His reticence and careful avoidance of all reference to the civcumstaucea of liis incoming have l>eeii remarked. The position he assume*, aa stated, is that' his legal title ta perfect, and that he had nothing to do with anything back of the settlement of tho le gaf title by" Congress, the only power that could dechire a fi :d decision, he i idy cla.m> to hold ns a sort of military necessity installed nud-r the forms of law. This position accords with what Mr. ll;i\es said tiie : day after his election, when he thonght” bis chance gone, with Puritan morals, with the prevailing Republican doc trine that anything is right which detents a Democrat. It is t*ie doc trine so much discussed and so much condemned in ethics, that the end ju-tifies the mes It is only necessary to look hack to the history of the Republican party to find everywhere the Puritan clement asserting the principle that tin* end justifies the means. It started in New E cjan.l and it took hold of the N«*w England element everywhere. Its special form was the higher law doc trine, above law and wonstitnlion. ignoring all barriers and looking only to the eml in view. It is not an un fitting sequel to a party which had birth and attained success on that principle, that it should expire in con- teinnt, through its assertion Mr. Haves, by descent, education, h bits of tbougiit, i8 Puritan. lie v.as not, however, willing, precisely, to win by foul means. “He would have that whi-h do” and “vet u-onhl not wroiv win.” He would accept but not do. lie would allow others to use the means whilst lie was the righteous end in view which J-wt/ried, but drd not do »■*- • , °"g- He a>lo« od Kil- cause t..ere id no , j higher p<^wer to decide. f His char* acier is nut wasni <1 l.y the process.

It was essential to the “ poor colored man” that lie should succeed.

Of • lmoii, there have been deposited in the Coosa at Cartersyille 10,000; in the Oconee at railroad mossing 20,000; in the Sav. ninth 5,0**0; ii the Ogeechec 7,500 and in the Clist- tahoochae at Norcro; s 7,500 Gen. Cook has recently atldr«*s-*«i Baird asking that a deposit be made at Hawkinsvillu ami in the Flint, Rey nolds and Montezuma, which will be done an early day. In this matter, as in all others where the interests of his constituents are concer. ed, the General has hit* weather eye wide j open, and will see that they get their full share of everything good that is | going. While on this subjet, I desire to call attention to the fact that to our immediate representative, Mr. Blount, is a large measure of the credit due lor inaugurating this measure for stocking Georgia waters with fish. Being on the appropriations commit tee he could ami did work faithfully and successfully in getting the nccos* sary funds set apart for carrying out the measure. “ XTawayv Spioy. Roliablo."

It is easy to sec how Mr. Hayes justifies his ac ceptance, and how he justifies his holding. His position, however, is indefensible in morals and incompati ble witli a nice sense of honor. Every mail has to decide these questions lor himself, and, « Where ye feel yonr honor grin, I.et that aye bo your border,” is a law by which history tries men, however in the present t}iey.. may balance" wrong with good deeds. There is no principle whatever on which Mr. Hayes’ position can be justified. lie was called upon to de* ei !e lor himself at.d not for his parly. He decided wrong.
