I Piazza di Spaona, Rosts, Italy, Friday, April 9, 1869 “Mozler’s 'Prodigal Son’ is the only piece of statuary in Rom# that I have Intensely coveted for myself. The figures being beyond me, I should liko to havo it occasionally, in the house of a friend. The whole spirit, lesson, aim and end of the Bible arc expressed or sug gested In this exquisite group; and what a joy it wonld be to have it before one morning and mid day and evening! Blessed will that man bo who can number it among his treasures, provided he can appreciate It.” This is what Dr. J. G. Holland (Timothy Tit comb”) wrote from Rome this winter to the Springfield Republic an. Every reader and admi rer of ‘‘Eathrina” throughout the United States will be glad to hear that this group, so highly praised by Dr. Holland, has been boaght by an American, not for his own bouse, nor for the honse of a friend where it can only be seen occa sionally, but for a public hall, where Dr. Holland and his largo troop of admirers can see it when ever they please. Mr. J. Gillingham Fell, of your city, so well known, not only for bis large fortune—which Is a goodly and delightful thing to possess—bu l aleo for his public spirit and tho excellent use he makes of his means, has purchased this gronp of Mozier's “ Return of the Prodigal Bon," and pre sented it to tho Academy of Fine Arts in Phila delphia. Alter a few weeks it will arrive in your city, aid I, who have enjoyed so often the May and June Exhibition, can readily imagine the pleasure and enthusiasm of the crowds of visi' tors when this new attraction is placed in the Pnlladeiphla Academy. Mr. Fell's is the original and only life-size of the ‘‘Prodigal Son." The story la not told too literally: it is idealized. As the sculptor himsell remarked, it is Experience and Folly, Error and Forgiveness, Youthful trust aud’the Sympathy of Age. The son rests his head on his father's bosom; the old man embraces the erring boy, and bends over him with quiet tenderness. There Is great repose In the whole expression: the boy looks weary, but as If he had found the haven oi rest; the lather shows no eagerness, no elation over the return of his eon; tho old man has had long experience with the temptations of life, and Is aware of the proneness to evil in human na~ tare; be knows that his poor boy may fall again, and is not 100 hopeful; there is no limit, how ever, to the tender forgiveness; it is a little sad' to be sure, but the love in the aged face is un bounded. The drapery alone most have takes months of labor and thonght, and the finish and elaborate workmanship of the scnlptnre is something truly remarkable. Mr. Durham, a_ member of the English Royal Academy, prondnneed this gronp of the "Return of the Prodigal Son” the finest piece of work in Rome for execution atone, set ting aside its poetic rendering of one of the most touching parables of onr Blessed Lord. American munificence to public institutions is well-known, bnt it has been mostly shown towards objects of material, practical purpose. "The poor ye have always with ye," and it is well; bat man does not live on bread alone; there is also something else required, and this liberality which Mr. Fell has ehown in the cause of art is commendable and worthy of imitation. Before leaving the subject, one suggestion can be made with propriety to other moneyed men who may be generously inclined to follow Mr. Fell's example. The collection of sculpture be longing to the Philadelphia Academy is very small. There are three other works in Rome that ought also to be placed in it: Miss Foley’6 "Jtremloh," Miss Stebbing’s "Joseph" and Miss Hosmer’s "Zenobia.” America has led the way in this movement of women to help women. Let American men show what trnly great works American women have done in the way of art. Roman weather, as it nsed to be, has been this season a tale of the past, bat to-day the pros pects seem brighter, and we are likely now to have a period of fair weather. On Tuesday morning we drove ont the Porta Maria Mog glore to Torre Nuova, to the Hunt Meet. The morning was beautiful; the sky a little covered, bnt enough sun to make the Campngna ravish ing. The carriages, filled with pretty and well dressed women; the graceful Amazon riders; the red coats of the huntsmen, and the