A Dangerous Subject.

We would say TO the Gordonsyille Ga
sette that if in its article touching our
concern for Mr.. RANDALL its premises
were sound its conclusion would be cor
rect. But We do not agree with it as to
the fact upon which its article is based
We do not by any means admit that "a
revision or reduction OF the tariff" is
"the fundamental principle that divides
the two parties. " On the contrary we
hold that the rdisoH d'5tre Of
the Democratic party-the one
reason that more than all others
;ustifes its existence-is the fact
that il stands for the rights Of the States,
and for the right Of the southern people
TO manage their own affairs without the
intervention Of the strong arm Of Fede-
nj power. Compared with this life and
death question the question whether Gus
toms-duties should average IS or 80 per
cent I'D Vaiorem seems to US to be
an insignificant one. II the guber-
material campaign were going on now,
would the Gasotte advise the Democrats
50 divide upon the tariff question, and
all those Of them who were Protection
1sts TO vote for the Republican candi-
date ? IL not, why not? If the tariff
opposition is 50 important as to be "the
Fundamental pnaciple that divides the
1--WE parties" would it not follow neces-
tsarily that al Protectionists ought to
vote for the Republican candidate?
We do not often touch the tariff ques-
tion, believing as we do that 10 make
fhat the controlling issue in Virginia
would be to provide for the defeat of
the Democratic party. We agree fully
with what our neighbor Of the State
the champion OF tho anti Protectionists'
theories recently on this subject.
We quote from that paper as follows;
ut would DO madness for those who
differ only on the tAT1f question, and
neither class Of whom are extremists on
that question, TO give victory by their
own divisions 10 an enemy with whom
they diser radically, not only on the
tariff but on every ether question. Our
friendly contest with the Protectionists
In the Democratic party in Virginia is

many concessions from a majority OF the

Ronnania.

There is hardly a day in the year that
Russia is not intriguing in one oranother
or oil OF the Balkan States, and the first
evidence that her "agents are meeting
with success generally crops out in mani
fcs;ations OF dissatisfaction among the
lower classes. IL is, therefore, more than
probable that when the bottom OF the
riots in Roumania is reached lot of
Russian emissaries will have been I'M
covered. The King of RoumaDia is a
Hohenzollorn, and recently ayowed
openly his sympathy with the position
Of AustTo- Hungary touching tho Bui-
earian question. 1t is easy to see what
would be his course in case OF war grow
ing out OF that question, particularly as
Germany would necessarily be involved,
and considering shat he could put about
$50. 000 men into the field, it is natural
that the Car should strive by his usual
methods to mend his fences Ill the little
kingdom.
