From Our Own Gorresponcuint.
Naw York, Oct. 6, 1809. ,
The Ideal Krportrr ol the Period.
The ideal New York reporter, that 1b.
Metklnks I see him novr. There he Roes up
Centre street toward the Tombs. He Is going to
lcara the particulars of the latest police case.
Yesterday he Interviewed Mr. Corbln; to-day he
confronted Mr. Flek; to-morrow he will hoard
the Woman's Bureau. lie Is paid from fifteen
to twenty dollars a week for worming secrets
out of people and blazenlng them In the news
paper. Ills cheek must know no blush, his
. eyes no blenching. Ills forehead mast bo
bronze. lie must elevate lying into a fine art.
lie must troad on all his own fine feelings, If he
ever had any, as ruthlessly as on those of other
people. The last vestiges of bashfulness ho
must trample down, until not the remotest
shadow of a remnant remains. Ho must enter
rooms without knocking at doors. Ho
must listen to conversations hold under breath,
and repeat them in tho local columns;
ho must win confidences and violato them; ho
must first charm and then chatter. He must
wait like a lackey in the halls of tho wealthy,
and corao and come again until the master
chooses to see him and submit to the bra.on
process of belnir interviewed. He must bo
snubbed by officials small and ercat, and indi
rectly bullied by the managing editor if his
report is one fact shorter than that of any other
newspaper. He must hold himself in readiness
to he called unon from tho noon of one day to
tho noon of another, and must be as completely
shut out from society as though there wore no
brilliant bridals, breakfasts, and balls, like
those ho reports. He must accustom himself to
bo stared at, with as much imperturbability as
though he were tho President or a popular prim a
donna, without tho dignity of tho one or the
eclat of tho other, He must bear tho brunt of
ecuoiuir sentiments not his own from tho neces
sity of getting a living, and when he has par
ticularly pleased his chief ho has tho satisfaction
of being informed, by tho parties reported, that
"if that reporter ever shows himself
around hero again, I'll skin him!" This is
the Ideal New York reporter. Is he realized yet?
"Them Cabs."
The sixth of October is here, but "tl. cm cabs"
which were promised us are not. I refer to tho
Hansoms. At first, they were to have been hero
on the first of July. Then they were expected
on tho first of September. Fiually, they were
anticipated by people having a largo prepon
dcrance of hope on the first of the prcseut
month. At the present writing they are not
looked for at all. The project has sunk, never
to be resuscitated nain, uutil public confidence
is "restored" In Jim Fisk. Tho ollico may be
seen upon Wall street, within two blocks of tho
ferry, where it occupies a basement. It is painted
with elaborate ornamentation, and remains a
sad monument to the fond credulity of
Gothamitcs. I own to having shared In that
credulity mvself. I confess to having encouraged
expectations and, shall I add, envy? in Phil
delnhians. which the result does not justify. I
acknowledge having sown, to some small ex
tent, the seeds of a belief that New York was
advancing Hansom-cabwards. That belief, after
haviuar been shaken to its centre, no longer
exists. "Them cabs" is a myth, not a rnauu
facture.
JSuvIng Editorial Column.
Thero is a fight between Mayor Oakcy Hall
and the Sun newspaper. The Mayor has taken
his revenge upon the Sun for having spoken im
pertinently of him, by sending for publication,
to tho other morning newspapers, tho copy of
a receipt for sixty-two dollars, signed by tho
Sun's cashier, for a notice in tho editorial
columns. From a dunning letter, too, which tho
Times takes a spiteful pleasure In rcpubllshln
and which was addressed last January by Mr,
England, the business manager of the
Nun. to Oakev Hall, it see ms that that news
paper was having Its last penny sucked up by
that remorseless cormorant tho press. It
must have felt very severely pinched when it
yielded its editorial columns for the paltry sum
of sixty dollars, mis is uie way sensation
papers flourish. The quarrel Is not perhaps a
very dignified one for the Mayor of a great city
to be involved in, out men no one expects u
nitv from a Mayor who signs official documents
with the fantastic monogram which originated
in the brain of Oakey Hall.
The 'Baren" de Rlvlcre.
Apropos of this person, to whom in a rcceut
letter I had occasion to refer in connection with
a Mad'lle Stille, who represents herself to have
lost her heart and 17500 through him, I have a
little remiuiscence to relate. The newspapers
here seem strangely oblivious of him, although
it cannot be more than six or seven years ago
since he figured here under tho title of "Count."
It is ridiculously asserted that he was one of
Lola Montez' friends and companions. That
lady, however, persistently asserted that she
never know him, although she had heard of him
abroad. The "Baron," or the "Count" for this
is one of those cases where you pays your
money and you takes your choice Is one
of the most gifted and successful
pursuers of adventure that the present
age has produced. When ho was last in this
city he was extremely handsome, and bore
the fascinating reputation of being a devil
among tho women. He was made at homo by
some of tho very best families, and his plausibil
ity succeeded to that extent that a certain Count,
a aenuine Count and a gentleman, In the truest
sense of thut word) whose name I forget, but who
is at present residing in Paris, and who was, at
tbat time editor and proprietor of I Courrier des
Etats- Unis, became his bosom friend. At that
time Col. John S. Du Sollo was (as, indeed, he
is now writing some of the most brilliant broad
sides that appeared In the editorial columns of the
fitmilmi Times of this city. In the course of these
pditorial nhilippies, the Colonel's devastating
neu encountered the reputation of the Count de
Riviere, and stabbed it through with holes that
never could bo mendod. The Count de Riviere
saw the article, and made up his mind that
rr.ii.nM Du Belle's blood (thero was plenty of It)
should How. Consequently, next day the young
nobleman whom I have mentioned us De Riviere's
..h r.nii.Hl unon the editor with tho cus
tomary cartel of defiance, and explained that as
theColonel B instincts wero ncuu,
i,wii uartlully French by birth, he
the Count, should expec t him to conduct himself
n I. -,,lo nnrt not AUiuriuuu, UUU IVJ
uy r rcui " u.,
......f (l,o otinllfttlirG.
'I shall not accept," replied the Colonel, who
i. vf.ediuf!ly Impressive in manner upon
,n,.U,n. "I refuse, on tho ground that your
I not a rreutlcman. Neither would
L.......'n. r l.allence from you, although by tho
. f n. duellol might, perhaps.be ex
You are a, gentleman, and some day
or other will discover tho real character of your
principal."
This candid, characteristic
stiitcinout uiuBt
have appealed to some suspicions lurking In the
young nobleman's own breast. At any rata the
cartel was withdrawn, and no challenge upon his
own account was sent in by De Uivlero'J second.
Tho Colonel, who was then a member of the
French Benevolent Society, and who had a sym
pathy with everything that was French, provided
it wss also virtuous, stowed this fact away In
his memory, In company wltH some million
other of his experiences, and never heard of De
Riviere again until the other day ho turned up In
the Tombs.
The HoroMln.
This association has held its first meeting after
Its summer rest. There is a split In it already,
the elder and tho younger womon disagreeing
on the man question. Youth and crabbed ago,
you know, cannot lie together nor even lunch
together at Delinonlco s without separating in a
row. Ali Baba.

when this important organ does not act, the skin assumes
a yellow appearanoe, and generally a fr hetvlarht sets in.

the machinery docs not work well, and both mind and

any person in this condition Dr. D. Jayne's Sanative
