MIR. EDWARD DANIELS, editor of the State
Journa! Of this city, has been nominated 10y
the Radicals US their candidate for the
Senate in the Fairfax district. Mr.. DANIELS
resides IN Fairfax county. He is north
ern man; he has been in Virginia only Il
few years, but has not been classed among
or office. He has generally been accounted
reasonably iair.minded man for Radi-
cal, though his course as TO the funding
bill has damaged his reputation in this re-
spcct somewhat. Nobody believes that he
would vote to repudate the State debt rs
Senator; yet rs an editor he is always
writing rs ii he would willingly do So.
We trust that he will be left ut home.

THE JAIL AFFAIR

We regret the necessity for the pub
lieation this morning Of the details Of
the examination before Judge Flip
pin, Of the jailer Of Shelby county and
his assistants, relative to the freedom
of the city allowed Luke Padden,
charged with the murder Of Captain
Burr. We regret it for two reasons
because Sheriff Wright, good and
faith'ul officer, is not here to prevent
the dereliction Of duty made 80 plain
bv the confession Of the deputy jailers,
and because we think that, as to the
taller himself, there must be some mis-
appreIeusiOn of duty. We cannot,
and do not believe that Mr.. Harris
would suffer what he considered
wrong to be done, knowing it to be
wrong. Indeed, we have evidence
that he would not, in his order that
Padden should not be allowed to 60 at
large. The crime-and it is crime
thus to permit men charged with
murder TO 60 free and at will must
rest upon the deputy isilers and 9TH
ers who, through them, have had &C
cess to prisoners Of a character al
ways to be carefully guarded. 1t is a
gross crime, a mOckery Of law and Of
iusuce. aud one for which the parties
who thus cOndone with prisoners
should be punished, and to the last
extremity Of the law. And we be
Heve that if Sheriff Wright were here
such would be the course he would |
sdopt. He would first dis
charge the derelict officers, then
prosecute according to law,
making such examples as
would serve for all coming time. But,
unfortunately for. himself and the
public, ne is not here. A dying wife
and q family OF sick children have
for mon ms claimed his exclusive at
tention, and he is thus compelled, by |
an UNUSUAL and severe sfiiction, to
70 the hands Of his deputies
the duties that, by the peoples choice,
have devolved upon him. In a re-
cent letter 10 a friend, in explanation
of his continued absence from the
city, General Wright wrote:
Ny wife has been very i'll since you
left. She j. confined to her bed all /
the time and as helpless SIS an infant,
and requires my constant attention.
I learn that complaints are being
made OF nv long absence. 1 ask you,
As my personal friend who knows the
cOnd itiOn OF my family, to say to any
one that may complain, that am but
doing my duty as q man, q father and
husband. Ny ohice is in the hands Of
a GOOD and reliable deputy, and the
onblic interest will not suffer. II
would like greatly to be at home, but
my duty to my wife and children is
above al other earthly duties.
We are thus particular to defend an
Did friend, and as we believe, faith
fuI public servant, from the reflections
already made Dy those who do not
know his circumstances, in order that
while the public interests are being
yubserved by judicial examination
Iud proper public condemnation, the
m ocent may be shielded and the
public sense Of outrage be directed IN
! proper channel. We applaud this
prompt performance OF duty by Judge
and hope the matter viii not
be allowed to drop short Of the dis
charge and punishment of all the de-
rellct Officers. "Let US have justice
though the heavens fau."
