They fire into what they describe as his “expansive shirt front” and pin his coat tails down with quips. This sort of thing amuses, but it does no harm. Nine times out of ten it is not intended to injure. The really effective joker is not malicious. He oftener helps to make than to break a public man, and works with that conscious- ness.

Bailey is young, but in our affairs no n of thirty-five, with half a dozen years of conspicuous public service to his credit, is to be bowled out on that charge. Young men have always cut a figure with us. The government was founded by young men: and one of the greatest of achiev ments, the organization of the Treasury Depart- ment, was the work of a man of thirty-two. It is urged that Mr. Bailey lacks wisdom. Suppose Mr. Bailey were to turn and de- mand en accounting of his party as at at The American commissioners are standing to their guns, as was to be ex- pected.

This library opened on the 10th instant, at 1326 New York ave- nue, and it is to be hoped that our citizens will extend very liberal aid by subscrip- tiens of money and of books.
