The Evening Telegraph, from Its original establishment, has been in the receipt of telegraphic news from the New York Associated Press, which consists of the Tribune, Times, Herald, World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Post, Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Ex press. The success which has attended our enterprise Is, in itself, a sufficient evi dence of the freshness, fullness, and relia bility of the news which we have received from this source. Last March we entered Into a special contract by which The Evening Telegraph has the exclusive use of the news furnished in the afternoon by the Associated Press to its own members, the North American, Inquirer, Ledger, Press, Age, Record, and German Democrat, of this city, and the leading journals of the East, North, West and South; and hereafter The Telegraph will be the only evening Paper published in this city in which the afternoon despatches of the Associated Press will appear. 3" The earliest regular edition of Thi Evening Teleobaph goes to press at l o'olook, and the subsequent regular editions at ?J, 3, and i. Whenever there is Im portant news of the progress of the Euro pean war, extra editions will be issued after this hoar, and before the regular time for the early edition. TEE FISHERIES QUESTION. The fisheries question, which is expected to engross so much of the attention of the Joint High Commission, involves interests by no means insignificant. The official figures for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1870, show the American fishing fleet to have consisted at that date of 2292 vessels, of 01,400 tons. With the exception of 84 vessels, of 1024 tons, belonging to New York, all these be longed to the five New England States border ing on the Atlantio, Massachusetts owning 1011 of the vessels and Maine 721. During the year ending June 30, 1870, the total catch of the fleet reaohed 807,118 cwt., valued at $4,090,140, divided as follows: Cod, $2,140, 3(3; mackerel, fl,748,o04; herring, $48, 710; and all other kinds, fl52,r.C3. In addition to the fishing fleet whose interests are to be brought before the Joint High Commission, ' there is the whaling fleet, the operations of which will not trouble that auguBt body. The number of vessels employed in the whale fishery last year was 299, with an aggregate tonnage of C7,9o4. Of these, 2C9 vessels belonged to Massachusetts ports, New Bedford, the centre of the whaling interest, owning 20G; of the remainder, 23 belonging to New Lendon, Conn., 3 to Sag Ilarbor, N. Y., and 4 to San Francisco, Cal. The total value of the pro ducts of the whale fishery for the year was $t,970,G31, of which $4,438,491 was cre dited to oil, $"31,797 to bone, and $113 to other products. It will be ob served that the annual products of the whale fishery exceed those of the cod and mackerel fisheries by nearly a million dol lars, and this in the age of defiant gas and kerosene. While the fishing interests are scarcely worth going to war about, they are certainly of sufficient proportions to warrant the taking of a decided stand on the part of the Government of the United States and its representatives in the Joint High Com mission. THE INCOME TAX. A joke on the iniquitous income tax was indulged in by the II ouse of Representatives yesterday afternoon. A motion to suspend the rules and pass a bill repealing this ob noxious imposition was rejected by a vote of M yeas to 11G nays, the result being reoeived with laughter by the House. The House of Representatives has a.veral times during the Congressional t term about to expire ex pressed a willingness to abolish the income tax, while in the Senate its advocates have, until within a few weeks past, been in a ma jority. But suddenly the Senatj took a fancy to the opposite aide of the question, and passed an original bill repealing the tax. Then the House threw itself . on its dignity, and with surprising unanimity aocused the Renate of infringing upon its privilege, nnder the Constitution, of originating all rueasnre affecting the revenue. The matter went to a conference committee, wWe'the whole business was smothered in an Agreement to disagree. For the opponents of th tax to expect to start a repealing bill on the Uat day but one of the session, with the hope of getting it through both houses, was folly, of course, and the Forty-first Congress adjourns Without reliev ing the country of the most obnoioag an,L unequal burden entailed upon us by th war. Each branch of Congress, however, havin expressed a desire to repeal the tax, tu blame of the failure to secure concerted ac tion is thrown back and forth between tua two like a shuttle-cock, and nobody is re sponsible for the failure. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue, meanwhile, has ex hausted his arguments in favor of a repeal of the tax, and delayed his preparations for its collection as long as pos sible; and when he could risk delay no longer, has commenced the distribu tion of the blanks to be used In the assess ment and collection. But, as we are to be in flicted with a session of the new Congress im mediately, that body should at the very out set of its career go about the task of repeal ing the tax on incomes, and in a manner that will convince the country that the movement is a serious one, not intended merely to hoodwink the people, as has been tho appa rent object of all the action taken upon the subject by the expiring Congress. THE MILEAGE ALLOWANCE OF CONGRESSMEN. A hilTj was yesterday passed by the House of Representatives allowing mileage to members of the present Congress who may be returned from States where elections have not been held. Under the existing arrangement mem bers of Congress are entitled to mileage from nnd to their homes for every session; except at the short spring sossion of a new Congress the re-elected members are prohibited from drawing mileage for journeys they have not performed. If we admit the propriety of the present mileage regulations, the bill passed yesterday will appear perfectly unobjection able, as some of the elections referred to will not take place for several weeks, and the members of the present Congress who are candidates for re-election cannot be expected to remain in Washington in the expecta tion of such a fortunate event, and if they go home they will be entitled to mileage after they return to Washington. The fact is, however, that Con gressional mileage, as at present regulated, is, like the franking privilege, an open and barefaced swindle upon the tax-payers of the country. Every unprejudiced person will admit that members of Congress, officers of the army and navy, and all others who travel upon public business, should receive such an allowance as will enable them to perform their journeys like gentlemen. The mileage should be liberal enough to cover all reasonable expenses, but anything beyond this is a wrong against which the tax-payers have a right to protest. There is a praotioal admission that the Congressional mileage laws are improper in the fact that Congress has established entirely different regulations