TThy He Won't Hate It.
Dx-Attorney General Benjamin Htirris
h Brewster, of the late magnificent surround
ings of the attorney general's oflice in
Washington, has astonished a company of
his Philadelphia friends by declining a
welcome home banquet which they ten
dered him. He puts his declination en the
ground that he dee3 net think it seemly for
public men te lw feasting in these " calam
itous days."
If Mr. Biewster refers te the adtent of a
Democratic administration and his ew n re-
tlxement from office, however public opin
ion may differ from his a3 te the effect of
the change, some respect may be paid te
his disposition te weep in silence and be
wail in solitude ever the unpleasant places
Inwhiclf his lines have fallen. A man can
not be reasonably expected te be jelly at his
own funeral.
But if Mr. Brewster expects the people
before whom this pait of his letter ispa-
' raded, te believe that he cannot with peace
v;of mind cat and drink a geed dinner, when
be many men have te work for eighty cents
a day, and many mere have no weik at all,
the Honorable Brewster will be suspected
of being a tnfie Insincere. It is net in ac
cord with his personal characleiiatics nor
hbis official depertment.

The preposition will hardly be gainsaid
that h county se rich, se prosperous, se
densely settled and with such an intelli
gent and progressive population as Lancas
ter, should maintain free highways, passa
ble at all seasons and open te all travelers.
Yet the astonishing fact remains that
this shlrc town, scat of justice and centre of
trade, has every avenue of approach te it
guarded by a tell gate. The pleasure drives
and highways of truffle are blocked en every
side by the read bar. One cannot get in or
out with a vehicle save by one tortuous,
winding way, except he pay his tribute of
two cents a mile. Like n fly in the spider's
web the city is enmeshed within a net
work of reads, nearly all of which have
been as burdensome te the public as they
have been profitable te their stockholders.
Hut these who complain of the loll paid
as a burthensome tax 011 travel must
admit that the macadamized read Itself
affords a great facility te travel, and that
without it eitr towns would be shutout
from communication with the country
dining a part of the jcar when dirt
reads aie well nigh impassible. The
companies which have built the many
macadamized reads around the city and in
the county liave given a great geed te the
county and its towns ; but the geed would
be greater if the reads were frre. Of ceurse
they cannot be made be by the companies
which conduct them for profit; but they
can 1x5 se made by the county. The ques
tion is whether it should net purchase and
open them te free trael.
A Congenial Mission,

him 11 geed opportunity te cultivate the
lileraiy tastes te which he Inclines. IIe
will find in the manners, customs and in
stitutions of that peculiar land the materials
for desciiptlen which will be fiuitful for a
book or two ; and though many pens hae
been employed upon it, Mr. Cox will
find fresh views te picture. There will
net be any heavy diplomatic weik, nor any
huiry and lush of business among the
sedate people with whom lie sits down te
make himself agiecable, as he will knew

position, leading a blamoless private llfe and
enjoying the respect and esteem of a com

Henry W. Grady, et the Atlanta Cmufi'f -tten,
has nil article in the April Vcnltry, in
reply te Mr. Cable, from which we qUote Us
fellows I "Let no ene Imagine, from what is
here said, that the Seuth is careless or the
opinion or regardless of the counsel of the
outslde world. On the contrary, whlle
maintaining firmly a position she believes te
be csseutlal, she appreciates heartily the
value of general symivilhy and confidence.
With an earnestness that Is Illtle less than
palhc(li) she bespeaks the paUcnce and the
impartial judgment orallcencornod. Surely
her situation should command this, rather
than Indifference or antagonism. In pev erty
and defeat, with her cities dcslroyed, her
Holds desolated, Iter labor disorganized, her
homes in ruins, her families scattercd, and
the ranks or her sous decimated, In the face
of universal prejudice, fanned by the storm
or war Inte hostility mid hatred, under the
shadow or this sorrow and this disad
vantage, she turned bravely te con
front a problem that would jiave taxed
te the utmost overy resource or a rich and
pevv erful and victorious people. Uvcry Inch
or her progress has been beset with sero dif
ficulties ; mid irthe way is new clearing, it
only reveals inore clearly the tremendous
Impert orthe work te which her hands are
given. It must be understood tlmt'she do de
sires te slleuce no criticism, evade no issue,
and lessen no ro-qienslbility. She recognizes
that the negie is here te stiy. She
knows that her honor, nor dear name,
and tier fame, no less than Iter prosperity,
will be measutcd by the fullness et tlie lustlce
she gives and guarantees te this kindly and
dependent race. She knows that every mis
take made and every error fallen into, no
matter hew Innocently, endanger her neace
and her reputation. In his full kuowledge
she accepts the issue without feat or evasion.
Hlie says, net boldly, but conscious or tlie
honesty and the wisdom or her convictiens:
'l.cave this problem te my werlviuir out. I
will selve it in calmness and deliberation,
without passion or prejudice, ami with roll
regard ler tlie unspeaUable equities it holds.
Judge uie rigidly, but Judge me by my

noticed that the Indian thief was rather shab
bily dressed, and going Inte the secretiry's
room suggested that an order lie given for
the puichase of a new suit for Hed Cloud.
The suggestion pleased Mr. Lamar, and lie
came out Immediately, shook haudsierdUlly
with the chief, and said te Mr. Judy u:
"Dress him up Una"
Indian Commissioner i'rice was then di
rected te issue an order en a clothing stere
for a new suit rer Hed Cloud, but te the as
tonishment of every body In the olllce Mr.
Price positively refused toelioy fhe order.
Secretaiy Lamar was informed of Price's
Insubordination, and thereupon made out
tlie order himself for the clothes. The cuise
or Mr. Prlce's refusal te obey his suticrler's
order is said te be owing te the l.itt that Hed
Cltud had declined te udl en him slnte his
arrival in the city.
