Yes, you shall see. The "Radical Council" paid out in 1868 for "salaries $7,378.

And the Democratic Council of 1869 paid out for salaries f9,710. Do you see it? •„.«»«

THE

fair presumption is that the editor

of the Express never read the report made to the Council in 1803, and signed by L. A. Burnett, Sam'l K. Allen and Thos Dowling.—Journal.

The fair presumption is that if you had read that report, you would have known who signed it, and would not have made the mistake of putting Mr.

BURNETT'S

name on it, as he had nothing to do with the matter.

A CORRESPONDENT, whom we would like to oblige, could we consistently do so, sends us a commnication making very severe charges against one of the Democratic candidates for the City Council. It jes not appear likely that that our correspondent's hard words would butter anybody's jtoreneps, if put in print, and they *eem to savor inore of passion than of reason. Upon the whole, therefore, the communication must go into the waste basket. Whenever dutv requires severe personal ities, we shall not shrink from using them, but we do not recoognize any necessity for that line of warfare in the present instance, All the candidates are well known in their respective wards, and the voters of thwe wards are properly supposed to be the best judges of their fitness for the positions to which they pire. To them we are willing to leave the issue without embittering the contest by an uuonomous attack on one of the nominees. This mneli, by way of explanation, wa have thought due to the friend whose communication is rejected and it may furnish a hint to others.

Upon rare occasions it may be right to a',tack the personal character of aspirants for office, but such occasions are rart in• ?•«/, and whenever they may occur, it will be better to furnish the editor with evidence justifying the proposed charges, and let him present them editorially, assuming the responsibility therefor. Such a course is decidedly preferable to anony•"mous communication'',, or those "published over fictitious signatures.

The Libertine Press.

From Harper's Weekly.] The-conduct of the Prince of Wales has been very freely critised by the press both in England and thifl country, and a suit for slander has now been brought in his name against a newspaper in Sheffield, which had stated that he would soon be implicated in another action for divorce. The fact calls attention to the extreme freedom of personal comment by the press in both countries. It is a liberty which has become license. It has been so abused that nobody of experience or intelligence now believes any damaging personal comment in the newspapers without further proof. The rule^ of taking no notice of newspaper aspersions is a good one, and to very conspicuous persons it is an unavoidable one but it is undeniable that the constant reiteration of a slander produces an effect. The pecuniary success of what may most truly be defined as blackguard newspapers shows that there is a decided popular taste for personal scandal. The inroads of the records of what is called personal intelligence upon the best newspapers are an other illustration of it. And the practice is now pushed to such an extreme^that nobody can be sure that his most private letters and most onguarded woras may not be served up for the public amuse

The consequence of this practiae is that the press becomes formidable not by reason, Dut by terror. It levies a universal black-mail upon society. A person appears as a reporter, and instantly a man who shrinks from notoriety, and with whom the public has no concern, tempted to propitiate him by servility or to bribe him to silence. But as the most honorable of men will not serve as purveyors of scandal for the public, those who will serve have every body at their mercy. They may distort and invent at their pleasure and he is a very foolish fellow who believes that people say what the interviewer elaborately reports them as having said. We have known a reporter te call upon a gentleman, who told him that he had nothing whatever to sav upon the subject suggested, and wished not to be publicly mentioned in any manner. But the jackal, knowing that his lion, the public, was hungry, printed a story of the interview, with all the remarks that were not made. It is an illus' tration of what happens daily and noth is more truly edifying than to see such a newspaper pluming itself upon its defense of public morality. Indeed, the papers which endeavor to establish a control by terror, the Robespierres and Marats of the press, imitate their prototypes. As Marat called his sheet the

People,

Now, if shrewd and honorable editors make an interesting paper without pandering to the blackguard taste of the public, they detach from the support of the blackguard papers those who ouv them because they find them more entertaining than others jrnd thus the line will be draws. The blackguard papers will not be ruined, indeed, for Uj,ey can always count upon a fellow-feeling i# .pertain part of the public. But honorable men who become journalists will prefer to make money henorably, and will decliue the other kind of service. In this way the real dignity and worth of the press may he advanced, while just in the degree that t&e libertinism increases the character and jclvjlizing power of the press will decine. The toucfi of the libertine press soils every cause as it dishonors every person. Its advocacy is Xelt tp be either venal or sensational. Its object is that of the pirate and of the adventurer to make money

AMERICAN &IRLS.

