The story was doubtful in itself, as all such stories emanating from that source are. And now that the ether side of it is made known, it turns out to be only another move in Mr. menton's old game. It should be understood that Mr. Simonton, N the manager of, the New York Associated -Press, is the principal, if not the entire; - owner of the .San Francisco BULLETLN, and it , is understood that the monopoly of news which that gentleman has enjoyed on _ the Pacific coast is huii principal interest in retaining., the managership of the New York Associated Press. _This monopoly lias at last lieen_broken up. The American Press Association has availed itself of the completion of the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph line to furnish the Cali fornia papers with' earlier and better news than Mr: Simonton's monopoly could obtain, and as the natural result upon such a concern, the most desperate efforts are now made to break down the enterprise which has liberated the Pacific press from its old thraldom. This Sacramento story of the manager of the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph line being caught stealing despatches from the wires of the Western Union line, turns out to be a ridiculous falsehood. Owning to a temporal) interruption of the wires of the Atlantic anti Pacific Hoe, an operator appears to have stepped across a balcony to ascertain if the Wester] Union wires were working, which would en able him to judge of the probability of his own wires resuming work. He appears to have been fired at by a Western Union operator and out of this, charges and counter-charges have been evolved, and a large canard concocted for the benefit of Mr. Simonton and his masters. The publicity given to this absurd story, however, has betrayed the interesting fact that this cry of "stop thief!" has been raised fol the purpose of covering the track of a series of petty larcenies of which the Associated Press papers, on the Pacific coast, have been guilty for some time past. The fresher energy of the American Press Associatiorr bas been so suc cessful in furnishing the California press with all the lirrtant news of the world, in advance of its fossil competitor, that the de pendants of the latter have found it necessary to steal the news of the former, in order to keep up in the race for public favor. By way of testing this fact, one or two decoys have lately been resorted to, with the most satifac tory results. Two items of news appeared, last Saturday, in the California Associated Press papers, one announcing that Mr•. Bocker, the British Consul at San Francisco, an estimable bachelor, had been divorced from his wife, and another giving the particulars of a letter to General Dent from President Grant an nouncing his intention to visit California. Both baits were swallowed with the ease of professional experts, and prove that the thieves were old hands at the business. Such disclosures as these are very dis creditable to the New York Associated Press. That it should encourage the fabrication of a succession of mean and scandalous falsehoods against a rival association, and at the,same time permit its agents to steal the news of that association, must be admitted to indicate au unpleasantly low state of morals among the principal representatives of the New York press. Anything like a fair• and honorable competition in the legitimate business of col lecting and supplying news to the American press should be encouraged, by the Am.;rican _rople—a,s--an—enterprise—in -which 'they—are directly interested. Such a competition the American Press Association offers and invites. It asks no favors. It is willing to be -judged by ite work. It believes that the seven news papers, in New York that now assume the right to 'control the news of• the world, assume a right which is utterly untenable and ridiculous. And it means to continue to vindicate this belief in tbe future, as It has done during the last six months, by such practical demoustre trolls as will convince the most incredulous that:the days of news-monopolies are not only cumbered, but already gone, 4111DGIE PAXSON. With customary iitjust co and the Age, this ihorningjsuggesta that Judge Pax- son's recent admirable charge , to the Grand . 