ION tho whole" concludes our contetn-

Christian and eninently appropriated

the subject of discourse was In life
irreiglous, and especially IL notoriously
Immoral, tho more faithful aud truthful
the funeral sermon the moro cruel and
heathenlsh. Therefore, the preacher must
discriminate, He must cottine his fun
ernl sermons to those subjects who IN
life were good. For this reason, if for
no other, It Seems to us that the funeral
sermon should be retired.
But be the record of the deceased sud-
ject ever so good, and be tho sermon
ever so euloglstic, how can sensitive sur

with the dead body OF her husband.
We do not say, nor did we mean to say

The Virginia Platform.

Some of the Democratic newspapers OF
Virginia are disparagngs and belittling
the platform adopted by the State Demo-
cratic Convention. We cannot see what
is to be gained by such criticisms. The
Platform Committee was composed of
true and representative Democrats, and
they concluded, and, wisely concluded,
that 1t was not incumbent upon the con-
vention or appropriate for the Virginia
Democracy to outline in detail a. national
platform, seeing that that work is to be
done by the National Convention, which
is soon to assemble in ST. Louis The
Virginia Democracy committed itself to
the cardinal principles, Of Demo cracy.
leaving the details to be worked out and
specific issues to be promulgated by the
National Convention. This was in the
interest OF party harmony and party har-
mony is in the interest Of Democratic
success. s95 Z
For our part. we think that 1t will be
also in tho interest of party harmony
and Democratic success for the National
Convention to promulgate brief and
concise platform, declarative of the fun
damental principles Of Democracy, and
arraigning and attacking the, Republican
party its radical and revolutionary
departures therefrom. Senator Martin
spoke words of wisdom when he said
that it was not necessary to put into the
platform everything that Is true; that it
is for the party to declare IT'S principles
in a general way, and specifically to deal
with the living issues Of the campaign.
There would be no sense in making a
platform reading like long-winded
stump speech. raking up dead issues and
dragging in all sorts of out-of-date ques-
tons upon which Democrats were for
