dent has sdcceeded in boating down

allaying a host Of conflicting passions.
The visible Triumph Of his poIicy is
now being assured. lTo he has this

Southern States, which iBEintcnded to
show that the work of pacifcation is

raj Government has no intention Of
interfering in the local adniuistra--

Southern States have no desire TO
disturb the great achievements Of
the civil war which have been en-
bodied in the constitutional amend
monts. The removal Of the objects
of contention makes it easy to ro-es-
tablish friendly relations between
people who respect each other, and

The Louisville Courier Journal,
describing the manner in which tho
appearance of Gov. Hampton was
greeted in that city, says: "lho Pro
sident, as has been his custom, intro
duced most of the speakers himself,
and next brought forward Governor
Wade Hampton, whom he referred
to as noble patriotic man. Tho
enthusiasm on Hampton's appear
ance was most intense. 1t might be
said to have reached fovor heat. 1t
was fearfnlly contagious. To tho
observer it looked as if the crowd
intended to keep cheering him for
an hour. Cheer after cheer rent the
air, and again and again was it re-
peated. Until finally tho crowd
must have become exhausted and
was compelled to quit. The gallant
South Carolina Governor was over
whelmcd by the exhibition of kind
ness and even devotion to him. At
last he was given, all opportunity to
proceed"
