THE FRAUDULENT HAYES.

Private advices from Washington pretty
clearly indicate that his fraudulency Hayes
is in hot water, and that it will continue to
grow hotter until it scalds him to death
Chamberlain's address to the republicans
gave him undiSguised annoyance. That docu-
ment gives Hayes to understand that the
troops were sent to South Carolina to protect
villains while they were committing frauds
in the interest of the radical party. Grants
purpose by the despotic outrage was not
more to elect Hayes than to maintain Cham
berlain and other radical thieves in Office,
and that, after securing his (Hayes's share OF
the swag, it was not becoming to remove
the troops, thereby depriving others of
their proportion. In doing this Chamber
.ain gives Hayes to understand that he has
not acted the part of an honorable radical
thief-that he has not divided fair, nor
toted level. AS matter of course Hayes
squirms under the lash. Every arraignment
of disappointed radicals brings into bold out
line the crimes that made Hayes president.
1t is well understood in Washington that
Hayes did not desire to withdraw the troops
from South Carolina, nor was it his purpose
to do so. Chamberlain was his man, but
Wade Hampton was bold and defiant. He
had resolved to be governor or to have in
South Carolina a frst-class military
despotism, and il was this stand
of Hamptons that brought about the re-
moval of the troops. The great mass of the
radical party understand this and despise
Hayes for his weakness 1t is Hayes's guilt
that makes him cowsrdly; the handwrit-
ing upon the wall, the eight black spots
upon his SOUL these brighten him. A
special from Washington says that a noted
republican, just arrived from Boston,
having visited Wendell Phillips, saw a
bushel -basketful of letters from republicans
applauding his denunciations of Hayes; also
Ben Wade. of Ohio, is abusing Hayes with
characteristic severity, and jim Blaine pub
fishes letter in the Boston Herald which
very distinctly tells what he thinks of Pack
ards credentials The letter is as follows:
Your Columbia correspondent is in error in
his statement that l had conference with
Governor Chamberlain in New York. l have
seen Governor Chamberlain but once for a
year, and that was in the private cabinet
room of President Hayes on the 21tG OF March
/ Nor have written or telegrapneQ 10 him, or
heard from him in any way. The same is true
respecting Governor Packard, except in the
/ matter of one telegram received from him,
which L read publicly in the United States
senate But am sure that Governor Cham
| berlain knows that he has my profoundest
| sympathy in the heroic though unsuccessful
| struggle he has made in South Carolina for civil
| liberty and constitutional government am
/ equally sure that Gov. Packard feels that my
heart and judgment are both with him in the
| contest he is still waging against great odds
/ for the governorshtp that he holds by title as
valid as that which justly and lawfully seated
| Rutherford b. Hayes in the presidential chair.
/ trust also that both governors know
| resents the stalwart republican feeling OF
| New England on the pending issues than the
| same press did when it demanded the enforce
ment of the fugitive slave law in 1851.
l. Very respectfully,
| AUGUSTA, Me-, April 10, 1877.
In the opinion of Blaine, Packard and
Hayes were elected by the same damnine
frauds; their credentials have the stamp OF
the same perjuries. Eliza Pinkston. the
buzz-saw weneh, swore for both alike, and
Wells and his black associates we're paid for
crimes that were to equally benefit Hayes
and Packard. These facts are pouring in
upon Hayes. He is guilty of great crime
crime that he can not outliye
| a crime that has already damned
him in the estimation of honest men
The people of Louisiana do not want Pack
ard for governor. They did not elect him
to the Office, and it is equally true that they
did not elect r. B. Hayes president, and il
is against their will that he disgraces thai
Office. He was elected by bayonets. and
bayonets must sustain Packard or he will
have to go. 1T may be well that the sit
uation is as it is. Every movement of the
radicals brings the crime of the conspirator'
into greater prominence. The people car
see it distinctly, and may curse the mis-
creants Understandings and guard against
| their schemes in future
