The Herald-wondsrfal Rumor..

A Cincinnati paper says " it is rumored that
Roscoe Conkling will sue the HERALD for libel,
claiming fifty thousand dollars damages for
publishing doggerel verses ridiculing his late
speech" Our Western contemporary might
have added that it is also rumored that Roscoe
Conkling is getting up pony purse of fifty
thousand dollars to present to the HERALD
writer who translated that famous speech into
the magnificent blank verse Of Paradise Lost.
The Cincinnati paper aforesaid notices the
fact as something remarkable, that the name of
James Gordon Bennett has suddenly dis
appeared from the HERALD. Our contempo-
raries of the West and the East, in their
solicitude about James Gordon Bennett,
remind us of little anecdote. Once upon q
time the famous Alcibiades, finding that the
Athenians had nothing for their street corner
gossip but himself, took splendid dog, known
by everybody, and, cutting of his tail, sent
him yelping through the city. When asked
why be did this, the facetious Greek replied
fhat it was to give the Athenians something
new to talk about.

1t next appears that this precious document
and others were lost with his pocketbook, by
McCluskey, on his way to Albany to look after
the late democratic convention, and that the
finder, thinking this Haskin letter and its
endorsements too good to be kept from the
world, has published them. The whole
budget may be q fabrication but IL so, it is
ono which calls for a positive refutation from
the parties concerned. There is nothing out
Of the way Of the accepted code Of the poll
ticians in the Haskin letter; but as the short
est way to get at the truth or falsity Of the
serious matters appended, we call upon Mr..
Haskn to say whether he did or did not write
the aforesaid letter given in bis name.

stances OF tho case. We can see no reason
which can justify his lordship's conclusion
unless 1t be this, that the worst phase which
this Roman question can assume is . phase
which shall command European attention and
interests phase which shall render a con-
gress necessary, and that the result of this
congress will be peace. 1t is all very well to
talk Of extensive war preparations, Of boundary
lines, of the ambition OF France, OF the neces-
sity which is laid upon Napoleon; but as we
refused to see any sufficient cause of Euro
pean war in the Luxembourg difficulty, so do
We now refuse to see any sufficient cause Of .
European war in this fresh " Question Ronaine."
We can see no reason to differ from Lord
Stanley. Already the unity Of the Italian
Peninsula may he regarded a. virtually accom-
plished, and fears OF European war may be
abandoned.

The races at Jerome Park and the summer
like weather OF the past week brought out the
bellies Of the metropolis in the brightest and
gayest Of fall toilettes- It is IN agreeable
feature Of the independence and good taste Of
obliged to modify and harmonic the extreme
peculiariies Of the fashions dictated from Paris.
The prevailing color in dresses and bonnets
among the fair patronesses of jerome Park
was blue, and interminable trails mingled with
the coquettish short dresses that came into
vogue last spring. The becoming little
Fanchon still graces fashionable heads and
nestles beside preposterous chignons. Orna-
ments of gold are much used, but do not
necessarily portend return to specie pay
ments on the part Of the wearers' husbands.
Satin and velvet trimmings are seen on many Of
the Grape and tulle hats, and there are already
indications of . return to crowns and curtains
in the matter of bonnets. Lace strings are
extremely fashionable, and streamers Of mar
row ribbon wave in the wake of every belle.
There is little novelty In cloaks to be seen out
doors yet, as the Indian summer still encour-
ages handsome short suits, with deliberately
ornamented overskirt and bodies of every pos
sible pattern. Jet and lace will be the prin-
cipal materials in trimmings this season. On
evening dresses bands and bows of velvet
form strange geometrical figures There is
rumor that ribbons of immense width will be
worn this season, not only as sashes, but also
in the hair, on dresses, and tied around the
upper part Of the sleeve. The Bismarck brown
is still preferred in toilettes, but it cannot hold
sway very long, for more unbecoming color
never emanated from the sanctum of Madame
Fashion. About the beginning Of next month
the winter styles ell will be ready for the in
spection and selection of the ladies, and Broad
way will again witness the excitement Of open
ing day. The tickle goddess that rules
modistes and their customers is already pre-
pairing strange surprises for her subjects in
Gotham.

The Sunday HcraId-Theatrical and Church
Matters.

