From the New York Tribune
What the President Thinks.

We are assured on the authority of a
Washington correspondent of the Herald
that the President is not surprised at the
opposition that confronts him in the repub-
lican party, and not at all alarmed at the
political prospect With respect to the
South in particular his satisfaction is most
serene. He believes that mo party could
hold the confidence and support of the
people which should plant itself on dead
Issues" 1t will soon be understood that
the lct-alone policy in the South is merely
an accomplished and irreversibe fact, and
then the useless agitation over it will stop ;;
this South. on the other hand, will cease
to be solid when the North ceases to be
sectional and hostile. We have no doubt
this correctly represents Mr.. Hayes Our
correspondence has been full of similar
statements. While Congress has been
quarrelling over him, caucuses lashng
themselves into anger, newspapers disput-
ing. politicians scolding, and factions
trembling on the ragged edge of anxiety,
the President has preserved cheerful, un-
changing face. and gentle peace and
drowsy complacency have brooded over
the White House tea parties.
1t is great satisfaction to fad a Presi-
dent who harbors no resentments and can
not even be kicked into quarrel. MI
Hayes is dischargng his high duties in a
spirit OF heroism from which the noblest
things can be expected if he be not led
astray too far by a purblnd adherence to
half-truths. OF the correctness of his pu-
rity and unselfshness OF hi. motives there
can be no doubt. The only fear of pru
dent republicans is lest his mind NAV not
be broad enough to take in The whole sit
uation oil the country. and acute enough
to distinguish between the things for which
the executive may properly strive in due
season and the things which be can do
now. and which he must do first if he cx-
poets to do the others at all. What be saws
about the Southern question is true. The
problem OF governing the reconstructed
States is settled by the logical progress of
events. The republican satrapies have
been abolished, not by orders from Wash
ington. but by their own msdeeds, and
they cannot be re-established. No party
can carry the country by angry lamenta-
tons over their disappearance, and the
sooner hostile speeches aud resolutions
are dropped at the North, the sooner will
the solidity of the South be undermined.
The President takes a proper view OF
past events and their meaning. 1t is still
more important that he should understand
the present and the future. The solidiiy
Of the South. however it may have been
caused, is grave danger, because the
