The New York herald., 1867-04-17

for Mr.. J0hns0n's rigmaroles about the constitu-
ton. They passed the great measure over tho
Mayors veto. Some Of our contemporaries
were wounded over the proposal to buy thu
HERALD for this purpose. II it will soften their
jealousies we will assure them that the choice
of the HERALD was probably made only be-
cause it covered more time and contained Q
better record Of events than those Of any
other journal.
