abut never before, and / desire to-,
state here that the statement pub
lished in the Times concerning my
alleged opposition to Mr.. Speer's
nomination is entirely untrue, l
had never heard of Mr.. Speers
nomination as district attorney for
the northern district OF Georgia un-
til the fact was published in the
newspapers. and I have never yet
expressed an nopinion on the subject
one way or another. I don't think
that Mr.. Speer's nomination is OF
sufficient Importance to the country
to warrant me in worrying myself
about it, and have not done SO yet.
Mr.. Speer, if he is reported correct
ly in the New York Times, has
simply lied about the people Of
South Carolina. I suppose that he
has done so in order to ingratiate
himself with his new Radical allies

cnNsIsTENCY.

CONSISTENCY.
Consistency is a jewel, the world
over; and like all other jewels it
has It's counterfeits and limitations:
Here as elsewhere, the imitation is
SO nice that we often take the coun'
terfeit for the original virtue.
The man who formerly pursued o
particular line of action, or advoca,
ted a certain policy which he has
now abandoned, is not necessarily
inconsistent. John G. Calhoun ex'
posed himself to the charge of in,
'=--sSs;:stency-a very grave charge
s:seIoS son 70 brought home to statesman
!, Exchanging his ysT.knovn views
81 questions Of public moment.
.sae tur-ed a complete somersault
u gSn the tariff QUESTION. Once a pro.
ssectionist, h@ became a free-trader
:iof the straia9t of the sect of Nulli-
siers. Busae was not on this ac-
count p6essarily inconsistent.
1.-The recent session of the Cen
- Assembly certain members
;ho had advocated the establish
gaent of the, railroad commissions
lFocated the bill which sought to
Sieprive the commission of the
!, over to fix rates, thereby, in great
measure, emasculating it. Those
members were promptly charged
with inconsistency. One of them
has met the charge with the decla-
ration that he changed his line of
action because it was right to do SO,
anG he would rather be right than
consistent in the mistaken sense.
He is right.
Important questions often de.
mand legislation in our country,
which are, So hard to understand in
all their relations, that what one is
to call his conviction is
not undisturbed by doubt. And
the man who has advocated any
measure or policy should not adhere
to it after he is convinced that it is
wrong, merely to escape the charge
of inconsistency. Those who study
legislation as statesmen are bound
to do, are likely to change their
views on certain questions-and
they should not be too timid to act
according to the change when the
public good demands it. And the
false pride, or stubbornness, or
wantonness which teaches otherwise
should be condemned.
a well known living philosopher
says, "The man who can't change
his mind is fool; but the man
who won't change his mind is a
much greater fool" This sentiment
is correct; no one will convince
the public that he is endowed with
all the cardinal virtues, by doggedly
adhering to his expressed conyic-
lions.
The man who votes for protec-
oep while he believes free-trade to
'rossYht, is inconsistent. The man
