Poets from time immemorIal have been
allowed considerable license in the construc-
ton OF figures and the arrangement CT words;
but this very proper liberty does not justify
them in 'fyin' in the face Of mater" as HowelIs
does in the following extract from his poem
''While the OriOle Sings" in the last number Of
the Atlantic AontAIy:
"And while bark, before my door,
Adown the dusty Concord road
The blue Miami flows once more
As by the cottonwood IL flowed"
Now, TO the best of our knowledge and belief,
Howells never lived on the Miami, nor any way
where near II. His boyhood stream was Mac
Mahon's Creek. That doesn't sound very well
In poetry, TO be sure; and the poet might there
fore be pardoned for substituting for that un-
romantic name "the blue Miami, ;" If he hadn't
committed the still worse mistake of making 1t
low between or beside cottonwood IL is
hardly too much to say that there isn't cotton
wood tree within two hundred miles OF the
Miami.

A correspCn dent writing a word in behalf of
the dogs, as he SAYS, tets us science has demon
strated that they are as liable u hydrophobia in
very cold weather as when it is hot Then all
we have to say is that the worthless. ownerless
ours running at large ought to be killed of in
winter, as we'll as in summer. There are alto
eether too many Of that sort in Washington ali
the year round.

The new currency bill agreed upon by the
conference committee is apparently intended TO
propitiate the West. IL gives that section fifty
i've millions more currency, at the expense OF
the East; and an important indictment to
take this boon would be that 10 reserve would
nave to be held against the notes, which would
make their hssue much more valuable priyi-
lege' On the other hand, there is no positive
increase OF circulation against which the hard
money party could object.

The state OF Maine shows a sagacious appre.
citation OF the fact that it Is worth while to re-
tain men in the public service who, by their
capacity and experience, do her credit. Thus,
within the last week, Representatives Blaine
and Frye and Governor Dingley were renomi-
mated Tor their several positions by acclama-

Eulosies upon the dead do not usually have
a great deal Of meaning, but the good things
said OF Mrs. Cameron, wife of Senator Cam
eron, who died Yesterday, are deserved in the
opinion of those who knew her well. Her
maiden name was Margaretta Brewer, and she
was born in Harrisburg, Pa She had been
married to Gen. Cameron about fifty years.
Tire are three ehildren-the son Don Cameron,
president Of the SOthern Central railroad; one
daughter married 70 Hon. Wayne MeYeigh,
formerly minister to COnstantinople, and who
Is an able lawyer; another daughter is the wife
OF Hon. Mr.. Haldemsn, of York, Pa, now
member OF Congress from Pennsylvania. Mrs.
Cameron had been in failing health some time
but was not thought by her friends dangerously
iii, at least until some time ago, VIII 1 her
physicians said her disease was govt O. the
heart Gen. Cameron often left the Senate to
visit her briefly, even before she became dan
gerously i'll. She was full of vitality, kept up
TO the last, and eheered all about her. Her
funeral will take place at p. In. on Monday

As to the concerted horlin

AS to the concerted howl in the so-called din
dependent" newspapers over the bill lately in
troduced in the Senate, which would, as they
say, have the effect to destroy the liberty of the
press, this Is the sort of comfort they get In the
premises from that pink Of independence and
lofty style, The Nation
"One cause OF the great and growing hostil-
ity tetw cen the newspapers and men in public
lie II the poor quality of the persons employed
By the leading papers as Washington corre-
spoDdents. There IL perhaps no one of their
departments in which the expenditure of more
money would produce more marked results"
That the "great journals OF opinion" as they
are in the habit of styling themselves, should be
turned upon and rended by one of their own
number in this way, is something awful to con-
template; and it goes very far toward reconciI-
ing one to the doctrine Of total depravity
Meantime, we can promise the editor of TIE
Nation pleasant reception on Newspaper
Row" if lie ever comes to have ga little matter"
before Congress or one of the Departments, as
he may have one of these days. The boys Will
give him a nice send of, for his frank express
sion Of opinion a. to their equality"

The Immigration Report.

We treated In our last the absurd aud
hostile views OF the Union- Herald
against the introduction of immigrants,
delivered as il aimed ut the Republican
Printing Company. but really m cant for
the people OF the State, who are calling
on all hands for intelligent. steady aud
reliable labor. The Herald opposes it..
self to their wishes, and plants it's bat
teries directly in the path OF progress
and Improvement. In answering it, we
have assumed that the publication of
statistice, which show our varied re-.
sources. would be both timely and in.
structive. The idea of suoh publica-
ton was not q bad one; but we are free
to say, that the plan was not such a.; to
command approval, nor has it been
faithfully and economically carried out.
The amount appropriated 10 at least
three or four times greater than was
necessary. Reports could have been
procured from tho Counties for the ave-.
rage sum Of $400 each. The services OF
competent compiler might have been
secured for $1,000 or $1,000. 100, ZOO

anie matter might have been printed
aud published icx $l0.c coo or $12. 900.
Tho whole expense might thus have
been keptjwithin. s25. 600. The news.
papers ali over the State aud in other
States would have reproduced alarge
portion ofit, and it's useful figures, facts
and discussions have been extensively
published to the world. What has been
done already. Ve don't know. But the
appropriation of $75. 200, for the pur-
pose specified, is out of all bounds.
II the Printing Company be wise and
capable OF reading the signs Of thu
times, it will studiously and faithfully
endenvor to discharge the business com
mitted to it. It need not expend the
large fund voted towards this purpose
Whatever it does, tue amount and value
o. the publication should correspond to
the expense charged for it. II may de-
pend upon it, TINT it will be closely eyed
and held to strict accountability II
the measure was originated merely to
bring grist to the company, it will ap-
pear in the character Of it's work, aud
will be exposed. 1t is it's duty to use
the opportunity to tnrn a dubious en-
terprise to the public good, and to keep
within reasonable aud proper bounds
OF expenditure, disbursed strictly in
furtheranoe of the professed object.
We are not amongst those who disap.
prove OF the scheme to procure and
publish statistical and other matter ef
interest from all the Counties of the
State, with the view of circulating it to
influence immigrants to come to US.
We think the idea tue best that tho pre-
sent party in power here ever acted
upon. We can conceive that most
valuable, interesting and instructive
volume could thus bs prepared. And
we are sure that it would do great good.
1t would be timely now. Not ouly do
foreigners and Northerncrs need such o
work. We need it ourselves. We
really do not know or properly appre-
ciate our advantages. In the prepara-
tion of tho material Of such work the
best talent and most Industrious research
ought to be employed in the several
Connlies, and o man with high talent
for arrangement and condensation
charged with the Office of preparing it
tor the press. A very useful book
could thus be produced, and at small
cost.
