A LITTLE over two weeks and the
repeal Of the Bankrupt Law will e
into effect The law was originally
intended to throw its protection around
men who had honestly failed in busi.
ness and enable them to start afresh,
so that they might retrieve their lost
fortunes, and be able TO pay their
old debts, though there was no com.
pulsion for them 10 doso. We doubt,
however, whether the law was ever
necessary, and the fact that for years,
Il has been the reliance Of dishonest
men and a premium on rascality, has
shown the damage il has wrought on
legitimate business in oil quarters, and
the absolute necessity for It's repeal.
We believe in no law that protects
man from the payment Of his honest
debts, and allows him to 60 scot free
Of them to the ruin Of his creditors.
An honest man never forgets the sa.
credness Of debt, and is never satisfied
till II is paid; but the average taker Of
the BankruptLaw is only too glad to rid
himself of il. The rush to receive its
benefits between now and the lst Of
September, will be great. Among
those petitioning this week, are Sam1

ALTHOUGH John Sherman has
sworn that he never wrote the letter
to Anderson and Weber that has been
charged to him, and which has been
destroyed, there is said to be a photo
graphic copy of it in existence. When
the perjured old scamp is confronted
with that before the Potter Committee
perhaps he will acknowledge his close
relationship to the father OF lies.

CINCINNATI Is A TERRIBLE HOLE.

A HURRICANE, unparalleled in its
terrific fury, passed over Wallingford,
Connecticut, and other parts of the
New England States, leaving death
and destruction in its path. Twenty.
eight persons were killed outright,
and a large number wounded, many
of whom have since died. Hundreds
of houses were swept away by the
force OF the wind, and it is almost i'm.
possible to estimate the great amount
Of loss.

Four men boarded a train on the

of $500, which they very leisurely
transferred to a sack, and then giving
orders to the conductor to stop the
train, they goi of and disappeared in
the darkness.

Aftcr three days spent In balloting,
during which 2ss were taken, the 30
called Democratic Congressional nom-
mating Convention which met at Som
crsct last week. adjourned without ma.
king a nomination, TO meet here on
the 18th Of September. Such a lot
Of delegates ought never to be allow.
ell to meet any where again on bust
ness Of go much importance. The
District Committee should take the
matter in hand and call primary
election in all the counties ct once, and
let the man who gets the majority Of
the votes be our candidate in Novem-
her. The Somerset delegation has
evinced its inability to lay aside per
sonal preferences and labor for the
good Of the party; il has chung with
a stubborn tenacity to four men while
there are scores Of gentlemen in the
District fully as competent, and equal
ly as much deserving as they are, and
is it any more likely that at the end
Of a month, without further instruc-
tons, they will be any better prepared
to make a nomination than they were
at Somerset? Their action In adjourn
ing without naming candidate was
the superlative Of human folly which
is likely to work serious damage to the
party. The Republicans are already
greatly elated at the result, for they
see, as every body else can, that they
have a better showing to elect their
man this time than ever before. We,
however, hope for the best, believing
that If the delegates were unmindful
of their duty to the people and to the
party, the former will do their whole
duty at the polls in November. But
the Convention should not have adj
journed without making nomination,
and we believe it would have made
one had it not been for the singular
ruling of Chairman Little in regard to
a division in the vote of the Madison
county delegation. After those dele
gates were instructed to vote as unit,
and after the Convention itself had re-
solved that it should, strange as it
may seem, this ruling was sustained
by majority Of four or five. The
candidates hada very proper estima-
ton of the Convention, else they would
never have offered the silly and un.
precidented proposition to submit their
claims to the Judges of the Court of
Appeals. This it had sense enoughto
reject, though IL the candidates them
selves could arrive at some under.
standing, either in that or some other
way, so that there would be but one
name before the Convention when it
meets here, it is probable that it
would make a nomination. The sue
cess of the panty has been greatly jeop-
ardized, and the candidates owe it to
the party to act at once, and restore
harmony, else the District Committee
should be forced to take some other
measures to nominate q candidate.
