The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1894-03-02
" Tone Inhuence.N

The other morning as l lay in bed, sweet
sleep to my eyes denied,
The clock in an adjoining room struck four,
1t was Just about morning tide.
The tones OF this clock when 1t tells the hour,
the hour that is past and gone,
Are deep and low, like funeral bell-deep,
low, slow and forlorn.
There is music there, 1t is rich and full, a
deep, rich mellow tone;
But these heavy, solemn, funereal tones
sound to me somehow like a groan.
Well, the instant the stroke of four was told,
still throbbing, as it were, in the air,
The clock in steeple near by took it up, and
in tones defiant and clear
Loud clarion notes, quick, bold and strong,
Babe good-0y to the hours that had staid too
long,
And hailed with rejoicing the coming hours
That buried the night and made daylight
ours.
The instant the church clock ceased its
noise, so loud and sharp and bold,
BY another clock away down the street, the
self same story was told
In silVery tones like the light of a star,
That comes to US softened by coming so far
Like woman S voice, which, when soft and
low
Is sweet, whether telling of veal or woe).
We were told by the clock away down the
In tones that we're gentle, soft and sweet
That the hour was four, though said over
again
Now for the third time, it gave me no pain,
For the change from the mournful tones Of the
From the harsh, overbearing tones just done,
To the gentle tones Of the last to speak,
Made it strangely welcome, as all things
meek
Are welcome ever -andtt goes to show
What tone, Of the voice, If you will, may do.

BANDS Bill Passed.

The passage of the Bland seigniorage
bill by the House is a little victory for
the silverites. The majority in favor of
the bill was %. The effort made to de-
feat it was a long and strong one, but the
tactics adopted by the opposition are not
defeusible vote was STAYED of for
couple Of weeks by breaking the quorum.
II the vote had been taken when Mr..
Bland first proposed to take it about the
same result would have been reached.
The wisdom of increasing the volume of
the silver circulation at this time is ques-
tionable The price of silver has been
steadily falling for long time, and the in
trinsic value of a silver dollar at this time
is considerably less than 5Ocents. The Sec
rotary of the Treasury stated recently
that the banks were showing a DISPOSE
tion to refuse silver certificates, and it
was for that reason he obtained the opin-
ion Of the Attorney General as TO the law
fitness of those certificates as money
The opinion, as is well known, is not very
favorable to them.
The Bland bill, if it should become a
law, would add about 500, 0O0, 900 to the sill
yer currency. tits probable that that addi-
tional amount of silver money could be
carried in the total volumeof the currency
without causing trouble. If the treasury
should begin to lose gold again, however,
a scare might be caused that would re-
suit in a discrimination against both
silver coin and silver certificates.
The chances are the seigniorage bill
l.,
there not been sort of implied promise
at the extra session of congress that
something would be done for silver if the
bill repeating the purchasing clause of
the Sherman silver law were passed. At
that time the question of coming the
seigniorage was discussed, and the i'm
preston was made on the minds of the
silyerites that it would be coined.
As matter of fact, the seigniorage is
a very shadowy sort of a thing, because
the silver bullion in the treasury could
not be sold for anywhere near the amount
OF money the government paid for it.
According to the bill, the certificates
against the seigniorage are to be issued
before any silver is coined, if the treasury
should be in need of them, and in that
case there would be absolutely nothing
behind them. The treasury notes that
were paid out for the silver, and which
are outstanding, are greater in amount
than the value of the silver.
1t is a question whether or not the
Senate will pass the bill. The chances
are it will, though it may amend it
in some particulars. 1t has been pre-
dicted that the President would veto it
if it should reach him. He would do so
doubtless if he had reason to think it
would have disturbing effect upon the
currency, but if he thought otherwise he
would sign it. The bill might be good
thing if it would put an end to the agi-
tation for the free coinage of silver, ex-
cept for free coinage to be brought about
by international agreement.

George Francis Train once declared fish to

ancestors were in regarding one as good

Sir Gerald Portal. who has just died. was
the most celebrated diplomat in dealing with
Oriental and savage races that England has
had in recent years In 1857 he was captured
by the AbyssinIans. who carried him before
their king. He captiVated the king to such an
extent that he dismissed him loaded with
honors and gifts.

While Gen. Lew Wallace was in New York
recently he was the cynosure OF all neighbor-
ing eyes at the Gilsey house, but we are in
formed by the Kansas City Star that when
the general appeared at an exclusive Ashe

there paid little attention to him, and were
not wholly certain whether Ben Hur'' was a

The hrst woman to be ordained as a

Massachusetts, is Mrs. Amelia A Frost, who
was received into holy orders at Littleton
last Wednesday. Up to within a compare
lively recent time, says the New York World.
Paul 5 injunction against the prominence OF
women in the church was rarely disobeyed
but the success in the pulpit Of late years OF
Miss kalloCh in Chicago, Mrs. Patterson in
Boston and Mrs. Stetson in New York has
shown that woman is peculiarly fitted to be a
religious teacher.
Robson, the actor, once a partner of Crane
used to keep scrap boolx in which he pasted
every newspaper item which told of the mis-
doings OF clergymen. He had hundreds OF
scandals, big and little, and scores of defalca-
lions as the result OF years OF careful reading.
When the pulpit attacked the stage it was his
solace to fly TO his scrap-book and read page
after page. until, permelted with the wrong
doing of few black sheep, he felt a soothing
consciousness that after all there were
wicked people other than actors. And yet he
liked clergymen and was not scofer.

the Illinois man wanted to defend his con,

to me-" said Mr.. Cannon.
Certainly. said Mr.. Cox.
For how long, inquired the speaker.
AS long as the gentleman from illinois will
keep his hands in his pockets" said Mr.. Cox
laughingly.
Mr.. Cannon accepted the terms and pro
ceeded with his remarks. He uttered Just
one sentence and half. and then his hands,
which had been snugly stuck into his pockets.
came out and were Tying through the air like
a couple OF windmllls.
Time up. said Mr.. Cox. who knew his
man, and then Mr. Cannon sat down.
Anybody who has seen Mr.. Cannon gesticu-
late will appreciate the spirit with Which he

the use of his arms.
