LItrrature and Longevity.


John Greeuleaf Whittier quietly cele-
brating his So birthday at his country
home near Boston is picturesque re-
minder that there is something in Amer
lean life besides the fever and hustle of
material accumulation. Poetry us life
work seems to he allied with longevity.
The greatest American poets have uni-
formly rounded out more than the al.
lotted span of human life. OF those
that are dead in the flesh Bryant aud
Longfellow are conspicuous examples
of singers who continued to sing in the
evening of matured lives as we'll as la
the flush Of vigorous youth. or the
living, what galaxy - Whittier.
Holmes, Walt Whitman, not to speak
of the comparative youngster, James
Russell Lowell Lingering among a gem
Grafton that was unborn when they were
in the plentitude of their powers, these
singers Of hope, truth. and patriotism
are blessed in their comparative retire
meDt by the henedictions and affections
of a grateful people. Long may they
live-the old poetsl England idolizes
Tennyson at four score and beyond"
even as America delights TO honor the
good Quaker poet who has just cele-
brated his S3d birthday. The great age
of the worlds greatest thinkers proves
how conducive to longevity is q well
regulated, calm, and intellectual life.

A HANDSOME MAJORITY.

50 far as The laity has power, it is de-
eided that women should be admitted as
delegates TO the General Conference of the
Methodist Church The total vote is about
100000, OF which three fiftns favor the
proposition. The ministry have yet 10 pass
upon The subject. but as women constitute a
majority of members of the church the min
listers are not likely to oppose them. The
next General Conference will determine If
the proposed Innovation shall prevail. The
significance of this vote is that women are

HILL ELECTED SENATOR.

From political point of view the election
of David i. Hill to the United States Senate
is the most important event that has re-
Gently occurred 1t is nearly equivalent to
a withdrawal of Mr.. Hill from the Presi-
dental campaign of 1892. While there may
be a sequence of events which viii bring
Mr.. Hill back into the contest he certainly
would not have accepted the Sena:orship if
he had contemplated course that, if sue
cesSful, would compel him 10 resign within
less than two years. The Senate is so nearly
tied that neither party would give away the
greater part of a term. Among Republicans
Mr.. Hin is regarded as a more formidable
opponent than Mr.. Cleveland. The latter
has taken position on the tariff and silver
questions that will give the Republicans the
full benefit of whatever popular leaning
there may he toward protection and the
double standard. Mr.. Hill views on the
silver question are unknown, but on the
tariff he is understood to favor incidental
prOtection-tnat is, a tariff for revenue, but
so adjusted as to afford all possible protec-
ton to American industries. On such a
platform the tariff issue would be blunted,
but with Cleveland as the Democratic can
dldate 1t Will be snarpened.
