The President on the Returning
Board Trials.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 12.—
Tb*; letter addressed bv the presi-
dent to Attorney-General Devens in
relation to the conviction of General
Anderson, and read to that officer
yesterday, was not intended for im-
mediate publication. The fact that
the president had written such a let-
ter was made known through a sen-
ator to whom the piesident, in con-
versation, communicated the infor-
mation. Although the full text of
the letter cannot be obtained at this
time, it is safe to say it is compara-
tively brief and is somewhat in the
spirit of the telegram that was ad-
dressed to General Anderson on the
4th inst. by Secretary Sherman, Sen-
ator Matthews and Representative
Garfield, Hall and White. The
president is of the opinion that the
prosecution against General Ander-
son is solely political; that it is not
countenanced by the best men of
Louisiana, and therefore is contrary
to their calm judgment; that the pro.
ceedings were in the interest of those
who strive to antagonize the two
parties in the State rather than to
harmonize them; that so far from
receiving the approbation of the
country the act will be condemned
by right thinking and patriotic men
everywhere, when they become ac-
quainted with the circumstances at-
tending the prosecution, as grave
constitutional questions may be in-
volved, and with which the general
government may perhaps have the
right to interfere. The president
submits the question to the Attorney
General lor his consideration.
The President plainly indicates in
this letter a disposition to revive the
old and detestable policy of Federal
interference with the enforcement of
State laws. What better right, we
would ask, has the government to
prevent the trial and punishment of
a violator of a State law in the South
more than in the North? The gov-
ernment would not dare attempt such
a thing in the latter section of the
country. The attempt would create
such a commotion as would forever
damn the man who inaugurated the
usurpation. We have never doubted
there was some sort of a bargain en-
tered into at the time Hayes was giv-
-en his fraudulent seat as President of
these United States, but we have had
our doubts as to whether Mr. Hayes
was a party to it. But this letter is
sufficient to awaken grave suspicions
that he is very anxious to cover up
something. It looks very much as
though the President is afraid the
trial of the Returning Board rascals
would bring to light facts that would
place the chief executive of the nation
in no enviable light before the peo-
ple. While we look upon him as a
usurper, in the sense that he is occu-
pying a station to which he was never
chosen by the States, we have thought
it best to let him serve out his time
rather than see the country disturbed
by internal discords. We have be-
lieved that Mr. Hayes was sincere
in his professions of civil service
reform, and in his Southern
policy. We have believed that it
was his wish to see equal rights
guaranteed to all the States, and the
powers of the Federal government
restricted to the plain provisions of
' the constitution. We must confess,
however, that this letter has a ten-
dency to shake our confidence in
both his honesty and his good inten-
tions, but if he ever attempts inter-
vention in Louisiana to suppress'ev-
idence of his own guilt or the guilt
of his aiders or abetters, he will find,
if we are not very much mistaken,
that he has stirred up a hornet's nest
that will nuike the Presidential chair
exceedingly uncomfortable. Ander-
son, Wells & Co.. are charged with
the gravest of crimes. If guilty, they
should be visited wit!) the seyerest
punishment} and we believe the
time has gone by when corrupt rad-
ical politicians and tricksters can use
the power of the Federal govern-
ment to defeat the ends of justice.
Base fraud were perpetrated in
Louisiana. Somebedy is guilty. Let
no guilty man escape. No evidence
should be suppressed, not even
though h leads to the White House.

