Lion of newspapers outside of that monopoly We hope and expect that the good men of the
to supply themselves and their readers - with community will unite to retain Judge Paxson
the news of the world. for the very same reasons,
The latest attempt of the New York Asso
ciated Press Co discredit the news of the Ame
rican Press Association—if we except the daily
falsehoods of the New York Tribtoie—was the
recent blast of trumpets from the Pacific coast,
proclaiming a terrible story about the detection
and arrest of the Manager of the Atlantic and
Pacific Telegraph Company, while engaged in
stealing the despatches of the Associated Press
for the use of the American Piem Ass,cLition.
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

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-

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.

From present appearances, the Legislature
of Pennsylvania will be asked, at its next ses
sion, to incorporate a number of banks, under
-the-general-banking-laws the-State—Notice
of such intended applications have to be pub
lished at Harrisburg six months before the ses
sion begins. 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

the city, close by the ;principal hotel; and the
surroundings were all such .as to Make ope be

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

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.

Tuneuvv, August 2.:—The Wall street markets are In
the tut of midsummer stagnatiun. Had not the "war"
in Europe drilled into so peaceable an -affair. and
chestee the speculative plans based uhoulin expected
campaign of severe battles, there would, doubtless, have
been an exception to the initial serenity of monetary
cif cles at this season. But in the absence of the pre•
mist's, there is an- absence of the conclusion. Wall
street is at Long Branch and Saratoga.
The gold market opened strong in response to the tenor
of the speeches in the English Parliament last night and
the lower quotations fur our Five-twenties lit Loudon
this morning. Very little was dune, however; but the
pries , moi ed eerily on light dealings. This feeling carried'
the Quotation to 122 soon after the opeuing of the board;
but the advanced figure induced realizations, tin ler

which point the market again gave way to 121 4 a on

Suspension of the Central Bank. Brook.

peeltb Aceepted—How the Matter Now
Mande.
There - was considerable excitement catvied
in business circles of Brooklyn yesterday by
the startling announcement that the Central
Batik of that city bad failed. Inquiry elicited
the fact that the bank in question, which is
situated at No. 343 Fulton street, had sus
pended payment in compliance with an in
junction of the Supreme Court, granted upon
the motion of the counsel for the stockholders,
to restrain the officers of the Central Bank
from paying out any more money until the
financial condition of its affairs could be in
vestigated. For some time past this institu
tion has not borne the best reputation for its
management in well-posted banking circles.
The bank
Was Established in 1533
under a State charter. Its capital was V20),-
(10, in 4,000 'bares at fifty dollars each, p•tr
value. In 1857 it suspended payments, during
the panic, temporarily, bat after a few days
resumed business again,and has since contin
ued to meet its „liabilities. The directors have
been careless, it is said, in their supervision of
the affairs of the bank, and the consequence
was that a lack of confidence was engendered
in the minds of those who haol an opportunity
of knowing the real condition of the bank.
of the Central Rank, Mr. H. L. Pruyn, is an
extensive speculator in real estate, who has
within the past three or four years erected
several costly buildings on Washington street
and vicinity. He owns the largest proportion
of the capital stock of the institution. The
amount of loans and deposits for the quarter
ending July 1 was $192,000, and ..the profits

of New York, recently lent the death-blow to
the Central Institution by notifying all other
banks that it would no longer continue to
honor the checks of the latter bank. Thus the
Central was cut off from the banking institu
tions of the district, and hurried on to the
damaging ultimatum- of suspension. It is
claimed, notwithstanding, that the depositors'
accounts can be settled in full, the assets of the
bank being ample for that ptirpbse.
was made yesterday moral ng, shortly after the
opening of the Central Bank, when a depos
itor who had $12,(100 to his credit presented a
check far $203. The paying teller candidly in
formed the gentleman that there was only one
dollar remaining in the drawer, anti that he
bad but just paid. over $2,000 to another depos

French Alliance with Austria and Italy.
(Special to the New York Eroairtg Toiegrain. I •
PARIS, August 3.—lt is. positively asserted
here this morning that Austria and Italy have
entered into an alliance with Fiance.
The menacing attitude assumed by'England
towards France, as exhibited by the English
press, and the pressure in Parliament for
increased armament, seeming to suggest more
than a possibility of England's co-operation,
with Prussia, in which case the 'security of
Austria might be endangered, are said to have
hastened this alliance.
11 reosury Bonds
to the amount of five hundred million francs
have been issued in Paris.
Care of the Wounded.
In the hotirly antiOipation of a great battles

opposes it and the movement will likely be
_abandoned.--------...

It is tbe duty of= Austria to_form a neutral

which, in certain eventualitieg, would have to