eager, sharp scented hounds, made a pleasant sight to look al; while the invigorating air and the smell of the fresh earth and crashed herbs, trampled down by the horses' feet and carriage wheels, was a savory odor equally delightful. The lark's song, too, was added, so that nothing was wanting to oar enjoyment. We drove abont the Campagna, walked, fol lowed tbe hnnt for awhile, and then, when we Baw the rain in the distance coming toward os, we had the carriages closed and retreated pru dently to Rome, leaving the male and female Nimrode to start their fox by themselves, al though several carriages remained on the field through the rain. On Monday, April sth, the Princes Maria Dolla Grade Pia was married to the ex-Duke Robert of Parma, by the Pope, in person, in his chapel at tho Vatican. This Princess Is the little girl who was born at Gaeta, in 1849, when the Pope was there in refuge, during the Roman Revolu tion. She was baptized there by his Holiness, who is her godfather. At tho wedding there were present her brother, the ex-King of the two Sicilies, the Qneen, Cardinals Antonclli, Clarclll, Do Luca, Monalo, La Valletta and Grandlini, Count and Countess of Caserte. Count de Bari, Count and Countess Trapani, brothers and sisters, brotherß-in-law and sisters-in-law of the bride,and Don Alfonzo de Bonrbon, Infant of Spain. Before Mass the Pope look a seat near the altar, robed in white chappe and embroidered mitre. A pontifical master oi ceremonies Invited the Dnke of Parma to kneel before the Pope; another master of ceremoqics gave the samo re quest to the Princess Maria Pia. Tho two knelt before his Holiness while he asked of each their respective consent to the marriage. He then pro ceeded to pronounce tho solemn formula of tho ritual. After the wedding the yonng couple won! down into St. Poter’s, and knelt at the various altars. The position which the Duke of Parma took on Palm Sunday at St. Peter's, and which I men tioned in my preceding letter, has caused some remarks to bo made In the diplomatic circle; also the attentions paid to tho Prince of Saxe Mein in gen and Prince of Monaco at the Papal Court. They have been treated as reigning Princes- Among other courtesies, thoir carriages have PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28, 1869. hcen preceded by a dragoon or battislrada.

THE NEWSPAPER SCANDAL Statement from Mr. J. D, Stockton [From tho Morning PontJ Tbe Post and its Enemies Any scoundrel who wants to sell private letters must now go to tbe New York Sun. That paper published yesterday five columns of atro cions scandal, the reenlt of a deliberate conspiracy to injure the Homing Post arid John R. Young, the Managing Editor of the Now York Tribune. This scandal consists of arranged and garbled letters, purporting to be written confidentially by Mr. Young to Charles McCUntock, formerly the publisher of this paper. The charges made in the comments which string together these notes and telegrams are to the following effect: I. That Mr. Young sup plied the Post with the Associated Press news in violation of his duly. 11. That he bargained with Senator Cameron to sell him the editorial support of the Tribune lor certain sums of money to establish the Post. ILL That Cameron, Chase, Grow and Brewster were fleeced. IV. That otter making a bargain with Cameron, Mr. Young.on account of the Post, endeavored to sell this paper and the Tribune to Cnrlin for five thousand dollars. All of which I pronounce an infamous lie, lor which, if Mr. Young had not sued tho Sun for libel, 1 wonld. There is just enough troth In the article to make the ialsebood moro monstrous and disgusting. I propose now to do what I have loDg wished to do—to tell the public the whole story of the Morning Post from beginning to end, that it may be known what opposition the paper has met, and how savagely its enemies have struggled to destroy it. The Post was established in October, 1867, at two days'notice, at the earnest solicitation of Charles McCUntock, who was an old schoolmate of Mr. Young's, and then the cashier of the Press. It was not known then that Mr. MeClin tock was about to be dismissed by Col. Forney. It had long been the desire of Mr. Young and myeeli to eslablish in PhUadelphia a paper which -honld be independent of all