DIR. JOHNSON, when in the fullness of
years and knowledge, said: 81 never take
up a newspaper without finding something
| would have deemed it loss not to have
seen; never without deriving from it in
struction and amusement" When we
consider that the newspapers of DR.. john
sons time were the meagerest things in the
world as compared with those of to-day,
we can imagine what value the great lexi-
cographer and sound critic of the world
would have attached to such daily journals
as are now published by thousands all over
the land. A volume of any well conducted
daily paper makes a perfect world-encyclo-
pedia for the year, and one of more value
when bound at o dollars expense, twice
over, than any similar amount of encyclie
information that can be got for twice OF
three times the money. .-=---.a.r..-.

THERE are indications of coming
struggle in England between the Republic
cans and the old Constitutionalists. Tho
action of tho government in endeavoring in
various ways to stiae free speech has
aroused the indignation-of the Republicans
and of many true liberals who are not yet
pronounced Republicans. Perhaps the
most remarkable of the signs of the times
is the strike of the agricultural laborers in
Cambridgeshire just reported by telegraph.

THE House Of Representatives has passed
the steamboat bill substantially as it left
the committee. The bill reported from the
committee on public lands, reserving the
public lands for actual settlers only, will
come up on Tuesday next. The House has
passed upon the report on the Alabama con-
tested election case, declaring Hadley, the
sitting member, entitled to his seat and ale
lowing the contestant his expenses.

The Ways and Means Committee have
decided positively the two important mat
tiers of the taxes on whiskey and tobacco.
The taxes on whiskey were consolidated and
fixed at sixty-fve cents, and the tax on
tobacco was made uniform at twenty cents.
This latter decision, it is believed, will not
result in any decrease of the revenue from
this source. The committee propose to
hold night sessions in order to press the
revision of their bill, which they hope to
got before the House next week.
This action of the committee on the tobac-
co tax will, no doubt, be satisfactory to
the tobacco manufacturers of this city, and
throughout the State. An act of justice
will have been accomplished when the bill
shall be passed, which our people have
waited for with much patience, if not with
commendable endurance.

THERE are politicians who hold to the
maxim 'that lie well stuck to is better

staple of opposition to General Grant, as
the nominee of the approaching National

this maxim is still well adhered to by
