NEWSPAPER PUBLIsH1NG-ITs EXPENSES
AND Observation-Disclosures are few enter
prises that persons venture on with so
little business calculation, and with so
much hazard, as that of publishing a
daily or weekly paper. We are continu-
ally in receipt of letters in reference to
enterprises which have failed. Cincinnati,
with even the most limited proportional
sphere of operation, has been most fruit
full in failures of all classes of publica-
tons, and the summary made by W. T.
Coggshall year ago, was an enumera-
ton of continued failures. The recent
development of the Messrs. Wardens
discloses losses, after but few months
of trial, of not much short of $4,000 in
very limited effort. The New York
Times sank over 100000, we hear, even
before they began to think themselves

MISS DAVENPORT AS CAMILLE.

A large and brilliant audience attended
the Variete last evening to witness the
representation of the new play" Ca.
mile" All present seemed highly de
lighted with this truly well written piece.
Of Miss Davenport's personation of Ca
mile, the heroine of the play, we cannot
say too much in praise. She was every
thing that could be desired j.; judiciously
gay in the lively portions, painfully ex-
cellent in the pathetic. The contrast
between her love for armand and her
wish to do what her better feelings urge,
was finely depicted in the third act; while
in the fourth her acting in the ball scene
could not be surpassed. The grief at her
changed appearance when she consults
fer mirror, with last remain of her
former coquetry, the sudden blaze of life
Immediately preceding death, and this
death itself, were illusions of art that
seemed like natures self.
She was warmly applauded throughout.
Tonight E" Camille" is repeated.

A HUSBAND IN TRoUBLE.-A few DAVIS
since, a lawyer in this city was seated
in his office, busily employed in studying
out plea, when the door opened, and a
young, stout son of Erin entered, DOTTED
his hat, and said that he desired to take
an advice of "his honor" The LAWYER
babe him sit down, and inquired his bu.
siness. "Shure," he replied, II want a
divorce from my wife Biddy." The law
yer asked what Was the trouble, but Pat
seemed very 10th to tell. 'sDoes she not
treat you well, does she not take care of
your house, has she deserted you, or does
she like any one better than yourself g"
were inquiries made by the lawyer, who
endeavored for some time in vain to pump
out the reason of a desire for divorce.
At last, weary of the investigation, the
disciple of Coke informed his would-be
client that he could do nothing for him
without knowing all the facts in the case.
"Well, if l must, / must" replied the
husband; "ssure there's little darlint
lore better than Biddy.'' The lawyer
could hardly refrain from laughter suffi-
GENTLY to inform the Hibernian that the
law could not touch such case. as his,
and Pat left with countenance "more
of sorrow than Of anger. - T1aveler.

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The InteHigeneer publishes the recent
speech of Mr.. Stephens, of Georgia, &C.
companying it with an elaborate editorial
designed to controvert the allegations Of
Mr. S., accusing that journal of having
remained silent when the north, on vari-
Gus occasions, assailed the Missouri com.
promise. This powerful editorial, for
such it is indeed, is purely historical, re-
viewing and commenting upon portions
Of the records of Congress on years past.
The Union argues to show that John P.
Hale, and those acting with him in 1850,
pronounced both the Ordinance of 1887,
and the Missouri Compromise, dead. The
same journal comments on Lord Claren-
don's declaration concerning the new En-
tiente Cordiale between England and
France. The editor pronounces it start
ing, and calls on Congress promptly to
enact the resolutions of Mr.. Churchwell,
ION which we commented yesterday.
The Sentinel defends the Nebraska bill,
and discusses Lord Clarendon's Entente
Cord,ale declaration in Parliament.
