DEATH OF DARWIN.

The greatest philosopher and natural
ist of this orany previous age has passed
away.
r. w. DARWIN thought further and
expressed himself more comprehensive
~ in his special line ofexplorations than
any other man who has lived.
His vocabulary is as original and
graphic as are the many strange and
suggestive ideas he has evolved from
the natural world. And whatever
may be said of his philosophy
it is not open to the criticism of being
Illogical. If he has reached wrong con-
illusions, it is the fault of his premises,
for he travels to them by logical Sc
quences with which the best scientific
minds his generation have not dared
to take issue.
His works have been the subject Of
more reviews aud discussions than any
other literary productions of the present
age. Especially is this so of his three
later ones, "The origin of Species by
Means of Natural Selection" 1.-THE
Desc ent of Man and Selection in Rela-
ton to Sex" and "The Expression of
the Emotions in Men and Animals"
There is peculiar fascination, as
we'll as plausibility, in the mode of his
reasoning in his attempts to establish
what appear to be, abstractly, the most
unreasonable things-the descent, for
instance, of man from hairy quadru-
ped. And by the same line of argument
does he essay to account for all the di-
versities of life, exalting the operation
of natural laws in the development of
every species of life to the extent of do
ing away with any creative fiat.
Though the great philosopher is dead,
ne has left behind the evidences of the
most original and inquiring intellect
this age has produced, and the product
of which constitutes the most curious
and valuable contribution to science in
the whole field of literature.

ENORMOUS ATTENUATION.

The despotism of the money kings,
such as GOULD and VANDERBILT, furn-

We are only in the beginning of the
exercise of this sweeping deSpOtism. In

1850 $5,NO, 600 was wealth; in 1870 four
times this challenged attention; in 1882
eight cipheTS stand to the right of the
significant figures which express the

the control given men over these enor-

the fruit Ofdoubtful practices, is as abso-
lutte as the ownership in a bill which q
man twists over his fingers. 1t is not
possible that this should always last.
The sacred right of every man to the
fruit of his industry and the savings of
his thrift, lies at the very root and
source of q sound civilization, but the

AN ISSUE MORE IMPORTANT THAN
CHINESE BILL.

At a meeting of one of the Democrat
ic organizations in New York city, the
other day, the following resolution call
ing for the abolition of the internal rev.
enue system of taxation, was mani-
mOusly adopted:
RCSOlrCd, That We advocate the abo-
lition of the internal revenue system of
taxation, as an unnecessary burden
upon American industry and business:
imposed as q necessity of war, it is now
continued to provide q fluid for waste.
full and corrupt expenditures, and to
keep in office five thousand ofticehold-
ers. In the face of yearly surplus rev.
enue of Sl50,0O0, 600, the Republican
Congressional caucus has voted that no
substantial reduction of taxation shall
he made.
This resolution expresses, in sub
stantial degree, the feeling, not alone of
the New York Democracy, but the
party throughout the country.
1t is but just to say that the people Of
this country have no greater grievance
or cause ofeomplaint, at this time, than
that of carrying the unnecessary and
heavy burden represented by the in
ternal revenue taxes.
The Republican party, through their
representatives at Washington, have
deliberately determined, in caucus,
neither to abolish nor curtail the in-
ternal taxes. They propose to continue
the system uAehangedexeept, probably,
in q few uRimportant particulars. They

THE leading newspapers in the coun-
try, without exception, are urgent i'll
their demand that Congress should in
tervene to do FTTZ JOHN PORTER the
justice which has been so long denied
him. They recognize the monstrOus
and unprecedented anomaly which his
case presents. Here is a gallant soldier
and loyal citizen who for nearly twenty
years has been enduring the heaviest
punishment which can be inflicted upon
an army officer, on account of an Of
Tense of which an authoritative and inn
partial tribunal has declared that he was
innocent; who for sixteen years has
vainly asked for rehearing, and who,
after the lOng-delayed rehearing had re-
suited in his complete exoneration, has
waited for three years more, and is
waiting still, for the reparation which
should have Immediately followed his
aequittal. 1t is difficult to see how
Congress can need any urging to do the
right thing in a case like this.

continue il too, without any demand
from the legitimate necessities Of the
Government. 1t can only be necessary
in the sense that jobbery is necessary.
To perpetuate the system Of jobbery
which Is now being carried on, a full
treasury is requisite, and the s150,0O0,-
900 surplus now being collected from the
people, is none too large to satisfy the
cormorants who fatten upon Republican
msjorities in Congress. To this end
only, has the order gone forth that
full treasury must be maintained, and
for this purpose only has Republican
caucus refused to abolish or curtail tax
alton.
The issue is here distinctly defined.
The Republicans have asserted the doc
trine of spoils and the maintenance OF
unnecessary taxation. The Democrats
demand reform and lighter burdens for
the people. On an issue of this kind 1t
is difficult TO believe that there can be
but one result.

1T is very evident that the people be-
tween Wheeling and Parkersburg do
not want a railroad. 1t has been an
nOunced from time to time for the past
year that parties were ready with the
cash to build the road as soon as the
right of way is secured, and yet COM
meneement has not been made because
the right of way has not been obtained.
So We suppose if ever road is made, il
must be ON this side of the Ohio river"
ohio TdUey NelCS.
1t may look that way to an OBJ
server on the other side of the river; but
over here closer view inspires the be-
lief that one of the most certain, as well
as one of the most desirable acquisitions
Wheeling is to have in the near future
is a river line of railroad to Parkersburg
and Point Pleasant.

\ WRITER who protests against the
indiscriminate slaughter of dogs in the
interest of sheep, says there are four
simple ways in which sheep may he
protected: the first, by shepherd dogs;
second, by putting bells on several sheep
Ofeach flock; third, by allowing goats
to run with the flock; and fourth, by
barbed wire fences. He proposes that
shepherd dogs should be exempt from
tax, and that some Of the protective
methods suggested above be fairly tried
before the dogs are exterminated.
MAKE laws against the sheep-killer as
severe as you please" he says, "but
don't destroy the lives of a hundred or
thousand innocent, to punish one
guilty"

Frank James surrendered himself
to Gov. Crittenden last Thursday, up
on guaranty that his case should be
tried before the courts. He was sent
next day to Independence. where an
indictment is pending against him, and
he is now in Jail awaiting the session
of the Circuit Court. This removes the
last vestige Of train-robbers that so
long infested this and other Western
States. Gov. Crittenden and other
authorities are entitled to the thanks
and will receive the congratulations Of
all law-abiding citizens for their MAIN
tenance of the dignity of the law and
the destruction of the celebrated rob
Der band. But the ost-Dispdtch and
