PASSENGER AGENTS IN SESSION,

The general passenger agents were in
secret session all day yesterday discuss
ing new rates, &C., but no definite action
was taken, nor is it expected that a con-
clusion will be reached before Tuesday.
The question as to where the next con-
yention shall be held was discussed in
committee, and New York seemed 70 be
the favored point, and next September
the time. -.

The London Standard gives an edi-
tvrisl statement OF what it says is the
simple truth:
That the Russian invasion has ag-
rrayated tenfola the miseries of the
population of Bulgaria not esen the
most ferveut OF her admirers will
be prepared to deny. Whole districts,
once populous. peaceful and thriving,
have been devastated. The worst pas
sions Of human nature have been let
loose on both sides. Atrocities have
been heaped on atrocities, SO thateve
the original crime which was the pre-
text Of the war has paled before the
awful horrors attendant upon the So
called punishment. The march OF the
Russian armies into the Turkish terri
tory has been the signal for disorders
OF kind far transceudipg any which
have ever occurred under Ottoman do
ninion.

The perseverance, Of the National
Woman's Suffrage Association in keep
ing the subject OF woman suffrage be-
fore the people ought to be rewarded.
Year after year its representatives ap.
pear before committees of the Senate
and House, reproduce their old argu-
,nents in fresh forms, and retire hardly
expecting favorable action, and they
are not disappointed. We fail to see
any signs Of progress, either in the con
version of the law makers to their way
of thinking, or in arousing public feel
ing or sentiment in their favor. There
seems to be an absolute indifference
we do not assert that it actually exists
among the majority of women wheth.
or they are endowed with the ballot or
not, and all the appeals of their suffrage
sisters have failed to arouse in them a
sense of injustice and that indignation
which comes with a consciousness OF
wrongs inflicted.
There seems to be-and we speak
only of surface appearanccs-a general
willingness among them to leave
the voting, the law making, the
Office holding, and the fighting (when
it has to be done), to their fathers,
brothers and sons; and the eloquence
of Mrs. Livermore, the reasoning of
Susan Anthony, and the eloquence of
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, have really
had more effect upon men than upon
womeu.-Cnn. Commercial

There is q great deal of twaddle in
the papers about patent insides."
The primary object of every newspa-
per enterprise is to make money. TO
accomplish this circulation must be
secured, and the larger the better.
There are two distinct methods OF con-
Quoting country newspapers, one with
an eye special to the editors Of CO.
temporaneous journals, and the other
with view 10 please their patrons.
Now editors delight in news. and mis-.
cellaneous matter has but little attrac.
ton for them. But if a paper is de.
pendent on plain country people for its
support. it must seek to please them.
Miscellany is better adapted to this
purpose than such On exclusive devo-
ton to political news and opinions, and
the patent" process furnishes much
greater amount Of interesting matter
than could possibly be afforded by a
majority Of country Offices if they had
to pay for it at regular compositor's
rates. The spirit which originally
prompted the severe criticisms upon
this feature of newspaper enterprise
was probably tinctured with jealousy,
though now, perpaps, many papers de.
nounce it merely because it is custom.
ary. 1t would, however, be no breach
of courtesy to ignore it in journalistic
intercourse. Comanche Chiet.
