There is scarcely a charitable enterprise to which it is not asked to contribute of its space, which is nvmcy, ten times more than any other person in the community who are ten times as able as the owner of the newspaper to contribute. The journal is considered "mean" if it will not surrender its columns to notices and anuntmce-ments of this sort. If a manager has a new hen coop or a new singer he wishes to introduce to the public, he comes to the newspaper, expecting to have his enterprise extolled for nothing, and probably never thinks it would be just an proper tor him to jjotu one of tho regular advertisers in the paper and ask him lo give up his space.

Heud for price Hat. plaints about the magnilicetit Kast river bridge which, after fifteen years' work ami expenditure, still remains uncompleted. Tbe expenditure on it up to Ibis time has been aoid this does not represent its entire cost, for it is staled that If in bonds has been issued bv the two cities for bridge work by Now York and by Brooklyn.

The issue of these bonds began in and as the interest on the whole amount is about a day, the bridge debt ami payments cannot he far from 17,000,000. Tho structure ws estimated tu cost at a height of M) feet. The elevation was reduced to Kio feel, but, strange to say, this reduction of the difficulty of the undertaking has made it cost five limes the original estimate. Some dny or other tho noble structure will be completed, but when and at how much additional cost no one seems able to tell. I Jut tho ijuestion is now presented, wht.t shall be done with it when it fini-lied? It will be a noble roadway between the two cilies, but, says the l-'inciritd Ciu-Oiiifp, "merely to get across the river will never be worth the bridge." imagines that it will pay directly.

The annual interest on this cost will lie nearly fJ.GnOOiK., in addition lo the cost of managing it and keeping it in repair, and it is admitted that if it be limited lo a mere foot and carriage way between the two cities the tolls will not amount, to this sum. If is proposed, therefore, that it he made part of a scheme for annexing to the metropolis an accessible suburb which it does not now possess. This, it is thought, can be effected by building underground railroads from the Brooklyn side of the bridge to the country beyond the city, bo as to open up to the crowded metropolitans a region where they can have pleasant country homes, and at the same time afford them the means of reaching it in a few minutes. Unless the bridge shall in this way be made part of a system of rapid transit, it will be only a crossing whose cost iB twice as great as its real value.

Write lo Dan asks without hesitation that Ihe newspaper should take up its valuable space by printing hundreds and often thousands of dollars worth of political announcements in the course of a protracted campaign, when it never would think of getting its halls, its speakers, and its brass bands free of expense. Churches, as well aB parties, expect this sort of charity. I have knnivn rich churches, to whose members it was a convenience to have its Sunday and other services announced, withdraw the announcement when the editor declined any longer to contribute a weekly fifty cents' worth of space.

No private person contributes so much to charity, in proportion to ability, as the newspaper. Perhaps it will get credit for this in the next world; it certainly does not in this. The chief function of the newspaper is to collect and print the news; the second is to elucidate the news and comment on it and show its relations; and the third is to furnish reading niatterjto the general public. That news will he liven that the people will be matt interested in, and a success ot tho news printed depends on a prenpprehension of those topics that tho world will be talking about at the time the paper appears. Some papers, which nevertheless print all tho news, are always days behind, do not appreciate the popular drift till it has gone to something else, and err as much by clinging to a sub ject after it is dead as by taking ittip before it was fairly born.

The public craves eagerly for only one Yhing at a time.andsoon wearies of that; and it is to the newspaper's profit to seize the exact point of a debute, the thrilling moment til an accident, the pith of an important discourse, to throw as if life depended upon it, and for the hour to flood the popular curiosity with it, as an engine deluges a fire, and thenews must be presented in an arrangement which will be at once attractive to the eye. Our newspapers are overwhelmed with material that is of no importance. The obvious remedy for this would be more intelligent direction in the collection of news, and more careful sifting and supervision of it when gathered. It becomes every day more apparent to every manager that s.ich discrimination is more necessary. There is no limit lo the various intelligence and gossip that our complex life offers; no paper is big enough to contain it; no reader has time enough to read it.

And the journal must cease to he a sort of waste basket at the end of a telegraph wire, into which any reporter, telegraph operator or gossip monger can dump whatever he pleases. We get rid of the superstition TA (ff'-'inpor-iayathouio. Samples worth 40 U4i.Ufro. Portland. Maine.
