THE PRESIDENTS SOUTHERN POLICY.

All the indications from Washington,
as stated by the leading New York
daily, point to the fact that the feeling
seems to be general among leading Re
publicans in both branches of Congress
to leave in obeyance causes of differ
ence, and to cultivate the conditions
favorable to party unity. While there
is no surrender Of opinion or conviction
by those who have been unable to
heartily approve the Presidents action
in Southern matters, yet the fact is
recognized that the only effect of con-
troversy over measures which are con-
summated and irreversible, would be to
foster dissensions within the Republican
ranks, and so play into the hands of
the common enemy. They do not,
therefore, as far as present indications
go, propose to engage in a party conflict
among themselves respecting issues no
longer practical; nor on the other hand
be tempted into quarrels that would
render impossible the partys success
in elections now pending, and which
would seriously impair its strength and
usefulness everywhere

THE MESSAGE.

The first message of President Hayes is
a concise, business like document. He
deals in none of the pyrotechnics of Ian
guage, but communicates to Congress his
suggestions in the plainest of terms and
modestly at that. There is in it nothing
that ought to excite partisan wranelng,
and if there be any difference of opinion in
either of the two Houses Of Congress upon
the subjects of his recommendation, we do
not expect that difference to assume the
shape of party divisions. He urges the
immediate passage of a bill to supply the
deficiencies in the appropriations for the
several departments. The pay of the army
is considerably in arrear and should be at
tended to at once. We hope Democratic
members as we'll as Republican will see the
necessity of doing justice to our little army,
and will not allow party needs to stand in
the way of the Government discharging its
obligations to the hardest worked branch
of the Government service. An appropria-
ton is also asked to enable citizens of the
United States to compete creditably at the
International Exhibition at Paris in 1873,
and also to pay the expenses of delegate
to the Prison Reform Congress to be held
at Stockholm next year. We shall have to
wait until the opening of the regular SEES
sion in December for any comments that
the President may have to make upon his
distinctive policy. This will have no effect,
we are inclined to think, upon the vigor of
the " fraud" yell of Democratic organs.
The unwashed gentry show few signs of
subsiding.

PATTERSON AND BUTLER.

Considerable cutlery has of late been
made by the immaculate organs of the
Democracy against Senator Patterson,
of South Carolina, whom they charge
with being guilty of nearly all the sins
mentioned in the decalogue and some
others not mentioned. These high
toned champions of purity yell them
selves hoarse, because the Senator does
not see fit to entrust his interests, even
his personal safety, to the tender mer-
cies of Wade Hampton and his Rife
Clubs. They roll their eyes heaven
ward in holy horror at the suggestion
that Southern chivalry" would be
unable to do justice.
Now Senator Patterson is under in
dictment in South Carolina for bribery
and peculation. We have no inclna-
ton to become his apologist We know
comparatively little Of the merits of the
case against him, and it is farthest from
our intention to voice his defense. If
he is guilty, let him be punished If
innocent, we hope he will establish it.
But whether innocent or guilty, of one
thing we are assured he exhibits sound
sense in refusing to submit his case to
men who but lately paraded themselves
in the role of Kuklux marauders and
masked murderers-men who descended
to the most despicable means to defeat

We started out in this article, how
ever, to make this observ alton, that
while Democratic organs show such

have occasion to refer to Senator Pat
terson's alleged crimes, they studiously
withhold the walls of their wrath when
they contemplate the record of NJ. c..

lures No denunciation from them for
the prime mover in the Hamburg mas
sacre.
We hope the people of this country
will not soon forget the circumstances
connected with that massacre. We
hope they will not fail to remember, as
the changes are rung upon "pacilica-
tion," how a peaceable procession of col
ored men, parading in exercise of their
secured legal privileges in one Of the
Commonwealth of this Union, were
attacked, upon the flimsiest pretext, by
aristocratic demons, chased with I'M
paraleled fury through the streets of a
supposed enlightened town, overawed
by the display and overpowered by the
use of brute force, and a number led out
and shot down with less compunction
than II they had Ocen dogs. Ana as
they remember these facts, we hope
they will not fail to recollect that the
leader in the outrage, the cause of this
damning blot upon our civilization,
is the person who to-day, in the shape
of this man Butler, is knocking at the
door Of our highest Legislative body for
the privilege of taking part in its DELHI
erations and being seated as member
in the halls made famous by long line
of distinguished patriots and states

COX on THE WAR.PATH.

