In the absence OF other excitement at the cap

some little amusement by methods not strictly
professional Mr. Reed of the Capital managed
by reiterated ISLANDERS TO get himself hca.en by
Judge Dent, an affairin which the condo alultion
of the public is about equally divided between
the parties. The SANDER, Of course, as tie pa

the editors usual avOcations, but being beaten
is not yet, we suppose, included among the reg
ular duties of that or any other school Of jour
nalism. Then the Patriot, another advocate of
the confederate ticket, by some accusations
against Mr.. Shepherd, the vice pres
ident of the board of public works,
provoked a sharp reply IRON that gentleman, TO
which Mr. Bagger, the managing editor, res
pOnded by an invitation to Mr.. Shepherd 10
meet him at the Eutaw house in Baltimore, where
their personal difficulties might be arranged in
more satisfactory way than they could be in
Washington. The accused official, taking this,
naturally enough, as an invitation TO ar
range for duel, declined to resort to
that method of adjusting his difficulties with

of before. Thereupon Mr.. Dagger, whose
front name we hope for the credit of an
already sufficiently maligned class of men does
not begin with c, denounces Mr.. Shepherd in
this vigorous fashion: shepherd has thus
added cowardice to mendacty, and it only
remains for me to fix that brand on his black
ened brow" Washington people in general are
amused with Mr. Baggers minatory eloqueuce.
We should be more ready 10 laugh with them if
we knew, as they doubtless do, whether the
brow Of the vice president Of public works is
now visibly backer than those of other people,
or whether the process of fixing the brand upon
it is expected TO have blackenng effect. The
latter seems probable. All this occurred some
days ago; but we have not yet heard from
Washington that Mr.. Dagger has fixed the
brand When he does it we hope the police
court will not let him off so easily as it did

Nothing is sacred to the New York reporter
and he seldom fails to make his impudence SER
viceable No matter how deeply the unfortu-
nate victim of the interviewer may be absorbed
in private grels or public cares, he generally
inds it easier TO yield than to resist, and thus
the execrable tormentor gets some portion at
least of what he seeks. 1t is pleasant, therefore,
to hear that the interviewer has been defeated
for once. A young man from the New York
World attempted to get from Charles O'Conor
some further explanation of his attitude in re-
gard to the Louisville candidacy, and here is his
report of his failure. The young man is the
first speaker:
''There is some curiosity felt by the public to
know what secret arrangement may have led TO
the confidence with which the 'B0urb0ns cling
70 you as their candidate"
"My letter, sir is sufficiently clear to myself,
and il not to others | cannot help IT,"
GAS it is understood, then, you are unwilling
to assert yourself a candidate, yet will accept a
spontaneous-"
81 care not what is understood, sir" and Mr..
OConor walked excitedy up and down the
room.
"Will you permit me TO ask you a final ques-
tion?
81 will give you the privilege to ask me no
question. What right have you, even as rep
TeSenting the public, to interrogatc me? You
may ask the question in spite of my teeth, but
tell You beforehand that l shall not answer il"
Suppose that yOu were willing to be run
81 do not give you privilege to ask that qles
ton"
"-and were elected would YOU
81 repeat you shall have no answer"
accept the office as the spontaneous choice
of your party?"
Mr.. 0'Conor took up a paper aud began to
read; then arose and paced up and down, as if
concealing a secret agitation.

tempt to extort anything from me-"
That the bafhed reporter should himself give
to the public this account of his indecent per-
sistency, shows wonderful development of
that quality which he would probably call

Twenty democrats in the town of Lyndon,

In California recent law provides that ali
ballots at elections must be printed on paper OF
n peculiar tint, weight and quality, to be desig-
mated by the secretary of state. The secretary
is required to keep constantly on hand, for sale
to all applicants who make affidavit that they
intend to use it for tickets at the next election,
quantity of this paper, uniform in color, weight
texture and appearance, sufficient to supply the
demand. No tickets written or printed on paper
other than that obtained from the secretary OF
state OR precisely like it in every respect, will be
received at the ballot boxes, and the circulation
on election day of tickets printed on any other
kind of paper is punishable as a felony. The
