The Pantagamist Chief.

| From the Rutland Herald.
With the shrewdness peculiar to his
nature John Humphrey Noyes, for thirteen
years president of the Oneida Community.
has abdicated in favor of his son. Dr.
Theodore Richard Noyes. He is only
sixty-six years old. and, having lost none
OF that vitality and vigor which have made
him SO successful a leader of the institution
OF which he was the organizer and inyen-
tor, his act is merely formal, and while he
lives he will probably remain the power be-
hind the throne 10 the meanwhile The
son will become strengthened in the
position to which the tact of his father has
raised him, and, having inherited the same
extraordinary character and capacity for
command. the community will lose none of
rs autocratlc rule of the past. Mr.. Moves.
the elder is native of Windkam county,
tie graduated at Dartmouth and studied
theology at Andover and Yale. At that
time, when he was twenty-three years old,
he had some thought of becoming an
orthodox minister. Meeting with Metho-
dist perfectiouist. however, he became a
disciple OF pertectionism, and finally, after
varied experience with many different
and peculiar schemes of religion. of MANY
of which he was the originator, adopted
the views of religious communist. be-
Iieving that all things should be held in
common. and especially in the family rela-
tons, An attempt to put these views into
practice IN Putney, in 1916, was fortunately
unsuccessful and he was driven from the
state. The community was then formed
at Oneida. N. Y, and under his manage
ment has proved success, 80 far as the
prosperity of the institution is concerned.
A family of three hundred people has
thus been gathered together where the
principles of free love or pantagamv are
fully practlsed. The members are said to
be honest, thrifty and orderly. the woman
60elng intelligent and content, but it is
doubtful whether the mere good behavior
of an immoral community would warrant
its existence.

Senator Thurman, in a debate in
the Senate February Is, 1873, showed
very aptly what would be the fate of
quo warranto bill should Mr.. Tilden
attempt to dispute President Hayes
title. Mr.. Thurman said: "Suppose
Il contest of the Office of President.
Suppose that one man is declared, IN
pursuance of the Constitution, to be
President of the United States; of
course then he is inaugurated; and
then contest is begun by quo war
ranto in the Circuit Court of the Uni
ted States; that Circuit Court enters
a decree ousting the President from
his office, an appeal is taken to the
Supreme Court, and that Court
affirms the decision, how are you 60
ingto enforce it? 1t is made the duty
Of the President to see that the laws
are faithfully executed. How are
you going to enforce that? The Su-
preme Court has no power to do it.
1t commands no army; it has no treas
ury. How can you enforce a judg-
ment of custer against the man who
is de facto President of the United
State and has the army at his back?
Was it ever intended by our fathers
that any such state of case as that
should arise? 1t seems to me certain
ly not. 1t seems to me that these
considerations abundantly show that
the idea ofcontestiug the office of
Chief Magistrate of the United States
in any Court whatsoever is not to be
entertained for a moment"

OF a meeting held at Columbia,
Tenn, last week in reference to Pres
ident Hayes Southern policy, Mr..
Redfield writes:
columbia is in Maury county, a
region the population of which are
decidedly Democratic in sentiment.
Seven eighths of the whites supper
ted Tilden. But the pacification
policy of Hayes has brought to his
support large and liberal element
among the whites, an element
mainly of old Wing stock, who have
no particular affiliations with the
Democratic party, only as that party
represents opposition to the rule of
the late slave race in any Southern
State. Yet in this Democratic To-
cality, Notwithstanding Hayes has
lost considerable prestige by delay
ing action in the two contested South
ern States, large meeting was held,
the matter discussed pro and con,
and ending with vote so close that
the Chairman was perpleXed to de-
termine whether the yeas or nays
had it. He decided in favor of the
yeas. Congressman Whitthorne,
late chairman of the Naval Commit
tee, was not pleased with this divi-
sion of sentiment. He made a
speech arguing against divided coun-
sells, and that the Southern people
should stand firm and united, and
not be led astray by false promises"
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1877-04-14

