IMONPAT. NOVEMBER 12, 1800.
John Morrissey and Hi" Boy.
Jobs Mobhiskey, the celebrated gambler
and prize-fighter, was elected to Congress
from one of tbe overwhelmingly "Demo
cratic" districts in New York city, at the late
election. During the campaign be wrote a
letter to the Herald acknowledging that he '
had been a pretty hard cafe in days gone by,
but asserting that he was endearoilng to lead
a more reputable lite, and that ho was espe
cially anxious concerning his reputation,
on account of his son, whom he was now
educating at the first Institutions of the
country.
John seemed to think that if he could once
write "M. C." after his name, all the memory
of the faro bank and of the prize-fighter's
ring would fade away from men's minds, and
his "boy" would grow up in delight tul uncon
sciousness of his father's true character. We
fear he has taken just the step to perpetuate
all these memories, and to make them tenfold
more ylrid. It is quite likely that Conttri-ss,
before it gives so notorious a man a John
Morrissey a seat among its members, may
appoint a committee to investigate his past
career, and the means by which he secured his
nomination and election. Suppose It should
appear from the report of that committee that
he had been a notorious prize-fighter; that he
had been, time and again, indicted for assault
and battery with intent lo kill, burglary, and
other crimes; that he had served a term In
prison ; that he had amassed his fortune by
keeping a gambling-lious : and that he had
paid a very larjre sum of money for hLs nomi
nation and election. Suppose all this should
appear, and should go upon the records of
Congress, would not the "boy" think, as in
alter years he should look over the perpetu
' ated public evidonce of his father's character,
that be had much better huv been couteut to
remain in private life ?
Mr. Morrissey's solicitude that his reputa
tion shall appear lair in toe eyes of his son
is quite natural, but he has taken a queer
method of showing it. The private lives of
public men are ordinarily treated with great
delicacy and reserve in this country; but
when a man is simply notorious for some of
the worst vices that corrupt the community,
it is expecting too much that the public shall
cast the mantle ef lorgetfulness over his past
career when he seeks honorable and respon
sible public stations. On the contrary, the
election of such a man may well be held ud
as a warning to the country of the depths of
infamy to which a once great and powerful
party has fallen. Johu Morrissey is a repre
Hentative man of the New York city Demo
cracy, ihat power which has rendered the
first city in America a byword and a re
proach to tree institutions. As such, his
presence in Congress may be of use to the
public ; but we doubt whether it will conduce
particularly to relieve the "boy" ot the odium
attach in c to his father's tame.
Our Means of Information.
Oub readers have doubtless noticed that there
has been trouble in the wigwam of the Asso
ciated Press. Mr. D. H. Craig, for many
years manager of the old Associated Tress
nas discontinued his connection with that
organization, and, aided by other agents
throughout the country, has set up a new
Associated Press. We are glad that such
has been attempted. The aim of the
New York Associated Press was to make
the newspapers of America subordinate to the
press of New York city, and everything was
sacrificed to the metropolis. But the other
papers not situated In the Empire City grew
disgusted, and Mr. Craig states that he also
became dissatisfied ; and the result is a rivalry
between the two. Competition always pro
duces good effects, and we therelore expect
to see a marked improvement. In order to
give our readers the benefit of all channels of
Information, we have made arrange ments by
which we shall for the present receive the
news from both organizations. Reform is
much needed, and we hope that the hour for
it has at length arrived.
The Spikit of the Sooth. Elsewhere
In our paper will be tound a card from J. P.
Hambleton, of Georgia, in which he an
, nounces hlmsolt as a candidate ior the Con
gress ot the United States, nis tone but
typifies the general feeling of the recon
structed South. No regret, no pledge simply
resumption ot power in the Government they
sought to destroy. This man Hambleton was
the one who published the names of Philadel
phia and New Yoik merchants as a "black
Kst" during the Rebellion, in order that all
their Southern property might be confiscated.
Wnile such traitors flaunt their treason in
the 8outb, all claims for aid or recognition
by the North will fall on ears deaf to all argu
ments or entreaties.
Cheap Cabs. The New Yorkers are agi
tating tor a cheap cab system, and have
tlre&dy organized a chartered company to
carry u out The rates authorized by the
charter are twenty-five cents a passenger for
any distance less than three miles, and twenty
live cents tor each additional mile; also the
same rate for trunks not exceeding twohun
dred pound In weight. A similar system
baa long bees la vogue la London.

