Thus has passed from the sunshine of a beautiful, and to her a happy world, one of the best of women, warmest of friends, truest of wives and most devoted of mothers. Mrs. Hervey had lired but a few years in this city, but, during that time, ghe drew around her many admiring and devoted friends. She was the life of a large circle In the social relations of this city. Generous, openhearted, cultivated and refined, she was greatly beloved by those who knew her best. Her house was never ctosed to her friends, and her hospitality was open handed and boundless. In the culUvuted^lrcle in which she moved, her loss is irreparable, aod^to her husband and children no words cMr-express* £he deep solitude of their hearts.

AJt&ough tier death had been expected for several tfoothai for consumption had made her its ber life like the dying lamps unsteady jjbtac/imng quivering on the point as loath to quit iMiold atill the news of her death brought tears 16 maiiy «ye&«ad sorrow to many hearts In this City.

"She was ft form of life and light That, seen, became apart of sight Bcdt lost forever to the eye, Rmaftlti* the morning star of memoiy."

The Trial of Nihilists at St. Petersburg—Martyrdom of Bradlaugh.

ST. LOUIS, June 24—The announcement of tlie nomination of Hancock for the Presidency Was received in" this city with a general enthusiasm—not only because the nomination is deemed one likely to win, but because General Hancock is looked upon as almost a St. Louisian. One hundred bombs were fired at Democratic Head-qnarters as soon as the news was received, and cannon are being fired from Luoas Square to-night. All the politicians say that the combination of Hancock and English is a strong one and leading Republicans, particularly those who were Grant men, admit that Garfield is probably beaten.

Hancock came here in 1851, and was stationed at Jefferson Barracks. He was then a Lieutenant, and a most magnificent looking young man. Soon after ha came here he formed the acquaintance of Miss Almira Russell, daughter of Samuel Russell, a leading grocer of this city. The couple met at* party, and, appearing to be mutually smitten, some chaffing comment was made to MisS Jlussell on the subject. She responded: "I would not marry him if he was President:1' but, nevertheless, aoon afterward the wedding took place in Uie family mansion, which 8t6odjust across from where the South em Hotel now is. Mrs. Hancock "was considered one of the most accomplished and beautiful young ladies in the country. Her father died many years ago, but hqr mother, a most changing old lady, lived with her, afld is now at ner home in New York. Mrs. Hsuoock is possesBed of considerable means in her own.right, and has aflrie farm ahd country residence near Jefferson Barracks. She has no sisters living, and only one brother. He is a planter in Louisiana.

General Haiicock remained here at Jef ferson Barracks till 1856, when lie was removed to another post While here he made many acquaintances, and established a personal popularity that has always made him a great favorite. He has almost regarded Missouri as his home ever -since he maitied Here, and often comes here to visit. He owns a farm near. Windsor, Henry County, and was out there superintending some Improvements not over three monUiS ago. At that time he said to some friends at Sedalia that he might one day make his home on his Windsor farm that the surrounding country was beautiful, and that he did not know of a more charming place where he could spend the remainder of his life. He then intimated that he expected to ret,ire from active service in the army.

A great many people are in the streets to-night, and to-morrow night probably a grand ratification meeting will be held. So far as St. Louis is concerned, certainly no ticket could have secured more general satisfaction among the Democracy.

CINCINNATI, June 25.—Winfleld Scott Hancock, of Pennsylvania, received the Democratic nomination for the Presidency on the second ballot, by the handsome figure of 705 votes, as against 88 votes cast for all other candidates, and Was declared, amid the greatest enthusiasm, the nominee of the party. Th« nomination is conceded to be a wise one one calculated to heal -all the old sores and bickerings of party leaders, and from the manner in which it has been received here and elsewhere, will awaken the liveliest enthusiasm and command a most active support.

The history of the nomination is a story of interest It is one soon told, however When, after Wednesday's ballot, it was demonstrated that Hancock had in the convention a formidable following, all the elements combined against him. From the timp of the convention's adjournment ufetil it met yesteriday, every effort was pint forward by the ''bosses" of the partv to weaken Hancock, and bring about, if possible, another nomination. It was a desperate chance to take with politicians, but the New York delegation concluded to take the chance. It was demonstrated to a certainty that Payne, whom Tilden had used as a rampart to cover his own bid for the prize, could not gain strength. Ohio was still sticking to Thurman, so it was concluded to swap horses even in crossing the stream, and the word Was passed along the Tilden line to drop Payne and go for Randall. There was an ulterior object in this. Tilden had no hope that Randall could keep Pennsylvania away from Hancock, and thus prevent a stampede in the convention in Hancock's interest. When the convention met yesterday, the plan had been well arranged. Mew York, which voted in advance of Ohio and Pennsylvania, was to lead off for Randall, ana did so. Pennsylvania was expected to throw her solid vote for Randall, and Ohio was expected to join the syndicate thus formed.

