The two most brilliant young Journal
list of this country are Whitelaw Reid
editor Of the New York Tribune, ant
Henry Watterson of the COurier-JOuHal
They are the rising and shining lights Of
the American Press, and are destined "a
wear, with unfading honor, the respective
mantels of Prentice and Greeley. The
Tribune could not dispense with the ser
vices of the one, nor the Courier-Journa

Revolution In Peru.

The ill-starred Republics of South
America are all the time in trouble
Report now comes of a revolution in
Peru. Scarcely had Spain become quiet
ere the impracticable people OF Lima
went to war; but we are glad to note
that this is likely to prove of short du
ration, il, indeed quiet is not already
restored. The rulers and the people OF
those countries are all alike. They and
their ancestors for years before them,
were born in revolution and Graded in
the storms of civil war. 1t has become
second nature with them TO create and
foster civil disturbances; and, until diff:
erent race of people come upon the stage
of action, or their people and rulers learn
a better and more conciliatory spirit, they
may never hope TO remain peaceful,
happy, prosperous, and free.

The wild hunt for "filthy lucre' has
wrecked more lives than that of young
Robert Atwood, of Louisville, who but
recently stood so high in financial and
social circles. The custom Of gold and
stock gambling, is almost as baleful in
its influences as that of any other kind
of gambling. The stock and cotton.ex.
changes, the faro-bank, and the prize
ring; each has its direful effects upon
men. The sudden shock to the financial
and commercial communities of Louis
vile bt the forgeries of one Of her SEEM
ingly fuccessful, honorable, and thriving
young fnanciers will tend to put men
on thSr guard as to the honesty of any
one eke of their fellow-men.
The conduct OF young Atwood in
forging paper, etc, to the amount, per
haps, of over 500, 600; and that too after
he had borne character all his life for
sincerity of purpose, honesty, and in
tegnty; only shows the frailty of the hu.
MAJ heart, and to what desperate ends a
MN will resort to bolster up his fortunes
end retain his name and fame as finan
cier. The honest debtor who sinks his
fortune in honest endeavors TO accumulate
money and other property; or the one
who is ruined by some unforeseen calam-
nifty, still retains the respect of men but
he who forges the name of friends to
paper with view to obtaining money,
can lay no further claim to honor or the
respect of his fellow-men.

HON. Va. !. DUamAM.

The people of this county, and Others
of the District, have been siagularly
fortunate in the selection Of members OF
Congress for many years past.
The two terms Of Hon. b. j. Clay
the one of Hon. Aaron Harding; the
two succeeding terms Of Hon. Jas. b.
Beck; and now, we have just put in
nomination the Hon NJ. j. Durham.
Not every District in the State can boast
of such list Of able and excellent
members.
While we would not, for moment,
detract from the standing and ability of
the gentlemen who opposed Judge Dur
ham in the race for the nomination, we
are compelled to admit that Kentucky
has never sent more gifted, worthy,
and ableman to her national Legislative
