WASHINGTON, March 10, 1888

w ASHlNGION, MaTCu ~, 1908.
Never at so early a period in the
contest have the prospects of the
Democracy been so bright as they
appear for the campaign of 1888.
From all sections of the country the
advices are most cheering, and dis
tinguished conservative Senator, not
given to gush, said to your correspon-
dent to-day: UNLESS there is some
unforeseen issue raised, not even now
imagined, or death should remove
Grover Cleveland, we will have prac-
tica!ly a walkover, and in any event
the course of the party and admins
tration have been such that the peo-
pie are satisfied, and we can win with
any one we are likely, under any cir
Cumstances, to nominate.
The attempt made, while the Ma
tional Democratic Committee was in
session in this city, to make it appear
that President Cleveland was to have
strong opposition in his own State has
proved abortive, and | am in position
10 know that there will be practically
no oppo itlon to denomination, and
if Mr.. Cleveland should decline, the
party would not permit it.
The recent indecent assault Of Sem
ator Ingalls, upon President Cleveland,
instead of having the effect desired,
has caused a closing up Of the ranks,
and if there were any laggards before,
they are unanimous now, while the
Senator's ghoulish attack on the dis.
tinguished dead Generals Mcclellan
and Hancock, has caused revolution
Of feeling among the fighting surviv-
ors of the late war and their protests
are coming up in such numbers and
violence and even the National Re-
publican, in abiding to the speeches
OF Republican Senators, drops out of
notice the only Ingalls,.
Who shall be placed on the ticket
with, President Cleveland is now the
daily question. Mr.. Villas had many
supporters for while, but he appears
not to care particularly for the place.
Col. Morrison of Illinois has many
warm friends, and he would like the
nomination, while there are thousands
of Democrats who are anxious to shout
FOR kentucky's favorite son, Speaker
Carlisle. But there IS strong under
current of popular feeling in favor of
Gen. John c. Black, and it is generally
conceded that if the convention were
held to-day, his nomination would
be demanded. He is the growing
favorite, and all who give the matter
careful thought concede that he pos
sesses more elements of strength than
any other named. A short biograph-
zeal sketch of the probable candidate
must prove interesting to your read.
els.
Gen. J. C. Black, Commissioner Of
Pensions, is a descendant Of Penusyl-
vania ancestry of several generations.
His father. Rev. John Black, who was
a distinguished Presbyterian divias,
Saint Mary's beacon. [volume] (Leonard Town, Md.) 1867-1983, 1888-03-15

removed to Mississippi in 1884. where
the son was born January 9th, 1889.
Upon the death OF the father, few
years afterwards. the mother, with
her family, returned North. and set
tied at Danvills, Illinois.
Gen. Black has brilliant war record,
has been repeatedly honored by his
party and is one Of the most popular
men in illinois. He is considered
one Of the finest campaign speakers
in the country, and as such has al
ways been in great demand by his
party for years.
Two days after President Cleve-
lands inauguration General Black
was rendered unsolicited the appoint
ment CT Commissioner Of Pensions,
which be accepted, and Immediately
entered upon the discharge of his du-
ties.
His administration of this great
trust has been marked by sigma! a
bility and great Justice, and the vet
Grams have come to regard him as
their friend.
Personally, General Black is one of
the kindest and mast genial of men,
but infexible in the discharge Of
public duty. He is of marked per-
sonal appearance, and would make a
splendid presiding officer Ofthe United
States Senate, and would grace the
Office Of President, should he be called
upon to fill the duties of that station.

Departed this life, Wednesday March Z,
between the hours of and 4 D. III LEWIS
Il. PENN, beloved son of c. w. and G. =.
Penn, in the 22nd year of his age.
IL have fought good fight, have fin
ished my course, have kept the Faith
Henceforth, there is laid up for me a crown
of righteousness, which the Lord, the right
eous Judge, shall give me at that day, and
not me only, but unto all them also that
love his appearing"
His departure was 50 sudden, so unex-
pccted, that none kept vigil at his dying
couch. In moment, in the twinkling Of
an eye, the great Captain of our faith sum
moned him in order 10 give him charge of
some more important station along the
great line Of his work. He had been faith
full over a few things, the reward, Il will
make thee ruler over many things" is now
his.
| knew the deceased well. For nearly
two years have watched his course. I'm
awcd he stood in the presence of every diff
ficulty or obstacle in his course, and only
considered the means of their removal. At
the post of duty he found the poetry of life
Work was the mine out of which was to
come the means by which his every pur-
pose was To be accomplished. Trusting
ever in the promise of risen Saviour, he
went about his daily work, a living, breath
ing example OF the cheerful, trusting
Christian.
Teacher and pupil feel his loss alike
While our hearts 60 out out in sympathy
20 his bereaved parents, brother, and sis
tiers, we can but feel that he has lost moth
ing, rather he has gained everything Let
us all so live that when the summons
comes TO us we may be 80 well prepared to
lay aside this mortality for the glorious inn
mortality awaiting every true follower of
the lowly Nazarine. HIS FRIEND.

At Charlotte Hall, March :, LEWIS b.
PENN, son of Charles W. Penn, of Chap
tico district, St. Mary's Co, Nd, a veteran
soldier of the Mexican War
The deceased was employed several
years rs 4 Bible agent for some Of the
most prominent business houses of the
Union His business relations extended as
far rs Chicago, and embraced number of
the important towns on the Western and
Eastern Shores of Maryland.
Retiring from this work with view To
pursue u course of studies preparatory for
one Of the ministry, he entered Charlotte
Hall School in January 1887. The same
correct business habits adopted in his agcn-
CicS, were continued in the school room,
and by pronounced fidelity and zeal in
the discharge OF his duties, he won the es-
TEEN and commentator of his teachers,
and the love and admiration of his fellow
pupils.
Good abilities with great industry and
enthusiasm in his studies, added 10 an cX-
emplary life, made him leading mind
among his companions in every association
in which he accepted membership.
The most beautiful part Of his character,
however, was his Christian piety, which
was continually diffuSed throughout his
"h'AI me- IL dklCdiiu ~ lilC
church on the Sabbath, in the prayer meet
ing, at the Sunday School, doing work in
his Masters Vineyard, whenever an oppor-
tunity offered, or amidst his school aSsoci.
ateS urging them 10 better life, or whether
il was a short time before the sad evening
when the Destroyer wrapped him 50 sud
denly in Inconsistencies, he was heard
speaking u his companions those prophet
ic words: death has no terrorS for me-"
And now, since his manly spirit has left
us, how sweet is the assurance 20 his fami-
~ and friends that his short life, so full of
Christian love, Zeal and fidelity has been
exchanged for one of eternal felicity, re-
calling the comfortable sentiment Of the
poet Herbert:
Only sweet and virtuouS soul,
Like seasonal timber never gives:
But though the whole world turns 10 coal
Then chiefly lives"
