A COMPLIMENT.

We are under great obligations 10 Mr.. w. A.
Brady of this city. who is trying 10 convince
the courts of Ohio that prizefighting is gentle
and harmless pastime which ladies might 10
their souls benefit patronize and enjoy. Ac-
cording TO the dispatches. Mr.. Brady when on
the witness stand I'm Cincinnati declared that
the Horton law had been repealed because
The New-York Tribune could not obtain free
tickets of admission TO boxing contest
Now. we call that handsome. We pass over
the insnuation that our motives are not pure In
the doing OF good deeds We are used TO little
things like that Every day people who write
things that we do not see fit 10 publish go away
fun of suspicion that are leagued in dia-
holical compact 10 suppress genius and uphold
wrong So we forgive the dark hint about free
tickets. and express our gratitude for the hand
some commitment 10 our influence and power.
We had indeed fattered ourselves that We had
n hand in stopping priZefghting in this State.
We actively supported the gentlemen in the
Legislature who proposed and passed the bill
repeating the Horton law; but never even in
the pardonable exuberance of business adver-
Using, did we claim 10 be the whole thing.
Thanks. Mr.. Brady
Only one fly is in our ointment. When we
pat our virtuous self on the back for our
achievement we wonder who stopped prize
lighting in other States. There are only one or
two spots within this favored American Union
where such encounters as Mr.. Brady loves can
be lawfully indulged in. We did not make the
laws OF a majority Of the commonwealths. 1t
is enough glory for us 10 do it here as Mr..
Brady says we do But who does IL elsewhere.
and why do they forbid fighting as well as We:
II Mr. Brady's diagnosis is correct there must
have been several hundred refusals of free
tickets in many States through long series OF
years, for public opinion Of the whole country
seems 10 be soured by wholesale lack OF free
tickets into a general condemnation Of prize
fighting Apparently the prizehghters ought 10
extend their free list by about seventy millions.
