brilliancy often, like that of the stars, as
seen through a rarer and clearer atmos-
phere than that through which we ordin-
arily view them, yet it was a brilliancy
which defied analysis and management.
Nor was it only his subtle qualities of
thought and style which kept his writings
from finding a place among the familiar
books of the average reader; but the
subjects with which he dealt were often
lofty and obtuse and removed from the
fields of thought usually occupied by
ordinary men, and hence with him there
was no soul sympathy. 'hHH
But when the final estimate comes to be
made up, upon Mr.. Emerson's life work
and the results springing from it, we feel
very confident it will be found that the
indirect influence which 1t has extended
has not only been vastly wider but more,
much more potent than the direct. We
imagine that Emerson has had an influ-
ence which has been felt by many minds
who were quite unaware from what
source it came; and this because it was a
reflux influence, reaching them by radia-
ton, as ii were, from other minds which
directly touched by Mr.. Emerson's
thoughts. There is no doubt Mr.. Emer-
sons work has been the fructifying of
some of the noblest minds of his genera
ton, and through the operations of these
minds, and of others taught by these in
turn, he has made an impress upon many
people to whom he himself was hardly
more than a name. AT the last worn out
by life's toll he died as TRANQUILITY and as
fearlessly, as a child might fall asleep;
and he has passed on to a more intimate
knowledge of those mysteries which,
during all his lifetime, engaged his deep
est and most profound thought.

EmersOn's Death.

The death of Ralph Waldo Emerson,
following only a few weeks behind that
of Mr.. Longfellow, is painful reminder
of the rapidity with which the older
school of American authors, the men who
began to write when American literature
was beginning to take shape, and who
have exerted a powerful influence not
only upon literature, but upon the lives
and thoughts of the people, are passing
away. Whittier, Holmes and Lowell
among poets, Bancroft among the prose
writers, and Winthrop and Phillips among
the great platform orators are all that are
left to us, and Lowell is the only one
among these who has not passed the
allotted boundary of three score years and
ten; while the sudden departure of
Emerson not only recalls old sorrows, but
suggests other losses which are sure to
come altogether too soon for the benefit of
the present generation.
The death of Mr.. Emerson does not
touch with real grief so wide circle as
did that of Mr.. Longfellow, as his in
fuence was not so directly felt by the
mass of the people. There was much that
was deterrent about the thought COMPEL
ing quality of his books, which to many
minds was so overmastering that they
never got in sympathy with him; there
wa, also, subtlety about his methods
of thought and an absence of sequence
and arrangement in his manner of group
ing ideas, which made it by no means easy
for an unframed and impatient reader to
follow him. But he was, nevertheless,
an excellent author to read by detached
passages. All over his writings there are
sentences that sparkle with brilliancy,
and these are seed-thoughts which are
wondrously fruitful il they only find a
congenial soil. But it requires pretty
robust mind to read and appreciate page
after page, and essay after essay, of bis
writings without any sense of WEAKNESS
II is true as Alcott aptly expressed II, that
''his logic was the logic Of galaxy
of brilliant stars" And there is brilliancy
on every page--a flashing and dazzling

know will amount to nothing. 1t is
in fact charging the senator's who
voted for the bill with being trick
sters, no more and no less than that,
which we do not think any sane man
believes. On the contrary the truth
is, that an overwhelming majority Of
those who believe in a tariff for
protection are in favor of thorough
revision Of the present law. The
business changes, of the past twenty
years, render such revision neces-
sary. There is no doubt that many
articles now paying duties should be
admitted free; and the duty on many
articles where it is best to retain the
protective principle is SO laid as to
make the computation of the amounts
due the government exceedingly
complicated. There is long list of
articles used exclusively by manufac-
turers on which the duty should be
established with reference to the
value of the manufactured article.
There are, also, many goods now
being imported on which the duties
may be reduced to the advantage of
both the Treasury and the people.
The sole purpose of the application
of the principle of protection is to
SO adjust the import duty that foreign
competitors, employing cheap help,
cannot food our markets with their
goods and thus involve our estab-
lished branches of manufactures in
disaster and to encourage the build
ing up of other branches that have
not yet acquired foothold, to the
end that the business of the country
may be in a prosperous condition
and the prices now paid for labor be
maintained. To ascertain this limit
is the proposed work of the Com
mission. And so far as we know
most Protectionists hold to this idea;
and we fully believe that the majority
of the Commission the President
will appoint, if the senate bill be-
comes law, will take that view of
it and revise the tariff in accordance
with that theory.
BY this method we believe a more
systematic revision can be secured
than can be obtained by the action
ofthe majority of the Ways and
Means Committee, and that such a
system will stand a much better
chance of being adopted by Congress
than would any measure which could
be presented by majority of any
House committee.
The President doubtless represents
the moderate element of the pro-
lection school of politicians, and
it is asserted, as if by authority, that
if he is called upon to name a Com
both schools and parties
will be represented, and the general
rather than special industries
will be represented. We favor the
Commission bill, because we believe
a tariff revision necessary; and so
believing we are of the opinion that
it will be accomplished sooner and
more Systematically if the work shall
be intrusted to such a body of men
as we have full faith the President
would select.

LITTLE Rock, ARK,
APRIL 81, 1882. |

AfKlL II, 1907.
EDITOR OF The 'rIMEs:-Although
stranger to the columns of your
estimable paper l trust l am not al
together stranger to its readers and
shall ask as much forbearance towards
my many deficiencies as you may find
in your heart to grant, while | fulfill
the promise made fully month ago
that you should hear from me in
my southern home.
l once heard father tell his son
"Never talk unless you have some
thing to say And having been
compelled to remain indoors on &C
count of slight touch OF malarial
fever--caused by change of climate
have been unable to revisit old haunts
or look up new points of interest and
have wisely maintained silence but,
having at last been to the races, |
take a new interest in life and feel
quite like picking up my pen again.
Yes, Little Rock is enjoying a new
sensation. The State fair grounds
were opened this week for the races
the first ever held here, and the city
is very gay; bands playing, boys
shouting, street cars decked out in
large advertisements telling you to
"Ho, TO the races" | don't know
why they say "Ho"-but they do
and offering fresh attractions at the
City Parks every night this week,
concerts, balls, music and beer
everything that he.people need, and
more, can be found in the parks.
Tuesday, the first day, brought out
only a moderate number of specta-
tors. The show Of horses was very
good. "Wildmoor," "Alsie," Click
DRY JIM" "Billy jim" and "Mr.
Garfield" were among the celebrities.
I take it for granted you have the
pleasure Of an acquaintance with
these intelligent animals-they are
not natives, | believe. The best time
was made by the small grey mare
Aisle. l made her my favorite be-
cause she was so homely and looked
so inferior among so many high-step-
pers, she won my smypathies directly.
So nice of her to reward me by COM
ing in neck and shoulder ahead Of
the honorable Billy G, gentleman
on whose speed many dollar had
been staked. Well, l have two new
pairs of gloves with which to console
myself, but | am not quite easy in my
conscience, l regret to say.
The second day was not quite a
success owing to the threatening
clouds, but enough. l do not con-
slider myself competent reporter of
turf proceedings and | will leave that
to the professionals. Tomorrow
there is to be competitive ride for
$500 stake, between the two famous
equestrians, Mrs. Mollie Burke, of
Omaha, and Mrs. Mollie Taylor, of

prehend that exhibition.
