Hoxie The locofoces did not fulfil their contract

MEAN TRANsAcrIoN.-M alevolence and depra-
vty after certain point Of Impotence lose their pow
er 10 excite the generous mind, and only become
Imaginable and impotent at every fresh effort. Such
is the situation of the rival newspaper press of this
city, in relation to the Herald and its editor and par
ticuarly the situation Of the Courier and Enquirer.
Having for two years tried what secret SANDER, pub
lie dsnunciaton personal outrage and every species
of persecution and annoyance could effect in putting
down the Herald and in destroying the character of
its editor but finding all harmless, their malevolsnce
assumes new and laughable form-that Of initiating,
Pifering and plagarizing property and talents
Let us explain. In the "Courier and Enquirer" OF
Saturday we find the following article:

About week ago we originated designed and pub
lished description of the "Loafer and Lecofoco
Meeting in the Park" II was repubished in the
Weekly Herald last Saturday, and has created much
first published IN the Herald young gentleman
quite yeuth-but possessing remarkable originality
Of genius in the art Of design-was so amused with
the description in the Herald, that he seized his PEN
a common pen-and sketchsd off design Of the
Meeting, with spirit and humor that remind one at
once of the power of Hogarth in the same line. Mr.
J. X. Blocker, the Of James w. Blocker, Esq,
is the young gentlemans name-and though hardly
yet of his teens, he has developed genius for the
arts of painting and design, of the highest order and
originality. Calling into his fathers Office, in Wall
street, he showed me the sketch. 1t struck me at
once as one of the most spirited humorous and pic
turesque designs, and after suggesting few additions
mo alterations could be madehe presented it to me-
i Immediately employed an artist Of the name Of
J. Butler TO the wood from the SKETCH
exactng pledge that would be in readiness for our
last Weekly Herald, in which was published the on
gnL description. Instead of this engagement being
complied with, this Butler very eoolly, after had
warned him not 10 do so-remindng him that il was
my property-goes and sells 1t to the managers OF
the Sunday News" which is now mere tender
10 the Courier q Enquirer, and is supported by tina,
establishment TO do it's dirty work. But this is ne,
all Butler the engraver, has the a,rocous meanness
10 put forth his upon it, and to conceal the
name of the highly ingenious artist who drew and de-
signed il.
The meanness audacity, and oolimpudence of this
transaction is probably without a parael-and the
part which the "Ceurier and Enquirer" takes in the
transaction Iustlfes in the belief, that webb and
his enPloyss have concoced the whole thing merely
ost ofspite to the Herald We have determined how
ever 10 bring Buer to justice for bis breach Of con-
tract When demonstrated at the time against his
conduct what" said the fellow, do you take

"you are a boot maker-I am boot maksr-Shaks-

MAKERS in fulfilling Their engagements"
