That the London agent of the Associated
Press denied he had ever heard of it, and Said
be could find no traces of it.
That one of the Associated Press papers, the
Sim, gave the number of 8,000 Jews killed, as•
stated in official despatches.
The leadingrirews-here=and-in:-Europe an
nounced over
,their own • signature that there
had been disturbances and " slaughter in Ron-•
mania, init that, happily, the first reports were
exaggerated.
During the entire controversy the Tribune
and .Express were absolutely insulting in their
charges ; the Situ having forged an• "official
despatch" which gave the precise number killed,
kept silent ; and the World, with characteristic '
fairness, gaVe the facts. The Tribune Made
quite a handle of the fact that the A. P.
despatch was dated Constantinople, whereas in
fact the news was furnished in Paris. That as
'a - technical point 'was' fairly made, although
newspaper men doubtlesS appreciated its feeble
ness.
Mr. SiM l onton ; the general agent of the As
sociated Press,is the responsible owner and
'conductor= of , the-San -Francisco , B Old in
which paper he sends the Asiociated Press
news. A file of that paper is before us, and
with the above resume in mind we respectfully
call attention to the matter sent to the Bul
letin by Mr. Simonton.
In the Bulletin of June 2d is the following:
CoNsiTANTustom., June I.—The fearful
.vindictiveness of. the native Christians in Rou
mania, a TurkiSh:province ' against the Jewish,
' - population;'ciilniinittecron - Sunday lir a wiroleli
sale butchery of the Jews. A thousand men,
women and children -were dragged from their
homes and killed. The work of slaughter
goes on in the interior. The authorities have
made no move- to check it. The Christians,-
took advantage of the absence of the reigning
Prince Charles, and at a preconcerted signal
began the extermination of their enemies."
Now then, Snip-Snap, where did that come
from,,Paris, Constantinople; or the Democrat
extra? It purports to come from Constantino
ple, but, of course, is not. It tells the story
.01 tle Roumania slaughter—was it true or
false? And accompanying it is the following
editorial: - - r
WnWMMM!MSEMM3MMIP
"We have by telegraph au accolmtiOf a fearful
entbreak artiongthe'dative poPtiblion- Of Rou
mania, a people nominally Christian, but semi
barbarous, liks. thd Albanians, Druses and
other Eastern hordes. The fanaticism of these
people culminated in the destruction of a thou
sand men, women and children. The fanatics
watched for an occasion when their Chief or
--Prince-was away, -to commence the- work,of
destruction, showing clearly enough that there
_ was - a premeditated plan to slaughter .their_
enemies. Had there been such a demonstra
tion among Moslems, it would have been but the
repetition of old outrages, and the affair would
have been spoken of as the natural result of
Moslem fanaticism. It is to the disgrace of
the nineteenth century - that - there 'ShOtild be
occasion anywhere to associate even the Chris
tian name, when assumeu - even by a send-bar
barons people, with scenes of finaticiSm and
slaughter.."
He knevrall about it, it seems. Thorolighly
familiar with the "semi-barbarous hordes,"
the
editor goes for them quite genuinely. Then
came the controversy as to the report, upon
which, in a leader published in the Bulletin
on the Bth of June, the whole matter is satis
factorily summed up, as follows:
TrIE ROUMANIA MASSACRE.
"The conflicting reports touching this subject
which so painfully agitated the public mind a
few daysago, leave the matter still iu doubt as
to the e:cteut of the outrages committed. The
riot in Batuschang, Moldavia, which is re
ported as a trivial affair, simply a quarrel
among school boys, was undoubtedly a serious
atlair, as this is the way all the attacks upon
the Jews are commenced. Boys are set to
playing, then to quarrelling with Jewish boys,
and this is made the pretext for the violent and
ofttinies bloody scenes which follow. Great
interest is felt to know more about Roumania
with its 5,000,000 of inhabitants, of whom
500,000 are Jews, and we are pleased to know
that the distinguished Orientalist and traveler,
Rabbi Sneersohn, at the request of many
prominent, citizens,will deliver an address upon
the subject some evening of next week. Rabbi
Sneersolm has been twice in Roumania,,
is intimately familiar with the character of its
inhabitants, the nature of the Governthent and
its political history. We may anticipate a most
interesting discourse from one thus qualified to
speak."
