FLING AT THE PRESS.
Rev. DR.. O. b. rockingham on SeR-
sati0n Editors.

lFrom the New York Times OF Monday ]
Lev. o. b. rockingham preached
yesterday morning on The foes Of
Society," These he divided into two
groups, hot blooded and cold blooded,
placing Sho passionate people, law
breakers and rOWdies among the first
mentioned, and the upper class Phar-
isees, leaders Of society, self-righteous
people, among the latter class. AS
one Of the subdivisions of his dis
course he treated of the Press.
Among the most huFtful foes of
society, he thought, were editors who
publish sensations. in order that their
papers may be salable. They deemit
their first duty as journalists to make
their journals interesting" as the
phrase is, and for this purpose they
employ inteTvieWers and reporters,
who put their ears to the keyholes of
private houses, who endeavor to drag
out the secret thoughts of citizens,
who poster and annoy prominent
individuals in the community, IN order
to ascertain everything concerning
their actions as well as their private
sentiments, aud who do their utmost
to bring into the blazer of MONDAY
the privacies of domestic life. in order
that these may be made the subjects
of common talk in the community,
and thus draw attention to the sheets
owned by these INSCRIPTIONS editors.
They dress up the commonest oc-
eurrenees of life so as to make them
appear like gigantic evils, so that
their journals may get the credit of
being enterprlsiDg and lively. Some
times these editors are atheists en-
deaVOring to stir up the Catholic ele-
ment to the commission of wrong
upon Protestants, in order that re-
ligion may suffer, aud Uice Uersa; at
other times they are Catholics or
Protestants trying to create such
sentiment In community as would
roast a clergyman in order 10 clear an
assassin. They dive down into the
very depths OF mems secret commun-
ings, and seem to consider the most
private cherished sentiments as the
common property of the public. The
Press might be an immense power for
good, If rightly conducted; but the
class of editors who deal in sensation
undermine the institution, and make
it vast power for evil, taking special
occasion, If it serves their purpose, to
falsify the words and actions of men
and women who may be more promi-
nent than others, so that the
sensation thereby created may prove
to be peeuniary profitable to them
selves. In many cases where this
disposition to sensationalize is not so
apparent, the Press is weak, because
of its untaithfulness to high and en-
nobling causes; lacking the courage
to breast popular clamor and cutlery,
though they know, or have good
reason to believe that the clamor is
based on no true and proper founda-
tiea. The Press should abandon
these systems of false actions and
non action; give up its disposition TO
create sensations, if it would rightly
serve community. 1t should respect
character, and have greater regart for
truth in which case it would become
the sterling friend and not foe of
society.

The Pal Mall Gazette has the
following bright paragraph on con-
versation openings, which is applica-
Bile to or longitude as to that of
London:
Mr.. f. w. Longman's ingenious
little book on "Uhess Openings
suggests to US that a companion trea-
tise on Conversation Openings ="
would be an acceptable work at the
commencement of the London season.
We have polite letter writers by the
score, essays on etiquette by ladies Of
quality, and hints on manners by
gentlemen of title, but we have no
work by which novice can learn
how to get over that awkward pause
which often follows the introduction
of one difident strange to another.
IN the language Of chess we have
what may be termed the English
or weather gambit," but when that
fails, and a conversational check IS
given, the sufferer has no resource
but to erumtle his bread if he be at
a dinner table. or to dance with in
creased energy if he be in a ball
room. Two or three checks In sue

destroy the nerve Of difident dinner
out, and stalemate. 4. e. common
sense of boredom, is the usual result.
We think it was Theodore Hook who
ordered his butler to break plate
whenever the conversation at table
tagged; but this sort Of game would
be pronounced by cur authors as
" brilliant but hazardous" We want
soEIe hints for intermediate openings
by which to avoid the abrUptness of
the above play and the ordinary
knights gambit," which frequenters
of city feasts will agree with Mr..
Longman in considering to be tame
and embarrassing, and solely recon-
mended by its safety"

EVERY one may not have dug out,
from the large mass of other matter,
Secretary Boutwell's ideas upon Re-
sumption of Specie payment. This
is the paragraph in which he treats
of what is necessary to return to and
maintain a specie basis:
A necessary condition for the re-
sumption of specie payment was the
development of the industry of the
nation, both South and North, and
the consequent accumulation of the
movable products Of industry TO such
an extent that our exports Of these
products should be equal substan-
TALLY to our imports. So long as it is
necessary to pay for merchandise
imported by the transfer of Govern
ment bonds Or other evidences of
Indebtedness to other countries, so
long it will be .mpraeticable to re-
sumo and maintain specie payment.
When the products of industry ex-
ported shall be equal substantially to
the products of other countries i'm
ported, there will be no demand for
specie to export except what may
arise from the circumstances that
our bonds held abroad are sent home,
sold in our market and the proceeds
exported in coin. When the credit
of the country shall be fully estab
lished in Europe, and there shall be
no doubt either OF our ability or dis
position to meet all Of our obligations,
bonds heretofore and now to a large
extent held by our merchants aud
bankers, will be transferred to capt.
talists for permanent investment.
Wien this change shall have taken
place the probability Of our securities
being sent home under the influence
of political and financial disturbances
in England will be very slight, aud
when, as n coneurring fact, our ex-
ports, exclusive Of public securities,
shall be equal to our imports, specie
payment may be resumed without
even a temporary embarrassment 10
the business of the country.

To Cool WArER.-In order to cool water
BY evaporation, it has long beeu the prac-
tice IN warm countries te wrap a pitcher or
other vessel containing the water with a
YEA cloth, the evaporation which served to
reduce the temperature Of the vessel and
consequently Of its contents. An English
manufacturing firm have applied the same
principle in portable refrigerator. The
inner vessel for holding the liquid or sub.
stance to be cooled is surrounded bv an
outer one containing water, and closed at
the top by layer Of porous textile materi-
rial. This latter draws up the water BY
capillary attraction, and the water evapor-
ating from the upper surface, produces the
requisite reduction of temperature.
