It is noticeable that those who op ? posed the Constitution when submit- ted feared some evils that may be .v.yet realized. m It is certain that al X: ready we have been alarmingly near f some of the dangers predicted. Here re the six consequences that were predicted as we find them summarized in-the Boston Post: Twu ction of the States as com .monwealtha; (2) the creation of a despot in 5 aME! Kth? V-. (3) the creation . ..-of an oligarchy in the senatorial body; (4) , usurpation of executive functions and divergence from the people on the part of the House of Representatives; (5) a tendency ' waVa3'5' tendency to PrOToke for ; : ;It is the daily prayer and talk and aim of Republican writers, speakers and politicians to destroy the States ' : and set up ajgreat Centralized Des potism. Under Grant we came dread ; fully nigh having a despot. In the Andrew Johnson time the Senate was almost an "oligarchy." Under Grant the Constitution was disregarded; rand State Legislatures were subject fc ed, to genuine Cromwellian .treat-: ment. The House governs the coun try to-day most thoroushlv. This is r done by ",a8urpation,? and by its sys tem; See Wilson' masterly exposi- tion. The larger States control to a great extent, just as they did under . the Confederation. Then it was Mas sachusetts. , Pennsylvania and Vir- ginia. ""-.."Now New York ' bosses, di- recta the financial system, names tha Presidency, fills a large 'share of the offices and controls generally. : Penn sylvania, Ohio and a few others' are potential in the system. , , ' C Some of, the fears of Hamilton, and those voting with him, have been realized more or less. -The .FW gives the evils to come, which they feared, as follows: ' "(1) the spirit and power of faction; (2) sudden impulses carryiog the people away and inducing hasty and violent legislative measures r -(3) instability in foreigtrpoliey; (4) ill-considered legislation, (5) the en croachment of . the Legislature- and espe cially of the House, as the holder of the purse upon the other departments; (6) a tendency on the part of the States to over bear the federal government, (7) the op pression of the minority by the majority; (8) State legislation threatenins: the validity of contracts and the security of property." The country has .greatly suffered from numbers 2 and 4 and 5. As to number 6, the tendency has been all the other way. Since Hamilton's Secretaryship and John Marshall's decisions, the tendency has been in the way of a strong Government. There has been evil growing oat of nnmbers 7 and 8. Mr. Bryce fails to see the accuracy of the opposition and thinks Hamilton and Madi son "fastened upon most of the real and' permanent weak nesses in popular government." If he had lived in the United States since 1861, he wonld have seen how seri ous have been the dangers threaten ing our institutions that were feared by those who opposed the Federal Constitution as first framed. .Mr. Bryce says that none foresaw some great evils that have come to pass wire-pulling, multiplication of elections, &c But these re minor, trifling evils compared with those that came near overthrowing free in stitutions in the days of Grantism. Even now there lurk great and im minent dangers in the principles of the party that put Grant in office, retained him in office, and then se lected such men as Hayes and Gar field and Blaine to succeed him. We have not space to consider De Toe queville's speculations of fifty years ago wise and penetrating as they were. A HEMARKABLE FASXILY. Writing without access to books on Saturday we made an error or two in our notice of Emily Bronte. She was twenty-five or twenty-six when she wrote her famous "Woth- ering Heights." Her sister Anne wrote two novels, "Ag'nes Grey," which we have not seen, and "The Tenant of Wildfell Hall," to which we referred. Rev. Patrick Bronte was an Irish man. He was rector of the parish of Haworth, in Yorkshire. His wife was English. He had five daughters and one son. Maria and Elizabeth, the eldest daughters, died early like the three gifted sisters. If they had iived they might have shown equal gifts with the others, and probably would, as the remaining four were intellectually quite superior. Char lotte was born in 1816, and died in 855. She had a brief wedded ife of about a year. She married the Rev. Mr. Nicholls. The celebrated novelist, Mrs. Gaskill, has written an admirable biography of her. Emily was born in 1818 and died in 1848. Anne was born in 1820 and died in 1849. Patrick Bran well, the gifted and unfortunate brother, died young also. The three sisters published a small volume of verse, which we read long ago. It attracted no