ASTOUNDING PsLIsE DIscLosuREs.-On Thursday

ASTOUNDING PsLIsE DIscLosuREs.-On Thursday
evening, the magistrates were privately engaged in
very extraordinary investigation, in which some per-
sons who figure largely in Wall street implicated
and the disclosures in which that have already been
elected are altogether astounding 1t appears that
one Of the Kenlscky banks had deposited the plates
from which its fifty dollar notes struck with one
of the Wall street banks, and that some irregular f.
nancers obtained an nkling of this fact and also
cured possession Of the plates, from which they pro-
ceeded TO take impressions TO the amount OF about
four hundred hsusand dollars! The police got
wind of the affair, and apprehended the parties with
the notes in their possession, all signed, and ready for
emission. The examination is progressing and what
has already ranspred occasioned great deal of in
terest and comment in Wall street yesterday. Per
sons of high reputa ton are implicated
Furthermore, the Police is busy in sitting the cir
camstances connected with the Poisoned Coffee"
affair." about which there much talk few
weeksago. Additional particulars had been ascer,
tanned, and clue discovered which will most likely
rendera full exposure Of persons and events atogeih

MeaALs OF THE NEwsrAPERs.-Old Mr.. Richie Of
the Richmond Enquirer has the following remark on
the close OF the Pennsylvania Convention:
We hope il has not met in vain. The just and
beautiful Report orr the means Of improving the tone
Of the public press, would alone DO honor To any As
socatoR. Ii will be embodied in the proceedings OF
the Convention"
The deprayity and indecency Of the press exist
,ng greater than they Were in any age coun
Try Only read the Washington Globe, the Courier
d Enquirer the Albany Argus, the Evening Star, the
National Gazette, the Journal of Commerce, and
ssch papers belonging TO either party and aering
their opinions. AT this momen, all these papers
charging their opponents with fraHd, csrruption i'm,
morality inc ecency, and every vie epithe they can
lay their tongues upon. The Courier on Van Geren,
and the Globe on Webster only regulated by the
same principles The Richmond Enquirer IS little
decent, but not much In fact, there IS hardly
popular business general newspaper IN the coun-
try,that possesses the pretensions rcspec
liability in moral character, but the Herald. We ex-
anime, sf, and aHalyze every subject with dehcacy
grace, w.t. and the spirit of deep philosophy. We
throw into leading articles ON politics, religion
finance, or fashion, spirit of independence truth
grace, and especially moral Tone peculiar only to
the man of thought and the grea, reformer of his
age.
In fact the only real moral paper of the age is the
Herald. BY its abandonment Of the tricks Of pot-
clans, fanatics, hypocries and swndlers, we reach
every heart point blank. What is the reason that
the Herald is Intensely popular among all educated,
cultivated, intelligent, and accomplished women
Because It is conducted the only real moral prn-
ciples which are beauty and grace before the Al
mghty-those moral principles which spring from a
pure heart honest Intentions and fervent desire do
good. All other papers conducted on the morale
of politicians, 6nanciers, brokers, swindlers, hypo-
critics and cheats. Hence their perpetual attempts to
Juggle the community in every department Of life
which juggles in money matters, in cotton, in flour,
in real estate, in literature we have exposed for two
years past.
The foundation of all moral character in the press,
Is to be found in the personal character of It's con-
dactors. On this score, as compared with mine,
what n set Of swinders and scoundrels are those
generally now managing the press and Juggling the
public But every dog has his day-and The triumph
Of the Herald and sound morals is certain as seed
time, harvest the rising the setting Of the sun.
