O. II. RoTHACKKtt, late editor of the
Omaha Republican and formerly editor
A the Louisville Sunday Argus, in which
his undoubted genius was first displayed,
is dead at the early age of o4, that dread
disease, consumption, having cut him
down before reaching the prime of what
promised to be a very brilliant career.
He married a daughter of Public Printer
Rounds, but after a few years they
as there was little congeniality between
them. The friends of his earlier
days grieve over his uutimely death and
extoll his virtues, which far outweighed
tho faults of this erratic genius.
Thk House has passed Mr,
bo hoped that the Senate will promptly
concur. It will prevent tho necessity
and expense of sending soldiers to tho
lawless counties, and from which no lasting
good results.
The Courier-Journal, Times and other
newspapers art bringing great pressure
to bear in favor of Mr. Carlisle for
senator, and numerous counties aro
holding meetings and instructing for
him. There is no doubt that tho great
statesman is fully deserving of the honor
of an election, but tho same thing can
bo said of McCreary, Knott and Lindsay,
each of whom have served the party long
and well. They are all good men and no
matter which is elected, Kentucky will
bo well represented.
