Cdltorlal Opinions of the Leading Journal s uponCurrent Topics Compiled Every ' Oayfortho Evening Telegraph. i . MUZZLES .NEEDED. from the 5. F. HWbuna. Tbe respectable Mayor of Davenport,; Iowa, is just now pajiog in sackcloth and ashes in his old ags the penalty of never having pat a bit in his month in his yonth, that unruly member, his tongue, having ran away with him to his own nndoing. It appears that a story WftB lately circulated respecting the chastity of a certain Miss Fejer vary, a wealthy and unprotected young lady of that city. She determined to become her own avenger, and traced it to the first responsible person, who proved to be our unfortunate Mayor, a grave" I and venerable citizen. &ne promptly sued him. In the course of the trial her innocence was proved, but the verdict was in the Mayor's favor, as it had appeared he had "repeated tbe elan'der with no malicious intent, but as' de ploring it, if true." The young lady, not considering his lamentations any recompense for her murdered good name, has avowed her intention of pursuing her vengeance to the bitter end. "Should the best years of my life be spent in the endeavor," she says," "I will not rest until a verdict has been given for or against me either at this court or a higher one, and an example set, not only to my, but to all slanderers; for in. bringing this suit I was not unmindful of the many innocent girls whom I have seen injured as shamefully as I have been, and much less able to defend themselves. " We are not sure that Miss Fejervary has hit upon the ' most effective way to silence a slander; but there is a genuine, hearty vigor in her onslaught which is wholesome, if not prudent. "We hold to the creed, long out of fashion, that a woman's good name, should be as unsullied as "the fanned enow, that's bolted by the northern blasts twice o'er;" and that neither money nor blood is rich enough to pay her for its once soiled white ness.. But after all we confess Bome sympa thy goes with the unhappy Mayor. ' A fellow feeling makes us kind. Why should this re spectable citizen be chosen by unmerciful disaster in the shape of Miss Fejervary from out a country teeming with gossips, to be lashed naked through the world? Warnings such as this must force the sterner sex to turn upon eaoh other and hold solemn inter confessional together. Ilave any of us a bit in our mouths ? . In our fathers' days gossip was the peculiar vice of - women; the re proach of it was the rod perpetually in pickle wherewith " they . were lashed and stung and properly kept under by their lords and governors. The popular manly idea of woman past sweet sixteen was a tea table, a wagging head, and a cackling tongue. But we have changed all that. Since petticoats have come rustling into the jury-box, the judge's bench, and the rostrum, we .have sipped the dear unknown delights of scandal monging. Why should we not carry the war ' into Africa? ' If Othello's occupation's gone, ' is he not to essay Mrs. Othello's? To be sure, We enlarge and liberalize the business.. Instead of. whispering the story over the fence to a neighbor, or to the sewing society, we take the whole world into our confidence; we distribute the dainty dish of slander, the more highly spiced the better, in the morn ing's journal instead of at the tea table,' that half a million of - readers may partake of it, and run to spread their 'own version in coun try newspapers, at restaurants or clubs. In stead of two women, their chins together, ac cusing Mrs. Jones over the way of cheating her grocer, or Mr. Jones of flirting with the chambermaid, we have a nation of men on tiptoe with eagerness to hear how Mr. Cooke ran away with one of his parishioners; greedy too. for the minutest details when the young lady's mother was born, and what is the political opinion of her brothers; or we stand open-mouthed with expectation from Maine to California to hear how much fin another reverend gentleman mixes with is milk. The mode of conversation is dif ferent, but that there is a similarity in the subjects cannot be denied. We have endea vored to keep this masculine propensity out of sight of women. We would fain convince them and ourselves that our minds dwelt . apart in lofty solitudes of reason, philosophy, . and abstruse science, to them unknown. But the dear creatures are not deoeived. ' They will not long shut their eyes to the fact that the Traupmann murder was of more absorbing interest than.' the (Ecumenical Council; that the nation will wait breathless to hear the filthiest slanders of a murder trial, and remain quite indifferent as to whether the Indians are exterminated or not; that men reach a certain position and power simply through their skill in virulent scandal mongering. The hag who personified' slander- so long had but a feeble breath; but the young jour nalist who- has taken her place, who makes his daily chop and oigars by dodging at back doors to report specialities, has a "tongue that outvenoms all the worms o' the Nile, and doth belie all corners of the world.'' What is to be done about it ? Are we to go on ex hibiting ourselves tricked put in the cast-off vice of the women ? Is scandal become the manly art of self-defense ? Will the Mayor of Davenport. Iowa, make vicarious atone ment for all 'of us ? Or is he only a provi dential warning to consider our ways, lest a VAmAia in .V.no st " TJ 1 ...... 