factions, and per fectly true to Radical principles. I left the 7V»- bur.e at once, and took the editorship ef the Post, then a poor little penny paper, wlthont either capital or friends. It made its impression at once. The penny was in Its favor—i.s honesty eviry honest man felt. Then followed the need ol capital, the want of news, the perception of the fact that tbe receipts of a small penny mom ng paper wonld not equal its expenses. It was i ectseary to make a new movement, and it was made. First for the news. We applied to the Associated Press again and again, and were re lueed admittance to that monopoly—that associa tion for the suppression of newspapers through out the United States. We offered to pay an ex traordinary price for the privilege—for news is be capital of a newspaper—bnt stlU we were re lated. We were told that no more newspapers were wanted in PhUadelphia. Therefore we resolved to have the news, and employed Amos J. Cummings, then night editor ol the Tribune, to send it. He con tinned to do so for soma months, till the source of onr information was discovered, and we got tired of paying for tele grams that were of little Interest to the public. With this arrangement Mr. Young hod nothing to do. He may have suspected it. He was never informed of It by me. It was bv Mr. Young’s direct influence that this matter was stopped. Second. As for capital, money soon bcoame ne cessary, for probably no newspaper was ever started that did not lose in its firet year. Cer tain sums of money were borrowed from gentle men who took an Interest In the Post, and some of them have been repaid. The Tribune, the Press, the Sun, and almost every newspaper In New York and PhUadelphia, have received simi lar aid, and the whole transaction was a purely business one from beginning to end. Notes were eiven and endorsed, legal interest was paid; the gentleman who were kind enough to loan young men tbe capital to establish an independent pa per in PhUadelphia, did so because thev believed in independence, because they thought the in vestment a safe one, because they expected to be paid back. Not one dollar has ever been received by the paper as a subsidy or a gift—no bargain was ever made with Cameron, or Grow, or Brewster, or any man; no bargain could have been made without my knowledge, lor I, and I alone, am responsible" for every opinion nttered in these colnmnß. I have heard these stories abont Sena tor Cameron ever since Mr. McCUntock was dis missed the paper, but never once did he or his sob, or any of his friends, attempt to dictate to me my policy. Never did they ask me to advo cate a measure or oppose one. They have never even made a suggestion. The Post has been as independent of Senator Cameron, or Mr. Brew ster, or Mr. Grow, or Mr. Young, as it is of the Cham of Tartary. I have taken my own path, and sometimes It has run paraUel with, and sometimes it has crossed theirs. To this they can bear testimony. It is true they were onr creditors —bnt onr masters, never. And who started this infamous story, intended to ruin a yonng paper, and a few yonng men? Who ? A dismissed eaehier, who ooold not settle his books, who conld not account for the money entrusted to his care, who is known to, at least, have boirowed the money of the Post, which it needed, to pay his personal debts. A man in whom, because of Mr. Yonng’s years of boyish friendship, implicit confidence was reposed—a man who betrayed that confidence, who betrayed me, who betrayed Yonng, to whom he owed ad vancement ana position, and whose conduct as publisher plunged the Post, into em barrassments above which only re cently it has risen. This is Charles McUlintock, who bas dexterously escaped from all respon sibility for the debts el the Post, and who is now doing all in his power to revenge himself for hiß disgrace and dismissal. He is the man to whom, in the confidence of long years of mistaken friend ship, letters were icritten in strict confidence by Mr. I'oung, who gave or sold garbled extracts from those letters to the Sun, and who after tips will no longer dare to knock at the door of any gentle man, lest ho should hear the inevitable words, "Too lato ! too la to! you cannot enter now.” Who else took part in the conspiracy? Amos J. Cummings, the man employed to