A Brarant Radical lawyer and his gushingly “loil” wife, who live at the politically ‘benighted village of Hudson, Mich., were recently heavily fined and sentenced to imprisonmeni inthe Detroit Work House for inhumanly whipping a lit'tlei'ipegro girl whom they had taken to raise.’ The child was taken from an orphan’s home, and the barbarous torture to which she was subjected comprises one of ‘the most fiendish chapters in the- whole history of outrages cdmmiy?d by hypoeritical “loyalists.” ; ‘ Y .

Speaking of the heavy gale, of last Friday,. the South Bend Union sb.yé: “The new bridge, ‘'which was fast approaching completion, the contractors- intending to have the floor finiched by last evening, at once became a victim to its ravages. The iron portion of the entire eastern half topplediover,- and was' precipitated into the water, carrying with it nearly'half of that end of the old structure, leaving only a wreck behind. Bad as this was, and deplorable as is the damage; the story’is only half told. The aceident occurred about half past seven o’clock when the workmen had commenced their labors,! Some of them escaped ‘all harm by a little timely warning, but Benjamin White, Wm. Bellow and another man whose name we did not succeed in learning, were less fortutunate. The former was carried into the river by the debris, and only saved himself fram & sulden death by the aid of a: plank until he was rescued by parties who put out into the river.in a boat. Both of his thigh bones are broken above the knee, and he received other injurids, - we understand, Mr. Bellow, who resides in Dayton, Ohio, is injured in the breast and left leg, it is not thought gseriously, however.” The same paper speaks of other accidents ‘of minor'importance. :

Radicals and. the Next Presidency.

- Senator Schurz says that Grant cannot ‘secure the large German vote in the next _campaign, and Senator Sumner thinks the Republican party cannot afford to have Grant as a candidate in 1872. General Logan says it isi doubtful about Graht getting the nomination. On the'iother hand, Butler, Morton, Henry, Wilson, Chandler and Conkling are' ardent for Grant's re-nomination, and think he ¢an be re elected. It is said that Morton - would have mahy backers of the extreme ‘radical ' school for the nomination, if he *would consent to stand in the way of .Grant, which he is now not inclined to do. -Some of the Radical leaders are engaged in working up Gen. Logan as a Presiden: tial candidate, and unlike Morton, he Las “no'squeamishness ‘about-standing in the ~way of Grant, - There is whisperings of -Colfax appearing on the scene about the moment the scramble culminates, and, in familiar: parlance, he is “lying for the nomination,” —Pittsburg Paper. | .

Evil results of Elevating Incompetent ~ Men to Legisiative Positions.

~ (From an editorial in the Ft. Wayne Gazetle.) * % % Qur greatest danger is from the class of men we place in power. . The interest of -this nation, or of this state, are not of so little importance that every aspiring specimen of medioerity should be'pé_rlmitt,ed to pollywag his way to their management. If it is claimed that the remuneration is small and that good men. can“q'ot afford to serve their country, let the remuneration be placed at a point where they can. It is better to pay a man i well for doing something practical than to pay him poorly for doing worse than i cothiig The smart men ot some of our ] state _legis\atures’ have more brains than " honesty. They.are most of them men of l affairs and they gain their seats for specific purposes. Thiey go to legislate for them!s_c\v_es and not for their constituency. — ' They generally have some railroad interests or canal interests or something of the sort at stake, and being rather more shrewd than the ‘milk snd water men around them, carry their points. They are not micn of strict tegrity, and if they ‘can keep out a vote by getting up and nourjshing a squabble, they keep -the small dogs going. i o 'l‘flerel is an urgent necessity that the p eople should recognize the situation and ‘the remedy. They cAn stay at home and growl, but when the time for npmination “comds they are not watchful. * Our solid and honést men are .liot_ in the habit of manipulating these .things. . They leave that to others, 'and the result can hardly be wondered at.

- In Massachusetts a notable exception is farnished to the state of things of which we have been speaking. Within the last, few years there has been an earnest con-{ troversy in the legislature in regard to liquor laws, and the controversy has been remarkably earnest. But we bave heard of no bolts in that body of pet’ty quarrels, ayd the redason is that it is composed ot mien of standing. It has been asserted that there is a higher average of intelligence in that body than there is in the halls of Congress. Let us endeaver hereafter to send, to represent us, men of forbearance and judgment. Republicans .we prefer them to be, but men of sense, they must be, it our state legisinture is not to continue with its present ridiculous reputation.

“Cuba with Pen And Pendil.”

We have just recéived from the pub lishers, Pitkin & Parker, 92 Dearborn St., Chicago, 111.,a new and valuable wark by “Samuel Hazard,” bearing the above title. ‘Here are six hundred octavo pages, filled with entertainment fresh from the Island of Guba, Indeed, Cuba, herself, in all her charms, in all her romance—her cities and plantations—her streéts and her homes—her virtues and her vices—has been photographed by the pen and pencil of Mr. Hazard in the book befure us.— We'are all interested in the beautiful Island, for Manifest Destiny has marked her for our own.? The present struggle of her brave patriots to achieve her indepeundence from Spain, makes Cuba doubly interesting at this moment. In this book we learn all that can be told us of that beautiful Island., The work of Mr. Hazard lias twenty * beautiful full page cuts, besides two : hundred and’ ninety-three other illustrations, of the life and scenery of Cuaba. The style of the author, and his illustrations have a humorous side, reminding us of Mark Twain's “Innocents Abroad.” Phe publishers are now putting agents into the field to sell this book by subscription. If any work will sell in our western homes this,'.Wi’ll. It will sell itself. Individuég'ls wishing the book, ‘or partics desiring the work to. sell, can address the publishers. fan :

Who is Thiers?

