BOGUS AND WORTHLESS NEWS
SPECIMENS OF LIVELY ENTERPRISE
Rebel Despatches from the Associated Press
Complaint from One ofthe Vietima
Our columns have been so much crowded
for a day or two with advertisements and
with news which the Associated Press did not
furnish to its vassals, that we could not con
tinue our republication of the complaints
made by the Philadelphia papers against the
monopoly. We present to-day the next of the
series. It is an editorial from the Philadelphia
l'ress, protesting against some of those faults
of the Associated Press which induced us to
abandon it. It must be remembered that this
article was written before the American Press
Association was organised, and so it is an ex
pression of honest opinion.
“Ie this Thing to Continue?"
[ From the Philadelphia Press. Oct. 26,1859.)
It is known to the public that the leading
newspapers throughout the country pay, in
connection with what is called the Associated
Press at Now York, largely audpromptly lin ,
late news. Very frequently much of this to unim
portant and uninteresting. 3foreover, tnany of the
despatches from the South are evidently forwarded
by persons whose anti-Union feelings give them a
peculiar tint. Through this source, also, the
newspapers receive a summary of news from
Europe, so strangely reported that ofttimes a
report of horse-races usurps most of the space.
The one thing, needed . , however, is the very
latest news.
In common with our contempporari es
througliout the Union, vre, on Saturday, pub
lished the following paragraph, supplied by
the agency of the Associated • • _
,atem, news received over the Atlantic
Cable :
Virtisa, Oct. 21,—The Crown Prince of
I
Prussia has . arrived here; and was well re-
I ceived by the Emperor.' ,Peace now seems as
sured between Prussia and AuStria."
Unfortunately, this is okl news. In the
London Times, of October 8, we find this par
.agranh:
" VIENNA, Oct. B—Evening.—The Crown
Prince of Prussia arrived shortly after 9 P.
1 M., and was received by the Emperor and the
; highest military and civil authorities. Upon •
! the Prince leaving the train the Emperotad-
I vauced, and gave him a most cordial greeting.
The Emperor wore the uniform ; of a ,colonel
lof a „Prussian regiment, while the Crown
Prince of Prussia was dressed as an officer'
I holding a similarrank in the Austrian army.
1 The military bands struck up the Prussian tt-
I tional anthem. The Prince, baying reviewed
the guard Of honor appointed to escort him,
proceeded with the Emperor and his suite in
I'
eourt tarringes to the imperial residence:at.
! li ofburg.• '
1 In addition, we find the following in the
1 London Times of Octobet9: .
1 " Vit;:syia, October 8, Evening.—The Crown
! Prince of Prussia received the - Chancellor of
I the Empire and tip- ,other members of the
I Ministry to-day, and-his Royal Highness had
1 a lung conversation with „Herr Giskra. The,
Prince will leave early to-morrow morn
ing,eia Cormons,for Venice,on the way for the
East."
Surely this is "most tolerable and not to be
endured." The arrival and departure of a
person is duly published in London on the tith
of this month; the scene being in Vientia, and,
exactly a fortnight later, the Associated Press
gives its paymasters, the A tneric.in BEMS.
pZitifii; - a." despatch; dated .• October
21, - ' misrepresenting the facts by staling, nineteen
dulls qfter he had departed for Venice," the Crown
Prince of Prussia has arrived 1. - o us
this seems like a fabricated despatch. • Perhaps
the .London agent, busy amon,g the jockeys
and turf-men at Tattersall's, had not noticed
the important fact of the heir of Prussia pay
ing a friendly visit to the ruler of Austria, or
it is possible that the omission was supplied
nearer home, on a perusal of the London
papers.
This is the sort of news, received' as cable de
spatches, which newspaper proprietors ''pay for
heavily, at gobl rates, to the Asoseiated Press. Is
this thing to continue!

