What was the Trouble with Hayes.


On Wednesday, the presidential party,
now swinging round the circle" in the
Eastern States, attended the commence
ment exercises at old Harvard College, and
among the persons called upon for
speech at the Alumni Dinner exercises was
the Acting President. Mr.. Hayes. The
Associated Press telegraphs:
''Mr. Hayes arose with apparent diff
dence. He was evidently laboring under
intense emotion. When he had obtained
sufficient control of his feelings to enable
him to proceed, he said briefly and with
evident difficulty" &c.
Now the question is what was the trou-
Bile, and what were the peculiar circum-
stances attending such situation which
should give him the appearance of laboring
under intense emotion, and cause him
to speak briefly and with evident diff
Guilty" No doubt an occasion of so much
intellectual entertainment caused "a flow
of reason and feast of soul. but Heaven
forbid the thought that there was anything
10 either the edibles or potabies which
could have induced such remarkable emo
tons, such extreme difidence, or sucf
lack of mental control.
The classic shades Of Harvard is where
reason is supposed to sit enthroneC
in serene and undisturbed majesty
What then was wrong? Was intellec
tual greatness and the Olympian air o
the Hub too overpowering, or was tht
afternoon too warm and sultry, or die

assemblage
We would really like to know wha
allied him, because we want the benefit o

occasions, and we really cannot bring our
selves to think that it was a like cause i
both men which produced such simila