While it is not much of compliment
to the moderate Democrats in Congress
to say that they are capable of rising
above the level of the narrow PARTISAN
ship always displayed by Mr.. Sunset
Cox, still it is refreshing to know that
at least forty of them voted with the
Republicans, on Tuesday, against the
effort of the irrepressibe Samuel to de-
feat the seating of Mr. Raney, the
colored Representative from South Car
DINA. Cox endeavored to excite parti-
san feeling against Rainey by reading
a letter from Wade Hampton, in which
he expressed his opinion that Rainey
had not been elected. Benjamin But
Ter, however, gentleman somewhat
extensively known away from home,
was promptly on hand, and very sue
cessfully turned Hampton's letter
against Cox, by showing that he (Hamp-
tony had declined to interfere as Gov
ernor, and that the letter in question
only expressed his individual opinion.
IT, said Gen Butler, "this be the
fact, it ends the case. If it be not the
fact, it ends my speech" This senten-
tious argument carried conviction with
it, and Rainey was seated by vote of
l15 to los. When the fact is remem-
bered that the certificate of election on
which the clerk of the House placed the
name of Rainey on the new roll of
members was the identical paper on
which the Democratic members from
South Carolina were seated, the animus
of Cox in raising the contest is appar-
ent. Numerous white men have often
whipped Cox. A coored man has Just
defeated him. Red is the next color in
order He should turn his next attack
upon some political Sitting Bull, with
no better probable results.

IT is evident that the French people have
confidence in Republican form of govern
ment. The present French Republic has
now been in existence six years, and dur
ing that time has been consolidated and
strengthened by being made more truly
representative in character. The recent
elections were conducted peaceably, and
the result is another victory for the Repub
licans. With the Government against them
and the great influence and popularity of
Mcmahon to contend against, and their
opponents more thoroughly organized than
ever, they have still achieved a victory
exceptional and decisive. If sagacious
leadership continues, we may bespeak the
permaneuce OF the French Republic.

A RETORT COURTEOUS.

The accomplished editor of "The
Cecil Democrat betrays unnecessary
nervousness over what his fears have
magnilied into a semblance of solicitude
upon our part for the helpless and be-
trayed Democracy Of Cecil county. If
the Democrats of Cecil have been be-
trayed by their representatives, it is not
the first time they have been made the
subjects of similar bargains and dick
erings, and they are, we presume by
this time, quite used to such family per-
formances With his accustomed pro-
fundity, he refers to US as the "new
found care-keepers of Democratic con-
science" The phrase sounds well, and
recommended itself doubtless to his
rhythmical ear solely by virtue of its
phonetic beauty The meaning of the
expression was doubtless as secondary
a consideration to him as it is to US.
On our word we assure our neghbor
that we have no desire to embark in so
Improbable an undertaking as the role
he so kindly but so gratuitously assigns

ize his political expectations, and next
Fall secure the Ring" nomination for
Congress, when he first harangues his
faithful brethren, we hope to swell the
crowd that shall applaud his-eloquence.
We then may have some comments to
make Meanwhile, that we may whet
the edge of our desire, we again sug-
gest that he publish. for the general
benefit, the letter recently received by
him from Mr.. Woolford, "drawing
mildly the reasons why Col. John NJ.
Miller was so summarily dismissed from

sions on our part, give US fits, Mr.. Ed-
tor, and publish that letter
