NOMINATED OF COURSE.

We have not heard from the Democratic and
Republican Conventions held this week. So far
as the nominations for Governor are concerned,
all that remained after the primaries was the
formal announcement that Newton Booth and H
II. Haight were the standard bearers of the op-
posing parties There was considerable opposi-
ton to aaght, in the Democratic party, but the
influence of the Examiner, coupled with the inn
preston that his Excellency was possessed Of
great strength bore him triumphantly along. 1t
will now appear that Haight was not the strong
est man. He cannot get the Democratic vote for
divers reasons. His first election was some
thing to be proud of, and it would seem that our
Governor has his full share of vanity. Witness
his famous dispatch over the signature of " Gov
ernor Elect" How natural for him to indulge
expectations of Senatorial honors and in the fu-
ture behold the White House prepared for his
coming. There is much in the career of Cover
nor Haight that cannot be accounted for, except
upon the ground that he has been altogether i'm
PEELED by ambitious motives. In this he has
alienated many Of bis party How many Repub-
lcan votes will he get against Newton Booth
This election, his Excellency will find much diff
ferent from that of his first canvass. The boot
is on the other foot, and he will find it necessary
to defend himself vigorously,

DEATH OF NALLANDIGHAM.-Clem L. Vallan-
digham died at Lebanon Ohio, on Saturday
June 18th, from the effects of an accidental dis
charge of pistol in his own hands 1t appears
that he was engaged in the defense of a prisoner,
held for murder, at Lebanon, and while in his
private room at the hotel, in consultation with
an associate, he took pistol from the table,
with which to show how the deceased might
have shot himself. Two pistols were upon the
table, one of which was empty and the other
loaded, and by mistake he took the latter He
placed it in his pocket and while in the act of
Withdrawing it, for the purpose of illustration,
it was accidentally discharged and the bullet
lodged in his abdomen, causing death. Mr.. VAL
landigham has been a prominent Democratic
politician for upwards of twenty years and his
extreme views on matters political gave him con-
siderable notoriety, although he was not very
popular-even with his own party. During the
late rebellion, his speeches and views were so
offensive to the loyal people of his State and Of
the country, that he was banished to the South,
from where he went to Canada, and while there
did all in his power to advance the interests Of
mitted to return to his native State, since which
time but little has been heard of him until of
late, when he instituted the 'new departuren
doctrines that are likely to become part of the
platform of the Democratic party. He was ma
tive Of Ohio and at the time Of his death was
about forty-nne years of age,

"The Business Lie."--The Philad elphia
Bee has sting for every transgressor. The
following one is pointed timely and very Just,
and we commend il to the men of promise Lu.
not of deeds
There is so much dishonesty-so much unfair
dealings gross violations of friendship and so
many promises broken which were made for
that very purpose. There is so much domestic
unhappiness caused by living beyond means,
that society seems to be existing on the thin up
per crust of a volcano. But the especial evil Of
the day to which we now direct our attention is
the business lie, The society lie is comparative
ly harmless. The gawky belle wh1 is the au-
lhoress of two lies, one for herself and one for
her Biddy when she says she is not in to her
dear friend, whom she so fondly hates merely
puts a fashionable nobody like herself to tenn
porary Inconvenience, but the business lie may
send thrill Of anger, and cause distress and
loss to dozens who are dependent on their daily
meanest Of lies. When n man promises to pay
YOU money on a certain day, and fails 10 do it,,
either because he can't or won't, he has Occa-
stoned two evils, he has caused you to disappont
others and prevented yOu from drawing on other
resources The business liars also are respOn-
sible for placing honest man in a false position.
In these days of high taxation, official specula-
ton; disregard for promises aud mushroom
snobbery, the really honest man must be content
to remain poor man. until the earthly jails ard
Eternity's penitentiary claim their own. In the
meanwhile let liars, thieves and swindlers
flourish and be wretched honest men can affOrp
to suffer and be happy.
