The Southern people, not having seen a president for twenty yearn, urc jubilunt over the visit of Mr. Hayes in h.s Southern tour. lie makes the Sotrhorn people buliovo ho is a great frieml of theirs, but had be no “ax to grim],’’ far would it be from hi to to be ho familiar, lie reminds us of some county p ilitiei am. during an electioneering campaign, shaking bands with everybody, lapping and oatoxsing little, dirty chilJicn, prais ing the women, but alter the election is over, ho never notices thorn at all. Ah! Mr. Hayes; don’t lie dread the turn ol the approaching Congressional grind stone 1! In last, Thursday's Homo Courier, wo find the Valedictory of John 11ix Hass, E*q.. aho has for some time so well flllo I thoehair of associate Editor of that long established and sterling journal; and also the Salutatory of Colonel William A. Shorter, w ho takes his place. Colonel Shorter mounts the editorial tripod with an easy grace, and we most heartily welcome him into the editorial fraternity- He is a gentleman of lino literary attainments, who has made his mark in the legal prole don, and we predict for him a brilliant career as a journalist. His numerous friends in Georgia and Alabama, will always be do lighted to peruse the Courier now (h it his facile pen will he employed in it-' sound Democratic utterances. The Savannah Xnrs speaking of the New Constitution, closes a lengthy edi torial of ability, which we heartily com mend to (he earnest consideration of our readers, in these words: “Its rejection at the polls would reflect lasting discredit, upon our people. It would he saying plainly to the world that, after all the complaint regarding the in famy of. arpot-bug rule, and the injustice which such rule worked upon the cith-v n of this State, yet wo were forced to con fess that they were more capable ol giving us a good government than were men who had long since made themselves reputations, not only us leading minds in the State, but in the entire South Such a confession would lie humiliating in the extreme, and would inure to our lasting shame. “ A His h-tened Press. For years in the past, we have enter tained the belief that the press next to the pulpit, weilded a power for good or evil incalculable in its extent. T. o morals of a community may be very cor rectly determined by the character of the newspapers circulating within its In umls. If the literature he light and chaffy, so arc the morals of the people; it’ it be profane and vulgar, so again are the people; if it be high toned, pure and elevating, so are the people refined and moral. Many people in subscribing fora paper never tor a moment look at these points, nor give them a moiueut’ajeonsuleration. The ore main idea is a paper; and they never consider its character, nor the in fluence it is to exert upon the family readers. This is all wrong. A man should scrutinize the ohu actor of a paper, just as much as ho would that, of an in dividual, before introducing hint into ! i family circle. For would you brit i: . the sacred precincts of your home, an, who would habitually use profane and 1 vulgar language before your with a : 1 : children? or that would utter teachings, either by precept or example, that would tend to load your family into erroneous paths of morality or religion? \vhut more or less do many of the tiewspap.-t of the present day? Many of them con tain much, calculated to make a modc.-t aad refined female blush, and lay tln ground-work of dissolute morals in our ohildten. . We—ail men—ate le.-pon-i! ].-, net only to our Maker, but t> our e.-u-ory. our families, for the influences we I in to bear upon those with win mw. . ■ , i ate or cotumunica: - in any manner. The i press is fearfully responsible in tIT. re spect, and should, therefore, bo very jealous and circumspect in its advocacy of those principle* of our to oa’ity and religion, tending to tDo elevation of its readers in a oon-i-tent and pure lifo. Morality has only one foun.lati n -the moral law as promulga t'd in tin- Ten Commandment,s by Jehovah to Mo.-es upon Sinai's burning I row. Any other foundation upon which to pr.-di ate a system of morality, is vain and unin fluential, and woith nothing, it 1110-1 he founded upon and pressed homo upon the conscience* of men, upon the - t rtt and rigid principles of religion, and in ; reference, immediately and ultimately, to our responsibility to our Creator. This; is as much the duty of the secular prc. x j us the ministry, or religious press. Upon this subji el the New York ,S 'an, very opportunely an ! wi.-dy .-ays: “Our j journal* fear ,0 touch religious questions, lest they shall tir up aiiiuir-oiio- which 1 will I'O-aet to their damage.