attention. After the novels were published it was regarded with more interest. These sisters were all profoundly re ligious, yve are not sure that Emily did not write the best verse. Her ast poem was entitled "Looking Forward." It opens: "No COWftrd or.nl io mino. No trembler in the world's storm-troubled Bpiiere; I Bee Heaven's n-lnriea thin. . And Faith shines equal, arming me from Anne was a devout Christian as well as a woman of uncommon gifts. Her last poem, written near her death, was' on "Resignation." It closes with this holy aspiration: "Should Death be standing at the Gate Thus would I keep my vow But. Lord! whatever be my fate, ju let me serve Tnee now." We doubt if in any other famiiv. except perhaps the Rossetti'e, is there to be found so much true ge nius as in this Bronte family among .ne xorKsnire moors. Rev. Dr. Jeema, on his -first ivisit td Eneland. went to Haworth, to see the rectory in which the marvellous girls lived. Bunered, wrote, loved and died. - He told us twenty-five years ago that he -1 to a place not f ar from the horned where- thorn wan a rna - - own ibis was the place to which Char- ?" resorted after the death of her sisters and where she so often sat and thought her great thoughts. He of course restedTm the.sam seat.' He gavels a very interPKt.no. nt ,i. pathetiovaccount , of , hi vi.f tt ttetby Rev; Mr. Nicholls, who was -then occupy ing it.the father having died. Ho held much pleasant discourse - - with ; the husband of Charlotte who was kind enongh'to give him some particulars concerning his. noble and great wife. That home was a dreary place, the house desolate with - uninviting sur rouadingSjthe grayeywd hard byi the whole scenery ;aingnlaiiy-f chilling with the bleak and extensive - moors that stretched "awayithe father In firm, soured, gloomy, jpqid, n'nsympa thetioj the mother long; since dead, with no congenial society, . With no advantages save such - as a scant schooling .under the severest, circum stances gave, and witir sjach resources as their inborn genius and aspiration supplied. It is no surprise that these wondrous children grew np 'some what morbid and lived in an ideal world of their own. ; They loved each other and yet dwelt apart iq the world of imagination. Nature was idealized by the transmuting pro cesses of their own mental alembic, and they oharmed away the evenings in that dreary home, that wonld otherwise have hung with leaden weight and be numbing care upon their souls (for they were allowed no candles), "by choosing islands and peopling . them with their favorite historical charac ters." Or they "repeated stories that they had previously composed, walking up and down the room as they talked." Bat .these girls, then in their teens, would take to severer subjects, and "discuss the merits of living statesmen," and were interest ed in the political events of their time. Was there ever before such a rarely endowed and positively unique family ? The Stab referred to ex-President Davis's letter addressed to Bishop Galloway, of the Southern Methodist Church, and published one or two extracts from it. It was in reply to some strictures of the Bishop upon his letter on the Texas Prohibition campaign. Of course the Stab holds in high veneration and esteem the noble and very able ex-President of the Confederate States, but that does not blind it to any fallacy in argu ment or failure to state the exact merits of a question at issue. We refer to this again to say, that we have read with care-and profound in terest the rejoinder of Bishop Gallo way, and it is quite a masterly ef fort. He is a decidedly able man, and if any one doubts it let him but read carefully the dignified, courte ous, forceful, lucid discussion and he will see wo do not exaggerate. He meets Mr. Davis with argument and legal opinion, makes his points with directness and lucidity, and presents his side with suoh success that it will greatly tax his antago nist's best powers to meet them. Some errors in Sunday's paper should be corrected. At bottom of -first column, second page, for 'ybrjn of school" read "found a school." Second column, next to last line, "for untaxed brain" read "overtaxed, &o" Third column, near the close of second article "for on such legisla tion" read "for no such, &o." There are others but these will do. The Clearing Honse returns for the last week at New York show a substantial gain of $43,240,291. Bank loans averaged 4 per cent. The net earnings of 66 railroads for Au gust was $3,836,137 in excess of Au gust 1886. CU BRENT COMMENT. Senator Sherman is arguing, to show that a protective tariff is constitutional. He would have to up set the ruling of the