It was referred lathe License Coui- •Mttoo. Is sir Judgement the above is a (Sod Measure, and we hope to sec It jjNMi both Houses and become a law. rThe senate pasted by a decisive of 43 to 13 the bill providing for the presidential succession. This bill 4»volvos tlio powers ami duties of the •hief executive upon the members of the cabinet in their order, beginning tilth the secretary of state. Before passage, the bill was so amendetl tlist the secretary of state Is not to fill out •ho entire term of the president, but is to call congress together for the pttr- !••• cf ordering an election, or making fhme other provision for the filling of the executive office.

The striking feature about this dis­ aster is that it does not differ e*c*pt In degree from all amiiar disasters. It ts«otkno*n that the flre might have Tteen prevents,||ibut it is certain that there was a<f unnecessary loss of life. Solar as 'can bo karaed the hotel was peculiarly adapted for the part that it has tin illy and not alto jrthpr unexpect­ edly played, ft was a death trap, and no more fitted to serve as a place for human shelter than the furnaces built, by Belshaszer. The guesU in tt did net enjoy the same immunity from fire that Shadraoh, Meshach and Abedtt»o did, and consequently those who did not escapewiththeirli ves we re roaste d to death like the rats In the hnlldittc. It had been condemned as unfit, for tho proprietors knew that every man, woman and child they welcome 1 was being welcomed to almost certain death. Knowing that the hotel was a tinder- box, likely to vanish In flames and smoke at atty moment. It. is singular that ho prevention whatever <ras made against lire. There was not a single, flre escape. The poor servants in the sixth story and the poor guests in the lower stories had to- choose between a roasting In the flames or a crush on the -sidewalk. Some choose one; sunt* the other; both met the, same fate---death. It does seem strange that kfter so many disasters like- this and so much t,alk about lire escapes, thit we should not have an end of burning people to death with all the noneTial«nce that the in­ quisitors roasted heretics. It dees seem as though some Adequate punishment ought to be provided for that criminal avarice, which seeks by refraining from taking those ordinary precautions that entail a slight expense, to increase its treasures. JKWNPAPKH tKOtlBtn. The newspaper 'business is very ex­ acting on all connected With it, and the pay Is ^o npiritively small; the proprietors risk more money for small­ er profits, aivd th* editors, reporters and printers, work harder and cheaper than the same number of men in any other profession requiring given amount of Intelligence, training and drudgery. The life has its charms and pleasalit associations, scarcely known to the out­ side world; but It has its earnest work and anxieties and hours of exhaustion, which also are aot known to those who think th« business all fun. The idea tbst newspaperdem is a charmed circle, where the favored members live a life of oa*s, anil free from care, and go to the circus at night on a free ticket And travel on free passes in the summer, is an idea which should be exploded. Business Is business, and. tbe journal that succeeds is one that Is run on a square business footing, the same as banking, building bridges, or £o4p- iog a hotel. Without being represented in its ad­ vertising columns we have had people request iw to gratuitously insert this notice, or draw fctt^htlnn to this arti- clo, with the slight suggestion that uit will not c;>st vou anything ro put this in." which is Just as ridiculous as to grind your ax on his grindstone and graciously tell him it won't cost r cent. It takes money to run a newspaper as well as any other business; no paper cau succeed financially that carries a dead-head system. Any mention of people's affairs that they are anxious to see In print is worth paying for and when printed is generally worth as much as any other investment of^ibe same amount.-- Cincinnati Review. * * Tho Philadelphia Evening Tel-' '*•'t^ljgraph rises to remark that "if every ••fseted aspirant for a senator<>iiip Will retire from the field as gracefully ®aex-Senator Ogleshy did in Illinois, ho will strengthen his hold upon the Party.an l do away with much of the •Itternesi which these coutests ofteu v,!7;^ngondor* 4 To which the Chicago Journal adds: »J|The simple truth plainly stated."

Believers in the efficacy of the faith- cure movement will say that the doc­ tors are prejudiced witnesses, because they are afraid tlieir business will be injured, but we will let the profession have tijeir say, anyhow: "If the 1vife of th£ champion faith-rarer should cut an artery anl be in Imminent danger of bleeding to death, would he he so idiotic as to neglect the means for ar­ resting hemorrhage, and instead to annoint her with oil and pray over her, while her llfe-biood gnshed forth? If not. where shall we draw aline9 What becomes of the omnipotence of the Lord, if lie is not able to check hem­ orrhage as well as St. Vitus' dance? The only possible inference from such actions of the faith-eurtrs is that the Lord makes a Specialty of nervous dis­ eases, but Is not posted on surgery--we mean no irreverance, but simply desire to show the absurdity of a position which Is often taken. We believe em­ phatically that the Lord helps the mau who helps himself, and that Redoes not approve of laziness^ but expects men to work hard to discover the secrets of nature and to apply them, to the extent of their abilities, to the cure of disease. Doctors never cure their patients; they make use of the best means they know of, and the Lord restores health. Farmers never raise corn; they plant It, water it if neces­ sary, boo it, and the Lord makes it grow. Ilow morbid or lazy, or both, must a farmer be to go into,.his closet to pray that the Lord may send him crops, instead of lirst going Into his fields to do liis share of the work*'? J9*The Hon.

If aine, in 1815, he pur­ sued a partial course In Watervillc college, studied law aud was admitted to the bar in 1839. He was a member of the Maiue assembly in 1854, and of the senate in 1856, of which he was president. He was elected governor of Maine in 1858. and re-elected in 1859. He was elected United States senator in 1861, to fill the unexpired term of Hannibal Hamlin, who was elected vice president, and in 1863 he was elected for a full term to the same position, and again to succeed William P.
