EDITORIAL BREViTEES.
*x* 1t is really too bad that New York
insists upon having the very life blood of Phila-
delphia before she will be satisfied that her
claims to supremacy as the metropolitan city of
the western world will remain undisputed. Eff
forts of every kind-even to the resort of mean
a d dirty tricks have been Matched by the mer-
chants of Quakerdom, but with no beneficial re-
suit, to draw the western trade to their deserted
stores; and now, b cause the imperative wants
Of commerce and exchange require the removal
Of the Mint from Philadelphia to New York, she
sets up a moan and howl that would rejoice the
heert of an anchorte The last sad plant of
our pennsylvania friends may be read IN The FOL
lowing extract from the Philadelphia Bulletin
of Friday; g Our readers will bear in mind that
a mass meeting on the subject of removing the
United States Mint to New York is to be held
on Monday evening, at the Musical Fund Hall
W. hope that there will be an outpouring of all
the true friends of Philadelphia on Monday eve
niny, SO that demonstration may be made that
will have its influence at Washington To
which a contemporary responds by doing out
the following charitable pittance =" Our ami :
bic neighbors appear to be getting alarmed.
Wbat's the matter 1t is but few days since,
we remember, that at least two of the journa S
there told us that there was no more likelihood
of ongress removing the Mint to this city than
there was of removing it to the moon. If that's
the case, where is the necessity for a public
meeting to protest %

they say of her:-" There is one rcdeeming, pu
ita Rosas, a noble. graceful, accomplished, splen

ing influence over the savage ferocity of the faith
or. If good act be done by the Government
her hand and her heart is there if life is spa
red, it is only by her interposition and, if rumo
be true, she has exposed herself to blows, an
even death, to save others. The admiration
the homage, tho universal Difference paid hel
even by the bitterest enemies of the father, woul
be enough to stamp her as no common woman
She receives the Legislative bodies, foreign mir
listers, and almost, if not entirely, the whole d
plomacy goes through her hand. She has he
clerks and her secretary, and all the foreig
agents negotiate with her. The co-ordinai
branches, if they, mere ciphers, can be SO calle'
