Remember these facts a they may savo jou trouble The Supremo Court of Illinois has recently confirmed a verdiot of 82,000 damages given by tho jury to a widow, made so by ardent spirits sold to her late husband. The facts of the enso it is unnecessary to recapitulate Tho dc- fendant supplied the man with that which rendered him incapable of self care. He went to bed upon a railway track, and was found dead tho next morning. Judge Scott, in reviewing the case, said: "He who deliberately sells that which he knows will inflame the passions, de prive the party of the control of his judgment, and lender him fdt the time being incapable of exorcising proper care for personal safety, or tb at of his property, mufst bo prepared for the con sequences that may follow." Ix seems that some people cannot pos sibly bo happy unless they are engaged in President making. It has been go ing on to a very considerable extent all over the country for tho past few months, and now a new box of candida tes has been opened at Washington. The papers of the Capital City soem to be particulary lively in this respect, and the issues of last Sunday just overflowed with suggestions. A correspondent, described by The Sunday Herald as a very prominent gentleman, urges the nomination of General Sherman by the Democratic party, stating that he is the most popular nAn in the Eastern States, and that tho removal of tho headquart ers of the army to St. Louis will have the effect of rendering liiin tho most popular man in tho West. An anon mouse correspondent, in the same pa per, refers to the possible candidature on the Republican ticket of Chief Jus tice Waitc, but speaks in terms of praiso of Secretary Bristow's action, in his short time in the Treasury Department, and nominates Lim as tho standard bearer of the people for 1870. Then there are Blaine, and Hancock, and Morton, and Logan, and Conk ling, and Thurman, and Heudricks, and Pendleton, and but we are all out of breath!

It look now n if Senator Hamlin, of Maine, would serve another term in the United Slates Sonnto in spito of tho cp position to him. A ainpular feature of tho contest is that all of tho candidates aro liic-long oflicc-holdcrs. Mr. Haoi lin has been in oflhe almost from the titno he bccaoio of age, nnd his cetnpcll tors, Gov.

This fact greatly diminishes the chaneoot a successful opposition to Mr. Hamlin, since tho main objection to him is that ho has had his nose in the public crib long enough. Tribune. General Gabfield was renominated by the Congressional Convention of his district, at Faincsvillo, Ohio, on Ihurs day. The vote stood 100 to 34. the latter being all blanks. Tho active op position which had been manifested to his renomination led many to suppose that the contest would be close. The result, however, was to bring out to the primaries tho entire Republican strength, and to give him an overwhelm' iug majority of the Convention. There is no doubt that the opposition to Gar Geld is a good deal demoralized, and yet it is intense and bitter in tho extreme An independent nomination is talked of. and the name of Lieutenant Governor Hart is suggested.

Tho Republican Convention of Montgomery county at its lato session renominated Gov. Ilartranft. The election dees not take place until next year, but it hss been understood by th people ot the atnte that tho Governor will be renominated. It is doubtful if be will have as much opposition as at last convention, when it was very slight. We suppose the honor of first suggesting the renomination of our excellent Gov ernor must be given to the Constitu tional Convention, which made him the only man on earth eligible to re-election to that office. Gov. Hartranft's career has becu a wonderful one. He was the worst abused man that ever stood tor office, yet he was elected by ono of the largest majorities recently given a eoV' ernor in this State.

Coal Gazette. Amsri-a the Paradise of Thieves. WXTERE OUR CRIMINALS COME FROM. The story of Charlie Ross, tho bright boy of four years who has been kidnap ped from bis parents and home, has sent a thrill of alarm and horror into every family, and almost into every breast. There arc few who would not cheerfully join a mob to lynch the pre petrators of this atrocious crime, were they but known. Ihe "dangerous clas ses, as wo call them, are becoming so numerous, so well organized, so power ful, that it will become a necessity for every honest man in the couimuuity to become a polios officer, and aid in the extermination of these bands of thieves and burglars. There is not a govern ment of a State or iotvo in Europo where felons, thieves, and rogues of all classes will not be dealt leniently with on con dition they will go to America. It is said that in one of the Continental na tions four years ago, teachers daily went into the prison to teach prisoneis Eng lish, bclore they embarked for America, to which country they had agreed to go on coiiuitiou that they were released Thus the United States has become the receptacle of the felons of Europe, Neither is it mush better amonast us: if thieves, and suspected thieves will leave the county or town, with a pledge never to return, magistrates and jurors are often but too happy to get rid of them on such easy terms. Yearly crowds of smart, clever, well educated boys aro turned out from our public schools and frea academies, who would be glad to learn soma trade or honest employment, but the trades, un ions forbid taking apprentices exceptiug under the most limited restrictions, pnd these bright boys become idlers, and fin ally thieves. The criminal classes arc not only numerous, but they are so thouroughly organized, so powerful, aud so wealthy that they control and com mand the best legal advica and the most powerful influence that money and talent and perfect organizations can ob tain. The robbing of banks, the forg ing cf bonds, the couterluiting of stock certificates, and the kidnapping of Char lie Ross are tho work of tbeno danger ous classes, who can only be extermin ated by a ccrtainity and severity of puu isbment which is not visited upon them here, and which alone can prevent the United States from continuing to be what it has long been, (he paradise ot hieves.
