!, This IS work Of great research, and the
classical reader may rely implicitly upon it
for the skill and learning with which it is
done. Professor G1LDERsLEErE was our
own Virginia citizen and brilliant pro-
lessor in the University,of Virginia. While
we regret the, untoWard circumstances by
which be is LOST to Virginia, it is gratifying
that he still has n position Of great useful
ness and prominence. This work which
he has put before the, public is one OF de-
cided value to the community Of scholars.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-To-night the
Hartranft Club, of Philadelphia, 200 strong,
with; their band. started on tour through
F. Senator patterson, OF South Carolina;
said he was Pennsylvania, and, while
South Carolina, was proud OF
his native State. He knew Pennsylvania
always had stood up for the right, and
always voted for northern liberty against
southern slavery. he spoke OF the sacri-
fees the people Of South Carolina had made,
and that the northern people would never
know. what the southern Republicans had
.enduredin the late campaign. In the North
the ballot Is free; In the South men vote
the Republican ticket only at the peril OF
life. Many Of his own dear friends had
laid down their lives for the sacred cause of
liberty. But for the personal courage and
patriotic devotion, ,of South Carolina Re-
publieans Hayes would not have received
their, electoral vote, and therefore would
net be elected This was. a fact he begged
his hearers to reeollect., The party. should
mot forget the devotion Of the Republicans
of the. South, and northern men should
stand BY, them in this battle for the rights
Of human liberty oj l.; ,r.-g@i -n:git

some Pertinent Question:.
TUtica Observer.

Is there no redress? Must wrong which
no honest man in his sober senses undertakes
to justify or defend go unrighted? Must the
idea of self-goyernment, the American idea,
which our fathers established at the price of
much blood and many years of stern priva-
TONS be abandoned? Are we ready to adj
NIT that the republic has fallen so low that
two white thieves and two ignorant negroes
sitting in secret council, with locked doors,
in the city of New Orleans, can undo the
work and set aside the judgment OF forty
millions of people, by reversing the result
OF an election. Is there wrong without a
remedy? Does submission now mean secur-
ity for the future or does II simply open the
gates wider for greater outrages hereafter?
