wApE's LETTER AND ITS EFFEcT

WADE LETTER AND IT'S EfFkCT.
The publication of ex-senator Wade's
letter attacking the Presidents policy
has served to stir up the politicians very
much. and is the subject OF a great deal
OF discussion to day. The opinion seems
to prevail that this letter will encourage
ether Republicans to speak out their
convictions. Senator Gordon is saying
that the President has done something
which the Democratic party has been
trying to accomplish, for years, and that
is, make a united South and a divided
North.
Under this condition Of things the sue.
cess OF the Democrats in the next great
contest is assured. The Richmond Dis
patch OF to-day says: 1T is folly to sup
pose that the Presidents action, in re
gard to South Carolina and Louisiana,
will result in any Democrats leaving
their party TO join the Administration.
The President has simply followed Dem
ocratic doctrine in the course pursued
for which he is entitled to praise"

CONGRESS.

A concurrent resolution was adopted
in both houses of Congress for the ad-
iournment OF Congress from Saturday,
December Is, until Monday, January TO-
Mr.. Sargent reported from the commits
tee on naval affairs the House bill for
the relief of the sufferers by the wreck
of the United States steamer Huron, and,
after amen lments to make the bill con-
form 10 usage in such cases, the bill was
nassed. Mr.. Mitchell spoke at length
mon his bill to extend the time for the
Construction and completion of the
Northern Pacific railroad, The Senate
then adjourned until Monday next,
In the House the only matter OF inter-
est was the massage of the bill for the re-
lief of the sufferers by the wreck OF the
Huron as amended by the Senate. The
Senate amendment provides for the pay
ment to the heirs OF those lost on the HUI
ron a sum equal to twelve months sea
pay: to the heirs of Capt. Guthrie, of the
life saving service, sum equal TO his
compensation for one year, and to the
heirs of those belonging to the wrecking
steamer B. 81 j. Baker, who We're lost
in attempting to save those on board the
Huron, 800 each. The House then ad-
iourned until Monday.

PRESIDENT HAYES AND SENA-
TOR PATTERSON.
THEIR INTERVIEW ON FRIDAY.

Senator Patterson, of South Carolina,
in response to a request of the President
that he would like to see him, has called
at the White House and had lengthy
interview with Mr.. Hayes. Senator Pat
terson talked very plainly. He said to
the President that he regarked him as
the destroyer of the republican party in
the South; that the quiet which now
reigned in that section was the quiet of
death. the President, in reply, said
what he has frequently said to others
that his whole sympathies were with the
republican party, that he desired the sue
cess of the republican party in the South,
and that he solemnlY believed that the
policy which he had initiated was one
that would build up and not destroy the
party.
Senator Patterson said that in the
speech which he had lately made in the
Senate he represented the views of the
great body of the republicans of both
the South and the North i; that he had
received quantities of letters from repub-
licans in all sections of the country
warmly commencing the sentiments of
his speech. The President replied that
his information was that the great body
VI tuc IcpuullSduo appLOfOu MS COuISoy
and he thought that while he was bene-
filing the party he was at the same time
pacifying the country and strengthing
confidence everywhere. Senator Patter-
son then said to the President that his
recommendations in regard to South Car
olina affairs, in which he spoke for the
republicans of the State, had been total>
! ly disregarded, as had been his views ON
various matters which he had laid before
the executive. He said further that one
great fact existed which spoke volumes
as to the effect of the Presidents policy
on the fortunes of the republican party
in the South. He asked the President to
name one instance where republican
meeting had been held in the South since
his Inauguration, and said that so far at
least as South Carolina was concerned he
was sure the President would be unable
10 comply with his request. The con-
versation continued in this strain, and at
its conclusion the President and Mr.. Pat
terson found themselves exactly where
they begun, each convinced that the
other was wrong.

GROWING OLD

Softly, oh softly, the years have swept by
thee,
Touching thee lightly with tenderest
care;
Sorrow and death did they often bring
nigh thee,
Yet they have left thee but beauty to
wear.
Growing old gracefully,
Gracefully fair.
Far from the storms that are lashing the
ocean,
Nearer each day to the pleasant home
light,
Far from the waves that are big with COM
motion,
Under full sail and the harbor in sight,
Growing old cbeerfully,
Cheerful and bright.
Past all the winds that were adverse and
chilling,
Past all the islands that lured thee to
rest;
Past all the currents that wooed the un-
willing,
Far from the port and the land of the
blest,
Growing old peacefully,
Peaceful and blest.
Never feeling of envy or sorrow
When the bright faces of children are
seen,

Growing old willingly,
Gladly, ween.
Rich in a faith that has grown with thy
years,
Rich in love that grew from and above
1t,
Soothing thy sorrow and hushing thy
fears.
Growing old wealthily,
Loving and dear.
Hearts at the sound of thy coming are
lightened,
Ready and willing thyIhand to relieve
Many a face at thy kind word has bright.

| Growing old happily.
| Blest, we!believe.
| Eyes that grow dim to earth and Its glory
See but the brighter, the heavenly glow
Ears that are dull to the world and iti
story,
Drink in the songs that from Paradise
| flow;
All this sweet recompense
Youth cannot know.
| Forward, yet softly, the years have swept
by thee,
Touching thee lightly with tenderest
care
Sorrow and death they did often bring
nigh thee,
Yet they have left theeA Abut beauty to
wear.
Growing old gracefully,
Graceful and fair.
