The New York B,stlstin discu sses Sen
stof Sherman's fitness for the position
of secretary OF the treasury and docs
not appear TO have very exalted opin-
ion Of his qualities. The editor SAYS
As a debater on financial measures.
Senator Sherman has always fallen
much below his opportunities and the
measures he has supported have always
suggested that he sas the.r putatiye
rather than their real parent. lie has
always shown lack of broad and
thorough grasp Of the resumption and
currency questions, and OF some Of the
measures OF shich he was chief promo
ter be has exhibited want of compre-
hension which plainly indicated other
pareniage. We shall therefore be agree
ably surprised should Mr. sherman
prove to be the Moses who is TO conduct
the country into Canaan of sound I'm
ance. Mr.. Sherman has shown that he
knows how to change his opinions quite
easily and, putting the most charitable
construction upon that fact, We might
suppose hun the more capable Of avoid
ing errors of stubbornness into which
notably ono Of his predecessors has fall
en- In respect 10 the silver question,
he bas lately advocated measures direct.
iy opposed in principle 10 the demoniti-
zation OF silver he successfully supported
in 1873. Ia respect 10 resumption, his
first measures contemplated the iuau
guration OF specie payments without
any contraction of the volume of legal
tenders his later pForosntS have t1r,-
notes as preliminary to resumption
If Mr. Sherman continues thus suscept-
ibie of modifying his views, we may
hope that lac may at last hit upon some
practicable method of cousumJnating
the restoration Of the specie basis"

General Joe Johnston is one of the

of President Hayes whose ayiF,oihtm4nt

change OF policy toward. the South and
who would really br ng strength 10 the

the BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

No one can oyer-estimate the impor-
tance of secure, economical and honest
administration Of governmental affairs
to the ordinary daily business of the
country. Capital is sensitIve-feels the
influences of. security and doubt at
every turn. When extravaganza pre-
walls IN the expenditures of the govern.
ment, its securities are deprecated to
the full extent of such influences but
when the contrary policy prevails they
appreciate. 1t would be too long n
chapter for US to give all the causes
now, of the extraordinary depression
which has prevailed for the last three
or four years. II is well, however, to
remember that part of this is due un-
doubtedly TO the threatening aspect
heretofore Of affairs in Europe. An
uneasy feeling has prevailed for two or
three years, and American commerce
has sympathised intimately with the
depression natural to this disturbed con-
dition. But with the present prospect
Of speedy and complete paeifcation in
Europe, and with the settlement of our
own immense governmental problem.
We may with almost perfect confidence
predict revival OF trade in all
branches. consequent upon the sense OF
security felt in every department OF
government and trade.
The chief value of the changed con
dition, to US Of the South, is found in
the fact that the new administration is
now square'y ON the record as tolerant
and even fostering in policy toward our
section.
The finance question. the relative
merits Of an early return to specie
basis, and the other Of imitation, are still
open questions, and no two men oi
either Of the great political parties oi
the country hold exactly the same
opinion. The evident policy OF liberali
~ toward the South on the part Of Mr.
Hayes, will tend to 80 restore coniidense
that every particle Of muscle and ever,
dollar Of capital in the South will b
expended in the effort to make the
coming crop the largest ever made, ane
this, with the prospect Of an eager an
profitable market in Europe for our
great staples, practically insures {
business season Of exceptional success
i To this end. let Texas bend her ever,
| enssSy, and when abe desa. the eis<c
| wil ~ innsnsass. II + tsus " ~,

We ARE disposed to do Mr.. Hayes

But when we are asked to say that his
Inauguration marks the era of the true
approach of the South to greatness, we
must be excused. Really. we must.
Hayes may prove to be vastly valuable
to our section. God knows we desire
that. but that he viii be. is entirely toe

osE remarkable circumstance. as we
conceive, attends the induction of
Hayes into the presidential chair Out
side of few sickly attempts at jubila-
ton the event has had none of the
traPpings of a party success. Indeed,
Republicans themselves regard the
means by which his success was pro-
cured as of doubtful propriety, and dan.
gerous even as precedent which may
obtain as the future rule in such cases.
Few Republicans outside of the ultras
feel any ether sentiment than shame
while the presidents course to the ex-
tfenists tiils them with chagrin Re
publican enthusiasm is. indeed. at d
low ebb. aud well it may be, for it has
won neither prestige nor territory in
