Mayor Woods Recent Message.
bpiuion of the NJ York Press.

The Herald cannot support Femapdo
this time. 1t says: a
With regard to the aggressions" of
the legislature, the increased taxation,
&c, there is a great deal of truth in
what the mayor says. But would the
common counsel govern US any better
than the Legislature (! Is Brady to be
preferred to Sim. Draper, or Boole
over Thurlow Weed Is it at ali pro
bable that our taxes would be dollar
less with the city entirely in the hands
of the strikers, shouderhitters, and
governing classes" 9fthe same stripe!
No; it will better to suffer the ills we
have than te Ay to others which we all
on calm reflection, will know to be very
much worse.
The Journal of Commerce says:
We have no idea of initiating the
hasty action of South Carolina. by sep
aratiug ourselves summarily from our
oppresSors, bat rather let our policy be
to stick by until we conquer them, aud
not only to teach them TO let us alone.
