i In aletter from Senator Voorhees,,
received in Terre Haute, Ind, on
the 22d-inst., he defines his position
OIL the tariff, as set forth atiAtlanta,
as follows: " .Jhat said there was
upon mature reflection. | expected
to be acriticised, and for thatreason |
asked no one to share my respohsi-
bility by consulting in advance.
The platform of 1880 was a violent
departure on the subject of the
tariff, and has 10 precedent in the
history of Democratic platforms
adopted in national conventions. l
have examined them all The dee
laration for "a tariff for revenue on
" was never before made in natl
Onal Democratic convention, and is
burlesque on common sense.
Every tariff on imported goods
necessarily protects something
manufactured in the United States.
To avoid all protection we must
abolish all tariff and resort to direct
taxation. The great question while
we have q tariff for revenue is to so
adjust it as to afford the protection
which it always carries to those in
terests which need and deserve pro-
lection, and TO withdraw it where it
is not needed. This was my posi-
ton at Atlanta No more and no
Hess. We are compelled to have a
tariff for revenue, and protection Is
one of it's absolute incidents, from
which there is no escape, and while
this state of things exists l want
the West and the South to embrace
the advantages which arise from it.
We lost Indiana in the last three
weeks Of the campaign Of 1880 on
the absurd issue made by our plat
form on this subject. In my opin-
ion that issue will never again be
presented in that form by Demo
cratic State or national convention,

men who have styled themselves
free traders. The policy | declared
will make the South the richest
part of the globe, and will promote
the best interests of Indiana. BY
living, moving and acting in view
of the present interests, and not by
clinging to mere theories without
any possible application, the Demo
cratic party has a great future, but
not otherwise.

DR.. Curry, agent OF the Peabody
Fund Association, speaking recently
at St. Adams, Vt, made the point
that ''the South, before the war, in
proportion to white population, tax
ing man for man, sustained a larger
number of colleges, with more pro
tessOrs, more students and a greater
annual cost, than was done in any
section of the Union. The same
is true of academies and private
schools. If the census Of 1860, as
taken by the United States author
tiles, be correct, the white popula-
ton of the Northern States in that
year was nearly 100000 and Of
heSouthern only little over 8,000,-
600. At that time the North had
205 colleges, the South 272; the
North l, 407 professors, the South
,488; the North had 29,044 stu
dents, the South 27,055 the North
paid for these colleges S1,514,293,
the South 81 ,662, 419." He deplored
the present illiteracy of the cOlored
population of the South, and seemed
to imply in bis remarks that he was
in favor of aid from the United
States government. He can hardly
have reflected, however, that the
effect of such action in the present.
state of our civil service would be to
supplant the State schools or reduce
the influence of local sentiment up
on the conduct and teachings of
schools to a minimum, unless, as is
suggested in some quarters, the
money appropriated by Congress
for education in the South be hand
ed over to the State authorities, to
be used according to the Judgment
of the State authorities. In word, |
national" schools in the South, it is
feared, would be but q reproduction
of the Freedman's Bureau, a politi-
cal propaganda.

Our esteemed contemporary. the
Sparta Erbositor, in speaking Of
forest timbers, says that during the
last three years White county has
reaped a rich harvest from her tim
Der, greater, doubtless, thany many
Of US realize. The amount paid out
for timber, labor and hauling. dur
ing the past three years will aggre-
gate seven hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars. And the greater part
Of this has been received for the
timber just as it stood on the
ground, and which was heretofore
considered almost worthless. TAX
ing the present years taxes as an
average, remarks the Erp0sitOr, for
years to come, it will be seen that
this amount (three quarters of a
million) will pay our State tax 223
years and the whole tax, State.
county and poll, for GA years. And
the end is not yet, for there is a
vast amount Of valuable timber In
White county not yet cut down
The firm Of Kinsey Il Butler have
one tract Of $500 acres on which
there is sixteen million feet of tim
ber-pOplar, walnut and ashland
to move it will require the expend-
ing Of about a million dollars. II
will be seen from the above that
there is money in timber when prop
erly handled by the right sort OF
men who mean business, and as the
forests of East Tennessee abound
with a good growth Of poplar, ash
and walnut, we don't see why some
OF our enterprising capitalists could
not embark in the timber specula
ton and make money themselves
by the operation.

