sOUTHERN AFFAIRS.
An Interview with President HAYES on
the Subject.

NEW YORK, October 20. The Times Wash
ington correspondent reports the interview with
President Hayes, in which the latter, referring to
the political condition of the South generally said
that until recently there had been since the be-
ginning of his administration conflicts betwee u
the whites and blacks, growing out of political
differences
The President was reminded that no important
election had occurred in the Southern States since
his advent to office, and that the democrats had
held undisputed sway everywhere throughout the
South, no reason pretext existed for disturbing
the colored people who we're not democrats.
The President said that he was aware of that
fact, but yet the result was what he asserted He
would protect the colored race in the endowment
OF their rights, to the utmost of his power. No
effort will be spared TO execute the laws efficiently
| AMI vigorously. Measures will be taken to bring
the transgressors to justice.
The President was very emphatic in these dec
larations. He spoke of the Attorney Generals
letter to the District Attorneys of several South
ern States, and said be believed that the instruc-
tons therein contained would be zealously com
piled with by the officers concerned.
The President appeared to entertain a deep
rooted aversion to employing the army for the
purpose of executing the laws, and said that mill
tary force should not be resorted to except in cas-
es where the employment of such force might
become an absolute necessity. He expressed con-
fdence in tine ability of the civil authorities to en-
force the laws, nnadcd by the troops and had no
doubt that the District Attorneys and Marshals
would discharge their duties to the satisfaction of
the public.
Abiding to the threatened attack on colored
people in Yensas Parish. La, the President said
he understood that Gov. Nichols was sincere in
his intention to preserve the peace and to call out
the State militia for that purpose, if necessary.

Most of the older residents OF this city will re-
member bright and intelligent colored man by
tine name Of Robert B. Lewis, famiarly known
as "Bob Lewis" who manufactured and sold an
article Of chair oil" that hal a great run for q
time. and materially assisted the worthy man in
maintaining his family. lie also pu bli,hed book
entitled Light and Truth in which he gave
evidence Of considerable research and no small
amount of ingenuity in his defense of the color
ed race to which he belonged He prided him
self on hi. long black curs that reached down
ever his coat collar, and would refer to their CLOS
sy appearance proof of the remarkable virtue
of his hair oil. He claimed 10 be Of mixed Span
ish, African and Indian blood, and his long flow
Jog curls and general expression of feature gave
evidence that his claims were we'll founded
Thick lips, fat nose and woolly hair were not
characteristic of himself or family He had sew
eral children, and among them a girl named Ed
monia. who has since obtained celebrity as a
sculptor. Whether not any others of the fam
lily are living cannot say, having lost all run
of Robert since he left the city, some thirty or
more years ago. These "reminiscences are re-
called by paragraph which we find going the
rounds of the papers, referring to the daughter,
whose talent and remarkable enterprise in her
profession should protect her from the sneers and
insults Of those not worthy the name of American
citizens. Whe copy the paragraph referred to as
follows:
The mother Of Miss Edmonia Lewis the sculp-
tor, was an Indian. her father a negro. She
Is dark. short and young. AT the Centennial she
was insuted and struck because she was ne
gress claiming to have done the work she did
At Chicago. where she, exhibiting her work, she
is constantly insulted by Doors because of her
color. In Rome she received the blessing of
Plus IN, who was kind to her Lord Butte pur-
chased her madonna" for 81 900; Lady Asbur-
ton has "The Old Arrow maker and Daughter"
and Lady Ophan has "Hiawsths's Marriage"
St. James church of Chicago has ordered from
her Madonna and child, and St. Joseph, and
she is to model Madonna for an Epscopalian
church in Baltimore.
Notwithstanding the prosecutions to which Miss
Lewis is subjected. she will prove herself more
worthy of honor and fame than her heartess de-
tractors.

VESSEL PROBABLY LOST,
The Arctic Schooner Florence, from 8,
John, Overdue.

New YORK, October 10. 1t is feared that the
Arctic schooner Florence is lost. She sailed from
st. John, N. b., for New London on her return
from the Arctic Ocean, Sept 26th and is overdue.
Although staunch built. and has supplementary
strengthening timbers and bracing, she is not re-
garded by Capt. Howgste as fitted for such tre-
mendous as she has doubtless encountered
since she lett st. John. This insuffciency is due
mainly to her small size (only SO tons). Captain
Tyson, however, considered her, when he made
the selection in the summer of 1877, every way
worthy of the severe and perilous service he ex-
pected of her in the Arctic seas.
