When men who ne 'er were made for anv good,
Who could not do kind deed should they try,
Draw 10 an end their uDimportsnt lives
And living ike the beasts, so like beasts, die:
They are not mourned. The world forgets them
soon. s..r.. f..t. .I.
And quickly others come to fill their place;
On, on, they go in dread march to the tomb,
With no sweet mem'ries for their friends to trace
Not so with thee, who vert so rich in mind,
Generous in heart, inspired, gifted one;
God gave thee genius for the good of men.
And men win mourn because thy works I'M
donel
For thou who might have been most dearly loved,
And envied for thy rare and noble mind,
Gave TO the world the shadows Of thy life,
Len but an echo of thy power behind.
Now all the richest offspring Of his mind
Wen strew as flowers along his way of pain;
And as we catch the beauty Of his thoughts
Wen try to think his work not all in vain

THE SILVER QUESTION HN ENG
LAND.

We call the attention of our read.
ers, such as have been interested in
the series of papers we have pre-.
pared for them on the silver ques-
ton, to the following letter address
ed by correspondent to the London
Economist.
1t will be remembered that, in
one of our latest papers on the SUBJ
ject, we expressed the opinion that
the nations of Europe would be
compelled to adopt the policy so
ardently urged in this country, and
restore Silver to the mopetic ftlnc-
ton it had held for cent before
the panic of 1873. We did not anti
cipate that England would be
the first to M RaRr were we
sanguine that she would move at
all. That nation adopted an exclu-
sively gold Standard as early as 1916,
and though that policy entailed ter
rible difficulties in England during
her period of resumption she has
since suffered less from it than
might have been anticipated for
two reasons. From 1916 to 1873 she
was the only nation restricted to
the exclusive gold standard and
thus an immense mass of silver was
used in the currency of the world,
SO as to preclude such spasmodic
struggle for gold as exists since 1873,
and while other nations were using
silver, Germany even making it
her exclusive standard) England's
vast commercial transactions ena-
bled her to attract what gold she
needed into the channels of her
circulation. But when in 1873, sill
yer being universally demonetized
all nations entered the market in
quest of gold England herself felt
the effects of a circulating medium
too restricted for the eXigencies of
the worlds commerce. Another
reason for England's suffering less
thar other nations would have done |
from the effects of a single standard |
was the possession of vast colonies |
in Asia, in which silver was the ex
elusive standard, thus supplement-
ing and balancing her gold standard |
at home. She was by this means
virtually in possession of a double
In 1875 and '76, however,
peculiar circumstances checked the
commercial activity of India and
cut off the demand for silver there,
thus reducing England to the exclu-
sive gold standard, practically as
well as theoretically, and that at a
time when all Europe and America
was in the same strait. Hence
from that time to the present
has felt the same depres-
sion in her business as the other
arising from the same cause,
a scarcity of circulating medium
arising from the impolitic disuse
of one of the metals which had been
for that purpose. The let
ter we now print will not long, we
think, be solitary instance of re-
newed demand in that country for
the double standard:

Desperate Tactics.

To such desperate straits are our good
brethren Of the fiat faith reduced that
they are now engaged in trying to seduce
democrats in Henry county to vote for the
national candidate for state senator. as the
most probable way of defeating Ford the
republican candidate. We have too much
confidence in the honesty and good faith
and we may add political foresight and
judgment of the Henry county democracy
to believe they will be caught by any such
republican chaff Such course on the
part of Henry county democrats would
ensure the election of Ford beyond a
doubt If the democrats of that county
will make as honest and determined an
effort to elect Lewis Wilson, who is by all
odds the ablest man of the three candi-
dales as he certainly is the most honest of
the three. and DR.. Todd. as the democrats
of this county are making and will
continue to make until the
close of election day, both
of these gentlemen will be elected. Any
wavering of the democracy of Henry
county may possibly prove fatal to both of
the candidates and to the future harmony
OF the democracy in this senatorial district.
This position was offered to Henry county
and declined with the positive assurance
that they would support any one whom
this county should name We have placed
an able. competent and honest man in that
position on the ticket, and it is the plain
duty Of every democrat to support him in
stead of listening to any scheme the oppo-
sition candidates may concoct, The ma
tional party is waning in this county.
About all there is left Vt it since the o.,
tober elections is wind, disappointed Or
gan, and few desperate candidates ready
to promise anything for vote. We be-
lieve the Henry county democrats will
make good record for ell the democratic
candidates on the ticket.
