Gartield’s Intentions, The Presi- dent-elect hns been favored with any number of suggestions a3 to tho formation of his Cabinet, and has doubtless received them all with courtesy and dignity, but ho has three months yet in which to consider tho matter, and lois not the sort of man to decide so important a question with unnecessary haste, Turn manner in whieh Mr, Robinson, Licutenant-Goyernor-elect, was shot and mortally wounded Saturday Is surrounded with considerable mystery. It scems that a guard had been placed overa mine fn dis- pute, and that in tho darkness the guard fired upon Gov, Robinson and tho manager of tho mine, not knowing who they were. ‘The guard elatins to have almed over their heads, but thts clatm Is controverted: by tho fact that Gov. Robinson was shot in four ptaces, and fs Ikely to die of his wounds, A far mors plausible oxplinatlon of the shooting is to be found fn tho circumstance that thera had been bad feeling for some time past be- tween the miners and the mine mannger, and that it was for tho latter that the bullets were Intended, ee Tire Southern politicians now alring tholr views in Washington believe that the pres- ent Mfe-and-death struggle between tlie North and the South, between Iberty and slavery, between a North American Nation and a Worth Anierlean Zollyérein, “must continue as long as the Republic exists.” ‘These Southern implacables furget that the Republic will endure for some time yet, anid that both thoy and their hostility to freo.in- stitutions will be carefully boxed upand low- cred {ute the freo soll within the few short flectlng years that span the life of man.

A GEORGIAN’S VIEWS, . __ Bptetat Dupateh to The Chicago Tribune, Wasiinatox, D, C., Nov. 23,—Judge Loch: rane, of Georxin, expresses very hopeful ylews na to the friendly attitude of the inasses of the South towards the Garfield Aduinistration, Speaking on this subject, Judge Lochrane said: Tho South ty tired of waiting for Democratic victories, ‘They never come, ‘The Hmit of patience has been reached, Fallure has taught Southern men that the Northern Dewocracy, allied to the tradition of slavery, has not suflicient hold upon the peaple to achieve a National vie- tory, even with the ald of 183 votes from the Solid South.” “Ts the Southern Democraey likely to separate from the Northern Demgeracy ?” “Yes. Public oplnicn in the South Js in an anomalous condition, It is rapldly chang- ing In favor of Republican puliey. ‘Tho Southern people are:béxiuning: to believe | that the Republican party is Iikely to con- trol this‘country for another quarter of n century, ‘ THK STRUGGLE IN THE SOUTH NOW {s between the leaders and tho masses. ‘Tho fatter do not believe in Southern statesnan- ship, socalled, ‘They have no confidence in their own leaders, ‘They belleve that thelr leadership for ten yenrs ins been a fallure, The thinking men say that they have been forced to adupt a policy that has resulted in disaster, hasdriven away capital, and has discouraged {minigration, ‘This is shown by the public press of the South, which has no unfriendly words for Garfield? “Is theron disposition to ba friendly with Garflold?” “There. certainly 1s, No publle man in Congress since the War has ever been more Uberal In his sentiments towards tho South, Even in the discussion of some Southern elains he has demanded justice for tho South.” ‘ “WHAT DO YOUR PEOPLE EXPECT of the Administration ?”” - “They expect that It will be just, and Nib- eral, and National. Ido not think that Gen. Gartfteld has a single enemy south of Mason and Dixon's Line, ‘The Morcy letter forgery was nelther concelyed, encouraged, nor fp proved by tho South. On the contrary, Southern men denounced It, and they also opposed tho vitupurative personal campaign against the Republican candidate, ‘They have littlo to trike back su far as tho animos- itles of the campaign are concerned.” “‘Dous the South expect a Cabinet place 2” “They LOOK FON NO OFFICIAL POSITION under Garfield, ‘hero Is no public man in the South of sufficient reputatation to com- mand National attention whose services for the Republican party were such as to entitle him to such recognition. ‘The South only expcots fairness, ‘Thoy belleve Garfleld will -boe Mberal and generous, ‘They expect Gar- field to seloct only Republicans for lls Cabl- net, and to distribute the patronage of tho Administration along the party line, They would have expectod Hancock to do the same.” “Tho South is not loyal as to sentiment, but, lke the Scythian, is: obcdiont to law, But IT 18 GROWING LOYAL in sentiment and Natlonallty. Love for the Constitution and the Government are on tho {nercase, The Southern people aru fond of thelr momorles, of thelr history, and of tho name of thelr section, but they dally see more of the logic of cvents,—that loyalty moans