WILLIAM H. SEwARD's Niger PENNY ORGAN
AND THE IRISH CHAMBERMAIDs.-In speaking of
the advertising patronage which the New YORK
| HERALD receives from the Irish, German, and
American chambermaids generally, of this city,
the new penny trumpet Of w. H. Stewards party
makes the following allusion to that useful and esti-
mable class Of the community :-sDrawing q large
portion of its (the HERALDs) revenues from adver-
Using the wants and proposals of prostitution"
7 &c., sc.
We cannot find words strong enough to charac-
terize the disposition Of the man or the organ that
would apply such language to large class of the in
dustrious female population of this city, who are as
virtuous and as correct in their moral and social
department as any other class of society," however
elevated it may be above them in point of wealth
and education, fashion and fnery. For some time
past the NEW YORK HERALD has been made the
principal receptacle Of all those advertisements of
respectable females in want of places and respecta
bic families in want of suitable s'help." On some
occasions these advertisements have swelled to four
or five columns of space, in the smallest and
closest type The accumulation Of this description
OF advertisements has been produced by the large
and continually increasing circulation of the He
RAID among the highest, most respectable, and best
families of New York and the surrounding country
Chambermaids, housemaids, cooks washerwomen, |
nurses, and seamstrcsses who want good situations
have found by experience or from their that
the best method of obtaining their desires was by
advertising in this journal; and families of the most
respectable standing who want good servants, have
found 1t to their interest to advertise in the Same
channel Of universal intelligence. Both classes find
it to their advantage to avoid the nero political
hacks OF the day, possessing only ephcmeral exs-
tcnce, and established for the purpose of advancing
the dogmas Of dangerous demagogues and fanatics,
who inculcatc mischief under the plea of philan-
thropy to the African race.
These facts in the history and character of the
advertising patronage we enjoy furnish the only
plausible pretext for the miserable creatures with
out one vital spark Of manliness in their compost
lion, who conduct the niger penny organ of W II.
Seward, called the Times, to assail the character
Of these respectable females, by calling them odious
and infamous names, and coupling them with such
characters as appear only the stage of this other
countries. If these miserable editors and miserable
politicians had only half the honesty half the vir-
uc, half the uprghtness and half the purity, which
dorn the lives of the Irish and other chambormaids
fNew York, they and their niger newspapers would ,
ccupy Cher position in the moral and social !,
Gale, and attain loer point of elevation in tho \
stimaton Of the community, than they have ever u
nerited, or ever will be able to reach a