for the army and navy. An officer of the army or navy cinnot draw his mileage unless he actually performs a journey upon public business, and an allowance of ten cents per mile is judged sufficient to enable him to travel in the best style, and still to leave a margin of profit; in other words, ten cents per mile is as liberal as such an allow ance should be, and it will more than cover all reasonable expenses. Now the tax -payers of the country have a right to inquire why a Congressman cannot travel at the same price as an officer of the army or navy, and why a Congressmen should be allowed to draw his mileage if he does not perform a journey, if the same privilege is not granted to the officers of the army or navy? The distance between this city and New York is about ninety miles. For travelling this distance under orders an officer will draw about $9; the otual expense of the journey will be about $3; thus the officer will pocket a clear profit of $0. In some sections of the country, and upon long journeys, of course the expense will be greater, but it is certain that ten cents per mile will enable any man to go from one end of the United States to the other in the best conveyances, to put up at the best hotels, and otherwise to travel in first-claws style, and yet make money by the operation. Ten cents per mile is not too muob, as the allowance should be liberal, but it is certainly ample; and therefore it is diffi cult to understand the propriety of members of Congress voting themselves an allowance of thirty cents per mile, and, with the excep tion of the regulation with regard to tho spring session at the commencement of a new Congress, allowing the mileage to be drawn from the Treasury, whether the journey is performed or not. The distance between this city and Washing ton is about one hundred and forty miles, the fare is about $5 (we assume for the sake of argument that our Congressmen pay their fares), and the mileage allowance about $42, so that each representative for this city makes a profit of $74 in his mileage at each session of Congress. For Western, and espe cially for the California members, the mileage amounts to several thousand dollars annually, and the whole sum unnecessarily drawn from the Treasury by the extra-liberality of Con gressmen in voting into their own pockets the people's money is enormous. Congress has decided that ten cents a mile is sufficient to enable an army or uavy officer to travel like a gentleman, but that thirty cents per mile is not more than suffioent to sustain the dignity of a Congressman. In the language of the lamented A. Ward, we inquire "Why is this thuB ?" Contested Seats. After voting over a hundred thousand dollars of the people's money to defeated candidates for Congress, the House of Representatives yesterday after noon was suddenly stricken with a fit of eco nomy, and refused to give the unfortunate Mr. Conner, of Texas, a paltry couple of thousands to reimburse him for the expense incurred in defending his right to his seat against some greedy candidate whom the peo ple desired to keep at home, and this, not withstanding the appeal made by Conner, based on the 'peculiarities" of his case. If this virtuous turn had been taken a day or two ago, before a larger amount was voted to a man who claimed to have been elected as representative at large for the State of Ten nessee, when there was no shadow of law for such a claim, it would have been in better tuste; but as it is, the people will accept the nfuotd to make a donation to Conner a) a sort of apology on the part of the House for having been so reckless in recraril to nrevions w 0 E claimants. Such an apology amounts to but little, but it serves the purpose of showing that even the House of ReDresentatives real- izes that some excuse is needed for throwing away the people's money. Ma. "Rooster" Smith's great pneumatio bill, which proposes to give an irresponsible boring company the control of the avenues, streets, and alleys of the city of Philadelphia, with the public squares for passenger sta tions, was yesterday reported favorably to the House of Representatives by the committee which had it in charge. As the people of the portion of the city where this company of borers expeot principally to operate are not in any way responsible for the election of Mr. Smith to the Legislature, it is certainly rather rough that they should be inflicted with any of the jobs which he is endeavoring to get through the Legislature. We sinoerely hope that the virtuous members of the Phila delphia delegation, and some of them we be lieve to be virtuous, will make a decided stand against this and a couple hundred or so of similar measures which have been intro duced at the present session by W. F. Smith, Esq. THE LATE JUDGE COXYNUHAM. The Painful Manner mf Ilia Denth-Flaal Mcenes and I. nut Wo rein. A Wilkcsbiirre correspondent of the Scranton Jlfpublican writes: 1 he story of the accident which caused the death of tho judge Is as follows: Arriving at Magnolia, Miss., about 9 o'clock last Thursday evening, the train stoppud. there for the passen gers to take supper. The Judge, Mr- SV. L. Conynghara, ana an old gentleman named Hen derson, who had travelled with tnoru from Pitts burg, left the train together and took their supper at the hotel near by, the usual place, the Judge eating very heartily. While they were thus engaged their train was taken away from the place they left It and another came up, aud when they returned they went Into one of the cars, to find, however, that it did not belong to their traiD, and they turned to leave it. The train was slowly starting, and they did so with some haste, Mr. W. L. Conyneham and Mr. Henderson alightlnj without trouble, except, a harmless fall on the part of the latter. The Judge was not 60 fortunate, as in stepping off the car steps to tho platform of the depot, which was rather low, he stumbled and fell, with his legs between the platform and the cars ot the train, and when they had parsed it was found that his legs, below the knees, were crushed in a terrible manner. It is not known whether they had been crushed betweeu the platform and the steps of the cars, or whether the wheels of one truck had passed over them, and there appears to be no conclusion as to which was the probable way. lie was taken to the hotel and medical aid immediately sum moned, and everything possible was done for his comfort. He did not realize the extent of his injury at first, no pain attended it, and he even made an attempt to get up before ho was removed from the platform, saying, "No matter, I am not hurt; I will get up in a few moments." He lived two hours, and toward the last, when reaction seemed to be taking place, and he began to feel some pain, and was told how serious bis in jury was, he desired amputation to be per formed. Injections of morphia wero made to allay the pain; while preparations were making for the amputation, but under the effects of the morphia he seemed to decline, and not a great while after dissolution took place. His last words were, "I know that my Redeemer liveth."
