Revelation and Rottenness In Mexico.
1t will be seen by our telegraphic dispatches
to-day that tho report we gave some time
republic of the Occident in Northwestern
Mexico is confirmed General Vega has
declared the independence of Sonora, dis
missed the Custom House officers of the general
government, and the revolution is reported to
be spreading.
Our City of Mexico correspondence is to the
Goth of March 1t represents the country to
be still in disturbed condition. Sinaloa is
torn by rival factions, and a general reign
of disorder marks the period. The Mazatlan
Custom House is in the hands Of set of
hungry officials, who are filling their pockets
at the expense of the public treasury and
credit. Tamaulipas is in its usual state Of
commotion. The wise measures of the butcher
of San Jacinto, Escobedo, can always be
counted upon when there is ''hell broth"
brewing General Cauto, who shot Governor
Patoni in cold blood, is at large enjoying him
self in Durango. Certainly Mexico must be
the paradise of assassins. Ceballos, who so
lately committed the wholesale butchery at
Merida, in Yucatan, is to be replaced by
civilized Mexican. 1t is stated that after long
search the government has found such man.
General Zerega is this Mexican Agsmemnon.
An indignant Congress of virtuous men Is to
demand very soon history of the Merida
massacre. Iglesias the Minister of Gober-
nacion, is very i'll. Were he to die his powers
of deception are SO great that he will slip into
heaven unless St. Peter is very careful.
So the country moves on. Bad blood slowly
works to the surface kind Of revolutionary
scrofula So it will continue. The present
government Che liberals) will no doubt long
cling to power. They will gradually, in the
course of century, show some stability and
inclination to accept progress and modern
civilization. No great internal revolution can
disturb them-nothing but the stencil which
arises from the blood bubbles of old political
issues. The country enjoys a comparative
peace, probably as much as should reason
ably be expected after so terrible struggle
between the clergy and liberalism. We await
results with patience, feeling, however, that
by witnessing so much crime and not inter-
fering we are somewhat culpable also.

ment envelopes are very large and may en-
close pretty fat packages, and lace veil, nay
perhaps lace shawl, could be gotten into one
with squeezing. Were such things ever sent in
that way? We should be glad to know that
culture was spreading in the country to such
degree that many Senators wives had got up
to the taste for lace. 1t is an evidence OF the
highest refinement. As it's "on the carpet"
to withdraw Hale from Madrid on an allega-
tiou of corrupt practices, ought not the gov
ernment to exercise the most straightlaced
discrimination in the choice of his successorF
Is not that our delicate point in Madrid just
now?

THE TAX LEVY was four millions and a half,
and has been cut down by half million in
the Legislature; but Peter Cooper's party
thinks it could be cut down at least two mil
lions. This may be an exaggerated economy;
for Peters party, like other parties, makes
very low estimates when II has not the spend
ing Of the money. There is no doubt, how
ever, that the levy is much too large.

The Cotton spinncrs' strike In England.

We published recently an interesting letter
from our London correspondent In re-
gard to the cotton spinners' strike in Eng
land. In Lancashire, the principal cot
ton centre, some FIVE thousand mill hands, !"
as they are called, were out on strike. BY
this time the number may have swelled to
twenty or thirty thousand. In Lanarkshire,
Scotland, where there are many thousands OF
families dependent upon the cotton mills, some
mills were already standing. The disease

ENTERPRISE Rewarded.

From the earliest recollection Of the oldest
inhabitant, the Merchants and bus mess men
of Woodstock have considered it essential to
their success to establish themselves on what
has long been known as Main street.
About one year ago, however, the enter
prising firm of Nelson & Co, disregarding
this long established custom, located on West
Street near the Depot.
If any doubts of their success existed at
that time these doubts have long since van
ished, and the firm of Nelson & Co. may
now be regarded as one Of the permanent H.
situations of Woodstock:
This result may be attributed chiefly to
that exquisite taste and sound judgement so
remarkably displayed by the principal of the
firm. The polite and afabls department of
their Chief Clerk and the reasonable rates
and accommodate terms upon which their
goods are sold.
We have just learned that the above firm
are now engaged in purchasing their fall stock
of goods and we are assured that the citizens
of Woodstock and vicinity may anticipate a
grand display rarely seen next week, when tn cir
extensive assortment will be opened for sale.
Watch the advertising columns of the Herald
for notices Of the arrival of cheap new goods.
We always keep posted, and will give you the
earliest infor nation.

No. Few persons, out side the profession,
know the trials, and the DELEGATE situation in
which newspaper journalists are often placed.
So many tastes to pander to, and SO many
conflicting ideas to harmonise. The world
and its hum is to everyone different, and
journalists to be successful and popular must
harmonise the discordant with the more har-
moneous. The duties Of good journalist
are plain. He is simply the employee of a
stated number of individuals, who salary
him for the purpose of furnishing them the
greatest amount of news and reading matter
in given number of columns. They have
entrusted him with the duty to select Gull
and write upon subjects of most interest and
Importance to themselves. He is to be the
judge, and when he fails to eonfne himself
strictly to his obligation, and surrenders his
contracted space to lengthy and irrelevant
articles, he is betraying this trust and con-
fdence. Newspaper correspondents seldom
consider the capacity of a journal, and if
their articles are necessarily 'scut down"
or rejected, they usually vent their disap-
pointment upon the poor journalist, and rever
take into consideration that he is only per-
forming his duty to others in reluctantly
offending them. News correspondence, to
insure reading, should be terse and concise,
not indulging in circumlocution and ambiguity
