CCmYAIIV KOmiLI SLMIUtt The most momentous question now heard throughout the Southern States is "What is to be the policy towards the South of the coming national Ad ministration So much depends on the manner in which existing issues are to be settled, and so vast are the interests at stake, that the Southern people can but look to the future with the greatest solicitude. The recollection of the direful and manifold misfortunes that over whelmed them when they. first fell into tbe hands of an unscrupulous sectional party are too fresh in memory to be soon forgotten even if the consequences of so much corruption and misgovernment did not remain to plague the country. The return to power of a Republican administration irritated and ineensed by previous defeat, and determined to secure by all possible means a protract ed con trol of public affairs, is naturally an event to enlist a profound and anxious Interest oa the part of the people and the States that are most seriously to be Fortunately, there is a great body of conservative and patriotic people in the Northern States in both Democratic and Republican parties, and to that we must look for a restraining influence upon the bold and aggressive schemes of tbe politicians. We trust far more in this than in any kindly disposition the Pres ident may manifest towards the South, although each benevolent sentiments are by no means to be under valued.

Our regard for conservative Northern feeling leads us to seek prominent expressions of it, because each case it is an assurance of an influence that will be eaerted in behalf of moderation and fairness in dealing with the South. For this reason we present to onr readers the following from the Boston Herald. It shows that the difficulties of tbe Southern situa tion are understood and appreciated, and it presents a view of the situation that must be Instructive to Northern readers who have through misinformation or ignorance of tbe peculiar condi tions existing in the South misjudged our people. Its importance will excuse the length of the extract: It la abost twelve years slnee the adminis tration of President Hayes was beenn. A feature attending tbe election of Geaeral Harrison to tbe prealdenov Is tbe evidence ot a purpose acaln to attempt the experiment ot eatabllahlng a Republican party of Importance In the Southern State.

Ia Jasuoe te President Have and those wbe advised aim. however, we believe their par-pose was lets to establish a psrty than to (store the Southern people of character and responsibility to the control ot tbelr publio affairs. Their effort waa a eom-Dieta soooesa In thia latter respect. Ia others it was a failure. It gave the Souta Immeasarably better government than that which waa displaced, bat in doing tale it became the death of tbe Republean party In that section.

Taere waa an opportunity to rebuild that party on a better basis. Unfortunately it eld not ecree with tbe seuemea of tbe politicians at the North that this should be done, xney preierrea to seea ajiutnep Prealdentln the bloody shirt la the contentions of Mortnern politician, ratber than to eatablian harmony at toe eouta on a baaia that preoluded this lasae. Ho they acriaeed the hopes of a Sonth divided in polities, and abased and ostracized tneir patriotic President, who had soagnt to settle tbe Southern problem in a more statesmanlike ana Cnrlsilaniiko manner. The ooantry has since gone ea lor tnree terms In the with a solid South la pontic a solid South made so by the machinations of Mortbera politicians, xnere naa not dm even tna attempt to break It except in two States; on the eonttary, it has been re ae an advantage to keep it aa It la. or tbe purpose of using It to carry Northern States.

Now, at laat, we are told tnat there may be a new policy attempted. After more than a decade has elapsed, the experiment made by Mr. Hayes is proposed to be renewed. It is a good symptom for the country. There onrht to be bat one' opinion among patriots with regard to It.

Tnera la no lasae betajeeu the Northern and Southern sections of country which is natural none that seed stand at all after tbe politicians bave withdrawn the hands wltn which tbey have fomented mischief in tnis relation. Wo do not forget tbe suppressed veto of the Sonth la making this statement. la the baneful fruit of politics aa applied there. Let on party at the North cease to organize the colored vote as a threat against the safety of aoeiety In the soutnern section, and the suppression of tbe colored vote wooUd end. That vote would then have to back It a party in whioh tne Intelligence and the property of that section sad contt-dense.

The oimoulty new Is that there 1 no auch oa ty. If publican statesmanship Is adequate to suoh an end, there will soon be a Republican party In tbe South which may hope to control the politics ef four ot it States at the outset and to lay the ground work for raining mere. Bat la the begianlnc the forees whlca opposed Prealdent Hayes In a similar patriotic purpose must be sent to the rear. Taere will be no room In such a movement for Senator Chandler ot New Hampshire, and, though have no dealgn to compare tae two bm la taelr oaaraoter and methods, wo are com polled to add that thero will bo ae room la it for Senator Hoar of aa-sacbosetta. It will call for honesty of purpose and for breadth et ihlsd la oontemplatlnr the Soata if it is to neeeed.

