The New York Tribune decides that the plural

the same principle" says another paper, '',he
plural OF taior's goose is gooses," as Indeed it
may be.
This reminds the Petersburgh Courier of an
anecdote in regard to country merchant who
wanted two Of these tailors irons, several years
ago, and ordered them of Messrs. Dunn Il Spen.
Ger, hardware merchants, then doing business in
that city. He first wrote this order
Please send me two tailors' gooses'
Thinking that this was bad grammar, he de-
stroyed it. and wrote this one
PLEASE send me two tailors' geese
Upon reflection, he destroyed this one also, for
fear he would receive live geese. He thought
over the matter till he was very much worried,
and at last, in moment of desperation, he seized
his pen and wrote the following, which wa, duly
mailed
"Messrs. Dunn u Spencer: Please send me
one tailor's geese, and, blast it, send me another
This is the only way he knew of to order two
of them; but Of course he had not read the
above wise decision then.

In the distribution of the spoils among the
honest patriots who have battled SO nobly for
the past two months in the cause of municipal
reform and q new deal for political pap all
round, one distinguished laborer has failed to
receive the reward of his toll. John Foley,
the injunctionist, has been left without nomi.
nation for office. II is even rumored that he
has been snubbed and ignored by his 1850
ciates Of the famous Seventy, who appear to
be envious Of the fame he has achieved. All
that the people have gained in this war upon
official corruption has been won through the
gallant efforts Of the persevering Foley. 1t is
to him that we owe the slashing, crashing
Barnard injunction, by the power OF
which the hands of all our city DEPART
ments have been tied, the wheels of
government blocked and the laborers left to
kick their heels outside the Comptroler's
Office, waiting for their overdue pay. Barrett
has received his reward, and has found poll
ticians, for once, faithful to their pledges.

TIE BoNAPARTEs AND THE FRENCH. The
ex-Emperor Napoleon declares his belief that
the government of the French republic is weak
and 'inadequate to the wants Of the country.
Prince Napoleon travelling to Marseilles ran in
danger Of being made prisoner by the French
people at Valence. He was forced to show
his safe conduct pass from the Theirs Cabinet,
and was subsequently Kissed from the town.
This was certainly pretty strong action, and
If the republic of France truly represents the
people of the country it should not lack tone
and force, as the ex-ruler alleges it does.

THE TRADE STRIKES AND LABOR WAGES
QUESTION is assuming very serious proportions
In England The united workmen fight with
the police frequently, and are now proceeding
70 the length Of attacking the property Of the

announces the occurrence Of proceedings of
this character in Lincoln yesterday. The
police were driven of and considerable
damage done to buildings subsequently. Lin

TIE REcAPTURE OF THE SCHOONER HORTON
is likely to prove Of little benefit 70 her owner,
who has sent to the State Department an ac-
count Of that affair, and modestly asks for the
Issuance Of new papers for his vessel in place
Of those seized by the Canadians. Secretary
Boutwell,, although sympathizing with the
Gloucester fishermen, realizes too well the
situation to grant this request. If the Secre-
tary issues the papers be endorses for the
United States government the recapture Of the
Horton, and at once destroys the good feeling
which tho present administration has effected
betwesn the two governments, and paves the
way for On open rupture, IL not long and
disastrous war. This Mr.. Boutwell, has
neither the will nor authority in law for doing,
and, unless the Canadian authorities see fit to
pass the matter, tho owner of the Horton will
have the poor satisfaction Of seeing his vessel

Congress next year on the honesty policy.
Why, then, should Foley be left out in the
cold? Here is another splendid opportunity
for the Tammany democracy to set themselves
right before the people and to prove their dis
interested patriotism and fearlessness of in
vestigation. Let them at once nominate John
Foley for Register and run him upon the capi-
tai Of his great injunction. This will be dis
play of magnanimity unequalled in the history
Of politics, and magnificent enough to cast
halo round the head of the we'll known Indian
who at present looks so gloomy and despond-
ent over the roof of the old Wigwam.