Observe the italicised passages. The famili
arity of the writer with the subject discussed
is truly admirable. There was no doubt' in his
mind as to the. fact, only the extent of the out
rages. And then those boys, too. The little
rascals, it would seem, do this sort of thing
frequently, and then, before the military can
get out, they slaughter from 4,000 to S,OOO
of the innocent lambs of Jewry.
Out of thine own mouth-piece Mr. Simon
ton we prove thee a trickster and a falsifier.
And out of the columns of the Associated
Press papers in California we prove the writers
in the Trilinne and the Exi-ess either groSsly
ignorant or contemptibly false to decency and
professional honor.
Thnekeray on the Teacup
Mr. Thackeray furnishes us with the prettiest
little synopsis we know of—at once graceful,
tender and picturesque—of tea-drinking wo
mankind. True, he makes George Warrington
laugh at Pendennis for patronizing the teacup,
while he is taking another swig at the beer.
"Pen drinks tea,' he tells the Major ; "it's only
fit for old women." But turn to the chapter
where Captain Shandon sludlles off to drink
away his newly-acquired five-pound note, fid
dling alit in his waistcoat, while his poor, pa
tient, wasted wife turns sadly aside, after a
faint protest; she had hoped to have him to
dinner herself to-day—but he was off to the
tavern, and there was no chalice of that now.
"So Mrs. Shandon went to the, cupboard, and,
in lien of a dinner, made herself some tea. And
in'these varieties of pain, of which we-spoke
anon, what a part of confidante had that poor
teapot played ever ,

DICKENS AS A DAN AND AN AUTHOR.
• It is generally suppoied. that the. pecuniary
success of .Mr. Dickens': career • haa,. been at
least equal to his literary reputation. Bat his
history is another example-of the great results
which may frequently sprifig 'froin small b.pr
ginnings. His parents were far Qom rich; and.
in his younger- days Charles was feckless in
his, personal. expenditnies, and :apparently un
stable in character. Many anecdotes -are told
of his youthful escapades in his :native village,
and one which -was related_to the__ writer by.„
one Of Dickens'iriends - , now a noted London
journalist, ,is , somewhat singular. While
writing: his 'early. sketches for the Morn
ing Chronicle, he was, or fancied him
self to 'be, • deeply. " enamored' 'of a young
lady named Enima. Floyd: She lived at a dis
tance of about three miles from his father's
house. Midivay between the two Was.a pest
office, where Dickens mailed his manuscript to.
the London editor. In those days it was op
tional to prenay a letter or inflict . the expense
on the recipient. Postage was then eight
pence an ounce and Dickens, fearing' that un
paid matter might be refused, was compelled.
to borrow the necessary funds from the village..
grocer: - ' ; When" possession" of ' he
would hurry. past the office to see his innate
rota, and, having,ntany. friends, he contracted
1. habit of stoppina at the Ehns a wayside
tavern, and When he left there were, of course,
no funds to pay the letter due in London,
This went
,on_ - for ' some time, until Miss
Emma Floyd, alarmed by-the repOlts 'of her
lover's unsteadiness,. cast him off, and Dickens,
in despair,, as was said, resorted to wild life for'
a time. . -There is"a singular: story told of .a.
a
mistake liftade ~ u nder these circurnStanCOS.
Returning-!-home` • froni.:"Ahe ••"Eltris".',in . the
,the.t a.-young--lady
about Einma'S height, and resembling her in
gait and general appearance. •In a most
agitated manner he at once made a fervent
declaration of love, renewed his protests
of undying attachment, and begged for
giveness for all his errors in the past. The
young lady happened to be the daughter
of the rector of the parish,. and, there
fore, of course, • slightly acquainted with
the young author. His appeal was so eloquent,
and his sincerity so- manifest, . that Miss
heart was touched, and she proni
ised to speak to her father. The next morn
lug_Citarles Dickens received a letter from the
Reverend Recter, expressing his_surprise at SQ
sudden a declaration to .his daughter after- so
slight an acquaintance.;_ but. as he recognized
his ability, so he would . accept his
„vows of
amendment f and if bah "parties remained in
the same frame of mind for two yearS, and the
gentleman could show any prospect of .main
taining a wife, he would not object to their
-union. This singular double engagement
capped the climax of his social difficulties in
hiS native village, and within a fortnight of the
unexpected rencontre he'renfoied to London
and entered upon the labor of his life.
