The carpet-baggers are in di- re-- -
Hayes' southern policy, or democratic
policy, has thrown them into . iivid
sions. and the game is np with them. At
the Kbbitt House, in Washington, on
inst., saysn World correspondent, there
was an informal conference tie i -
bitt HlUnitn day at Northern ami South
ern Republicans who are do.: -1
with the Southern policy of the Admin
istration. Among those J :e>eat wtre
Governor e'h..:nl erlain, -CRator-ele t
Corhin, Senator Patterson, Gov. re r
Kellogg, of Louisiana, and otiicrs i'i.t
opinion was unanimously •.< • th.U
ifthe tr-ops', were with drawn treat the
support cf Packard in I u'-.ar.i s tin ■>
were about to be from the support of
Governor Chamberlain in S nth Ca: -
lina. there would be an end of the Re
publican party in the S •uth, a: 1 tl . t
the idea of the Administration that tbe
white vote there could be divided was
simply an idle . ne. They agreed that
the South hereafter would be unitedly
Democratic, and that it won.d .e im
possible to carry Florida. Louisiana or
South Carolina for the Republicans in
the future. In the cour-e of the onver
sation, which reached a high tem per,
s me threats of exposure of certan des
patches and documents in connection
with the declaration of the result in
Lvuisiiiiiaand Florida for Fre.-ident were
made. It was even declared that if
Packard were aband ned in Louisiana
the n.--t startling cxp. -ures of the
means by which the Republicans counted
in Hayes there would be published.
Whether this was intended merely a
an intimidation of the President in the
interest of Packard, or really meats a
grand explosion in the last ditch, re
mains to be seen. It is very evident
that the carp et-bag element does not
propose to surrender with -it a spirited
tight, at least on paper.
Hayes has made a double steal. In the
first place he stole the presidency from
Tiidenand now he has stolen hi- - >uth
poiicv from the democratic platform. His
southern policy just now i r.ll right, if
only he w..s the rightful prtsi lent to
enforced, iluw thcearj et-bngzi r< hate
him now, and the northern radicals
make sri <ots at their illegi'i mate hill!
The New England Conference of the
M. li. Church, which met at Bosbpi, L-t
week, is getting into liot blcoil al lit
Hayes and Hampton, and these follow
ers of the one uho taught j>eace and
good will, expressed their indignation at
the turn things have taken with Hayes
in a set of hanging res du'iott- which
were received witlFapplatise.
The preamble to the resolutions re
views the blighting ctb- 's of slavery,
and the two final re-oluti ns are m subs
stance as follows:
Retolttd, That we are alarmed nnd
filled with apprehensions for the future
when we contemplate the practical sale
of one of the great political parties of
the Republic by two politicians f that
party who have held and now hold very
intimate relation* to the President, thus
sacrificing principle,party and righteou -
ness for the sake of temporary s i -
cess.
Retolml, That we protest most earnest
ly against the action of the new admin
istration in making terms with thechicf
of the Kuklux instigator of the Hams
burg massacre, M. C. Rutler, nnd still
more earnestly do we protest og i st of
ficial recognition, by the administration
of that arch enemy of the Republic who
long since ought to liave been hung for
treason. Wade Hampton ofSoutli Car
olina, and who now, by threats and in
timidation, under the very roof of the
White House, as well as on railroad plat
forms and other public places, defies the
power of the government and bullies
the President into compliance with his
traitorous and wicked usurpations.
Col. Forney in bis Press of "Saturday,
makes this inquiry: "Shall the traitor
Wade Hampton, Dictate to Hayes the
patriot!" Well, Colonel, it looks that
tray just now! "And what are you going
to do about it?" The "dead duck" by
this time may think that Hayes is a
traitor too.
The N. Y. Tribune which is an out
and-out Hayes organ, in its Washington
correspondence of April 3 says:
The only anti-Administration men in
Washington to-day are Republicans, and
they are more noisy than ntimerou-. It
may be that the President's Southern
policy will split the party that elected
him and destroy it as a political organi
zation.
Twenty-three States have Democratic
Governors. There is a Demo rati_• ma
jority in the House. The F :i il<> is
nearly equally di vided. and in two years
will be controlled by the Democrat! l .
