In yesterday's Gszerrn we anuounosd
the fact that,the 'operator. of the West

thoroughly acquainted with the language
of dote and dashes requires a long pray
I Oral experience. Hence It is, that there
are very few amateurs In the profeerdon.
and _ hence it is that substitutes are ate*.
lately unobtainable by the employers.
The tattler fact places the strikers on a
plane of Independenee. • Their services
cannot well be diepened with—and .sre
think they are in position to dictate
terms. The operators of the West.
ern Union Company of this city
went off yesterday morning at tea
o'clock and resolutely abstained from
duties up till past two o'clock this morn
, log. Theresult was that the head offi
cials of the company had to reduce theta.
selves to operators and pat their ears to
the keyboard. It is absolutely impoesi.
ble for them to keep upend do the work
of the thirty missing strikers. Bo far
the beet of feeling hes prevailed between
the contending parties, and no violence
need be anticipated. As a general rule,
telegraph operators are intelligent gen.
demon,- and they could not be forced to .
maintain their rights at the expense of •
single principle of manhood and decency.
The great business of the Western Union
company wujmperfectly transacted yes ,
terday, and the preesure hm been - ea
heavy that wo are forced to believe an
early compromise will follow between
the employers and employed. Double
and treble rates wempald inferior paper

was refused by sound operatont who
were solicited to make their appearance

and of the operators to the public,
sea matter of nese :

The Chronicle of yesterday, in one of
he two vary contradictory articles on the
telegraphic strike, states on the author
ity 04 the Western Union officials that
that company did not reduce the salute*
of their employee at San Francisco, and
that the operatora bad no Just cause for
instituting such rash proceedinga. Tele.

the reputation or being at least in a de
gree Intalligent, and la it at al/ probable
that thlrty•eight hundred sane men
would take such a step without ashadow
of reason? No. There was a rednetlon
at Ban Franciano, , ,and It was but
the forerunner Of similar action
to be taken throughout the coun
try, should It be found that the
operators wore willing to submit. The
Western . Union Telegraph Company
having reduced their rates with the idea
of crashing out competition; not content
with a reasonable profit, thought to re.
duce Their expenses by making their
employes the victims of this telegraphle
warfare, and made San Francisco the in
!hal point of action, but the hour had ar
rived when prompt and united action on
the part of telegraphers wee to decide the
future weltare of the fraternity. The
organization which Inaugurated • thi s
resistance, extends from the Atlantic, to
the Pacific, and from the Great Lakes to
the gulf, and includes the brightest tele

and the movement was begun, and ex.,

TUESDAY, ..11110Xy . 4.—The first cube
taken op was that of John Hopkins vs.

the plaintiff in consequence of a refusal
on. the part of theefendant to comply
with part f of apurchase of a house
and lot. It appears that In February,
1869„ Mr. A. Leggate, auctioneer in Al.
legheny, as the
.agent of Mr. Hopkins,
the plaintiff, offered and sold at public
auction a bode and lot on -Tremont
street, Allegheny, which was knocked
down to Mr. Bieber at 120,000. In a
weak or ten day. after, Mr. Kleber noti
fied Mr. Hopkins that he would not take
the property, alleging that the bids
against him were not real, and further,
for the reason that the lot did Dot con
tain the quantity of ground set forth to
the advertised diacription of the prop.
arty.. It appears that the property was
through a ty.pographlcal error advertised
to contain .93 feet front and RIO feet
deep," when in reality It only contained
92feet front and ..1)8 feet deep. The prop.
arty was again put up at auction and
knocked down to Mr. Taggart for 115,-
000. This action was brought tp recover
the difference between the amount of
the sale to Mr. Kleber and the latter sale,
and other Incidental losses incurred.

Gen. Woot's Estate,
The evening before the veteran Genera
was stricken down with the illness that
closed his eventful career, he made a
most interesting statement to the editor of
The Troy Whig, which conveys a preen.
cal lesson, and shows how easy it Is to
become r ich after obtaining the first dol
lar, if one is prudent and economical.
"I never made but $20,000 In my life 1"
said the General, emphatically, "but I
always kept that at good Interest 1" On
our expressing surprise, he went on '
explain. It seems that at the close of the
war of 1812, the General found himself
terribly wounded, but about even with
the world in a pecuniary point of view.
Shortly afterward the Government sent
him to the far South and West on a spec
ial mission connected with military affairs,
and forfice years he traveled over moan
tains, and through the almost trackless
wilderness, and accomplished his difficult
mission,ll3 he always did , to the entire
satisfaction of the Government. He had
not drawn a dollar from the Treasury,
except for actual expense; and at the end
of Moot:lye years the Government owed
him 420,000, which was then paid. Here
wan the nucleus of his large fortune.
Gen Wool was then about 85 years of
au. He died at about the age of 88.
Now let • the reader take this $20,000,
which, at compound interest, will nearly'
double every 10 years, and in the GO
years intervening betwerm the time of its
receipt and the General's death, he will
find that it will amount to just about the
General's estate, to wit : $840,000.
Trichina, spinals Remedy.
A series of experiments hut enabled a
Chicago chemist to. offer a remedy for
