We cannot agree to rescue the Tribune
from impending dissolution by raising the price
OF newspapers 10 three cents The arguments
used by Mr.. McElrath, on behalf OF Mr.. Greeley
and himself were very well put. 1t is beyond
doubt that such q paper as the HERALD would
be cheap Ut three cents, in proportion TO other
commodities; but we can live by selling it at
two, and we will not tax the public an addi
tional cent. The request made to US by Messrs.
Greeley and McElrath, through their agent, was
very politely worded. It grieves Us to be COM
PEELED to reply in the negative. We must do
50, however, and in addition to the pain it gives
rs to dsoblige our ne ghbors we must bear pa
tiently sl the i'll temper which their disappoint-
ment proyokes. In like manner, we must make
our mind up to gtand whatever asperity the
misfortunes Of the Times may give to its tone
About year ago ii boasted Of q circulation Of
twenty-five thousand ii now claims twenty
three. So rapid Decline at the outset Of its
career, can hardly fail to create dismay in the
minds of its proprietors; aud it is not a matter
Of surprise that they should evince particular
soreness on the subject. In point of fact both
the TriJuae and Times have, by their own
confession, reached very critical point in
their career If the price of papers cannot be
increased, something must be done to break
down the HERALD, or both will be driven to
choose between miserable death and an exist
ence protracted ct the expense of their owners.
In consideration Of these peculiar circum-
stances we are disposed to view the abuse of
orr contemporaries with more composure than
we might otherwise have felt. Something must
be forgiven to the pangs of disappointment and
the acute misery OF declining fortune. Hence,
when the Tribune tells us that it rejoices over
the verdict in the Fry case, we at once make
| allowance for tho satisfaction which it must
have derived from witnessing our injury, and
we find nothing remaining to be ascribed to an
honest sympathy with the motives Of the jury.
| According to its own statement, the Tribune
| las suffered more from libel suits than any
other journal in the city--a fact by no means
surprising to those who have noticed its usual
violence oflanguage and brutality oftone Many
libel suits have been brought against rs but
until the Fry case, we have never been com
| PEELED to pay anything over nominal damages.

THE Law OF LIBEL AND THE ITALIAN OPERA.
For The last few days, the two journals in this
city which gloated over the verdict Of $4,000
against the HERALD in the Fry case have dis
tipguishcd themselves by an onslaught upon
an opera singer well and favorably known to
the American public. The facts are these: Mr..
Maretzek as our readers are aware, has
been engaged, during the fall aud winter. in an
italian Opera campaign at Niblo's One Of his
principal artists was Salvi, the tenor. Ma
retzek according to the Times, has not been
very successful, and he was very anxious
therefore, to secure full house for his benefit
on Monday evening last Among the artists
announced, and the second on the list was
Salyi, who, it was stated, was about to leave
for Havana and Mexico. The announcement of
an immediate departure from the United States
stirred up the creditors Of Salvi like nest Of
hornets. and they made a tremendous rush upon
him. He wrote letter to Maretzeh. reproach-
ing him with what he had done, and requiring
him to send him at least $500 before oae o'clock
on Monday, to meet the demands Of the greedy
creditors; otherwise he would go into the coun
try. and would not allow himself to be seen by
any living person. The following is q list of
the bills sent to him and enclosed to Maret-

From the foregoing Tin which Salvi is ridi-
culed for spelling "wick" for "wig'O it
would seem that he owed in all the sum
Of 1920 70, and he only made the very
moderate and reasonable request OF % per
cent, or less the amount which would be due
for his services on the night Of Maretzek's bene-
it. In order to stave off the pressure of hisduns
or believing that bird in the hand is worth
two in the bush he asked for the money
few hours in advance. Maretzek would not
come down with the dust, but postponed the
opera, and issued card in one of the papers,
giving his version of the facts. In addition to
this, private letter from Salvi to Maretzek
was yesterday published in the same paper, and
very severe reflections were INDUCED in by the
editor, in regard to the conduct Of Salvi and as
to his professional capability as an operate
singer.
Ii the articles for which the HERALD was sued
in the case Of Fry were libellous, this and the
other articles in the Tunes and Tribune are
ten times more so. IF the sum of $4,000 is the
cost of a criticism on the Fry Opera, at least
$4,000 ought to be exacted for an exposure o.
the Moretzck management The only difference
between the two cases is, that Maretzek Is a

good manager, and Fry, to say the least, was
very indifferent one; and this is an argument
in favor of heavier damages for both Maretzek
and Sslvi. Again. q professional artist who
depends on his reputation for living
has greater cause Of action, and Is
much more injured, than manager would
be, by an assault in the newspapers.
We may therefore expect. according to the new
code of procedure recently established, that the
Tribune ana Times viii have to pay the piper
very handsomely for the music to which they
have danced at the expense OF Salvi And lift
should turn out that Maretzek fail-as the
Times says he is likely to do--thcn that mana
ger will have far better cause Of action against
our little contemporary than Fry had against
the HERALD What is sauce for the goose is
sauce for the gander. We may therefore expect
two or three libel suits to be instituted imme-
diately, growing out of the comments ON the
Maretzek regime. The two journals in which
the libels appeared cannot complain Of the ap-
plication to themselves Of the same rule which
they so strenuously advocated for others.
Maretzek and Salvi may thus make good
season of it, after all.

The FREE SON SEWARD ORGANS AND Mr.
EvERErT-It has been evident, for some time
past, that the free soil Seward organs do not
like Mr.. Everett. He stands in the way of
their man and their programme. Hence the
late attack Of the Tribune, accusing Mr.. Eve
rett Of "meanness" in using his influence In the
Senate to the exclusion Of his free soil col
league, Mr.. Sumner, from the standing commit
tees of the body. The charge is direct, and is
adopted from. the abolition organ at Washing
ton, the National Era. Very likely it is an
abolition fabrication; but true or false, it shows
that Mr.. Everett is in the way of W. ii. Seward,
and must be made to step aside. II lie another
straw indicating the opposing currents for the
Presidency in 1856.
