Che Great Wall If China.

II would seem from the account of

were masters of what is even now one
of the greatest wonders in existence.

ured by Mr.. Unthank, an American
engineer on a survey for a Chinese
railway. His measurement gave the
height eighteen feet. Every few hun

10 avoid mountains or chasms 10 save
labor or expense. For 900 miles the

structure solid masonry. In some

pemocracH and Silver in Mi.n..ippi


The resignation Of General Walihall'
Of Mississippi. has made a yacancy in
the States representation in the Unit
| cd States Senate, which a number oil
| distinguished sous are anxious TO nil
1t appears, however, that nc candid-
ale eau cherish any hopes OF pericr-
ment unless he shall be able to pro
| nounce the shF6bole,h which has been
propoundcd by the Mississippi Legis'
lature.
The present Grand Assembly of
Mississippi. now 10 session, is an out
and .out free silver body. Although
the silver Issue which was the subject
OF a most bitter controversy in Con-
gress last Summer is no longer before
the nation, the Mississippi Legislature
has taken it up aud made il TIE key
note of its general political policy, AT
least it is so as regards candidacy to
fill the vacaucy from Mississippi in
the United States Senate. In evidence
of this, it is given out that all candid
atcs for the place were required to ap-
pear before a caucus OF the Mississippi
General Assembly and answer ques-
lions as follows:
Candidates who could not answer
these questions in favor OF silver were
given notice that they need not apply.
Among them was Governor Stone, who
is aud has been q steadfast supporter
of a sound money policy. lie opposed
free silver, coinage, although he re.
ceived the overwhelming popular sup.
port of his State. but his views do not
suit the General Assembly. With that
body il appears that Democracy means
free silver, and unless he will worship
at the silver shrine, all his life long
services for the Democratic party aud
his patriotism aud great ability 90 for
nothing.
This is a standard OF Democracy
which was invented by the personally
interested Senators aud Representa-.
tive ola few Western silver mining
States, and lis Democratic orthodoxy is
moro than questionable. Neverthe.
less there is no objection to it as the
b,sis of an opinion or a belief, but a.
a doctrine of Democracy it is arrant
heresy. 1t so happens that Senators
George and Walthall are %silverites,
but that does not confirm or improve
their Democracy. 1t is really u mere
temporizing theory which those dis
tinguished gentlemen have chosen to
adopt and annex: but if their opiuion
sets the gauge for q party creed, then
plainly silver, and not Democracy, is
the issue in Mississippi, for nobody
will undertake to say that Governor
Stone ia not a good Democrat as any
oil those who stood au examination on
the silver catechism.
The Picayune has no desire to inter.
tere IN a matter that the General AS
eemblv of Mississippi is competent TO
settle for itself, but it regrets to see
the Democracy OF such n sterling
Democratic State Is Mississippi com
plicated with issues not gcrmanc to
the real principles Of the party. That
is all of il. N. O. Pic.
