The mass-meetlng at the Cooper Institute
last evening took up the great subject of the
protection of American industries in a sober
and judicious spirit. There was 10 clap trap,
no attempt to arouse excitement by specious
appeals. The hall was crowded and the
audience was of substantial quality an intelli-
gent, earnest gathering. 1t was fortunate In
its presiding officer, for no more devoted
friend of American industries and of American
workingmen than Peter Cooper can be found.
Il was fortunate also in its chief orator,
Mr.. Evarts, the effect Of whose elo-
quent address viii be felt far beyond
the walls of the great hall in which he spoke
On the platform were some of the most re-
spected and most influential citizens of New
York. The resolutions put tersely the Ameri-
can policy OF adequate protection while call
ing upon Congress to reduce the duties within
reasonable limits. Altogether this meeting
had the right ring.

THE man who permitted a regular
prize-nght between two Philadelphia
brulsers to take place In his parlors,
has introduced pleasing innovation
upon the stercotypcd forms Of social
pleasure. This will bring the prize
fight within the reach Of persons to
whom II has hitherto been denied.
Owing to the uncertainty concerning
the locality at which the ring was to
be formed, ladies have generally been
unable to attend these interesting en-
counters. Prize-Gghts in parlors re-
moyc this difficulty, and IL becomes as
easy for a lady to witness prlze-iight
ms TO attend any other form of social
amusement. The Pennsylvania gen
tlcman will doubtless find innumera-
bic imitators, and fashionable society
may presently find itself in receipt Of
invitations to attend the prize-iight

dcnce of Mr.. and Mrs. So and So.
