which tie MszIboso' Convention he's
conferred upon the county II select
ing Judge Ford a. IL choice for A.

there was : friendly rivalry between
Calvert and Charles On the one part
and Prince Georges and ST. Mays
% the other for the privilege Of
naming the candidate. the frss-men-
toned counties fayoring Hon. John
w. Mitchell and tie latter, Judge
Ford. After the eleventh ballot was
taken. however, the name Of Mr..
Mitchell ives witklrawn BY DR.. Haw-
kins. Of Charles, and then, on motion
Of Mr.. Gray. Of Calvert. seconded By
Mr.. Cox. Of Charles. the homination
Of Judge Ford was made unanimous,
The Judge. who was il attendance On
the October term Of the Prince
Georges Court at the time. being wait
ed upon BY committee. appeared be-
fore the Convention and accepted the
nomination in brief address, speak
ing, says the newspaper report, inthe
highest terms Of the character and
qualifications Of Mr.. Mitchell and
stating in conclusion. that if elected,
he should continue to discharge the
dnties Of his place without fear, favor
or affection. OF the legal learning
and ability Of Judge Ford and Of his
experience on the bench. we shall not
here speak. but since he has referred
to the subject himself, we allow our
selves to say. that no man. in our
judgment. has ever dispensed justice
in this Circuit who can present q re-
cord more upright. fearless and inn
partial, and especially impartial. Not
q citizen of this community. from the
humblest to the highest. can truth
fully allege against him one act of
partisanship or one evidence Of par
tran or personal bias in his decisions.
Democrats and Republicans. black
and white. have stood upon an equal
footing in his Court and received JUS
tice and consideration with the same
impartial hand. The political COM
plexion Of no man has weighed in
the dispensatiOn Of Justice. but every
anitor has stood markedly upon his
rights and been dealt with according
to the merits Of his cause. And this
i as it should be. Sound political
principles are no doubt important
things in the selection Of Congress
man. and hence it is not to be ex-
pected that republicans will vote for
Mr.. Chapman or democrats for Mr..
Holton, but what the community need
in Judge, besides judicial PROPERTY
and fearlessness, is a wide knowledge
Of The law, the ability to grasp and
quickly unravel the intricate and con-
fusing issues which are almost con-
stantly brought by learned and astute
lawyers to the attention Of the Court,
with a non-partisan temper. Be
lieving that Judge Ford possesses
these qualifications in eminent de-
gree, We respectfully ask for him the
support Of thoughtful and rejecting
men in our county and throughout
che Judicial district.

Eighty Murderers. From the London Spectator,


 What prospect is opened out by the phrase tfighty murderers," if it be really applicable at all. For is there not some dan ger that with the spread of half-education it may increase upon the other types of murder, and become one of the more common When murder is done by one who lends his whole soul to the murder, and then suffers, as he must do, the strong remorse to which strong natures are liable after their strongest asser- tions of their own will, we know what it's limits must be. But when murder is done by light-minded man for a light. minded purpose and the computations which he feels afterward are as light comparatively as the motives of the crime, the prospect is much more terrible. For it suggests pos sibility that, with the crowd-the growing crowd-of impressions to which children are subjected in what is called education, even the roots of the conventional majority may be so greatly weakened that men who might appear simply weak and amiable on 8 super ficial acquaintance, ought still to be ranked amongst the most dangerous enemies which society has. Only conceive the result of any great multiplication of weak characters any one of which may be thrown off the track of social morality by the merest jerk of sud den yexation or sense of want. Is there nothing in the spread of fippant agnosticism on the one hand and the multiplication of in- tellectual apologies and excuses for all sorts of ways of looking at things on the other, to render it very difficult to engrave on the minds of modern children the old awe of any violation of the decalogue? If men sin with all the lighter heart for believing in no judgment of sin, they will certainly commit crime with all the lighter heart too, till at last the instinetive horror of it may greatly dwindle, and calculation alone retain it's full weight in deterring men from it. What we fear is gradual frittering away of the spe- cial gravity with which men have hitherto regarded the greater crimes, and the blurring of all the moral distinctions between these crimes and ordinary faults.
 Of course the law will continue to distin- euish between that which is gravely crimina and that which is immoral but not gravely criminal; but then the first effect which the spread of the new doubts about eyerything,l
Morning journal and courier., 1882-01-31

