II those members of the Assembly who have
been making hostile demonstrations against the
correspondent Of our esteemed contemporary.
The SUM- think they have rendered them
selves any handsomer in the eyes of the people
by their exploits, well and good. MIR. Speer,
the correspondent, still lives his natural powers
undated, his weight undiminished, and his dis
position to get the news and print it as lively as
ever. The glorious cause Of the liberty Of the
press has suffered no irreparable injury, and the
earth's diurnal motion is unimpaired. But
wouldn't it be Just as we'll for the Assembly to
get to business and take care d the dignity of
It's members by passing good bills, throwing
out bad ones and coming to an early and hon
orsble adjournment
Mayor Grant expresses establishment at the
action Of the Assembly in taking his Rapid
Transit bill from the hands Of the Committee
on Cities, which was about to report il favor
ably, and In sending it of to the Railroad Com
mittee, which, already choked with business,
cannot act promptly upon it. If the Assembly

tive. Let the bill be fairly considered and
judged on its merits.

be postponed until after the baseball season.
IL Is impossible for the New York Club now to
