APPLY described as a combat between city
and country.
Whether or not the contest results in
making General Butler Governor, it is
scarcely possible that it will change the
control OF the Legislature, and if it does
not the republicans at their worst will be
merely rebuked, and not overthrown. The
reason for this improbability consists in
the moro extensive distribution of their
local majorties than of his. 1t was illus
trated last year. when, casting less than
fity-three per cent of the popular vote tor
Governor, they nevertheless elected thirty
four OF the forty Senator's. and just about
the same proportion of the Representatives.
With precisely such inconsistencies we in
New York are familiar. A heavy majority
for the general democratic State ticket here
by no means assures the election OF demo-
cratic Legislature. But there is no doubt
that the success of General Butler alone,
even with Legislature strongly in oppo-
sition, would make deep and permanent
impression upon the government and the
politics of his State. 1t is not inconceiv-
able that he might manage its executive
affairs wisely and well. Certainly if he
should fail to do so it would not be from
lack of experience and capacity.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1879-10-10

Elsewhere We give space to n remon-
STRANGE against certain alleged evils and
wrongs in theatrical criticism by one of the
most successful and experienced of living
playwrig htsand managers. Mr.. Boucicaults
complaint against tho critics is not that
they are ignorant, but that they are preju-
diced, and he does not hesitate TO add that
their prejudices are OF character which
can be overcome not by the merits OF
play, but by the money of manager, an
author or an actor 1t has become neces-
sary, he says, to secure the favor OF certain
newspaper critics or to avoid their rage ''by
tho sop of advertisement or more direct
tribute !" and for his part he declares that
he will no longer submit to such terms.
either here or in London or Paris, in which
two cities the system he exposes has greater
power, it seems than in New York. He
proposes, VIC understand, to follow this
declaration OF independence by a refusal
to advertise in certain Of the city journals,
on the general ground that when play is
advertised in four newspapers-say tho
HERALD, the San, the telegram and the
GfUDhtc-that buHlclcHtIy Tcbchcs tHc pluy.
going public. The expense Of advertising
largely In all the city journals is too great
drain upon the theatres, and brings no
corresponding returns he holds, and no
chooses. in any case, to use his own judg-
mcnt in this Us in other parts of his bust
ness.
There is some plain speech in Mr.. Bouci-
oaults remonstrancc, but we have reason
to believe that 1t is deserved. The truth is
that the business of theatrical criticism has
long been intrustcd, in number of jour-
nails here and in Europe, to persons not
only incapable OF performing tho duty prop
erly, but who use the great power with
which they are foolishly Entrusted by their
superors to crafty their own prejudices
or for their private gain. We do not, of
course, pretend that there have been no
exceptions to this. but we do say they have
been few in number. In this city the busi-
ness of theatrical criticism was ut one time
handed over to n set of "oyster house
critics." who met after the play to unite,
over too great an abundance of rum
and water. upon the verdict they

We Cannot Conaenf.

Notwithstanding our congratulations to
the World upon it's recent improvements
in enterprise and circulation we really
cannot grant it the monopoly 1t requests OF
the communications of Brcvet Colonel
Mapleson of Her Majesty's Theatre, by
excluding them totally from our own coll
umns The Colonel is u high authority
upon topics of music and of war. The
public looks to tho HERALD for the latest
aud fullest intelligence on these SUBJ
jscis, aud We cannot surrender such
an expert exclusively to our am
bilious neighbour. Nor should we,
in the interest OF peace and good
will. The solitary contribution which tho
World has extracted from tho Brcvet
Colonel, and which, in spite of his dis
claimcr, arouses it's cupidity Tor more, has
already excited an evaporation between
himself and the testy MIX MareIzek which
needs only to be pushed little further ON
either side for serious consequences to on
sue. There can bo NO doubt OF the valor
of brevet colonel, OF Her Majosty's
Theatre, who has manDuvred four thou
sand men ut Aldershott with the Duke Of
Westminster, the Marquis of Donegal
and LORD Bury. AS to Brigadier
Mux, OF our native American opera,
he has often afforded his proofs.
Personal combats, like suicides, are cpl
demical. This Marctzek-Mapleson diff
Guilty follows close on the heels of tho affair
of Lawson and Labouchere. The Canada
line is only tour hundred miles distant
to Niagara, and less than that by way of

counsols moderation and reconciliation,

and the two factions of the democrats
Upon the occasion OF filling the last vacancy
that occurred in the Supreme Court both
and Judge Brady was elected almost unan-
imously. If this excellent precedent is
disregarded and partisan politics now are
to control the choice of magistrates who,
above all others, should be Independent of
the politicians, it will be the most disrep-
utable feature of the canvass. No man is
fit to be judge who owes his nomination
to political craftsmanship. In view of the
negotiations which are going on among the
politicians concerning the formation of
county tickets it is higiotime for the inde-
pendent lawyers of New York to speak out
upon this subject.