and the waning of the old instinctive horrors, seems to produce, is loss of reverance for law, and a growing disposition to believe that with sufficient resources the law can be evaded. Of course, both Guiteau and Lefroy knew perfectly we'll that if they succeeded in their murder, and did not succeed in making their escape, they were liable to capital pun
 ishment. But none the less, they dared it,
 and dared it apparently with light heart,
 that is, without even seriously impressing
 themselves with the magnitude of their crime.
 And as intellectual impressions multiply in
 number, while the primary moral impressions
 wane in force, the criminal law will no long
 CT retain it's old authority, but will more and
 more tend to be ranked with the civil law of
 the land No doubt, while the punishment
 of death is retained for certain offenses, these
 offenses will continue to excite certain hor-
 TOT which other offences do not excite. The
 mere liability to capital punishment brands
 the whole class of crimes for which it may be inflicted with brand of it's own. But though we fully admit this, and hope that we may never see capital punishment abolished for the worst kind of murder, yet, none the less, the rapid growth of unsettling ideas and the rapid diminution of moral dreads, will tend steadily to diminish the awfulness of the criminal law, and to render highty crimes of 8 grave character more and more probable When there is not sufficient foundation of character to make the utterance of falsehood, without some very clear and specific tempta- | ton, improbable, there can be little chance of any instinctive horror of more serious crimes The man who pours out lies only ! because they come easily to his lips is not at all likely to recoil from worse breaches of the
 moral law, except on the ground of penal consequences. Indeed we believe that bro- ] ken down characters-i e., characters with out any determinate set for either good or | evil in them are worse omens for the social future than absolutely bad characters them l selves. The latter, of course, are individual | ly more terrible, but they do at least seem to l impress on the world the significance of both good and evil, in stronger colors than ever.
 Broken-down characters imply broken the minds, even of it's weakest members, the great commands.

Alexander Lymnn HoIlev,

Alexander l.. Holley, who died Sunday in
 Brooklyn, was born in 1882 at Lakeville,
 Conn, where his father, Gov. Holley, still
 lives. He was graduated at Brown Univer-
 sity at 21, and was educated as an engineer
 at the Corliss Steam Engine works. From
 1856 ts 1861 he edited and contributed to va rious engineering publications and published
 his Railaoay Economy, and, in connection with
 Zerah Coburn, Report ona European Rai1- aoass In 1862 he was sent to England pro- fessionally, and while there devoted his at- tention to two subjects, the Bessemer process with heavy ordnance and armor carried on by the British government. One result of the visit was the introduction of the Besss- mer process into the United States; another was the publication, in 1864, of "Holley's Treatise on Ordnance and Armor." The first Bessemer steel works in the country were built by Mir. Holley for John A. Griswold 8 Co.,, at Troy, in 1865. The numerous and extensive works of this kind since erected at Harrisburg, Troy, Chicago, Joliet, Pittsburg and St. Louis were either wholly or partly planned by Mr. Holley. At the time of his death he was consulting the engineer for the associated Bessemer manufacturers of the country. Mir. Holley was a member and off cer of three engineering societies-the socie- ty of civil engineers, the institute of mining engineers and civil institute of mechanical engineers. He was trustee of the Rennse- laer Polytechnic Institute at Troy, and had been for some years lecturer on the metal
 urgy of steel at the school of mines of Col lmbia College in New York city.

Left a will.

Until Friday last it was supposed that the late Thomas R. Cruttenden, of Bridgeport who committed suicide when temporarily in sane, left no will, but on that day one was found with his other valuable papers. The Standard says: ''It was executed April A. Staples and Isaac c. Fowler of this city, and Henry G. Hill of South port. By his will he gives $500 to the Albany Rural cemetery for the care and preservation of the lot and monument of his father, Robert G. Cruttenden. All the bal ance of his estate, real and personal, he gives to his wife Frances, and makes her sole executrix. She has, however, declined the trust and at her request William Russell, Esq, of Albany, an uncle of the deceased and James Staples, of Bridgeport, have been appointed administrators with the will an- nexed. The appraisers have not quite finished their duties, as some of the bonds are of so high character that they seldom reach the market At par value they amount to $1S,- 12O, and are doubtless worth $21, ,5OO In addition to these there are notes amounting to $11, 800, secured by first mortgages on real estate of most ample security, making $33, 300 of personal estate, not including his household effects, which are valuable. His real estate has not yet been fully examined. For one parcel alone on State street he was offered, shortly before his death, $9, 1000. The entire amount of bis estate will doubt less realize from $45, ,OOO to $50, 900 or more. His debts are inconsiderable, as his practice was to pay cash for almost everything, even his household expenses. Mrs. Cruttenden is of ample means in her own right"
