HIoMLY IMPORTANT SLlEvEGAMoN News FROM
CALIFORNIA AND WAsHINaToN.-In the socialist
organ yesterday, there were presented new speci-
mems of the principles of socialism, in reference to
new species of manufacture, that requires pro-
tection by high tariff. We alude to the magnilo-
quent telegraphlc dispatch, purportng to contain
three days later intelligence from California which
wac ieeued under the names of our highly respec-
table socialist contemporaries, Messrs. Greeley Il
McElrath; and also the intelligence of the appoint
ments for this city, recently made IN Washington.
They gave nearly three-quarters of column
of important Geographic news from California,
thereby imposing on the public what was no
news at all, but merely rehash from the CO.
lumns of the Herald and other journals of old
news which has been before the public for several
days. 1t was as complete SLevegamon tele-
graphic despatch as was ever perpetrated. But it
is fit commentary on those new principles of
journalism which that eminent newspaper and its
editors are determined to spread among the practi-
cal people of the United States, and principally
among the sensible portion of the wing party. The
only real news of a late date from the Pacific, pub
lshed yesterday, given in the Herald, and that
came from Acapulco, and only contained some ru-
mors relative to the burning of California bound
vessel in the Pacific.

fancy, that the fluctuations in prices became Q
subject Of almost universal remark The general in
quiry was How is Harlem Long Island Morris

the avenue the hoster who watered your horse would
inquire how Harlem was! Apple-women in the street
would eagerly ask if Morris Canal had The spi-