TYNER AND THE SI,AR-ROUTES.
1t is stated that Judge Tyner,
First Assistant Postmaster G eneral,
is preparing a document, to be sub
mitted to the President, with regard
to his connection with the Star
routes, in which he will claim the
credit of being the first to call at
tention to the Irregularities, and
will assert that from his report Post
master General James obtained the
first knowledge Of the subject. Post
master General James said that he
had no means Of knowing what
claims or assertions Judge Tyner
would make, and that, until he
should have something more tangi-
bic than newspaper reports Of Judge
Tyners intentions, he must decline
to talk on the subject. 1t is learn
ed, however, from a trustworthy
source that Postmaster General
James did not obtain his first knowl-
edge of the Star route irregularities
from Judge Tyner's report, but that
his attention had been called to
them by other persons a month or
six weeks before that report was
shown to him. And then, again, he
might have read Senator's Beck's
full exposure to those irregularities
in the Congressional Record of
March, 1880. Judge Key, ex-Post-
master General, was interviewed
last week by a reporter of the Amer
lcan relative to Judge Tyner's al
legged connection with the Star-rOute
frauds. Judge Key said that in
1879 he sent Mr.. Tyner to investi-
gate the service on the Pacific coast
Mr. Tyner returned in the autumn !
and submitted a written report.
Judge Key read it and told Mr.. Ty- |
ner that if the report were publish
ed there would be row, that Mr..
Brady would feel that his territory
had been invaded. He advised Mr..
Tyner to have a conference with
Mr.. Brady, and said that he belivcd
Mr.. Brady to be honest and capa-

.llEPHODLsN IN ENGLAND


MOncure ID. Conway in the same
letter from which we made an ex-
tract last week, makes the startling
announcement that Methodism is on
the decrease in England He also
says there is a noticeable contrast
between the appearance of the En-
glish and American members of the
Ecumenical Conference The form
or had a toadying sort of look strik-
ingly in contrast with the outspoken
and Independent speech and bearing
of the Americans. 1t will be well
enough for the church on this side
of the water, comments the Frank
lin ReUie9 and Journal, to treasure
up in their memories and hearts the
solid reasons given by this sensible
and impartial observer for the de-
cadence of Methodism in the land of
its birth and on q shore where it was
fondly hoped it had taken vigorous
and lasting root Wesley himself
never quilted the communion of the
Church of England, and his follow
ers consequently never felt all the
defiance of spirit and independence
of action which characterized the
American members of the family
who revOlted successfully against |

so soon rs people there become Me |
thodists they become rich, and just
so soon as they become rich they
apostatize and join the communion

der the chartering @gis Of the gov

dists do very we'll in England just so
long as they remain poor and loyal

they seek rich company and turn
their backs upon the very class that
the faunder of the Christian religion
sail should be especially attended
to. They get above their primitive
ways and want to ride in fine car
riages and keep up with the money
power. So it win be in this coun-
try whenever our preachers forget
the examples of Asbury, McKendree
and McFerrin and hunt for easy

ANOTHER INK BROKRN.


To the Editor Of The Morristown Gazette:
One by one the golden links that bind
together HE generations are being bro
ken On Wednesday evening, the 10Th
inst, Mrs Frances j. FulkcrsOn, relic
of DR.. Jas. F Fulkerson, passed away.
She was the emily surviving sister of the
late General Robert Patterson, so we'll
known to fame, and the mother of Gen.
2. q. Fulkersou, Thomas FulkersOn and
Mrs. Scarborough, Of this place.
She was a woman of mark-of such
elemcntals Of character as TO make her
notable, relate Eera IA you might. AS
characteristic Of her family she was
positive in her convictions, intelligent
and charitable in her conclusions. In
all things touching society, religion or
politics, she had her OPTIONS and ad-
hered to them with Spartan will.
For half a century she was the de-
voted Christian member of the Pres
byterian church. Her attachment for
her churchly relations was tenacious,
and amiaSle graces of the humble fol
lower Of the blessed Mast r. Her lie
was a grand one Of three score and SIX
years, and full of those hOnors that hal
low the memory of the loved dead. How
marked her impress on her age in the
most worthy family she reared and the
influence exercised on those whom she
contacted. Away down the years, after
the tombstone that points to where rests
her honored dust, has mingled with its
surrounding clay, and her name has
been dropped from the lips of friend
ship, her gentle and heroic virtues will
liYe-live in the lives of others.
1t is the day of affection that brings
to light the heroic elements of charac-
ter. Here her grandness shone out pa
tiently without murmur; she endured
a thousand deaths. Her submission was
Chris.-like. Time and again, as all
along her bright christian life, did her
friends draw sweet comfort from her
grand utterances. Especially in TIE
hour that tries the souls or men--when
she spoke back to us as from the shad-
ows of the beyond.

will is His will-fOr mine is swallowed |

more for me; bat let me go; to depart

words that closed the shadows from her
leath. chamber, and made graudly lu-
ninous Ter last days. She drew not
