The South at Cincinnati.

New York World
What sensible and practical men
everywhere most wish to learn of the
South is whether the Southern Demo-
Gratis who constitute Il majority of the
Congressional majority have a patriot
ic, statesmanlike policy which the
country can be asked to approve in
November, or whittier the South is in
the hands of Otiicc-seeking artisans
who care for nothing so much as for
seats i'll Congress and offices under
Federal authority. Thoughtful voters
in the North have assumed that the
first desire of thc Southern peOpl. is
to see the relations of their States to
the union defined and established
speedily, exactly, wisely and Justly.
Much has been done in this direction
since 1874, but much remains to be
done. The canker Of Radicalism in the
East and West is not yet eradicatcd.
The temper in which the stalwart press
has dealt with the case of the negro
cadet at West Point, for example,
shows how virulent that cankcr still is.
The growing suspicion that Whitaker
wrote the note of warming To himself
has dampened the zeal Of fanatics like
Mr.. Townsend and his volunteer coad-
jutors for the moment, But tie whole
affair indicates the lingering in the
Republican party of Il vicious feeling
that somehow the negroes i'll the South
should be set uppermost in the social
scale wherever the negroes are in nu-
merical majority. President Hayes,
even, who does not permit the colured
Marshal Of the District Of Columbia to
hold the same relation to the White
House which all other Federal Mar
shals have held before him, eggs on the
negroes to demand in the Gulf States
what he refuses in to negro official
In the District of Columbia. Rational
people at the North and West think
this dangerous as we'll as silly, but how
Is 1t TO be put Il stop to! What the
South should seek, and what we hope
the South does seek, is first of all TO
satisfy the country that the Southern
people are as loyal and faithful to the
letter and spirit Of the Constitution as
Gen. Grant now proclaims them to be,
and mean to stand by the supreme
law Of the land" enacted Hereunder.
This once established, sensible North
ern and Western people wish to see
the South permitted to manage its own
domestic affairs in its own way, Just
as Massachusetts manages her domes-
tic affairs i'll her own way. As the
World has showed i'll the views we
have recently published Of the Massa-
chusetts delegates to Cincinnati, no
State wishes this more cordially than
Massachusetts. And Massachusetts
has always been the living fountain of
expressly Northern sentiment and
opinion. Out Of Massachusetts, went
the spirit which created the Republi-
can party. Massachusetts fabricated
and furnished the ideas which tri-
umphed in the final abolition Of slavery
at the South. As out of Massachusetts
came the war for the Union, so out of
Massachusetts now comes the voice
which calls the South along the true
way back to peace within the Union.

The Four Mile Law.

Some years ago the Legislature
passed law which has come to be
known us the four mile law. 1t pro-
vides that whisky shall nos be sold
within four miles of an Incorporated
institution of learning, except i'll i'll
curpor;lted towns. 1t has been very
literally constructed by the courts in
favor of the schools and against wills
ky selling, and has proven the most
effective temperance measure ever ell
acted by the Legislature. 1t beats To-
cal option. The facility with which
schools can be Incorporated has put it
in the power OF any five men Of Il
neighborhoOd to create temperance
circle of eight miles within which
whisky can not come. The law Is be-
ing very extensively called into requi-
sition. Not only are schools being in
corporatcd in almost every neighbor-
hood, but many towns procured their
charters to be abolished by the last
Legislature to get the benefits of it. 1t
has stimulated school interests to an
unusual extent. 1t has arrayed school
houses against drinking esta blishments,
with every advantage to school-houscs.
When the one goes up the other must
90 down. 1t has practically driven
whisky from the country and relegated
it to the town with police and work
house accommodations. Those who
think temperance people have'accOm
pliShed nothing in the last few years,
will find they are much mistaken on
studying the effects of the law. And
still the work goes ON. Thele is not
week passes but several scho, charters
arr registered. Nashville : crlld.

larity in his native New England
state, and his acceptability to all
shades of democratic opinion,
these and other equally weighty
considerations single him out as
prominently fitted to head the
democratic ticket in the approach
ing presidential struggle. The
political discomfort and uncer-
tainties surrounding the present
would be more readily quoted by
a man who steps from the SUI
pre- M Bench into the presidential
chair than by one who enters the
Executive Mansion weighed down
with the envyings and chickering's,
incident to the life Of any distin-
Suished politician. Upon him
the National Democracy can be-
come a unit and his administra-
ton would develop the firmness of
Il Jackson and the purity Of the
immortal fancy.

Out of the jostling rivalries Of

negroes who enlisted in the FEEDER

The two latest Greenback Con-

Judge Field in California.

Judge Wallace, n resident of Cali
fornia for thirty years and one Of the
most distinguished lawyers and poll
ticians i'll the State, arrived in Wash
ington on Wednesday. His commits
sion as Chief Justice expired in De
cember last. He will he clectOr- at
large on the Democratic ticket and a
candidate for United States Senator if
the Democrats should carry the Leg
islature. There could be no better
Judge of the political situation on the
Pacific than Judge Wallace, who is
direct from San Francisco. He says ::
Field can carry that and that coast
with Il whoop. We are all for him.
California will send a solid Field dele
cation to Cincinnati, but his friends
do not desire formal Instructions. We
feel very well disposed toward Mr.
Tillcn, but he would be weak in the
Pacific States. We also doubt his
ability to carry New York and Ger
tain Southern States. Judge Field,
however, would unite the party from
Sandy Hook to the Golden Gate, and
the victory in November would he rs
certain as his nomination in June. "

He then announced that the meeting was
called as Republican love~feast, for consul
tation, having for it's sole object the welfare
of the party. He trusted that their delibera-
tions would be of that character that would
secure for the nominee Of the Chicago Con-
vention an overwhelming majority through
out the State. [Applause.1 In order to ex-
pedite business the districts would be called
alternately, and he hoped that the gentlemen
representing them would respond promptly.
There we're nineteen districts, and to each
would be given ten minutes. This would
consume over three hours, and hence he
hoped there would be no delay.
