RECORDER COURT.-It was an I'M
usually busy day with the Recorder
yesterday. The Grand High Tycoon
had his hands full for while. First
came Aft. Frage, free man of color,
who, to the intense disgust of the po-
lice, had committed the enormous
crime of sleeping on the sidewalk.
To satisfy the police, and upon the
principle that the Frenohman wanted
to be paid for heating the poker, the
Recorder recommended that Alfred
she'll out four dollars to pay for
polite attentions, which the colored
individual appeared glad enough to
do, although he had not been con
vieted of a crime that subjected him
to a fine.
Adam Bragler, an old sore
head, who has much polite attention
shown him on the part of the police
officers, appeared on a 81 drunk, and
was costed 81 Is. Adam being in
funds liquidated the claim ike a little
man, and went on his way rejoicing
to get drunk again as soon as an oc-
Casion offered itself. which will be
the remembrancer Of the late Demo
cratic victory.
Samuel Greeley-not supposed to
be a relation Of Horace--but more
impudent scamp. who had the audae-
ity to insult the dignity of the law, by
getting drunk on the wharf in the
daytime, was fined 81, cost 81 IS, and
failing to properly appreciate the
dignity of the Court" before whom he
was being tried, he was fined an adj
ditional s.. Not having the spoons"
Samuel was sent to the lookup In
dubitable evidence that be was a.
=" bad egg" was produced in the fact
that he had on his person lot of
locks and some keys Of very mys-
terious character, which led to the
reasonable conclusion that Samuel
was in the habit of remaining out of
nights. for purposes not exactly in
consonance with the safety of hen
roosts, back kitchen property, &c.

a mirage I'm western Kew YorK

a correspondent of the Rochester
Union, writing from Batavia, New
York, June 3, says:
On Monday last, while walking in
the suburbs OF the village, I was sur
prised to see, stretching away to the
northeast, and apparently on a level
with an adjoining meadow, lake. the
fluctuations of whose waves were
plainly visible, and on which two
steamboats, and two sailing vessels
were to be seen moving along. Far
away in the distance was the Canadian
shore. The pale blue-green tint of
water WAS perfectly reproduced. The
delusion was heightened by the rising
ground in the meadow forming a bank
from which the lake appeared to roll.
1t was almost impossible to reject the
temptation of crossing the fence and
gathering the shells and watching the
breakers which It seemed must be mt
the foot of those little hills. I watched
the mirage for nearly and hour, but re-
turned before the disappearance of it.
This mirage far exceeded the fine one
OF Lake Erie seen some weeks since at
sunset, and which attracted universal

THE organs of Mr.. johnson announce
that Mr.. Eyarts is to be nominated
Attorney General, and Mr.. Groesbecl
Secretary of the Treasury. That will

appreciated as at the Court of ST.

argument with Mr.. Disraell-say ON

the British lion would soon be reduced

PRESIDENT JOHNSON appears to have
learned with some surprise that the
Democrats do not put full confidence
in him. Naturally enough he thinks
II hard that after all he has done and
suffered, there should be any question
of his fidelity. The Washington cor
respondent OF the Louisville Democrat
tells us that in conversation with au
Indiana politician lately. the latter told
him plainly the Democrats were afraid
OF him, aud in reply TO the question
what psrticula: ground oil complaint
there might be, the nomination of
General SchodeId was mentioned, aud
the fear was expressed that he was not
in sympathy with the Democratic party.
Mr.. johnson protested that he was,
and became more explicit in answering
the question whether he intended to
support the New York nominee:
81 can't do anything else. I've no.
where else TO go. II had could not
do otherwise. The Democrats are too
suspicious of me. They are too exact
ing. They don't do me justice. II
they'll go on and do right they may
always be easy about Andy Johnson"
Mr.. Johuson's position is certainly a
hard one, but is not uncommon among
those who follow such n course as he
has pursued.

We have long acted on the pre-
sumption that newspaper ethics are
generally understood. Among those
who do understand them, newspaper
is not held Rs endorsing or approving
anything copied from another journal,
simply by the act OF copying. If this
were not so, the field OF newspaper en-
terprise would be limited, indeed.
Nearly everything OF interest would
have to be excluded or one-half OF eve.

the other half. In copying the commu-
nicatiou referred to, we gave credit to
the journal from which 1t was taken,
not having noticed anything offensive
in it, and knowing nothing whatever
ofits authorship. We understand it to
be the business of newspaper to give
its readers the news. We copied this
article, just ms we copy hundreds OF
others, because we conceived it would
be interesting to our readers. Doubt

pondent, like many others, would have
bought copy OF the Commercial in or

had no thought, much less intent, OF
rejecting on any gentleman named or
remotely referred to therein. We say
this because II Is true, not as an apollo,
gy for the publication. These gentle
men and their critic alike stand before
the public on their own merits; and
we cannot, with any sort OF fairness,
be made to stand in the critics shoes
because we copied his criticism.
While We make this emphatic dis.
claimer, the Hdmonition against future
-onences which our correspondent ad-
ministers makes it proper for us to add,
that while we shall constantly euGeay-

the Interests of our friends. and t-v n
serve them in every legitimate wny in
our power, we must, as public ioprDaI

OUR Washington correspondent tells
us that Mr.. Wiley made very fine
speech in the Senate last Tuesday, on
topics connected with reconstruction.
We had seen the speech fnvornbly re-
ierred IN and had been watching the
GioJc for it, but ind that it did not np-
pear iii the regular course OF printed
debate, having been withheld for revis-
ion. MIR. Wiley is one of the few Senn-
tors who seldom consume the time of
The Senate, but when he does speak
there is no member OF that body who
commands more respectful attention.
Nor is there one vino can tnlk mere en-.
gnglngly and eioqueutly than our own
Senator when he warns up to the
work. When his remarks of last Tues
day come TO hand, If they do not ex.
coed our limited space, we phHil give
them To our readers.
MIR. Wiley cannot fail to feel com
plimentcd 10y the action of the Legisla-
turc yesterday; for condemnation of
Mr.. Van Wrinkles course is commen.
dution of his own.

of peculiar merit from the pen of Mr..

iD-rapt, giving 1t quite different
meaning. On Friday, the following
note from Mr.. Williamson appeared in

to the irresponsible editor" "a it was to
the public. 1t was as follows:
