phic news from the New YorK Associated Press,
Which consists of the Tribtine, Time, Herald,
World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Keening Post,
Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Express. The
succePB which has attended our enterprise Is, In
itself, a sulllclent evidence of the freshness, full
ness, and reliability of the news which we have
received from this source. In March, 1S70, we
entered Into a special contract by which The
Evening Telegkaph has the exclusive use of the
Dews furnished in the aftcnoon by the Associated

after this hour, and before the regular time for the
early edition.
ANOTHER LEGISLATIVE BLOW AT
PHILADELPHIA.
Tnis city has again be6n victimized by legis
lation at the State Capitol, or rather the want
of it. In the State Senate a bill was recently
reported, providing for the transfer of the
proceeds arising from licenses granted to
tavern-keepers, brewers, etc, from the State
Treasury to the various local county and city
treasuries; but this wise and just provision
was stricken from the bill, and in total disre
gard of the custom prevailing elsewhere, the
magnanimous Commonwealth continues to
take all the sums derived from tavern
licenses, while it leaves the tax-burdened
city to pay the cost of maintaining the police
force and supporting the inmates of the County
Prison and the Almshouse ! A similar ques
tion also came up in the lower branch of the
Legislature recently, when the House of Cor
rection bill was under consideration. It con
tained a provision imposing for the support
of that institution an additional tax of $50 on
all amuseir-ent and liquor licenses granted in
Philadelphia. This portion of the bill was
bitterly opposed, however, by some of the
members from this city; and after their oppo
sition to the clause in question proved unsuc
cessful, they revenged themselves by defeat
ing the entire measure, although it had pre
viously been approved, and asked for as a
necessity, by the commissioners for building
the House of Correction and by City Coun
cils. The virtuous Sam Josephs led the raid
against the increased tax on taverns,
but he seems to have been
supported by all the members from this city
except Messrs. Dumbell, Griffiths, Johnson,
Miller, and Smith; and the practical result
of the late legislation in the Senate and
Ilouse is not only to postpone the successful
operation of the House of Correction, but to
totally deprive the oity treasury of a source
of revenue from which, under a proper sys
tem, there should be derived enough money
to support the Almshouse, County Prison, and
Ilouse of Correction. The nation and the State
will continue to replenish their coffers from
the tax on liquors and the licenses for selling
liquor, while the city must continue to sup
port thousands of those who are made paupers
and criminals by the liquor traffic, without
deriving a penny from this source, or receiv
ing a particle of pecuniary assistance from
the National or State treasury. Of all the
anomalies of legislation growing out of our
complex system of government, this is the
most unjust; and if the bulk of the legislators
we send to Ilarrisburg cared a farthing for
the city's interests, and had a faint concep
tion of their true duties, such an unequal and
oppressive method of distributing burdens
and revenues would 6peedily be abolished.
RESERVED SEATS.
A case was tried yesterday in the Court of
Common Pleas, before Judge Ludlow, which
involved a question of fair dealing between
the managers of a place of amusement and
the public, and the statements of the case
made respectively by the plaintiff and the
defendants suggest the necessity for some
more satisfactory nystecu with regard to re
served seats than exists at present in any of
our theatres or minstrel halls, except the
Academy of Music. It seems that a gentle
man purchased three tickets for a perform
ance at one of the minstrel halls, which were
accompanied by checks entitling the holders
to seats if any were unoccupied. They were
sot the regular reserved-seat checks, but were
Bold under certain conditions which it is
doubtful whether one purchaser out of a hun
dred would fully understand, and the party
holding them beine nimble to find seats left the
house, and the next day demanded reparation
at the box offioe. A compromise was offered
which was not satisfactory, and the . case was
earned into court, where the jury gave a ver
dict for the plaintiff, upon the priaoiple, we
eoppose, that the managers had no right to
make such an ambiguous bargain with their
guests, and that those who purchased coupon
tickets were entitled to seats under any coa
i ditions. The moral of this affair is that thera
should be more fair dealing at all the places
of amusement with regard to seating the
, audlei.ee, for there is au infinite amount of
annoyance caused at present owing to the
expectations of ticket purchasers with regard
to their right to seats not being realized. In all
the regular theatres the orchestra or parquet
seats are reserved for the holders of cheoks,
and their price is well known, so that there is
never any difficulty with regard to them.
