THE NEW YORK HERALD.

Iron Frank Leslte's Illustrated Newspaper
Every purchaser Of the Illustrated Newspaper
this week is entitled to receive our supplement,
which Is a fac-simile OF the first number OF the NEW
YORK HERALD as issued by the elder Bennett.
Among the advertisements IN the little sheet is
one by Horace Greeley, announcing the publication
OF the NeD Yorker. II Is hardly fair to make
comparison of the HERALD of 1895 with the HERALD
OF 1873 To be sure the paper on which 1t was
printed in 1885 was good, as VIII be seen by our
supplement, which perfectly reprOduces it; the
type was clean and clear, and the writing was
careful and entertaining; but people are likely to
say that it was a very little thing In our re-
production there are absolutely no imperfections
We have not even the creases and burs on
the ime-yellowed paper. But that little newspa-
per cloud, scarcely larger than a mans hand, was
destined to cover the whole journalistic heavens
from Yreka to Ujiti. The HERALD to-day is, In fact
the same HERALD. with the same qualities. What
appears old and little in the HERALD of 1885 as
new and as large as anything that appears In the
HERALD Of 1878.
The Bennett who manages the HERALD to-day is
of the same material as he who founded 1t. The
Livingstone Expedition had its origin in the money
market report invented by the elder journalist
The discussion on Casarism is fit supplement to
the fight on Pierce. The resources are different:
the man is the same. The management Of the
HERALD has always been marked by resolute dar.
ing. Like the waves Of the sea- the paper has lived
because 1t has always been In agitation. We are
moved by no enthusiasm when we say that, taking
1t from 1885 to 1s7s the HERALD has been the great
est newspaper the world ever saw.

The News In Washin gton.

WASHINGTON, Sept. II, 1879.
The news OF the destructive fire In Chicago this
afternoon was generally known throughout the
city tonight, and the latest particulars were
eagerly sought at the telegraph ONCE. The Col
ector OF that port was among the most anxious In
quirers. The first report left the boundaries
OF the connagration uncertain, and as the bonded
warehouse was full OF valuable importations the
anxiety OF this government Official can be appre-
ciated. When 1t was definitely announced that
the fire was under complete control. and had
swept over onlv the poorer district, the crowd
dispersed. Mr.. Norman D. Judd said that after the
great disaster two years ago, 1t was pro-
posed to prohibit lumber yards within the
city limits, but the opposition was SO strong that
the municipal government failed to carry out that
plan; but he was certain now that this source OF
so many CONGREGATIONS would be forever removed
from Chicago and the dealers in lumber would be
compelled to establish their yards at Calumet.
General Sheridan will be authorized to extend tc
the suffering poor such aid and comfort Ia within
his power. IL was wondered on all sides how
the fire fend had again defed the greatest precau
tons on the part of the Chicago authorities TO pre-
vent a repetition OF the sad event OF 1871 an,
while this calamity Is deplored IL was the genera
remark that the city government Of that city wa
at least responsible for permitting the river from

built

The FRENCH PRoTEsTANTs AND THE BoUH-
BoNs-It Is one Of the curious facts of the
hour that the French Protestants have, in
large numbers, petitioned the Assembly,
protesting against the establishment of o
monarchy. It is only some two weeks since
we were told that M. Guizot, the great French
Protestant leader, had expressed himself as
dissatisfied with the Bourbon fusion. M.
Guizot knows what the French Professionals
think and feel in regard TO the restoration and
the entire Bourbon cause. He thinks and
speaks for them, and they stand by him. To
our minds this expression of French Protes-
tant sentiment means that the Count de Cham
bord cannot with their consent be King Of
France. It means more-it means that if the
Count de Paris does not know the meaning Of
the revolution of 1882 the French Protestants
do not want him for King, In the matter Of
restoration Of the monarchy the French
Protestant influence is not to be despised. If
not bulky it is intense.
