A show much more attractive to a well

A show much more attractive to we'll
regulated mind than a walking by
women is the dog show which is an
nounced to begin at Gilmore's Garden
week after next. These exhibitions have
been we'll conducted hitherto aud have
had SO great social success that mod
erately good show tbisyear will be almost
sure to pay its own expenses. which is
all that the projectors of it ex-
pect. We are promised much more
than moderately good show. A compre-
bensiye show Of well-bred dogs has an
excellent effect in teaching people to dis
criminate between such dogs and the
vagrant ours which are not only wor bless
and useless but which are at some times
and seasons dangerous, and which ought
to be abolished. The taxing of dogs as
means to the end of licensing them is a
good device, and no harm would be done
while much good might re done, by the
outlawry of unlicensed dogs not merely
in the dog-days but at all times. We
have heretofore suggested that a proper
supplement to the dog show would be a
horse show, such as IT, at which makes an
annual success in London and for which
New York has ample material in the way
OF exhibits. The admissions would
pretty certainly pay all the expenses of
such show, while the prizes and the op
portunities for sales whi h il would fur

The Journal is playing its game of duplic-
ity exceedingly fine. For months it has
been clamoring for fee and salary legislation
of the most sweeping character. 1t has
massed its mud batteries against county Off
Gals and Democratic members of the Legis-
lature. 1t has charged bribery and corrup-
ton. 1t has whistled and howled, beat its
heugog and got up several tempests in tea
pot on account of the rascallty of county
officials and Democratic members of the
Legislature. The House, taking the Jour
nal at its word, went into the fee and salary
business with rush, when suddenly the
Journal fops, and abuses the bill with all
its might. The Journal has been from the
first anxious that Democratic Legislature
should do imprudent things. These it was
willing to advocate up to a'certain point,
and then flop over and slop over with de-
nunciations. 1t win be well for the Leeisls-
ture If it concludes that the Journal is seek.
ing for political campaign capital, and that it
carries ut least 100 pounds of treachery to
the square inch.

ON BUSINESS,

The Journal is never more asinine than
when il discusses the business outlook. At
such times it seems to hunt around for an
asinego so as to make its articles as asinary
as possible, and it succeeds wonderfully in
anxious to achieve the notoriety of one
General Pope, who made the mistake of
supposing that his headquarters were in
the saddle, when his headquarters occupied
that position-and in this regard the journal
is achieving distinction. The Journal plumes
itself upon resumption" as an evidence of
business Improvement and declares that it
has been safely and permanently effected"
Then it fiops, after the style of the most &C.
complished acrobat, and tells its
readers that if they expect
complete revival of business as the
result of resumption, they are doomed to
disappointment, and that a return OF lost
values can not be expected. This seems to
be the upshot of the Journals discoveries
relating to business improvements
straightout confession that "resumption'' has
accomplished nothing at all but resumption.
But the Journal, in its native stupidity,
seeks to make an argument against those
who opposed resumption and demanded an
unconditional repeal of the law. The oppo-
sition to resumption was based upon the
absolute fact that to make it possible con-
tracing the currency was inevitable, and
that with contraction there would be a de-
cline in values, bankruptcy, business pros
tration, idleness and poverty throughout the
country. Results have demonstrated the
absolute correctness of every prophetic word
spoken by the opponents of resumption.
Business is PROSTATE, Industries are
silenced, confidence is gone, fortunes have
disappeared, the people are idle, poverty has
increased, cities and States are repudiatlng
their debts; and now we are told, that with
an increase of population of more than a
million year during the last decade, the
country is at last So, 900, 0OO, 600 poorer than
it was IN 1870. Indiana has suffered during
that period more than $50 000, 600 by reported
failures, and it is held that the cash value of
every description of property has declined
fully 40 per cent. These are the blessings
over which the asinine Journal permits
itself to go into compton fits of rejoicing.

purposes was defeated in the House yester-
day, on the question of its passage, by q vote
of Al to As. There is possibility that thus
action will be re-considered, but the chances
are that the appraisement of 1875 will stand
year or more longer, thus causing the
owners of real estate to psy tax for that

worth. 1t is due to Mr.. English to say that

The Philadelphia Ledger publishes

especially fatal in the first three months of
tie year. What 1t says will apply, generally

THE question of convict labor is being
widely discussed, and the conclusions ar
rived at are, that crime should be made
should be continued, and that a greater
diversity of employments should be intro
duced. The discussions have little to say
about the effect of crime labor upon honest,
law-abiding working people. Massa-
chusetts has 749 stalwart. crime
stained criminals, from sneak
thief to murder making chairs at 40 cents
day. These crime-stained convicts keep 749
honest men out of employment, who
ought to earn at least 81 80 per day. Ii,
however, honest men with families to sup
port are employed, crime in Massachusetts,
will not be self-sustaining. Hence, Massa-
chusetts shapes her policy SO as to let honest
working people starve that the State may
get 40 cents day from its criminal muscle.
1t is held by the Massachusetts, philanthro-
pIsts tkat their criminals ought to be en-
ployed to keep them in good health, and it
is quite likely that honest men who have
committed no crimes ought to be employed
for the same consideration. But if criminals
make the boots and shoes, the chairs,
brooms, barrels, ETC., which improves their
digestion and gives them healthy sleep, hon.
est mechanics, by idleness, may go into a
decline and their families may starve. The
conclusion is that Massachusetts, is vastly
more solicitous about the welfare of her
criminals than she is about her honest, law.
