Wheeler, • Frye and Hoar--to elect Hayes, * makes Haves', best -friendatrembla'at,the thought . off his 0- tering the White Hodge by anoli'Meana. 'lle time for settling this matter by' the aid of old passions or memories is'elearli gone by. The situation is one which needs hard, manly- thinking, and manly facing of and disaPpointing facts. We trust most sincerely, :too, that the' crisis may not pass` , without' , fiiing th public attention on the point that the conduct ,:of the administra,tion since JaCkscin's tic and more,,particularly : ,of General Grant's administration, in eon / stituting itself a wing of the party in-pow er rather than the trustee of the nation , and in employing the whole ,body of of: fieeholders: from the president down, ev. en to the law-officers with their semi in-' dicial functions, as electioneering agents, deprives us v at a crisis- like this, of The presence of any power capable. Of arbi trating, between 'the - conflicting parties, or capable of preserving order without exciting suspicion of- sinister designs.— This 'really constitutes the most Bilious nspect in the presentsituation. The'presi dent and cabinet ought to be in a juncture like this, a body in whose fairness and impartiality the whole people would have implicit confidence, and whose use of the public force would be generally ascribed,. to a hearty desire for peace and fair play: But what are the facts ? The president has made himself for years past•the ac tive supporter or coadjutor of one of the Southern factions which has rossessed the machinery of state government, and has the counting of the votes in the states which now have the deeision of the presidential, contest' in their hands.— The attorney general, who advises him on the legality of his interference by troops or, otherwise in the South, and who'directs the marshals who represent the United States at the polls, is, fresh from the stump, on which he hits been denouncing opposition North and South as 'enemies and capable of any villainy The secretary Of the interior is actually the director of' the canvas of orae of : the two ,parties beside helot a man notorioiii *for the violenee of his language and temper 'and 'the thorough unscrupulousness of , bis-poliiicsi and has :been absent from his post for -three months superintending a series of: most inflanimatory addresies to the public` cal to destroy 'all 'spirit of concilia tion or compromise bet Ween the parties who are now. contending in hot , blood for the mastery. • The result is tilat,,when the president and his Usiaistants are called bj , the, decent, law-abiding ani peace-loging 'portion of the community preserve order and keep down the angry passionS of= the Pr); ?artisans, 'their appearance on the scene with the national point- only in tensiOes Ntternessafilinereisit.iiiipickin.

Washington, Nov. 24, Hon. Alex. H. Stephens, of Ceorgia,, arrived here today and has taketi:perniti= - nent,quartmfor :the winter at tae Na tional. He has beat on the road three days, 'btiVing ionaci 'tip easy ,Magee, but has made the lonTney with much less fa tigue than was to have been expected. He looks much emaciated, but his atten dant reports him heavier than he has been for , two years. Although,.wearied with his long journeY he welcomid your correspondent cordially and tilked freely 'of. the , political situation. Ris voice, though light, is clear, the tones firm, and as he 'talked of the country's crisis ,his eyes. flashed with the old flame, his words came with the old readiness, and ,the wan hand' would ocCastenallY'sween out with the old emphatic gesture. At first; when asked for his views on the sit uation for publication in the North, he said, with a nature of sadness-and af fected gaiety : don't think niropin ion 'would have much weight with them. They- would.not believe me." Then he adc:ed, with alight ; laugh, "They are in the condition of thoie peoOle mentioned in the Sctipture—qhough ..one. should arise from the dead, yet would they not believe." When assured - that . 'public opinion had changed a good deal in the last ten years he replied, ; "Yea, that is SO ; there is a wonderful change going on there, and. many 'men now be lieve what they hardly dare acknowledge, even to themselves." Of the outcome of the present election contest, he expressed . himself hopeful that justice would prevail, deprecated all extreme and belligerant talk, and said he 'did not think there would be any , con fliet, although he did feel that the crisis was one of the most serious which our government has had to pass through. In, answer to a direct question as,to wheth er there was any , danger that the South, or any faction in the South, were medi tating armed resistance, he replied warm ly and with crest emphasis "If there is any such feeling or intenticn any where 'in tne South,'l don't know it.. If there is a single man any where in the South who is really talking in earnest of any such thing, I have yet to learn of him or of uny one who knows of: him., I do 'not believe there one. know the peo ple of the Smith, as a people, have no such idea." %What is. the feeling there, especially in South Carolina and Mori da ?" "They are, of course, indignant at the outrage which is being attemnted ; they cannot believe that the people of the country will tolerate such an, infamous outrage on a free government and they are anxiously,-but quietly, awaiting the resale' He further said that he had time .north partly to get ideated in his .winter quarters before the cold weather set in t .but,also for the purpose of doing, what he could to counteract the impres sion that the South was nursing the spiv. it of new rebellion. That. idea h as beeti widely circulated .at the North,- lie said: and added, with indignant 'energy "It has been and s . their whole stock 'in trade." • ' The latest 'information. of the result in .Florida which 'he received • be fore,: he, left home was that the Retiii:ning' Board were sure tO retain the' Tilden electors elected: by about-seven hundred niajOiiti.'' -- The South Carol ins.

Of the real danger which did exist, that if the Returning Boards should count in Hayes, Congress,, get in-. itti a dead-lock, recourse .'be bad to force of F arris, he spoke - earnestly. -He could not belie7e _however, .that that ex . tremity could be reached.' ~ If a conifiet shotild , .;epsue, , : he said, it will be civil - Wailfai the succession.