President Hayes. Mr. Hayes lie I teen swinging mound the circle pretty extensively recently, f 1 what purpose can only he surmised. lie knows full Well the precarious ten urohy which ho holds oili.v. and it ha been his steady aim since his ftundul nt inductipu into it, to curvy favor with sec.ions of (be nation, whether by guile or strict inlogiity -bis ciafiinosis so great it is impossiblo to determine. But Mr. Ilayes docs not lie upon a I- I ol’rosos devoi lof thorns- He undouhte.ily has many “a thorn in the hto hufl'et'' him, among wh.eh may he mentioned llm following as taken limn the Dnthalo Cumin-, which thus tersely sets ir forth: ‘ Mr. Hayes should be warned in time lest he fall in the clutches of the law. Hardly six months in power, lie is already threaten,d with imprisonment, line and di,-qualification for cilice. T his is even worse than the fate that was at one time hanging over the head oh Andrew John son; for llu: latter was threatened only with icmoval and disquaiilieutiuii to hold Federal offices, while Mi. 11 a\os seems to be in imminent- peril oh losing his personal liberty. The crime with which he is charged is intimidation. It is alleged that llutheriord Ik Hayes conspired with one John Sherman to threaten or in tin, 1 ate one Alonzo B. Cornell, a citizen of the United States, in the free exercise of his right, to hold and enjoy the position of chairman of the Uo publican Bi„te Committee ol New York, a tight and privilege secured to him by the constitution and l..\vs of the United ■ Slates. “This grave charge, which, il sustained would expose Mr. Hayes to a fine of not more than live thousand dollars and im prisonment for not more Ih.nl ten years, besides disqualification to hold office un der the general tioverument, is deliber ately made by tlie Buffalo Coiumcn i tl, ' one of the foremost Republican journals ol the State,” And, concerning which the St. Louis Times says: “The partisans of Mr. Hayes will be unable to disguise the ugly fact that the action, or non-action, of the Administra tion in the Cornell ease ixa com; lote and cowardly surrender, on utter and i; glo rious back down.” Says Mr- Hayes: “My Sou shorn policy is good tor the Southern people, an-! good ! for the IT.ion, amt pleasant to behold, and God doth know that when y- u taste its swceetiiess, yo shall be a- gods.” So said an old tell >w, long time u,_,i to a woman in a beautiful garden. She put mull her hand, yielded to the seductive I flattery, when indeed she saw the bait 1 pleasant to the eyes, and calculated to 1 make one wise; but, lo! it, was as worm wood and gall, and the nakedm-- of the twain wasdiscov. n and, and the aihiir ended in snrov, p ibulati.in and anguish, the ! effects of which permeates a ; classes ol ! society, and clings to the latest posterity.

YV ho has riot heard ef\V-i.le Hampton? Hi name has become a household word I in the nation, and of world-wide roputa : ti- ti. Little, however, do the people know the great secret of the magic there is in If- name. The ground wrk of his y rent tit: sand wiile-spteud p pularity wan 1 laid i-y Li Chl'i-lian mother in the early i training of her child, by en-tuinping in j dciibly ujton his infantile mind, principles ol a living character, which has developed j the greatest man now upon the American I continent. j Mrs. Martin, of Columbia, S. 0., who has known hi u from boyhood, thus writes to the Nashville OhrUtiuu Advocate : “ .V ho has not heard of Wade Ilarnp ! ton, a- General in to, Southern (Jonfcd | crate unity, and, more recently, a-Gov ernor of the Mute of Mouth Carolina? A man whom nil have so delighted to honor that by this time, as in the ea.-e of the great and go and Ari tides, some ar tired of Ik tiring dim called The Ju-t.’ Yet this title, if not a greater, in conneetion with our Hampton, we in South farolma have been uncustomed to hear applied to him almost from his boyhood, for, if mu. ‘The Ju.it,' lie has always been entitled ‘The Uuod," an even more largely sig nificant appellation. “Yes, magic seemed the power of that name to rouse a prostrate people, and when aroused to a degrea that searuely brooked control, to calm them us oil the ' troubled waters calm-. One word from Hampton, ami ten thousand thou and | sabers would have leaped from their scab [hards, un! war might hive been again | inaugurated, instead of peace, blessed peace. But what a weight of respond I bi'ity, in all that trying time, must have pressed upon that lore must man, the rep ii-scntative and leader, Hampton! A I stinin upon soul, mind and body, that none can know who did not watch, day in and day out, the process of the political re.loti ption of Mouth Carolina. Truly .lid our leader n oil ‘the wi-dom of the serpent and the harmles no s of the dove,’ and God, in whom he trusted, and to whom he prayed, gave him both. “\\ hen I beheld him pi— through itu eonsuui'"!, this 1.-ot fiery ordeal of Ins life, I could n ‘i but roverPto the time 1 knew him in the long ago, when, as a mere hoy, with his brothers and si.-ter t, one evening at their home, ‘.Millwood,’ 1 1 heard his pious mother read aloud to; them the Bible narrative of the ‘Three! He hr. w Children,' making, as I recollect, | her annotations on the lesson- The father j ot these children was called by duty fro- j .pruitly-from homo, but the mother, the! tJuristinn mother, olii-.