SCRIBNER'S MONTHLY FOR 1877-78
Without recalling the excellence of the
pact, the publishersof Scribner's Monthly
announce for the. year to come the follow-
ing paper*:
THE PICTURESQUE SIDE OF AMER-
ICAN FARM LIFE.
This subject will be treategl in a series
of separate papers engaged from writers
who stand in the front rank among
Americans, both in qualities of style and
in keen insight of nature. Mr. R. E.
Robinson, authoi of a delightful paper on
" Fox-Hunting in New England" in the
January number, will represent the same
section in this series. John Burroughs,
whose papers on similar topics have been
a highly prized and popular feature of
Scribner, will write of Farm Life in New
York. Maurice Thompson, the poet-
naturalist. will describe the characteristics
of Western farming, of which but little
has been written. It is expected that the
illustration of this series will be of a re-
fined and typical character, commensurate
with the subject-matter. It is thought
that no paper or series of papers yet issued
in Scribner will so fully realize the con-
stant desire of the magazine to keep out
of the ruts, and, both in text and illustra-
tions, to obtain quality rather than quan-
tity, and to print fresh, strong and deli-
cate work from original sources.
" ROXY,"
by Edward Eggleston (author of " The
Hoosier Schoolmaster," &c.)' This new
novel will doubtless be the most import-
ant American serial of the year. The
first number was published' in November.
Those who have read it in manuscript
declare "Roxy" to be much the most
striking and remarkable story this author
has ever written. It is illustrated by one
of the ablest of the younger American
painterg—Mr. Walter Shirlaw, president
of "The American Art Association."
AMERICAN SPORTS.
Some of the most novel and entertain-
ing of these papers are yet to appear, the
scenes of which will- be in the West, the
Middle States, the South, New England
and Canada.
OUT-OF-DOOR PAPERS,
by John. Burroughs, author of " Wake
Robin,"'&c., will contain not only articles
on Birds, but on ''Tramping," "Camp-
ing Out," and kindred topics. Mr. Bur-
roughs' papers will begin in the January
number, the first being entitled "Birds
and Birds," and illustrated by Fidelia
Bridges.
ARCHITECTURE OF BIRDS.
Dr. Thomas M. Brewer will contribute
four exquisitely illustiated articles on
birds'-nests. which every lover of nature
will delight in. Dr. Brewer has probably
the finest collection of birds' eggs in the
world to draw upon for the illustration of
these papers.
THE SADDLE-HORSE.
Col. George E. Waring, with whose ex-
cellent work of various sorts our readers
are familiar, contributes two illustrated
articles on the horse. He treats specially
of saddle-horses and their use for pleasure
and for sport, including road riding, fox-
hunting and racing. The nature of the
English thoroughbred and that of his
Eastern progenitor (the Arabian) are
fully considered iu relation to these uses.
SAXE HOLM.
New stories by this popular writer will
be given in early numbers of Scribner,
beginning with "Joe Hale's Red Stock-
ings," to appear in January. This "nov-
elette" chronicles an episode of the lata
war for the Union.
" HIS INHERITANCE,"
By Adeline Trafton, so well begun in thf-
Midsutrmer Holiday number, willbecon-
tinued nearly through the year. It will
be found to be of increasing interest to
the very end.
"A KNIGHT OF FORTUNE,"
Hjalmer Hjorth Boyesen's new novel, will
be begun in Scribnei at the conclusion of
"His Inheritance." It will reveal a phase
of American society undreamed of by
most of our readers, and will be certain to
increase the reputation of the writer as a
master of English and of his art.
TJIE EDITORIAL DEPARTMENTS
will continue to employ the ablest pens in
America, and will include the present ad-
mirable summary of English publications.
Besides the special articles above enumer-
ated, the magazine will contain poems,
sketches, essays, reviews, and shorter
stories of the highest character. A large
practical reduction in price is made by an
increase in the number of pages.

anv other popular magazine at home or
abroad.

A MOVABLE
Planesphere of the Heavens
AT KVKRY MINUTB.
TO ASTRONOMY, WH ,\T A MAP IS
TO GEOGRAPHY.
This is an invaluable substitute for the
Globe, and is as much better as it s
cheaper. A good ten inch globe will cost
$20, and the Planesphere will solye the
problems much quicker and in many
cases with greater accuracy. There arc
two planespheres, making a complete set:
one shows all the constellations hand-
somely painted, the other the stars on a
dark ground like the sky. The two cost
only §6.
Take one of these instruments in your
hand any clear night, set it to the hoar and
minute marked by the clock, and you
have a perfect map of the visible heavens
before you, by means of which you can
locate all the stars arid constellations and
learn their names. Then turn to the al-
manac, learn the situations of the planets
in the constellations. Now with the aid
of planesphere, you can easily find them
in the sky. Ninety-nine problems in as-
tronomy can be solved by this ingenious
instrument. For the planespheres, or fur-
ther information, address the inventor,