Wenzel Kopla's 'Concert-
[The following notice was crowded out of
our c.oluirins oii Saturday and yesterday:]
Que of the very best concerts of the season
was that given by Mr. Wenzel Kopta at Musi
cal Fund Hall, on Friday evening last. The
programme was well selected and excellently
well carried out. We have indeed seldom at
tended a concert which, evinced
,more careful
preparation. Every detail was perfect, amithe
different performers elicited frequent and
hearty applause from the large and apparently
delighted audience. It is of course unneces
sary
,to say more of the playing of Mr. Kopta
and Mr. Wolfsohn than that it was worthy of
their great reputations. The always popular
Kreukcer , Sonata *as ' most delightfully ren
dered by these two gentlemen, who gave also
some very charming soles., The piano accom
paniments of Mr. Pearce added greatly to the
beauty of Mr. Kopta's execution of the Polo
naise de Concert, which- was rapturoualr.,
ceived: 'Mr. Emil gagers songs met
much , favor. ,This gentleman, who is
almost a stranger tp Philadelphia audiences,
has an exceptionally, fine baritone voice, and
would speedily become au aeknowledged fever,
its if oftener heard. Miss Susan. Palton-
Kelleher gave two of; those • simple, pleasing
little ballads which she sings so well, and also
acquitted herself very creditably in Gonnod's
ti.AVe Maria ;" the exquisite' and perfectly
executed accompaniment bypianii, violin and
organ dividing with the fair, singer the plaudits
of the delighted listeners. -
Last, but by no means least, we would make
honoraige'mention-of the most novel•feature in
this very attractive concert, viz.: the singing
by M. Pearee's' Admirably trained chorns of
Men and . boys. Tht?Se•Whe have beaid the
cholrs'..itt St. Mark's And 'St. Clements, were
of course 'aware of the high degree of musical
attainment reached under Mr. Pearee'ainstrue
ttion. But even to the initiated, it was like a
Inertrevelation; when, to Perform the Canon
.for threeivolees- 7 .Pe?pWe i cfpri,i' there stepped
upon the stage the three little singers, evidently
masters .of the situation, tuid :filled the hall

PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, MARCH. 29 1870
HOW PHILADELPHIANS ARE NAUED
The Carteslnes of the Dlreetori.
It is singular what a great variety,there is in
the names borne by the inhabitants of this
world, and a Directory of a large city makes
a curious and interesting study. Names of all
kinds appear there, and from the nature of
some of them, it would seem that the ances
tors of those who now bear these names
—some being almost unpronounceable—must
have been very hard-pushed when looking
around for a cognomen. Many names appear
but once, and then there are °atom which run
into the hundreds, and some even go as high
as thousands. Animals, places, articles of
wear, trades, fish, fowl, liquors, and, in fact,
almost everything imaginable seem to have
been used in supplying , names for the
people. Smith, Jones, Brown, Campbell,
Kelly, Johnson, aro the most popular, and oc
cupy dozens of pages of the Philadelphia
Directory for 1870. Then the Smiths, the
Browns and the Joneses will persist in con-'
ferring the title of John upon their children.
In case of advertised letters for John Brown,
John Jones or John Smith, there must: be
many puzzled individuals; the postkoffice win
dow must be besieged by quite an army of
individnals, and the chances are ten to one
against the epistle getting into the hands of
the person for whom it was intended. The
subject of name's is actirious one, and in order
to illustrate it a little, as well as to give
slight idea, of the kind of people living in
Philadelplda,we have gathered together some:
specimens.

