Cheering Indications.

The Annapolis Republican. owned
and controlled by Mr.. George Cotton,
contained. in recent issue, an edito-
rial on the political situation, which
after frankly admitting the prospects
OF Democratic defeat in Maryland
next fall, entered a pathetic plea for
harmony, and called upon the moss
backs to retire voluntarily and give
the command of the Bourbon ranks

ester) hands. There are several reas-
ons why Mr.. Colton's appeal is not
likely to be needed. Every one who
has given the slightest attention to
Maryland politics will understand
how improbable it is that the men
who have bossed the machine for so
many years will voluntarily relin-
quishtheir holdupon the organization.
They cannot be persuaded that they
constitute the main element of disin-
tegration within the Democratic par
ty; and even if they were brought to
understand this, many of them-a
large majority of them indeed-woult
welcome defeat under their own lead
ership rather than success under the
guidance of their own party rivals.
This dog-in-the-manger characteristic
of the old Democratic manager" has
aided materially in bringing about
the loss of public confidence and sup
port over which their party press now
means so plaintively. The people
have seen how selfish and unpatriot-
ic the motives of the Bourbon leaders
are, just as they understand now that
their promises of better behavior are
wrung from them by their fears of
the popular commentator and will
hold good just as long as the neces-
sity for it continues, and no longer.
The people understand very we'll how
much faith to put in this death-bed
repentance of INSCRIPTIONS and time
serving Bourbon bosses.
Another important factor which
Mr.. Cotton failed to take into account
is, that the young men of Maryland
are as fully alive to theshortcomings
of the Democratic party as their ell
ders are, and are aligning themselves
with the Republican columns: This
has been marked feature of recent
Republican conventions-the num-
Der of young men of the better class
who have distinctly Unidentified them
selves with the organization. The
party is steadily expanding with the
new life and vigor thus impaired
while the old Democracy is disinte-
grating and falling to pieces from
factional fights for spoils, from dry
rot and general decrepitude,
Mr.. Cotton, after sounding the note
of alarm, asked for an expression OF
opinion by the State press, and these
have not been of a nature to cheer
his dropping spirits. The following
are fair samples of the whole, and

Senator Davis on the Tariff.

From the Wheeling Intelligehcer.
The speech of Senator Henry G.
Davis on the tariff, delivered in the
Senate January 26, has attracted at
tention, as it deserved to. 1t has been
praised, sharply criticized, and sneer-
ed at-sneered at because the Senator
began with Washington and Jeffer-
son to show that the idea of protec.
ton to American industries was in
the minds of the fathers of the Re-
public, and because he used some trite
illustrations to show that the cOun-
try's greatest prosperity had been
under a protective tariff.
1t is to be hoped that the Senator
will not be made uncomfortable by
these assaults. Whoever can bring
to their senses the Democratic schem-
ers who are insanely bent on wreck
ing the tariff and with it those great
industries which have @own up un-
der it, will perform great public
service; for while powerful party
continues to tilt at the tariff it will
always be in danger. Democrats pro-
fess to have great respect for prece-
dent and Democratic authority, to
take off their hats when they come
upon one of the old landmarks.
Now Senator DaYis has been giving
them Democratic precedent, author.
ity and landmarks to show that "a
tariff for revenue with incidental pro-
lection" has been the Democratic
policy. His effort was to show such
policy is not only better than free
trade for the country but better for
the party, and this he shows by
straightforward thrust that mus
have knocked some of his more pc.
little Democratic friends out'o breath.
He regretted that the little word,
"only" had not been left out of the
National Democratic party in 1880
"but for that word l believe Hancock
WOulu Dc L I0Slueul
Senator Davis supported Hancock
in spite of that word which commit
ted the Democratic party to policy
he did not approve. Being Demo.
crat in high position perhaps he could
not Eave been expected to cut loose.
But he is soon to pass out of public
life. He will no longer be under
bonds to keep the peace. The DEM
ocratic party is still "for revenue on
ly." By 1884 it will not have recov-
cred its reason. If allowed to Wat.
terson will make the plank still more
British. We put the case to Senator
Davis in this way: He is for "a
tariff for revenue with incidental pro-
tection." This is an advance of his
party, but not far enough. On this
basis, if we needed no revenue we
should have no tariff-nothing is in.
cidental to nothing. We may be
prepared for that in five hundred
years-it took England eight hum
dred-but Senator Davis will not be
here then.
Our proposition is that he cut loose
from the Democrat party, declare
in favor of "a tariff for protec
tion," and without reserve throw the
whole weight of his great influence
on the side of American labor and
American capital. If the Senate ac-
ceDt the proposition he will doubtless
find greater comfort in the Republi-
can party, to which we shall be glad
to welcome him."

The House of Delegates of West
Virginia, by the decisive vote of 40
to IA, has passed resolution proyid-

in that State. The Wheeling Regis

several members who spoke against
the resolution and then voted for it.

You can kick mans dog out of the

NIGHT

The pale and silent night
Has cast her mantle o er the burning Yves:
And stilled the tumult of the world of light
Deep into rest.
On dark and leadcn plumes,
The twilight drops athwart the closing sky,
And in the gathering wilderness Of gloom
Her shadows lie.
And from the misty sands
The zerhyTs aoating idly forth are driven
On the veil, where, dim and distant,
The hills of heavca
And, breaking from rcpose,
The stars down quivcrinS though the dusk,
lllumc the beacons Of the airy close
With light serene.
The golden lustrc dim,
The crescent moon is lowering on high.
Her pale light drifting slowly o'cr tho rim
OF the blue sky.
Beneath the bounding arch
watch the glowing cycles as they run,
All passing IN grand triumphal march,
TO meet the sun.
And so wait alone
Until the glory Of the night has ceased,
Aad the red eagle mounts his blazing throne
In the far East
ChicJgo Inter Ocean.

strange features illustrate what the morbid

and Mrs. Edgar Brewer. of East Hartford,
lost a beloved daughter who was then about
16 years of age. S, terrible was the faith
er's eriefthat he could not bear the thought
of hiding away tho remains Of his lovely
child in the cold earth, and therefore he
procured the services of Hartford under
taker, who prepared the body so that il
would keep, and it was then placed in
state in the parlor of Mr. Brewers residence.
Every few days the undertaken calls at the

all is right for their preservation before he

cndcaring expressions that can come from a

creep into the room through the closed
shutters, the grief stricken father leaves the
room to seek his bed and rcposc,
These nightly vigils have been kept up
increasingly since the death ofthe daughter.
Every attempt made by ueighbors and

But, finally, persuasion prevailed and he
has consented to inter the body, but will