-i ,ted in Ids absotr-e as prie less of her family, at: 1 we cat! ! trace ‘the unfeigned faith' in one good ! G. vernor to that w hich ‘dw. It (ir. t in his ; grandmoth. rand Ii s mo 1 her.’ By these he was carefully in true!ed ill (lie great : Bible truths, w iiicli arc the best and only sure foundation for high moral cxeeilcnce. 1 Maid one to Col. Hampton, the Governor's ; father, w hen the Governor was quite a youth, ‘How does it come about that God hie'scs you with such a soil as Wade?' With eharacteri-tie modesty Col. Hamp ton replied, '1 expect 1 had very little to , do in making him such as he is, but you must remember lie had a pious mother. , A S.viitdle. A great deal has I icon said in the papers 1 about Indian wars in tin- north west, and ; especially about Gen. 110-.vard’s pursuit of the "-•• ea '<• 1" Indian Chief Joseph. The New York /A rahl Collies to the ; front with this bit of information upon , this subject, when it says, i. “would l-e excellent if General Howard were really j looking for Joseph. But ho is engaged; in an enterprise of a different kind, as we , think it our duty now to inform the ; public, which has been too long misled on i the subject. We doubt, if there i- any such man as Joseph, and we venture to ■ay that General Howard could not,even if he w ould, make oath to the existence of this Indian Mrs. Harris. There is no competent proof ol his existence.” But “as for Gen. Howard, he is engaged in an interesting exploration of the interior of ! the continent, lie is not Tool ing for a i man,’ as the street boys say; lie is making a special 11 ward survey of s,.me parallel i or another, and as the last besotted Con ! [ guess tailed to make an appropriation for ’ this -.vt rk Howard ingeniously got up a ! sham Indian war and a pretended Chief I Joseph. It appears that llw-urd's scientific Operations have been a good j deal interrupted by Indians, who, w ith an aversion to science for which they are ; notorious, have stolen his horses, iuter • ruptod his needed sleep and robbed bis j party of the,r spare whiskey. And for all | these sufferings Howard now finds hint self reviled as a failure oy a public which supposed that he was pursuing the Indians when, in fact, they were pursuing I him. It'this thing goes oil much longer : the Cause of science will require that some ; one shall a Ivertise in the personaleoluiuii of the Herald, not for Joseph, but tor liowaid.” And thus, to give i.i.l and ccuifort to 1 this mat: Howard of Freedman's Bureau notoriety, ami once a “pro-i lent or some- I thing of a colored cim-'ge, whose walls toll down like those cl llrdo j moo ■ factory,” the country has to bo swindled 1 by the action of a fraudulent President in I sustaining or sending out this ra-cully i Howard on an exploring expedition, ! under the fraudulent guise of searching 1 for a veritable Indian, which exists only as a phantom. Verily this is an age of fraud, swindle and corruption. Will not Congress look into this matter, and if the //■ rah/ i correct in the above, bring the parties in plicated in the fraud to justice for tho imposition thus sought to be ' palmed off upon the country? Tiie Presidency to be Abolished. Mutation is written indelibly upon everything earthly. Nature with all its paraphernalia, general an 1 specific, is not the same one day with another- Nations, kingdoms, empire* and -ill human gov ernments lose their sameness amid the j ev. r-varying changes of the caprices and lustful desires of men. The government of our fathers in lhi- [ “land of the free and hum sof the brave, | has very j-> rceptibly lost its pristine glory, and that we now have, is not that for 1 ivki li our fathers fought and bled. An 1 ; now we find the last relic of our ancient [ glory about to be swept away to gratify , the carnal desires of base politicians. For j the A’- .as ami Courier lias this for us to reflect upon, extorting from us the ill- ! quiiy, whither are we drifting? “Several mim.rously signed memorials ' will b. jo "--euted to Coiiere-s next : month pro,:o ing amendment* to the ; Constitution abolishing the ITv. i -y, j an executive 00; null of State or Cabinet | tube substituted therefor, to be composed of the seven secretaries without any i |-crier officer, all to have authority; that ! is simply strike out the Pro.-i 1. m ui-1 au- I thorize the eeretaiiei to have the -x cu ! tion of all the laws and gcnc.al up r | vision of the government, four ot tin council to be elected by the il-mso and j three by the Senate, from members of; I their respective Houses, for tw • y ars, ! one or all to be removed at. ary time by : tiie House electing them, and all to have the rights of both Houses. I low extensive such a desire prevail.- j as expressed in the above for aboasliing 1 the Presidency, we are not apprised; yet j in the above the leaven is seen, and there j is no telling how soon tho who!.: lump; will he leavened. The people of our j Federal Union is so di. ,pasted at the pres 1 ent status of affairs, that they are ready j now to try almost any h rm of govcniuKii: , than the one we now h ive.
