The Old Wings of the South.

WASHINGTON, April 22.-Secretary
Thompson in an interview last night on
the subject of the formation Of new
patty, said the country was now in a
condition favorable to the adoption of
the principles which were the platform
OF the old Wing party, which party al
ways favored a tariff tor revenue, with
discriminating duties protective of Amer
lean labor, liberal system OF public
improvements, and a sound national
currency. The principle that the Fed
eral Government shall control such pub
lie improvements has been finally estab
lished. The people of the South are
now in an impoverished condition, the
people of the North are rich, and what
is needed is such system of public i'm
provement as will benefit that section
of the coputry-such measure as will
impress upon the Southern people the
fact that we are their friends and broth
ers; that we intend to live with them as
members of the same family, and adj
vance their interests and prosperity by
means of the power which Is III our
hands. l think we can demonstrate our
professions of friendship in no better
way than this. The name of the party
is wholly immaterial. If new party
were organized, or the Republican par
ty 80 reorganized as to recognize Wing
measures as distinct features Of it, the
old Wing members South would fall
into the ranks Owing to the prejudl'
ces existing South it ight be found
necessary to have change of name.
The Wings South are not Democrats.
They never were and never will be, and
they will go into new organization if
it carries in it the old Whig principles,
or even into an old organization gov
erued by those principles. They regard
the old Wing party as embracing pure
principles and patriotic desires. l have
always said that when the country be-
came diseased it could only be cured by
Wing remedies, and whenever we have
suffered from misgovernment or mis-
management We have applied to Wing
remedies for relief. Regarding the cur
rency, / am in favor of a gold and sill
YER basis, and think it would have been
better for the interests of the coun-
try if silver had never been disturbed,
and l regard the act of its demonetlza-
ton as one of ill,judged legislation, to
say the least. The power of the Gov
eminent should be pledged to furnish
stable and unvarying currency. There
can be no controversy about that. Our
currency ought to be national-a legal
tender for customs dues and all other
dues and resting upon metallic basis.
| am opposed to any further contrac-
tion, aud want to see specie payments
brought about, but not at the expense
OF the business interests of the country. .

In reply to the question what he thought
would have been the result had the
President recognized Chamberlain and
Packard, the Secretary said: 81 can
scarcely conceive the result of such a
course, but think it would have resulted
in long confusion, military govern
ment, and perhaps, in the end, anarchy.
In regard to the Presidents Southern
policy l do not think he could have pur-
sued any other course consistent with
his own promises, and dignity of char
acter. l think his policy is right in it
self, and that the removal OF the troops
was absolutely essential to national
Deace.

ACTUAL CONDITION OF THE PoPE.-
A letter to the New York Times, dated
Rome, April 10th, says: 81 shall not
be surprised to learn at any moment
that the Holy Father has passed away.
From all | know of his actual condition
of weakness, it will be more than ex-
pect if he fingers on to the end OF the
year. In few weeks (May 13) the
Pope will enter his eighty-eighth year.
A company of nearly thousand per-
sons paid visit to the Pope on Sun
day last, according to an arrangement
previously made. 1t was composed, for
the most part, of societies of Catholics
of Rome. 1t is said that the Pope bore
the trial of SO mnch imposed kindness
with evident signs of weakness and
suffering. No one can tell what sud
den breaking down may follow the
work laid out for the meeting of the
tens of thousands of pilgrims when
the warm weather comes on.

REFUSING TO Pray FOR THE PREsI-
DENT.-Since the November election
the Rev. Dr. J. S. Harrison, rector OF
the Episcopal Church at Monticello,
Fla, mas in his services omitted the
prayer for the President Of the United
States. He takes the ground that Mr.
Hayes was not elected and must, there
fore be an usurper. He consequently
does not recognize Mr.. Hayes as the
President of the United States in pray
er, as provided in the church service.
He has no objection TO praying for MIR.
Hayes as "man and sinner" and in
suitable language, as the de facio ruler
of this nation, but he will not pray in
the language of the prayer book for
him as the rightful President of the
United States.-JacksonuiLe Sun.
