''SroNGING" ON NEwspArEns.-Ever
man thinks newspaper fair game. If
society or any body of men get up q
concert or ball, or other form Of enter
tainment, tho object Of which is to put
money in their pockets, or if the pro-
ceeds are to be devoted to charitable
purposes, to add to their own glorifica-
ton, they become very indignant if the
proprietors of newspaper do not assist
them by series of gretuitous advertise
ments for several weeks before the event
takes place. These gentlemen should
remember that literary men, in this
practical age, work for money as we'll as
for fame-principally the former, how
ever; and the business manager of o
newspaper, if he wishes to beep on the
safe side of tho ledger, conducts his
charge on the same principle as the head
of any business establishment. People
who are getting up o ball would feel
chary of asking present Of pair of
gloves from any merchant on that &C
count, yet asking and expectingft to re-
ceive a gratuitous advertisement is a
similar demand. The editor of tho Marl-
boro MASS Journal states the case very
plainly when he says: "We long ago
adopted the plan of charging our regn-
lar reading notice price for all editorial
announcements Of. entertainments to
which an admission fee is affixed. We
make no exception to this rule q. In, the
way of news topics, we freely and gladly
insert sketches Of all. entertainpents
after they, have become NAT ttpT7 lpf his
tory. It is only the pre5tpfA4GY work,
looking to the drawing ont Of Increased
patronage hom the public, for which we
expect compensntion."

THE PERAsICM CASE.

Commenting on the very remarka-
BILE conduct of q Carson Justice In re-.
leasing one of the Perasich brothers,
when both had gone out on the same
murderous mission, the Virginia
Evening Chronicle of the goth inst. per-
tinently says: "The second Daniel"
who glorifies the position of Justice of
the Peace in Carson City, has added
another laurel to his wreath. Yester-
day he discharged George Perasich-
who was with his brother Ella when
the latter fired into the stage coach
about ten days ago-because mo evil
dence was adduced to criminate
George" From this We are to infer
that George Perasich accompanied his
brother in the hope that he might be
able to dissuade him from his rash
purpose, and with no thought of assist
ing him in its execution. The next
Grand Jury of Ormsby county will
doubtless take issue with the Justice
upon this point, and give George an
opportunity to disprove the charge of
being at least accessory to an assault
with intent to commit murder"
