What is Expected from Arthur and his Ad

From the Nt-w. tnd= tou"rier': corre.;ionl

WAsHiNTrUN, Saturdiay. Septem
ber 24.-Within one short week
great change has come over the
American nation. In my last I fore
shadowed its character ; in this I re
cord the fact that it has taken place
It appeared plainly to me a monti
ago that it was inevitable. In thi
brief week a President has died, beet
brought back to the Capital in state
viewed by hundreds of thousands o
people, carried off agai o to his ol(
home, and there he will be burie<
on Monday in his own native mold
while a new President has taken thi
oath of office, indicated his policy an
actively assumed the direction of thi
Government.
This had been a great week for th,
country one fraught with great con
cerns. How much for good and hov
much for evil remains to be seen. Th,
administration of Garfield has ended
It was brief and we can hardly meas
ure it accurately in the grief at hi
untimely death. We cake up thi
new where the old left off so sudden
ly and terribly. There is somethin:
in the circumstances attending th<
succession of Chester A. Arthur t<
the Presidency which will cast
shadow upon his administration th
he will find great difficulty in shak
ing off. Indeed, it is exceedingi,
doubtful whether he will ever succeec
in doing so. The task is too muel
for an ordinary man, and Chester A
Arthur is
A VERY ORDINARY MAN.
Even should he feel the desire t<
follow in the footsteps of reform wbicl
bear the imprint of the dead man'
shoes he now wears, the faction of :
part; of which he is now the officia
head will not permit him. No on,
will doubt the motives of Mr. Arthur
the purity of his intentions as ex
pressed in his brief inaugural address
or 'his profound sorrow at that gravi
necessjty which ealled him into office
These are within the capacity of or
dioary men, and Chester A. Arthu:
is a very ordinary man. If he coulc
be left to follow the impulses whicl
now move him Mr. Arthur migh
serve his country moderately well
as did President Hayes, and go ou
. with a minimum of obloquy and e
maximum of contempt. Between th<
succession of Hayes and the succes
sion' of Arthur there are many fini
points in common. Hayes came it
by rape, Arthur by violence. Ii
both cases however, the deed wa:
*done by other men. Hayes was th<
beneficiary of fraud, and Arthur is th<
beneficiary of violence. Hayes wat
-an ordinary man and Arthur is a vera
ordinary man. Hayes was cordialla
bat;ed upon his assumption of powe:
bebiause he was the beneficiary of frand
of which, however, he was entirely in
noeent; Arthur is cordially hated
because he came in by violence and he
is -also hated because of himself.
Hayes was harmless, and the oleagin
ous innocende of his administratior
secured the country from harm and
'himself- from anything more serioum
~than.a milder sort of ridicule. There
*was one particular difference betweer
the, feeling of dislike of these tw<
aien by the people which in esti
miting the- probable character of the
sdineistration :of Chester A. Arthui
must:-not be lost sight of,. for the for
mer was hated by the Democratic
party and only because he was the
bumble instrument through whielt
they' were defrauded of their right tc
the Presidency. On the other band
Mr. Arthur is hated by a formidable
faction of his own party, not onl3
because he got into power over the
dead body- of their leader, but because
he is the representative of a different
eetof men and a different policy. Be.
sides this difference, there is still
another which will enter largely intc
the comparison: Hayes was voted
for as a candidate for the Presidency,
and came in bound by every obliga.
tion to his party, expressed and im
plied, to faithfully carry out its
wishes.
ARTHUR IS AN ACCIDENT,
bound by no obligation save loyalty to
his friends, to gain whose support he
was -placed upon the Presidential
ticket. If be should simply carry cut
the tenets of the party, as understood
by those friends. it would be only
whit-an ordinary man would probably
do. And Chester A. Arthur is a
very ordinary man. Tax your mem
ory with that. Having come by ae
cident he is bound by no moral ties
save loyalty to the general interests of
the Country. In the eyes of the
wing of the Republican party Mr.
Arthur represents, loyalty to party is
loyalty to the country. They know
no other patriotism. In one respect
the unhampered position of President
Arthur places him in an attitude of
freedom unknown to Presidents elected
by the people. He is absolutely un
trammelled in the start, and may in
augurate such a policy as best corm
ports with statesmanship, wisdom and
patriotism, regardless of his party fac
tions. If he were an extraordinary
man like Garfield or Lincoln he would
so act. But Arthur is only an or
dinary man. The inference is plain:
Being an ordinary man he will do as
ordinary men do. Being simply a
politician of a pessimist school of
politics, it is too much to expect the
qualities and results of the states.
man.
Mr. Arthur may be compared with
his immediate predecessor in two
things only: he is a gentleman and
he is an honest man. These are
much, for they imply dignity com
mensurate with high office, and an
honest endeavor to administer it faith
fully. if Mr. Arthur were more thau

