Seriously, however, these editors have reason

years, will demolish every paper now Published in

altogether wanting in " respectabiIity" Before my
Weekly Herald was absorbing all the country SUBJ
scrbers of the CONNIE ercial in Canada and New
England, Col. Stone did not impeach my "respec-
liability" But these silly, empty men will find,
that, in James Gordon Bennett they have not got an
ordinary antagonist to deal with. During the fifteen
years that have resided in New York, no man or
woman can impeach my character with the slightest

Of mprov ement, intend to issue evening paper

We doubt the success Of the proposed plan, un-
less they walk more in the footsteps Of the "new

general system which has succeeded so well in the
Herald. Our freedom of remark-our resolute pub

But the cash system alone is a Aeshess skeleton
YOU must combine il with mind and industry, and
then you can 90 ahead. No newspaper since the in

TROUBLE AT THE PARK THEArRE The state
ment which we published the other day, that the
management Of the Park Theatre" alias Steve
Price, was trying to shave his opera company ost OF
the difference Of 81 A. and 81 6-the first the va
lue Of the pound sterling before 1892, the latter its
value now-is true to the very letter
The company have signed a ronnd robin," de-
manding their full bond but Price refuses, and will
condescend to reply to respectful request
We hardly ever heard Of any .condsct So utterly
mean and contemplate this is. The last time that
Price was eating oysters at the Terrapia Lunch in
New York, the value Of the sterling pound was
81 a. Since then law passed by Congress
fixing tat s. S6k-but Price, eating oysters still
refuses obey the law He insists that he will ony
paw at the rate of 81 A. and thus shaves the CON-
pany out Of nearly $1,000 during the season.
We advise them to bring action against the
" management Of the Park" They entered into an
engagement by the pound sterling, the value Of
which, as established BY law, is 81 s6s. They are
a. much entitled to that rate, SI,s6i, TO cent
