Lines written ON the Death OF James
FOrwOOd.

Pass on, dear Father, through the gathering haze
That conceals thy form from our earthly gaze;
Beyond the mist is Heavens pure air,
And many a loved one waits us there;
For half our band have gone before,
And half still wait on the earthly shore.
But an thou art missed in our loved home
sphere,
And our Ma means for thy presence here
For keen is the arrow that rends in twain
The sweetest links in affection chain;
And our souls grow faint and our tears will flow,
When we think of thy form in the grave so low
For not again, as in days gone by,
Shall we meet the glance of thy gentle eye,
And not again shall thy loving voice
Our lonely home on Garth rejoice;
Yet we feel, we know, In thy home above
We are not forgot by fathers love-
And, Father, oft may thy spirit eyes
Look softly down from the upper skies;
And the holy smiles which the angels wear
Light up our earthly path of care:
And when our hearts are bowed with grief,
Let thy loved presence bring relief.
We know that " hen few short years
Have passed away, with their smiles and tears,
We, too, shall walt on the silent shore
To be rowed by him of the mufiied oar;
And oh, may we all by Fathers love,
Be reunited there above. &c,
Canton, Ohio, April 1st, 1884.

RAILROAD FIREs.-Much complaint con-
tinues to be made of the frequency of fires in
the woods and fields along the line of the Mary
land Central Railroad in Hartford county,
Much fencing and timber have been destroyed
and stubble fields burned over, during the recent
high winds. The fires generally originate
where the grades are heavy and require more
steam than usual, and from one of the freight
engines and the engine of The Delta train, 10th
of which scatter sparks profusely Mr.. James
M Cain, of Forest Hill, has been obliged to
have men constantly on the watch TO extin-
guish fires after nearly every train. Mr.. Cain
suggests that if worm fences were set on large
stones the fire would pass under without burn
ing them. The officers of the railroad company
should and doubtless will do erything in their
power to lessen the danger.

The Morrison Bill Defeated.

We hope this will be the end OF The farce.
The attempt TO pass this bill was only an
effort to frame ga platform for the Demo
| cratic party" As we have said before,
this Congress was not elected for that pnr-
pose; that will be the prerogatiye OF the
| National Democratic Convention at Chica-
20 in July next.
We further opposed it because we are
convinced that no such platform can be
successful in this presidential contest, and
our view is clearly sustained 10y the fact
that the representatives in Congress from
the pivotal States, Pennsylvania. New
York, Ohio, California, and New Jersey,
voted so strongly against the bill.
We were further opposed to 1T because
1t ignored the action OF the Lynchburg
Convention, which declared for the total
abolition OF the internal-revenue system.
ANY effort to lower the tariff tax by ig-
noring the internal revenue is a total repu-
diatiOn Of the Virginia doctrine on revenue
reform. Hurrah for the Ohio and Virginia
platform. The Democrats can only win in
this canvass on the principles incorporated
in the L%ynchburg platform Of last year.
Hurrah for George ID. Wise, "the lone
star Of the Virginia Democracy !"-FrOnt

10 the Editor Of the Dispatch:
An article in your issue OF the 18th in-
slant shows that you are not acquainted
with the situation Of the Democratic party
of the Third congressional district OF West
Virginia. AS your paper has a wide cir
culation in this district, it is but just to
say that while Mr.. Harris is an earnest adj
vOcate OF tariff reform, he is not antago-
niZIng the coal interests OF this district.
but publicly proclaims that he fav)rS the
retention OF the present duty on coal; and
his announced views upon the tariff seem
to be in harmony with the prevailing scnti-
ment of the party in this district. The
course of the aspirants for the nomination
will not produce any division in the party
which will affect its organization or sue
cess; and il you had known Mr.. Harms
you would never have indicated the posi-
bility of lis kicking over the party traces
and becoming an independent candidate.
He is a pure gentleman and an answering
Democrat.
The Third district will solidly support
the nominee. n SUBSCRIBER.

Tho Morrison Bill.

The Morrison bill for the horizontal re-
duction of tariff duties was yesterday con-
signed to the %flattest oblivion possible, al
though the vote on the enacting CLAUSE was
decidedly close.
There is, of course, a diversity Of opinion
among Democrats as to the effect when
this reverse will have upon tariff reform:
Mr.. Morrison claimed in his speech that IL
the bin were defeated there would be no
possibility to amend the tariff laws. But
Mr.. Morrison is in the attitude OF the ped
dler. who, falling to sell his wares, rhetori-
cally asseverates that no other goods can
be purchased.
Mr.. Morrison is an able man, and has
many of the elements Of craftsmanship in
him. But we believe that the country has
not yet gone to the dogs. and that tariff
reform will be effected when the time is
ripe Tor it.-PeterSbury Nail.
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1884-05-11
The Called.

The defeat of the Morrison bill etlectually
puts an end TO tariff discussion this session,
and conclusiyely proves the unwisdom OF
the course pursued when there was no
prospect Of enacting a law, even from a
Democratic free-trader's standpoint. The
attempt was manifestly TO foreStall the Ma
tional Democratic Convention by substitu-
ting for a platform a bill passed by a De-
nOcratic House.
The striking thing about the vote on
striking out the cnacting clause is that the
entire forty-one Democratic votes, with
perhaps one exception, for defeating The
bill, are from the disputed States. In
States where there Is no contest Democrats
voted against striking out the enacting
clause; but in all the States where Demo-
cratic congressman feel that they have a
great struggle. they voted for striking out
killing the bin or reserved the right TO
vote against the bill upon its final passage,
unless so amended rs 10 make il accepta-
BILE. Quite Il number OF Democrats voted
with the majority. intending to vote
against the hill unless it was properly
amended.-NdShUWe american.
