TO GOD AND IRELAND TRUE.

By Ellen o'Leary.
i sit beside my darlng's grave,
Who in the prison died,
And tho my tears fail thick and fast
/ think OF him with pride:
Ay, softly fall my tears like dew,
For one TO God and Ireland true.
AZ love my God Ger ALL" he said,
"And then l love my land,
And next l love my Lily sweet
Who pledged me her white hand;
To each-to all-I'm ever true,
To God-to Ireland, and 10 YOU"
No tender nurse his hard bed smootheds
Or softly raised his head
He fell asleep and woke in heaven,
Ere i knew that he dead.
Yet why should i my darling ruet
He was TO God and Ireland true.
OH Ills glorious memory.
Pm prouder than a queen
To sit beside my hcro's grave,
And think on what has been:
And oh, my darling, / am true
To God-to Ireland-and to you.

THE TrMEs-RIcHMoND VA. TUESDAY JULY 81 1891

This is an accomplishment which il not very
generally valued.
It's not that he is IN intimate associate OF
prominent statesmen in the ranks OF the Re-
publican party, for this is distinction that
can be easily won by liberal contributions 10 the
Republican campaign fund. 1t is not that he
has posed very successfully as philanthopist
in his proclamation of the doctrine of the Cos
pei of wealth and in his munifcent gifts for
tho establishment OF public Libraries. This 10
reputation which can be certainly secured
by an equal display of public spirit and pri-
vate generosity.
The superiority of Mr.. Carnegie's position
lies in this, that he is still British subject.
and therefore eligible to all those honors
under the English Government and in Eng
lish society for which so many plutocrauc
Americans who have lost their sympathy with
American institutions sigh 80 ardently. FOR
some time Mr.. Carnegie has been actively en-
gagged in buying up large number OF scot
tish estates with q view 10 becoming great
territorial magnate who will be invested with
all the prestige that surrounds proprietorship
in the soil of the British Isles. He has already
blossomed out into Laird, title which i'm
parts much personal consideration in Scot
land. and his name is now being prominently
brought forward az candidate for Parlia-
ment from the borough in which his residence
is situated.
As he is a man Of undoubted talents. mus

if elected to Parliament, to take leading
part in that body for which his practical
training acquired in America. admirably fits
him. With his singular ability TO make him
self conspicuous his vast fortune, his liberal
ity and public spirit, it is far from being I'M
TO the peerage, consummation to which he
would certainly aspire and which he would
not be at all presumptuous in expecting.
Baron Cluny, the name of his Scottish cas-
tie. would sound decidedly more distinguished
than plain Mr. Carnegie. or if the principle
which Napoleon acted upon in the ducal
designations of his marshas be adopted, Mr..
Carnegie would be known as the Earl OF
Duke of Pittsburg, that being the scene of
his greatest achievements. Such a desgna-
ton might give some offense in the United
States but this Mr.. Carnegie might well af-
ford to ignore when he has removed perma-
nently to the other sidel of the water. II
might serve 10 keep him in the mind of the
American people, and would undoubtedly
add to the distinction of his reception in this
country when he degned to revisit the scenes
where he first performed the duties of tele-
graph operator and afterwards accumulated
such enormous wealth as q manufacturer of
iron and steel

DEMOCRACY IN ENGLAND.

There have been recently three very strik-
ing indications Of the growth of democratic
sentiment in England, the significance Of
which it is impossible to ignore.
First, the establishment of a national public
school system under the direct supervision Of
the State and supported by funds regularly
appropriated from the National Treasury.
The Inauguration of this system very natur-
alv was opposed by all the lower educational
institutions dependent upon private patron
age for their existence, but this opposition
had TO be withdrawn. The introduction Of
this system was in anticipation of the final
adoption Of manhood suffrage; that is, uni
yersal suffrage irrespective of any property
qualifications. an event which is now inevita-
BILE and which will do more to alter the char
acter of the English Government than any
influence that could possibly be brought into
operation. Manhood suffrage is democracy
pure and simple, i'll spite of throne and n
House of Lords.
The second indication is the proposition,
which has been seriously advanced by so con-
sentative a statesman as Lord Salisbury, that
suffrage shall be conferred upon women to
counterbalance the evil effect which is antici-
pated TO follow from the extension of male
suffrage. Lord Salisbury himself expressly
declares that this will be the object Of the in
novation which he has suggested, his idea be-
ing that as women are so much less radical
than men. their exercise of the suffrage will
be drag upon any schemes which universal
manhood suffrage would be likely TO inaugu-
rate.
The third indication is that the Conserva-
tive administration have now under advise
ment the plan of gerrymandering the voting
districts Of England in favor of the Conserva-
tive party before the next general election
takes place. The mere suggestion of such
gerrymander would DO bitterly opposed by
the best sentiment of the kingdom if demo-
cratic influences had not deeply permeated it
in every direction.
Had Disraeli. one of the most daring of
English public men, proposed such a scheme
a generation AGO it would have been set down
to the sensational recklessness which was sup
posed to be in keeping with the bent of his
character. but not even he, bold as he was.
would have been fearless enough TO carry out
such proposition.
The introduction of the caucus into the
local government of Birmingham many years
ago did much to discredit Mr.. Chamberlain
in the public opinion of England, but the
democratic spirit illustrated in the caucus is
as nothing when compared with the demo-
cratic spirit illustrated in the gerrymander.
The adoption of the gerrymander will be a
tremendous step forward towards the Ameri-
canization of English politics. The Ameri-
canization of English politics will be the con.
summation of English democracy.