Here are two paragraphs which
should be read together without stop
ping to take breath. The first is from
the Utica Observer: "Hayes' fraudu-
lent title to Che Presidency is insep-
arably linked " it'll Packard's fraudu-
lent title to the GovernOrship. The
same Returning Board declared both
falsehOods. The same process which
destroys one dstroys the other. How
is Hayes to retain the lions share of
the his stolen goods vile Packard
is deprived of his moderate allotmed
of the plumber That is question
which engages the attention and
battles the skill of the Pretender.
Hence these delays and this commits
sion." The other is from the Rich
mond Dispatch: "Mr. Hayes title to
the Presidency ought not to be COM
pared to Packard's title to the Gov
ernorship of Louisiana. Mr.. Hayes
title was declared to be good by the
two Houses of the Congress Of the
United States in joint convention
assembled. Those bedies being DIES.
ignated by the Constitution as the
ones having the exclusive authority
to decide the question it would seem
that Mr.. Hayes title to be President,
however bad it might have been the
day after the November election, or
the day after the various Electoral
Colleges met, is now as good as if he
had been the choice of a majority Of
the voters" There is evidently lull
in the workings of the Liberty street
mill.

Discussing the Recent Republi-
can Gains" in the Louisville Courier
Journal, eX-Cougressmon Watterson
says: 1.-The result of the municipal
elections held in various parts of the
North the last few days does not sub
stantiate such Democratic hopes as
built themselves upon the notion of
a great popular reaction against the
Electoral Commission. There has
been no reaction at all. On the con-
tarry, the Republicans have, as a
general thing, made encOuragings
gains, conspicuonsly in Cincicanti
and Chicago, where they swept the
field. Why is it? The true solution
of the mystery is to be found in the
peculiar condition of the popular
mind and temper prevailing at this
time. The people have had ID years
aye, 90 years, of incessant agitation
They are tired of agitation, and they
are sick Of one subject. They want a
rest, and they want change. The
new President caught the cue and
played npon it, so that at the present
moment the country, looked more to
the futuer.than the past, and full of
expectancy, has taken Hayes at his
word, and given him the benefit of
OF course success goes for something.
Then the Democrats are somewhat
Disguised with their leaders. But, in
the main, the cause of the large vote
given the Republican tickets every
where is the desire of the people to
give the new Administration a
living chance in its policy of recon-
cilliation and REFORM"
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1877-04-14

Here is little calm advice from,
the Philadelphia Enquirer which
some hot heads would do well to con-
slider: "The truth, whichthe politi-
clans should be able to see, is that
this revolution is the peoples; that
President Hayes is but executing the
popular will, and that it is reaching
to the supreme height Of folly and
counting the most ignominious de-
feat to attempt to turn the tide of
justice and reform which the new adj
ministration has started on the flow.
The old leaders can gain nothing by
making catspaws of Messrs. Cham
berlain and Packard. They may
prolong the struggle for little while
longer, but they cannot win any
point Of vantage by it. Their defeat
will only be the greater at the end.
The wise, courageous, quiet man at
the White House, with a govern
mental policy built upon the rock of
justice, honesty economy and public
esteem, cannot be driven from it by
the few political leaders whose selfish
interests are hurt by it. Let them
recognize this as the peoples Adj
ministration, in contradistinction to
the politicians Administration. If
they are really shrewd they will not
try to turn back the tide, but try to
float with it,"

The following extract from a New
Jersey Democratic paper illustrates
the spirit which pervades large
number of Northern Democratic pa
pers: 1.-THE way to settle matters per-
manently in Louisiana and South
Carolina is for Governors Nichols
and Hampton to hang Packard and
Chamberlain as thieves and traitors,
and let Hayes and his troops and his
orders go to the devil" The following
from the Mississippi Aader is Il sample
ofthe items going the rounds of Dem
ocratic papers of the South: 1--WE
hope the administration will see its
way to a just conclusion. We prefer
that President Hayesshould do right
that he should win the esteem and
confidence of the country by a wise
and liberal statesmanship." The con-
trast is both marked and suggestive.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1877-04-14

The Nashua Telegraph says that a
Maine Democrat told General Head
in Boston the other day with much
emphasis and earnestness that he had
worked hard for Mr.. Tilden but he
was glad Mr.. Hayes was President.
He had no doubt now that it was
best for the peace and prosperity of
the country that he should be, and he
had, in fact, written a letter to the
President expressive ofhis approval.
A great many more Democrats feel
that way than are likely to take the
pains to say it.

An election for Mayor and six
councilmen was held at Ellicott city
on Wednesday last. The voting was
conducted with perfect order, all the
saloons being closed during the day.
A majority of the votes were cast by
colored men. Two tickets were in
the field, but the voting was without
respect to politics. Both candidates
for mayor were Democrats. Three
Republicans were on each ticket for
councilmen, and four of the six cleo
ted were of that party.