-- When Dr. Black; - the - then - editor - ofthe
Morning Chronicle, proposed to engage hint as
reporter in the Police Courts, Dickens was-re
, duced - alinost to the last extremities. He lived
, in a small garret-room in Wych street; he was
indebted to his landlady for nearly a- month's
rent. His watch was in the hands of "his un
cle "—a gentlem_anwith_three _golden balls
round the corner—and-his-stock of- linen--was
more like that of a Frei:a refugee of 1852 than
,that-of a prosperous-yoking-journalist.---But-in
a few weeks-all was changed. Having obtained
a situation upon the paper, and finding his own
proper literary work remunerative, Mr. Dickens
appeared another being. lie was all energy, and
his, versatile powers rapidly made themselves
conspicuous; so much so, indeed, that he was
not yet five-and-twenty when engaged to
write the Pickwick Papers. Chapter by chap
ter they were published as soon as written, and,
however admirable the transactions of the
"Pickwick Club" are as a whole, traces of
want of continuity are apparent iu the work.
The celebrated "Mrs. 13ardell " was drawn
from a living portrait ; she was a Mrs. ATM
Ellis, who'kept eating eatinouse near Doctors'
Commons, on Great Knight Rider street. "Mr.
Snodgrass," in his principal characteristics, and
even the description of his personal appearance,
was at once accepted as a caricature of a Mr.
Winters, a noveau riche, who might be seen in
the season every afternoon at four o'clock ogling
the ladies in the Ladies' Mile in the Park, and
in the summer at Cheltenham Bath, and the
fashionable watering places. The "Fat Boy"
was acknowledged to be sketched from the ser
vant of a gate-keeper. in Essex, on the London
and Chelmsford road. Many other characters
in his novels have also,from time to thne,been
traced to real' 'characters. Their author, how
ever, in most instances, has denied the authen
ticity of the portraits. If, however, the great
author, who has just, left us, did not paint from
the living figure heads the individual actors in
his novels, he certainly drew life from,,its broad
lights and shades as it actually was. Oliver
Twist, Bleak House and David Copperfield,ex
posed some of the most glaring wrongs in the
lower and middle strata of English society; and
suggested ameliorations which were ultimately
carried out in the management of the Jail and
the Work-house. The reform in Chancery,.
, practice, nominally introduced by -Lords
Brougham and Lyndhurst, may also be re
ferred almost directly to the influence of the
' novelist.
But it is of the Man, rather than the author,
we are now thinking. Charles Dickens, al
though, perhaps, far from strictly temperate in
his habits, was a warm friend and constant
advocate of all measures or projects aimed at
the diminution of the national vice of drunken
ness. During the great agitation of the tem
perance movement in 1857, Lord Shaftesbury,
Mr. Dickens, Mr. Fawcett, and Mr. John
Stuart Mill, met together in one of the rooms
adjoining St. James' Hall to devise a scheme
for meeting the increased and increasing evils,
which Lord Shaftesbury argued were the re
sult of the excitement Caused by the Crimean
war, and the return of the soldiers from active
service. It was a singular quartette.
Lord Shaftesbury, the representative
of the Evangelical laymen of
England; John. Stuart Mill, one of the most
recondite thinkers of modern times; Mr. Faw
cett, an acute mathematician, a politician of
the most advanced school, and completely
blind; Mr. Dickens, the goOd-hUnaored, genial
-painter of scenes drawn from every-day life,
the novelist par excellence-and, singularly
- miough,-it was the pen of the latter that. wrote,
the rough draft of the ideas and spirit of the
numerous pamphlets upon the subject which
flooded. England during 1858 and 1859. AT
other social reform, the chief credit 'of whidh
inust be given to him, is the spread of the
principles of Life Assurance through the
masses. Every year in Household WOrds,
and subsequently in All the Year Round,
he published a- series of articles demonstrat
fn_the.-- Tactical advatm • .r

detail was told with..such vivid .accaracy that
the whole party were astonished, and Mr.
Lang refused to believe that Dickens had never
been in India, for while his own stories were
founded on fact, Dickens's were the--fruits of
the imagination of the moment: - This, per

-Between hintielf. and Thickeray there
was never a single feeling of jealousy, or aught
but the moSt . affectionate_ regard: , The press
and the critics were arrayed in two camps—

other the graphic hand of the Pickwick Papers.
But when-Thackeray died andleft the Adven

land than the great rival who has now fol
lowed him to the grave.