Forty-one years ago M. Thiers was one of the committee appointed at the hotel of Lafitte, the eminent Paris ‘banker, to the residence of Louis Philippe, Duke of Orleans to tender hum the throne, then vacant by the abdication of Charles X.— It is an extraordinary proof of his longevity and visality ‘ythat}he should now be as conspicuous in the French Revolution of 1870-71, ‘l}té has passed through safely and is the hero of three revolutions, viz: 1830, 1848,and 1870. Without hissmooth‘ness, versatility and eloquehce, 'Mr Thiers has all the skill'and dexterity of Talleyrand, and no matter what .change of government ensues, he is always upon his feet. The historian of the first French Republic and Empire, e has served the governments of the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy, the Orleans dynasty, the second Republic, the sccond Empire, and now, nearly at fourscore, he. promises to be at the head of the last phase which politics is assuming in France. This wonderful old man appears to be endowed with all the activity and vigor of Young America.

Good Advice from the Right Qu arter.

- The Americus club of Philadelphia elected at a late meeting, W. V. McGrath, Esq.,as President. He gave the following advice to the club, which we hope will be beeded as much as it is needed, thero and elsewheré : i

The experience of the ‘past has proved that it/is worse than idle fo make nomi nations unfairly, or select unfit candidates; Let us therefore, determine to aid.in correcting our mistakes in this respect for the future. Let us assist in establishing the standard of good personal, as well as political character and ability in nowminations. "It is not necessary to hunt for good candidates alone amongst those whoe have grown.old in the acqusition of wealth in business purstits, or among those who have heretofore satisfactorily discharged the duties of official positions; they may be found among the many active, intelligent young and middle-aged men of the party—men of steady business babits and good moral standing in the community, against whom their political cpponents could in truth utter no word of censure or reproach—these are the men to fittingly represent the Democratic party and give 1t success. 3

It is. said that the impeachment trial of Gov. Holden will cost North Carolina $30,000, which amount is thought to be more than the Governor would bring in the market if he was put up at auction.

MEDICINES, FOR HUMORS.

‘These invaluable medicines bave achieved s complete triumph in eradicating Humors of all kinds from the human system.. They were introduced to the public some sixteen years since and have been used with entire success. The Canker and /Sslt Rheum Syrup is taken internally, which cleanses the bloed by throwing impurities to the surface, when the Cerate isapplied externally, and all eruptions are destéoyed, and health and beauty are restored. Their astonishing succese hiascalled out many ignorant pretenders, who bhave introduced their wonderful preparations to the public. They are out in almost every form, from Panaceas down to Pills, and all for Humors. {Of course tlt.‘{?/ are.) But it has been reserved to Dr. Weaver’s Sy-. rup and Cerate to achieve what, under the circumstances, may be regarded-as the most brilliant triumph yet achieved by any medicine ever introduced to.the American public. Why is this? . Simply because -theay perform what tfvxey promise ;-and notwithstanding the introduction of these new and wonderful preparations to the ‘public, the Salt Rheam Syrup and Cerate keep steadily on their way, conquéring as they go. If the public wish to {ry these new preparations we have not a-word to say, ,fol‘: tl}ey have asure remedy to fall back upon, viz: 'Dr. Weayer's Caxker and Savt Ragoy Syrup and Csrare.— Of this fact the public are well aware, for thousands in all sections of the country have heen cured by them, after all other remedies Have utterty failed. ¥ G ol W.

WALTHAM

WATCHES.

The extensive use of these watches for the last fifteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers and Expressmey,the most exacting of watch-wear-ers, has thoroyghly démonstrated the strength, steadiness, durakility and accuracy of the Waltham Wateh. To satisfy that class in all these réspects, is {0 decide the question as to the peal value of theee time-keepéts. AT More than 500,000 pf th watches are now speaking for themselv the-pockets of the peo-p}e-—a' proef and a guarantee of their superiority over all others. - ) )

~ The superior organization and great extert of the Company’s Worksiat Waltham, enables them to produce watclies at a price which renders competition futile, dnd those who buy any other watch simply pay from 25 to 50 per cent: more for thcig watches than is necessary.

These time-pieces combine every imprbvement that a long experience has proved of real practical use. Having had the refusal of nearly every ii:vcntioq_iu watch-making originating in this country or i’.erumpe',omy those were fiuug']] y adopted which: ¢evere testing by the most gkillfnl artesans in our works, and long use on the part of the public, demonstrated to be eskential to correctand enduring time-keeping. e

‘pmong the many improvements we wounld parparticularize:

The invention and use of a centre-pinion of peculiar congtruction, to prevent damage to the train by the breakage of main-springs; is original yith the American Watch Company, who, having had the refusal of all other contrivances, adopted Dodson & Fogg's patent pinion ag being the best and faultless, & o -

Hardened and‘.temk)er‘ed hair-eprings, néw universally admitted by Watchmakers to be the best, are ‘r_x.«‘«:gi ?n_'nll grades of Waltham Watches, i

‘AI Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps, protecting' the movement from dust, and lcssenixi’g the necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary in other watchea; i

Our new patent stem-winder, or keyless watch is already a decided success, and a great improvement on any stem-winding watch in,the American market, and by far the cheapest watch of its guality now offered to the public., To'those living in-por-tions of the United States whete wat¢hmakers do not abound, watches with the above-mentioned improvements which tend to infure accuracy, cleanliness, durability and convenience, must prove invaluable, R