Taere mnat bo not only the sae-nSce of political aeaemlng; taere moil be forbearano In the assertion of what may bo felt to bo righteous indignation aa well. Far be it from us to question the sincerity of Senator Hoar, but hia temperament la not tho temperament of statesmansblp when hi feelings are enlisted. We appose even' his admirers will admit this. There are two idea to the Southern Question. and the Southern question cannot be settled exeept by men wao appreciate sua xao.

uaiortur nmteiv. Senator Hoar la incapable of so doing. He la, therefore, a nuoh of an obstacle aa ia Senator Chandler, who keep it open because be doe not want it settled. Bull less can tho solid Booth bo broke effectually on the low moral basla which, we regret to say, waa indorsed by Senator Hoar, aa wall aa bv Senator Chandler, la Virginia. The movement under General Mahona sanctioned by fbem was a wrens done the negro, a wrong done the whites of tbe Bontn, a wrong done the American nation.

It waa thoroughly corrupting. It demoralized the aenaaof rectitude of a whole Stat; badly lowered tho moral tone of the party that engaged in lu Setter a soua souta forever than a asiid South broken in such a way. The negro neoaea to taught honesty this directly taught him to bo dishonest. The Soata, la It terribly em barrassed finances, needed to be aided out of Its dlmeoiiie en tho basis of all the good faith possible to its creditors; thia movement ooealy tneuioated tho cheating of then.

A LESSOR IN SflirBPlLDlSQ. A year or more ago tbe Navy Department, when it was resolved by Congress to build a 6000 ton armored battle ship, advertised for plans for the cons traction of thevesseL Marine architects in all countries were Invited to send in designs and compete for. the prize of tl5 000, which was offered for the nLan which should be approved. Saba. quently drawings were submitted by various parties, but the plan chosen was one offered by the Barrow Shipbuilding Company of England, and the money was paid.

It was farther stipulated that do-' tailed working drawings were to be for which 3000 additional was to bo paid. The board of experts to which the selection of the plan was intrusted was composed of the follow ing naval officers and. civilians: Captain Ramsay, Lieutenant Knox. Constructor Bowles, Barjsas the yacht de- biuella Wjsan. formeflv in Cramp's shipyard, and Chief Engineer siderable dissatisfaction created by this award.

The designs of the Barrow Com pany were freely criticised, but it was thought that the errors pointed out were only apparent to those who failed to carry off the prize. The design which was rated a second in excellence was submitted by Lieutenant W. Cham bers of the United States Navy. The design furnished by the English company is now reported to bo a hope less failure. It appears that the Bar row Company was instructed to go ahead on the working plans.

Prepara tions were begun at the Norfolk navy yard, where the vessel was to be eon structed. Advertisement for msterial were issued, the bids in response re ceived and opened, and the contract awarded to Carnegie. The contract for material was let, but the contractor could not be furnished tbe size of the armor plates. This information he has called for many times, boit could not be given. The Barrow Company, which has changed its name to the Naval Con struction and Armament Company, has worked iadefatigably.

to supply the details for the construction of a vessel on the lines for which it. received 15, 000. One hundred and forty sets ft drawings have been received, but none of them, it is stated, were correct. Mis calculations were made whioh renderea it impossible to use any of the plans for a guide in the construction of the ves sel. At last it was discovered that the original mistake had been made in tbe general plans, and it wonld bo impos sible to carry them out.

The company sent word to the department that they could do no more that they had failed. The ship waa already named in ad vance "Texas." and tbe people were be ginning to think that they were soon to have a respectable war ship, but it now turns out that the arrangements made for her construction are wholly useless, and a new design will have to be chosen. By all means let us build our American navy upon an American plan. Our people' have brains enough to originate their own designs and skill and ingenuity to carry them out. Not only this, bnt we believe they can sur pass all the rest of mankind in making ships that will sail and fight.

They have given lessons to the whole world ia these matters, for their clipper ships and racing yachts were ever the fleetest, while the "Confederates invented the ironclad steam ram, and our Northern brothers offset that with the- revolving tnrreted monitor. Thns the two most important changes in the methods. of modern naval warfare are essentially American. There are also yet to be built the fol lowing vessels, for which plans are to be prepared two steel cruisers. 3000 tons displacement; one steel cruiser, 6300 tons displacement; one armored cruiser.

7500 tons displacement, and three gnnboats or cruisers of not more than 2000 tons displacement. Let us have no more foreign plans. The lesson just learned in the case of the Texas shonld bo fully instructive on that point. If we are to have an American navy, let it be so from keel to masthead. tbe product of American brains and in dustry.