The orchestra circle or parquet circle is open
to the publio at a stated prioe, with an
extra charge for reserved seats, and
this arrangement is one of the principal
sources of trouble and annoyance. Several
rows of seats are usually marked as "taken,"
and those who do not hold checks have to
seat themselves in the back rows. As it not
unfreqnently happens that many of the seats
marked "taken" are not ocoupied, the pur
chasers of simple admission tickets who
imagine themselves entitled to the best places
they can find that have not been secured in
advance by other parties are dissatisfied, and
imagine themselves unfairly dealt with; and
it occasionally happens that some sturdy indi
vidual takes possession of a choice place and
refuses to remove from it until threatened
with arrest. All this difficulty and annoyance
could easily be avoided if every visitor to a
theatre were presented with a check desig
nating the seat to be occupied for the even
ing. Or it would perhaps be equally
Eatisfactory if the tickets for the
orchestra or parquet seats were sold
with checks, and the other parts of the house
thrown open to those who pay a simple ad
mission fee. At any rate, there should be one
established price and one established rule for
each division of the house, s that it would
be impossible for the most thick-headed visi
tor to be under an erroneous impression
about the extent of the privileges he pays
for. At the Academy of Musio all the seats
in the parquet, parquet circle, and dress
circle are checked, and the arrangement works
so well there, and saves so many unpleasant
controversies, that some similar plan should
be adopted at all respectable places of amuse
ment. The situation in and about Paris continues
unchanged, although there are indications
that the Communists will shortly come to
terms of some sort with the Versailles Gov
ernment. In the meantime they are perpe
trating acts of vandalism so utterly disgrace
ful that they put to shame those who censured
the Germans for besieging and bombarding
Paris because it wsr the "eye of civilization.'
The Communists have sacked several of the
churches, including the Cathedral of Notre
Dame, and now they have determined to de
molish the famous column in the Place Ven
dome, on the ground that it is a barbarous
monument, a symbol of brute force and false
glory, and a negation of fraternity. A 11 of
these reasons are so absolutely correot that if
the Communists of Paris were anything else
than what they are, the world might look with
satisfaction upon the demolition of a monu
ment which more than any other
in Paris has ministered to the
false love of glory which was one of the in
spiring causes of the disastrous war that has
just been concluded. The destruction of his
torical monuments and national works of art,
however, by a sudden freak of au infu
riated mob of Parisian Bed Republicans is
something that must be deplored by all right
thinking persons, and unless the Versailles
Government speedily gets possession of Paris,
the whole French people will learn to regret
that the Germans did not hold the city until
a government strong enough to maintain its
authority was ready to take possession of it.
Not the least of the crimes of the first French
revolution was the demolition of national
monuments of the highest interest and
value, and the individuals who are
now endeavoring to inaugurate a new
Ileign of Terror appear to be anxious to emu
late their illustrious predecessors in this as in
other particulars. The evident desire of the
Germans to injure Paris as little as possible
is certainly a favorable contrast to the per
formances of the Frenchmen who now hold
possession of the unhappy city; and if the
present condition of affairs continues much
longer, it will be no wonder if the very name
of a republic is held in abhorrence by a vast
majority of the French people.
The Government of New South Wales,
one of the British dependencies, turns a deaf
ear to the free-trade teachings of the political
economists who write in the interest of the
British manufacturers. It has recently pro
posed an increase of the duties on nearly all.
imported articles heretofore taxed, and an
imposition of duties on some articles which
have hitherto been on the free list.
Thus John Bui's own oolonies repudiate his
modern theories and like all wise and pro
gressive countries, seek prosperity in pro
tection. They understand the tricks of the
drummers for British trade too well to be
humbugged by them when they put on the
robes of free-trade philosophers.
MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.
Remarkable Disappearance of a New York
Oiliclal.
The New York Pest of last evening says:
The removal of General William 11. Lawrence
from the position of United States Pension
Ageut in this city occasioned surprise and c em
inent. Among his intimate friends, however,
the cause of his displacement was well known
to be his unexplained absence from the city for
a long period, which rendered necessary the
api oiutiutnt of a successor to perforin the
duties of his office.
