AS your correspondent is not IN the Democratic,
nor the Republican, nor any other s'rng," he is
not aware that he is violating any rule OF secrecy
in dvulging this project. The duty of faithful
correspondent is to publish facts, and net to keep
secrets, especially it, as in this case the facts are
of the first Importance to the public. AS soon as
the enterprise reaches further stage of develop
ment, expect full bill of particulars. Meanwhile
the Republican brethren are at liberty to calculate
the chances OF this flank movement on the part Of
their opponents, proving success. They would
do well to see Grant about it.
The Episcopalians are having good laugh
(some of them on the wrong side Of their choeks)
over letter which Bishop Potter has sent to the
newspapers, addressed TO the clergy and laity.
II seems that the late Diocesan Convention voted
to let tho Bishop have private secretary his
salary TO be taken out of the Diocesan fnnd. Now,
it appears that the Diocesan fund is so burdened
with other expenses that the Bishop does not see
how it can bear any additional drafts upon 1t, and
SO he gives notice that he shall regard the act of
the convention nullity, adding that he hopes the
diocese will give itself anxiety about the mat
ter 81 shall try" says the Bishop, ''to take care
that tho business of the diocese is promptly at
tended to, and as for the labor and trouble, that
is my vocation"
The horror of the day is the awful death of nine
persons. from suffocation in one of the east-sde
tenement houses this morning. There is law
prescribing severe penalties for neglect to provide
proper fire escapes in such houses, but it is never
enforced. Possibly the deep feeling which this
sad calamity has excited may create public
opinion, which will no longer tolerate this cruel
and criminal tri1ing with the lives OF the poor.
The registry of persons who are anxious to
purchase tickets for Dickens readings commenced
at Steinway Hall this morning. The line was
very long one, and for good positions in it, two
dollars and six dollars were not unfrequently
offered.