prosperity, that sectionalism means ruin, They grow wise, and the day is not’ distant when the Solld South will be dis-. solved, and ° TI LOYALTY OF TIE SOUTIT ‘be ns warm as that of Now England. . To: ‘acconiplish this, Garticld will not make we mistakes of his predecessor In necepting lip- services for honest patrlotlsm: Tho State-rights question Is settled, Tho Domocrncy that claims that the con- stitutional amendmonts ara. vold Is as dead as . Jast year's snow, Tho masses of the people of Georgla ara in accord with the principles of the Republican party with respect to tarlif and Internal finprovements,”. Judge Lochrane does ngt think that Sena- tor Brown, of Georgia, lrowover, will havo the strength to take such a position ns ho linself outlines in this Intorview, Lochrane thinks that Brown's intentions will be con- fined to smooth sentiments and not mani fested by courageous acts, 4 THE OTHER SIDE. AKOUTHERN CONGRESSMAN TELIS ALL AVOUT IT—HE THINKS IT WAS COWARDICE AND TAIFY MATTERS, Spectat Misputch to The Chicago Tribune Wasiinaton, D. 0, Nov. %.—Roger Q. Mills, of the Fourth Texas District, hus are rived here for U8 winter, a week or ay Id advance of the opening of the session of Con ~ Ile touk an onerous part in the Jate clection, and now wants to rest. Mr. Milts says that It was the Indlang election which first undeelded him as to the outcome of the canvass, The news of the defeat of Landers in October fell ‘upon him: and his political friends tike ‘TH CRACK OF DOOS. From that time on he knew there was no hope of Hancock's “pulling through.” Mr. Mills says that. four years ago, when the Demoeratle party obtained control ‘of the Jlouse.of Representatives, it had In tts hands the destinies of the country, to be wielded wisely or unwisely, At that time, had It fairly met the great isstie then and now hefora the American people,—that of the Torlff,—It might easily have become master of tho situation, and lave established itself firnily In the confidence of the people. But, with an unwisdom that searcely has a parallel in the history of any political party, it has falled to push its ndvantage. Instead of making a vigorous war upon Protective mnnnopolles, four years ago, It busted iteclt w A PENRY-WISH ECONOMY which had for Its highest object the entting- down of official salaries, and the crippling, in sume cases, of the Government. During the whole life of the Forty-fourth Congress there was no attempt made to enter upon any tariff-legisintion beyond the preparation of a general Dil! by Mr. Morrison, then Chair- tnan of the Ways and Means Committee, In the lute campaign the Democrats, says Mr. Mills, by some inexplicable blunder avoided the ‘Tarlif issue altogether; and in tho plat- form itself (hare is only a vague allusion to It, In form so misleading and shadowy a3 to excite the hot wrath of Democrats of the Free-Trade type, like Mr. Mills, Ie thinks, however, that the fight is ot yet fought out; and that, notwithstanding tha apparent trlumph of the principles of Protection In the election of Mr. Garfield, the struggte will be again renowed, this time with » West and South fully alive to the dangers of tha situa- tion, and with an access of knowledge gained through ‘their former severe defeat by the monopollsts of the Eastern and Middle States, THE SOUTH WILL REMAIN Sota, Mr. Mills does not belleve that the result of Mr. Garfield's election will be to disinteg- rate the South, “Under whatever party- name the fight shall be kept up,” said he, “there will continue to be a tight—an Irre- pressible conflict if you will—between the party of Centralization and the party of Staterights. And by State-rights 1 mean simply those rights witch are specifically guaranteed by the Constitution. Ihe South will always be solid for the maintenance of those State-rights, just as Del- aware, Connecticut, and Rhode Istand would be solid ugalnst a proposition to base repre- sentation In the United States Senate upon population. So with the South. ‘To-day that South, If stripped of the self-preservatory rights guaranteed by the Constitution and by tho traditions of a century, would be Swal- lowed up In the great North. She would lose her importance in the Republic; and thisenlamity her people, who are a simple and agricultural and a poor people, will vhever colisent te, Speaking after the man- ner of scientific men, there ure presented iy this strugete the opposition of a centrifugal ton ‘centripetal force. ‘The Iatter ts repre- sented by the Republican party, whict seeks to drag everything toa centres and the other by the Democratic party, which seeks to drive all powor outward Into the clreamfer- ence, the periphery, the members of the Re- public—in short, inte the representative States. This struggle, from its very nature, ninst continue ag long as the Ropubtic con- tinues