THE Philadelphia Times is inclined to be
laudatory ofMr. Cox, of New York, for hav.
ing punctured the river and harbor bill
in congress. The Times says: "How
great service Mr.. Cox rendered in
Tuesdays defeat of the river and harbor
steal is shown by the strenuous efforts the
claimants are still making to get II before
the house. Every day that is delayed d.
minishes its chance of passing, hence the
Importance of Mr.. Cox's initial victory. If
the humorist had no other achievement
