There has been a good deni of correspondence recently in the papers on what is anrely a most neprostabic question--whether American or English publishere are the worst pirates. The neglect of the American Government in agr ing to an international copyright treaty with England is quite refrirly, we think, converted into an nitakapon American pabljabers who republish without payment, or with caly little payment, to the Buglist author. Nataeally American publishers and authors retaliate by pointing to the 'depredations of English pub
elers upon Amerio authors in the smaller number of noses widre an opportunity has been ofered them. All this writing is very mol beside the question, Cloarly as long as there is no empyright, an English author has nothing to sell to un American publisher, nor an American author to an English pablisher: and it is like orying over split milk to complain that authore suffer by the pincy which is permitted. The American Go- vernment is the great culprit, but the coin plaints of American authors should open our yes to the very illogical course bieb we par que in making the rights of foreign authors in this country depend upon the action of the Gefang bo trevelling merchant vernment of which thoy are subjects in conce ding copyright privileges to English author. The two things we submit, bave no connection with each other. If copyright, as we believe it to be, is very similar is, ita inture to other. richte of property, we should cogeeds it to all alike, foreigners as well as En dishuzen, no mat- ter what foreign. Governments may do Be chase they will not do justice to English au" thors, we do not mend matters by daingin- justice to foreign authors, If copyright, on
