The postpeuement Of the extra ses
sion until October was the wisest thing
that Mr. Hayes has yet done, in view
of his personal interest. The follow
ing paragraph from dispatches to the
Courier Journal contains the real Sc
eret of his delay. 1t shows clearly
that Mr. Blaine has not been without
power, and the incumbent has great
reason to fear his aggression. That u
effort would be made to uuseat Hayes,
seems probable
The discussion by the press and,,-ertain
spondents Of the quo tgurranto
process for ascertaiuiug Mr Haye,
title to the Presidential chair shows
that they are groping in the dark It
Is beyond doubt that much uneasiness
exists on the subject among prominent
Republicans, and that there i ground
for it. II may be stated that the ques-
ton has received since last winter care
full consideration Of the ablest profes
sional minds, apd that methods of pro
ceeding to eyict Hayes from Office have
been suggested, so simple, constitu
tioual, aud just that all the prominent
gentlemen to whom they have been
submitted pronounce them free from
any possible objection. Among those
consulted are eminent Republicans, as
we'll as Democratic jurists With the
Democratic party in Congress general
ly favoring this policy, the position of
the President will be painful and in
delensible
a we'll known Republican politician
to-day commenting on the subject,
said that if the President pursued his.
present course, making merely parti
san appointments, he would ALLEVIATE
the Southern members; and that with
out their help be could not resist au
attack upon his title to the Office Of
President when Congress should as
semble.

people over there are just now consid
erably Interested in the choice of a
new Legislature, which shall choose a
successor TO United States Senator

policy of Hayes very much As far
as / could Judge, however, the same
feeling among Republicans obtains
there that Is manifest on this side the
Mississippi. Some are pleased, others
placidly resigned to the new policy,
end others are out in open revolt.
How does the Democracy view the
situation ?"

in Ohio, and all over the countrys
They caunot comprehend how Mich

can be recognized as the legitimate
Governor OF Louisiana The recog
uition, though perfectly right, hardly
consists with former decisions, and the
Democrats are naturally indignant

Then you are not apprehensive OF
any split in the Democracy ?"
Not at all. The policy adopted by
Hayes in regard TO the South is iden
tical with that ioreshadowcd by Tllden
Mr.. Hayes saw what The country De

The Heoman and other Tate papers,

somehow or someway these papers

newspapers upsetting party usage, and
attempting to carry Tate noIens volens,

.uch as was raised when the incipient

\ collision can be provoked any day
in the week, by which a Mexican war
might be created to order. Three in-
terests look to such collision With
satisfaction, namely:
The Administration, anxious to raj
ly the party ou foreign war Of acqui
sition;
The speculators, greedy to seize the
mineral lands which they have long
been prospecting;
And the military chiefs, desirous to
maintain the army at its existing max
imum, or to increase it by new leyies
These three interests are all adverse
to the prosperity of the country, and
if successful in their projects would
augment the public debt, swell the ez
penditures enormously, increase taxa
ton, and arrest the progress toward
recovery, which is now going on grad
ually through severe economy.
Mexico is in distracted condition
and feeble from intestine strife. The
United States should at least sympa
thize with her mjsfortuues, and not
seek to aggravate them, or to take ad-
vantage Of this weakness. II there
are Mexican trespassers on the Rio
Grande at this time, they should be
eurbed aud punished.
We want neither Mexican territory
nor Mexican population. The area OF
the Uuited States is abundautIy large
for generations unborn, and when more
elbow room Is wanted. it will come by
a law as infalIible as eravitation.
There is dense ignorance enough
among the negroes of the South to
satisfy the most liberal desire on that
score. without adding to it the mixed
bIoods of the Indian, African, and

The armies hold, relatively, about the
same position, as for weeks past. Some
lighting has occurred, but with no
specially advantageous results to either
side. The Russians have not been
able to cross the Danube, and that riv

is impossible for several weeks. and

until they do cross In the meantime

In hard times people are inclined to
look at the dark side only of affairs
and, while complaining of the lack of
business, to forget the vast amount
which is actually going on around
them. There are, say 10000 600 peo-
pie 10 the United States. If these are
all put on the most meager rations,
they will each consume 500 worth of
provisions annually, so that during the
current year our free born and hun
gry Republican and Democratic citi
zens will devour at least 81 600, 600,
coo worth of provisions. These are
the army rations, so to speak-the
mess pork and hard tack of the camp,
without making allowance for the epi
cures who call for tenderoins and
spriug chickens, ornamented with as
o lragus and strawberries. Ii we let

.he German Army Massing.

1t has not heretofore been the Gus
rom of Bismarck to try to alarm any
7dversBry whom he desired to attack
10 1866, he fell upon Austria without
indulging in menaces beforehand and
lie suddenness of his movement upon
France in 1870 took the world by sur
rise. We cannot suppose, therefore,
hat, at this time, he desires to raise
any needless appr, h nsion in France
But if his intents be altogether peace
ful, it is hard to account for the rapid
concentration Of the German hosts
ear the French frontier, in Alsace
md Lorraine, within the past two
aeeks, or for the language of those
Berlin organs that labor to ascertain
and echo his opinions. The military
rider that was issued in Berlin pro
vides for only slight reir forcements to
Metz, Strasburg, and Saverne but, in
i.,ct, the forces already massed there
sbouts are almost as heavy and as fully
prepared as they would be if Won
