A CORRESPONDENT of New York paper
is deeply stirred over the question: ''Was the
human body originally erect, and have we
authority for assuring that it has always been
perpendicular as now? Is there no good rea-
son to believe that the earliest men travelled
on their hands and feet or horizontally? The
writer gives it as his opinion that when
Adam was ordered out of Eden, he fastened
by the command to ''move on" by going on
all-fours. This is a question for the specula-
tive to puzzle over. m rf
The writer insists on one point that may be
tested. 1t is that men will live longer and di-
gest their food far better by assuming hori-
zontal life. This fact may account for the
long life of many, who, metaphorically speak
ing, crawl in the dust.

Yare. II preferred to make . poor
erhibition of jealousy and envy by question:
ing the authenticity of the letters, and at the
same time displayed its ignorance of proper
newspaper management by suppressing their
publication in its own columns altogether,
thus tagging behind every paper in the city in
a news matter of especial interest
Similar blunders are, in fact, made nearly
every day by this imported Cheap Jack jour-
nal. Instead of reproducing the HERALDs
important news from Africa, concerning which
all the world is excited, it gratifed its jeal-
ousy by sneering at great enterprise which
1t never had the brains to conceive or the
means to prosecute. In like manner the spe-
cial HERALD despatch from st. Petersburg,
giving the first information of the position
taken by Prince Gortschakoff and the Russian
government in the Catacazy controversy, was
ignored by the Cheap Jack journal, whose
readers are to-day ignorant of the important
events that are taking place at the Russian
capital. If the stockholders of that paper
think that its conductors know anything about
newspaper management they will before long
be likely to receive practical evidence of their
error. In these'days of vast enterprise, libe.
raj expenditure and broad independence in
the newspaper press, success can never attend
journal that sacrifices news TO personal jeal-
Jousies; and hence the Cheap Jack journals,
although for time kept aaoat by political Or
personal efforts, must eventually go to the
wall.
