Tbe suppressed dissatisfaction of western P®^*
Ushers, with the operations ot the system of te
graphing news to them, seems to be breaking o
in spite of their good inclinations towards the tern'*
graphic lines, and their strong disposition to 9 P r *
important intelligence'before their readers in _
shortest possible lime from the point ot w ,c
starts. Complaints hare reached us within a
days, almosi simultaneously, from Sl Louis
ville, and Louisville, wHh which we are mo
half inclined to chime in.
There is no such thing as denying orc e
up the delects of the telegraphic reports ...
to the wear. They are gl.ru*. anJ

proceedings, and the general mlelligen P* j
In* to the eastern cues. The remedyfor tto. ertl,
however, is a thing not ao earn y own local

employers, lhe P Pitlsbunfh and

Clearies in the new. transmitted, ‘herefore they
are the common and easy .cape-goau oftheJoeai
agent., and there i. no apparent remedy, under
She system n» it now esiita. triors fcay abound,
—as they do-and the western papers innocently
spread them before their readers, and receive—a.
Ihev do again— 'more coil’s than coppers for their
increased labor and expenditures. in conducting
their busmens, and if the Weal ageota be found fault

came with the rest from the eastern reporters, and
mere tbe matter reste.
The Sl. Louis Republican traces tbe whole oinii
cnlty in this city, and with more spite than good
manners, charges it to the parsimony of the Uo»
cinati publishers. The Republican gels over the
matter, so far a* iH own troubles are concerned,
with entirely 100 much ease. It iscertaiuly under
no obligations to take the report* that come to
Lhi* city, if it doe* not like them, and in endeavor*
in* to apologize or account in this way for urn
errors aad defect* of iU telegraphic news, it
deceives it* readers, and altogether unnecessarily
makes n martyr of itself It can employ its own
special agent* in Philadelphia, New \ork, xc., to
transmit news and roiumerciol report* for it* col
umns, and would probably do so, to use the lan'
gunge which .1 applies to the Cincinnati publish
ers, did not ‘the rwi outweigh all other consider*
at *The IxDinsville Journal suggest* tbe bolding ol
a convention oJ western eJitors, for the purpose ol
arranging line* of telegraph..’ correspondence, so -
lecting their own reoorter* East a* well a* «genl*
West, and apportioning the expense* to each ol
the several cities-»ay Pittsburgh. Cincinnati , leom
uville and Sl Louis. U this way. 1 th.nk, if
they pursoe the nght coarse, they can make tbeae
western cilie*. with New Orleans, what the east'
ern cities already are great centre* of telegraphic
correspondence—aad tfn addition render the tele
graph of 'great interest to their readers, and incal
culable pecuniary advantage to themselves.
We are, ourselves, ready for any prow move
ment that will result in more beneficially serving
our subacribers. aod reimbursing ourselves in the
expenditures to which we hive been subjected by
the establishment ol the telegraphic lines in the
West. So far, the enterprise has been one ol con
unual cm ugv> without producing any perceptible
xnarmf . We should be pleased to know whet the
Journal’s plan is. and if it. details promise any
thin* like the advantages to our reader* and our*
•elves that the editors of that paper seem to
think they do. we shall go heartily into the move,

We have observed the operation ol the telegra*
phic system closely,'.m.-e tbe eal.bli.htnet.l ■ ol a

Ihu. far, li cannot be denied, il has been a heav)
bill of expense to the letter, and to Ibe former ha
continually held tbe word ol promts, to tbe eai
