EditOrs # tie R'HlJjd H5ald i mo-
tice in your daily issue Of Saturday last
three articles upon the Congressional
question, from which | am led to infer
that your columns are open to canvass the
claims of all person. who are named in
connection with the nomination for Rep
resentative in Congress from this district.
Your correspondent "D." presents the
claims of Col. Neazey as the military can
didate for the campaign. and urges with
much force the tancicd superiority and
loyalty Of the heroes of the late war.
Hon. 5. NJ. Dorr speaks for himself, and
the claims of the present incumbent are
set forth i'll the editorial columns, and |
desire a briei space to add a few suggcs-
tons relative to one of the gentlemen
named.
While have no objection, 10 make Il
Mr. Woodbridge's course--for he has rep.
resented his constituents ably and Dc.
serves well-yet, if new candidate is to
selected, and TO come from Rutland coun.
ty, have my views Of the selection to be
made. Hon. s. NJ. Dorr came to this
county from the State Of New York some
some ten or twelve years since, favorablv
recommended as a gentleman of the high.
est character, and engaged at once in de-
veloping the material resources of lou,
county, at the same time, having cast hi,
fortunes among our people, he actively
identified himself with the business, 50
cial and public interests of our commu
nifty, giving evidence that he was gen
tleman of large experience, ripe Judgment
and thoroughly prepared to take part
in all that pertained to the Advancement
OF the town, county and State Of hi,
adopted home. His public record is be.
fore the people, and as YOU very Justly
remark in your article, "in all public
trusts which have been confded to him
he has faithfully, honorably and with
ability cared for them. When member
VI tHt Nbuitii vi ttllHhTN ne presented
many suggestions that were valuable. and
were engrafted in our Constitution, which
was almost the. first progress that had been
made in changing from the theories and
practices of ancient times, that were in
correspondence with the spirit Of the age
These changes, however, did not alter The
spirit or the tenor Of the Constitution
given ms by the Aliens Warmers and Chip
mans, but gave us broader view Of our
relations, and brought us in harmony
with the charters Of our sister States
This indicated to me at the time that Mr.
Dorr evinced peculiar adaptation to the
public service, accompanied with good
Judgment and comprehensive views As
Representative from Rutland in the
Legislature, and as Senator. he has given
full evidence of his ability to grapple
with great questions as they are presented,
and to watch and guard every interest of
his fellow-citizens. The journals Of the

HDIToas IN FRANCE.

The fiippant manner in, which reference
is made to the Frcneh@pfess-its want of
dignity, shallowness, etc. will find it's anti
dote in the following remarks of an -intelli-
gent writer. The prev alent opinion would
seem to be that the Anglo-saxon race alone
are equal to the task of jourhalism-the
highest efforts of Frenchman never
reaching beyond witty. feuilleton. 1t
were to be wished that some of their traits
were more generally followed among us.
The writer alluded to Gays:
Much as French .uorals are stigmatized, it can
not bo denied that tho columns of the Frorcl,
papers aitoays entirely free from personal
sl.ndeT, from all indecent details, from yiIulent
abuse, often even the great law paperitself, the
Journal des I'ibunAMr, in giving an account
of great trial, will give only tho initials OF
the Notwithstanding it unnecessary and cruel
toward many innocent persons that the real
name should pass the threshold of the courts
All journalism in France reg ures men of educa-
ton. The~French language is . most oompii-
Gated one, being difficult even for Frenchma an
to[write correctly, so thst not all with fan
~cied vocation can jump from setting type to
writing an article. Thon, though the circuls-
ton of newspapers in Franco cannot compare
with that of newspapers in tho United States
they are read by larger portion of educated
and informed peofsle-thereforo the editor must
be well informed, educated and we'll read; there
FORE must he possess superior knowledge to the
public who re1d him, therefore, must he know
the theesy of art well, if not better than the
artists ne is called upon to criticise.
That the editors and sub-editors arc thus
qualified for their position, is shown in the res
pect and deference paid to them by all classes