1 jury, and the expression determinatien to punish criminals with severity, were inspired by the'vicinity of the fall elections. The 4ge 1 1 also insinuates tbat'J'udge PaxsOh's Chalge was ivtendeti judges, and ; it thereopon takes up the cudgel and strikes a blow for Judge Ludlow. We are unable •tO perceive , in what manner Judge Paxson's remarks can be construed , into a charge against' his ; brethren ppm the,,beneh, and vie do not bellevete ' , had . the ;lightest in tention of finding, fault with them. .0n the contrary, there is good reason for' making the assertion that he thinks they 'have done • their duty completely, and hone ofithem better than Judge Ludlow, whom everybody regards'as an upright and capable officer. The insinuation that Judge Paxson's determination to impose extreme penalties upon criminals convicted in his court, is tin- exhibition of "spasmodic Radicalzeal," is not only mean and con temptible,. but it is Antirely untrue. Any body who chooses to examine the re cord of this officer since his elevation to the bench will Eind that bis recent Baran is et- n=•mr;r77m77win7.r'.wl-ml Mrs. Stowe found so much profitable noto riety in blackening the character of Lord ,Byron that defamation of celebrated dead men has become quite common among persons who have Mrs. Stowe's unscrupulousness without any of ber ability. Ifr. - Dickens was no sooner dead than a multitude of individuals began to assail him, and some even ventured to usurp the Divine prerogative and settle the question of his everlasting future. Coming years will probably develop some more veriMons per son, who will demonstrate that Mr. Dickens snifitlied - ate - whole — of the-Tert-Comman-dments every day before breakfast; violated a fresh paragraph in the catechism every hour, and habitually _committed offences tenfold darker than those attributed to Byron- by Mrs. Stowe. In the meanwhile we are entertained by a wretched little attempt to bring Edgar A. Poe into disrepute as a self-confessed peagiarist, forger and swindler. The author of this plea_ sant undertaking is a Rettig _named Shaver, who resides in Burlington, New Jersey. Shaver's story is, that he found among a lot of mildewed pqpers in a barn a letter from" Poe, confessing that he did not write ^ The Raven." According to the letter this famous poem was submitted to him for critieism by a party named Fenwick, and - Poet while in a state of intoxication, sent it to a magazine over his own signature. He repented the crime afterwards, bnt as the poem gave him reputa tion, be had not moral courage to confess the truth. It is not necessary to discuss the evidences of Poe's authorship contained in the poem itself, for they are strong enough to give to the story such an appearance of utter absurdity that no body will believe it unless the letter attributed to the poet is produced and proved to be au thentic. But we may say that the only matter for surprise in this business is, that the Burling- ton person did not claim that he was the real author of "ethe,Raven." The disposition of New .Jerseymen to do this kind of thing has been understood ever since Ball, of that State, went howling around the country with an absurd claim to " Rock me to Sleep." But Shaver pos sibly understands that it is easier to construct a story that will hang together loosely than it is to display fret-rate poetic capability; and so, conscious of his own deficiencies in the atter respects, he has constructed an individual named Fenwick, whom he kills be fore the poem is published. Our own belief is that there never was a poetic Fenwick, and that Shaver has attributed to Poe the commis sion of a crime while intoxicated,hardly greater than which has been committed against the poet himself by an obscure person in his sober senses. Edgar A. roe has already been suf ficiently maligned and misrepresented to tb public by- malicious biographers; and as his reputation has been made a good deal worse than it deserved to be, it seems cowardly and mean to attempt to fasten upon him an offence of which he could hardly have been guilty under any circumstances. When crazed with liquor,Poe was bad enough, but we cannot be lieve that he would have stolen another man's property, or have stooped to the vile action of manufacturing slanders against a man who was in his grave. some persons have more honor when they are drunk than others have when sober. The _Willing Post thinks that Mr. Greeley ought not to be held personally responsible for the falsehoods of the Tribune, because he does not give his personal supervision to the editorial department of his paper. As a general prin ciple, the impersonality of journalism cannot be too strongly insisted on. But there are ex ceptional newspapers, where the publisher or editor bas,voluntarily,so identified hiniself with his journal, that it is only fair and right to make Iditi personally responsible for the vices of Isis nevi - spaper, as he makes himself, personally glorious for all its virtues. Instances of this kind will occur to the mind of every. rea:der. bo - thin - this eity;,New York, and - other news paper centres. Mr. Greeley has made his v, bole reputation as a public man out of the TribUre, and so long as he' remains, even nominally, at its bead, it is simple justice - tip hold Lim personally accountable for its mis deeds:Al Mr. - Outlaw Reid writes the false hoods Which we have: repeatedly: exposed, it is still to Mr. Greeley's discredit that he permits his suborditiates to continue the vicious habit after its existence bas been clearly proved. . . . . ~•• t - ' 1 M 7 ED34- - FI§DA.Y Arrdli 'I JIM _NEW syIOAtIL 1140g1110“.