FAMILY HOTELS.

Now that Richmond is expanding 80 rap
idly into q large city, the need of family hotels
on considerable scale is becoming more and
more urgent. Everything that We have APP
preaching the character of such establish
Inents has been decidedly successful, but
there is still a class in the community, and it
is a class which is fast increasing, which is not
fully accommodated by the public houses of
the kind which we have.
Family hotels Of the character which is SO
common in Washington and Baltimore, not 10
mention cities further north, would, we are
confident, return a handsome income on the
outlay which they would entail in the con-
struction. We have already number of large
flats. and their popularity shows that they
have met an existing demand. q, These fats,
however, do not meet the special demand to
which we refer, nor do the better class Of our
boarding houses. nor do our hotels.
What is wanted is the family hotel with
ample room fitted up in comfortable style
with suites Of apartments or single apart
ments to accommodate families orindiyiduals,
with meals furnished in q common hall and
with the service of hotel. There are several
private boarding houses in the city which
might well become family hotels on a large
scale
If large, handsome and attractive build
ings were erected with every modern appl-
ance and Improvement, and with full security
for privacy for the family and the individual,
there is no reason why they should
not be profitable investments. Not
only would they draw patronage
from many persons who occupy rooms in the
homes of private families, notonly wouldthey
lead many families who occupy their own
homes to give up housekeeping, but they
would obtain a very important support from
families that would be induced 10 pass a
month and a season in our city if there were
here family hotels of this kind.
Such hotels would not cost in their erection
as much as the ordinary hotel and, therefore,
smaller risk would be incurred in their cree
ton. Let some of our capitalists take this sug-
gestion into consideration.

ACCORDING to the advance abstract of the
census report on gold and silver production
in the United States in 1889. the total value Of
the works and mines was 1886, S7s, III; and the
total value of the precious metals produced
was 500 82 SOC.
Commenting on this an exchange remarks
that while the statistics of the 1880 census in
this field of industry were 80 imperfect as to
afford no data for intelligent comparison be-
tween thy two returns, it Will be seen from
the above figures that the industry is yielding
very substantial returns in the aggregate on
the capital invested, though it may be true
that the mad era of bonanza hitting has be-
come a thing of the past.

P. M. G. WANAMAKER described Christ's
first miracle Of turning water into wine at
Cana before his Sunday school class last Sun
day, and deduced therefrom the lesson that
the Saviour in this as in every other act of
His life, always used His great power for the
benefit of others and not for Himself.
This is perfectly true, and no intelligent
man can deny it. But why does not Wana-
maker follow an example for which he pro-
fesses so much admiration For instance. he
never uses his great power of raising money
(from the Keystone bank or in any other way
for the advantage of others unless he can see
something in it for himself. He would not
even give his s40O,O 900 to the Harrison corrup-
tion fund until he had been promised the
Postmaster Generalship.

THE exercises at Lexington to-day at the un-
yelling of the statue of General Stonewall
Jackson will be very imposing, and the occa-
sion will be second only to that memorable
demonstration in this city at the unwilling of
the Lee monument. Nothing so strikingly
proves the belief of the Southern peo-
ple in the righteousness of the cause
for which they fought than the love and rev.
erence they show for the memories of their
dead heroes-a reverence that will be trans
mitted from sire TO son throughout all genera
tons. Father Ryan never uttered sounder
truth than when he said that the fame of the
Conquered Banner would go sounding down
the ages"

A cable message was received yesterday by
Messrs. Allen & Ginter announcing the death
of Mr.. Edward J. Kemplen. who had long
been in their employ, and was well known in
this city. where he had many friends. Mr..
Kemplen had. been in bad health for some
eighteen months past.
Early last summer. by the advice of his
physicians. he went abroad and spent several
months at Carlsbad in the hope Of recovering
his health, which was somewhat improved.
In November he returned 10 Richmond, and
remained here until the latter part Of June.
On July list he sailed from New York for his
home, and died yesterday at his fathers resi-
dence, No. 81 Westcroft Square, Hammer
smith, London.

AS far as can be gathered from European
gossip respecting the understanding between
Germany and Great Britain an Asiatc as well
as European equilibrium is to be maintained.
1t is stated that Lord Salisbury, though not
bound to armed Intervention in case of war
in Europe. is to have the support of Germany
in resisting French efforts to dis
lodge England from Egypt and Rus
sian entertainments IN India. AS Sails
bury has no authority to make a
binding engagement it is extremely improba-
BILE that Germany has entered into bargain
of this nature, though it is not improbable
that Great Britain and Germany would be
sympathetic if Russia OF France, or BOTH
should attempt to extend their power in any
quarter of the globe.
