DUEBORROW & Hunt ingdi BLAINE'S DINNER PARTY. It is with sincere pleasure we inform our readers that the story of Speaker Dhtine's Sunday dinner party is without foundation. It on in a Demne atic Sunday paper published in Washington, D. C., by Don Piatt, of Ohio, who rarely issues a paper in which tha President, or members of the Cabinet, or other public officer 3, is not attacked, abused. or misre presented. After the Sunday dinner story had time to be copied and ,irenlated over the Union, Don Piatt, in Lie own paper, made the following retraction , 'CoItRECTION.—In our lea inue we spoke of a dinner !dirty being given by Speaker Elaine on Sunday. at which the President, Cabinet, and other distinguished guests were present. We cheerfully state that we were in error. Tito dinner referred to was In honor of Minister Washburne, and was on Saturday and not on Sunday. Any paper that may have copied our previous item will blear us by noting this COrreetion as a taaavr of jostlee to the Speaker." We hope the Republican press generally will do Mr. Blaine the justice to cAttra diet this false story of the. oppsition, started, no doubt, not only to injure him per ovally, but to bring the Republican party into disrepute. HON. JOHN SCOTT. As we stated a few weeks ego, this gen tleman has been named in cc•nuection with a seat in the Cabinet with President Grant, by many of the papers and people of our State, and all agree, that ho would make en able and faithful Cabinet minister, and one that would reflect honor on the admin istration. But., while he fully appreciates the kindness of his friends, who have made the suggestion, in various quarters, he is nut at all desirous to be transferred fr, m the Senate to the Cabinet, but prefers his service in the Senate during the term for which he has been elected. Although his friends will regret this decision, yet all will admit that his place in the Senate would be bard to fill by another of equal talent and capability.—Hollidaygurg Reg ister. A TRIAL 07 50 YEARS The New York aiserver has passed through the ordeal, and starts out anew on the second fifty years with a larger list ()Treaders and more numerous friends than ever. Such a steady course of prosperity is unexampled, and inspires confidence. We heartily rejoice in the great success ol a piper which has always advocated th , se sound principles that underlie the founda tions of society and good government. Orthodox in the truest sense, b.ith in Church and State, its influence is always good.

Joh❑ Scutt will please accept our thanks for several public documents Opt are invelnable to the printer, ova OWN STATE AND ITS MON WEALTH. It ia a significaLt and a well antiicatien ted fact that Pennsylvania is tar-day mak• lag, from native 4,1%., mare inn thin it E laron produced by the combined furnaces of England and the continent of Europe : i•sylvania is monarch of the wcrlil in !wench of industry, and when we take ;„,..: account the inexhaustible supply of t 7 te essentials, ore, coal and limestone, and their c!ose• prox'tniiy to each other, and couple these ficilities with the enterprise of our people. it is reasouable to predict that we shall,,for generations, if not for centuries to come, continue in advance all other States and even Nations in the production of this indi-pensible article in the progress of the arts and commerce. Oar wealth in iron cannot be vomited, not even estimated. It is almost boundless. Uo th bush the ceuuty of Ilul.tingthin. p ,, ss through the hills of Central and the of E:istern Pennsylvania and every where these great belts of iron ore, coal and liwestene abound. Everywhere on the mountain sides and the valleys- fur• naces arc in full blasts. Others are being erected, and capital is eig,rly seeking in vestment in those profit ibis enterprises Rails° ids are pushed into the interior um ing the faro ices and the transportation of pigs and blooms afford them busy and ramunerative employment. Lehigh Val ley is pi-odming iinnomse supplies, whi:e the Schuylkill and Lebanon Valleys vie in the conip.t ti m. and the whole country around is covered with furnaces and forges blowing and roaring , smelting and mould. ing pig iron night and day. So wonderfully has the amount of the product increased 11 at to-day our supply is nearly d ruble what it was a year ago, and is daily ilicr-asing. Yet the supply is scarcely equal to the demand. Uithei to the United States depended upon England fir a large portion of the yearly consump tion or iron. Now Pennsylvania is sup plying the United States markets, and England has ceased to ship iron to this country. And not only this, America is now shipl.ing iron to England and has made it a profitable market for our surplus product. England's supply of native ore is nearly exhausted, while our treasures