From Washington.

The political pulse here is I'M
doubtedly feverish. The imper-
turbability of the President annoys
those who differ with him. 1t be-
gins to look as if all the demonstra
tons thus far made by the disaf-
fected ones had for an object his
coercion to their way of thinking.
If the President would only meet
them half way, the dissatisfied ele-
ments would bind up their wounds
and make the best of the situation,
but he won't, and every one who
has a grievance desires the war kept
up. Just what the end may be,
human sagacity and foresight can
not anticipate. 1t may be that the
Presidential question will again be
reopened, with all its unpleasant de
tails, but if it is, such light is be-
ginning to dawn on the malcoDtents
that Hayes cannot be affected by it..
The Republican party may be will
ing 10 confess judgment for its own
rascalities. This would be all that
could be accomplished. The gen
eral sentiment of members-who,
during the recess, have had oppor-
tunity to get an expression upon
Mr.. Hayes course from their con-
stituencies-is that the people are
satisfied with him, if the politicians
are not; and if, as Evarts vouched
for him, that he would not pursue
any devious ways, he is as strong
as adamant against any attacks
which Blaine, Bill Chandler and
Conkling may bring against him.
The conspirators may annoy, but
they can not coerce or conquer him

SCHEDULE.

We do not wish to discuss the
State debt question any further
just now with anybody, but we must
correct the Review and Journal.
We gave some of Maj. Sykes opin-
ions two weeks since, and that pa
per, after quoting that part which
says that the legislature should re-
pudiate in toto if it comes below the
proposition of the creditors, so as to
secure a greater benefit for. the peo-
pie, because a partial reputation
carries with it the stigma and can
be no greater disgrace than to repu-
pudiate the whole, says:
If a partial reputation carries
with it the stigma, then our credi-
tors are in part responsible for
whatever stigma may attach to our
State at the present time, either in
the imagInations of such reasoners
as Maj. Sykes or in reality. These
creditors have recognized the ina
bility of the State to pay dollar for
dollar, and hence proposed them
selves to repudiate fifty per cent Of
the bonds. But we dcmur to the
pleading of Maj. Sykes, that be-
cause a part is repudiated we
SHOULD repudiate in toto and thus
secure a greater benefit to the peo-
pie" To carry out the full force of
the Majors argument, the Demo
cratic party should insist upon pay
ing the entire face and accrued inter
est of the bonds; if they do less their
action carries with it the "stigma."
Such silly reasoning as this is a
fair sample of the stock in trade of
the repudiationists. To speak of
creditor repudlating the debt that
is due him does not make even good
nonsense. The Review further
says "there Is determined purpose on
the part of the bondholders and
their allies to intimsdate and crash
every man and every influence that
may oppose their pet ideas and
schemes" and then, even while try
ing to play the martyr and while
crying "you are bulldozing u.s." it
says "the bondholders and their
friends can pursue a policy that
aciH drive the people to outright repmdia
tom Such an idle threat as that
cannot avail to drive the people of
Tennessee from an attempt to do
The fair thing, though the heavens

After Hayes, What?
baltimore Gazette.1

If the Republican Senatorial
combination against the Admins
tration, assisted by Democratic Sen
ators, should succeed in driving
Mr.. Hayes out of the White House
then what? William Aliande
Wheeler would be PRESIDENT Those
gentlemen of the Democratic party
who are co operating with the
Conkling faction had best consider
the effect of the Conkling victory,
should it succeed in making the
position of Hayes SO unpleasant as
to force him to resign. 1t would
matter little in the result by what
method Hayes were induced to va
cate the executive chair, whether
oy parchment, death or resigna-
ton, his successor would be Wheel
er, one of the most malignant and
treacherous extreme Republicans in
the country. Where would be the
gain to the country or to the De
mocracy? In the first place, where
would be the moral gain? Wheeler
owes his seat TO precisely the same
electoral frauds that counted Hayes
in. There would he no moral gain
in deposing one fraudulent Presi
dent that another fraud should sue
coed him. 1t is true that MIR.
Hayes is the receiver of the stolen
goods; but Conkling and Edmunds
and>their followers did the stealing.
1t was they who wrought the ever
lasting infamy of the electoral
fraud; they stole the diadem and
gave it to Hayes, hoping for their
reward. And now what is the role
of the Democratic Senators who are
cooperating with Conkling? Why
they are helping .the thieves to
wrest away the stolen goods from
one receiver to give them to an
other, and a vorse one; helping to
depose one fraud to crown another
and baser one. No; this Will never
do. 1t is idle to make Mr.. Hayes
the scapegoat of the electoral
wrong. Until the opposition party
directs its wrath, not at Hayes only,
but at Wheeler also, no Democrat
should give the movement aid and
comfort. While the Senatorial
group is working for party pur
poses and party spoils, it must do
it's work alone. Should it attack
Hayes on the ground of fraudulent
title to the Office he holds, then it
will be time for every Democrat to
take the matter into consideration;
but when this is done the proceed
ings must go to the root. Not only
Hayes must be pursued, but Wheel
er also. Let those Democrats who
are working for a Conkling victory
take heed what they do. Let them
consider we'll The manner in
which they vote will be full of mo-
mentous consequences, and they
will be held to strict accountability.