The Sunday HernId-Theatrical and Church
Matters.
We have come to the conclusion that six
days in the week Is time enough to devote to
the theatres, gayeties and revelries Of this
wicked world, and that one day, as ordained,
should be devoted to religion and religious
matters. The Devil has decided advantage,
and monopolizes nearly the whole week. We
intend, as far as our individual efforts 90, to
limit this monopoly. We shall no longer pub
lish in the Sunday HERALD any notices or criti-
cisms Of the DEVILS doings at the theatres On
the contrary, our readers may purify and
prepare themselves for religious notices, with
reports and comments on doings at the churches.
We might be disposed to drop politics, even,
on the Sabbath if the public were ready
for that; but neither the preachers nor congre-
cations, to say nothing Of the public at large,
are prepared for such an innovation. In fact,
great many go to church to hear politics
preached, and the preachers have lately been
very much disposed to indulge their congre-
cations, rs well as their own fancies, with poll
teal discourses. No; the religious world would
not be satisfied were we to refuse to dish up
on Sunday the usual amount of political infor-
nation. As to the fashions it would never do
to exclude them from our columns on that
day. 1t is on that day, Of all others, the ladies
display their magnificent dresses, and discuss,
in and out Of church, the toilets Of their neigh
bors and the latest modes. Were we to exclude
our fashion news and comments we might
expect rebellion among the ladies against
the HERALD We are not going to do anything
so unwise. Besides, the fashions do not come
from the lower regions, like the Black Crook,
the Devils Auction and the plays generally.
Ii they do not exactly come from heaven, they
are necessary part Of our earthly and social
existence. The news Of exciting events, too,
must be given or we should lose the thread OF
the worlds history. The loss of one days
news, in this fast age, would leave an irrePar-
able blank that succeeding days could not
FILL But with all this, we are determined to
range ourselves with the churches, on Sunday,
in the war between them and the Devils places
Of amusement We think we are on the right
side still, it is doubtful which side will win
in the interesting rivalry now going on. As
an earnest Of our fixed purpose we commence
to-day to exclude theatrical reading, and to
give in its place interesting religious matter.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1867-10-20

election The great point for which hey
aimed was to prove to the world that they
endorsed the action of their dictatorial gov
eminent during the whole period Of the inter-
vention. By the election of Juarez they have
done this BY this election they have given
us, too, the strongest hopes that they have
inaugurated an era of peace and prosperity
We hear Of no outbreaks in any part Of the
country. Even the province of Tamaulipas,
which is so often plunged into trouble by the
Texas revolutionary adventures on the Rio
Grande, is now quiet
Mexico is to-day where she was at the time
Of the allied Intervention. Financially she
was then almost exhausted. Her foreign debt
has, however, been scarcely increased by three
millions of dollars. The exhaustive war which
she has maintained, solely from her own re-
sources, Is the best proof OF her immense in
ternal wealth. 1t Is the best proof too, of
what those resources might become were they
unrolled by peace.
The only difference between the Mexico OF
1862 and the Mexico of to-day Is that the
people have been greatly improved by the
foreign war they have been waging. At the
former period the civil struggle against
Church despotism had left many minor
which, in common cause against the French,
became united, thus eradicsting the contention
30 fruitful Of retolution. Notwithstanding all
this, it is true that the liberal government has
many difficulties before it. They arise princi-
pally from the lack Of education among the
masses. This education can never be well
commenced until the landed property is more
equally divided, for now the feudalism of the
country Is direct barrier to educational pro-
gress. Estates consisting OF from two to three
thousand square miles, like those Of the San
chez brothers, Of Coahuila, and Flores, Of
Durango, cannot flourish II the poor people
upon them are educated.
In the upsetting Of the Church power and the
French Intervention Mexico has undoubtedly
gained immensely in the march of civilization.
Their last election is q virtual endorsement Of
all the principles for which they have been
fighting for SO many years. These are en-
bodied in their constitution Of 1857 and their
claws of Reform" Of 1859. They are as fol-
lows The breaking down Of State rights !;
freedom of the press; separation Of Church
and State; religious freedom; army sub
ordinate to civil power; opening Of the
country to immigration. These principles
are the creed Of the present Mexican gov
eminent. They are the same which the
French Intervention aimed to overthrow. They
are the creed which the Mexican people by the
election Of Juarez have again endorsed. As
they are the same principles which we profess
we cannot blame Mexico for upholding them
even by the sword.
