of q gentleman who had been foully murdered
in his own house set afloat in the community
by one of these 'interviewers, in revenge,
as il appeared, for the refusal of the son to
submit in the height of his great affection to
a petty and illegal inquisition, instituted in
the hope that the real observations of the
real son of a man really murdered might have
a marketable value. The theory of this per-
version of publicity seems to be hat no man
has a right to any fact of his own life or any
feeling of his own heart which anybody else
can be found to pay another man three cents
for publishing. This is a sort of practical
communism which in other times and in other
countries people have been apt to restrain
either with the cudgel OF by the constable. 1t
is of one piece intrinsically with the practi-
cal communism which leads a gentleman who
lacks watch to appropriate the timekeeper
of his next neighbor.
In the case of a President of the United
States, the outrage must necessarily go I'M
punished, except by the voice of the public.
To denounc it, as it ought to be denounced
in the case of President Grant, is to do but
simple justice to the President. Possibly,
also, it may nerve mems minds to think
whether it really is quite impossible to sup
press the nuisance altogether.

and every inducement to pursue %virtuous
courses. But he began his new life in
which is required of others, taking the lives
of patients into his hands, until, true to the
demoniac instincts disclosed in the record
published yesterday, he made his assumed
profession the means of perpetrating the
capital crime for which he is under sentence
of death. Who that loves justice aud would
protect society will listen longer to his de-
ceitful tales, or do aught to delay the course
of the law in his case?

IMPERTINENT INTERVIEWING.

From the N. Y. World.
A certain portion of the American press
seem to be bent on doing their worst to make
journalism odious by claiming for journalists
an unbounded license of impairment interfe-
renee with personal rights and of irresponsi-
BILE criticism upon private life. One of the
latest demonstrations of this sort appears in
the form of a pretended interview" between
the correspondent of a radical newspaper and
President Grant on the subject of the Euro
pean war. The account is a perfect farrago
of nonsense, in the course of which President
Grant is made to talk of war and history and
foreign politics much as a Japanese idiot might
who had been trying to learn English from a
combined study of the special correspondence
the London Daily NeaoS with Abbott's 'Life
of Napoleon" Of course, it is entirely certain
that President Grant, whatever his incapaci-
ties may be for the Presidential Office (and, as
our readers know, we think those incapacities
both vast and various), has quite too much
sense of what is due TO himself and his high
office to gable in this fashion with a casual
ferret of the minor press No sensible person
will for a moment suspect the gibberish of
which we speak to be authentic. But the mat
ter, otherwise contemplate, merits notice as
a conspicuous instance of a crescent and a
crying abuse. Only the other day a poor
creature who was hanged in Ohio was Inter
viewed on the morning of his execution by a
dismal BOBBY who literally noted down and
described the fact that the criminal, in
opening his shirt collar that the executioner
might measure hisneck for the rope, ''twisted
his mouth and head as one does in unfasten-
ing a button!" We quote the very words of
this inconceivable drivel, because they illus
trate the extreme of imbecility, as the pre-
tended of President Grant upon
Bismarck as "a swamp angel, and upon the
Germans as descending from a ''lot of Hes
slams hired out by Frederick the Great to
England" illustrate the extreme of impu-
dence. Between these extremes the Inter
viewer of the period deliciously oseillates,
to the utter befuddlement of such small wits
as God may have given him, and to the sore
degradation of the public taste. And of
more than the public taste. This discredit-
able erection of gossip into a public function
lowers the tone of the public character also.
We have seen but the other day the most out
ragesus aspersions upon the unhappy son

to thinker great injustice was done the colored

Docs our Democratic friends claim that there
was no place assigned the colored people? Are
there no colored men in the City Council? Are
the colored people not citizens? Are there none
of them who deserve to be called ex-Federal
soldiers? And do our colored citizens complain
that they were ignored, as the Wing claims?
Are they not satisfied to be called citizens, with
out the prefix ''colored?" Docs the Wig claim
that the Republican party is the only party that
honors the Federal dead? We are surprised
that the writer should do us the distinguished
honor of being the only party which holds Al
grateful remembrance the patriotic deeds of the
gallant defenders of the Federal Union.
The efforts of the writer to give the ccreno-
mics ON the 30th partisan coloring is con-
temptible NJ his insinuations are unfounded
And for him to complain that the colorcd people
were ignored in the appointment of the commit
tees is simply Ridiculous. The chairman ofthe
