say that Chamberlain will avail himself
of Hampton's pledges to the President
and await decision of the Supreme Court,

delay.

WASHINGTON CrTY, Feb. q, 1877.
To Hon. John B. Gordon and" Hon. John
Young Broaon:: 80.
GENTLEMEN-Referring to the conver-
sation had with you yesterday, in which
Governor Hayes policy as to the status
of certain Southern States was discussed,
we desire to say that we can assure you
in the strongest possible manner of our
great desire to have him adopt such a
policy as will give to the people of the
States of South Carolina and Louisiana
the right to control their own affairs in
their own way, subject only to the consti-
tuition of the United States and the laws
made in pursuance thereof, and to say
further that from an acquaintance with
and knowledge of Governor Hayes and
his views we have the most complete con.
fdence that such will be the policy of
his administration. Respectfully,
(Signed) STANLEY MATTHEWS,
-. CHARLES FOSTER.
In connection with the foregoing let
tiers, the following memorandum is given
as an outgrowth of the previous under
standing:
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27, 1877.
In an interview with the President this
morning, in the course of a conversation
on the subject OF Louisiana affairs, he
stated to me that as soon as the Presiden-
tial count was finished and the. result
officially declared, it was his intention to
notify General Anger by telegraph that
the existing military orders issued tor
preserving the status in quo of the politi-
cal situation were rescinded except so far
as simply to require the use of troops
when. necessary to the preservation of
the public peace. BE authorizes me to
communicate this declaration to Mr..
Ellis, of the Louisiana delegation.

JUDGE NoRTHRoP DECLARES FOR
HAMproN.-The Washington National
Republican publishes an interesting inter-
view with Hon. L. G. Northrop, presiding
Judge of the Seventh Circuit of South
Carolina, and introduces the interview as
follows:
"The Judge is a native born South
Carolinian, being a descendant of one
of the oldest families in the State.
When the late war took place, Judge
Northrop, his father and his brother all
enlisted on the Confederate side. His
father and brother were killed, and he
survived, to afterwards become Repub-
lican and firm supporter Of Governor
Chamberlain"
After paying high compliment to the
manhood and integrity of Chamberlain,
Judge Northrop proceeds to describe the
situation. The Democrats believe as they
do in their existence that Hampton re-
ceived over 1000 majority of the votes,
and is lawfully elected Governor. They
claim that it has been decided in their
favor by the courts, and they would eager
ly defend it by the last dollar and the last
life. I have never seen such profound
excitement and infexible resolution as
exists throughout my section. 1t is in
every fibre of the. atmosphere, and must
be felt to be understood. It is kind
with the frenzy that possessed the people
of Paris in 1898. 1t has been waiting
like chained tiger on the first move.
ment of Hampton's finger or lips. If
that movement had been made, the whole
army of the United States would have
had business on its hands. Further on
he says: IT am q Republican, every
inch of me, and Carolinian, every inch
of me, and 1 don't want to see the State
pass into the hands of the Democracy,
but 1 don't want to see it 60 to the devil,
either"
Reporter-Well, if Hampton becomes
Governor, would peace follow?
Judge Northrop-Yes, sir; it would
most undoubtedly, and with that peace
would come ample protection to all the
people alike, and property would at once
become enhanced in value full 25 per
cent.

INTERVIEW WITH CHAMBERLAIN.-
From the Washington National Repu6li-
ca,rs report of an interview with Mr..
Chamberlain on Tuesday night, after he
had had two talks with President Hayes,
we take the following:
Question: IF Hampton should be
recognized as Governor, would the e'e-
ment which you represent in the State
peaceably abide by the decision
Answer: ''To that l cannot say. It
is one of those hypothetical questions that
does not admit Of any positive answer" :"
Question: Suppose the decision be
to simply withdraw the troops from the
State House and allow no further FEEDER
al interference-what then would be the
result?"
Answer: "That is also hypothetical
question-one that have never consid-
cred, because I have contemplated no
action adverse to my claims as Govern
or"
Question: "It is stated that, in the
event of an adverse decision, you will
not return to South Carolina. Is that
true 2"
Answer: "No, sir; if such a thing as
an adverse decision to my title is possible,
I shall go to South Carolina at all haz-
ards and remain there. Of course, what
the more remote effect of such decision
would have upon me is thing l cannot
now intelligently speak Of"
Before ending the interview, MIR.
Chamberlain said he was now ready to
act according to any suggestion which
President Hayes might be pleased to
make, and would either make his formal
statement to the President alone, or in
the presence of Mr.. Hampton or any one
else. He would act according to the
pleasure of the President.

