THE SUIT against ex-Assistant Treasurer
Butterfeld and his sureties has been decided
in their favor by Judge Blatchford. Although
in law they were responsible on their bond
for the money lost, two or three thousand dol
lars, Judge Blatchford holds that the liability
cannot be recovered, because General Butter
field is entitled to much larger sum from
the government which has not yet been paid
Thus ends case which seems to have been
little more than an effort TO settle the question
whether an officer can extinguish his response
bility for loss by deducting the amount from
that which is owed to him by the govern
ment.

The APPEARANCE OF YELLOW FEvER at
Lower Quarantine is neither unusual nor
alarming. 1t is like the distant sight of the
enemy by picket guard. The bark Evange-
line arrived from Cuba on Sunday, and though
three Of the crew died of the yellow fever on
the voyage there are no indications that the
disease will spread. The straightforward, plain
story of Captain Kinney shows how much
heroism brave sailor may have without
thinking Of it. He buried the victims with
his own hands, and With bat two men to help
him brought his vessel, after hard labor,
safely into port. Yellow Jack appears Every
summer on our Northern coasts; but, with
proper precautions, there is no reason he
should cause us INV fear.

calmly she bears it Did any one ever accuse
Mr. Matthias of sitting down in Theodore Til
tons lap2 We hope not He is dog
catcher, it is true, yet NO one can say he is
utterly destitute of moral principles II these
examples are not enough let Mr. Matthias raise
his eyes higher aud behold the President
himself Who has been more savagely attacked
than General Grant? Usurpation, greed,
ignorance and nepotism are only some Of the
offences with which he has been charged, and
even we have been constrained to speak of
him as possible Cesar. Yet the President
does not resign. The delicate sentiment Of .
dog-oatoher does not appear to prevail in
Washington, and that is fortunate, for if it
did the country would be left without gov
ernment
We therefore assure the Hon. Mr. Matthias
that he has been altogether too sensitive to
the criticism of the press, and that if be keeps
on in this way he will never rise. He must
learn, as other statesmen have done, to bear
such wrongs with patience and to assume
proud superiority to all that news
papers may say. Let him read them in
private, and pretend ignorance Of their con-
tenB in public. Above all, let him never
again resign if fortune should give him an
opportunity. As it is, he has introduced
a dangerous innovation in public Life, and
even Mr.. Havemeyer must have shuddered
when he read his letter, and saw what terri
BILE example the dog-catcher had set the
Mayor.

CAUTION AGAINST A RUMoRED SwINDLE.-
We have been informed, on apparently good
authority, that supposed agents Of q sheet
called The House Gazette, which pretends to
be ''board directory and hotel register"
represent their paper as being included in the
regular edition of the HERALD, and as thereby
possessing advantages as an advertising
medium which it would not otherwise have.
If any paper in existence makes such repre-
sentation as this it is o singularly bold and
open swindle. designed to obtain money under
false pretences and we cannot understand
why anybody should be deceived by it The
HERALD offers very great advantages to adver-
tisers, but all who wish to reap these advan-
tages ought to know that the only way to do
this is to advertise in the HERALD. The idea
that the HERALD would farm out o part of its
patronage is simply preposterous. Any intel
hgent person ought to know that It would be
impossible to obtain the beneht of the
HERALD's circulation at low rate by doing
business with paper that pretends to any
such arrangement with this journal.

