No national Capital presents more attractions thau Washington City, bat juet now there an appearances at Washing ton that are not pleasant to the eye of Democrats and patriots. Democratic element at Wash ington are not homogenioaa. The President and his Cabinet, and the House and the Senate, are no in such accorded as to assure the future success of the i-arty. Patron age has much to do with this con ditiou of affairs: Senators and Rep resentativer insisting that the election of 1892 meant a Democrat in every Federal office, and the President sternly maintaining his absolute independence of all things celestial, terrestrial or infernal. Senators and Representatives have long ago been made to understand tlat they have no rigdt to patron age, and wnatever favors they re ceive in the way of appointments it a gracious condisoension to be appropriately acknowledged. This is humiliating to the average citi zen, bnt after all they have very little effect on the general wel fare. It is pleasing to turn from this picture and look upon another presenting the Democratic party in its work of reform, so beneficial to every citizen. The tariff was the great issae in the last presidential campaign. The Democratic party promised, in the event f its success, to re peal the McKinley law and re form the tariff. The representatives of the people have redeemed that pledge in the passage of the Wil son bill, and it will no doubt pass tbe Senate and be approved by the President. But we confess to a higher pleas ure in the passage of the bill to re peal the National Election Law. It was a blot on the legislation of the country, and it is to the credit of tne Democratic party that it has been wiped from the statute book. The law had its origen in sec tional bate and was intended to perpetuate Republican ascendency in the Government. If the Democratic party does nothing more than reform the tar iff and repeal the national election law it will be entitled to tbe gratitude and applause of the country. Bat this will not be all. The currency will be regulated and placed on a firm and safe bas is. Some dissatisfaction has been occasioned byjthe repart of a com mittee averse to the passage of a bill repealing tn ten per cent tax on the issues of State bank?; but, it must be remembered that sev eral bills are jefore Congress for that purpose, and the defeat of one may facilitate the passage of another. At all events the weight of opinion at Washington seems to be in favor of the repeal of the odi ous ten per cent tax. Annoyed as we are with delays and disappointments, mortified as we must be at tbe clashing between the President and the Senate, we are nevertheless gratified at the steady advance along the lines of reform. He is not the best Democrat who lookt at the failures, and sees nothing in the triumphs of Democ racy at Washington. DEATH .OF RET. S. D. ADAMS. He Died Suddenly ofjHeart Failure at Weldon Monday. Wkldon, N. C, Feb. ;i2. Rev. S. D. Adams, presiding elder of the Warren ton district of the Meth odist Episcopal Church, South, died suddenly here to-day ofjbeart failare. Tbe deceased was one of the best beloved Methodist ministers of the North Carolina conference and was 63 years old. He entered the ministry in 1852. His wife was at Carthage at the time of his death and the sad news had been telegraphed to her. Grand Jury After Big Game. Dallas, Tex., Feb, 10. The Federal grand jury at noon to-day adjorned until the 20th inat. As a result of the 'jury's deliberations so far. chat body to-day returned a number of indictments which will create sensations when the parties Indicted are arrested.

Marshall Hunt, and Clerk Lednum, of tbe court, have declin ed to divulge tbe names of the in dicted lest tbe persons get wind of it and leave before the marshals can reach them.