It is too much to expect a continuanc
of THE POLICY OF REFORM
inaugurated by President Garfield and
crystalized in his Cabinet. Thos<
who expert it will be disappointed. i
know of no better illustration of the
character of the coming Administra
tion than that impressive scene upot
the lawn at Elbercu the day afte:
President Garfield died. The faail
liar conferences and association be
tween Grant and the newly-mad<
President, their close communion and
warm personal regard, as they walked
about the lawn under the shadow o
the house of mourning, was enough t:
suggest the future. This evidently
did not occur to me alone, as I coulk
plainly see in the faces and hear it
the tones of the crowd. There wa:
the new Administration before us in a
single picture, which a smart pho
tographer might have sold tw<
for a quarter. There was Arthur
Stalwart, and there was Grant. Wha
else was necessary ' Now ther
I would bave been nothing in this, bu
{ for the history which lay behind it
This history is familiar to every mat
in the country, for it is a very recen
one and needs no varnish to renew it:
freshness. The Arthur Administra
tion means Grant, means Grantism
and Grantism means spoils. Ther<
is the picture. That is the way it
f looked in essence at Elberon. Tha
is the way it looks in the abstrac
from Washington to-day. Is ther
anything in the record of Chester A
Arthur to give the lie to such an in
ference ? Perhaps you could appre
ciate it better if you coild view th4
picture from this point- If you coult
see the
HAPPY FACES Of THE STALWARTS
beaming through the outward forma
of mourning, if you could hear thi
sneering words of the Grant crowd
hanging about the corridors, if yot
could realize the departmental ani
mosities which are to be satisfied
then you might understand th<
changes which are in store for us
IThe following from the Stalwart orgar
in this city is the first faint expres
Ision of Stalwart ideas, and grate
harshly on the ear and offends the eyc
with the dead body of Garfield lying ir
the rotunda of the Capitol:
WANTED, THE NAMES Of
THE PEMOCRATIC clerks in th<
Postoffice Department appointed sine*
the present Republican Adnministra
tion came into power. Address confi
dentially; GRAND BOUNCE, Re
publican office.
.The clamor for spoils sets in ove1
the dead b>ody. It comes from every
Idepartment and from every section oi
the country. The Graut and Conk
lhng crowd raise their glad eyes to
ward the new President and demand
with confidence, their share of tb
raiment of the dead man lying in th
rotunda of the Capitol. What wil]
the answer be ? If it. were such a
man as Garfield, we know wha< it
would be; but Arthur is a very or
dinary man. The picture on the
sward at Elberog was the index ol
what was and is to come In Arthur.
Grant will live over again. If he has
gained wisdom by experience he wilh
see to it that he advise better than he
executed. Here in Washington this
is not anticipated. For a time all will
go weil, but;bhe ordinary man will not
rise above ordinary things.
There is something severely comi
eal in the gathering of the Stalwarts
about the throne. Star Route
walks erect upon the streets -si
and joins the throng from his long
seclusion. Belkuap comes forth and
promenades arm in arm with Grant.
Dorsey hurries from his sheep in
Colorado to gather political wool in
Washington. Aloiig with hundreds
of others who need whitewashing they
press forward to the new Stalwart star
made President by a Stalwart assassin.
'Will they become part and parcel of
the things to come? Well, Chester
A. Arthur is but an ordinary man.
THE BICYCLE INVESTIGATION.
The hearing in the bicycle case was
continued yesterday, before Referee
E. L. Parris. Only one witness, a
stable keeper of Mount Vernon, was
examined in behalf of the bicyclers.
He said he had kept a stable for
many years, and had reared and
driven many horses in that time.
'While driving horses he had frequent
ly met bicycles, but had never known
a horse to be frightened by them.
Iorses were much more apt to be
frightened by barking dogs, steam en
gines, and other objects.
The counscl for the bicyclers will
apply to Justice Lawrence for a com
mission to take testimony in Boston
and Philadelphia. -New York 8un,

