The inis- take thade was that the coltmns of the papers were forsale by the columnor the puge, which he thought was an error {in fournal- ism, and from which he went on to compare thefr pages to n wall covered with show-billy, and to urge that every newspaper needed a barkeeper to prevent advertisers taking too much space.

It was not to be supposed that McDonald, sitnated ns he fs at present, with guubling cut loose throughout the city, could afford to fight the Administration in any one par tleulnr, and It is only to be Inferred that, if thore hag been a compromise,the concessions made in order to bring it about were not made by the Mayor.

The delegation also juterfered with all others who propused to continue to work atthe old price of -Beents. The owner of the Hawk’s Nest Mines being thus obstructed in the legitimate prosecution of hig business, and continued obstruction being threatened, {nformed- hia Excellency the Governor of this Wegal and disorderly Interference with hy WaLnESSs and appealed for old and the enforcement o} the laws in his bolialf.