We have not ; word of censure fot the venerable and beloved Senator. Ho is one man that be would walk aeross a continent to vote for; bnt, never theless, in cur judgement, Mr. Sim mons should be coufiimnl. Wherein is Mr. Simmons to blame! It he has given oilene to Senator Vance, we are Mire it whs unintentional. He w.i- i citizen visiting the national capital in futherance of his own interests He was not there as the Chairm.in of the Democratic Esccirivo Com i.ittee of North Carolina. II. w;vs there as a private c;t zen, ttut th.i he was chairman of the committee was no secret, and it could not be otherwise than that bis wishes wonld bf consulted and his opin ions asked as to the fitness of per sons for the positions for which the" were makitg application. If Mr. Simmons' pi'.y association had been confined to East 'oith Carolina, there would hae been some reason for limititig his in fluence to positions in the East, but fucd. was not the caee. The whole state was the held of his legitimate operations There is no evidence, so far as we know, that Mr. Simmons sud anything, averge to the aspna iou. of any gentleman, in auy other way than in answer to the direct enquiry of the President. What was he to do when the President asked him as tc the propriety of the apointment sf Mr. Gudyer an-! Major Hale? Would it have been right for him to pUy tbe coward and decline to answer Was he to keep his mouth shut for fear it roald inj ire his own fortunes? He bad no right to refuse an answer? What was that answer? He iujpl s:iid, as we are informed, that he did nr. consider the .-rvuv of Messrs Guder and Hr!n ar such a nature as entitled tln-tri to tbe positions for which they were ap plicants. We do not oay that Mr. Simmous was right in hi- opiuious. but t hat he spoke ni- honest con victions we have no doub. Wo do not see what there is in all this to offend Sdnator Vance, but his conscience is in his own keeping, and in matters personal to himself he is the exclusive judge of tbe propriety of bis conduct. We have been exceedingly an xious that ibis matter enould be entirely divested of personalities aud be considered in its relation to the Democratic party. Whatever his merits on his de merits, Mr. Simmons is tbe official bead of tbe Democratic party in North Carolina, and as such hac been appointed by the President to an honorable and responsible office. Tie Campaign he conducted in 1892 was successful, and the Presi dent has said to him "well done g'.od and faiihful servant." There is no nee-sity f.r the clashing of clans. The North Caro lina Democracy ought to be a unit, and in our judgment the speedy confirmation of Mr. Simmons will be promotive of that harmir, without which ibe future success ol the party is impossible. The idea that every man who favors the confirmation of Mr. Sim mons is an enemy of Senator Vance, is pure, simple and una dulterated nonsense. THE EYVJ. "What is the Newt.!1' Senator Vance having written a letter ex plaining his attitude towards ilr. Simmons, and. Mr. Simmons having replied, it is now for tbe Senate to considf r tbe matter of confirmation in the l'ght thus afforded. Presonal interests sink into insignificance In comparrison with the public good. Congress moves on apace and members draw their pay with com mendable pramptness. No apparent progress bis been made in filling the vacancy on the Sapreme Court bench. The nomi nation of Mr. FTornbloer failed of confirmation and that of Mr. Peck bam is now before the Senate. He may join Hornblower in the search for McGenty, or he may be welcomed by Chief Justice Fuller to a seat with the Associate Jus tices of tbe court. Whicti it wi.l i e no man k .owet h.

Bee Did Say that Jackson Stood "Like a Stonewa'l." On the first page of The Land mark is printed a synopsis of an artice encitled "The Keal Stone wall Jackson." The article ap pears in the February number of the Century magazine and is from the pen ef the late Gen D. tf. Hill. It will be noted that Gen- Hill characterizes as "a sheer fabri cation'' the story that Gen. Bee pointed to Jackson on the Manassas battlefield and said: "There stands Jackson like a stonewall." But the following from the pen of our distinguish ed townsman, Hon. Wm. M. Robbins, which appeared in the Charlotte Observer of Tuesday, sets at rest all doubts as to the truthfulness of the story, which has ever attached to Jackson and made his name immortal. Says Major Robbins: '1 now state positively of my personal knowledge that in the afternoon of July VI, in the heat of the battle of Bull Run, (jen. Barnard E. Bee command ing our brigade, galloped up to the reman t of the Fourth Ala bama Regiment, ir. which I was then a lieutenant, and which had then lost all three of its field oflicers and one-third of its men. including many of its line ofli cers, and which was so cut to pieces that Bee seemed not to recognize us at tirst. and he asked the question. "What regi ment is this!'" We answered him, "The Fourth Alabama." At that time the heaviest masses of the Federals had so inclined to our left as to leave us comparatively unengaged, with little more than a skirmish line in our immediate front; but Jackson and his brigade, who were in position on high ground ab ut e"1 yards to our left, wer b -i ng as-ailed by mighty masses of the enemy who surged for ward like angry waves against Jackson's line which holding fast to its ground like an im movable reck, liespi'.' the fr ritic onslaughts.

Let's go to his assis tance." 1, myself, was there and heard the words: and so did the regi ment, and many of them are yet alive to verify the fact. Ask Hon. James T.

Tiu- trace the origin of tiie?e to the Roman Luper- , The church tried to turn the existing custom to religious ends ; by substituting the name of saints, to whom a year's devo tion would be paid. Possibly the , change may have been insti- tuted on the dav made sacred hv the martyrdom of the Roman saint, hence bis connection with the-e observances. But changes came, and dead saints were neglecte 1, for living sinners perhaps, and iheo'd Ro man custom somehow was transplanted to meirie England, where lads and lasses met on the day of the Italian priest's martyrdom to choose their valen tine by lot or otherwise. An old custom was to throw open the window early in the morning, and the first person seen would be your valentine for the year. The eager swain would insure the right man being in the right place on that morning. But it is historically and physi ologically true that the man clung more to the maid he had chosen than to her who had chosen him, if the persons were not identical. To meet this diffi culty a gift canceled the obliga tion of personal service. A modem legend tells that in this nmeteenth century the good St. Valentine, with Peter's leave, revisited the earth, thinking to find youth and life and love the same as in days of yore. But he found the girls too busy with music and science and philan thropy to receive him, and he came to the conclusion that they were "nothing if not pedantic.'7 and "anything but romantic." Yet the spirit of St. Nalentine will linger, for love is never out of date, and his fidelity marks him as the fitting patron and pattern of lovers for all time. NEWPORT CORRESPONDENCE.
