establishment, baa been in the receipt of telegra
phic news from the New York Associated Press,
Mrlilch consists of tne Tribune, Times, Herald,
World, Sun, Journal 0 Commerce, Evening Post,
Commercial Advertiser, ana Evening Express. Tne
success which has attended onr enterprise Is, In
ltnelf, a sufficient evidence of the freshness, full
ech and reliability of the news which we have
received from this source. In March, 1S70, we
entered Into a special contract by which Tint
Evening Telegiiaph has the exclusive nseof the
news furnished In the afternoon by the Associated
Fiesa to Its own members, the North American, In
4) n'rff, Ledger, Press, Age, Record, and German Demo,

North, West, and South; and hereafter The Telk-
0 RAi-a will be the only evening paper published in this
1 ttv in which the afternoon despatches of the Asso
ciated Press will appear.
ifcThe earliest regular edition of the The
Evening Telegraph goes to press at 1 o'clock,
and the subsequent regular editions at , and

plications In Europe, extra editions will be issued
afier this hour, and before the regular time for the
eatiy edition.
. THE OAS RING.
Fop. j-eara the people have noticed the power
wielded by this Ring, and have complained
time and time again at its arrogance and pre
sumption, but without avail. Confident of
its ability to carry every measure it deems
proper, it cares not for the wishes of the
people, intent only upon its own aggrandize
ment and that of .its friends. Its ramifica
tions of influence are so extended, its patron
age so immense, that no desired legis
lation of its own can well be opposed by
legislators who value their position. In the
event of opposition to any of its mandates,
for such they really are, the Councilman finds
himself the victim of persistent and continu
ous persecution and vilification, and, if a
candidate for re-election, the Ring bends
every energy to secure his defeat, and gene
rally succeeds.
Now we ask all good citizens, Should such a
fttate of an airs exist ? Should they be per
mitted to continue ? The matter of the ap
propriation of half a million of dollars
to this Vody will come up for action
at the next meeting of Councils. Our
citizens know that the Market street works
were demolished without consultation with
the representatives of the people, and that
these could, with but a small amount required
for repairs, have answered every purpose for
the next twenty years. But this did not suit
the riews of these Ring managers. Jobs had
to be given to contractors, and their adhe
rents must be cared for, for by such manage
ment as this is, power is still further increased
and retained.
After this act, we might almost say of
vandalism, the trustees have entered into
contracts for the building of new works, and
impudently ask the tax-payers for the money
to carry them out. Will our Councilmen
prove tlfemselves the servants of the Ring, or
will they uphold the interests of the people?
The latter demand that the Ring be com
pelled to comply with the requirements of
law in every particular, and this cannot be
done by granting this appropriation. This
bill should by all means be defeated, if for no
other reasen than to teach these men that the
laws and ordinances cannot be violated with
impunity, but that they must be respeoted
even by the Gas Trustees.
Hut aside from the fact that in this action
in regard to the proposed new Gas Works
the Ring has proceeded against law, and, we
take it, in violation of the oath of office,
other and serious charges may, with propriety
and truth, be preferred against the aien who
compose it. The truth is, the people have
lost all confidence in them they meet in
secret conclave, against law, and are afraid of
publio scrutiny of their acts. They have
entered into innumerable contracts with
their favorites, at prices one hundred
per cent, above market rates. They
have controlled" all the departments of
the municipal government through their emis
saries and appointees, and have again and again
forced improper candidates upon the Re
publican party. They have made demands for
unlimited amounts of the publio money in the
shape of loans, which have been expended in
by no means the wisest manner. They con
sider themselves the masters of the people,
and so act in every matter connected with
their position.