the circumstances it would not be in good
taste.
WASHINGTON, April l, 1877.
In reference to the withdrawal of the
troops from South Carolina, it can be au-
thoritatively stated that President Hayes
is decidly opposed to leaving garrisons of
Federal troops in the State House ofany
State, but he holds to the theory that
troops may be stationed in the vicinity of
any place where difficulty is liable to
occur and in case of violence or riot they
may be called upon to preserve the peace.
The former he regards as purely politi-
cal move, without warrant of constitu-
tional provision, while the latter is a
legitimate governmental power, and can
be as appropriately exercised in South
Carolina as it is in the various other
States where garrisons are now stationed.
The enforcement of these views will re-
lieve South Carolina, but they 90 not
cover the Louisiana case, Packard being
entrenched in the State House, and the
soldiers in the vicinity.
Governor Hampton, Senator Gordon
and Gen. Butler dined with Gen. r: ID.
Robertson, at Welker's to-day. Gov
ernor Hampton will postpone his depart
ure until Tuesday morning unless he re-
ceiyes an answer to his letter of yesterday
within o few hours. The letter was writ
ten on Friday night and truthfully skele-
toned in the dispatches, and after some
verbal alterations was handed to the
President yesterday morning. The text
is inaccessible. Mr.. Chamberlain will
also leave on Tuesday morning. 1t may
be accepted that as soon as the rival GOV,
ernors have arrived at Columbia, and
have had ample time to resume the posi-
tions held by them when they left Co.
lumbia to visit the President, the troops
will be ordered from the State House,
but not from the town. Legal proceed
ings will follow this withdrawal, which it
is believed will result in the almost i'm
mediate establishment of the Hampton
government. Chamberlain and his
friends do not expect any other solution.
Governor Hampton said tonight that
he considered it pretty well settled that
the troops will be removed from the State
House, In which event he thought there
would be no difficulty in peaceably Sc
curing the State government without a
resort to legal proceedings.
WASHINGTON, April 2.
The formal order of General Kruger to
remove the troops from the State House
at Columbia to their camp is being pre-

City improvements.

The enterprise of our city when
contrasted with other places of a
larger population is cheering, and it
can be truthfully added that in no
single year of the past has the same
amount of money been expended
in the building of substantial inn
provements. Our churches vie in
beauty and grandeur with the hand
soonest of the land. Our stores,
warehouses and manufactures are
of the most stable character and
would favorably compare with SIM
liar houses of Louisville or else
where.
We take pleasure in noting that
they have "broke dirt" for the cab
met building of the Southwestern
University. The excavations are
nearly completed. Mr.. John Brad
ley has contracted for putting up
| the brick work and expects to do a
handsome job. Mr.. Bradley takes
great pride in his work and fine
job on this public building will add
to his well-merited reputation. The
building is to be two stories above
the basement with bell tower and
projecting gable in front, projections
on rear for stairway and back hall,
a wide hall through the centre, stone
trimmings on front and sides, with
stone-trimmed CACHES. The size of
the main building is 81 by "A feet,
besides projections. The basement
will be used for laboratories, first
story for cabinets and recitation
rooms, second story for public hall,
though designed ultimately for cab
inets. The contracts will most prob
ably be all given to our tOwnsmen.
When completed it will be an orna-
ment to our city and another proof
of her enterprise and Gberality.
We were cOurteously shown by
Mr.. G. B. Wilson, of the Sewanee
Planning Mill, the design for Mr.. j.
5. Elders new building on Frank
lin street, adjoining Caldwell & Shell
toms Livery Stable. The ground
floor is to be furnished as store
rooms two, 2Ox70 feet in size, above
to be public hall, with neat stage,
the windows will be easily opened
by weights, the seating capacity
will be about three hundred, bracket
cOrnice in front over stoves and for
roof, which will give it a handsome
front.
The residence of the Hon. JnO. F.
House isreceiving its finishing touch,
which adds greatly to its slightly ap-
pearance.
DIR. G. w. Beaumont will shortly
commence the erection of a fine res
idence.
Besides these improvements, G.
B. Wilson & Co. have a contract for
the building of a beautifully-de
signed Gothic cottage for Mr.. w. S.
Ramey, at Hampton's Station. A
gOOdly number of other improve
ments are contemplated, but at pres
ent notice would be premature.

ing sermon by Rev. Mr.. Stone, a
young minister of the Cumberland
Presbyterian church. His text was
taken from the Parable of the La
bOrers, and although we have heard
this subject discussed many times,
we have never heard it with so
much interest as on this occasion.
The boy preacher rs he was pleased
to call himself, left the old, beaten
track, and clothed his sermon with
much original thought, delivered
with great zeal and eloquence. We
have rarely heard better sermon.
a very large and attentive cOngre-
CATION was present, and much good
feeling and interest was manifested.
The meeting was to continue during
the week. On account of sickness
we were compelled to leave early
Wednesday morning, which we
much regretted, as we were anX-
ious to remain and enjoy the meet
ing and the society of old and cher
ished friends. We have always
been partial towards McAdOo and
its hospitable people, and we trust
this meeting will result in great
good to that church and neighbor-
hood.