in that line have only just began to be un locked and drawn from their native beds. England is now receiving most of its ore from Spain, let coal supply too is de creasing, while the article is risen in prices until "carrying coal to Newcastle" has be came a paying business, and the supply now going from this country is quite large. These astounding facts must, at no dis te.ut day, change the whole current of e..notnerce. England's day for building iron ships, at paying rates, is passing away, while ours is just commencing. Pig iron can now be, and is produced in Pennsylva nia at a first cost of from $l3 to $l7 per t in. according to location and facilities f,r operating the furnaces; yet the great demand keeps the prices up and the prof its are large. Bit the rapidity with wt.ich the supply is increasing, through the large iecrease of capital and enterprise drawn into the business, will eventually bring the cost within limits th it will make the con struction of iron ships ono of our most profitable branches of industry. Add to this the improvements now . being intro duced in the construction of iron ships in this country over thlse built abroad, and we have a guarantee that, in a very firm years, the United States will be the most extensive iron ship-building country in the world. Protection has done more for our iron interests than its mist sanguine advocates ever dreamed off and if for nothing else the late Horace Greeley, in his able and persistent efforts to enlighten the people on this important economy, will ever be held as a public beneftetor, r g 7" - 171 I I I 5 I 14 00 5 00 12 00 3 10 2 00 3 25 3 00 4 50 4 GO 5 00 aft, CO., Jo, Pa, COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. J. R. Durborrow of the Ilunt:ngdonl Journal, last week, gave the Commission ers of Huntingdon County a sharp talk on their miserly and outrageous conduct in regard to the county printing. The cent missioners gave hint their work knowing '1 his prices and when he presented his bill they offered him one-third. As a matter of course he refused this pittance, which would not pay his journeyman fur setting the advertiseuteuts, and sued the commis sioners. We pity the county that has such a set of skinflints for commissioners. We wonder hblv many of them, if they had sold their wheat at the regular price, would like to accept one third that price as pay, from the purchaser several months afterward? Yet this is just what they asked the editor of the Journal to accept. Huntingdon never had a respectable paper until Mr. Durborrow took hold of the Journal sod enlarged it and improved it and made it such n county paper as no county in the state need re ashamed of Printers are poor enough and work hard' en ;ugh for a scanty living and ought not to be asked to do county went: fur half its cost, If Huntingdon is too poor or too miserly t) pay her printers the same rates for work that private persons pay she don't deserve to have a newspaper of any kind. We don't believe however that the people of Huntingdon county approve of the proceedings of their Commissioners. One thing we are sure of though, and that is that even if they do pay the editor of the Journal his full rates fur printing, they will never half remunerate him for the good work he has cl.ne for the county in elevating and improving the character of its newspapers---BediOrd inquirer, ,lam The trial and conviction of the city editor of the Philadelphia, Press fur we believe, will have a beneficial effect. No greater outrage has been perpetrated upon the profession ofjournalisto for years, and the public indignantion which has ex hibited itself, will no doubt revolutionize the law upon th a subject.

WASHINGTON, P. C., Dec. 26, '72.. THE PO4TAL TELD;RAPH IN CoNGEE,I4: The Postmaster General in his Annual Reports. Cur three year: pint, has taken strong grounds in savor of putting the telegr ph wholly under the control of the Government. The leading argument in favor of this measure is that the telegraph would then be operated in the intetests of the people, by a reduction of charges to less than half the present average rates, whereas it is now controlled in the inter• ests of Private Corporations and monopo lies. Tile Ptstmaster General urges the purchase of the present lines if they can be obtained on flor terms; but if nut, he then recommends the erection of new lines. which can be done fitr $1a,000.000; ma king the lines as extensive and more effi. Meta than those now in u,e. It is getter. ally known that all the principa. lines are controlled by the _Wes; ern Union Telegraph Company, of which the Han. ‘Villion Or ton, formerly Commission,r of Intern d Revenue. is President. Mr. Ort. , n is op p .sing the Government scheme with all the influence he can bring_ to bear ttioni the question.

