u We observe, by one of the Sunday pa
pers, that the musical critic Of The AlbiOn aud
The Sunday Dispatch, has been excluded from
Niblo's Theatre, by the present management,
to which justice requires that we should say
that Mr. NiblO is not party. The ground of
this exclusion is simply, that the writer in
question, is not agreeable to the manager,
having written what the latter holds to be IN
fair criticisms upon the performances of the es-
Enlistment. Accordingly he is not allowed to
purchase a ticket, or to enter with one pur-
chased by another.
How far this course is justified by the law
the manager will soon learn. as it is under
stood that suit has been commenced against
him. Ifprevious decisions in similar cases are
a precedent, he will find his conduct to be both
unlawful and Improbable. But the press has
protest Of its own to put in against such die
tatiOn. IL amounts to claim TO control its
criticisms, which might be provoking if it were
not ridiculous The motives Of the critic have
nothing to do with the question. If he writes
to crafty private hostility toward an artist or
manager, and unjusuy condemns what is really
good, so much the worse for him and his jour
nal. The artist and the manager have one
proper way of replying to dishonest structures,
namely: by proving them to be groundless be-
fore the public, whose verdict in such a case is
sure to be just. But to attempt any retalia-
ton like that now practised at Nblos, is fool
isbly to change the point at issue, and to enlist
the public and the entire press on the side of
even the worst critic. 1t is an attempt to
abridge the right of free discussion, which can.
not be submitted to. Nothing can be more
i'll judged and we trust, for the sake of
Madame SOntag that her manager will at once
retreat from ground so untenable, where moth
ing awaits him but discontinue and loss

CRIME OF THE MADnIs-The Freemaa's
Journal repels with show Of indignation, the
charge that the Madiais were convicted and
sentenced for merely reading their Bibles
So lar, we presume the Journal is right. But
when it goes on to inculpate the Madas by
quoting from The speeeh Of their prosecutor
instead OF the verdict of the jury, We think il
does them gross and crying injustice. The
dispute dOes not turn on the OiTenses of which
they were charged, but on those whereof they
were eOHricted.
So far as We are aware, there has been but
one synopsis Of the Madiais trial published
among us-that of the Bueno Norello. Prot
estant paperpublished in Turin. As it seemed
rather one sided We have not seen fit to copy
it. But will the Journal favor US with Cath.

BRIees-HuBBAKD.-T recent unfortunate
collision between our late p. NJ. General Hub
bard and Hon. Geo. Briggs of this City, was
unquestionably the result Of msapprehension.
Mr. Briggs inferred mot wholly without res-
SOM that the Postmaster's abrupt sid uncere-
monious refusal to receive the memorials pre-
sented by him respecting the Mail Steam Tug
was impelled By, or evinced personal disrespect
which Mr.. Hubbard emphatically disclaims.
On their accidental meeting afterward at the
Capitol, Mr. Briggs took Mr. Hubbard's offered
hand, nOtknowing whose it was, which courtesy
he wished to withdraw directly after when Mr..
Hubbard observed (as Mr.. Briggs has testi6ed)
"JustasyOu please-yOuare beneath my notices"
and, being asked to repeat the remark, raised
it to" You are beneath my contempt" Here
upon Mr.. Briggs dealt Mr.. Fl. blow, which he
svears TO have been a very light, one neither
calculated nor intended to infict any physical
iDjury-which blow he repeated. Mr.. Hubbard
nobly refused TO return it or otherwise resent
it except by prosecution for the assault, and
the action is now pending. A few words of
explanation by some judicious friend, after the
first difference at the Post. Office, would
have prevented this most unhappy personal
collision.

CRY GOvERySESr.-The principal item Of
interest in the Board Of Aldermen last night
was note from Aid. Smith, asking to be ex-

that the Grand Jury acted in obedience to
public clamor, &c. The mOdesty Of such an
assertion is not particularly apparent. Aid.
Bard, also under indictment, was not present.
