTb SOUTHERN POLICY.
The South Corollna republicans appeal
jubilant at the fact that Chamberlain ant
Hampton are to argue their cases before thu
president and his cabinet, although the rea
sons for this hopefulness are not apparent
II secures for them delay, but 1t is not tc
be a delay that will be long continued, fol
1t is the determination OF the president to
force prompt decision; indeed, those who
know the presidents intentions declare that
delay az to the final action In both the
South Carolina and Louisiana cases by no
means indicates an abandonment of the
southern policy as originally announced, or
the adoption of a policy of temporizstion.
President Hayes within two days has de-
clarod with emphasis that the state govern
ments In the south must be, under his ad-
ministration,
ALL MILITARY OR ALL OWL.
His declaration as to this feature OF his
policy is intended to be as prophetic as that
other noted declaration; That the union
cannot endure permanently half-slave and
half-free. Senator Patterson of South
Carolina is quite hopeful of the situation
now, as viewed from his side. He says
that Chamberlain is one of the most able
and brilliant men in the whole country, the
peer Of any one in or out of the cabinet,
and that he will make such powerful pre-
sentstion of his case as will be sure to &C.
cure his success. Patterson scouts the idea
that the people of South Carolina will re-
sist IL Chamberlain obtains federal recogni-
ton. He says that one corporal with the
United States flag would be sufficient to
command implicit obedience, and that he
would not be afraid to 60 in the midst of
10000 red-shirted members of the clubs
with no more protection.
MAKING UP THE COMMISSION.
President Wheeler telegraphed to the
president that he could not 60 on the CON-
mission. The president replied that be
could not we'll excuse him, and Mr..
Wheeler answered that he would start for
VoehibStou at ouCc' luuilOW Wecu ut-
clined, but recommended Gov. Bullock of
Massachusetts. President Woolsey of
Yale has been rendered place, as has
Morton McMichael of Pennsylvania.
VIEWS OF SOUTHERN MEN.
Senator Gordon and Gen. NJ. G. Butler
both express their opposition to the project
of Hampton coming TO Washington. Gen.
Butler telegrsphed the letter to Hampton,
who replied that he had not yet received it
officially from the president. Judge
Mackey is not displeased with the idea,
and thinks Hampton will come. Gen.
Butler and Judge Mackey called on the
President. Gen. Butler said he had called
to say goodbye, as he was going home.
The president said that he hoped to see
Hampton very soon in Washington. Gen.
Butler made no reply 10 this, but Judge
Mackey said, az am sure he will come
when he receives official invitation" The
two gentlemen then left the White house
and called on Secretary Thompson. Judge
Mackcy said, at has been suggested by
leading democrats here that Gov. Hamp-
ton has been invited to engage in a discuss
ion before the president in regard to his
title to the office Of governor. AS he holds
that his title is unquestionable, the court,
having fully decided In his favor, he can
not make this matter subject of con-
troversy." Secretary Thompson replied,
"Not at all. Hampton Is invited here not
to discussion OF his title, but to con-
ference with the president" Gen. Butler
left here at 1870 o'clock a. M, Saturday
morning, and will arrive in Columbia OIL
Sunday and confer with Gov. Hampton
before the latter leaves for Washington, il
he comes at all. Senator Patterson re-
ceived telegram from Chamberlain that
he would come to Washington as soon as
ne received the official letter from the
president.
THE PRESIDENT SAID TO BE MISUNDERSTOOD.
The president, with some warmth, said
to prominent republican senator who call
ed on him that the south had misunder-
stood him. He had never said he would
withdraw tho troops, and had never author
lied any one to say so for him. He said
that he proposed TO do what in his best
judgment he thought was right, and he did
net expect to please every one.
TELEGRAMs FROM SOUTH CAROLINA.
The following dispatch has been received
from a democratic source at Charleston,
s. c.; "The feeling is general here tina,
Gov. Hampton ought not to 60 to Wash
ington at the bidding of President Hayes
That his right and duty to hold the office
to which majority of the people electes
him are matters over which the federal ad-
minIstration can exercise no justifiable
control, and that President Hayes mus,
make his choice. between fulfilling his
pledge to restore self-government, peace
and prosperity to South Carolina by the
cessation of military interference In her
affairs or else establish at once military
government throughout the state. Any
kind of compromise ia regarded as dishon-
oraole and rulnous and may be set down
as out of the question" kilograms from
Columbia represent the same feeling pre-
vailing there. Gov. Hampton declines TO
express himself before receiving the presi-
dents letter officially, but it is considered
certain that he will decline the invitation
to Warrington. The News and Courier
will strongly urge him to remain at his
post Chamberlain expresses himself at
pleased at the presidents letter.
WILL RESIGN.
