BEBNABD. - WILMINGTON, IT. C. Satubday Lvening,- Dec 27, 1884. EVENING EDITION. 1SR. WETTHBOP ARB THE HON- 7' irau&NT. . . , - r , The country at large will be pleased at tke announcement that Hon. IlObert Q. Winthrop, although seventy-six years old, is very much improved, and will, probably recover from- his recent severe attack of - pneumonia. There . is not a better specimen of a cultivated gentleman, -- and a pure and incorruptible states man to be found in the annals of New r England. .In 1847-'49 he was Speak er of "the" House the last Whig .Speaker that ever presided. In 1850 he succeeded Mr. Webster as United States Senator. There is neta more jaccomplished rhetorician among the public men of the' country than this admirable New Englander. No one can fail to admire his elevated cha racter, his exalted abilities, his pure and(imposing eloquence, his dignity, his urbanity,' his bigh sense of jus tice, of honor and of -right, and his broad and generous statesmanship. It -is 'just' thirty-seven years Yago since he delivered the oration at the laying of the corner-stone . of the Washington " monument. ' It was a chaste, appropriate and eloquent ef fort, lit would be a happy circum stance if he couldbe able to deliver a second oration at its .completion. If his recovery becomes assured the oom- mittee ought to defer the celebration ; for a few weeks that the noble Win throp. should be the . speaker. It is said that he had completed his ora tion before he fell into a great sick ness that a fewdays ago was feared to be mortals l;3iimjnake the second oration and it will be without a parallel , in history as to the wide interval between laying the stone and the completing of the apex; and ave in the case of Daniel Webster, who made. the two orations, At Bun ker? HiU,-both at the laying of the corner stone and at -the celebration held upon the completion of -the - monument, there is no other instance of two orations - being"f made by the same man upon an occasion like that. ; AN 1LLU8TRI0TJS EXAMPLE OP IN- BlJfiTBX AN1 LONGEVITY. Althouglx the historian Ranke is now somewhere m the nineties,, be has-fust is sued the annual volume of his- 'Weltge schichte, covering the rise- and fall of tiie Baraceng, . Letters from Berlin report him - well and enthusiastic, and as hard at work as ever.'! London Special to the New York Times.' 'f yr '. r- ; Leopold Ranke was born in 1795; He is now, .therefore,;: past Jiis ,89th - year. He is a marvel -of, industry and ability. He is even now one of the greatest-historians of the modern worldrpiHis ' History . of England" is a rMt)I specimen of research,' men talt grasj? and -criticaLincisivenessJ His:Hi8tory of the Popes" received the high'praiseof the splendid Ma- caulay more than : forty years ago. After, completing a great historical undertaking Ranke at eighty-six be gan a new work . of extraordinary compass and one requiring the high est ; intellectual powers, 1 f was no less a work than to undertake to write the history of the world or an "TTniversal History." A year since he published the. first volume, which has been republished in - the United States. It has met the full indorse ment of the best appointed critics. It is philosophical, luminqus, acute and original. He is about the only man liv ing,unless we are to except Lecky, and possibly Freeman, who has the men tal power to produce - a work on so grandma scale, covering! so wide a field and extending through the tens of centuries. A - second volume of Ranke's great work has just appeared in Germany. In a few months it will be translated and - will be pub lished in this countryl . , ; ' , But what a tremendous' undertak ing for any man! Think of a man of eighty-nine at work on a great historical composition that would have taxed Gibbon's highest poweis when at his best But study and mental work never, killed' any man yet. It is worry, a .violation of natural laws, and the -carktsg cares of earth that kill men. ' . , INDEPENDENT BEFUBUCAN8. ' The Independent; Republicans of New York City have determined to keep up their organization, but they do ;. not intend to "adopt measures for extending the organization in a form that implies a v third party," as we learn from, the J Times. Unless they were very insincere when they voted for Cleveland' they cannot re turn to the party that they know to be dominated by Corrupt men and vicious methods. They are forced if honest and fair to give the man they supported for President a fair show ing. Then they are not wanted by their former allies. The Blaineites are - doing what they can through their 'subsidized press and by the ac tion of associations and clubs to keep out "mugwumps," and the Indepen dents aire stigmatized with all man ner of reproaches. So if they are consistent and ;. sincere in their often expressed desire for Reform they cannot return at once to their old party affiliation. President Cleve land was their choice in preference to Blaine, and they should stand by his Administration if it is such an one as they have good reason to believe it will be. In the Nineteenth , Century the Ipoet Swinburne has a highly appre ciative and, an the main, just criti cism upon 'the works of 'the late Charles Reade, who was a writer, of unequal but very superior powers. He regards rrhe Cloister and the Hearth" as exceedingly fine. ,VHe thinks it would be difficult to find "a story better conceived or better com posed, better constructed or better related.". He says it unquestionably belongs to the "very greatest master-' pieces - of narrative." But he re gards "Griffith Gaunt" as his great est achievement. He says of it that it Us "an all but absolute and con summate work of art" and much ahead of his other productions. He has also mnch praise of "Loveme little, Love melong." Of his great sketch "Autobiography ; of a Thief? he says it "is one of hia finest' and most thoughtful pieces of work." He praises his early books -"Peg Wof fington" and "Christie Johnstone." 1 A considerable opposition ; among the Southern'.' members to the Rea gan inter-commerce bill is developing It will hardly pass. The South needs development, and legislation that tends to cripple in any way the build t ing of railroads will not be received with general favor if understood. The Washington ; correspondent' of the Augusta Chronicle referring to the opposition to the Reagan bill, says: ("The bill is not a proper one and ought not tO DaSS. It in tnn tvoanin :. rrTk. est -railroad reform comes from, rivalry and competition. These corporations are not generally prosperous at this time, and Mtra wwnnffl more iavoraoie. it is an uncanny sight to Bee Southern Congress men demagogically making war on systems which have done so much to develop their section industrially and would do a - great dealinore for the common weal, if not in timidated and assailed.''., v , , The press is urging -with force the absolute- necessity of increasing court facilities. We do not tninW the peK pie will be satisfied if the Legisla ture does not make some provision for increasing the number of Judges? There must be either more Superior Court circuits br the creation of a new Court to try a special class' of cases. - The Raleigh Chronicle says: cesaitv for tftVmiT mnno- rL i jnii v . s ,aouic i. jBave more Judges .but no action was taken.

