About Giving Cl edit,

It seems to us an infiinitesimally
snaeH business for an editor to he quar-
relling with his neighbors because they
may neglect to give him credit for q
dozen lines. Our exchanges are, wei
come to anything they may choose t
take from our paper. We clMm n
copyright for anything. - Press ana
Banner.
You are right, friends of the Press
and Banner. 1t always pleases the
Age to see its items used by the frater-
nifty, whether credited or not. 1t often
happens that an item in one paper eX.
actly suits another locality, and should
the editor write an item it would cover
the exact ground. 1t has served its
purpose, what harm, slloald it be used
by a brother? 1t is help to him posi-
hly in a moment of over work or hurry.
You may use our locals, friends, When
ever they meet your wants. And more
than this, after they have originally ap-
peared in our columns, we think them
common property. -Erogrcssire A9s,
FUN AT HOME.-Don't be afraid Of a
little fun at home, good people; don't
shut up your homes lest the sun should
fade your carpets and your hearts, lest a
hearty laugh should shake down some
of the musty cobwehs there. If you
want to- ruitl your sons, let them think
that all mirth and social enjoyment
must he left on the Threshold when
they come in at night. When once q
home is regarded as only place to eat,
drink, and sleep in, the work Is begun
that ends ingambling-houses and degre-
dation. Young people must have fun
and relaxation somewhere. H they DO
not find it at they own hesrthstones, it
will be sought in other, and perhaps
less profitable places. Therefore, let the
fire burn brightly at night, and make
the home ever delightful with all those
little arts that parents so perfectly un-
derstand. Don't repress the buoyant
spirits of your children ; half slf hour
of mcrriment round the lamp and fire
lirht of home blots ont the remcm-
brance of many care and annoyance
during the day, and the best safeguard
they can take with them ihto the world
b the unseen influence Of q bright little
domestic sanctum.
At Bunker Hill Ben BStfcr figured
largely in the procession, as kind of
soldier, being the commander of the
State militia, and Gen. Devcns deliver
cd the Grafton at the monument; but
the two State senators made no appear
ance, Mr.. Dawes being doubtless over
come by the horrid llassseresof negroes
which I've thinks are going OH, and Mr..
Boutwell, being occupied with prepara-
tions for the second civil war, which he
believes to be impending. The political
importance of the occasion can hardly
be evcrastimsted, because if Boston be
disposed to forgive and forget, the rest of
the country may be fairly presumed to
be in the same mood and we have at
last the assurance that the period of
hostile, coercive and unconstitutional
legislation is at an end-that we have
seeu the last of electioncering "outra-
ges. ."-IHc Nation.

STILL ExpEcTANT-THR LAKE SHORE INJUNo-
T1oN-REPUIsIoN IN TEI.HGRAPHY.
There was very little OF special interest on the
street yesterday. 1t was understood that Toledo
and Wabash had not succeeded in obtaining any
bids for its seven per cent loan offered at par, but
that information was accepted without comment
upon the street.
THE LAKE SHORE INJUNCTION
came up again before Judge Tappen, oftAe Su-
preme Court, the Brooklyn Circuit, yesterday,
and was, as is the natural consequence Of such q
proceeding, echoed upon the street as f0llows-
Counsel for Lake Shore argued that the piaintin
had no right to begin this action. that the Union
Trust Company was the proper person to do 50.
and that the Court could not interfere to com
pei the corporation to pay money to the
Trust Company. Counsel also read affldavtts
from Edward King. President OF the Trust Com
pany deposlng that the railroad corporation had
paid to them $489, 900 In bonds for cancellation,
and 1900 in cash. making $1,000, 900 toward
the sinking lund for II, W, 10 and "a Cyrus

Of ais 300 shares on January g, and that the
persons who transferred them to him received
treasurer OF the company, depOsed that pur.
chasers OF stocks up 70 January were entitled
to the dividend. Counsel argued that RuDlno
was used as tile tool OF Wall street operators to
depress stocks; that he came INTO possession
the stock January 8, and began his action the
same day. Counsel for the platntn asked that
referee be appointed to cake testimony as to when
the s4Ss,0 and the $51l, 900 were paid to the
Trust Company, and also as to the net earnings Of
the road. A million dollars had been paid since
THIS acton was begun Alter prolonged argu-
ment Justice Tappen took the papers and re-
served his decision. The street was naturally
anxious concerning this case, and the statement
that the Judge had reserved his decision has
rather fntens. ned curiosity. The various allega-
