The people of the United States cannot he too
thankful that they have in the Presidential chair
an eminent statesman, who has succeeded in pac-
flying the country, although, by his own decis-
ion, he occupies the position through fraud. 1t
is cheering reflection that paciication exists rs
eouplstely as it did in the haloyon days of 1860.
when Yankee school l-mistresses were tarred and
feathered because they were not born in the
South, There is peace in the South, because the
patriot and statesman, Hayes, has removed all
obstacles to numbering men for opinions sake,
and but one political sentiment is allowed to be
expressed. Let us see what are some of the
beauties resulting from the act of the noble
statesman in binding and delivering the Repub-
licans of the South into the hands Of their enc
mics:
The Democratic Convention of Mississippi, after
re-nominsting the Governor who refused to take
measures for the punishment Of the assas sins OF
Judge Chisholm and other Republicans, and euio-
giving the Southern policy of President Hayes, re-
solved that any persons who should attempt 10
get ND an independent or opposition ticket to
the Democracy, should be regarded and treated
ss sspublic enemies" As it is rulable to shoot
public enemies, wherever found, the inference
is plain-any person who opposes the Democrat
ic ticket, forfsits his life. A Democratic news
paper of the State declares that, the Republican
organization having been abandoned, the causes
which justified fraud and violence no longer ex-
ist, and honest elections must be restored. Pac-
ifcation in Mississippi is complete.
In South Carolina, which the patriot and
statesman, Hayes, turned over to the tender mer-
cies of Wade Hampton, who is to he the next Re-
publican candidate for Governor Of that State,
the entire school system has been broken up, and
Yankee school teachers driven out. A move
meut Ia now on foot to indict and send to the
pspitentiary Gov. Chamberlain, the lawful Gov
srnor of the State, who was betrayed and ahan-
doned by the patriot and statesman.
In Tennessee, which has been pscifed by the
selection of one of her leading rebels as mem
Der of the Cabinet Of the patriot and statesman
Northern school teaches are being notified to
pack up and travel, as no man will be employed
ss q teacher who does not vote the Democratic
ticket. Although slavery is prohibited by the
Constitution of the United States, Abolitionists
are as obnoxious down there as of old.
In the North, pacifcation bids fair to become G
as complete as it is in the South. The statesman
and patriot is strictly enforcing his order pro-
hibiting oface-holders from aiding to sustain the
party that elected him to Office. But one more
step is necessary-an order prohibiting Office
holders from voting the Republican ticket Al
paciication seems to mean satisfying the Demo
cratic party, regardless of how Republicans
may be trampled under foot, the statesman and
patriot cannot do much more in that direction
than he has already DONE
And this is the weakliDg, the traitor, and the
fraud, whom Republicans are asked to endorse
as an honest man, true Republican, a states
man, and a patriot!
