SOUTHERN REPUBLICANS AND
THE PRESIDENCY.

No class of people in this country
are 80 much interested in the cleo
ton of Republican President,
next November, as Southern Re-
publicans. Republicans in the
Northern States can get along rea-
sonably well under o Democratic
administration. They have Repub-
lican local governments, and are
sustained by a public sentiment.
But Democratic National admin
istration is death to Republicanism
in the South. We have had a hard
struggle to maintain our organiza-
ton in the past. We have been
scowled at and buAetted, and
in many localities suffered per-
secution for opinions sake.
But the fact of a Republican
President has operated as res
straint upon our enemies, and we
have survived the storm, though in
battered and damaged condition.
But our conflicts have made the
principles of the party all the
dearer to Southern Republicans, and
they, above all others, are interested
in success this year.
How can we labor most success
fully to bring this about, is the
question that must concern Repub-
licans in the South profoundly.
What course is the best for us to
pursue +? We want a President who
will exercise every power vested in
him by the Constitution and the
laws for the protection of Repub-
licans in the South, and we
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1880-02-11

must have a candidate who
can be elected. We want a
man who will recognize us as Re-
publicans, having rights and priyl-
leges equal to those of Republicans
in other portions of the country.
At the same time, we must recog-
nize the fact that we can contribute
very little to his election. This
being true, Southern Republicans
should be exceedingly cautious
about going into combinations to
force any particular candidate upon
the party, who is not the choice Of a
majority Of Republicans in States
where we expect electoral votes.
Southern Republicans should, in
our opinion, avoid even the
appearance of what might
be construed into an effort
to dictate a candidate at Chicago.
We do not think they will. We
should like to see a delegation sent
to Chicago from each one of the
Southern States, composed of wise,
cool-headed, cautious men, who
have the good of their party and
their country at heart, and without
instructions, so that they might ex-
ercise their judgment when the
emergency comes, as to what is best
to be done. This would not EN-.
barrass Republicans from other Sec
tons, but would give confidence
and add strength to the party,
North as well as South. We feel
entirely confident of the ability Of
the Republican party to elect its
candidate for President this year.
If we do not it is our own fault,
and we want to see the canvass
begun and conducted in such a way
that Southern Republicans can
claim some credit for accomplishing
result in which they are so pro-
foundly interested.

First Romance of the New Spring.


 It is moonlight on the Hill. From out the trees gentle zephyr creeps to rob the hya- cinth of it's perfumed breath, and adown the garden walk the whippoorwill lends his mono tone of sadness unto the balmy night. Sleep, with breeding wings, sits silent OCT the scene. But hark! it is the tinkling guitar strummed by the lonely Augusta. He comes. Beneath the vine-clad window in the ghostly gloaming he pauses, and up the fower-trellised wall he shoots melancholy tenor fraught with the passionate inquiry, stMust leave thee here alone ?' No answer returns save the haunting echo and the low clicking of 8 distant door. The scene changes.
 It is the back yard tablsau. A white robed old man bends above chained dog and sooths his too eager spirit as he loosens the collar. low voice says ''S-cc-ceck him, Bull-take a short cut round the rose-bush." fash and the old man is alone. The chatter of fallen guitar comes from the front; 8 sound like the rush of a steeple- chase nearing 8 hedge is borne back, and neck and neck two figures cross the picket fence to disappear down the dim perspective of the deserted street. Then the old man meets Bull as he returns on the outer walk, and removes in discouraged manner 8 dark object from his foaming mouth, while the animal retires to his kennel in silence. The door opens and shuts upon the white robed form, and all is still again. But as he gets in bed and shoves the old ladys feet out of the warm place, he nut ters, 'Bull is gettin' old, an serenades don't pay divydends like they used to, but if the business keeps up, think you will be justi fled in startin' another patchwork quilt, Maria.

Eoaxted to Death by the Sun. TEra-,o thu

Dr. Schweinfurth, in lecture which he re- gently delivered at the Berlin Geographical Society on the subject of his latest expIora- 1 tions in Central Africa, gave his hearers thrilling account of the mode in which capital punishment is inflicted upon criminals by the AlQuedjis, small tributary of-shoot of the great and powerful Djour people. The male- factor condemned to die is bound to post firmly driven into the ground in some place where no trees afford shade, and is there slowly roasted to death-not by any artificial means involving waste of fuel, but by the natural heat of the suns rays as they reach our earth in it's equatorial regions. To pro tract his sufferings and to avert his too speedy end by un-stroke, the ingenious Al-Quadjis cover their erring compatriot's head with fresh green leaves which effectually shield his brain from Phoebus darts. No such protection is, however, accorded to his body, which gradu- ally dries up, shrinks together, and ultimately becomes carbonized. One chance of saIva- l ton is open to the roasting man, while as yet he is not completely ''done to death." If cloud pass between the sun and his place of torment he is at once cast loose from his post and becomes the object of popular reference as mighty magician in whose behalf the su- pernatural powers have deigned directly to in tervsne. But clouds seldom interfere with the administration of justice on the days chos-
 en for public executions by the l-Quadji au-
 thorities at least, that appears to be Dr.
 Schweinfurth's experience of African weather
 as far as it bears upon the judicial roasting of
 indicators.
