The Washington Union.

The Union of the 18th instant announces the re-
tirement of A. J. Donelson. Esqr. from the editorial
chair and the transfer of his interest his partner
Gen. Armstrong. The reason assigned for this
movement is that there are obstacles to the harmo
ny of the Democratic party growing, in degree
opt of alleged differences of opinion respecting the
political views which have been maintained by the
Washington Union, while under Mr.. Donelsons edi
torial management. He returns to his private pur
suits in Tennessee. 1t is rumored that Hon. Ed
mund Burke of New Hampshire who was formerly
connected with the Union when owned by Mr.. Richie
is to renew his connection with that paper.

far as the issues which used be considered

Several gentlemen ayowed their determination, in
SO many words, not to vote for Scott but had
nerve enough to place resolution to that effect up
on the record. We rather guess Gen. Scott would
get the vote of nine out of ten in his party
in this District. The want of the other tenth of
course would defeat him. MIR. Kerr, the nominee
of the Wing State Convention and Hon. George E.

ANOTHER TELEGRAPH REDUcrIos-The Northern
lines of telegraph are judiciously reducing their
charges for the transmission of messages, and we
doubt not that increased business will amply 1emu-
nerate them for making the reduction. We see it
stated that the Bain.s Merchants Line between
Boston and New York, having been encouraged by
the great increase of business since their recent re-
duction to fifteen cents have concluded to make still
another reduction in their tariff which will in fu-
ture be ten cents for the first Ten words, and one
cent for each additional word all stations on their