George Z. Pendleton.

Verify, the stones which the
builders rejected are becoming the
head Of the corner. The faithful
Democrats in the north, as well as
in the south, who were borne down
by Radical fanaticism, have been
restored to power. Only few
weeks since, Dan w. Voorhees, took
his seat in the Senate of the United
States, and he Will soon be Joined
by Mr.. Pendleton. Henry Clay's
motto, "truth is omnipotent and
public justice certain" has been
fully verified of late. In the dark
hours of the long night of misrule
to which Radicalism had subjected
our suffering country, when others
had almost despaired of the repub-
lie, and when Ohio seemed to grow
dim in the political armament, Pen
dleton never faltered in his devo
ton to Democracy. He believed in
the omnipotence OF truth and had
faith in public justice Southern
Democrats rejoice that their north
ern friends, who, amid persecution,
social ostracism, and without one
cheer or applause, defended them
and increasingly, have
been restored to power. The true
men of the north and west were, for
a time, borne down and oveIpower-
ed on account of their efforts to
shield the south from oppression
and wrong, but their day of triumph
has come. The appearance Of Pen
dleton and VOORHEES, in the Senate
of the United States-one the sue
ceSsOr OF Merton and the other the
of John Sherman-are
eloquent tributes to the grand old
Democrat party. 1t shows that
there is a vitality and a power of
recuperation in this organization
which makes it invinci5le and i'm
perishable. In every part of the
Union the Democratic banner waves
in triumph, summoning its friends
to gather around it and to prepare
for new triumphs.-Appeal

The Income Tax.

A Courier Journal Washington
correspondent regards it as now
certain that a majority of the
Ways and Means Committee will
favor the imposition of the income
tax. Ali the Democrats on the
committee, save Mr.. Wood, are for
it, and also Mr.. Burchard of Hi
nois. Good judges predict a ma
jority for it of at least thirty or
forty. This will be fought bitterly
by the bondholding and rich ele-
ment Of the East, but with good
management it can pass both
branches of Congress. The idea of
leading friends of the measure is to
tax only the excess of incomes
above $4,000 two per centum, and
the excess above $4,000 three per
centum. The policy will be to
press the income tax bill as a sep
arate measure, and it is probable
that the sense of the House will be
tested on it at an early day. 1t
will get a nearly unanimous vote
from the Western and Southern
members, who may of course pre-
pare at once to be denounced as
swiRdlers by the New York press,
for demanding an equalization of
the public burdens"

Four Children Drowned.

The Nashvill American, of the Sd
inst, says: Mrs. Morris Goodloe
went to Trenton, Tuesday morning,
and obtained a wagon to convey
herself and four children to her
home at Eaton, in Gibson county.
While crossing the bridge over
Rutherford fork of Obion river,
the team became frightened at the
noise made by the swollen stream
and backed the wagon off into it.
The four children were drowned,
and Mrs. Goodloe barely escaped
the same fate. Her husband had
died only about two weeks previous,
and she is now left childless. Her
sister, who was at party in Union
City, when informed of the terrible
catastrophe, gave a wild shrek of
grief and tainted. Medical aid was
summoned, and she brought to con
seriousness only to swoon away
again.