1 1 sense of decency and manliness among the people overtake us at the last ? ' FORNEY AND FREAS, From the N. Y. World. Who Mr. Forney is everybody knows-but we are a little puzzled as to Freas. ' We take him, however, to be the editor - of a weekly jorunal which chronicles cabbages in the out skirts of Philadelphia. He is evidently a 1" oily individual, for we read of .his "festive oard" and the "drinking of healths' and "the clinking bf glasses;" and in our mind's eye we clearly see tbe cherubic forms and faces of the conductors of the Philadelphia press having a good time generally around the suburban mahogany, lhen it was tint, in the midst of the innooent and .bewildering fumes of .Verzenay ad Ubilam (for in the article of liquor Philadelphia never touches the domestic fabric) -in those hilarious m merits when, according to Punch'i sketch of the frohVat Greenwich, everebody asks everybody else to aine men was it that Freas nominated Forney for Governor, auJ we have now, in leaded columns, the exact terms in which the tempting ' offer of the Germantown Mark Antony was declined. It is a military correspondence, too, for it h tolonti Forney writing to M-nor I'reas veterans of the same era aud the same array Wellington writing to uagian after a dm cer at Apsley Hoiue. Freas thinks no oue better than Forney to promote the common weal. Forney, with an air alike bacchana lian and vulpine, declares that for him 'the gubernatorial graphs are not sonr," for be never cared for them; and bo the Governcrshpp of ; Pennsylvania actually goes a-tegging. Mr. Forney thinks that for edi tors to apire to or hold office is a fatal mis take; and surely he ought to know. He tried once to be' United States Senator, and his old friend and patron, Mr. Buchanan, indorsed him. ' He wished to be Postmaster-General, but - the same old friend was not quite so plaint, lie was for years Clerk of the House of Representatives rand a very good clerk too and then was exalted to the Secretary. ship of the Senate. Ilia views of duty in this last function; he thus describes in the letter to Freasi "I have tried the experiment (of holding: office) to the fall, and found it irksome and laborious always My lust was that of being Secretary of tn Senate of tli United - States and editor of the Washington Chimiiclt and Philadelphia while Johnson was under trial -on the articles of Impeachment. I wrote precisely as I would have written out of office, and was nnder a strong fire front and rear all the time. One of the Johnson Senators . reproached me for mv temerity, and 1 replied admit It Is somewhat irreverent ior tne beorstarj or the Senate to attack Andrew Johnson, and to question the gracious Senators who are trvinir to save him: bat itwnnid be cowardly and bate In the editor of the Chronicle and Press If he refused to discharge his duty to him self and his country, as he understands It'" The court of impeaohment was a crave body, and its scribe he who "wrote down what the thunders uttered ' was a sworn, and supposed to be responsible, publio officer. vv nat, -let us ask, would nave been thought of the clerk of Recorder. Hackett's court if he had employed his leisure or devoted his time to denounce, in print and in advanoe, Daniel McFarland as a murderer and the jury as "trying to save him ?" . A President on his trial with Senators to judge him is, according to the new Freas doctrine, a mere trifle in comparison, and it would have been "base" in the editorial clerk not to do his best to forestall justice ! Let us congratulate Penn sylvania - on escaping a tripartite sort of Governor Cerberus "three gentlemen at once" one who would write messages and editorials, squibs, and vetoes, and subordi nate the executive function to the two dailies. In the larger part of Mr. Forney's homily to the press we concur, and we think we detect in the concluding passage a confession of disap pointment as to President Grant, which, we doubt not, is entirely genuine: . ; "Let . us . not forget that we are forever maklnsr treat men out of small material, and that, If a very little share of the space riven to assaults upon men of our own profession were given to the cultivation or a, gooa unaersianaing in business ana social affairs among ourselves, the number of nobodies In office - would diminish, and the editor would no longer be disfranchised by his readiness to Br at his brother's throat and his willingness to help inferiority into superior position." i A PLAGUE OF FOG. From the N. F. Times. . : ."' " ' ' . Aristophanes, when he put a certain invo cation into the mouth of Socrates, must have been under the influence of some such me teorological conditions as those to which, for several weeks past, New York has been sub jected. In - the "leafy month of June" we might, without over-sanguine anticipations, have looked for a fine day or two; but we have thus far been treated to little more than "a foul and pestilent congregation of vapors." The protracted fog and the never-ending drizzle are teaching us, in ' a word, what it is customary to regard as at once the main English incentive to ennui and excuse for suicide, Aristophanes makes even the cloudes themselves so exasperated with the dull, encircling mists, that they propose to scatter and