THE NEW YORE DEMOCRATIC FIGHT.
The Slight of the Ilimr...The Iletoilono
'Tome& Demotracy.
The World this morning has the following
upon the Democratic tight in New York :
Tammany General Committee, comprising
the last fail elected 339 representatives of. the
Democracy of New York city, were last week
called to a meeting in Tammany Hall Monday
night by their Chairman, Mr. William M..
Tweed, on demand of a majority. of their
members (187)—the Young Democracy.
The hope and purpose of the leaders of the
Reform - Democrats was:
1; To dethrone, repudiate, and expel the
corrupt and treacherous man who, at Albany,
has been frustrating every effort of Reform
Democrats to restore self-government to this
metropolis and to make that self-government
honest and frugal..
2. To demand with the united voice of Tam
many from the representatives of the State
Democracy in the Albany Legislature the
speedy passage of laws abolishing Ring and
Radical commissions ; extirnating the corrupt
Board of Supervisors; making the terms of alt
executive officers, elected or appointed, end
on the same day and date—thus insuring the
people's power at every election to make a
healthful revolution by the ballot ; and ordain
ii b every security in a thorough-going elec
tion law to the ballot-box itself. This, of
course, was death to the Ring in the very
citadel of its life.
Wherefore the Ring and all it alli es , tool s ,
and stipendiaries 'spent mient, from
the hour of that extorted call till yesterday
noon, in the attempt to cdnvert their minority
in Tammany General Committee into a ma
jority. Appeals, threats, proffered bribes, and
every kind of influence known to honest or
dishonest men were brought to bear. It was
in vain. Last week. when the World demanded
of Tweed the convoking of Tammany, we
counted upon 187 trim and faithful Reform
Democrats. Last night one man, and one man
only, was absent from his post. The Ring saw
itself irretrievably ruined, and took refuge in
ignominious and cowardly flight. To the call
of their chairman they dared not come to
gether. Rather than be beheaded, they chose
to skedaddle. And this was the way of it :
The Sachems of a aumany Society (not
Committee) are of the Ring. There is. A.
Oakey Hall, Ring Mayor; Peter B. Sweeny,
Ring Chamberlain; John J. Bradley, his
brother-in-law; Samuel B. Garvin, Ring Dis
trid-Attothey; Matthew T. Brennan. Ring
Police Coniinissioner ; Isaac Bell, Ring Com
missioner. of Charities and Correction ;•,Tames
13. Nicholson, Ring Commissioner of Charitins
and Correction ; Joseph Dowling, Ring Police
J ustice '•E. B. ad, Ring Pugleman ; N. Jar
vis, Jr., Ringnigleman. These Sachems hold
the keys of Tammany Ball. Foreseeing their
fate—the end of their commissions, their
plunder, and their- power—theY resolved
to shut the • doors of Tammany Hall
against the ' General Committee, though
called by.its chairman; and to pretemlfears
of harm to .Taruntany at the hands of her own
majority. At the hour appointed in the of
tidal call, Tammany Hall was thus closed.
Ring Coternissioner Brennan'S several hun
dred policemen guarded the still virgin doors;
and Ring - Charity Commissioner James B.
Nicholson, Father of the Council-of Sachems,
denied to 187 out of 339 members of Tammany
General.Counittee the admission which was
thew right to the old Democratic Wigwam.
These 187 members (a majority of 3i else-
Where peaceably atsembled, peaceably but
unanimously- passed resolutions suitably as
serting the demands Of the Young Democracy
as to the Legislature, suitably asserting their
contempt for the.cowardly flight of the Ring
from a vote,. and then they peaceably dispersed
to their homes. The resolutions of the Ring.
Sachems look to a Ben Butler style of recon
struction of Tammany General Committee:
Last fall it was elected at the primaries by the
people. Now the Sachems threaten its "Re- '
construction," and "a consolidated Genera:
Committee."
It is just as cowardly as the flight of the
Ping, but it is a great deal more ridiculous.
Such a Tennessee Tammany Committee could
neither poll nor cheat enough votes into the
liallot-hoxest,O tnake it Worth the while of
their own Ring Police Commission inspectors
and canvassers to count them. We should
too much dignify the Ring Sachems' " Recon
struction" , plot to say that we, defy it. It is
only, contemptiple. ; The Young Democracy
have a clear majorit y." of Tammany General
'l'
Committee. lhe oung Democracy count
thousands anotinithil people to the Ring's ten.
These two facts insure the ultimate deliver
ance of New York city and State -from Riu,g
corruptions and Ring rule, as they witness
the deliverance of the Democracy of the Union
from the Ring millstone.

Did he desire such a system as this? Gen.

mildly ohiected to the mustering-out cisme
but he assented to the bill, as also did the Esc- ,
rotary of War. Gen. Sherman's view of the ,
inhumanity was very partial. It •

M. de Montalembert's funeral took place 'at
the Church of St, Clotilde. i The Temps says
that two or three thousand persofis attended:
it. Among those present 'were M AT: Emile 01-
:Darn, Bullet, .Thiers, Sic.; the deptita-:

pall-bearers were the Count Darn—Minister
of Foreign Affairs'; 'M. Curillier-Pleury, of
the Academy: the Prince de Broglie, M.
Czartoryski, M. Dufarire and, M. 'do • Cot./
cedes. The Univers states that : M. •de
ontalerubert's death was announced
by the . preacher at Notre .Dame on
Sunday morning (Father Felix), and that it
„fell like a thmuterektp upon the immense con.:"
gregation. The preacher, .who could hardly
' control his feelings, said ; ," The Chia& is not •
ungrateful; she will remember him who so
valiantly defended her whom he called his
mother: All Catholics will be'sensible of the
'loss which they have just sustained in that
great man; and you, gentlemen, will not for
get
to pray for the repose of that soul now. in,
the presence of our lsord Jesus Christ." The
literary activity of M'. de Montalembert wa.4
only interrupted (the Moniteur says) by his
death. Every morning the Sister of Charity
who waited upon him brought him, his
books, the journals, and three pencils, .
black, red and blue, with . which he anno
tated everything that he read. One cannot
take up a volume of his numerous library
with
oout being able to gather from these. anuota-,
tions the impression which the honk had made,
on its possessor. The Francais states that
among the papers left by the deceased' is. a •

death, and that although the. hand' which 'he'

in his appearance indicated that a catastrophe