Publication Day Changed.
The HERALD has from its first issu
been published on Tuesday morning o
each week. and we dislike now to mak
change from that day, but we feel th
necessity of doing so. Monday is th
busiest and most important day of th
week, meetings are generally held and
everything that can possibly take placI
occurs on that day, hence we are al
ways pressed with work and crowde<
to death to get the paper ready fo
press on Tuesday. We think, therefore
that a change of publication to Thurs.
day morning will be a decided advan
tage, not only to the pnblisher but tc
the reader, and will consequently iSsul
the HERALD next week and from tha
time hereafter on Thursday morning.
The Prohibition Convention
zet in Col; nibia the 27th ant
28th ultirno. The attendance wai
not large, a majority of the Coun
ties sending no representatives
Dr. James H. Carlisle, of Spartan
burg, presided. On the first day i
resolution was offered to memorial
ize the Legislature to pass a probi
bition law. Rev. Mir. Tillinghast
of Columbia, opposed the resoilu
tion. He said a majority of th<
people of the State did not wan
such a law ; they were not read~
for it ;they must be e.ducated u~
to it. He favored an amendmen
prohibiting the sale in towns of no
less than five hundred inhabita.nts
Mr. Div ver, of Anderson, agreei
with Mr. Tillinghast. except as t<
the proposed amendment. He be
lieved that prohibition should b<
wrought out by the different incor
porated towps through their loca
option laws. Col. Edwards, o
Darlington, advised caution in th<
matter.
The meeting then ad]journed t<
the 28th.
The second day's proceeding:
were of little interest. The attend
ance was very small, not over tw<
dozen, the majority of these be
ing young men. Resolutions wat
adopted, among them one directing
the Executive Committee to mec
morialize the Legislature to pro
hibit the sale of liquor in towvns o
less than five hundred inhabitants
In other respects, there were fl(
recommendations as to a change it.
the present liquor law.
Guiteau 's Line of defense, it ih
hinted, will be that the Presideni
was not killed by his bullet, but bj
malpractice of the doctors. Fail
ing in that he will fall back on th<
insanity dodge. The impressior
prevails that the government wil:
probably be as anxious to prov<
him insar;e as the defense will be
for this reason : if he be proved in
sane when he committed the deed
the assassination will have no sig.
nificance-it would be simply an
accident, like death from a railroad
collision ;but if it be proved that
the President of the United States
was shot down in broad daylight
by a sane man, what more security
is there to the President of this
Republic than to the Czar of de*
spotic R assia ?
There. are some very delicate
questions in connection with this
assassination, besides the question
of jurisdiction.
There is nothing unusual in the
fact that Arthur is an ordinary
man: Vice-Presidents are nearly
always so. They are not nominated
on the ground of any ability or fit
ness they possess, but simply for
the purpose of a successful camn
paign. The last three Vice-Presi
dents were from New York, a cir
cumstance owing entirely to the
fact that New York is a doubtful
State, and giving her the second
place on the ticket makes her put
forth all her efforts for its election.
Arthur is certainly an abler man
than Schunyler Colfax, or than Hen
ry Wilson was, or Win. A. Wheeler,
his immediate predecessors.
A Washingtou Scare.
A young man named Baylev. a
clerk in one of ti, various govern
wont oflices abSont \V;shington,
mad( a1 affidavit at p:liee head
quatrtr:i the 2tth that on the pre
vious night he heard two men talk
ing under his window about assas
sinating President Arthur. He
swears that one said he would kill
the President within a month ; the
other said, " Will you swear to it."
His reply was. "Yes. I will"-and
t;.eu he took an oath. A third man
was, stardin by. Bay!ey got up
out of his bed and opened the shut
ters the three then ran oti.
We would like to know what Mr.
Bayley had for supper that night.
Suall Farms at the South.
The Census repoits show some
f great changes in the industrial con
dition of the South in the past
twenty years, especially in the sub
division of plan tations. The fol
lowing table shows the number of
farms in South Carolina in 1860
and in 1880, and by whom they
were cultivated in the latter year,

The other Southern States make
the same sort of showing.
Let no one, from a mistaken idea
of economy, refuse to take his
County paper because the times
are hard. Two dollaYs is a very small
saving, compared to what one loses
by being without his County paper.
We say this without reference to
any particular paper. There is, we
admit, a feeling of self-interest in
these remarks ; yet they express
our honest judgment, in which the
reader will no doubt concur.
it gives us pleasure to say that
the hard times have caused no fall
ing off of either old or new sub
scribers to the HERALD. On the
contrary, our subscription list was
never better.
The first business of the Senate
which convenes the 10th will be to
elect its President, who in the event
of Arthur's death would become
the President of the United States.
The Democrats will have a majori
ty, as Lapham and Miller have not
-yet been sworn in, nor has the suc
Icessor of Senator .Burnside-all
three Republicans. So that the
President of the Senate will un
doubtedly be a Democrat, and will
very likely be Senator Bayard, of
Delaware.
Four wor-kmen were killed on a
landear by r. tr-aip going to the
President's funeral, and a man from
Canton, Ohio, fell from a wall at
Cleveland during the funeral cere
monies and was killed. At Tarry
town, N. Y., two men were killed in
firing a cannon the day of the fune
ral ; and a man at Wilmington, N.
C., had both his hands blown off by
a cannon.

be heretofore.