In view of all these facts, we speak for the
people, and demand that the issue be fairly
and squarely made between them and the
Ring. Let he members of Select Council
who have any regard for the publio interests,
or for their ow reputation as honest men,
refuse positively to authorize the loan of half
a million dollars demanded by the Gas ,
Trustees. A direct blow will thus be struck
atth- power of the Ring, and a reform wilt be
inaugurated that if properly pushed will lead
to important results in the future. The de
struction of the Market street works was a
gross outrage upon the citizens of Philadel
phia, and those wb'o are guilty should be
obliged to bear the weight of publio indigna
tion, as they surely will if there is any de
ficiency in the supply of gas next winter.
The tax payers of this city have suffered long
enough from the tyranny of the Gas Ring,
and the time has now arrived for patting aa
end to it. Will the members of Select Cana-
cil in thii emergency prove themselves the
servant of the people or of the Ring 't
no vgut nsr u ta tioxs.
Here we have the Inevitable Victor nngo
Out again before the bloody background of
mined France, bowing and smirking like Sir
Andrew Aguecheek when "dancing corantos
to show the excellent constitution of his
legs." "What is Paris?" cries Hugo; "what
matter if, mad with starvation or crime, she
has cut her own throat, and is slowly bleed
ing to death? What matter if a great nation
has lost her place on the earth? Here am 1 1
Look at me! me!" Then, swelling, with pa
triotism until he quite covers the ghastly
spectacle behind him, he proceeds to depict
himself as affording shelter to an imagi
nary Communist. He calls upon all nations
to contemplate and do homage to himself and
his guest, "two truly venerable figures."
Next he gTows definnt, dares the world
"to take this Communist from Hugo;" he
paints Hugo following him if taken; Jingo
sitting beside him on the prisoner's bench,
and then he stands off and weeps over
Hugo's courage and heroism.
When we call to mind, without prejudice,
that the only aotual work ever accomplished
by this Hugo was the writing of some won
derful lyrio poetry, and of some very graphio
and clever novels, which were advertised as
no others ever published, we are charitable
enough to suspect that this gasoonade is not
the eruption, as it seems, of a monstrous dis
eased vanity, but a shrewd advertisement of
himself, and consequently of his wares. The
trade of boasting and self-advertising is
already well enough understood among us,
and, we regret to say, by none better than by
the men who profess to be the instructors of
the people both in press and pulpit. Outside
of the great cities the credulous publio holds
out a genial welcome to all literary or
devout reputations, without a suspicion of
the means too often made use of to create
them. The journalist, or author, or sensational
preacher who finds Fame slow in bringing her
trumpet to her mouth, knows very well how
to jog her elbow. There is the ordinary
coarse expedient of a paid-for page in the
newest "Lives of Eminent Men;" there are
innumerable anecdotes to be seen floating
through the press; there are adverse criticisms
written to order, angry newspaper dis
cussions, libel suits. "Notice your own
book," advised an eminent editor; "it is the
only way you can be secure of justice." The
system of laudation acts and reacts, too, like
circles in water. Nor is it only sham
pretenders who thus gild their tawdry reputa
tions. There are among these men writers of
merit, asd clergymen who are working
honestly to help their fellow-men. We re
ferred the other day to a full-iength statue,
exhibited in a Chesnut street w indow, labelled
in choice running hand "The Prisoner's
Friend." Curiously enough, we thought it
intended for the wrong person, though the
right one really deserves the self -advertised
title; but he cannot refrain from thus thrust
ing his good deeds before the world. One
portrait of him represents angels, clothed in
convict garb, as crowning him while he enters
Heaven In glory. Now, perhaps we ought to
feel no more impatient disgust at this lack of
decent modesty in religious or literary men
than in others. Human nature finds praise,
or at least recognition, as necessary for its
daily food as the body does bread; and when
the world seems bent on holding back ap-'
plause until a man is dead, it is a sore temp
tation to him to prick the sides of its
intent, particularly if his profession
has accustomed him to ride and direct the
sluggish beast. It would be useless to preach
to these self-advertisers the fact that the
deeds which ennoble men have no tangible
reward as their motive. They are more likely
to be accessible to another fact, whioh is
that the voice of the public is unerring in its
final verdict on a man, and that the men of
press and pulpit among us who have been
awarded the highest plaoes have been those
who worked solely for their work's sake, and
who yet carry into their success the power of
sincere and grand humility. '
THE POl'E'8 DENUNCIATION OF
LIBERAL CATHOLICISM.