Described hjrOne of their S^x.

American young girls in their iegfia, •all over the country, are distinguished by certain general characteristics, which, though superficial, give some index to national character. Nobody has ever called them stupid. Their bright eyes, rather attenuated features, and undue development of the nervous system, all attest their mental precocity. The growing girl is,tormented by the wish to dress better, and to be prettier and more popular with the boys than any of the other girls of her circle.

Such are the aspirations which 6orfe between her and the pages of her French grammar and the perplexities of piano practicing. But she knows that French and the piano are to be, in some dim way, adjuncts of that conquering career which she believes that the future holds out to her and so she forces her unwilling mind to take just enough of these and other kindred tasks to enable her to pass muster creditably This is not hard, because she is naturally quick if not deep. For the rest, her time is divided between amateur flirtations, anxiety about the smallness of her waist, the length, color and waviness of her hair, the cultivation of her complexion, ar4ent aspirations, after expensive jewelry, writing sentimental letters 'to school friends, and resolving the problem of getting her foot—naturally small and delicate, as a rule—into a. shoe one or two sizes too small for it, according to her capacity .for physical torturp. One thing I had almost forgotten to enumerate. Considering, the multiplicity of ber occupations she manages to. do an immense' amount of light reading. Notlis ing in the sensational line comes amiss to her, from the dstfly paper to the Jast new novel. She is not afraid of anybody nor of anything. Iler complaicency and .self-possession are unalterable. She has an aplomb

which an English woman (Iocs

not acquire till she is forty. Diffidence in the society of her elders is unknown to her. She is always sticking in her word upon every subject that comes^ up in conversation—whether it be the origin of the Pyramids, the age of the Sphynx the pre-Adamite structure, the authenticity of the man in the moon, the present state of Europe, operations in Wall street, the whole duty of man, the Suez Canal or Mrs. Wiggle's last hop. And on each and till of these subjects, and a great many others too numerous to mention, she has an opinion of her of her own, which she is sure is better than that of anybody else.

When this irrepressible girl gets a little older, and begins to.investigate the subject of her rights and wrongs, what can you expect? When she g,ets to thinking about these matters, you may prepare yourself to hear from her. Curiously enough, up to the epoch when she begins to take an interest in the matter of her lights and wrongs, she invariably regards man as her humble servant, who is to be oil hand to escort her to operas and concerts, ask her to waltz, or make one at croquet, pick up her handkerchief, carry her bundles, keep a seat for her in' the cars, and give it up enthusiastically the moment she "makes her appearance, allow her to flirt with him till she 'is tired of flirting and then offer her a home- as luxurious as his circumstances will permit, and allow her to do pretty much as she pleases ever afterward? All at once she awakens to tlie conviction that the aforesaid man is a tyrant, and that she is his slave. Remember that I am not talking of the one-in-a-hundred sort of young woman—who is really superior, and who, though progressive,-has right ideas on the woman question—but of the common run. I am very sorry to say that the ordinary young woman doesn't 'awaken to the conviction that man is a tyrant, and that she is his slave, until she has had- "a disappointment," or is tired of flirting, or until pickles and pies, tight corsets and tight boots, heavy* chignons and thin clothing, want of sufficient physical .exercise, and want of a sufficient of whdlesotue mental labor have made hersftidtnthropic, or dyspeptic, ornervous.-Mfifote-ard Glyndon.

so these papers assume to be the

guardians of public virtue. The remedy for this primarily lies in the editorial profession, and not in the public. It is useless merely to denounce and decry the libertinism of the press as shameful. All sin is shameful but many sins are profitable, and men love money. No editor or proprietor would publish a blackguard newspaper at a constant loss any more than a man would keep a gamb ling-house or worse unless he made money by it.

Herald.

It was decried as a disgrace to journalism, as a moral nuisance and past. But the Herald

kept on its course and flourished

exceedingly, and has survived, apparently still prosperous, many of its warmest assailants. The burets of moral indignation spent themselves without result.— The truth is that the public wants entertainment in a newspaper. It is not news only that it seeks, nor didatic morality, and there is a large part of the public that delights in penon&l scandal. The same curiosity that carries old people to look at the dead body of a person whom they never knew, or tnatdrtws the young people to crowd a church to see the marriage of those in whom they h&ve no interest, whets the appetite of thousands of readers for every kind of gossip.
