DEATHS

In this town, on the 9TH inst, Mrs Hannah
TAYLOR, cOnsort Of the late VIM. Taylor Esq, Of
this County, aged about % years.
Suddenly, on Friday evening, eth inst, VIII
liam Short, Esq, of this town, aged about e.
years.
In consequence OF the suddenress of this
decease, the Coroner deemed it proper TO
make an Inquest, which being had, the
iurv retired a verdict of Died, by the
visitation of God"
Mr.. Short was a native of Fitc-shire IN
Scotland, where he lived till his emigation
to this country in 1918. He landed at
Boston, but did not long continue there.
lie came South and got employment first
on tie National Turnpike, then under con-
strucion, in the neighbothUod Of Han
cock, In 1917 he came to Shepherds
town, and after short period contracted
for making the Turnpike hence TO Smith
field, which he completed, laying at the
same lime the foundation of his fortune
to he afterwards augmented by habits Of
industry, 1rugality, and the exercise of
those saguciOtls qualities 70 well known
as elements in The Scottish character. He
never married, though by no mrnu- unin-
pressible, and CUTIE fond of Irr society of
the intelligent and agreeable vi Ihe sex.
Though close and cautious in his business
relations, he vas far from illberal in quar-
tiers where he deemed his assistance re-
quired. He vas social and friendly in his
manners, and took a real interest In the
improvement and welfare Of tie place of
hisyesidcnce.
For some motifs past he has been OBJ
served to maniies' signs of more than usual
lecblencsS, and yet he made little change
in his usual active habits.
Though not COMMUNICATE ne was a
firm and steady supporter of the Presbytc-
rian church in this town. his hand and
purse being always the first in every good
work.
BY will, which we understand is dated
1912, his property is directed to be sold
by his Executor, Henry Berry, Esq, for
the benefit of his only sister, residing IN
Par maaibuS.

policy shall substantially consist of jus:
such maxim. At such times isstesd of
the mild rule Of justice and fair dealing,
which always allow the free expression of
private opinion, wrong demands silence
and submission to its will, on pain Of some
infllcton or priyation. Political wrong
doing, as it is but form of moral evil, so
II is instnctively hostile to freedom of
thought and expression, for it fears to en-
counter the indignant frown of that moral
sense which is the glorious distinction of
the free human spirit.
We have now gone far enough to have
obtained means to discriminate between
the claims of this or that party upon our
countenance and support. If we find one
party appealing to the great principles of
equal right and justice in behalf of its
views and purposes; if it show a readi-
ness 10 submit lis measures to the coeI
and unprecedented sentiments of men, and
willing to abide judgment from such sour
ces, then that party has claims which we
must respect, or be faithless to our own
On the other hand, if we
discover party making appeals to the
sel6shness aud Partially that form too
large portion of our degenerate nature,
if their chief dependence is made to lie in
arousing and gratifying bad passions, low
objects, and inordinate desires, then it be-
comes not merely patriotic but moral
and almost a religious duty to expose and
resist il, in every way consistent with self
respect.

CONFESSION OF FAITH.
POLITICAL-SO. II.

Feeling sure of our ground that nothing
can be politically right that is morally
wrong, we hesitate not to say that una
nmity in political opinion ought to pre-
vail, rather than political discussion. 1t
is only seldom, perhaps not o(tener than
two or three times in a century, that in an
established government questions of pure
" scientific or economic character are
presented for public solution.
We admit that the question of Tariff
might be deemed such one, but with al
most this single exception the final char
acteristics Of public measures are purely
moral.
1t is this which lends point and ANNA
ton to the invectives Of the party press,
for each strives to put the other in an un-
favorable moral light, as infringing upon
some law or principle of truth, justice,
honesty or that duty every man owes to
his own country before all others. To
atlix a stigma on his opponents is the pur-
pose of the partizan writer, for if the moral
sense of mankind can be aroused against
any man or set of men, their influence
must thenceiorth perish.
TO the full operation Of orr leading
principle in sound and true politics, false
idea has long presented resistance. But
happily this rs diminishing all over the
earth, and the universal rule Of right is
more recognized than ever before. 1t is
this, that the quality or virtue called pa
triotism, permits Us to aggrandize our own
country at the expense Of any or all others,
if an opportunity to do so shall be offered.
Now nothing can be moro immoral than
this. and vet times have been and may
vet come again, when measures Of public
