Baltimore, December 1. Th new Surveyor
Ot the rort, William Wales, of the Contmercia' ,
entered en his duties this morning, vice E. Ful
ton, of the American, removed. Deputy Sur
veyor Farker, also removed, rnd Robert Cath
cart appointed In his place. There are indica
tions of a general removal of subordinates.
Mr. Fulton was the last of the supporters of
Congress In the Baltimore Custom House, and
the above subordinates were all of the same
clafp.
Considerable interest is manifested in the
mercantile and newspuper world as to the tele
graphic contest between the old Associated
Press and Mr. Cra'g's new organization. The
conrse of the American, in refusion to submit to
the exclusive orders of the old Association, is
highly approved, and tha superiority of the des-
patches lurnished by the ne Association is
generally admitted. Their old-fogy notions
will not suit the present progressive age.
A colored artist named William II. 3nnpson

iect, and the execution is very tine.
