—Tbe Macon Telegraph in a well
written editorial, “The Peril* of the
Present,’’ expresses tbo Southern
view of the Presidential situation.
Let u» quota from it: “Mach has
been said and written abont the
baneful influence which Roacoe
Conkiing wonld exert over the In
coming administration. Yet there
.la a deeper shadow lurking ever
the pathway of President Arthur.
It is lira ominous presence of D. S.
Grant, which seems to haunt him
*Uko a bird of evil’ at every step
mud turn he make*. No wonder
the new President looks troubled
and careworn. • • • It is s fact
beyond controversy that Gen. Grant
la tho most dangerous person to the
liberties of tho people, and tbe
hovent administration of the gov
ernment in the Union to-day. Em
inently so, because he is Ihe embodi
ment of the idea of Cnsariam.'

NASttviLLX. September 2S.—It Is
stated upou tbe authority of inti
mate friends of Secretary Blaine
fhAlbuhaepo-ilively determined ;o
leave tbo Cabinet at once, and will
send hb resignation to I’reaidcnt
Arthur in a few da-a, and will
probably not return to Washington
fur some time. It Is said that Sec
retary Blaine baa no desire to re
main in the Cabinet, and that the
affairs of the State Department and
routine ofhb duties now palufi to
him In view of hi* intimate rela
tion! with the late Pre-idem. There
b nothing, so it b raid, Secretary
Blaine bolds, which require* hi-
continuance at the bead of the State
Department. All its affiara are in
such a state that a new man . oan
taka hold wlthoutany difficulty or
embhrrs'sment. Those who claim
to know Secretary Blaine’s Inten
tions, say be expect* President Ar
thur to conJlittit* a new Cabinet,
and really think* be ought to do to.
Secretary Blaine baa put a atop to
:!:e turthe.' conMruction of tbo
the fine residence ho was buiMing,-
and the site and building materials
nrc for sale, which looks like ba
does not expect to lire in Washing
ton in the future.
