McClure has written a letter home ‘from Washington to his paper, the Phila- detphin Zimcx (Dem.), fn which he mrkes some comments woon the uncertainty that prevalls with regard to the policy of Gen. Garilelt’s Administration, and its effect upon the future of both parties, ‘The attitude of tho South-toward his Administration ts tho ‘one question, hedeelares, which subordinates allothers, and; In bis opinion, the general tony of the Southern press has prepared the publte Cora return of tha more conservative Southerners in amore concllintory mood. What this harmonizing of the South, “ton Inrge degree,” with the Garficld Administra ton means, ho thus deflies: It menns simply that tho Jouth, as Southorn- era, shall accept tho common-seneo viow of the netitat situntion, and that tho now President, as adeelded Republican’ Executive, shatl do the same. And both must represont thoir respect: ive coustitucncles if they would suceecd. It would be utterly frultlowd, nnd Indeed, worse than. fruitiesd of ood, for any numbor of Sonthorn statesmen to eagr thor politient tots Diindly witha Repablican Admintatration; but Af they can harmonize with’ # ibornl Adininis- tration, and be sustained in tho effort by tho Mberal and progressive sontiment of tho South, they ean necomplish much for thelr people ant much for the country. On the othor aide, it would be worse than folly for Gon. Garfield to nasune nuy Kttitude toward the South thit wonld not be cordially austatued by the lberat and progressivo clement of tho Hepublican par. Re ‘but if the South shall opon the way to bring ita best nion into harmonlons relutions with 0 Republican Administration thut commands tho support of Its own party, tho unity of Northorn and Southorn sontlmont sustaining the Goyorn- ment would be productive of uuspenkablo bicus- ings to the wholo country, f lt is sincerely to be hoped that Col, McClure is right in hts forecast of the polltical future, and that the South will come into harmont- ous relations with the Administration, aban- don fts sectlonalism and State-sovereignty nonsense, respect tho Inws and the constitu. tlonal ninendments, guaranteo every eltizon in his rights, protect the ballot-box from ylolence, fraud, nnd corruption, punish tho violators of the law, and abandon [t8 proju- dices against tho North, It Is a pleasing prospect to contemplate, and would be the very course that Is necessary tu the return of pence, order, and prosperity to that section. But what grounds has Col. McClure for his pleasant outlook, when the very tirstmeasure brought before the present Congress, and en- thusinstically pressed by tho Southern Iead- cers, lan Dill to regulate the Electoral count, (n glaring deiiunes of constitutional provis- fons, and which If adopted would ennblo them to throw out the voto of Now York, and declare Hancock clectad? Does this look Uke ‘a return of the South to harmony with the Government? Does this look Ikea regard for the Constitution and the laws? Does this took likean abandonment of sec- tionalism or a surrender of prejudice? Ts this what Col. McClure calls harmonizing with the Administration? It surely is a stranga metho of harmony. Dut, snys Col, McClure, “President Hayes committed astupld blunder in his awkward attempt of, gSouthern econeiiiation policy, Ho meant well, but he falled beertse of is overween- ing confiqgncs in himself,” That President Ilayes committed an error }s unquestionable, but that Me falled from oyerweening conf Menco in himself fs not true, ‘Tho South had Ditterly complained of military rule during Gon. Gront’s Admiutstration. Thoy charged. that thelr rights wero taken awny from thom, and that thoy had no control of their own nf- falra, “When Mr, Hayes camo into power, they promised that, If he would withdraw the troops and leave them to manage thelr own affairs, thoy would bo loyal vo the Government, respectful to the laws, aud would guarantee and protect all classes of citizens in thelr rights, ‘Tho proméo was made apparontly In good falth, and was accepted as such, ‘The troops: wore withdrawn, ‘The South was grantei/hamo rate, aud what was: the ro- sult? ‘Tho negrocs wero bulldozed.
