The Tariff Question.

The Winchester Times says ait is now
in order for the. Richmond Dispatch to de-
fine its position on the tariff ISSUE" But
the same paper gives the following excel
lent reasons why we should not do so. 1t
says:
"There is one point, however, on which
we entirely and cordially agree with the
UiSpdtch-that is that opinions on the
tariff should not be made test OF Demo
cracy i'm the coming elections. The coming
struggle is fraught with far more momen-
tOus issues. We cannot afford to divide
our forces on questions OF secondary im-
portance. When the State OF Virginia is
freed from the Malone incubus then will
be time enough TO settle our tariff differ
ences. We had much better be taxed MIL
lions by the protectionist than to allow the
coalition vampires to suck the life-blCod OF
Virginia's prosperity"
That is the only point we have made in
connection with the subject Of the tariff. II
is clear, therefore, that the Times is wrong
in calling upon us to define our position
il by those words it means that We ought
to discuss the tariff upon its merits. Why
should we do so! We could not hope 10
convince either the protectionists or the
free-traders that they are in the wrong
and so we should do nothing but the harm
of dividing the Democratic party into fac
tions.

Errors in the Use OF English. BY the late
WILLIAM Il. HoD0soN, LII. D., Fellow OF
the College Of Preceptors and Professor
OF Political Economy In the University
Of Edinburgh. American Revised Edi-
ton. New York: ID. APPLETON d Co.
1882.
Part I. contains spurious words and
words used with meanings other than their
own. Part III. treats Of the improper use
Of the several parts Of speech. Part iii.
treats Of the violations Of the rules Of syn
tax. Part w. treats Of errors in rhetoric.
A book rich in illustrative quotations.
These are worth more than the price OF IL.
We find few or no criticisms to which we
can object. Right before our eyes, how
ever, at this moment, Is single one 10
which we have never been able to give In
our adhesion. The late EPEs SARGENT, OF
Boston, wrote us letter many years ago In
reply to some remarks Of ours on this SUBJ
iect; but he seemed to be very doubtful
himself as to whether he was right or not.
He, like the author Of the book before us,
had laid it down as general proposition
that "universal truths or permanent ar
rangements" should always be expressed
in the present tense. For example, we
must not say, "GALILEO taught that the
world teas round" but, "GALLEO taught
that the world is round" In our opin.
ion it were as reasonable to object
to the "oratiO obliqua" OF the Lat
in. CALLED did not teach that the
world Is round, but that the world was
round when he spoke. I. "JoNEs taught
IN 1900 that the earth moved around the
SUM-" 9. "SMITH taught in 1900 that the
sun moved around the earth" According
to Mr.. HoDGsoN, the first Of these sentences
is correct, and the second incorrect. Why !?
Simply because he holds that SMITHS theo-
nv was wrong and JONEs's right. 1t fol-
lows that believer in the Copernican the
DRY must write, "CoPERNICUs taught that
the earth moueS round the sum-" but dis
believer must write, "moued," instead Of
"mOreS."

Pennsylvania.

Mr.. LEAR, OF Pennsylvania, whose letter
to Chairman COOPER we noticed yesterday,
was the president of the late CAMERON Con-
vention, in Harrisburg, that nominated
candidates for the various State offices, &c.
His letter is regarded by the Philadelphia
Telegraph as showing that Mr.. LEAR has
definitely made up his mind that the po-
litical potentialites OF the future reside
with the Independent Republicans, and
not at all with the StalwartS. 1t certainly
looks as.ii this might be what Mr.. LEAR's
letter indicates. The same journal remarks
that the western Pennsylvania woods seems
to be full Of Independent Republicans.
The anti CAMERON bolt appears to be
formidable indeed. We begin to hope that
the Pennsylvania Boss is no longer the die.
tator Of his party.