He is not ready to do so - , nor is at believed th it Ge,rge William Cum . , will undertake the editorship on th use cond:tions. But the Tribune is out in op positiat to the Government plan. It states that the telegraph lines of the c aunty could not be replaced f , r 1...9s than $238. 000.000. The hizliest estan cot hitherto was $30,000 000, and resp msible e ottractors stand ready to put up ten tines for 810,000,000, with all the (Till, ments of the latest and best type complete. A NEW POSTAI. TEI.EGRAPII SCIIENIE. The pin of the Po4niaster General is to put tile telegraph wholly under the con trol of the Government. as fully as tho. mails are now under that control But he Senate Committve on NA Offices and Po't Roads hive reported a bill wilich firs front the Postmaster's plan. A siiiii• lir bill b,s been r.ported to the Muse, and after the holidays the question will b.- thoroughly debated and prob ibly. with slight mod.fieutions, tite bills now bef ire Congress will be made the basis of a law authorizing the new arrangement to be carried into effect. The new postal tele graph bill proposes the org mization of a company, (giving the names of the incor porators), to build new lines to he worked in the intereits and under the limited con trol of the Government. By this bill the Pestmaster General is required as soon as practicahle to establish telegraph offices at all post offices on telegraphic circuits, and at all other past offices within ten utiles of any circuit where the salary is not les, than $3OO per annum, and ac such other places as the w.tnts of business may re quire. The charge for the transaiLsian of telegrams shall be uniform for equal distances, at a rate not exceeding one cent per word thr each circuit through which they shall be transmitted. to be compiled as Wows : For distances under 500 miles. 250 miles shall be deemed a circuit; fur any excess 500 miles shall be deemed a - circuit; for eight messages 10 i 0 or less shall be deemed a circuit. All words are to be counted. and no communication shall be transmitted at a rate less than twenty five cents for each circuit. These rates cover the cost of delivery within a mile of the office, o r within the letter-carrier de livery, and of tratism'ssion by mail when received at or destined forany place where there is no postal telegraph office; but when the addressee lives more than one mile from the office, or beyond said 17eliv ery. each telegram shill be delivered through the usual letter delivery, or by special messenger, upon payment of a just. and proper sant, to be fixed by the Post master. General, Government Departments and officials to have priority in the transmission of tel egrams. All other messages shall be sent in the order of their reception, ex..ept night utwisages. Charges to be prep iid by stamps. The money-order system is to be adapted to the telegraphic. Rates for special dispatches to newspapers, fir each one hundred words or less, for each circuit of 500 miles, shall not exceed 75 cents if sent by night. and $l,OO by day; but when copies of the same dispatch are drop ped off at one or wore offices, the rate at each office 411411 not exceed 50 cents by night, and 75 cents by day, and at the saute rate for each word in excess. Rates for Press A.ssociltions are not to exceed th se now paid by the Associated or Am erican Press for similar services. A post age of 5 cents shall be paid on each pre,s dispatch. A Fourth Assistant Postmaster General is to be appointed. to exercise a general supervision over the administration of the telegraph. The Postmaster General is authorized to contract with the Postal Telegraph Com piny for the transmission of correspon dence by telegraph, as his agent, for the term of ten years, according to the provi sions of the act ; and the .c mpany shall have the right to a instruct lines on all post routes and provide lines ,if telegraph t eve - 7 postal telegraph offiae. In case the company shalt fail to perform the ser vice according to the provisions of con tract, the Postmaster Ginner:ll may take Rissesaio4 of said lines of telegraph and conti act with some other party instead, and charge to said compiny any loss that may accrue. Fine and imprisonment are to be imposed for violations of conlilence or hindrance of transmission. The capital stock of said Comp-my shall. at. its nrgauiz aim' consist of 10,unu shares of $lOO each, to be paid up in cash, which capital stock may be increased by au amount legal, at its par val le, to the cost of lines of telegraph purchased by the Company thereafter, end by amounts equal to the actual cost of such lines as it may from time to time construct. If any tel egraph company at actual operation in the dateof the enactment ofthe bill smell within one year offer to sell its carporate property to this company, it shall pnrchise such property at a valuation to be fixed by five disinterested persons, two to be named by the Postmaster General, two by the sellsr, and one by the fbur thus selected. The company is authorized to establish and maintain offices independent of those es tablished by the Postmaster General, and any postmaster may act as operator with the assent of the Postmaster General The Company may also make special contracts with railroad companies, and also with per sons or associations for the use of wires for transmission of comercial news, be.
