| NEWSPAPER CHANGEs.-1AS usual the revolution II
the newspaper press goes on, and all sorts of change.
are taking place, particularly amongst the ephemera
weekles and dailles. We understand that in day
or two, the Morning Neios and Evening Posf-the
one paper OF yesterday, and the other one of the
beginning of the century,-but both in rather decr
pld state from bad management and homeopathic
treatment, are going to beunied 10 if they can
not stand stronger their legs than they could sepa
ratey. Another change in the weekly press has al
so taken place. The New World hiss been absorbed
and swallowed up by an obscure paper called the
Emporium, which has been endeavoring to make a
little noise in the world, but cannot succeed
These changes are significant, in variety of
aspects. The rumored change of the Post and
Ne'cs indicates truly great change-a revolution,
you may say, in the minds of men relative to
party prints and party demigods. Mere political
prints such as these, not newspapers. They are
merely prosy, tiresome political pamphlets, published
daily. That is their true character. During an ex-
citing election, by the contributions of particular
clique of office beggars such journals may exist and
flourish for short time but the moment that the ex-
citement is over, and they have to depend on the
original elements of journalism, then the failure and
decline and ABSORPTION take place. What nfoma-
ton does the Ne,cs, or the Post, or the Plebeian,
or any other party print, give its readers1 Such a
paper the Herald gives every information to those
attached to political parties with infinitely greater
accuracy and fulness than any Of the party papers.
OF course, when the political excitement Of any par
ticuar period is over, the regular newspapers sue
coed better than ever; whilst the mere daily political
pamphlets falsely called newspapers, sink to the
ground, or ruin those who attempt to support them
Their only means of existence are derived from pos
session of office, and the spoils, and the constant
clamor for more subscriptions and contributions
With respect to the demise of the Ne,c World,
and its absorption by another paper that merely ind-
Gates the falling off of BOTH The Neu World has
only had an ephemeral existence 1t never had any
of the real elements of strength and prosperity and
the Emporium which now swallowsit up, is, we be-
lieve, the most milk and water, weak, sckly, and
melancholy concern of the kind that ever struggled
for existence. The union Of the two only indicates
the extreme debility of both.
PICTURE OF vENus.-A large number of persons
of taste, call in from day to day to see the picture of
Venus now on exhibition at No. 449 Broadway 1t
is said to be by Titan, but few spectators trouble
themselves with the inquiry of the authenticity of the
work; they find it pleasing charming gaze at, aud
full. The posture Of the figure is not favorable to
show the grace of its proportions, and SO curva-
ture in the left arm, and degree of diminutiveness
in the neck compared with the rest, seem not quite
perfect. Yet, the outline and colorng Of the skin,
"a point hard manage welD are here cleverly rep
resented. The drapery shows the artists skill most:
It Is natural In every good picture and statute of
the. Venusl De Medics, the full rotundty Of the
waist, proves how falacous and absurd is the admit
ration of slender waists, now prevalent. The pic
ure we are speaking of, attends scrupuousy in this
particular to the true model 1t is web worth seeing,
and will excite more than twenty-five cents worth Of
agreeable emotions, no matter who the author may
be
