THE DEVIL TURNED SAINT.

The devil, we are told, hath power to
assume pleasing shapes, and it would
seem journalistic devils are no excep,
ton to the rule For some days, the
EC0jNg HoS has sought to create CAPT
tai for itself by twitting The HERALD for
the publication of n communication re-
cctng on u minister of Dallas, and in
sinuating that the absence of the editor
was the cause thereof Wenow desire to
make brief response to the efforts OF
the Mail to create sympathy for itself at
our expense
There are few journals of any
prominence or influence that have not
at times, been mislod by others into the
commission of mistakes and even wrong
to others. TIM HERALD claims to be no
exception to this seemingly unavoidable
evil but we do assert that we sedulous.
ly guard against the preparation OF
such wrongs And while we may have
been sometimes the unsuspecting vchi.
Gle for the ventilation of some mans
malice we have never yet wantonly ms.
sailed the character of any one, male or
female,
What are the facts in the two in
stances which so aptly illustrate the dis
tincton in the management of rnE llER,
AID and the EcpjHg NmR2 A commun-
cation was brought us that mentioned
no mans name, and that was IN great
measure dignilied by the replies made
to il. In the case of the Nui, its cdi-
torial columns We're prostitutcd to the
irrevocablc ruin of fair and innocent
womans name and fame; and that too
with the preface that the editor did not
believe what he wrote but which he
knew would not fail to find believers by
the score in this city.
TnE HERALD has made mistakes :;
committed errors; but it never yet
made of itself O'jounalistic ghoul to-dig
into the tomb of " past investigation
to find sensational grounds for. the ruin
o fl woman and an eminent man And
the explanation the apology How
lame and impotent What charm OF
words can sootho the tender female
heart that bleeds to-day for blackened
fame what art of rhetoric
can erase the stains so wan
tonly, so cruelty, put upon her name ?
And for what? To make paper sell
upon the streets; to crafty the pruri-
cnt appetite of vile men, dobarred from
good society with the false story of
gentle woman's shrme; to sell to the
bar-room the traducement of societys
ornaments! And this is the defender
Of the people; this is the long needed
want of Dallas God help Dallas and
any community that finds in such u pa
per its only moral moral pobulum.
