IMPOSITION BY TELEGRAPH.-D. H. Craig,
agent of the Associated Press in New York
City, is said to have amassed fortune OF
upward of 100000 in his ten or twelve years
residence in the metropolis. He has acquired
this by sending advertisements-as items OF
news-over the lines, thus having them inserted
in papers free of cost-Erchange Paper.
Mr.. Craig is gentleman (?)-very much Of
a gentleman(?) Any man who can make one
hundred thousand dollars out of the quick
witted, wise, intelligent, smart newspaper men
of this country, should and will pass as a
gentleman. Surely, both fortune and fame
belong to D. H. Craig, Esq.
Mr.. Craig, a few months ago, made ten
thousand dollars-"quickaS lightning tele-
graphing over the country Tiffany, Young &
Co.'S. great Atlantic Cable speculation adver-
tisements-as items of news. Now, Mr.. Craig
is not the only man at fault. Newspaper men
are reprehensible for allowing telegraph matter
to be taken directly from. the telegraphic to
that of the printers rooms. The eye of the
editor, or his assistants, should scrutinize well
every article, telegraphic and otherwise, before
it passes into the typos hand. This would often.
times save not only composition, but INFO

SEVERAL of our cotemporaries are so
unmannerly as to treat with ill-concealed
derision the recent extraordinary efforts of
our estimable cotemporary, the Cincin-
matt Commercial. to achieve notoriety.
The late interesting exhibition of the in
testine arrangements of that concern the
manifesto in which was celebrated the
miraculous speed and exactness with
which the midnight edition" was pre-
pared to be-in many cases-just mo-
ment too late for the trains that were sup
posed to be laden with its treasures, has
awakened not little lefthanded admira-
tion in several quarters. Our neighbor
is--we are constrained to admit it-palpa-
bly, afflicted with an itch to do some
thing desperate in the way of newspaper
enterprise; and, on the occasion of sew
eral trials, has, in the opinion of many,
made prominent exhibition of that which
it was thought he would be naturally most
desirous to conceal.
We interpose a plea in behalf of our
contemporary. He is trying an important
experiment in the art of newspaper ma
king-a new and original plan never be-
fore discovered; but which, if successful,
will produce revolutions in the trade Of
the most interesting character. His re.
cipe for creating public journal is evi.
IDENTIFY copied from that of the Irishman
for founding cannon: "Take a hole and
pour brass around it. This readily ac.
counts for all the accompanying phe-
nomena. The superhuman dullness and
uneasy fatuity of the concern, instead of
appearing accidental, are seen to be real
elements Of its character. They belong
to it--as necessary to its complement-in
the same sense that a bobtail is a true
appendix to bull-terrier, and ears of por-
tentous longitude are symmetry, when
employed to add dignity to the counte-
nance of donkey.
1t is reported that the Commercial is
to be enlarged-that in fact, the enlarge
ment is to make its appearance to-day.
We shall, doubtless, have some fur
ther information in respect to the estimate
which the managers of that concern put
upon themselves in this mornings issue
perhaps another "time table If there
could be one devised to show the progress
of an idea--if such thing is admissi-
ble-from its first faint dawnings in the
counting-room, until it is overlayed and
smothered in the editorial columns, it
would be both amusing and instructive
In the mean time we condole with our
fellow-citizens in their misfortune of hav-
ing some additional square of inches of
dullness daily added to our periodical
literature-a thing of which there is
greatly too much already.

A TALE OF TAMs.-We see from some of our
exchanges there is new mode upon the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad of ticketing passen-
gers. The company at this time are carrying
over the road a large number of hogs, for the
safe delivery of which the conductors are held
responsible. The conductor at the depot where
the hogs are received on board the cars cuts off
each hogs tail, and carefully keeps them until
he arrives at the place of destination, where
the agent comes out, and, as each hog makes
his exit, halloos out "hog," in answer to which
the conductor says "tail," and, of course if the
number of hogs and tails correspond, it is all
right. 1t is certainly a convenient PLAN