Dr. Boynton, a hotpeopathist,
who as a fiend of President Gar
field was with him dur-ing his last
illness, charges that the autopsy
upon the body was not honest;
that the surgeons who made it con
cealed some important facts. The
public will put no faith in such
charges.
An editor in New Brunswick, N.
J., was hanged and burned in effigy
because his editorial on the life and
character of the dead President was
not altogether complimentary. It
was not abusive, but only critical.
This did not suit the prevailing
toadyism.
Are you going to Yorktown, or
to Atlanta ~? The former will re
present the triumph of arms, the
latter the triumph of the industrial
arts. Atlanta will no doubt have
by far the largest attendance, as the
Southern people are much more
inter-ested in arts than in arms.

FOR THE HERALD.
I Wish I Knew.
I wish I knew the incomparable
workings of our double-geared courts
of justice (so-called).
I wish I knew how a man convicted
of an atrocious burning, avd who has
been a curse to his neighborhood, an
expense and nuisance to our courts for
years, when sentenced, after a fair
trial, to five years at hard labor in the
penitentiary, with a youlh of a negro
boy--his accomplice-his tool-no
thing more, is permitted to escape,
while the negro is sent to serve out
his time.
I wish I knew that the same court
and machinery of law that ieleased
Bony Satterwhite-the criminal with
money-would release Isom Workmain
-the innocent wan of the two, with
out money. That would be generous.
I wish I knew how much of his
bond would be collected and offered as
a reward for the escaped criminal.
I wish I knew why the oflicers of
our County are required to give bond
for a proper discharge of their duties,
when we have ex-Sheriffs, ex.Clerks
and ex-Treasurers who are reputed
defaulters, and neither they nor their
sureties are brought to grief.
I wish I knew why some things of
such general public interest have to
be kept so "mum."
I wish I knew what good it does to
put property on the Auditor's books
at small fictitious values.
I wish I knew why the true value
and a smaller per cent. would not an
swer the same purpose, and b'e more
conducive to truth.
I gieh I knew by what nection of
law' or exposition of the Ten Comn
mandments, improvements on lands,
worth from five hundred to five thous
and dollars, creep into the Auditor's
books at from one to ten hundred.
1 wish I knew why property in the
shape of cash does not show to near
such adv.antage on the Audito:r's
books as it does by the report of bank
deposits.
I wish I knew how some men ac
quired so much cash and notes, over
and above indebtedness, between 1880
and 1881. The difference being in
some cases from two thousand to nine
teen thousand. There was rapid ac
cumulation, or just a little oversight.
I wish I lknew wlien people would
be expected to tell the plain, unvar
nished truth when they assess their
property, and not to lie according to
a given scale.
I wish I knew much more, but will
not recite it until another time.

Academy --- Respect for

Training.'
The efforts to re-establish the Cita
del Acade.my as one of the IFducation.
al agences of the State meet with a
ready sympathy from all who have
known thiroughi their own experience
or have recogznized in others the
value of the system of training thjere
adopted for fitting young men in a
practical manner for the great busi.
ness of life.
This result of her teachings was
due in large degree to the military
feature of the establishment. The
rigid discipline possible under this
system was of great benefit in many
ways.
Receiving youths fresh from home,
at that supreme moment when charac
ters are made, or marred, by sur
rounding influences, the wholesome
restraints of military discipline
served to preserve the inexperienced
from the temptations found in pro
miscuous society, to enforce attention
to study, and generally to would both
mind and body into a recognition of
authority and obedienee to law.
The intense individuality which is
the peculiarity of American character,
and which in after life has often been
the inspiration to high achievement
and signal success, requires whole
some restraints and checks in youth
to inculcate a reverence for law and.
order- The tendency of the educa
rien at the Citadel was powerful in
this direction, and all the recipients
of her teaching, rich or poor, what
ever had beer' the faults or merits of
home training, were placed on the
same platform and compelled to obey
the same rules.
It was an education of the whole
system; body and mind received eq1ual
ttention and were developed with
equal success.
Whatever objections may be ad
vanced to the military training of
West Point as creating an excess of
~oldiers in the Republic, the educa
ion at the Citadel was open to no
uch strictures.