Latfb returns from Missouri show the r
elcctioa of Colonel U. T. Van Horn, Repub
lican, from the Sixth Congressional District,
instead of Birch, Democrat, as at first re
ported. The Sixth has hitherto beta one of
the strongest pro-slavery districts In the
State, including the counties of Jackson,
Clay, Lafayette, and others which constituted
the old bordor ruffian stronghold in the early
days of the Kansas warfare, and which were
the headquarters ot Rebel guerillas during
the war. Van Horn was elected in 1804
through the division of bis opponents, the
Democrats running two candidates in opposi
tion to him. This fall he beats the combined
forces of the Democracy handsomely. Ilia
district has received very henvy aeeeions of
Northern emtgrauU during the bit two
years .

The annual messaze ot Governor Brownlow.
of Tennessee, will be found in our paper
to-day. He takes eround distinctly and
strongly in lavor of extending the elective
franchise to the colored citizens of Tennessee,
quoting from the declarations of President
Jobnson in favor of such a policy. He savs
that the colored people have shown a greater
aptitude lor learning and intelligence than
was expected, and by their crood conduct and
steadfast loyalty have won upon the respect
of the wh'te race.
He congratulates the oeonle ur;n the result
of the elections, and is throughout severe
upon the President.
Fob Mexico. Lieutenant-General Sher
man and Hon. L, D. Campbell, our new
Minister to Mexico, left New York on Satur

take strong ground on the Mexican question.
THE ASSOCIATED PRES3 SQUABBLE.
A fierce quarrel is no goim on between ihp tin.
posed Superintendent of the Associaied rres. L.
M. Craig, and ihe Sew York general management
01 that organization. The Association cuarges mis
management and inefficiency upon Craig, and the
latter alleges that the Association baa ''outlived its
UBolullieM;" and he announce? that he haaoro-anlznd
an opposition association which will furnish news
more cheaply and satisfactorily. Whoever may be
at lault, Craig or the executive committee, it is
certain that the newspaper ot the country have had
trreat reason for complaint. The wretched ouni.
ling, or worse, in regard to cable news, is a familiar
grievance.
The Associated Pi ess a irenta had cot u aimnniii
in tact, that the papers outside of Keir York uad
iretty much riven ud the idea of art-mmr m. r,,,.
on the same day of its occurrence. Coring auce, on
aucsuuv lost me timi 01 t-.e voting was so apparent
in New York city that tie afternoon nanoi-ant that
city gave returns ot what Uonuressmeu wore elected,
with a tally of the state of tne vote lu different
waras. i et tne associated rres failed to send a
line even te indicate that an election was going on
there.
Yesterday not word was vouchsafed br thi
Associated Pres agent in Baltimore as to tut pro
ceedings in ihe case of tbe imprisoned fo ice Com
missioners, a matter 01 treat interest here, ihe
mismunagrment of the Philadelphia office has been
a feub.lcct of complaint amongst nwauuiMr mm inr
a leng time. Yet Mr. Craig, or whoever is respon
sible, seems to have made no ofl'oit to nunniti tia
evil.
Ihe country press, which i now paying at tns
rate of 976,000 per annum to the &ew York a solu
tion, ba.4 had no voice wha'ever in its management,
and any complaints or remonstrance has been an
fwered by an insolent threat to cu' off the reports
altogether from the journal complaining. Ve are
plan, therefore, to see a wholesome competition
threatened bv this movement of Mr. Crai. and hooe
that both organizations may bo kept up. as the nre'S
