formidable coalition. They took HIM at
his word and elected Mr.. Hancock, the
Governor running behind his ticket con-
siderably. Considering the reliability OF

The New York World has discovered
the true inwardness Of Mr.. John Roach's
opposition to free ships. 1t is because on
account of the high duties on shipbulld-
inc materials the Clyde ship builder can
construct his vessels 30 per cent less than
can the American, and if the American
sbipowner buys his ships from the Clyde
buiIder. the said owner will save lot OF
money. but Mr.. John Roach will be minus.
This is the same principle which actuates
oil 1,rnfecfiOnists.

Death of Well known Carolinian

\ special dispatch to the Charleston
Ne,oS and Courier of yesterday announces
the death on Saturday afternoon at Co
lumbia. ;. c., of Hon. Robert w. Barn
well, in the SD year of his age.
This event removes one of the sold land
marks" of our sister State, for during his
life Mr.. Barnwell had played a somewhat
conspicuous part in her history. He
was born in Beaufort, where he resided for
many years, and during that time he was
probably as we'll known as any man in the
State. He was member of Congress in
1854, and though he took no very active
part in political life, he eyinced great in
terest in political affairs, and probably
no man, with possibly the exception of his
relative, Hon. r. Barnwell Rhett, did
more to foster and encourage the feeling
which finally led to the secession of South
Carolina than did he. His personal int1u-
ence was very great, and his family was
one of the most prominent within the
limits of the commonwealth.
In Mr.. Barnwelrs death there passes
away another of those ante-bellum typical
SOutherners, now unfortunately becoming
very scarce. Since the war he has
lived the retired life of private
gentleman, but he was universally re-
spected, and the news of his demise will
be generally received, not only in his own
State, but throughout this section OF
Georgia, where he has many relatives and
connections, with sincere regret.

The Problem of Reform.

The coming session of Congress Will
necessarily be short. There will barely
be time, Judging from the wonted industry
of our statesmen, to frame and pass the
necessary appropriation bills. The Re-
publican press is making much ado about
the imperative necessity of light
ening public burdens and passing
other remedial legislation. Suggestions
are numerous, and there is a manifest dis
position on the part of certain Republican
leaders to endeavor to accomplish some
thing that will rebound to the credit OF
their party. The reform upon which there
is the greatest measure of concord among
the Republicans is the proposal
of Judge Kelley to take up
and dispose of the internal revenue ques-
ton. But as to the length they shall go
there is a difference of opinion, and the
subject once preached in Congress will
precipitate a long debate upon the whole
question of taxation. The report OF the
Tariff Commission will also force such
discussion independently of Judge KEEL
ley's proposal.
Undoubtedly the Republicans will strive
to effect something, but the zeal Of the
protectionists will prevent anything con-
elusive being accomplished. Neyerthe-
less. there is certain to be a wide and
varied discussion of the question of taxa
ton as well as of other matters that will
be presented. The probabilities are that
little will be effected further than the
passage of the necessary appropriation
bot (
| the interests of the people are properly
guarded, there will be little leisure for
other matters.
In fact, the mission of reform has not
been cOnfded to the Republicans. The
opportunity was given them to meet the
requirements of the people, but they let it
| 90 by, and now the people have called the
Democracy to fulfill their wishes. The
Republicans can join in furthering the
| execution of this work, but they cannot
| claim credit for doing so, since whatever
| they do now will be done under compulsion.
| Since then to the Democracy must fall the
| task Of taking the initiative in the
| premises, it behOoves its leaders to take
! counsel as to the scope of the work to be
| done.
! The Democratic leaders are fully con-
sciOus of the difficulty and delicacy of
| their task, and the wisest of them should
step to the front. They should shape the
discussions that will arise in the present
| Congress, and which will be continued in
the next. The people declared for reform
in all directions, and to master the
difficulties of the problem there will be
required the highest wisdom and courage.
| If party calculations and class interests
are made secondary thereto, every de-
mand of the people can be satisfactorily
/ met.
In fact, we are on the threshold of an
era of reform. Its length will depend
upon the character of the schooling the
! people receive. To educate the people is
now the mission of the Democratic leaders
| and press. The interval that will elapse
ere the work begins can best be spent in
preparing themselves for the proper dis
| charge of their duties.
