ers directly dependant upon their
places for the necessaries of life,
are tbe ones to whom tbe blow
comes most crnelly. It is true th.*t
very many of them will be afforded
some protection by the Civil Ser-
vice Law under which they were
appointed, but tbe very idea ot a
change iu tbe administration is at
tended iu all ot their minds with
tbe most heartfelt dread; tor if
their room should be desired mot e

easy for tbe new masters of tbe sit-
nation to trump up charges which

Whi’e all whose names have be
come prominent In the history of
the country daring the present ad
ministration bear their defeet with
the fortitude and grace to be ex
pected of meu iu their exalted posi
tions, be wbo is most oonspionons
for the philosophy with which he
regards tbe result is the Oi.e wbo
waa most concerned, namely, tbe
President himself. Cool, dignified,
oonrteoas, and self contained, be
receives his guests almost daily iu
tbe historic East Room of the
White Honae; while the Marine
Band near ac hand may be cootrib
atiug its joyous strains to swell the
triumph of the Republican chief
tain, or the very windows of the
White House itself may be rattling
to the salutes fired iu his honor,
not a shadow crosses the face o
him whose conduct commands tor
him tho same admiration and re
spect iu adversity as were freely
rendered him iu the brightest hours
of his prosperity. Truly this is
great man ; nothing but the ecu
sciousueas of having performed hia
whole duty at the risk of his per
aoual ambition could enable him to
sustain so succeastully the trying
position which fortune now call
upon him to occupy. “It is better
to be riaht than to be Piesideut,
is uodead sentimentalism with him
but a living, fundamental principle
of his nature.
* * » *
To those who love this great man
for hia noble character bow grati
fying it must be to know that he is
still sustained aud assisted by her
who has more thoroughly gained
the affections of tho Nation than
any of that long line of distinguish
ed ladies who have occupied the
important post of mistress of the
White House. The true nobility
which shows itself to the best ad
vantage iu the day of adverse for
tune now characterizes this lovable
woman no less than her distinguish
ed husband. Like a queen has she
held tho sceptre of social power;
like a queen will she lay it dowu.

era! Southern States the battle
flags captured in the war, were
used against the President for all
they were worth. A very large
class of the Democrats on the otb
er h •ml arc decidedly of the opin
ion that the money advanced by
Morton aud several other di.'-tiug-
uiabed Northern Republicans was
no mean (actor iu determining tbe
result. Again, st me of those ot
our own political persuasion who
hate the Civil Service Lew with a
radly bate claim that the Presi
dent’s policy on this subject was
what resulted in oismudoing. Last-
y, a few of tbe more philosophical
of both parties calmly assert that
the Republicans were victorious
simply because theirs was the
strong party numerically; that tbe
oss of a few Mugwump votes in
New York Stale four years ago on
account of Blaine’s vile personal
record was all tbat turned tbs scale
uhen, nd that the absence of any
such charges against the privi te
chaiacter of their late candidate
Drought the lost sheep back into
the Republican fob’, aud restoied
the numerical condition of the two
contending parties to Us normal
state.
There can be no doabt that all of
these may have|been more or less
important elemenisenteriog into the
peculiar game of chance which has
just been concluded. Tammany
and tbe other corrupt political ma
chines in New York aud elsewhere
may have resorted to underhand
means for tbe accomplishment of
their ends, as they have uqn
doubtedly done in tbe past: it is
possible, too, thatfjtbere may have
been a slight feeling ag-inst tbe
President oo seconut of what was
regarded as his
One of tbe most interesting ques
tions now engrossing tbe attention
of the country is as to what will be
the policy of him who is next loflll
the Presidential chair. The friends
of general Hat risen allege th;it h<*
is a man of aiidonhted ability, aud
that he will di-ch r^e the duties of
bis high office according to what
he deem* beat, without the dicta
tion of any “power behind the
throne.” If bis friend* a»e correct,
the foim. r udminble quality holds
out rite bopeih.it the new Presi
dent’s wi.sdom will enable him to see
that the jiolicy of hi-* party to
wards the South iu the paat was
nustatesmaulike aud unjust; while
the latter quality would ensure ns
rom tbe malignant insults of tbe
detested James G. Blaiue. It is
too far ahead, however, to predict
with any degree of certainty what
ill be the policy of t ie uew Presi
dent, but it is highly probable, as
>as already been prophesied by
some of the newspapers of the coun
try, that it having been found im
Dossible to divide “tbesolid South,”
>y harsh measures, the new man, it
ie is as smat t as his friends say he
is, will attempt to accomplish this
>v resorting to kindness, a course
of action greatly to be dreaded, and
one which will be fraught with the
greatest danger to our Southern
institution*.
Ot course, the all-absorbing topic
at tbe Capital with both ol tbe
great political parries is as to what
cause or causes tbe Democras
tic defeat is to be attributed, and
the reasons assigned, it in needless
to say, are numerous. Some there
are who alb ge that the cause is to
be fonud in tbe oomplioatious which
arose in the State and Municipal
canvass in New York, claiming
that the President was “betrayed
in tha boose of hia friends.” Soma
ot the Repablicana say tbat the
partiality for the
Bomb, a condition of things which
was nufortnoately aggravated by
the falae policy of aendiugldisting
nished Boat barn statesmen on
“missionary” work throughout
New York and other Northern
States during the campaign; these
stump speakers but added to the
existing irritation, aud it would
have beeu far better if they bad
beeu left at home: that a great
many votes changed hands over
Murtou’s “barrel” is certain, while
the retention of Postmaster Pear
sou, a Republican, iu the New York
uftice undoubtedly made em mies
for tbe President there, as ilid^the
same policy almoal everywhere that
he pursued it; devotion to tbe cause
of duly, and atrict ; dhereuce to
principle regardless of cooseqnen
ces, are rarely rewarded in this
world, least ot all iu theiworld ot
politics. All ot these suppositious,
however,.fall far short ol the rea
issue which caused our defeat, aud
that was the Tariff question. As
is wed known, the protectionists at
the North wield a tremendous pow
er and influence. Fearful lest the
President’s reasonable aud just
r« commendations us to a moderate
redaction ot the Tariff* would seri
ously affect their |>ockets, they sys
temutically deceived the m.isses o
the ( 6 >ple by bolding him up as an
expouent of tbe most advanced free
trade notions, such as prevail
England today. This latter doc
trine, while (»erhaps correct iu theo
or.v, is utterly unsuited to tbe con
ditious of the people of the Umtei
States. Nobody knows tbit better
than the President, and none knew
better that he so regarded it than
these same Republican* whose per
souil ini ere .ta induced them
misrep eseut him. With the tre
ineudou* amount of money aud in
tlueuce which is at their command
they promulgatvd their canard tar
and wide, aud by this means, ia
our opinion, won the victory. Had
tbe masses of the people under
stood the exact position held by
Mr. Cleveland in regard to this
matter, he would be the President
elect to day. That his views is an.
doubtedly tbe correct one, we firm
ly believe future political develop
ments will demonstrate. It is said
that when the President wrote hi*
famous message in which be recom
mended tbit reduction cf the tariff,
he informed some ot his friends tbat
he was conscious of the fact that be
was taking a step which might af
fect him politically, bat be added,
“It’s the right thing, and I’m going
to do it” Does history contain tbe
record of any act which more
nearly approaches the sublime f *