dissolve them, to the end that they may ."show themselves to the earth in their immortal beauty." The Greek satirist may have been . a little uncertain in his science, but he had a just conception of the effect of fogs and mist upon the spirits and temper of mankind. These are elastic, as he knew, and with an occasional relief from pressure, return with ease to their normal cheerfulness. But when, as of late on our Atlantic seaboard, days and weeks follow each other enlivened by the scantiest and most transient gleams of sunshine, and be stowing as staple weather a succession of dismal fogs, relieved by 'steady down-pour, Aristophanes may have doubted, as we do. whether there might not be a limit to human endurance. There is a melancholy consolation in re flecting that others have passed through worse vicissitudes than those which have lately disturbed ourselves. In London one expects to hear of dense fogs as matters of course, so that aocounts of extraordinary phenomena of the sort that reach us, as oc curring in. that city, excite little wonder or attention. But even in beautiful Paris such things now and then have been. An old journal of the reign of Henry - IU, published m French, says that "on Sunday, the 24th of January, l;b, there rose over the City of Paris and its environs bo dense a fog, lasting from noon until the next day, as never was seen before within the memory, of man. . It was so black and thick that two persons walk- ins together in the street could not see each other, and were compelled to provide them selves with torohes, in order to recognize one another, when it was not yet 8 o clock. Very many wild gee6, and other flying creatures of the air, were found where they had fallen bewildered in the court-yards of the houses. having dashed themselves against the build ings and the chimneys." This was nothing. however, to the great fog of 1783, which spread all over Europe and lasted for some thing like two months; or to the fogs at Lima, which are said to have ' lasted in some in stances for half- a year. : In . the latter city. however, it seldom or never rains, so that the fog, by moistening the soil and preserving the freshness of the vegetation, is a blessing and not an unmitigated annoyance. Some philosophers tells us that we ought to find comfort in our recent affliction, in the probability that it is . caused by the Gulf Stream, which, by being deflected nearer and nearer to the American eoast, is grada ally altering the climate, and making it mild and soft, like that of the southwestern coun ties of England. But thoso who have been off Newfoundland will have an uneasy an prehension that the climate of that damp lo cality, rather than of Torquay or Bourne mouth, is what such a change would bring us; and certainly late experience gives color to the fear: The theory that we are indebted for our obstinate visitor to the proximity of icebergs is plausible enough in a. scientific sense, although not corroborated by inoom in g ships. In either .case, the, grounds for congratulation are slight, since en both by potheses we can only look to be made un comfortable without . any visible correspond ing advantage, .. A third possible cause is even less agreeable to contemplate. We .know that the phenomenon is produoedty the meeting of two currents of air of une qual temperature. It is oonceivaole, then, if not probable, that by some as . yet mys terious process two such currents have established a constant friction in the neigh borhood, so that our atmosphere may be reduced to a state of chroma mur&ineis, and fogs be w ith us much more frequently than we have been acoastomed to see them heretofore. Lieutenant De Haven, of the United States navy, during his expedition in search of hir John franklin, saw, we are tol1 northern extremity of . Wellington Channel he beheld a dense fog-bank, motionless and suspended in the air a "water-sky," rising above the Polar Sea discovered by Dr. Kane in 1854. ' Very much such a sky seems of late , to have hovered over New .York, and we can only still cling to the hope .that we' shall get rid of it before the fall season fairly Bets in. Tbe French always associate London with melancholy vapors, and the weeping sky typi- lies for them the conventional gloom of tne English character. When the choice drama of Jack aJirppard was adapted and brought out at the J'orte St. Martin the principal scenes being in the .London streets it was christened Lea CMvnliera d la DrouiQardi- The Knights of the 'Fog and dun-colored gauzes were stretched aoross the stage to give proper effect to trie action. If the atmosphere, of New York does not quickly change (or the better, we shall eventually eclipse the well- won reputation of London, and usurp in the estimation of tne lively Uaul the place she has hitherto occupied. The capital of perfidious Albion will no longer be to his mind the syno nym of sadness and weariness of spirit the distinction will be fairly wrested away by the foggy triumphs of Manhattan. CONGRESS RAILROAD JOBS THE . CUBAN. LOBBY INVESTIGATION. tram the K.Y. BeraUL , . Railroad jobs occupied more than their share of attention in the Senate on Friday. Mr. Pomeroy moved to take up the bill granting a land subsidy to the central branch of the Union Paoifio Railroad. Mr. Thayer opposed the motion, and wanted to know