give the As sociated Press news to the Post; who afterwards was dismissed by Mr. Yonng for disobedience; who then became night editor of tho Sun. It is enough to say of him that, while on the Sun, he offered to procure for the Post tho Associated Press news, but that his offer was not accepted. His Is the revenge of tho wasp which stings, though it knows that to sting 1b to die. He ac cuses Mr. Young of giving U 6 the news; ho him self furnished it. Who else? Charles Dana—ox-As eistant Secretary of War, Managing Editor of the Sun, and hitherto presumed to bo a gentle man. He has said that he three or four times re fused to print these totters, because they were private letlers. He has said that he wanted to Injure the Tribune. He was told, lam informed, that this scandal wonld be worth $20,000 to the Sun, and consented at last to print it. "Twenty, thousand dollars, then, is the price for which Mr. Dana sells his' reputation as a gentleman. After this exposure the valuation will be thought too high. Mr. Dana has made himself tho accom plice in the baeeßt conspiracy known in Ameri can journalism. Who else? j. R. Sypher, dismissed from the editorial department of the Tribune, and sent to Philadelphia as a buslnoss agent by tho influence OUR WMOIiE COUNTRY. of bis friends. A man whom Bimon Cameron, whom he now abases, educated, and who re pays the kindness he met ns a boy by his ingra titude as a man. Of him I need say nothing, bnt that I am told that ho carried to New York the letlers which Mr. McCUntock betrayed. Much moro I might say, but this is enough. Those who aspire to the heights and purer air of journalism do not like to go down to the mud and filth of the swamps, amidst the crocodiles and snakes. The man who sells or prints private letters on any pretence, would listen at a key hole. Who will say that the Post, in all ltd stormy career, ever stooped to such means to injure its worst enemies? 1 have been asked by the pettv foes of those whom the Post has attacked, to print private letters, aDd personal scandal. Bat rather than have the policy of the paper thus tri umph, I would rejoice in Us defeat. If we can not make war as gentlemen, better abandon tho struggle altogether. Private letters we have now, bnt we prefer not to fol low Mr. DaDa's example. That is an excep tional perfidy and shame, and such let it remain. The Post has never depended upon any man or politician for success, and if we have received aid from friends, that is simply a matter of personal business. The Post depends solely npon itself and upon the public, and only by support of the public can any paper succeed. This journal was established to advocate principles, and he who asserts that it has ever been involved in any po litical job,or served any master bnt my own con science, has an Infinite capacity for lying which should be put to more profitable employment. Though the Post has met with all these trials— the opposition of the entire Associated Press, the enmity of onr local poUtical rings, the treachery of its trusted servants, the evils of calnmny— It baf risen above them aU. Without the Asso ciated Press, we have made it a good newspaper; with very little aid or capital, we have established it as a power in poUtics and a leading journal of Pennsylvania. A deliberate and disgraceful con spiracy has been formed to destroy the confi dence of the public in its integrity and character, and to destroy tbe character of Mr. Young, be cause of bis personal friendship tor me. Bat I have not the slightest fear that the assertions of men dismissed for treachery—men who betray sacred confidence—men who have confessed themselves to be beneath the notice of gentle men—will be accepted as more weighty than my own. If this is pride, I feel that it is that kind of pride of which I have the right to be prond. John D. Stockton, Editor of the Morning Post. Anns Beewster. Arrest of iff r. Cbarles A. Bona, Editor The N. Y. papers this morning contain the fol lowing: The editor of the Bun newspaper, Mr. Charles A.

And deponent further states that tho said article speaks of "How Chase,Cameron,Grow and Brewster were fleeced," meaning thereby that this deponent obtained cer tain snms from the Hon. Simon Cameron, Hon. S. P. Chase, the Hon.G. A. Grow and the Hon. B. H.

