MONDAY, JUNE 26, 1871.
Thi Evening Telboraph, from its original
establishment, has been la the receipt or telegra
phic news from the New Yort Associated Press,
which consists of the Tribune, Timet, Herald,
World, Sun, Journal e Commerce, Evening Pout,
Commercial Advertiser, and Evening Expreee. The
success which has attended our enterprise Is, in
Itself, a sufficient evldenoe of the freshness, full
ness, and reliability of the Bews which we have
received from this source. In March, 1S70, we
entered Into a special contract by which Tns
Evening TilbOraph has the exclusive use of the
news furnished in the afternoon by the Associated
Press to Its own members, the Korth American, In
quirer, Ledger, Frees, Age, Record, and German Demo
c rat, of this city, and the leading journals of the Bast,
North, West, and South ; and hereafter Thh Tjci.b
Q rape will be the only evenino paper published in this
t it y In which the afternoon despatches of the Asso
ciated Press will appear.
tvThe earliest regular edition of the Thi
Evening Telegraph goes to press at 1 o'clock,
and the subsequent regular editions at 8, 8, and
4& Whenever there Is important news of the com
plications In Europe, extra editions will be issued
after this hoar, and before the regular time for the
early edition.
EVENING NEWSPAPERS.
Various circumstances have combined, of
late years, to largely increase the circulation,
influence, and attractiveness of evening news
papers. In Madrid the favorite daily news
paper makes its first and only appearance at
about nine o'clock in the evening, full of the
news of the very day it is printed, up to the
latest possible moment, and it is hailed with
delight in all social circles, the custom being
to read it in the hours of leisure which imme
diately precede retirement. This system has
not yet been established in the United States,
but there is a constant tendency to gradually
approach it. In this busy age few men
have much 'time to read in the morning.
Whether they are laborers, mechanics, mer
chants, manufacturers, or bankers, they must
hurry to their respective plaoes of business,
and devour the oontents of morning journals
at hurried intervals, casting a hasty glanoe
over the various departments, but lacking
time and opportunity to thoroughly examine
any page or any complete set of articles.
Late in the afternoon, after the work of the
day is finished, as well as in the evening,
after the last meal is consumed, there is
always time for rest and reading, and for a
thorough appreciation and enjoyment of any
intellectual entertainment that may be pro
vided. A gentleman very actively engaged in
business in this city said to us recently that he
could rarely afford to devote more than a few
minutes of any morning hour to the perusal
of morning journals, while in the evening he
rarely failed to spend several hours in reading
evening newspapers; and a fair parallel to his
experience, is furnished in hundreds of ia
stances.
A moving cause of the increasing amount
of favor and patronage beBtowed upon even
ing newspapers is to be found in the large
extent to which they anticipate news pub
lished in morning journals. It might, per
haps, have been said some years ago that
evening newspapers were prone to be reprints
of morning journals; but this state of affairs
is now practically reversed. The edition of
The Evening Teleobaph delivered by car
riers does not go to press until nearly four
o'clock F. M., and it embraces all the news ef
each day up to that period. This includes
important proceedings before the courts, the
prices of stocks, a reoord of local events, news
received by mail from every quarter, together
with a full supply of late telegraphic intelr
gence from every portion of the globe.
When Congress is in session, nearly all its
important proceedings are published on the
day on which they transpire, and at all times
we are enabled to give a comprehensive re
cord of the exciting labors and incidents that
have occurred daring the working hours of
eaoh day to our readers before they retire to
rest. This is not only true of all local,
State, and National news, but especially
true of foreign news. The difference in
time between the Old and New Worlds tells
in favor of the evening newspapers. We
need not enlarge upon this point further than
to state that we can reoeive by one o'clock
P. M. an account of anything known in Lon
don np to six o'clock P. M. of a given day,
, and before we go to press every important
event that has transpired in any part of Eu
rupe np to from six to eight o'clock P. M. of
that day is communicated to our readers.
The full force of the statements made
above can only be understood by those
patrons of the editions of The Evenino Tele
obaph delivered by carriers who are also in
the habit of reading one or more morning
journals. They can estimate for themselves
how large a proportion of the
current news of every description is
first brought to their notice
by the contents of oar columns. Bat if the
whole reading public of Philadelphia
thoroughly appreciated the extent to which
the morning news is thus.anticipated by the
evening journals, tens of thousands of new
patrons would be added to our already larqe
List not merely because the evening is the
bebt time to read under the present social
System, but because the latest and freshest
news of the time is now supplied by evening
newspapers.
THE LANAHAN CASE.
