KEY AND THE SOUTH.
A Suggestive Letter From the
Postm master General

A Suggestive Letter From the
Postmaster General
The Chattanooga Times published the
following letter from Postmaster General
Key to his brother:
Very little is doing in regard to South
ern appointments. presume the Presi
dent is feeling his way as to these. BE
desires to be as liberal toward the South
ern people as he dare. The President
Southern policy-his action as to South
Carolina and Louisiana-has arrayed
against him Blaine, Wade, Wendell
Phillips, the carpet-baggers and other
blcodY-shirt Republicans. The Demo-
Gratis have majority in the House, and
this detection may give an opposition
majority in the Senate. To give the
President the power to carry out his
Southern policy it is important that he
have majority in both Houses favorable
to his administration.
Whether he shall have this majority
depends on the Southern Democrats If
they oppose the Administration, elect a
Northern Democrat, such as Randall OF
Sayler, to the Speakership, and ally
themselves with disaGfected Republicans
to fight the Administration, he viii be
compelled to use his official patronage
in such a way as to give HIM strength 10
his own party; should Southern Demos
Gratis wisely extend him support, he
will be able to deal his patrena ge to
them literally, and revolutionize the
system of Federal patronage which has
existed in the South since the war
Southern Democrats now have the power
to redeem the South, if they see proper
to use it
The President is firm and determined
in his Southern policy, if the South will
give him the support necessary to carry
it out II my opinion the true method
fer tho democratic party il. ia South to
protect Itself, and maiataiaS success.
fol organization, is for that party to de-
clare in favor of Mr. Hayes administra-
ton, not as Republicans, but as Dcmo~
Gratis, upon his Southern policy. If the
Presidents Southern policy fails, the
Southern Democratic party will be to
blame for it; the people will know it and
hold it responsible

GEN. WHITTHORNE OH a RAM
PAGE.

The late speech Of this gentle
man at Franklin was along and
caustic arraignment of President
Hayes because of the alleged
Electoral Commission fraud, in
terspersed with a vindication Of
his opposition to the decision of
that tribunal. 1t is in order for
Mr.. Whitthorne and every pub
lie man to go upon record and
to stake out his political history
by well-defned metes and
bounds, but it is out of taste for
a statesman Of his girth to thrust
himself before the people and
attempt to heat back the in
coming of an era Of national
reconciliation. He will find that
his opposition at this juncture is
but wall of sand before the
strong current of re-awakened
public sentiment now sweeping
over the country. Several Ten
nessee journals are champion
ing, in advance, his claims for
gubernatorial honors. If the
spirit Of that Franklin speech is
to be his guiding star in the flu
ture, he will encounter rough
weather before he casts anchor
within theState mansion atNash-
vile. The Admiral's naval eX-
PLOTS were brilliant but when
he endeavors to choke off Presi-
dent Hayes in his pacific course
he may find that the people will
spike his guns. His observation
should teach him that so sure as
there is a thermal flow of waters
sweeping along the Southern
coast, so certain is there in
the Southern heart a genial
Gulf Stream silently moving
Northward to melt the icy bar
riers Of sectional prejudice. As
an expert sailor upon the sea OF
political ambition he should
seek to get within the reach and
be borne upon the bosom Of this
safe tide in public sentiment.
If otherwise desiring, let him go
by his chart. a rocky reef viii
bilge his bottom.

GoRDON, Lamar and other
Southern Congressman are NOV
ing to have Congress remove all
duty on cotton-milI machinery,
so as to encourage English man
ufacturers and capitalists to seek
investments in the South. This
is more like business, more in
accord with real craftsmanship
than to be continually stirring
the dirty pool Of politics. Go
on, gentlemen, you are now on
the right trail.