On tbe 15i.li ot last month General Lawrence
left this city for Chicago. The day before his
departure he said to nis family, and also to
ftveral friends, that he intended to visit Chi
cago on some private business, and that he
should be absent a week, or at the utmost
ten days. About a week subsequently his wife
received a letter from him, dated at Chicago,
sayiiig tbat his absence would be prolonged a
week longer; that , be was going upon some
bui-liiees into the couutry, where he would be
beyond the reach of pocial communication, aud
that the must not be alarmed if tbe did not im
mediately hear from blm. Since tbe receipt of
tLis letter General Lawrence has been com
pletely lotst to tbe knowledge of his friends. A
telegraphic despatch sent to Chicago brought a
i-t-uue that he left bis hotel at about tbe date
ol bis letter, but tbat bis subsequent movemeuts
were wholiy unknown to tho-e acquainted wiib.
bim tLtre.
Ibis disappearance can be accouuted for by
bib li!tLd6 cnJy iiL'ou tbe grouud that he hi
met with some accident or foul play. His ac
counts as f ension Aeent are, as far as they have
been examined, entirely correct. Just after he
left a draft of $20,000," for the payment of pen
sions, was sent to his olllce from the Treasury
Department. As his signature "as necessary to
Rive validity to tbe dralt, It conW not be used,
and between $7000 and $8000 worth of
checks sent In by pensioners, had to
be protcpted at the Sub-Treasury. His absence
continues so long, and being so Inexplicable,
Colonel Doty was appointed to fill his place.
Owing to the confuf ion arising from the Inter
regnum, It was deemed best to suspend the busi
ness of the office during this week, that the
account mhiht be rt vised by the new incumbent.
The payment of pension will be resumed next
Monday.
General Lawrence wore when he left a dia
mond pin valued at $100 and a gold watch
valued at $260. It Is also said that he carried
considerable money with him. The conviction
Is gaining ground among his friends that be has
been murdered to obtain his valuables. It is
.also said that be was occasionally subject to a
uieease wnicu proaucea intense palH, ana nas
rendered him at times temporarily Insane, even
for a week at a time. It is posolbfe that he may
have died In one of these paroxvstns, In some
obscure country place, where his name and
home were unknown. Ills family are employ
ing detectives to unravel the mystery which en
velopes his disappearance.
THE LOCIIIEL STRIKE.
The largest Iron "Works In Pennsylvania
Idle Cause of the Strike Resolutions of
the Labor Union.
The strike at tbe Lochiel Iron Works still
continues, and about 300 men are thrown out of
employment and remain in idleness. The Presi
dent of the company publishes a card, In which
be explains the dilliculty. From his version it
appears tbat six heats were required dallv, ex
cept Saturday, when only five constituted a
day's work. After the third heat last Saturday
the heater first in turn refused to enter upon his
duty, and was discharged by the company. The
employes demanded bis reinstatement, which
was refused, and being members of the Labor
Union, a strike was ordered and carried out.
Tbe company also allege that tbe advance of
pig-iron, caused by tbe present suspension iu
the coal region, without compensating advance
of rails, has induced them to close tbe works
for at least two months. The strike hastened
the suspension, which has been under considera
tion for some time past, aud was only delayed
out of regard to tbe worklngmen, who will ex
perience the greatest loss and suffering by the
unfortunate condition of affairs. The following
resolutions were adopted at a meeting of the
Laoor union jno. o, ceiu last evening:
Whereat, In the recent struggle between labor aud
capital (the Laborers' Union representing the one,
and the railroad monopolies representing t,ti other)
that has taken place In our istste Legislature, Gov
ernor Geary and some of our Senators and repre
sentatives have shown themselves the firm friends
of the worklugm-n ; therefore be tt
Resolved, That, the Laborers' Vnlon No. 6, of Har
rlsliurg, In behalf of all the worklngmen of this city
aud vicinity, return to Governor Geary our most
heartfelt timnfes for the noble mnnner In which he
has stood by our Interests, for the wise counsel he
has given our representatives, and lor the measures
he lias been inatnlv Instrumental lu Instituting
against the oppression of the worklngmen of this
State.
Resolved, That we return to the Senators and Re
presentatives who have stood bv us In this great
struggle our most sincere and heutfelt thinks,
knowing that an approving conscience and the con
lldence and esteem of their constituents will be
their reward, and deserve the encomium of "Well
done, good nd faithful servants."
Resolved, That we most urgently request Governor
Geary and those associated with htm not to relax
their efforts until the laws of this Commonwealth
are faithfully enforced, and the punishment due our
oppressors is meted to them.