1 Htf COTTO.N CROP i)F 1883. At this time every year the entire cotton trade become interested in the probable outturn of the American crop, as that is the principal source of the world's supply. Hence estimates of the yield from any well-known source or admitted authority are awaited with impatience, and when received are discussed with the liveliest interest. Last year at this time several estimates were published by well-known authorities, notably by the National Agricultural Bureau by the Cotton World, a local journal that succeeded 'the National Cotton Exchange, and by the London firm of Neil Broe, or, more properly, by Mr. Henry Neil, their correspondent in this city.

These several estimates were each entitled to consideration by reason of past suc cesses in closely approximating the crop, Last however, tbe two former authorities differed widely from Mr. Neil, their figures centering around six and a quarter millions of bales, while his indicated six and three-quarter millions. These radical differences foretold disaster and loss of statistical reputation to some one of the authorities, and, as the sequel proved, none of them were actually correct, although Mr. Neil's estimate came nearer to the mark than did those of the other authorities. The prestige acquired by last season's success ha attracted universal attention in cotton circles to Mr.

Neil, and his views as to the probable yield of the present crop have been awaited with considerable interest. According to. his nsnal custom Mr. Neil cabled his views some days since to his correspondents in London, and the announcement is now made from there that he estimates the probable yield of the present American crop at 7.200.000 bales, minimum. figure is several hundred thousand bales larger than the average of popular ideas, as a compilation of sixty estimates here averaged 6,900,000 bales, while ninety-one estimates in New York averaged about 7,000,000 bales.

The question now arises are Mr. Neil's conclusions less liable to prove wrong than those of the other crop authorities who were so serionsly in error last season, but had previously enjoyed a long record of successes. True, Mr. Neil waa nearer right than they last year, but at the same time jt must not be forgotten that his estimate failed in the 1SSS crop. On Nov.

24 of that year he announced 6,600,000 bales as the probable yield, and on Deo. 19 lowered his views to 6.SO0.OOO bales maximum and 6,100,000 minimum. These later views he entertained as late aa Feb. 8, 1887, and yet the actual crop turned out to be a trifle over 6.500,000 bales. In tbe face of this fact shonld greater relianoe be placed on Mr.

Neil's present figures than was usually awarded to the other authorities, especially in this case, when his minimum figure, is so far above the popular belief aa to the extent of the cropf -Mr. Neil has announced on more than one occasion that he followed an entirely different system in arriving at hi conclusions than waa usually followed by the official authorities. His opinions are said to be based as much on his own long expe rience as a cotton merchant as on the Information furnished by hi correspondents, while the official authorities are known' to depend for their views on the result of investigations by their accredited agents throughout the cotton belt. We do not wish to be considered as questioning Mr. Neil's ability; on the contrary, we freely admit it, and have confined onrselves to a friendly criticism of his estimate, now become publio property.

We have merely recited all the above facts to enable our readers to correctly judze aa to whether they should accept this esti mate as such, or as an oracular prediction a to the actual size of a crop not yet picked. 0XLT UfrUACT, BUI SATISFI. The Picayune is folly alive to the importance of every reasonable enterprise for attracting trade and travel to this city and of providing every facility for the moet advantageons accommodation of commerce and of visitors that may be brought here. A hotel constructed with every modern improvement and provided with all that can be demanded in the way of comfort and luxury is one of tbe most nrgent requisites. There is growing up in the United States a body of population possessed of large pecuniary means.

This wealthy class is yearly growing in numerical and financial strength, and the day is not. far distant when there will be in the United States more and greater private fortunes than in any other oountry on the globe. The wealthy Americans are proverbially lavish in their expenditures for all matters of personal gratification. They are able to live in the most luxurious style, and they demand, when they travel, everything that ean contribute to their comfort and enjoyment. Persons who havo traveled little in the United States in ten years past can have no idea of the scale of magnificence which has grown up in hotel accommodations in the principal center of population and at tho chief pleasure resorts, to meet the demands of the wealthy and osten tations olassea.

It ia that New Orleans may be abreast of the other metropolitan cities in the way of publio accommodations that the necessity for a palatial hotel arises. It is true, too, that where the plutocratio classes resort, thither also the people of more moderate means will flock. It is essentially an: American characteristic to wish to show up with the best. Peo-pole who cannot aspire to the inner circles of the social "swim" may at least sport in tbe margin of the select precincts, and they will approach aa closely as possible. Onoe let New Orleans become fashionable as a winter resort, once let the ediot go forth from the money kings and queens that this old city is the delightful place we know it to be, the multitudes will flock hither as they have been doing to Florida and California.

It is not only necessary to attract them, but we must satisfy all their demands for comfort and luxury. A successful solution of the problem means uncounted millions to the people of New Orleans.