to exist.? Dow: TH TH? NATIONAL BANKS, Another cause of Democratic defeat has been the cowardice of that party, in Congress and out of it, in its treatment of tho National- bank question, “In many parts of the South,” continued Mr. Mills, “the people have grown Ured of Democratic supineness in this regard, and there have sprung up powerful Greenback organizations, opposed nt every pointto the Republican party, but yet willing In some Instances to work hand In hand with It to effect the defeat of Democrat- je candidates.” Mr. Mills himself has had his majority of two years ago reduced more than one-half at the hands of Greenbackers, and fs Inclined to fear'n more formidable op- position inthe future, unless, ashe puts it, the Democratic party does something for the country to rescue it from the. thralldom of tho National-banic inonopely. Ills colleague, Mr, Jones, has been defeated by a Green-* backer, ‘These Greenbackers, Mr, Mills says, are men with Democratic proclivittes, but they are thred of Democratic Inabltity and in- competency, : DEMOCRATIC FUTURE. As tothe future of the Democratie party, Mr, MIs thinks inuch will depend upon the conduet of the new Adininistration, A policy of aggression on the purt of Mr, Gar-, fleld—particularly any attempt to take away any of the powers of the State Governments, based on a cry of insurrectlonary tunults on tho part of its white citizens, and a charge that they are tending to deprive the colored men of their right of voting—may for the moment deprive the Demverats of a portion of thelr representation In Congress; but such a step. he thinks, would by followed by a dofection from the Republican ranks of some of the grent Western States. “We of the South,” oxpinined Mr, Mills, “are in the condition of the Confederate army towards the close of the War, Defeated again and again, its soldiers at length grew to be very inuch disheartened, and looked upon victory as unattalnable; but its members were al- ways found full of courage, and wero ready for n now cngngement.” Mr. Mills dees not beliove that the Democrata In Congress will adopt any obstructive tnetics this winter, though the economic polley adopted by the Atkins Appropriation Committeo will in the maln be followed, * GARFIELD, 18 CAMINET, Spectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasiunatoy, D, 0., Nov, 23.—Every poll- teinn hore is busy making a Cabinet for Gen, .| Garileld, excopt the General himselt, He has probably not got his ideas together on the subject. He has certainly not sald anything, elther directly or indirectly, He lstens to suggestions as faras the pressure upon hin will permit, for there fs scarcely an hour that ho is not overrun with visitors. Nor docs he seam disposed to engage tn private conyer- sations, He rather shrinks from tha latter, fenring, apparently, that he might be sus- pected of tixlng up matters, Hoehasoxpressed tho opinion, however, that he ought to have UNTID FRURUALY. to reach conclusions, ‘There is 9 report In the New York ‘inca of this inorning that Gen, Garfield had invited Secretary Sherman to remain at the head of tho Treasury De- partment, and that the fatter had declined, stating thal he was an unconditional candl- dato for the Senato from Ohla, It may be sald positively that, so far as this relates to a tender on the part of Gen, Gartleld, it ls untrue, It Is, of course, truc that Secretary Sherman Is n candidate for the Senate, and that he desires theplace, Whether he would accept or decling a plice in the Cabluct NO. ONE If AUTHORIZED TO BAY. Thery is, undoubtedly, a strong pressure bo- ing brought to bear upon Gen, Gardeld from bustness-men for tha retention of Secretary Sherman, but publle mon here, Including Mr. Sherman, thiuk Cen. Gnrfield ought to be left entirely free to choose the members of his Cabinet. It may also be sald that Mr. Sherman thinks it would be a snerifice on My part to remaln where hie Is, even withont reference to the Senatorship, but he 1s will- ing todu anything he ean to promote the success of the Incoming Aduiinistratton. It fy also to be sald that between Secretary Sherman and Gen, Gartield THE MOST CORDIAL VERLING PREVAILS, and the mutual confidence that has so long existed remains undisturbed. In regard to the Senatorial contests {1 the several States that are soon to choose Republican Senators, Gen, Garfield hasveaused it to be distinctly understood that he will take no part what ever, and if there is any eandidate who pre- stuines to trade upon the patronage of the Incoming Administration! he ‘Is seeking stip port upon false pretences, Every Republic- fn member of a legislative body who may be called to vote fora United States Senator may do as ho pleases, without the hope of galn or the fear uf toss In the way of patron- age by reason of his chulee, LELUNDERS.

