FRED DOUGLASS RESIGNATION.

Fred Douglass has at last done what every
body has been expecting he would do-re-
signed his place as Minister to Hayti His
resignation was sent in on the 3lst OF July
but was not officially made public until
Monday.
President Harrison in giving Douglass this
appointment was mainly actuated by two con-
sderations. He felt that he must do some
thing TO concilate the colored element OF bis
party who bad voted for him in almost solid
phalanx, and he, at tho Same time, felt that
he must rid himself in some way OF Douglass.
who has been q thors in tho flesh of every
Republican President elected since the war.
No doubt Mr.. Harrison conceived it to be
brilliant and happy stroke of policy TO APP
point Douglass to Hayti. for thereby he would
kill two birds with one stone. He would APP
pease the popular clsmor of the negroes for
consideration to their race, and he would do
this in accordance with the eternal fitness of
things by sending negro representative to
negro Republic.
Events have proven. however. TINT Mr..
Harrison calculated without his host. Con-
trary TO expectations, it was found, after the
appointment had been made, that Hayti was
government which called forth the exercise
OF some diplomacy on the part Of this Govern
ment, and it was very soon discovered that
Douglass was not able to cope with the prob
lens which were presented to him for solu-
ton. In fact his administration of the
Office Of United States Minister 10 HyppoEte's
dominion was an absolute and complete fail
ure, and his recall was necessary.
This shows two things very plainly, and
they are. First. that however fine an orator
he may be. as an executive officer able 10
manage knotty diplomatic affairs Douglass is
anything but a success; and. second. that a
negro government has little or no respect for
another negro, and only white man can be
relied on to accomplish anything Of import
ance with negroes.
This resignation probably means the per-
manent retirement of Fred Douglass from
the public gaze as an official He may con-
tinue to pose as an orator and champion of
his race, but he has had his day and his mis-
sion is ended. About all that any Republican
administration will be likely to attempt to do
for him in future will be to give him pen
sion in the shape of some position where he
can draw salary, but in which he will not be
called on to perform any duty Of conse-
ouence

ME- HARRY HAMMOND, Of South Carolina
thinks that it is imperatively necessary that
the cotton crop should be regulated to
prevent overproduction; but the great trouble
is, how shall it be done? Repeated bankruptcy
as the result of overproduction has failed to
have the desired effect, and voluntary agree
ments have steadily failed Mr.. Hammond
thinks. therefore. that legislative enactment
is the only thing that will do il, and so he
proposes that law be passed requiring
license tax for every acre planted. and if any
one plants more than he has alicense for, that
there be imposed on him a fine of $50 for
every acre over and above his limit
Overproduction may be bad thing; but
law such as this would be infinitely worse
1t would make no end of trouble.
