ey There are plenty of pledges from
the present powers that be, in South
Carolina and Louisiana, that the negro
shall be protected in all his rights. The
southern politician has never been adj
dicted 10 the weakness of telling the
TRUTHS, in iact, an unconscionable
liar,-and their pledges are valuable
accordingly; but il really looks as ifthc
march Of events, thanks TO the concilia-
tory policy of President Hayes, was 60
ing to make their pledges good. In
Louisiana the whites, no longer having
the federal government to fight against,
have already begun TO fight each other,
and as result the negro will be kindly
patted on the back by both parties.

THE HIGHEsT RAILROAD BRIDGE IN
THE WoRLD.-The Cincinnati papers
are giving accounts of the opening of
the new southern railroad from that city
to the Kentucky river, where there is
said to be the highest railroad bridge
yet built. 1t is 275 feet high. having
three spans, the middle one $50 feet
long, and the others 800 feet each, the
total length being 1925 feet. There is a
bridge III Switzerland which is POI feet
high, but with spans only l44 feet long,
and one at Varragus, in the Andes, 252
feet high, with spans l25 feet long.
The piers of this Kentucky bridge, ex-
cept at Brooklyn, are the largest in the
country, the stone work being 1870 by
AZ feet, and the base of the iron work
III by 20. The frame is all wrought
iron, and was built out from the abut-
ments towards the centre of each span =.
The fastening of the junction points
was accomplished in novel way. One
sunshiny day having expanded the
framework, the connecting bolts were
fastened, and so much secured; then a
second day of sunshine having given all
the expansion the bridge was capable
of, the bolts were made fast permanent
ly. At the opening, the other day, the
bridge was subjected to seven severe
tests and stood them all admirably.

Ben Wade on the President.

JEFFERSON, Ohio, April 8.
To u. II. Painter, WASHINGTON, ID. c.:
My DEAR SIR :-Your letter of the 9th
was duly received. You ask whether
remember what said In favor of Presi-
dent Hayes in my endeavor to procure
his nomination at the Cincinnati con-
vention. do remember il, after what
has since TRANSFERRED, with Indignation
and bitterness of soul that never felt
before.
You know with what untiring zeal
labored for the emancipation of the
slaves of the south, and TO procure JUS
tice for them, before and during the
time | was in Congress, and supposed
Gov. Hayes was in full accord with me
on this subject. But l have been de-
ceived, betrayed, and even Inundated
by the course he has taken, TO degree
that l have not language to express.
During the first month Of his admins
tratiun we find him closeted with two
of the most malignant enemies of the
colored race that can be found in all
that slave-cursed region, and there con-
sulting with those malefactors how best
he can put these colored people under
the iron heel of their most bitter enc
mics, and reduce them to q condition
infinitely worse than before they were
free. feel that TO have emancipated
these people and that to leave them I'M
protected would be crime as infamous
as to have reduced them to slavery when
they were free. And for Hayes to do
this TO the men who had at the hazard
of their lives given him the votes with
out which he never could have had the
power TO do this terrible injustice! No
doubt he meditates the destruction OF
the party that elected him.
A contemplation of all this fills me
with amazement and inexpressible in
dignation. Ny only consolation is that
history informs mt that better men than
| ever pretended to be hare In like man-
nef been deceived. Some have attempt
ed TO excuse him by saying that he
"means we'll" but hell is paved with
Jus snch good intentions. Truly yours,
D. F. WADE.