As matter Of interest to our farmers
Just now we publish the subioined report

in regard to an insect which has recently
made its appearance on the wheat in this
vicinity:
UNITED STATES Dept OF AGRICULTURE, J
DIVISION OF ENTOMOLOGY,
WASHINGTON, ID. c., June 6, 1882.
Hon. George b. Loring, Commissioner Of
agriculture:
Sir,-In reply to the communication OF
General W. c. Wickham, Richmond, Va,
dated June 4, 1882, / would say that the
insects sent by General Wickham are the
grain aplieS, QplieS arenac, now placed in
the genus Siphondphord. a long account
OF the insect is given in Asa Fitch's sixth
report on insects Of New York treasurer
New York State Agricultural Society for
1860, 1861, V. 30, p. S33-Sji), and 4 shorter
account in the eighth report Of the State
Entomologist OF Illinois, 1879, p. jl-55. As
the grain natures these insects will dis
appear, largely on account OF the attacks
OF their enemies, but no artificial remedies
are available in the field for their destruc-
ton, nor is great injury to be anticipated
from them. Respectfully,
&. V. RILEY, EntomOlOgist.

A Rare Opportunity to Promote
southern Material Development.


The New England Manufacturers and
Mechanics Institute will open its second
Exhibition Fair at Boston on the 9th OF
Septcmber next, to continue until the list
OF November following. Its building Is
beautiful In style, and affords eight acres
Of floor space. The managers are ex-
trAmcly anxious to have q very full exhibit
made OF southern products, both manufac-
turcd and In the rough, and as affording
the best inducement possible they make
no charge for space. Mr.. Pray, the ed
itor Of the Boston Journal Of Com
merce land no man has worked harder
than he has, in season and out, TO
press upon his people the question OF south
ern material devclopmenD made special
visit to Richmond two weeks ago In TINS
behalf, and as a result the Richmond and
Danyille system, the Chesapeake and Ohio,
and the Richmond and Allegheny will GER
tainly be there with full showing OF the
resources along their respective lines. And
as all OF our manufacturing interests look for
trade wherever it can be found, we are pur-
suaded that samples OF all the goods pro-
duccd in the Old Dominion could not find
a more profitable lodgment than this very
occasion will afford.
We have been assured by representatives
Of two OF the Oldest and most respected
newspapers In Boston that whenever their
columns contained any information bear
ing upon the resources OF the South the
demand for the paper on those days was
enormously increased. The truth is, in
the credit balance Of some Si00, 900 in
the savings banks OF Massachusetts,, there
are to be found many depositors with
holdings running from $4,000 to
$4,000, who would be too glad to
come South with it and start some pro-
ductive enterprise il they only knew where
to go. Seeing with their own eyes what
the South has to show "a full exhibit at
this fair Of the Mechanics Institute) will
afford the opportunity, and we shall find
migration in this direction OF the very sort
OF men we want. Nor will it be confined
TO Massachusetts,. The fair people are ar
ranging with all the railways and other
lines of transportation throughout New
England for rates so low rs to insure a
daily attendance Of not less than $4,000
visitors.
We regard this opportunity as one OF
such vital Importance to our material in
terests that we call upon our brethren OF
the press throughout the Commonwealth
and southwark to press its claims upon the
attention Of their readers. They cannot
possibly do them n better service. Full
information can be had by addressing Mr..
JOHN +. WOoD, treasurer, SO Hawloy
street, Boston, Mass.

Doctors Discussing Whether Guifeau
Should Hang.

The Medco-Legal Society OF New York
discussed the question on Wednesday
night, "What is the duty OF the President
OF the United States in the present emer-
gency in the case OF Guiteau?" There
were many arguments pro. and con. Is to
whether the assassin should hang.
The fifty millions OF American people
(said Mr.. ID. s. Riddle) could not afford to
hang a lunatic. A great nation could not
afford to do wrong to punish a wrong.
DR.. George NJ. Beard said that the
majority of the best experts throughout the
country believed Guiteau insane, and a
petition for clemency on that purely
humanitarian ground was now being
signed by large numbers OF them.
DR.. George Il. Avery characterized the
suggestion for a commission As a cry from
the doctors throughout the country who
had been sighted. Ii this was granted to
Guiteau every other murderer had the
same right.

office; but he does believe the success OF

Massey and the Big -Four are Democrats,
and will support the National Democratic
party honestly and boldly like Tucker.
Cabell, Wise, Garrison, and Barbour; and
II being such Democrat, Massey's past Do
sition as Readiuster gives him influence to
break the corrupt shackles that Malone has
fraudulently placed on many Democrats,
then We are for giving him chance to do
so. and Captain Whitehead will As gladly
and freely assist him in doing il as he