A cable telegram from Paris states that "the
Pope, in reply to an address of sympathy from
the French Catholics, praises the zeal they ex
hibit in the cause of the Church and himself,
and denounces liberal Catholicism as an evil
as formidable as the Revolution or the Com
mune. " This strong language acoords logi
cally, perhaps, with some of the doctrines
asserted by the late (Ecumenical Council, but
it is nevertheless startling. It indicates not
only that the Pope is deeply aggrieved by the
modern course of events in Austria and Italy,
but that he is disposed to throw the
whole weight of his influenoe in favor of a
complete reactionary movement in France.
In that country the representative of the old
Bourbon line of monarchs, the Count de
Chambord, is now a somewhat formidable
candidate for the throne; and while in his
late manifesto he expressed his readiness to
condone all ordinary political offenses, and
to keep step with the progress of the age in
all minor points ' of politics,' he avowed an
unalterable determination to cast the
whole weight of French ' influence
in support of the Pope. It is commonly be
lieved that a very large proportion of the
priests of France will, in turn, use their best
exertions to promote the reconstruction of a
French monarchy, of which Count de Cham
bord will be the bead, so that the old system
of, kingly rule by right divine may be
thoroughly re-established; and it is probably
part of , this programme that the Count
de Chambord 4 shall restore, by force
of arms, if necessary, the temporal
authority of the Pope in the Papal dominions.
An attempt to enforce this policy would
probably be violently resisted by Victor
Emsnuel; and this would lead to that singular
anomaly in the nineteenth century, a religious,
or serui-rel'glouB, war. The Pope, in his
recent denunciation of liberal Catholicism,
prbbliy intended to rebuke that portion of
the French Catholics who are not disposed to
favor a Bourbon restoration, and to cast the
vtuoltt weight of his infiaence in support of a
candidate for the French throne whone ana.
cess would furnish a new and powerful cham
pion of Papal power. In fdtmer ages religi
ous feeling formed the basis of nearly all
political combinations; but there is consider
able novelty in the spectacle of religion being
made a controlling element of national poli
tics at the present day, and the movement
referred to possesses an especial interest on
this account.
Yesterday an officer, who has the reputa
tion of being one of the most faithful and
most efficient members of the police foroe,
was shot down while in the peiformance of
bis duty by a wretch whose hands have
already been stained with blood, but who, by
eome mysterious influence, has hitherto been
able to escape punishment for his crimes.
Lieutenant Flaherty's wounds will not im
probably prove fatal; but whether his assail
ant will ever be convicted, or, in case of con
viction, whether he will ever be punished, are
matters of extreme 4oubt. He belongs to a
class of ruffians who do the dirty work of the
genteel political managers who push them
selves forward on all occasions as the only true
representatives of the great party principles
of the day, and who, although they occasionally
make a sacrifice to outraged publio opinion
just as the British occasionally hang a lord to
show their impartiality they as a general
rule exert themselves efficiently to shield
their tools from the consequenoes f their
misdeeds. Even if the would-be mur
derer of Lieutenant Flaherty should be con
victed and sentenced, Governor Geary's clerk
has only to fill up the blanks of a pardon
paper when the usual highly "respectable"
citizens of Philadelphia make the usual de
mand upon him, and he is launched upon
the community again to continue his
career of blood. It is the duty, neverthe
less, of the Mayor and all other officers of the
law to make every possible exertion to cap.
ture the assailant of Flaherty, and to furnish
him with a hempen cravat. If they can have
him tried and convicted the responsibility
will be removed from their shoulders, and
they will receive credit for at least making an
effort to put down ruffianism and to sustain
the dignity of the law.
