THE NE w YORK PRESS.
What the Leading j journalists Of the Ma.
tion's Metropolis Said Yesterday.

NEW YORK, Sept. THE World says:
1.-The true Democracy recognizes and re-
speCts the rights Of the richest man in the
community a- we'll as those OF the poorest
man. IL does injustice TO none. 1t would
not deprive a corporation OF any legitimate
or legal privileges. 1t knows that combined
wealth in great enterprises builds up the
country and aids in its general prosperity,
but it jealousy watches the int rests Of the
toilerS OF the land and will not allow
wealth, with its great power, to impair a
single one OF the peoples rights.
The Times says: The jury which has
acquitted James must have been composed
OF men who get their living by honest in
dustry, and TO whom Ii is as important as il
is to anybody else that they should not be
plundered Of the fruits OF their labor by
robbery; aud yet they acquitted James.
Such an exhibition Of the symp athy OF the
lambs with the wolf was seldom seen be-
fore -
The Herald says: When a workngman
believes that he is receiving too low wages,
or that his hours Of labor are too long, he
naturally turns to strike, bopiug
by that means TO induce his employer
TO remedy his grievances. But the
action ought to be purely
voluntary on his rart, a. he Is
in position to Judge what is for his inter-
estN better than any other person could do
SO for INN. This does not prevent COM
bination and Joint action, but it merely
places the responsibility Of taking the step
where 1t belongs, upon the worker him
self. -
The Tribune says Frank James has
been acquitted. The result will not greatly
surprise those who have watched the pro-
eeedings in court and noted the popular
cling in favor OF the prisoner. The YER
dict was, Of course. received with enthus.
iasm and James would doubtless for time
draw crowded houses as a lecturer. All he
asks, however, is to be let alone in order
that lac may hereafter lead a sober and
goodly life. 1t is to be hoped that the pub
lie, both in Missouri aud elsewhere, will
CRAFTY his wish. y

LONDON, Sept. THE Times, in an
editorial on the unVeiling of the statue Of
Lafayette at Lepuy yesterday, says that
Lafayette was sincere Ia his motives, honest
In his convictions and generous In his ma
ture. The French people to-day might
study his character vita profit. There was
a time when France might have feared that
an enthusiastic cOmmemoration OF Lafsy-
ette's services in the American revolution
might have given offense to England, but
now the strength and stability OF the friend E
ship between England and the United
States are shown by such events.

The Use of Paris Green.

Farmers, bear this in mind: You can
not have a large crop of sound potatoes,
no matter how rich the soil or how we'll
the cropNis cultivated, unless the vines
and foliage are healthy. Protect them,
therefore. If you use too large a pro-
portion Of Paris green in the water or
plaster, then the leaves will be injured,
and injury from THIS cause is just as
harmful as injury from the potato
beetle. 1t is a fact that Paris green may
be so extended with plaster that it will
not harm the foliage while it will kill
the beetles or their larve. 1t is, no
doubt, a handler way to many and GER
tainly it costs less to use this poison in
water, while it is just as effectual. But
the poison does not dissolve, SO that, in
spite of constant stirring, the water of
the bottom of the vessel from which it
is sprinkled upon the vines contains
enough poison to harm the leaves, and
it is for this reason we give preference
to its division with plaster, which may
be evenly distributed over every part of
the plant. Sifters and bellows are now
sold in most country stores, or the
former may be constructed at home at
a trifing cost. We have used Paris
green in water and in plaster through
several seasons and carefully noted the
result upon the foliage. While that
upon which the poisoned plaster was
applied remained green and luxurious,
| the middles (mid-veins) Of the leaves re-
| ceiving the poisoned water would often
turn gray and finally wither. Let us
then bear in mind that IL object is to
preserve our potato vines as much from
the injury of Paris green as from being
devoured by the potato beetle. The
one is just as important as the other,
and both may be accomplished if we
would use, instead of poisoned water,
one part Of pure Paris green to 100 parts
of plaster and thoroughly mix them
together, so that the plaster will be
evenly, though very slightly tinted
to purchase the plaster and green now
and to mix it as above suggested and
store it in barrels in a perfectly dry
place. Thus mixed, there is little, if
any, chance of its poisoning animals,
since they would have to eat a consider
able quantity to do them harm, while
pure Paris green is a most dangerous
article to have about the premises
