presumed that without formal authorize

It seems clear, moreover, that othefiead-
ing Republicans, notably Secretary Sher-

volved in this bargain to secure the
acquiescence of the; South in Hayes in
auguration, and. that the affair was car
ried so far that General Grant actually
issued an order directing the withdrawal
of the troops from the State of Louisiana.
The; evidence on this point is said to be
conclusive, and lit sustai1s the charges,
the result. of the revelation must be the
moral and political ruin of the Republi-
cans engaged in the compact. Treach-
cry of such bargain towards their allies
disgraces them as ipartisans; and the
treachery towards those with whom they
made the treaty in refusing to carry out
their agreement disgfaces them as men.