The Methodist Book Concern scandal on
Saturday reached a fresh stage of develop,
moot in the removal of Dr, Lanahau from his
position of Assistant Agent of the Book Com
mittee, the vote being eleven in favor of
removal and four against. This action on the
part of the Book Committee may possibly
enable the people who have had the control
of the concern for so many years that they
have probably learned to regard
it as their private property to
get rid of the troublesome Assistant Agent
who persists in knowing where the money
goes; but it will not convince tne members
of the Methodist Church who give their
money for the support of their great publish
ing house, or the publie at large, who have
been looking on with amazement at the at
tempts to suppress Dr. Lanahan, that the
concern is honestly managed. On the con
trary, the total disregard for decency and jus
tice displayed by the committee in the con
duct of the trial and in its verdict will only
confirm the opinion that Dr. Lanahan has
told the truth, and nothing but the truth,
in charging the management of the concern
with fraud. During the trial Dr. Lanahan
was not allowed any opportunity whatever to
substantiate his charges, and the four mem-,
be'rs of the committee who voted against his
removal were certainly correct in their de
claration that to hear the evidence first and
to depose afterwards, if necessary, would
have been the course of justice and wisdom.
The whole effort of the Book Committee and
of the old managers of the Book Concern,
however, has been to suppress the auda
cious Assistant Agent and to prevent
any investigation into his charges;
and thus far they have succeeded, but they
have only damaged their own cause by doing
so, for no one believes that if Dr. Lanahan's
accusations had been false Dr. Carlton and
his coadjutors would not have been eager to
refute them in the only manner in which they
can be refuted. Dr. Lanahan has tried by
every means in his power to have such an in
vestigation of the affairs of the Book 0 jncern
as will be satisfactory to the Methodist
Church and to the public, and he has been
baffled at every point. On Friday his appli
cation to the Supreme Court for an
injunction on Dr. Carlton to give
him access to the books was denied
by the notorious Judge Barnard in a decision
that is remarkable even for the famous judi
cial agent of the Erie ring. Judge Barnard
abuses Dr. Lanahan in no measured terms for
having made such charges and insinuations
as he did against the management of the
Book Concern. He asserts that these charges
were made without proper evidence, and con
tends that it was a piece of impudence on
his part to endeavor now to hunt up evidence
to substantiate charges preferred in such a
manner. Judge Barnard asks why Dr. Lana
han did not make his examination first, and
then prefer his charges after he had obtained
his evidence. The answer to this is
very easy. Dr. Lanahan discovered plain
evidences of fraud and mismanagement, but
he was not allowed an opportunity to follow
them np, and it was to compel the Senior
Agent to show his hand that he demanded an
investigation. It is certainly something novel
in law that a crime must not be exposed until
all the evidence is in the possession of the
accuser; and one object of judicial investiga
tion is to collect evidence that is unattainable
by private individuals. Judge Barnard
farther contends that, as Dr. Lanahan was in
ferior and subordinate in position to Dr.
Carlton, and wholly subject to his control
and direction, he had no right to any books
or papers that the Senior Agent did not
choose to furnish him. Judge Barnard's de
cision may be according to law, but the rea
sons by which he seeks to support it will
scarcely be accepted by the public as sum
cient; and people will not impertinently ask
whether he is in the pay of the Book Concern
ring, as he is in that of the Erie ring and that
of the Tammany ring, by which New York is
ruled and plundered? Judge Barnard is a
handy man for magnificent rogues to have
on the bench, but his decisions are not una
ally of such a character as to inspire any great
amount of confidence in the justice of such
causes as he favors, and the wording of his
decision against Dr. Lanahan's application for
an injunction can only have the effect of
increasing the public sympathy for that per
secuted individual. The MeVtodist of last
week hit the nail square on the head when
it said: "The attempt to expel Dr. Lanahan
shows an evident wish to be rid of an incon
venient officer. If his statements as to the
condition of the account books are unim
peachable, the Church will regard any errors
of manner as 'the small dust of the balance'
in comparison with the weightiness of the
truths which he has discovered. All then
turns upon the point: Are the books and ao
counts in a state of chaotic confusion? Are
they unreliable records of the business?'
Do they confirm previous charges of mis
management and fraud? If Dr.
Lanahan's statements are true, there ought to
be trouble. Some one ought to cry aloud
and spare not. Dr. Lanahan must be con
firmed or confated on the' main issue."
The action of the Book Committee in re
moving Dr. Lanahan must be confirmed by
the bishops before it can be carried into
effect, and the public will await with interest
the decision of the right reverend fathers
of the Methodist Church, to see if they will
declare upon the aide of righteousness and
justice or upon that of wickedness and fraud,
There is a little cloud of war, 4,no bigger
tban a man's hand," visible on the Euro
pean horizon. The cable despatches inform
us that the German Government has made or
is about to make demands upon England for
the possession of the insignificant and value
lets i!uiii of Iltlip'oland, near the coast of
Holland, and that the English disinclination
to sell or surrender may not improbably sub
ject London to the fate of Paris, provided the
Ei glibh do not fight better than the Freuch.
