The Sdrat gtdn has these Just comments upon
Mr.. Curtis
The announcement that the continued i'm
paired health of George William Curtis
will necesstate his entire abandonment of edi-
torial duties for the present, will excite uniVer-
gal regret. Mr.. Curtis has bee. one of the lead
ing. controlling minds Of tho American press
during the last decade. Few If any living men

His labors for the last fifteen years as writer,
lecturer aud member of various public bodies, to
gay nothing of his purely literary atudies aud
his social and miscellaneous duties, have been
simply enormous. We have long feared the
swapping of the string. Mr.. Curtis is not broken
down, but he is warned late, and on tho verge oi
danger he has halted Tho services lie has rem
dered to the cause of right cannot be estimated
As orator and writer his influence has been i'm
Inense. He cannot be spared from the arena oi
political discussion, and sc sincerely trust tina
he will soon return to his port. and that h
white plume will wave again az of old in the for,
front of the legions which have SO long recog
nized in him one of their gallant and most ch.Y

shad in this way. His secret leaked out and fly
fishing for shad is now usual at Holyoke. A
common trout hook is used with the fly attac-
he'd, and with a line of 800 feet guarded close
to the hook by catgut or wire. The ish after

The people of Richmond, Va, are now mo-
wing in the enterprise of Public Park, and
propose to secure ground for it, ''three and a
half miles from the corporation line" The land
is to be given for the purpose, but the city pro-
poses to expend considerable Sums in laying ii
out, and beautifying it, the ground being not SC
well adapted to the purpose. by nature, as oui
magnificent Brandywne banks.

The Gozet,e is the only newspaper in this city
which opposes the Park purchase. The press,
with this single exception, proves its usual fore
sight and devotion to the true interests of the

people's pleasure ground