We recently' examined a pair 'Of - moccasins,
the workmanef old " Mother Friend," a
squaw of Shakopee's band of. the Sioux In
dians, whose village only fifteen years ago_oc
cupied the site of the now thriving tbwn of
- Shalropee - , - 141innesot
They are made of buckskin, fine and white,
and soft as velvet, the squaws _
-surpassing in
the excellence of their tanning and dressing of
skins. The instep is an ornamental piece of
porcupine strips of variegated colors, set in and
braided together as in basket-work; the seams
are all on the upper part, the sewing being done
with fine selected sinews of the deer; at the
ankle is attached a high, encircling flap, to
which are buckskin thongs to wind about the
leg and tie in front.
Moccasins are much worn by the women of
the far West as house slippers, and in the dry
seasons are preferred by pedestrians on long
journeys. In very still, cold weather of the
inland high latitudes, they often prove the
warmest covering for the fdet that the
hunters and pioneers can procure, though
having at command the most approved devices
of the sons of St. Crispin.
To the uninitiated, the moccasins of the di&
ferent tribes seem so much alike as hardly to
be distinguishable, yet they each present to
those wise in those trifles that make the sum of
human wisdom, traces by which they may be
as easily detected in their origin as our own
trade oracles determine an eastern from a New
York shoe, or it maybe fix its exact locality.
Indeed the imprint of the moccasined foot in
the dust.on the well-worn trails of the prairie,
Or the muddy margin of the stream or lake,
will indicate unerringly to The experienced eye
the trace of friend or foe. The white wan's
foot is wide or large, turned outward. The
Indian's foot is usually narrow, medium-sized
or small, the track straight, or turned slightly
inward ; two little tabs wide apart at the heels
betray the Dakota or Sioux. One tab marks
the Winnebago, three the Chippewa. These
distinguishing marks are no doubt meant to
indicate nationality, as also, the mode of dresa
ing the hair, or any other feature of the cos
tume, which, though it varies among tribes,
may be described generally and briefly, as.
breech cloth and nakedness, blanket 'and paint.
The manufacture of moccasins is one of the
few branches of legitimate industry that; syste
matically pursued, provides a weloodie addition
to the scanty living that hardly suffices to save
the skulking bands on the frontiers from star
vation. The moccasin of the Sioux, cheap and
durable, is considered the best for Service, and
ranges in value from fifty cents (cosh pOppi
zopta) to $1 30 (Murzez skar tonka cosh poppi
zopta) in specie, for your copperhead of the
plains, proudly ignorant of finance, scorns
the greenback.
The moccasins.of a chief, oi.,a brave, are not
less important auxiliaries of dress than are
this portion of the dress of a fashionable_ lady
in civilized life ; and in full dress, trailing in
the dust from the heels of the "Bucks, may
often be seen otter skins that wood bring fabu
lous prices on Broadway: or other costly fur
skins, ornamented with so much skill and ex
penditure of labor as to make them valuable
indeed.
'The superlatively beaded wash leather imita
tion moccasins exposed for sale at Niagara, or
peddled in the streets of eastern cities
by degenerate mongre of historic races,
are not those •of which we' are•
writing. As it curiosity, the latter may answer
every purpose, Midas a souvenir they may sat
isfy the tourist; but if one would know what a
genuine Indian moccasin really is, he must go_
to other sources. of supply than these, fin' they
are seldom fowl& in aboriginal purity except
among the Indians of the plains.

All the leading medical authorities recognize the value
of diffusive stimulants. Numerous eminent 'physicians
and surgeons might be named who have advocated their
employment in the treatment of a large class of dis
orders. No Dispensary is considered complete without
them. They are prescribed in ati public and private
Hospitals, and administered by all bedside practitioners.
But the difficulty has been to obtain
Alcoholic Liquors Pure.
The pungent aroma of the fusel oil and biting acids
present in all of teem can be scented as the glass is.
raised to the lips. The nauseous, flavor of these active
poisons is perceptible to the palate, and a burning sen
sation in the stofnach attests:their existence when:the .
noxious draught has gone down. Paralysis, idiocy, in
sanity and death are the pernicions fruits of such pota
tions. '
Medical science , asks for a pure stimulant to 1190 as a
specific, which; while it diffuses itself through the eye
tem more rapidly than any other known agent, is
brought into direct and active contact with the ',seat of
disease. It is the . property of the stimulant to diffuse
and by the aid of its peculiar nutritious compeneut parts
. to invigorate, reitalate, counteract and restore, and it is
by the-happy-union-of tkle principle ofactivity with the
principles of invigoration and restoration that enables
PURE WHISKY
