A Connecticut deluge last month
swept away property to the amount of
81,000,000.
The distribution of silver coin con
tinues at the IJ. S. Treasury without
check at the rate of a quarter of a mil
lion a week, or about twelve millions a
year.
Twenty-three States have Democratic
Governors. There is a Democratic ma
jority in the House. The Senate is
nearly equally divided, and in two years
will be controlled by the Democrats.—
There is a white majority of more than
a million Democrats in the United
an absolute majority of a
quarter of a million. A Republican
who was not elected President, holds
the office through fraud. A hundred
thousand Republicans hold the minor
Federal offices through the same fraud.
This is the political situation iu a nut
shell,.and it is well to remember the
leading facts—A. Y. Sun.
The Philadelphia Press gives vent to
its feelings in the following style : “ If
such baseness as that of Wade Hamp
ton is to be tolerated, wo would rather
welcome another war to maintain the
Eupremrcy of the Government over the
South and the system which would turn
those States into obedient Territories.
The time ha; come for a declared pol
icy, and President Hayes is the man to
When everything is of
fered to men like Wade Hampton and
Butcher Butler, whose hands are red
with the blood of our people and when
they reject the proffers of a generous
Government, let the Government, in
its new Administration, failing to se
cure protection to the Republican peo>
pie of South. Carolina, take the case
into his own hands, and assert itself by
all the powers of the Constitution of
the United States.”

Party—Etc., etc.
Washington, D. C. April 2,1877.
Editor Calhoun dimes :
“1 hce must keep thy note,” said one
Quaker when lending money to anoth
er—“thee must keep thy note, lest thee
forget how much thee owes me and
when to pay it.” Something of this
guileless simplicity shines in the acts
of “Governor” Chamberlain. Ha says
to the President that he will abide by
anything the President dictates. To
the reporter and interviewer he says
that he has placed his cse unreserved
ly in the hands of the President and
asks no pledges. Whether this child
like innocent trust will lead Chamber
lain to the vacancy in the Supreme
Court, to the Senate, to a Foreign mis/
sion, or to the penitentiary, depends on
the President who takes from the “Gov
ernor” his usurped office, and upon
Governor Hampton who gets his own.
The attention to Hampton, by the way,,
has been the greatest ovation here since
18G5. He is literally the hero of the
hour, so general is the belief in the
justice of 1 is cause and the honesty of
his intentions, and so great the admira
tion for the skill and moderation with
which he has conducted affairs in his
State.
South Carolina disposed of, as it vir
tually is, only the muddle in Louisiana
remains. The President may clear this
up by a prompt removal of troops or
may leave it to settle itself. It will
settle itself by July, for the a"my ap
propriation expires then, and the Pres
ident will have no money to support
troops in Louisiana or elsewhere. The
House of course will vote no mow
funds for the army while it is unconsti-'
tutionally employed in subverting the
rights of a State. The general opin
ion is that the President will take
prompt action as soon as the commission
reports. This commission, by the way,
leaves to mrrow for New Orleans. —
Mr. Evarts is preparing instructions for
it, which is ominous of delay if the
commissioners stop to read them. The
name of the party hero who has proba
bly already commenced to write up
the commissioner’s report is not given,
but it will be ready for them to sign
v.hcn they get hack.
The President dees not conceal his
anxiety to revive the Whig party in
the South, and make use of it for the
purpose of electing a ITayes Speaker of
the House in June. Not only through
his friends, but in conversation, he ex
plains the supposed heuefits to the
country of such a revivu'. The proj
ect of giving to Africa a large and en
terprising population by arousing the
mummies iu her borders would indicate
a mild kind of lunacy oatnpared to j
this.
VV bile greater questions a*-e pending,
there is much local interest felt in the
rules which are to govern new appoint
merits to office here, and promotions
among those already appointed. The
| pressure for even the clerkshirs is very
; great, and for Bureau officers is large
in propot tion. There i3 a growing im
; pression that changes will be made in
the more impoitact offices in tlie Treas
ury and Interior Departments regard
, less of any system of civil service tc
-1 form, and peihaps in the Post Office
• Department. The places of importance
iu the War and Navy Departments are
filled by officers in those branches of
tfie service, and changes are not made
by political influences.
Yours truly, Reno.
Hayes on the Sonth—Letter Irom
Gov. Vance.
Raleigh, March 27. Editors
Chronicle and Constitutionalist: —Dear
Sirs —Your letter has been received,
! asking my views’as to the position the
; Southern Democracy should occupy to
i wards Mr. Hayes, and whether they
should apply for or held office under his
administration, etc.
Briefly and simply, theu : In every
i thing, except the mere forms of law, I
regard Mr. Hayes as a usurper. By
maintaining armed intervention in
States recently declared by the com
mission, under which he claims to be
so sovereign, that no act of theirs could
be impeached or even inquired into,
though tainted by a fraud that would
have avoided any other human transac
tion, in any court iu Christendom, he is
flagrantly defying the Constitution of
his country. Every day that United
States troops are kept in and about the
State Hon es of South Carolina and
Louisiana by Mr. Hayes’ order, he is
guilty of crucifying the Constitution
afresh and putting it to open shame.—
And all men who hold office under him
of political -iguificance, are holding his
garments whilst liberty is bayonetted to
death. The plea of uniting with evil
doers for the purpose of controlling
them is as contemptible as it is stale
It lost its efficacy in the service of ren
egade native Sou herners, who joined
the Radicals in time to participate in
the reconstruction era of plunder.
The duty of the Southern Democrats
as well as of the Northern Democrats,
and of Demoirats and friends of Con
stitutional liberty every where, is to
wage open war against Mr. Hayes and
all other men who disregard the plain
provisions of that great charter of. the
rights of the States and of the people.
Especially is it the duty of the Democ
racy to see that not another do lar is
voted to the support of the army until
guarantees are given that it shall no
longer be used to destroy the States, and
shear them of their just powers.
I see no objection to Democrats fill
ing subordinate positions to which no
political significance is attached, except
in so far as the sense of obligation to
the appointing power may weaken the
blows which an honest man should al
ways be ready to strike the enemies of
his country’s honor and welfare.
Yours respectfully,
Z B. Vance.
Gcu. Robert E. Lee's Sword—Let
ter lrom Gen. Grant,
The Bangor (Me.) Whig recently
stated that at the time of Gen. Robert
E, Lee’s surrender ho came to the spot
designated “wearing a splendid testi- 1
monial sword that had been presented
to him, and doubtless intending that the
weapon should b r come the historic em
blem of the lost cause at the national
Capital. Gen. Grant prevented this by
gracefully waiving the surrender of the
sword of his vanquished foe, and hasti
ly penciling the terms he demanded
passed the memorand un to Lee, who
became visibly affected with emotion on
perceiving the generosity with which
all the officers of his command were to
be treated by their conqueror.” The
accuracy of this statement has been de
nied by a communication printed in the
Richmond (Va.) Dispatch, and the
Whig substantiates it by the following
letter from Gen. Grant;
Washington, D. C., Mar. 23, 1877.
—C. A. Boutede , Esq., Bangor : The
Bangor Whig and Courier’s account is
strictly correct except in this : Nothing
was said about swords, side-arms, bag
gage, 01 private horses until I wrote
the tern of surrender, in which I gave
them, at which Gen. Lee was much af
fected and said these terms would have
a good effect upon his army.
lie had on apparently an entirely
new uniform and a magnificent sword —
such as is not usually worn in the field
—and it ceitainly left the impression
that the expectation was to surrender
it.
Nothing was said in the preliminary
conversation to warrant the assumption
that anything more was to be granted
to the rebel army than that they were
to he permitted to return to their homes
on lay : ng down their arms, and not to
be molested in their persons so long as
they remained there and obeyed the
laws in force thereat. U S. Grant.

