"No; I had stipiiuted to spoak at the West early lait month, but my illness provented. "ill you elect any Republican Congressmen in Louisiana ?" "Not one. I suspect that some of the Federal aj)pointoos signified up here that they had a Congres sional district hore and there in their pockot, but not one can be delivered, I apprehond. The Re publicans, indeed, are not now at work as an organization, but may to somo oxtont reinforco the Nationals, who have nominoos in the firstt.hre Congressional districts. I am a member of the Republican State Central Committoo and never before know such lukowarmnoss in the ranks as is now manif0st." "Do you ascribo this result to Mr. Hlayes' 'policy?' " "The Republican party of the North is responsiblo. By its re construction plan -it propped the Southern States with a military crutch, and when the President knocked it from under Louisiana this same party had for three years boon denouncing the prop through its leading prints and the lips of a very considerablo clement. Grant's Attorney General, Piorropont, wrote Ames, of Mississippi, in '75, 'The public are tired out with these annual autumnal outbreaks.' Ames wont down as the Republicans of Arkansas had toppled the year be.. fore. Grant found himself antag onized by strong Republicans in Congress and by the more oracular joinals of the party, and so the Federal sohliwt y were pulled back northward by the coatt-ail, company by company, regiment by regiment, until a meagre forco was left at ro, mote points only. Grant's last official despatch southward from the White House was an admission to Augur that ptblic sentimont would no longer sanction the maintenance of Southern State governments by Fedleral sold ier~y. Ho complained to me, aind doubtless to others, nearly two years before, that this sentiment aflorded him so little support, outside of village papers, in what hp conceivoed lie ought to do with reference to the South." "Then do you think that Presi dent Hayes' policy faily consists with that old Rlepublican senti-. moent ?" THlE NEWO NEGLEcTED. "The Republican party obviously thinks so as a whole, however restive some of its statesmen, like -Senator Conkling, may be as to the Southern experiment. Look at its platforms in the Oetober and No v'omber' States this year. In that of Iowa alone is there any token of mnarked dissenit. Conventions turn their backs on the South and an - nounce that the finances are the paramonnt and practically the only issue. The fault goes down deepe~r than any administration. Ho has done his uftmost to hold his Ro~. publican outposts at the South and has gone down with them. The - party that enfranchised him into a target has abandoned him even while screaming 'outrages,' and with every Piovocation under Democratic criticisms in this year's -campaigns. ,Xt attempts no vindication or defence of its dealing with tho' South and forgets its 'sacred honor' postulate save as regards the holder of a bond or due bill--an obligation, of course, to be scrupulously mnet. The sternest censors upon the National Republican party to-day at the South are not Democrats, but Republicans, who, however simple and ignorant they ay be, are generous-minded and quic150'ned with a keen instinct for- fair play. I fear the divorce nmst come ; the lepublican North has abandoned the political domicile which its owvn hands fas hioned It is a confession that reconstruction has been an uitter and1 ignoble failure. The confession was subsntilaIly made, indeed, b.efoio SIr, Hayes entered the WiteiHouse. The party hxad already spanked the .sod with: a spade over its own issues, and this tall it has put a slab over the sod." THE SOLID sdurm, Od .$ op% SOLD.

These Arithmetics are the out-como of thirty years experience of DR. SHELTON P. SANFORD of Georgia, one of the most skilful and Muccessful teachers in this country In clearness of definitions, fullness of slate exercises, thoroughne.s of analysis and general completeness, they are unsurpassed, if indeed, equalled. They are eminently practical. Studying Sanford, pupiIs learn to think. Sinco'71-'73, they have been in use in the p.ublic and private schools of Charles ton city, in the private schools of Colum bia, etc., etc. Read the following en dorsements based on use of the books in the school: From HoN. Huon S. THoMPsoN, State Superintendent of Education. (At the time of writing) Principal Male Academy, Columbia, S. C., "Sanford's Arithmetics are sup rior to any that I have seen, in the fullnss of the examples, the clearness and Fimplicity of the analyses, and the accuracy of th' rules and definitions. This opinion is based upon a full and tho.-ough test in the school-room. To those teauhers who may examine these Arithmetios with reference to introduction, I would es pecially commend the treatment of Per centage and Profit and Loss. No text books that I have ever used are so satis factory to teachera and pupils." From Miss E. A. KELLY. Principal Char leston, (S. C.) Female Seminary. "CHAULESTON, July 13, 1878.-Sanford's Common School and Sanford's Higher Analvtical Arithmetic have for five years stoo(f the test of constant use in our class roonm. We think them better adapted to the wants of our school than any other arit,hmetics with which we are acquain ted." Under date of July '22, 1878, Miss MAnY BROwNFIELD, Sum morvil le, S. ('., writes: "iiav'ing used Sanford's Arithmetics and Worcester's Dictioharies for several years as sch.ool books, an.h seeing the beneficial results, I take great pleasure in recomimending themi to the favorable notice of teacherA" From Mrss IRAnlEL D. MARTIN, Principal liigh School for Girls, Columbia, 8. C. OIt affordls me pleasure to give my most unqualiied 6ommendation of San ford's Arithmetics.