As uo oS act to this, however, it may be stated
(hut Lord Granville, a few days ago, declared
positively that there was no controversy what
ever with Germany on the subjeot of Heligo-
and, and that it was not likely either that
England would be asked to part with the
island or that she would part with it if asked.
Heligoland by its geographical position be-
ongs to Germany rather than to England,
but it is certainly not worth going to war
about, and it is very far from probable that
the Germans will care to precipitate a contest
with any nation just at present unless upon
some very weighty pretext. It is, of course,
impossible to tell how much truth there
may be in the rumors about Heligoland, but
it is scarcely likely that "The Battle of Dork
ing" is to be fonght in the present year of
grace, and the chances are that our equanimity
will not be disturbed during the hot season of
1871 by the outbreak of another European
war.

From 1831 to 1833 he was engaged in the survey
of .Narragansett Bay, and in 1831 he was sta
tioned at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. From
1837 to 1843 he was on coast survey duty, and

S ILLING OUT A BANK.
Sale of the Kflectn of the Farmers' Bank
of ii gtula.
'Yom the Richmond Oixpatch, June 23.
This sale commenced, according to appoint
ment, on the steps of the Custom House build
ing yesterday morning. It was attended by
many moneyed men and other interested parties
Ironi atroad, as well as by a large number of
Richmond bankers, lawyers, and merchants.
Bidding was quite spirited, and the prices
brought for the claims were really very good,
although they may have seemed small to the
casual spectator. Thousands of dollars were
frequently knocked down for as many cents.
while in many cases the claims were sold for
double the amount named on the face of the
notes.
The largest sum realized by the sale of any
one item was that for which the gold claim was
knocked down. Just after the breaking up of
tbe Southern Confederacy the United States
Government seized $100,000 in gold belonging
to the Bank of Virginia and Farmers' Bank of
Virginia money which had been taken away
from Richmond by agents of those banks at the
time of the evacuation of the city, to prevent
its falling Into the hands of the enemy. The
eir.ure was made in Georgia, and the money,
uuyiuk uccu couvorvoa into nooui 1SO,000 ia
greenbacks, was deposited la tbe United States
Treasury Department at Washington. Hereto
fore, all ettoris lor the restitution of the whole
or any part of it have proved unavailing, but it
was stated vesteraay mat a prominent lawyer
of Washington had offered to collect it for 12
per cent. The share of tbe Farmers' Bank is, iu
round numbers, about $65,000. It was started
at $1500, and was finally knocked down to Terry
as (jo. lor oj,8uu. ine purchasers seemed
satisfied with the price paid.
The claims of the mother bank aud of th e
branches at Petersburg, Charlottesville, Win
chester, r reilerlcksburg, Alexandria, and Dan
ville were all disposed of, the best price being
rvn iH tAK I ho V InohaatAK wtarxaw a If- tha latran a
note for $uoo, witn two endorsers, which fell
due in 1801, was sold for $3000; another for $908
brought $2800; and etill another, calling for
SK07, brought if 1 SOU. Tbe Charlottesville and
Petersburg claims also sold remarkably well,
and those due the Fredericksburg branch.
owing to peculiar circumstances, generally un
derstood, seemed to be tne least la demand.
ANOTHER FOSTER.
A Respectable Cltlzeu Assaulted While
UettlUK uul or a isroauway stage.
About 9 o'clock last night, as Mr. Dewitt C.
Lawrence, a banker in Wall street, was getting
out of a Broadway stage, in front of the Grand
Central Hotel, be was accosted by a notorious
ruffian, named Edward T. Kelly, who insisted
that be should accompany mm to a neighboring
restaurant and loin mm in a drink. Mr. Law
rence, who had never seen the man before, of
course refused and started to walk away, where
upon Keily caught hold of his coat-collar and
began pushing him about in the liveliest manner
possible. Mr. Lawrence struggled hard, ana
escaped from tbe ruffian's iron grasp, but did
not succeed until after Kelly bad nit mm a mur
derous blow on the forehead, cutting him se
verely. He then ran into the Motel, where he
was met by Olllcer Drake, to whom he related
tne circumstances, ana wno immediately went
and arrested Keny and conveyed mm to tne
Central Ofllce, where he was locked up. At
firt be was placed in one of the large, comfort
able cells on the second floor, but no sooner had
be been locked up tban be turned to and broke
all tbe furniture in the place. After this he was
removed to a smaller and more secure cell in
the basement, where he was left all night, and
will this morning be taken before Justice Uogan
at the Tombs for examination. Ai. 1: Herald.
