tFrom the New York Iimes.l
There can be no doubt that the demand for
civil service reform and for revision of the
tariff which shall mean not simply a reduction
of revenues but a radical change Of policy
had much to do with the Republican revolt.
Republicans who believe in reform in the
whole administrative policy of the Govern
ment are not going to be brought back to the
support of the party unless the purpose which
they have at heart are to become its purposes.
The most enlightened of Democrats see plain
ly enough that their party mus. meet the ex-
pectation of the people in some fair degree in
dealing with these same questions Of reform
or it cannot reap the fruits Of the "of year
victory. But their party is by no means
united on these questions, aud when it comes
to dealing with them, What effect upon its
solidarity may be produced by differences of
opinion no man can calculate Whether, af-
ter all, there must not be a reform party,
harmonious in sentiment, united in purpose,
and definitely pledged to the specific work TO
be done, before We eau hope for any great ad-
vance, is question that presents itself with
new force in view of the late upheayal and its
probable cons, quences.

Daniel Webster wrote several poems during tn
early years Of his manhood, one Of which Emerson
deemed worthy Of place in his "Paruassus." Tn
publishers Of the Fryehurgh Oration, delivered eight
years ago the Fourth Of July, append TO it, anon
other things, poem written by Mr.. Webster on tn
death Of bis little son Charles in 1875 Some Of tn
stanzls are remarklble.l
The staf on which my years should lean
Is broken, ere those years come DER me;
My funeral rites thou should'st have seen,
But thou AIT In the tomb before me.
Thea rear'st to me no filial stone,
No parents grave with tears beholdest;
Thou art my ancestor, my son,
And staud'st in heavens account the Oldest.
on earth my lot was soonest cast,
Thy generation after mine;
Thou hast thy predecessor passed,
Earlier eternity is thine.
l should have set before thine eyes
The road to heaven, and shown II clear;
But thou uutaught spring'st to the skies,
And leav'st thy teacher lingering here.
Sweet seraph, would learn Of thee,
Aud hasten TO partake thy bliss
And oh, TO thy world welcome me,
As hrst welcomed thee to this.

The Scene of the Fire.

A CRITIC reporter went to the scene OF yes
terday's disastrous fire this morning to pick
up any further Information than could be OBJ
tained yesterday, and ascertained that very
little more was known on the subject. Mr..
Baum was found standing in front OF his store,
and, in response to inquiries, stated that he
had returned to the city late yesterday after
noon and had gone directly TO his store, where
he found that water and smoke nearly filled
the upper floors, and the water had leaked
through in such quantities that the stororoom
on the ground floor was flooded to the depth
Of a foot.
He said he could not tell anything definite
about his losses; that his entire stock was
more or less damaged, and that his observa-
tions sustained the accuracy OF tho estimates
given in last evenings CRITIC. He said a
temporary roofing had already been placed
where the tin roof was destroyed. The store
will not be opened for several days. In regard
10 the insurance, Mr.. Baum said THE CRITICS
statements were correct, as far as he knew,
and that all his losses were covered by in
