THE EEpuDLICAg pARTr AND HAYEs'
Eaassts "a. Rrx1G.

The policy of Pr sident Hayes has
been quite severely criticised by num-
Der of prominent Republicans of The
country. Tho cabinet appointments
were the first to direct the fire Of the die
satisfied. The conciliutory policy pur'
Eued Thus far towards the south is anoth'
er occasion for "clash CT arms" We
might mention, perhaps, tho attempted
enforcement of the civil service rules:
and other devi&tions from the routine
adhered to by the preceding administra-
ton, which have caused some dissatis-
faction in the Republican party, but why
enumerate all the objections we hear, as
long as they are so cheap. lfthis prom
inent politician who is an extremist gets
upon the stump and with flourish OF
trampets and buckets full OF rhetoric at
tempts to pronounce funeral Grafton
over the Republican party because Pres
ident Hayes vicws and public acts have
clashcd with lis peculiar ricws-therc
is no reason for Republicans to become
frantic and desert the man who bears
the standard of tho party. Wendell
Phillips maybe good and great man.
The wonderful fuIlflment of his pro-
phecies in the past may almost en-
title him 20 rank among The phrophets
of old. And yet he is only human and
subject to human passions, like all OF us.
as the personalsms and invectives in his
last "great speech" will attest. lie may
not be safe guide for the trying pres
emit, however we may be disposed TO
trust implicitly in his ken Of the best
thing 10 be done for people OF twenty
years hence and his prophetic attributes.
We want moderate prophet-not q vi
oent one. We regard the views of Rob
ort G. Ingersoll upon the cabinet appoint.
ments of just as much importance as
Wendell Phillips.
Again, it is not all,important that the
vicws of this, or that public man, who
has aspired to dictate the policy, or the
appointments, of President Hayes and
has been disappointed therein, should be
the law in the case to determine how the
balance OF the members Of the RepubIi-
can party snail regard the President and
his acts. All are thinking men and de-
sire to be charitable towards all The dis
tinguished names which have aided in
making the party great and powerful.
President Hayes has but just entered
upon his career as the CHEF executive of
the Nation. In fact, he has had hardly
time to announce what he intends doing.
His policy has hardly assumed shape.
AS Republicans who love the party and
desire its success it is not for us to de-
sert him whom we have exalted to the
first place in the land until we are posi-
lively assured that he has become Ty-
Ter or Johnson. We must not become
frightened before there is serious occas-
sion for fright

all over the prospective release otTweod.

THE METHODISTS on THE SITUATION.

Our Methodist bretheren do not seem
to be united in their views on President
Hayes conciliatory policy. Only few
days ago the New England Conference,
assembled at Boston, were almost ready
in their resolutions to tear President
Hayes IN pieces; while the New York
Conference which assembled at Rondout,
last Monday, "bclieving that under or
binary circumstances conference
shout ddecline to discuss tho political at
fairs of the nation, deemed that the pres
ent exigencics call for an expression OF
confidence 10 tho upright intentions and
statesmanlikc purposes of President
Hayes. firmly believing that the policy
thus far adopted, by Cancellation towards
those formerly in rebellion, and good
will toward those in bondage, cannot
fail to advance the welfare of the nation
and the interests of Gods kingdom"

Gong down to Buffalo IN a steamboat,

This was inspiring, and reused the
young Wing heart to the red,hot pitch
of enthusiasm but for all that it didn't
mean much. Sorgs were plenty, but
deeds were scarce. The cheers were
hearty, but men and women and children
continued TO be sold to the highest bid
der, and slave pens prospercd under the
very nose of the Goddess of Liberty In
Washington. Triumph came to the
Wings, and the man they bad elevated
to power signed the fugitive, slave law,
that made every freeman of the North a
hound to chase down the fleeing fugitive
who made leap for liberty.
The old Wing party died. 1t ought
to have died for, with a genuine senti-
ment in favor Of justice to all men per
meating its rank and file. it had not the
courage to assert its beliefs or make a
manly stand against the constant az
gressions Of the slave Democracy.
IL died, and from its ashes sprung the
Republican party. the party Of John
Brown, of Abraham Lincoln, of Charles
Sumner, Of Joshua r. Giddings, of old
Thad Stevens Il party with more cour-
age, more manliness, more honesty,
t.. ore POSITIVE, square spunk in it's com
position than al tho combined parties
that have existed liz this country ever
possessed.
1t was created for business, and it at.
tended 10 it. 1t knew what its duty
was, and
II for it there and then
1t fought the insolcnt relic of barbar-
ism from its very cradle. 1t was knock
ed down, only to rise, and come up,
bruised, but determined to fight again.
IT suffered, bat ii preserved F; it lied, but
it conquered. 1t drove back human
traffic from TIE virgin soil of our Terri
tories and when the fratrcidal hand of
the defeated oligarchv was raised in
vengeance against the Union it stripped
itself 10 the waist for the encounter, and
hurled the slave drivers back TO the sea
Thus throttling them with one hand, it
reached down with tho other and raised
the victims of their hate to the plane OF
manhood and clothed them with the
rights Of citizens. For the first time
since the formation Of tho government
its flag was not n symbol of oppression
and ia bill of rights a seIfevident lie.
This is the history of the Republican
party, which has just attained its major
iiy. Now, "sonebosy" wants to bury it,
forget it, turn back upon it. and, lifting
up the carcass OF its respectable but de-
funct ancestor, install the latter in liz
place.
Possibly this may be done, bnt there
are few millions OF the old guard of
Republicans left who will refuse 10 be
present ~ the ceremonies, and who will
not assist to drag the buried party forth
in its grave clothes, in order that

Young ladies, if they only knew how dis
gushing to men sloyenliness is and how at
t%ractive are displays of neatness and taste,
would array themselves in the simplicity
and cleanliness of the lilies of the field or
if able to indulge in costly attire, they would
study the harmonious blending of colors
which nature exhabits in all her worke. A
girl of good taste, and habits of neatness,
can make a more fascinating toilet with a
calico dress, a few cheap laces and ribbons,
and such ornaments as she can gather from
the garden, than a vulgar, tawdry creature
who is worth thousands and has the jewelry
and wardrobe of a princess.