There is a white majority of more :Im.i
a million Democrats in the United
States, and an absolute majority of a
quarter ofc. million. A Republican w1...
was not elected President, bold-. the <>f
fkethrough fraud. A hundred thou*
and Republicans bold the minor .fed
eral offices through the same fraud. Th is
is the political situation in a neti-holl,
ndit is well to remember the leading
acts.

TBS BTA Y LAW.
The Frie Pispatch, which has been
1. okir.g into the law, thinks it i* too ,
i arly to decide whether its ct'.cct wi. .
Jon the whole, be beneficial or other*
wise, but its chief pints, and the respect
.n which it differs fr. :n the old law, may
the briefly summed up as follows: In
, der the old law creditors have a stay of
Ifima atx mouth* to om year, mn It
:o the amount of the debt. Ifthe cherifi *
j inquisition decides that the rents, issu< *
..n>; profit, ex.'. :-.vo ct taxes, etc., w
' p.'.v the debt in seven years, the lien
. may l* extended, the debtor |uy ir.g su. a
..mount as may '.e fixed by the inquisi-
The now law provide* that vita
the sheriff's iitqu.-dtiot. decio.es that the
:en is, issues and profit, vvsii not pay the
debt in seven years, the sheriff shall ap
;jintajury to go upon the property
,e vied U|K>rt ar.il v.:.an 1 •)| ! i , n..- 1 tlx
same. This valuation is to be returned
t to the court for approval or disapproval
; If, at a sale, the property does not bring
;w -thirds of the : ppraised value, there
shall be a stay of execution f r one
, year.
Inasmuch as the new law affects con
tra-ts made prior to its passage,covering
properties already advertised, if ur.s !d,
, as well as those yet to he advertised, it
j is to l>e brought to the attention of the
supreme court by the lawyers of Phila
delphia this week, in order to test th<
constitutionality of the retroactive scc
i tions of the bill. It is held by some that
J existing contracts cannot bo interfered
n ith, as, for instance, in thecaseof tight
mortgages, wherethedebtor hasexpre.-s
--!y waived all the benefits of a stay of
execution. A dc. ision of the supreme
court may be expected this week
and then we shall know where we
i stand.
The law was framed for the purpose of
aff. ruing relief to many hard-pushed
and bard-working debtors, but its effect
> nan hardly he beneficial to the weaker
class I rrowcra and small property
owners. The I anks will refuse to lend
money on the impaired security offered
them, and the result will be that man;
of those who have heretofore been ac~
! oommodated will unable to borrow.
But if the debtor class is made worse < f
j than before, there is consolation in tlx
•factthat the act dies by limitation in
; eighteen months.
FEAFTISG A
Tiie Lebanon News says : Iti no other
part of Pennsylvania probably, is the
•fc.istingat funerals'carried to such an ex
tent as in Lebanon county. We frequent
ly read accounts in the Lebanon papers
of four or five hundred persons taking
dinner with bereaved familfeson such oc
casions, and as the horses arc fed also,
the feasting and entertainment expen
ses of a first class la-banou county funer
al must be considerable— say slsoto s3oo.
Really, it is not every person, in hard
times like the present, that can allbrdto
die, if their substance is to be eaten up
in this way.
Lebanon is not the only county when
the practice of feasting at funerals i*
still kept up. Centre county can abo
l boast of tliia "in-titution," and it should
be done away with—the immediate rel
atives of the bereaved family of course
are not meant in this. But those cas< s
of persons, many of whom attend only
because a "free meal"—a btg dinner
j can be had, and s itnc of whom will
! actually foot it three and four miles on
that account, showing that with thorn to
gratify the stomach outweighs respect
for the dead. Why should a whole
neighborhood, within reach of its own
table, quarter itself upon a house of
mourning on the funeral day and tin n
it into a house of feasting? It is unbe
coming in the highest degree, saving
nothing of the attendant labor and ex
pense it inflicts upon the bereaved fami
ly during the very days when their sor
row is deepest, and w hen solitude and
quiet is most acceptable. Let us make
up our minds to have this practice of
feasting at funerals done away with
We think every sensible, thinking reader
of the Reporter will agree with us that
it is wrong.