The San , Domingo Treaty , will doubtless share the fate of the Treaty. with Spain. The Nicaraguan Treaty may pass, as it rests upon other princi pies. :j;-The total commerca-of the United States with San Pomingo is $2,801,577. This includes " exports and imports.

The increase of the membership in the Methodist Church, Sonth, is Very large; since' 1865. When the. war ended it. numbered 420,105 members.

A great party newspaper, or organ, if, you insist upon the term, should be; governed, by Urer rules of conduct as' guide a great party lead er. It should believe ; implicitly in the principles it professes, and sup port the best attainable means for their triumph and successful applica tion. At the same time, in opposition it" need never be factious;: It should labor for the highest development of the best element and principles of its own party," ever endeavoring to suppress deteriorating influences. ( A great., party newspaper Vshbuld be loyal to its own, fair to the enemy, brave in convictions, strenuous in op position, and, abov all, true in eve rything. It must never waver in fi delity to principles; but, as with men, so with newspapers, the de mands of party must never drown the voice of patriotism or of common honesty. Battimore'Day, r 0 , ! - There are no doubt ai good many Republicans in Congress who agree with the Republican Secretarv of the Treasury upon the necessity of making a redactinn of duties ntfw, instead of waiting a year longer. If this legislation is delayed for another year the financial evils arising from an enormous Treasury surplus will be aggravated and the depression that pervades business more, difficult to counteract.