| The ALLEaHANY BANK FoRGERY.--The par
ticulars of this sharp swindling affair we
abridge from the Evening Chronicle. 1t ap-
pears that, some few days since, man who
gave his name as W. G. Williams, made his
appearance in the village Of New Philadelphia,
Ohio, and represented himself as capitalist,
in search of o location in which to0denveni-
emily embark in mercantile pursuit. a He soon
made the acquaintance of a merchant named
Hull, doing business in the village, and, after
some negotiating, it was agreed that Hull
should take him into partnership, the agree
ment to 20 into effect at once. Mr.. Williams
informed Mr.. Hull that he held two drafts on
the Union Bank of New York for $4,000 each,
and that he must have them cashed before
their agreement could be perfected. Mr.. H..
replied that as he was about visiting Pittsburg
to purchase goods, he could accompany him
and have them cashed in that city.
Accordingly they started for Pittsburg, which
they reached on Friday, and put up at the st.
Charles Hotel. During the day, Mr.. Hull in
troduced Williams as his partner to several
merchants, and among others to party doing
business on Wood street, whose name it is un-
necessary hore to make public. Here he stated
that he held draft on the Union Bank of New
York. which he would like to have cashed, and
then carelessly inquired Of the gentleman if he
knew where he could be accommodated. The
gentleman introduced him to the Allegheny
Bank, and here he had his draft converted into
cash in the presence of the merchant who gave
him the introduction and Mr.. Hull. Subse-
quently the parties visited Hanna, Hart & Co.'s,
where he exchanged the par funds received at
the Bank for currency, and here his inancier-
ing stopped.
Some two hours later, Mr.. Hull took his
partner to Coleman, Hailman & Co.. new ware
house, on Water street, and while engaged in
examining the different departments of this ex-
tensive establishment, Williams suddenly re-
collected that he had an appointment with
friend at the Girard House, at four o'clock, and
as it was nearly that hour, he would be COM
PEELED to absent himself for a few moments.
The explanation satisfied Mr.. Hull, and Will
liams then started to meet his friend. Instead
of going to the Girard House, however, the
fellow called at the st. Charles, and directed
the clerk to inform Mr.. H., when he returned,
that he would not be back till ten o'clock, and
that he desired him to leave the door of his.
apartment unlocked, that he might enter with
out annoying him. He tnen left the hotel, and
was not seen afterward.

A Horrlble and Bloody Rcrenge.

Near North Bloomfield, Nevada county,
On the 10th inst, bloody AID fearful deed
was committed, which one Of our Mountain
correspondents, writing from North Bloom
field, informs us Of as follows:
At place three miles from this, called Re-
lief Hill, at II o'clock to day a man by the
name of Ollnets killed another, his brother
in law, by the name of Pole in the bOr-room
of boarding house kept by Mrs. Todd. The
following information was obtained from a
man acquainted with all the parties nvol-
we'd, and the causes which led to the killing
The man Pole and his wife about year
ago whenliving at, or near Sweetland, parted,
in consequence of disagreement, the wife
charging him with having wantonly, and
cruelty administered to her person upon sew
eral occasions, corporal castigations. Some
time after the separation, Pole went to Re
! lief Hill to work at mining, and some two
months ago, Ollncts went also TO the same
place, and for tee same purpose, and took his
sister, the wife Of Pole, to cook and keep
house for him. Pole, bis wife being brought
in the same vicinity, took occasion to speak
unmanly and unkindly of her, traducing her
character as a virtuous woman; this very
much exasperated Ollnets, her brother, and
last night he having come to North Bloom
field to attend a Ball that was to have taken
place, but did not in consequence of non.
attendance of ladies' was further informed of
the i'll report circulated by Pole against his
sister; and to day upon his return to Relief
Hill, went to the boarding house where Pole
was, who was about to go to dinner when
Ollnets entered the bar-room. Ollnets sat for
few moments, then said to Pole, "Yo ou have
been lying about my sister again." Pole
said, that is a lie." Ollnets stepping to the
door, said, eff you come out here l can whip
you or any other man that will back you,
taking off his cravat, and asked Ollnets if
he intended to fight him fair fight Ollnets
answered by swapping a six shooter, of which
the cap only exploded, whereupon Pole
rushed upon Ollnets, and in the scuffle the
pistol was discharged, and the ball passed
into the floor: the pistol was dropped, and
0llnets drew knife, and getting Pole down
gave him four stabs in the breast, the knife
passing through to the back at each thrust
then another! ,!cutting four ribs in two, and
the heart also then another which severed
the breast bone in two distinct pieces; then
another upon the neck, and one upon the face
extending from the right eyebrow to the
mouth by this time Pole was dead and
Ollnets said that he would give himself up to
the people of that place, or go to Nevada and
deliver himself, and was permitted to go,
which he did, accompanied by another man,
and has not been heard of since
