Advertising The War against the Herald.
Ii is now nearly three weeks since four OF the wall
street prints commenced the war against the Herald
-denouncing It's housekeeping its talent-and ad
vsing the community not to read it, not to patronze
it. not TO advertise in its columns. All the mean
fasehoods that Jews liars, rogues, and bankrupts
could invent have been Illuminated against us. In
this business the Star, the American, the Cypress,
and the Journal have been conspicuous. They have
called spoH the public to put down our basiness-and
have requested the newspapers elsewhere to join In
the crusade. One paper in Baltimore, the Patriot,
edited by Isaac Monroe, Jackass-and another
in Nashville conducted by blockhead, have only
Joined them They have also circulated report that
our circulation has diminshed-that advertising
is gone-and that we are on the high road to ruin.
In order to show the generous public how much
effect their SANDERS have caused the popularity and
growth of the Herald, we annex the following state
ment, taken from their columns, of the cash ad-
vertisements of these four papers, compared with
those Of the Herald, during the last week.

Of this eity-the corrupt, laundering, arstocratic

required for two thte years probably and is furnish

the lines where he will be supplied with uniform
clothing and arms. In this way, about 200 men have
been despatched tojoin the forces of the revolu-

CIRcuIr CouRT.- Charge Of Fraud and Coaspiya~
cu and attempt TO rccorer 1872 000.-A special action
on the case, is now pending in this court which has
been under investigation for the last three days The
action is brought by VIM. Harwood, Esq against
John Pendeton and Lyman Taylor Messrs. Max
we'll and Cutting appear for the plaintiff; and Messrs
Bates, Bushnell and Grard for the defence.
The complainant says that conspiracy was form
ed by certain persons, including Pendleton and
others, to induce him purchase the patent right Of
Woodworhs Planning Machine in certain counties Of
New York. That The parties falsely and fraudulent
ly conspred and by means Of misrepresentation in
duced him TO give for the right, notes &c. the va
lue of $4,000, when the right ceded to him was not
worth much above $1,000.
For the defence, il is said that HARDWOOD bought in-
to the establishment of Nuns, Clark q Co. in this
city-ihat he sold out to PeHdleton--tkc latter with
Nunns, and Clark gave him their notes for about
SIC, 600. These they say ne fraudulenty obtained
they advertised them, but he transferred them
TO Mr.. Becker (said TO be Pendleton's agenD for
the patent right, with the intention of getting them
into the hands of innocent third holders. The case

CouRr OF COMMON Pleas Dec. 5th.-Aa action
was brought by Mr.. William p Hastings to rsco-
yer tho Of 5000 from Mr.. Smith police officer for
refusing to show him copy Of the warrant when he
arrested him. Smith arrested Hastings on a war
rant for assault and battery. At the time of first
making the arrest H. demanded copy Of the war
rant Smith refused it. This was on the steps of the
Court of Sessions He took him to the police Office.
Hastings again demanded copy, and rendered the
requisite fees for copy; this refused because he
did net tender specie Hastings asked his friend for
the specie whilst his friend getting out the spe-
Gle Smith refused to give "a copy al all This the
ground OF the action.
The Court charged that in all cases where the h.
bery Of the subject was jeopardized he had right
TO demand copy Of the warrant by which he had
been arrested. Cases might occur where il was in
possible 10 give a copy when demanded; the officer
could not give copy on the steps Of the Court Of
Sessions, because he had no paper; again by under
taking TO give copy OF his warrant in crowd he
might lose both warrant end prisoner But was par
of the glorious privilege secured 10 by the habeas
corpus act that in all where the liberty Of the
citizen in question end the requisite fees were ten
dered copy Of the warrant must be given IL il be nj
all practicable.
The jury found for ne plaintiff. Damages SEQ

LEGISLATURE OF MICHIGAN.

On motion of Mr.. Mcdonnell the Senate

The chair stated that, motion to strike
out all after the enacting clause was the
question before the committee.
Mr.. M'Donnell said there were some
senators opposed TO the bill on the ground
that il was unconstitutional. He would be
the last man to make any incroachment on
the constitution, but the office was created
before the formation of the state constitu.
ZION, and he did not believe that the constitu-
ton had any reference TO the office; and
tho only question before the senate is,
whether the Register shall be nominated by
the Governor as he has hitherto been, or
elected by the qualified electors in con-
formity with the constitution. II will be
found in the Schedule of tho constitution,
which says that all laws in force in the Ter.
ritory shall continue in force until altered
or repealed by the state legislature.
The law establishing the office of regis
ter in the city of Detroit is still in force,
and there is nothing in that law at variance
with the constitution Of the state. It's true
that the constitution provides for the cleo.

D One of the papers of our "exchange,"
mentions the change in the United States Sem
ate. from majority opposed to, to majority
with the administration, as ga Gle nsing of tho
Augean stable!" Now, brother, as much as we
rejoice with you in the reform, from the use Of
scurilous language, though little singular, we
must for ever demur. II is with us matter of
some regret, that for party editor to maintain
a standing of dccency, he must be accounted
singular, almost to eccentrcity. n
A paper came for exchange, in August, from
Ohio, entitled Genius of Liberty" dealing in
personal slang to degree quite demeaning, in
the definition of iberfy--onc editorial article Of
which, headed with the name of an opposition
editor, in capital letters, runs thus" We can
not find time, space nor inclination to notice
this black hearted upostatc, aud these arc en-
tcrprising times, and matters of business and i'm
portance at stake, we cannot stop to skin a
skunk, while in pursuit of a BEAVER" ~
vehicle of such language, is blot upon tho
art of printing--quite too low Genius Of
Liberty" to find place on our exch lnge list.
Though of our own party, we desire no fellow
snip Witn sucn company.
An eastern daily paper has been cut off re-
Gently, from the exchange list Of its wing broth
err, the Buff,lo Daily Commercial Advertiser, on
account of its scurilous articles. That is tho
right way. And better way is, before comply.
ing with the request of a new coming journal, for
exchange, TO ascertain what is its character. If
vile and abusive, have no intercourse-send no
paper in return. If all patrons of newspapers
would be thus cautious, and withhold their sup.
port from every licentious press, our craft would
soon become so purified to stand in higher re-
puto in America, than they have hitherto.
Yet there may often be an evil in. the way of
reform, OH this ground not easily to be remov.
ed. The press is mirror, in some respects, re-
fiecting the likcnesses of the community in which
it exists. In some communities, then, where
bitterness of party rancor has long ragged high,
printer, TO live, (and not unlike most n,echan-
les, printers arc bipcds who try to live by their
labor) must of necessity put OH a little of tho
Camelion. Still, he may, by an uprigh; course in
the onset, soften asperity, and if himselfa moral
man, soon give a wholesome odor to ths atmos.
phere around him.
Though il be indeed true, as doctor of some
celebrity says, that I" There are not few" a.
mong subscribers on whom press may be de-
pendent for subsistence, "intolerant enough to
withdraw their patronage, if the editor give pub
lcity to articles which contradict their cherished
opinions, or shock their party prejudices, seem
to clash with their interests, There is consols.
ton in this reflection, which overbalances all OBJ
stacles.---it is from the candid and .considerato
portion of humanity, rather than from the bois,
ferrous rabble, that the conductors of the press in
this republican country, derive the principal part
of their maintenance.
