We begin TO feel sorry Tor Mr.. DE Costa. lie
started out TO inaugurste So new era in
American History, under which conviction was
to be ' enforced, SO by s. producing autt0Tities. %
In the line Of bis duty a. an Apostle Of the new
era, he undertook TO explode the idea which has
been prevalent for eighty or ninety years. that
Ethan Allen was the hero Of Ticonderoga and
he had brief success. \ correspondent Of the
Boston Trareil,r, after reading B. F. DIS ''Who
took Tic1nderosa2'' gave il W that it oouldn I
have been Ethan Allen; and the Nation an
nounced that another traditional hero had been
proved a myth But Mr. De Costa WAS not
allowed to 20 of unmoiested with the historical
scalp Of the old Green Mountain Boy. Il vas
shown in due season. in the columns Of this pa
per, that M De Costa had brought forward no
' authorities " TO sustain his attempt TO transfer
the rightful fame Of Ethan Allen TO Benedict Ar
mold, ofall men and that he had jumped to his
conclusion solely on the strength Of an anony-
nous letter published at the time, proved TO be
false in divers particulars by contemporaneous
authority, and which, by the way, it Is quite
possible WAS written by Benedict Arnold him
self, who was as big liar as he ever vas traitor.
Mr. De Costa replied, in an article which, Whils
attempting in a weak and inconclusive way to
make a show Of sustaining his positions. was
really a confession Of defeat; for abandoning his
endeayor to show that It was not Ethan Allen
who " took Ticonderoga,' he nov averred that
all he had been trying to do was to prove that
Ethan Allen didn't take it alone, several other
men having hand in the business This was
known before in Vermont, If not in Stuyvesant
Place, and the reply might really have been al
lowed to 90 without rejoinder. Prof Benedict,
however, saw fit to point out few misquota-
tons On Mr.. De Costa part, and now comes a
Connecticut historian who shows up still more
clearly " B. +. D's' unfortunate practice Of
misquoting authorities and jumping to unauthor-
ized conclusions The Connecticut reply comes
to Us with the endorsement Of Ex-Governor Hi
land Hall, who Is among the most painstaking,
most careful and most accurate Of our historians,
and we publish II on another page. We now
move that Mr.. De Costa be allowed to subside,
trusting that be will in future be little more
careful to see that authorities 8" are on his
side, before he undertakes to unsettle well-es-
tablished history

The right Of petition is one of the dearest
privileges Of the American people. But like
every privilege, it is liable to abuse For in
stance, the other day Mr.. Ward presented peti-
tons Of citizens Of Hume, n Y, in favor Of re-
duction Of taxation and public expenditures.
And the obnoxious document was not rejected,
but actually received and referred to the Com
nittee Of Ways and Means. No doubt the Com
niteee Will al once devise means to rebuke the
inpertinencs Of Hume, Y. T., for interfering
with the duty Of the House 1t affords some 70
lief to our indignation TO know that bills 1nd
solutions for aid to various projects, to the
amount in all of several millions. were introduo-
cd the same day.
