have ever made President Of
the United States by fraud and
that they shall not begin now.
In this determination we have
the utmost confidence that they
will be sustained by the most
respectable portion Of the Re-
publican party and by enough
Republican Senators 10 make a
peaceful issue of the controversy
certain.
If the attitude of the Democ-
racy of the North has been ad
mira bic, that Of the South has
been more 80. 1t has amused
us greatly to note the efforts of
the Republican journalists and
leaders to wheedle the South into
supporting the pretensions Of
Hayes. How laughable their
efforts are and have been can
we'll be realized only by those
who know the people of the
South, and understand how they
have been ground between the
upper and the neither milestone
of military satrapy and carpet
bag insolence. There was a
time when the Republican par
ty might have disengaged the
South from the support Of the
Democratic party, butts lea ers
preferred the expedients of low
cunning, and elected to crafty
their spite, in preference to
adopting a statesmanlike and
contiding policy. Had Lincoln
lived, a magnanimous policy
would have been inaugurated
with respect to the Sonth, which
might possibly have detached
that party from the Democracy.
The Radical editors, in address
ing the Southern people, remind
us that Northern Democrats
made us promises and then de-
serted US during the war. The
Southern people know very we'll
that the Northern Democracy
fought to maintain the Union
and not to menace our happi-
ness, the integrity of our States,
or our right to the pursuit of lib
erty and happiness, and they
know that the Northern men
who made promises to the South
were the first to join the Repub
can party when the war broke
out, as in the cases of Ben But
Ter, Caleb Gushing, John Coch-
rane and other men Of that ilk
The attitude of the South can
be explained in a word. 1t is
determined that the Republicans
shall not be able to say that the
Democracy is a rebel party. 1t
is wise, vigilant and patient. 1t
is in full accord with its North
ern brethren, but it has learned
the meaning Of that Injunction OF
Christ, ''be We wise as serpents
and innocent as doves" 1t in
tends to divest both its words
and actions Of anything like
buster Or intemperance, but it
will be found, like a stone wall,
in defence Of right, if the strug-
gle ever comes.
A thorough survey of the sit
uation satisfies us that Mr.. Til
den will be inaugurated, and
that he will be so inaugurated
by the consent and cooperation
of the responsible portion of the
Republican party, who cannot
permit their organization to take
on the character of body of
conspirators.

Retrospecting.
Erom the Dallas tTexas| Herald.

S@'S
There lies in the depth of every
heart that dream Of youth and
the chastened wish of manhood,
which neither care nor honors
can ever eXtinguish, the hope of
one day resting from the pursuits
which absorb us; of interposing
between our old age and the
tomb some tranquil interval of
reflection, when with feelings not
subdued but softened, with pass
sions not exhausted but mellow
ed, we may look calmly OH the
future without apprehension. But
it seems to us of the South that
i'll the tnmult of politics, in the
weary labor for the support and
education of our families, that
this dream or aspiration for rest
and happiness has well nigh
passed away. In the oIden time,
with Southern society well orr
ganized, and our people gener>
ally enjoying an easy compe-
lance, and ever extending a
warm hospitality. with friends
that were true, and a country
well governed and prosperous,
it were well worth our while to
rejoice and be thankful for exis>
tence itself. In those happy
days there was charm thrown
over Southern society Ivy the
genius ofits people, by the purity
and chivalry, the liberaIity and
courtesy, the elegance aud re>
tinement to which they had at
tained--in view of which even
the enemies of our institution
have not been able to withhold
some measure of praise. The
spirit OF the Southern people was
generous, magnanimous, confid-
ing. The South was the home
of all that is beautiful in sentie
ment, all that is exalted in &C
ton, all that is ennobling in
thought.
A land of happy homes and
fertile fields, of honest yeomen,
whose doors were ever open in
charity to the poor and hospi-
tality to the stranger; a land in
which pauperism and the vices
incident to it were unknown; a
land of wealth without oppres-
sion, of morality without phar>
isaism, of religion without fanati-
cism; it was, indeed, the fairest
beneath the circuit of the sun.
Dead and cold must be the heart
that does not warm with the
sense of its glory. But as beau>
tiful as the South has been, with
more than earthly glory resting
upon it, we may not close our
eyes to the fact that the day of
its beautiful civilization has pass
ed away, and that we are left
harder of heart, colder of impulse
by the wrongs we have suffered
and the poverty we endure.
How our children's hearts and
sensibilities may be moulded and
warped by this change in our
own, time only can tell, but to
the thinker the conclusion is well
nigh irresistible that the coming
race, while quite as Vi gorous,
and equally as brave as their
ancestors, will be wanting in
that high chivalry, minimizing
generosity. and exceptional cul-
ture that marked the true type
OF Southern men and women
They will doubtless be cooler in
judgment, less rash in their inn
pulses, shreWder in their business
relations, more practical and
economical, but we fear the
subtle and indefinable charm OF
Southern society once acknowl-
edged to be ours will have be-
come a romance, a tender and
happy "reminiscences of the past
