4 contest OF Gen. GarneluS majority IN tne
State Of New York are met with the unmis-
taxable protest of leading Southern men.
There is probably not one in hundred of the
Southern people who believe that Garfield was
not, on the whole, considering the low ave-
rage of election campaign morality, fairly
electe |, and who Il res not believe hat II close
investigation would reveal but rs many ir.
regularities and improper devices on one side
rs on the other. So far, not the least OF the
points raised against the prima facie republic
can majority in New York is based on a mere
technicality in the form of the ballot. The
real purpose, perhaps. of Mr.. Barmm is to
present an element OF confusion or distraction
that may serve to allay disgust at the discred-
table and disastrous Shape which he
and other democratic managers finally gave to
the canvass for Hancock aud English. The
conservative sentiment Of the South wants no
season of doubt, suspense and mischievous ag
itation for the accommodation of smelling"
committees, who cannot hope to accomplish
more than the exposure of certain amount
of republican corruption and trickery to pal
late the laundering or perfldy of democratic
leaders and furnish Boss Kelly an argument
for his further political existence. The South
ern people in general want peace, and want
settled and clearly-defined situation, and the
Northern wing of the democratic party will
culated to seriously imperil either. If the
solid South did no, get its choice for president
it raised 5000, 900 bales of cotton, worth
$240, 00O, 000 1t is no longer poverty -strick-
en-, neither is it prosecuted. 1t is urged by in
terest and duty alike to abstain frorr a vexa-
tious and futile agitation. While it is not to
be expected that the conservatives of the
South will undergo any sudden. any sweeping
change in the matter of party affiliatioR before
they see further into the future, 1t IS also i'm
probable that they will longer submit to being
used as cats paw for Mr.. Barnnm's mon
key There appears to be nothing in the way
now of continued Improvement In the rela-
tions between the Southern States.and the
central government and it would seem NOR.
ally impossible that Gen. Garfield, whose abil-
itY, prudence and conservation are generally
conceded, should make any ,jsharp departure
from those features of administration policy,
during Mr.. Hayes's presidency, which have
had the approval If not of sspoil-mougers and
machine bosses, of the agricultural COmmer-'
cial and manufacturing interests of the coun-
try, North and South. For the rest, it be-
hooves she Southern people to concern them
selves primarily with the best means of max
ing and saving money, effecting, interna' i'm
provements, and diversifying their industrial
pursuits; and whatever issues may arise, II Is
to be hoped and presumed that they will
hereafter make party adhesion secondary to
the promotion alike of home interests aud
national prosperity. GaIoestOts 1egas) Ne,os,
