JUDGE MAcKEr' 5 JUDGMENT.

Judge Mackcy Is an idol OF newspaper
men inasmuch as judicious tapping Will
always elicit something interesting. In
tho course OF conversation with q rc-
portor for tho Daily Meas, no gave some
interesting facts regarding the proposed
contest OF tho vote of New York. He
states that the Democratic Committee
have in their possession proofs OF the col
onizntiOn or 22,cOU voters from Vermont,
Massachusetts,, the District of Columbia
and other points, and hnvo tho details of
the movement, tho lines thoy travelled
other overwhelming evidence which will

The Judge thinks the Solid South
should stand by tho Democracy now.
Having ialtered once in 1876, we would
,,S,:S;o .h;c confidence cr.he Na.icna! r..-.;
forts to obtain justice, and discourage our
friends to tho point of deserting MS and
allowing the North to soidify sure
enough, In support of Capitalization OF
government, the two parties dividing the
spoils OF the South Congress, he says, can
strato 10 the satisfaction of tho country
the means by which the Republicans OBJ
tained their apparent victory
Judge Mackey Is vigorous defender
OF John Kolly, who, ho considers n much
maligncd man. He states that tho real
htotoay VI tuO OI Gcnce lOr
Mayor of New York, is that under the
eompromise between tho two factions,
Irving Hall Wis to namo twelve men
from whom Tammany was 10 select the
nop:'nee. Mr.. Grace being among the
twelve was chosen. A Fl. Stephens has
described John Kelly as the most spot
less party leader no ever knew, and
Judge Mackey thinks tho description a
peculiarly just one. In all tho bitterness
Of tho attacks made upon him, not eyan
the New York Herald has datcdl TO assnil
his personal character. Kelly spent his
money freely for Hancock, and Hancock
himself has the highest opinion of him,
and stss frequently expressed II.
Judge Maekey ascribes tho headway
made by tho Republican party North to
two Causes. One OF them was tho failure
OF the Democratic party to declare for a
tariff protecting the industries by which
0OQ.pD0 men live, for fear of offending the
West This policy, however, while not
gaining voto In tho West, afienated tho
great mass of those working men. He
argued at more length than tho columns
kof the Daily Ne,rs will bear, to convince
the wielder of the pencil TINT the popular
idea that protective tariff raises prices
to consumers ;s erroneous, his theory

addressed to him, as To his opinion
Whether the South should remain sol
idly Democratic, and
Whether he would suppo the attempt
t. count New York for Hancock
COLUMBIA, November 18th, 1880.
Ny DEAR SIR: In reply to your uues-
tiOns, / answer that think il very i'm
portant, especially to the South. that the
Democratic party should retain It's organ
izatiOn. The fact that our friends Of tho
North were not able To give us ~ large n
vote as they hoped for is no reason that
we should desert them. The policy of
tho party will be dictated by future
events.
J. regard the Presidential election as
settled, and should oppose any action
looking to Il contest on mere technical
grounds as revolutionary.

q. DO understand you to express tho
opinion that tho Solid South is n good
thing for tho South?

It,

a. Well, 1 say to you frankly that 1
think ser'iondlism In any form is bad for
the whole country, and have mover used
an expression or cast n vote since have
been In tho Senate that can be tortured
into sectionalisn. But q much greater
calamity may beihll the South than its
solidity. i am not so sure but that her
sOlidity will be o great advantage to her
in many ways 1t Will &c. Interfere " iii
the dlsch, rge of ovory duty she owes to
the General Government. It may make
hor self-reliant and sclf-depcndent, very
deairable clements in her future career.
1t will protect her against the sudden in
fiux of very undesirable population,
which with the negroes would constitute
one OF tho most dangerous connlunes the
world has over known. 1t would bring
about thorough introspection OF herself,
ak. gradually draw ii61 into the ;iTis oi
progress with the rest of tho civilized
world. Tharo are many elements of
Southern civilization that are better than
! the Northern, and ought to bo preserved.
And then, again, there arc many of our
habits that might we'll DO replaced by
y.
the Solid South keeps tho revolutionary
Radicals ut bay, and thwarts their ma.
chinations and plans to change tho form
OF this Government from constitutional
Republic to centralized desDotism.
There is no moro doubt that euch a pur-
pose Is contemplated, seriously contem.
plated, than that we are here 1 say,
therefore, that the Solid South Ia not an
unmixed evil. So long as we have hon
est State Governments we will advance
and develop In marvellous degree, and
Will do this without aid from anybody,

GARFIELD AND THE BIBLE
a Few Apt Quotations for Him
TO Answer.



To the editors of the Pittsburg Post.
I wonder whether the Rev. James
A. Garfield understand he is an or
dained clergyman-can stand up and
testify to his integrity as did Samuel
of old?"
Behold, here | am, witness against
me before the Lord and before his an
nointed; whose OK have | taken2 or
whose ass have l taken2 or whom
have | defrauded? whom have | op-
pressed? or Of whose hand have | re-
oeived any bribe to blind mine eyes
Herewith? and | will restore it to
you"
Were he to stand up, the people
would shout out, "Oakes Ames, De
Golyer, $1,000, Tilden, s to Z, and, the
Lon d only knows how many oxen, ass
es and mules"
Let us give the reverend gentleman
q text or two for his consideration
when he exploits again in the desk:
He that walketh righteously and
speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth
the gain of expressions, that shaketh
his hands from holding of tribes, that
stopneth his ears from hearing of
blood and shuttpth his eyes from see
ing evil"
Thou shalt not wFest judgment :
thou shalt not respect persons, Mother
take gift. for gift doth blind the
eyes Of the wise aud pervert the words
Of the righteous.
"As a roaring lion and raging
bear, so is wicked ruler over a poor
people.
THE king by judgment establisheth
the land but be that receiveth gifts
overthroweth it.
You will judge from the above chat
| was in pew on Sunday and rightly.