The New York Sun says ITayes and
his liaud ,I lent concern have broken all
the pledges they made n advance of
coming into office They show them-'
selves utterly unworthy of credit, and
no matter what they may do hereafter
iu regard to South Carolina and Louis

necessities, and not yielded by any good
faith to th 3 engagements which they
volunteered when it was easy to have
prevented Ilayes’ inauguration.

Gov. Drew’s Opinion of the
Hayes Poliey.
Governor Drew, of Florida, while in
New York lust week, was interviewed
by a reporter of the Herald, who re
ports him as saying :
“If Mr. Hayes carries out the South
ern policy foreshadowed when he was
inaugurated, tnc people of Florida will
be satisfied and offer no factious oppo
site n. I speak of Republicans and
Democrats—all classes of people. 1
know the feeling that prevails among
leading Democrats, and they say that if
the President arries out what he has
promised—namely, to leave the people
to select their own State government—
he will meet with no opposition as far
as they are concerned. This I have
told President Hayes.” Of the Louis
iana commission he thought that “if
the President had taken matters more
in his own hands respecting Louisiana
it would have given more general satis
faction. My reason for this belief i9
that the question ar stake, for many rea
sons, ?L .uld be settled forthwith, and
that delay is dangerous. It keeps the
two States, while decision is pending,
in a condition of disquietude, and
brings business to a stand still. The
interest of the planters is notably af
fected People have not the courage to
embark in new ventures of any kind
when outbreaks are possible at any mo
merit Many other reasons might be
assigned, but it is unnecessary to go in
to them now.”
