The Aneriodn A5rieuIturist recently pro-
nounced Q certain patent medicine "noasensi-
cal quackery," and was called upon by the
proprietor Of the medicine to answer for il be-
fore court Of justice in New York. The de-
PENDANTS justified themselve on the ground that
their statements were true. Prior to the trial
the court summoned the plaintiff and desired to
know the composition of his remedy. The
plaintiff said it was ga secret compound of va
rious ingredients which possess great medical
qualities" but refused to give the component
parts The court thereupon dismissed the sult
with costs. The plaintiff appealed 70 a higher
tribunal, but the decision Of the court below
was confirmed

The New Inyestfxattou

IL Is to be hoped that the Senate will prompt
ly concur with the House in the appointn emit of
a joint special committee for the Investigation
OF District affairs, and that the committee will
proceed 70 work as speedily a. possible Let
the investigation be 20 full and exhaustive
that the truth or fslsity Of the charges
made against the District government
shan be established to the dullest apprehension.
The District authorities have again and again
challenged investigation, and one ordered by
the House Is already in progress at their request
but II there Is any cayil at that let the memOri-
alists say what ViU satisfy them In the way OF
an inquiry, and then require them to come
square up 70 the mark in the matter of proving
their allegations. There can be no objection
to one or a dozen investigations, other than the
fact that they serve, only, to enable the
mslcontents to cripple business and i'm
provements, and hamper the efforts of the
District government tOprovide means for carry
ing on the important works undertaken, and
for paying the deserving employees engaged
upon these works. The last investigation which
the mslcOni ents now declare was rot "evhaus-
tive, occur led FIVE months time, and The printed
testimony rlade a volume of thousand paVes
We have no expectation that an investig CATION
Of twice that length, or filling half dozen vol
nmes, will satisfy them, for the simple reason
that they will utterly fail now, a. then, TO prove
any OF their serious allegations. But however
much delay and annoyance may be occa-
stoned, ami however much the poor NAV
suffer viii the millionaire indictments
are carrying ont their pro eet of defeating
appropriation and deprecisting District
securities, L is pretty certain that the
protraeted investigation threatened will
serve to shtw Congress very effectually the
true status f the fsctionists and thsiy oppo-
nents, and viii demonstrate which set is worthy
to be honOred as good citizens, and which to be
exeeTated as willing to destroy the prosperity
of an entire Community in the spirit of envy and
malice.

The National Grange OF the Patrons OF Hus-
bsndry, which meets in ST. Louis tomorrow,
will be called upon TO discuss and settle to some
extent various questions which have been raised
among the grangers during the past year.
Among these matters viii be the absorbing
transportation question and the extension of
the principle Of cooperation. The National
Grange will also determine whether its head
quarters, now in this city, shall be removed TO
some Western city or not 1t is understood tn at
the Grange will not sgitste the color question,
but win leave it as heretofore to the local
g'anges, who can use their own discretion in
admitting or rejecting colored applicants.

TEE RIGHTS OF THE PREss.-A decision has
just been made In the Superior Court of NJ

was on a suit for libel in publishing In the New
York TiRes something which occurred IN
police court. The plaintiff wished to show tina
the facts set forth IN the police court were
false The court below and the court above
held that the publication Of what actually oc-
Cured In the court was privileged, whether
true or false in itself, unless shown to be ma
iicious- The complainant was accordingly dis
missed.

The complication between the director
general Of the coming centennial exposition
and the alleged Matchmaking correspondent.
seems to be in a worse muddle tn An ever since
the publication Of that officials evidently doc
tored letter on the subject. Mr.. Gallagher, the
only offender whose name was given in that
connection, steps to the front this morning, AID
in card denies some Of Mr.. Goshorn's material
statements, and protests very naturally against
being made scspe-goat for the whole pack OF
wicked senbes,-if any such there be. The text
of Mr.. Goshorn's published letter is 40 different
from what the original version was understood
20 be, as well as so far from the charges at first
made, that that gentleman has only succeeded
in placing himself in an aw kward position in the
premises, without really relieving anybody else
by his performance.

Ii is to be regretted that Congress evinces no
disposition at its present session to authorize
the establishment OF an inebriates' home in the

Habitual drunkenness PER s. should no longer
be regarded as crime, but as a disease, say
leading physicians and all who have given this
subject serious consideration. And vet our

/FALsE RUNORs.-We have the very best au-
thoTity for saying that there is no truth what
ever in the statement telegraphed hence on
Sunday night to the effect that the committee
on civil service made damaging inspection OF
the bureau OF engraving and printing on Satur-
day, and that on the dsy previous the employees
in that bureau "were called up in regular order
and requested to state what influence they could
command, and those who were unable to N en-
ton some po'ential name pronounced their own
doom" What the committee in question nav
do or propose to do in the future OF course there
Is no means OF knowing, but we are assured on
authority likely to be well informed that :sthere
Is not one word Of truth in the whole statement
as telegrsphed, or any truth i'm any portion
thereof" These Misrepresentation seem to be
set on foot in the interest Of the New York bank
note companies, whose prosperous existence so
largely depends on breaking down the bureau
here and in carrying the engraving and printing
OF government issues away from Washington.