It is coincident with Chicago that the "Badger" northwestern state created the stampede to Hancock. It was evident before she did it, though, that Hancock would be nominated. Wisconsin swung into line her full vote for Hancock, ana from thence forward there was a succession of changes to Hancock. So persistent was the call upon the President to note such changes that he sat down from sheer exhaustion. There was excitement and confusion worst confounded. No voice could be heard above the din. The Clerk could not note the changes. It was simply known that Hancock was the nominee, but it was not known by what actual vote, because the record had not been kept. To unravel the tangle a sup plemental ballot still called the second, was taken., It was quick work then. Everv State voted for Hancock solid, except Indiana, which voted for Hendricks, and one vote in Iowa, which went to Tilden, and two in Maryland, which clung

to Bayard It was then a scramble to get in* and even Ohio swung into line her forty-four votea New York dropped Randall as fast as she took him up. His. glory lasted but one happy moment

The nomination will p"r6voke no discord. It may disappoint a few leaders. It may make sore spots on the few who have always led rather than followed., Th^ name of Hancock will silence all criticism.^ There is no weak spot to Assail. Democrats admire tlie ticket because of the invincible front and Republican^ criticise otily in the sense that it is too strong. One hour after all was over theite was a booming enthusiasm which per1meated every hotel. It stirred the Iemocracy up to the highest point The ticket was so much better after all than had beeh hoped for that the "boys" simply went wild and whooped themselves hoarse. Stump oratory was the order on every street corner, and it was only long after the midnight had borne that with it came quiet.

The nomination of Hancock was, after all, made by the north. The, north offered him to the South. Of the 171 votes cast for him Wednesday, only 74 were from the south. Of the 840 he had yesterday before his nomination was made, but was conceded to be imminent, 205 were from the north and 135 were from the south. Hence, the north and not the south dictated the nomination.

St Petersburg.

ST. PETEUSBUBG, June 24.—The trial of the Nihilist Obnorsky, and of two other persons who Were not arrested and who are accused simply of not having delivered up-Obnorsky, was commenced yesterday before tlie Council of War, which was presided over by General Liecht Obnorsky is accused of Nihilist propaganism and of affiliation with leading conspirators. The proceeding is regarded with the greatest indifference by the public. There are scarcely a dozen persons present and they inclnde the mother, sister and betrothed of the pris" oner.

Obduouski was sentenced to ten years' Imprisonment in a fortress. The others to two months' confinement. General Korawaff will probably succeed General Zouraff as Prefect of St. Petersburg.

Abou^Editors.

Eyery editor loves to have his friends, .and particularly his readers, qill On liixn. They belong to the same fkmilv, as it were. Butwhenyou eallto sett th»edit or.don't stay-too long. Editors are gen* erally very busy in Dupipess hours. If you have any suggestion to mnk,e or news to communicate, state it in the' (few est words possible. Don't offer any ex-i CUB68 or indulge in a long preface to what you have to say.,- Blurt itrjght out: tell the editor you wish,, him well,, pnJ, bid him good-day. Editors dote on stich toen as that they love. tO receive Calls from. them. Don.t argue with them**-

Pi teli right into Hie. middle ofjour sub* j^ct and be, sure to stop writing when you are through. Editors, always like something fresn and original in the way of communications, ana are especially fond of newa But the editor must a ways be the judge of what is worthy of

publication.

thinks his own production the Sest, just

as every mother thinks her baby thd prettiest that ever was born. But thfe editor may be so stupid as to have a different opinion. If so., it caq't be helped. Don't try to argue him out of his notion* If he is too stupfd to appreciate, a good thing you can't expect to remedy his dullness. You may think you area good deal smarter than the editor, and that may be true, but the editor may be responsible and you are not. There is no class of men BO anxious to please a majority of the people as editors are. There Is no class of people so covetous of the good opinion of others. It is well to remember that fact

Temperance drinks are In bad odor. Tliis is what a New York paper says of them: "Temperancc people urge thai many intoxicating' liquors are adulterated.— This-is too true. But there is hardly a knoWn temperance'drink which is hot either adulterated or preposterously dear. You cannot generally get a glass of decent ginger ale for less than fifteen cents, and a very g^od article costs more. The poorest ana nastiest sodas cost ten cents. In only a few places you can get a good cup of coffee for ten cents. It seems as if dirt and greed conspired against temperance drinks. And usually a waiter in a temperance place is neither so clean nor to courteous as the average barkeeper."

•r A remarkable convict in the Rhode Is* &nd state prison is David Peters, a colored man, who fn 1865 received a fifteen years' sentence for assault He Was igaortnt, but when allowed the use of the prison library he soon made astonishing idvances in learning. He mastered arithmetic, algebra and geometry, took a course in logic and rhetoric, ana then tarned his attention to languages. He acquired a fair knowledge of French, German, Latin and Greek, and then took up jurisprudence. He is now reading law, and for a change studies Hebrew, He delivered at a thanksgiving celebration in the prison a year or two ago an oration which was pronounced a remarkable production.
