4. EWSPAPER BOUNCE. ;

An evening contemporary seems to suppose
that it was more especially aimed at in an ar
ticle in this paper under the above heading
In this it Is mistaken, as we We're illustrating
style of exaggeraton prevalent amongst
newspapers. of unouly magnifying their cir
culation, and which had been carried to such
lengths as TO cause all such statements to be
received by the public as so much bunkum
We certainly thought our 7eighbor as deep in
the mire rs the rest Of them, especially when
it claimed to have circulation placing
il ssahead OF any journal in this city -
With It's real knowledge OF the circulation, re-
spectively, Of the city journals it must have
certainly known that the utmost circulation it
claims for itself, set forth in Its own figures
is not within many thousands of the circu,a.
ton OF the Star. 1t could have no sgsod and
sufficient evidence on which to ground the
belief that il was s'ahead" O., or even approx
imately near our circulation: conseq uen.Iy its
allegations must legitimately come under the
head OF ssbonnce.'
We wish our neighbors, or all sides, all the
prosperity possible, and shall listen to their
stories OF poItly subscription books with all
the compla cency imaginable until they begin
to talk about the "largest circu lation, then
they tread 1ee'le too heavily on the toes of the
STAR, and we shall have TO rake the young
stsrs down peg
As illustrating the manner in which white
paper is being linked over and distributed pro
bono pnbiico just now in this city, the follow
Ing from this Mornings Chronicle is apropos:
"There is some controversy among our
evening co EN- peraries as to their circulation
The other evening we found several hundred
copies OF an evening paper in our editorial
rooms. We do not know what award" thew

KILLING THE FATTED CALF.


That portion of the Southern press which
obstinafely refuses TO profit by the lessons o.
experience, and advises inaction on the part
of the whites in reference to reconstruction
and we are sorry 10 say that 1T comprises
large majority of the newspapers published
in that section-is dolefully 1amentiug the fac.
that Gen. LonKstreet and other "repsntant
rebels are so warmly welcomed into the Re-
publican ranks. as being worthy Of taking
part in the reconstruction OF the country"
To quote one of the papers referred to: ssJust
let srebeF or q TRAITOR or a 'secesh' show
the least symptom Of uniting with the rad-
Gals. or prociivity towards utilization with
them, and he is Immediately received into
favor. and his sins are forgiven him"
Well, why not! Can any Southern man
give better evidence OF his return to
reason, and his fitness for taking part in the
government Of the country. than by discarding
his former political heresies, and announcing
his adhesion in future to the cause OF modern
progressl Is il to be expected that the party
which supports that cause will lock with
loving eyes upon those who oppose public
schools, political and industrial progress, and
everything that tends to elevate the masses
If the poor white people in the South can only
be brought to understand the true Issue he
tween the two parties, and its bearing upon
their future condition, those who oppose Re
publlcanism will soon find themselves in a
small minority. In the single matter of popular
education do the Iaboripg classes in Virginia
ike the position of the Conservative leaders OF
opinion IN their State, where such a respec,a
bic journal as the Alexandria Gazette can find
such a inject of congratulation as is contained
in the following paragraph, clipped from its

NEW ORLEANS. July 24.-Yesterday morn
