Pomeroy's Democrat of August
9Th has the following paragraph
which may prove interesting: ave
are interested to learn from the
Democrat, Of Albany, Oregon, that
"Brick" Pomeroy became suddenly
rich in La Crusse-moved to New
York and became richer, then failed
in business, and is now making q
living by writing for wages, thus
proving that vulgarity will work
the ruin of a man, etc etc. 1t new
er will do to give it up so, Mr..
Brown! Why not farther state
that in addition to all the above, he
is now in Jail for arson, at work on
a canal, selling peanuts at a circus,
and in the hospital for the Group.
Nothing like being correct when
making such statements. Those
who lie will steal, and the people of
Oregon will do well to keep a look
out for their State Printer" Isn't
it strange that these Democratic
brothers can't agree, but must con-
be "blowing'' on each other?

The New YORK HERALD has another triumph. It

the plays that 20 under Shakespeare's name, and
the HERALD, having succeeded in making the third
term vital question in politics. concluded to get
up literary sensation by way OF variety. Its H..
terviews and editorials have had the de-.
sired effect, and everybody IL rushing into
print to give his opinion on the great con-
test between ''Sweet WHIP and his competitor
The Sentinel Is decided IN its conviction that
Shakespeare wrote his own plays and that broad

TO attempt TO infer from the internal evidence or
the plays who the author was Is an absurdity. The
knowledge and genus displayed in them do not
set them beyond Shakespeare, Tor We know COM
paratvely little OF what Shakespeare really was
as Il man. the blunderS In them do not set them
below Bacon. Tor there are as many mistakes in
his apothegms as Shakespeare mas made within
equal space. But the people OF 800 years ago
knew more OF their own affairs than we do, and
they settled the authorship OF Shakespeare beyond
