PANTY but jocuary.
Indeed, we always believed so. Capt. Fitzgerald

courtesy they have received in New York. The old
feelings Of hostility between the descendants Of the
same race, though living in different countries and
under different forms Of government, has merget Of

qualities of each other Indeed, England is proud,

Trenton and Philadelphia Rail Road running OF the

This is right. There 10 no rail road, this side OF

the rails in consequence misplaced Nothing can
be more dangerous. In fact the jury gives less than
$500 they ought to be fined also. These rail road
accidents are increasing, and ought to be punished
One has Just occurred at Nashville. They arise
principally from the avarice and graspng policy OF
corporations.
The FINE CoMMIssIoNERs.-We understand that
the Insurance Offices refuse to pay their quota OF
the money allotted to the Commissioners by the
corporation law. This is unjust in the extreme
The insurance Offices here reap all the benefit OF in
surance, and contribute nothing towards the Fire
Department, whilst in Europe the Offices have to
sustain all the expense. The Commissioners have
proved themselves useful and efficient officers, and
the number of fires have been reduced since their
appointment; the least thing, therefore, the insurance
Offices can do, to pay the quota of expense required
of them by the fire laws.
SELLING PonoS.-A very beautiful girl has
Gently destroyed herself by arsenic in New Orleans
Scarce week since Ann Causela did the same in
this city; and two days ago young girl applied for
poison at a store in Broadway, received an enetic
instead, and swallowed it, believing it arsenic. In
some States there a law against selling poison,
except the face of prescription from licensed
physician. If we cannot have such law in this
State we advise all those who ociate in drug stores
to play trick upon all who call for poison of any
kind. No one wants poison in great hurry for any
good purpose; and the best plan would be in all
to put up harmless medicine at first and label
poison No evil could result from the experiment,
and many valuable life might be saved.

S...r.l seest and the I" Evening STAR"
The weak charlatan who manages the political
tw.dde of the "Evenng STAR" and whose capacity
il only ft TO write miserable afterpieces for any
fourth rate player, has undertaken to write down
the merits and popularity Of General Scott a
didate for the next Presidency. With that igno-
rance fippancy, falsehood, and incompetency which
characterize the half made up animal, he endeavors
to show that the whole "opposition party Of this
state only part and parcel Of the two dozen
rupt creatures who left Tammany Hall with him in
1882, because General Jackson would not crafty
their rapacty and love Of Office by afording them
opportunity to run away with full hands, like
SwartwOut and Price.
This Hebrew Dalgetty will find, before long, that
the great Of the intelligent Opposition to Mr.
Van Buren more be sold and transferred by
him. than he could sell and transfer Grand Island to
the Holy People in lS24-'25.
There is a miserable coterie of corrupt rascals
congregatng around the "Star." and having made
their bargains for the succession they vai-y ina
gine that they prevent the people from discuss
ing the merits of the individuals before the country
as candidates for the next presidency. With the
usual cunning of the disbanded and corrupt politi
clans of Tammany, the editor Of the "Star" endea-
vors to make the issue the merits of General
Scott, an issue the merits of the New York
American, and the clique Of brokers of which that
paper is the organ. Now the fact is, that the sup
port which the American gives to General Scott, is
only like the support which the big green aies give
to fat beef in Fulton market-that is to say, Charles
King and nose long enough to smell how
the great body of the people is rapidly incning, and
like true great green fly, he buzzes always around
fat beef any where and sings songs in the neighbor
hood Of popular mutton every where.
We desire the charatan Of the Star to quit his
fooleries, or we shall circumcse him second time,
without benefit Of clergy. He knows the hands into
which he has fallen "mark, Jew"
