/ THB Now York Commercial Advertiser, one OF
the stsunch Republican journals of New York,
allules to It's morning Contemporary, the Times,
Of that city, %. foiiows:
We have been trying for some time to have
our nsighbor of the Times realize that its course
- "the only Republican organ in the city" was
veey eccentric one. We have repeatedly re-
minded the Tsnss that behaving like drunken
Hibernian ct Donnybrook Fair, treading upon
evesyoody's cost-tail, and punching every head
In its way, was conduct unbecoming gentle
man and Christian. The Times will not take
our admonitions kindly, but sets about raging
and scolding Ike Ash-woman. The public GER
tainly expected better things Of Il than that of
'plug ugly" They hoped for respectable Jour-
nal, not "moEning growler, /" not Q "common
scold." But We have given up our good Offices,
and find we cannot reclaim our neighbor the
Times. What is bred in the bone will come out
In the nesh. But few mon are able to overcome
bad habits contracted In youth. It Is unfbrtu-
nate for our friend Of the Times that he laid the
foundation Of his fortune in the sale of the
Sritch, the New York FIasA, Whip, Paul de
Cocks novels and other obScene literature He
was good, pious young man in th1se days,
but the love Of money 90 demoralized him,
that he has grown hardened and shameless,
and we give him up in despair. If he had
gathered sense while gathering his ilt-gotten
oesS
pandered to the basest passions, We might have
been able to bring him to o realizing sense of
his danger, but II h evident, from the idiotic
course Of this paper, that the poor man has be-
come demented. The fact that about every
leading man In the Republican party repudiates
the Tiasss - Republican organ, and that,
with here and there an exception, every Repub-
lican editor regards the 1tn,ss - dead weight
to the party, 10 evidence that the paper Il msn-
aged BY lnnatic, who ought to be inthe asylum
and not at the head Of . great newspaper. We
desire 10 say TO our neighbor that We appreciate
tho kind act Of the Tinsss in coming to our de-
fence In our sktmish with member Of Congress
some years ago. We never forgot kisdness, and
this act Of the Times has covered multitude
Of sins. The claim Of the Times that Il saved
N from being s'lsid By the heels" IL 90 modest
and delicate, and 90 Characteristic of that
paper, that we will engage in no dispute on
that point. We will not be 80 indecent Is to
remind the public Of all we have done to save
the Times' man from degradation and Q con-
vict's suit. We scorn the act. We shall try
to show ''the virtue Of . dog" and endeavor
to exhibit our gratitude by sparing his feelings
and bis shame. Il II. .4H-- s;r

THE DUTY OF CONGRESS.

IN the country any supremacy over the 10y
atty with which we have supported the So
cred trusts and principles of the party, we
claim that THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN
has been equal to any Of its contemporaries
in the fairness Of its criticism both Of the
acts of the party and of the official action Of
its leaders. When the present session oil
Congress began there were many things to
be done for the benefit of the people and to
maintain the ascendency of our political be-
lief Weighing the situation carefully in
all its bearings with the Judgment Of cool
deliberation, we have not hesitated. when
occasion required, to admoAish the Repub.
lican members Of either house that their
duty required Of them ready response to
the demands Of the people as regards the
repeal of the back-pay law and other meas.
ures Of pertinent current importance. We
felt compelled to do this a their friend and
as the friend. in common with them, of the
great principles which underlie our politi-
cal faith. We believed that suggestions
from such source would be more sccepta-
bic to them and productive Of more good
than the harsh comments and prejudiced
criticisms of political opponents. We knew
that the party could only be held together
and entitle itself to the support of the peo-
pie by course which would free 1t from
any imputation of false dealing or selfish
appropriation Of the public funds. no matter
how strong the pretext At times. when
debates have been uselessly prolonged, we
have sharply urged quick action; but at
others. a In the recent passage Of the trans
portation and finance bills by the House, we
have fastened to give credit and praise
when credit and praise were due. ea 2 81
This we have conceived to be the honest
policy which should be pursued BY an hon
est exponent of party principles. The wide
spread circulation Of our journal has en-
abled us to disseminate the fruits Of this
policy throughout the districts Of nearly
every member Of the House, and certainly
to plant it, seeds IN every State and Terri
tory In the Union. Our suggestions have
often been taken up BY the country press.
and have been ampli6ed into materially I'M
portant discussions, or have occasioned un-
favorable comment and adverse deductions
from political enemies But our purpose to
pursue the same policy in the future is I'M
altered We trace TO It directly growing

names Of men Of every political nth, and