the reason for this pressure to take up .this bill, when it was almost impossible to get any other 'bill in the morning, hour. Another reason Mf. Thayer bad for opposing the. mo tion was that be bad a similar bill to intro duce, which clashed with that of . Mr. Pome roy. The bill to abolish then franking privi lege was taken up and discussed by Messrs. Morrill and Sumner, the latter opposing it as being destructive ana not constructive a crude, raw measure, full of faults and opposed to the interests of the people. An evening session was held, at which a bill was reported appropriating fifty thousand dollars as pay ment of 'the expenses of Spotted Tail and Red Cloud and their -euiteS daring their visit to Washington and for the purchase of .pre sents for these savages. The House, with the astuteness rightfully ' attributed to that body, dropped all publio business for a while to look after a newspaper correspondent who had inadvertently ma ligned Representative Fitch, of Nevada, by giving a synopsis of the testimony sworn to by JN. B.Taylor before General Butler s Cuban Investigating Committee. After venting a vast deal of. unnecessary spleen upon the press in general and the New York correspon dents in particular, the House resolved to expel the obnoxious member from the re poi tors' gallery, and accordingly the Ser-geant-at-Arms placed the unlucky correspon dent at the bar of the ' House, where; after being lectured by the Speaker," he was called upon for his defense. The defense appeared to put a new face upoa the matter, and in stead of expelling the correspondent the House referred. the subject to a special committee for investigation. Friday's vote tabling Mr. Davis' .Naturalization bill was reconsidered and .the bill, recommitted to the Judiciary Committee. The House pro ceeding to consider the Senate amendments to the Legislative,; Executive, and Judicial Appropriation bill, Mr. Dawes called atten tion to the fact that said amendments were two hundred and fifty-six in number, all of them, with two or three exceptions, adding to the amount appropriated, including five hundred thousand dollars to commence work on the new State Department, to cost over six million dollars. The amendment exclud ing from the Court of Claims all persons who had participated in the Rebellion, notwith standing their having obtained pardons, was disagreed to, and a substitute adopted ex cepting the cases when such pardon or amnesty was granted during the Rebellion by President Lincoln. It is to be hoped that the House will adhere to its substitute. The amendment of the Senate was ex post facto in its character, and wholly unworthy a place upon the statute book. - THE McFARLAND DIVORCE CASE. . From the AT. Y. Sun, - In proceeding to obtain' a reopening of the Indiana suit in which Mrs. Ale arland ob tained her pretended divorce from him Mr. JlcFarland has done just what self-respect and conscious integrity would have dictated. The ostensible ground for granting the' di vorce was his intemperance and cruel treat ment of hie wife. He has all along denied that be was either a man of intemperate habits or guilty of any unworthy acts as a husband. He now shows his confidence in his ability to prove the falsehood of the charges against him by demanding a new investigation of these charges under circumstances which can not fail to insure the elucidation of the truth in regard to them. . That his application for a rehearing will be successful ought not to be in the least doubt ful. There is no question but that the former bearing was conducted under circumstances which throw great suspicion upon its fair ness and good faith. Mr. McFarland never was personally informed of the proceed ings against nim, ana tne utmost pains were taken to keep him ' in ignorance. The notice to him required by law to be published in a newspaper was indeed printed in a newspaper of Morgan oounty, but in a special edition, and every oopy of that ' edi tion, it is alleged, was bought np and sup pressed, so that the publication never really took place. - At all events, no proof of the publication can now be found. -The trial was held at night, and in a manner intended to secure privacy; and Mr. McFarland asserts tbat the principal witness against him, Mrs, Calhoun, committed perjury in giving her testimony. Whether or not he succeeds in establibhins his assertion, it is quite oertain that this witness ought to be required to tes tify again, when be is present with his coun sel to cross-examine her, and test the aoou racy of her statements in the manner which long experience has shown to be indispen sable to the attainment of justice. Still more should he be allowed to bring forward wit- nessesju his own behalf, aud to submit to tbe Caurt all the facta upon which a just der cision can alone be rendered. It is to be remarked, too, that should the case be reopened as he asks, and should he co on and appear lu future proceedings, Mr, McFarland will waive all right to dispute the jurisdiction of the Court, and, if a decree should Le again rendered against him, it wilt probably be sustained by the courts of this -Mate. . 11 u wife, therefore, if she is as ooun dent of the justice of -her cause as she pro fesses to be, cannot refuse to join with him in bis petition, aud agree to abide tha result of the new tual.
