Calvin in a com munication to The Herald published yesterday strikes the keynote In regard to the duty of this country and espe cially of the democratic party In se curing foe America the best results from the present war. Mr. Calvin says “The policy of terri torial expansion is democratic;” and he goes on to cite Jefferson's purchase of' Louisiana, the conquest of West Flor ida in 1810, the annexation of Texas, acquisitions from Mexico and also the views of eminent statesmen who long ago thought that the United States should possess Cuba and Porto Rico. There are some who even go further (han Mr. Calvin In his views and who maintain that the United States should hold and control every piece of terri tory won in the present war. It is pointed out that the Philippine islands while not so valuable in themselves, nor so easily governed as Cuba or Por j 10 Rico, nevertheless constitute an en ; trepot of still vaster and richer markets j in the cast.

CHAS B. BEAVIS. The death of Mr. Charles B. Rcavis, which occurred this morning, has cast a gloom over the whole city. He came to Augusta about seven years ago and since the first day that he made this city hts home he has been held in the ! warmest esteem by all our people. He ; was foremost In all public apliitcd movements and carried into them an energy and ability which insured suc cess. He way loyal in every relation of life. His circle of friends was large and he was the idol of that circle. Ge nial and pleasant he carried sunshine wherever ho went. Though the final summons came to him far from Ifie scenes of his youth and earlier man hood, he was surrounded by loving friends who ministered to his every want and comforted his dying hour with everything that human resources could alToid.
