The Ncw-York American remarks-"The resolu- ton of March, 1884, be it remembered, was adopted by the of 26 Senators out of 49-an absolute ma- jority of four.
 "The expunging process was voted by A Senators out of 5O-an absolute minority of ttco."
 Johnson Literature aad Principles.-A day or two ago received the following communication written in delicate little hand, which convinced us that the writer is what it's signature imports, lady. We could hardly conceive it possible that any editor in the country could introduce into his columns either edito. rally otherwise, such base sentiment as that fe. males "need not be ash0psed to be disgrace to the purest oisoloo'' ofeoe;oty Svu. I,ap1. pondent the article from she does not say, nor do (f we knew) care so that we have the satisfaction of learning that it is not of kindred politics with selves. She has quoted fairly and correctly, and her construction is the only one which can make out, which the language will bear, to wit that the editor does conceive it any "shame' for lady to be- come a disgrace to the domestic circle"-in other words, he does not consider disgrace for female to be inmate in the lowest order of brothels. We have fear that these principles are destined to become too common under the new administration of Dick Johnson { Co. Had not our friend Mehita-
 
 should not have noticed it, but we could not well deny lady the use of our columns to express her opinions upon subject where she feels her sensbiity 50 much wounded.
 FOR THE ENQUIRER.
 Pray excuse the liberty am taking, Mr. Adams, in calling your attention to myself exclusively. am in dilemma, perplexity, or some such thing, and want your help get out of it, thinking that what one editor does another can undo. set myself at giving explanation.
 A day or two since, as was sweeping, brushing, dusting, and putting things in their proper paces or dearly love order) came across paper, left here by know whom, but published in this state. Per. ccving to be of late date stole time enough to look into it. passed along some time without meet ing any thing of interest to any body else that knew any thing about when my eye fell carelessy on the editorial part of the paper; and seeing the word politician, and just underneath it "lady in italics as believe you call it-NOw thinks ], I'll see what he has to say to Ws. commenced at the top of the article and read every word of it, but was at loss what to think oft. or how to construe it. read il again and again, and the only way in which I can understand it is this that the editor has the o many females his subscription list, who need Do'
 
 of the domestic freside." (Truy complimentary to his fair readersC The whole sentence stands thus "On our subscription list are many names, who need not be ashamed tO become the companions Ol any good man at the hymenial atar or disgrace to the purest circles of the domestic hHesde."
 Now we don't want this fellow to tel us we need not be ashamed to get good husband-(who ever thought it was a shame ?)-neither do want him to tell uo need be ashamed of life of infamy, to become miserable courtezans, debased and vile.- We want no paper in our free country to circulate such sentiments. such principles as these. It is { shame (and may every virtuous female in America feel it to be such to do augh which shall bring dis grace into our domestic circles. What, Mir. Editor, may we expect of the rising generation they are to have such base stuff given them for their improvement Truly it is lamentable that we have teachers without knowledge Sr discretion.
 There is one thing should think that this crea' ture's female subscribers sCoad be ashamed of-and that s. the shame Of having i. known they patronze such paper, receive it into their families. you Mr. Adams, can put any other construction upon tho above quoted language than what have done, you would oblige me by informing mo of t-ifyou cannot shall be under the necessity of believing tho aulho very waak, or very wiahAd.