Supreme Court to the contrary before he could estab lish his proposition. Bnt it is a com forting thing to know that so distin guished a gentleman is bothering himself about the constitutionality of the tariff. When he shall have got ten back to first principles he will find that the pretension that one man may be rightfully taxed for the sole purpose of enriching another man is one of the most stupendously false assumptions that has ever beguiled mankind. Phil. Record, Bern. It is true beyond all question that if the surplus should be reduced by abolishing the internal revenue taxes the tariff , taxes on the necessa ries of life -would not be cut down. After the surplus had been disposed of the cry would be raised that if the tariff rates were just right to furnish the necessary revenue to carry on the government, and the infamous taxes on the necessaries of life would not be reduced. That this is the purpose of the protectionists, in favoring the abolition ' of; the, internal revenue system, has been confessed by Pig Iron Kelley-rthe author. . of ? the scheme, and the only one of its advo cates with the courage and the hon eaty to confess the : motive that un derhes it. -Augusta , ( Ga.)

TO FIGHT New York Herald, Ind The Republicans have no princi ples to fight for, or they con ceal them very successfully. What the country needs and must have if it is to be prosperous is an adminis tration that represents the whole re- ?ublio front Maine to the Pacific and rom the lakes to the gulf. Now, the Repnblioan party never has done that. It was not born to do it. It is essentially a sectional party, and never has been anything else. It has not only neglected the millions of the South, but it never indorses a party platform without expressing a suspi cion of them. Its business at the present moment is not to unite North and South, but to keep them asunder. It is as plain as a pike staff, therefore, that the next Presi dent ought to be a man who can see Georgia jnst as well as Ohio, and no Republican has had the visual ability to do that. The people of this coun try are not blind to the condition of affairs. They are clear headed on the subject, and are ready to give fair play to everybody, South.Nortb, East and West. Your State elec tions may go as they please,- then, but when it comes to voting for the perpetuity of our national institu tions and a solid commercial and pa triotic union of all sections under a common flag, why, the Republican party has not grown up to such a conception, and is therefore unfit for power. The only party that can represent the whole country is Dem ocratic. OVB. STATE COI" XKM FOR AH I IS. There are indications that the National Democracy will declare in favor of a re duction of the tariff, and the repeal of the tobacco tax. ' Without stopping to discuss whether a part, or the whole, of the inter nal revenue law should be at once abol ished, we submit that it will be in accord ance with the highest patriotism for the Democrats of North Carolina to hold themselves ready to move forward upon the battle line established by the National Democracy. They do North Carolina in finite Injustice who assume that the reten tion of any part of the Internal Revenue system will Imperil the success of the Democracy in this grand old Common wealth. Full of the ardor of patriotism, and impatient at the slightest suggestion of imposition, she has learned that modera tion and wisdom, which comes from ex perience. and knows assuredly that nothing is so intolerable as Republican domination. Wadesboro Messenger. There is no paper in the State that de sires more to see our young men remain at home than the Observer, for in the past twenty years nearly all of our young men have removed to other places, and hare In variably shown that their training was good and that they were made of the right stuff. But while we bate to see them go, we are satin fled that if they had remained at home, that the energy they have shown would have never been developed. It is a rare instance, when one stays in the place of his birth, unless he has qualities theater than the "majority, that ha rises to any de gree of prominence he remains until he reaches near the meridian of life the same boy and with rarely a'handle to his name, he is not liked of all, and consequently there are as many to pull him down as to raise him up and consequently he remains in statu, quo. Besides this the Incentive to work is not as great when ; one stays at home as when one goss away to battle with the world and to bring forth bis latent energies. "A prophet Is not without honor save in his own country" is as true to-day as when " firet uttered.