And deponent further states that the said article says that “the Commodore (moan ing deponent) ordered all hands to go a Ashing and to bait for Salmon,” meaning tnereby that the deponent was engaged in a clandestine man ner in endeavoring to obtain from ihe Hon. Salmon P. Chase sums of money to secure his (deponent's) support for hiß nomination for tho office of President of tho United States, all of which deponent denies as without the least foun dation in truth and as false and scan dalous, he never having directly or indi rectly rcceivod or ondeavored to recelvo or ex pected to receive any snm of money from the Hon. Salmon P. Chase or from any friend of the Hon. Salmon P. Chase. And deponent farther slates that the said article contains tho following: “The Commodore (meaning deponent), however, reminded Mr. McClure that the fourth pago of tho Tribune was ail powerfol; that its influence was a valuable consideration and would prove worth moro thau tho price paid for tho Post," all oi which deponent denies as without the least foun dation In trnth, and as false, and scandalous. And deponent furthor states that said article contains the following: "Grow struck heavily;" thereby meaning that the Hon. Galusha A. Grow was asked or cqmcellcd ! by Corrupt-means to.pay-cer tain earns of monoy to this deponent, nil of which deponent denies as wlthont the least foun dation in truth, and as false and scandalous. And doponent' farther states that said article contains tbo following: "It is understood at this time Camoroa was bled to the tone of $5,000,” thereby meaning that the Hon.

And doponent further states that said article contains tho following: “PiiiLADKLi uiA.

He was to hare spoken at Pulaski yesterday, but at Athene, Ala., received a de spatch from his daughter at Greenville, an* nouncing the death, at that place, of his sou Robert, and he was hurrying on to be present at the funeral. He left Huntsville yesterday morning at 6.30 o’clock; arrived at Decatur at 8.30. At this point the Ex-President and party were provided with a special train, subject to Mr. Johnson’s order, and to stop whenever he required. At Athens the train arrived at 10.30. There was assembled a large crowd, who cheered and called for Mr. Johnson. As he approached the door of the car, accompanied by Col. John Williams and Mr. Redfleld, of the Cincinnati Commercial, a des patch was handed to him bv a messenger from the telegraph office. Not having his spectacles with him, Mr. Johnson handed the despatch to Colo nel Williams, and asked him to read It, which he did as foUows : Greenville, April 23,1869.— Andrew Johnson, Nashville. Brother Robert died snddenly last night. He will be buried to-morrow. Mbs. D. Pattersos. At this shocking intelligence Mr. Johnson’s features, always pale, became visibly paler. He shaded his eyes a moment with his hand—the crowd outside still cheering. He stepped on to the platform, and in a few simple words explained to his friends the recent affliction which had over taken his family, excusing himself from address ing them. At Columbia, Pulaski and Franklin, where large crowds were assembled, he came out from the car and shook hands with friends and acquaintances who came up to offer their condo lences. When the train reached this city, Mr. Johnson and Colonel Williams came down to the city from the Decatur depot on the Collogo street cars, and took a carriage for the Chattanooga Depot, and left on the 6 P. M. train for Chatta nooga. It wa6 our pleasure to know the deceased.in timately In former years, daring his temporary residence here as a Representative of the Legisla tnre. and especially during the stormy porioalm-' mediately preceding hostilities between the sec tions. Colonel Johnson, like his illustrious father, was a consistent, fearless and uncompro mising Southern Unionist from first to last, and one of ihe last speeches in behalf ot the “Union, toe Constitntion and the laws,” made in this city before the ordinance of secession, was de livered by him in the Coort-honse, and reported in this paper. He whs a young man of fine abilities. He had his faults and weaknesses, like other men, bnt he was ever generous and chlval mne, a true friend, an affectionate brother and eon. Ladies’ Day. ll is to be hoped that the ladies will appro priate the day (Saturday) of this week which Mr. John Wannmaker has set apart for their special use in inspecting his new and extensive stock of boys’ clothing. Everybody concedes that in the other departments of his new establishment he ha 6 worked wonders in advancing stylo and slardard of clothing, and doubtless just as groat an advance has been made by him in this de partment, which most needs improving. It is a fact that many indies have been compelled to buy tbeir boys’ clothing in New York, because they could not find here the stylo and general charac ter of clothing thev desired their sons to wear. They will see that" the day for that is past if they will examine the new stock of Mr. Wana muker. (Al ls AND FANOICS. _ How abont the Twitehell slung-shot ? - When is Haggerty’s bail to bo sold up ?