We observe notices of one bank at Pittsburgh, of a capital of $lOO,OOO, with the tight to increase to $1,000,000 ; one at Chester one at Harrisburg, one at Columbia, one al Pitenixville and one at Sharon. The list ot proposed new banks for. Philadelphia is as fol lows : Even for the worst of evils there is always a compensation. Nobody would have thought that any good could possibly have sprung from the neglect of the Board of Health to enforce proper sanitary measures in foul alleys awl yards throughout the city, but it appears than • at least one satisfactory result has been secured through this negligence. For several days past a colored person has been visiting certain !houses in the city, and endeavoring to obtain admission for purposes of theft, upon the plea that he was sent by the Board of Health to examine the premises. The story of this man has been received by everybody with discredit. So universal has become the conviction that the Board of Health never could, under any circumstances, he provoked to such a display of enterprise, that even the most ignorant hired girl illuininated her countenance with a scorn ful smile,-and-shut the door-in the face of preposterous imposter. The only matter for surprise is, that any negro in Philadelphia should have so little ingenuity as to attempt to procure admission to a house upon the strength of such an improbable story. We \ suspect he is a foreigner who has learned what he knows of Health Boards in more favored cities that. The country, at large, as Nyell,,as tho commu nity of New York, where the foal. deed wa-c done, has a right to protest against the iuetli dent police and the deficient detective factilty of the government of a huge city, in which 'such a crime can be committed without . prompt discovery of its authors and their prompt pun ishment. ..The locality was the very heart• of the city, close by the ;principal hotel; and the surroundings were all such .as to Make ope be 'note that there, if 'anywhere in 'New' York,life and property were safe. .But not only was a valuable life taken, after a strugcle that must have been.; desperate, but nearly a week hat. elapsed, and, so far as the public is informed, not a single thing has been discovered by the police that offers any clue that may lead to the discovery of the authorship of the murder. Justice is blind, indeed, in such a case, and it would seem as if law and police were useless in a city where, such deeds can be done with irupttnity. It may be said that life and pro perty are less secure in Kew York than it, any part of the country. The Rogers murder. the N at han murder, ; nd a dozen others, equally mysterious, prove this.

Upon his arrival iu this country Mr. Thonaatz Hughes will become the guest of Prof. James Russell Lowell, at Cambridge, Massachusetts. The friendship between these two eminent men is not of long standing, but it is probably earnest and sincere. Mr. Hughes introduced himself to Mr. Lowell in his preface to the American edition of "Tom Brown at Oxford.' In this he first declares his admiration for the genius of the poet, and for his faithful services in behalf of the country during the civil war and then he dedicates the book to him--aud closes with an earnest prayer for the success of the Union arms and the complete overthrow of the slave power. We believe the two friends have never met; and we shall be well content to have the Englishman begin his ac quaintance with Americans with such a repre sentative man as Prof. Lowell. It is to be hoped, however, that ho will not confine his observations or acquaintance to the Boston circle of literary men, of which Lowell is a leading.naember...4o - Can;become familiar with our people and their cnste - ms and . institutions better by traveling over the country alone and _coming into personal contact with its citizens.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 3.—At a meeting held last evening, President Champion, Secretary Joyce and Mr. Smith, of the Cincinnati Base Ball Club, " Red Stockings," tendered their resignations. The meeting was very full in expectation of the circumstance, and the tits inclination of the club to relieve the officers who had built up the club to its present emi nence was strongly and persistently manifested. The resignations were prompted by various complaints made against the officers, and the circulation of reports with regard to the management of financial matters of the club. Mr. Champion, at the request of the club, will continue 118 president for two weeks. His report submitted a detailed history of the club from its organization to the present time. Be reviewed the period when it stood $15,000 in debt, and showed a gradual clear ance of the embarrassments and the struggle against expenses amounting to over 512,000 per annum, anti the retirement of a debt of over $14,000, which existed at the commence ment of this season, and a balance in the easury to-day of $4,200. The unanimity of spirit in the meeting was unmistakable, and the members made formal declarations of penitence, so that the Club, in stead of running speedily into dissolution, gave evidence of being on a firm and perma neat footing.