said OF any class OF men that they

the Indians, whose proud and inde-

of slavery, have not shown greater cour-
age and steadiness than Captain Dodge's
colored cavalry did when they made their
way into the beleaguered camp of Captain

wars as may arise our government will give
negro soldiers every reasonable opportu-
nifty to exhibit their qualities Moth

giving them just confidence in

should give. The HERALD some years
ago abolished the Office of theatre
cal critic, because the absurdity and
wrong OF the system were seen. 1t is
admitted by the most experienced managers
That no one can foretell the merits or fate OF
a new play. The audience is the only true
critic the point of view of the audience is,
as every manager knows, that on which he
depends and to which he submits. and in
It's manner OF discussing or reporting upon
plays the HERALD has found it for the in
terest OF the public to have them looked at
not from the managers, not from the
favorlte actors, not from the authors stand
point. all OF which are necessarily partial,
but from the point of view of tho audience.
In the HERALD Office. therefore. there is
no stated theatrical critic, authorized TO
praise or damn, as he may be moved by
friendship enmity, dyspepsia or other pri-
vaie reasons. One of several gentlemen is
detailed to attend the representation; he
does not know of this detail beforehand; he
has no opportunity to make elaborate prep
arations; he receives his notice in the after
noon, and in the evening he goes and takes
his place among the audience; he is to all
lntents and purposes one Of that body, and
his report OF the play is the judgment Of
one of the audience, of IN intelligent lis
tener who Is entitled to speak and does speak
the voice OF the general public.
That, it seems to US, is the only kind of
theatrical criticism which is of Importance
either to the public, the party having the
largest interest, or to the manager actors
and author. 1t is not controlled by the
whims, the prejudices or the private in
forests of an individual; and, while it
informs the public and tells that precisely
what 1t wants to know, it Mt the same time
enables the manager and other persons
privately interested to judge most effect
lively OF the success OF their work.
The other system, .tho oyster house
critic" system, is pretty fully described in
Mr.. Boucicault's letter. He speaks from O
wide and long experience, and we need add
nothing to what he says. But we make the
suggestion to him and to other man
ayers that somewhere in every journal,
whatever its character may be. there is
always supreme authority to which they
may appeal against the critic Why not
try this appeal? In every newspaper there
must be some head who desires to do right
and who will resent and punish wrongdoing
in his subordinates.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1879-10-10

No people give so generously as the
poorer Irish people, and no one is so often
asked to give as they. Here comes Mr.
Parnell with new appeal to the pockets
which are ever open, and which, in our
judgment, are too open for their owners
good. Mr.. Parnell appeals to the Irish in
America for money to help the suffering
tenant farmers in Ireland. The HERALD
SKIS its Irish readers in America to con-
slider moment before they obey their first
generous impulse and empty their pockets
into Mr.. Parnell's lap.
What good, what substantial, lasting
good, is going to be done with the money
they are asked for? There is no doubt Of
the suffering but will it be ed-will it
even be in any important degree alleviated
by any possible sum the Irish in America
may, in their free hearted way,
contribute? 1t will not. The money, a
part Of the hard earnings of Il great many
hard working men and women, will be
wasted. We do not mean to say that it
will be stolen; we mean that, applied MS
Mr.. Parnell and his associates mean to APP
Why did the Irish in this country como
hither? Because they hoped to better
their condition and they have universally
done so. Because they felt that every dol
lar they placed or earned here was of far
greater benefit to them and to their children
than if it were placed in Ireland. Because
here they are Tree men. the equals Of every
man, while there they are subjects. Why,
then, should they subscribe money to keep
their friends in Ireland? Why not fur better
raise money to bring them over here?
Why pay out Of their acanty earnings to
begin hopeless attempt ut reforming land
laws in Ireland, when here, in the United
States, are millions OF acres open to settle
ment, without price, and where the farmer
is nobody's tenant, but where che ploughs
the soil who owns the soil he ploughs ?"
We advise the Irish to raise money,
but for very different purpose
Let them subscribe TO bring their friends
and relatives over here to the United States
and to establish them here on the public
lands. Every dollar they spend in this
way will help not only the men and women
brought over but those who remain as woll
for emigration is the only real cure tor the
condition OF Ireland.
So persuaded are we of the great good
which can be accomplished by well con-
certed and systematic emigration from
Ireland on great scale that we
should be glad to see Mr.. Parnell's ap-
peal met by an org inized movement
to raise money to bring over thousands
of Irish tenant farmers and settle them on
Western lands. Toward such a movement,
in good hands, thousands of Americans
would subscribe, and it would not be
difficult, with proper effort, to con-
fer real boon on Ireland and ut
the same time increase the happiness and
brighten the future of a great number of
Irish families who would come to this
country.

wisest answer to Mr.. Parnelrs appeal 10