The Noble Dog-Catcher, or Why IL
This Thuss y
Another faithful public servant has gone
cause deep regret to everybody excepting his
successor. The Hon. Charles F. Matthias has
resigned On Saturday he addressed the fol-
lowing letter to Mayor Havemeyer, which His
Honor read with surprise, as no similar in
stance had occurred in his personal knowledge
since 1889. Mr.. Matthias said
sIR-The severe criticism Of the New York press
on my being appoin Ted Q d0g-catcher for the
Twenty-sec0Dd Assembly district causes me 70 ad-
dress you. did not accept the appointment with
sity compelled me to seek some position to make
an honest living, and as could and no employ.
With sucS inaention: but seeing that as think,
was appointed merely to furnish substance for the
press, do hereby most respectfully tender my
resignation. r at
Dog-catchers are not supposed to be men Of
extreme sendbility, but rather to be stern and
cold, like the first Napoleon but here is one
whose spirit is not, '1ike the dyer's hand,
subdued to what it works in." Pursuing the
unmuzzled dog, Mr.. Matthias thinks he has
been pursued himself by the unmuzzled press,
and this is punishment he cannot
bear. But why was he pursued? Of his
early history we know nothing. We know
only that few days ago Mr.. Matthias informed
the Mayor that in expectation of getting the
appointment of dog-catcher Of the Twenty-sec-
ond Assembly district he had captured sixty
dogs; that he had not received the appoint
ment; that he could not afford TO support these
dogs in luxury and idleness, and that unless
he was appointed at once he would be obliged
to turn them loose upon the public. Then
Mr.. Matthias added that q number of these
dogs already showed symptoms of hydropho-
biA With great presence Of mind the Mayor
commissioned him at once. These were the
facts upon which the press commented with o
severity which we did not approve and in
which we had no share. Such solicitude for
the public good only the heartless or the ma
lignant could censure. We honored Mr.. Ma
thias and resolved to beware of his dogs.
But we wish to say to the Hon. Mr.
Matthias that he is entirely too sensitive, and
that as public man his action is almost with
out precedent. Public men who would sue
ceed must not mind the severe criticism Of the
New York press, and they DON'T II
they did, then there would be no
public men. Everybody would be q
private citizen. Look at General Butler
spoons. Look at Mr.. wiIliams-landau-
let Look at Mr.. Murphy-Custom House.
These are gentlemen who have been severely
| criticised by the New York press. Yet they
never resign, though they are Resigned Then
there is Mr.. Beecher. Let Mr.. Matthias look
upon this eminent clergyman and consider
what he has to endure. Has Mr.. Matthias
been accused of adultery, of lying, of perfdy
and hypocrisy2 There are Mr.. Tilton
and Mr.. Moulton, gentlemen whom the New
York press has severely criticised for black
mailing, perjury and conspiracy. Then w

The AMERICAN Base BALL players have

The SINGULAR ABDUCTION of o white girl,
nine years of age, who had been adopted by

D..xr..m... Of Polls,e.l Does.rs.

Disagreement Of POlitical Doceerss
Our contemporary, the Commercial Advertiser;
and that doughty champion Of the straight
democracy, tho Albany Argus. are at logger
heads on tho subject Of the comparative cor, cor,
ruptions and ptoAigacy Of denoeratic and
anti-democratic administrations. The Com
mercial advertiser having pronounced the Ore
dit Mobiier and Sanborn job the 'cheapese
kind of petit larceny in comparison with the
stupendous swindling of the democratic gov
ernment officers Of 1885 and 1887" the Argus
retorts on the venerable New York organ by
charging upon it the most prominent share in
the efforts to compel new charter for the
United States Bank something less than 9
hundred years ago, and with persistent infiu-
ence in all whig and republican enormities
down to the present time, when it stands
almost the sole champion of straight republic
canism in the city of New York. The people
may learn from the quarrels of these veners-
BILE political organs the fact that there is but
little to choose between political parties in the
matter Of honesty, and that long lease of
power acts with the same damoralizing influ-
ence ON both organizations. Perhaps it is
this conviction that induces the desire for o
change so manifest in recent elections.

VIRTUE EXISTS, and we are rejoiced to an

Diana's temple. Miss Susan B. Anthony, who

for, reckless as Mr.. Tilton may be, we are con-
fdent that this was liberty he would never
have allowed.

Mr. Tilden belongs as clearly to this class as
Mr. O'Conor. Mr.. Tildsn has been active in
politics ever since the administration of Pres
ident Van Buren,, but the only political
Office to which he was ever elected was that Of
Member Of Assembly two years ago, not by his
own party, but by the reformers. After Dean
Richmond died at his house Mr.. Tilden was
made his successor as chairman Of the Demo
cractic State Committee, position OF honor
and influence, due in part to liberal contribu-
tions of money for election expenses and
partly to feeling that the incumbent desired
no Office for himself, and was, therefore, i'm
partial and disinterested % between compct-
ing candidates. For well understood reasons
Dean Richmond would never permit himself
to be candidate for any ofAce, although he
was personally very popular. and Il
his successor, who lacks his bluff,
hearty, attractive qualities, runs for
Governor, he win not only fail of
an election, but forfeit the legitimate influence
in the party which he has for some years
enjoyed It is astonishing how often the
vanity of able men seduces them into false
estimate of their own strength. Poor Mr..
Greeley was an example by which Mr.. Tlden
might pro6tably take warning. So long as
Mr.. Greeley confined himself TO his proper
sphere o. an editor he ranked With the
strongest men Of the country, but when mis-
guided ambition and personal vanity pushed
him forward ~ a candidate for high Office be