Noy. 25—Tho de- elsion of some of the Indinua Republican managers to return the defeated Republican Elector as elected, {snot regarded with much favor here. It 1s generally thought to be far better and wiser to drop him than to afford the Democrats in Congress any grounds for delaylng the Kleetoral count, if they, for any reason, would desire to do so, Thestuptdity which caused the defent Is here regurded a3 altogether too grentto be hidden by an at- tempt to create tho Inpression that no such neglect had occurred as to really invalidate the returns Jn the: case of this particular Elector. SSEE AND Mis- THE CINEF INTEREST among Republieans here nppears to be to tearn who of thy Republican managers in AIndlann are responsible tor the want of care which made such mistake possible, The feeling is also general that those who are at fault should be permanently retired from further direction of Republican campaigns, The feellng in regard to this matter Ig tho more pronounced becauso of the fact that both the National and the Congressional Committees took unusual palus to instruct tho Committees in all the details connected with tho selection and voting for Electors, THE LEGISLATURE, Speetat Dupateh to The Chicago Tribune, Wasutnatoy, D.

Persons desiring to become | free citizens of any canton are required to pay for thepriviloce. The price of eltizenship in tho City of Hnsle, for Instance, at one timo was $700, Whenever a eltizen of ono of these enntons determines to emigrate, ho may apply to the Public ‘Treasury and 10 ceive his share of the common fund. ‘his isas much his own property ag any other ho may possess. Consul Hitz declares that all THESE SO-CALLED APPROPRIATIONS by the Swiss cantons are simply the sums pald out of the common treasury, as de- seribed nbove, to persons entitled to receive them, and are inno sense approprintions of public funds, Nor are the persons paupers to whom the money is pal: This 's the only — possible — foundation, Afr, Itz says, for Consul Byers’ story. Mr. Ilitz also denivs that the Swiss authoritles are willing that paupers or erlminals should be thrust upon other countries. On the con- trary, the Swiss. emigration Inws are stringently and rigidly enforced, Persons engaged In shipping emigrants are placed under heavy bonds to send no improper por sons, BESIDES, Switzerland cares for her own destitute and unfortunate citizens, not only at home but in foreign countries, and she certainly malne talns'her patipers at home more cheaply than would be possible abroud. ‘The Swiss Government appropriates money annually for destitute Swiss in all parts of the world. In 1879 the Government appro- printed for this purpose 15,000 franes, and the Canton authoritles nearly 20,000 francs, A portion of this was sent to tho United States, TUE NEW YORK CITY ASSOCTATION last year recelved nearly 3,000 frances from the Swiss Government for this_vurpose, and the very Canton of Zurich from which Mr. Byers wrote appropriated 2,500 franes td help sick and destitute Swiss in the Untted States. Mr. Hitztestimates the number of Swiss {1 the United States now at 100,020, Me moreover says that he has authority from hls Governinent. % TO SEND HACK ‘TO BWITZERLAND any person who may” have been improperly sent here, erany native Swiss who is sick, dustitute, or dependent through misfortune. Mr. Hitz, spenking of the qitestlon of nat- urallzation aud cltizenship, salt the United States ought to keep a registry of all natur- alized cltizens | in tho State” Depart- ment, ns the privileges of eltizenship tn this country are so easily obtained that they are too often considered of Tittle value, and ara too often bestowed on persons who are un- worthy of the honor, THE COUNTERFEITERS, 3, BROOKS OPINION, Speeiat Dupateh to The Chicag> Tribune, Wasitinoron, 23,—Mr. Brooks, of the ‘Treasury Secret Si yy salad to- ‘ight that ff Smith and Brockway, the coun- terteHers, had been released from custody ho was not advised of ft. “Phe evidence amlnst sway, he thinks, ts -quite- conclusive, - wowd be, in his s of Justices, The ard to Smythe, who engraved the plates frou whieh the counterfelt notes end bonds were printed, fs defensible, Mr..
