Specinl CanRrds.

The Commercial devotes a column to the
character of the news reports of the New
York press, from which we extract:
at is in the Washington correspondence
of these journals, where the country has a
right to expect the most sedulous care in
treating Of public measures of vital conse-
quence. that we find the most startling and
inexcusable recklessness of statement and
assertion. The Washington dispatch and
letter writers of the Herald, Tribune and
Times, appear to make up their political
news on the principle that he who can turn
out the largest crop of cdnGTds is the best
fellow. No matter whether the reports and
rumors they hear are or not well founded
they are sent off in hot haste by telegraph
to be taken back or confirmed by later in
formation in another issue. Nearly all them
Telegraph for quantityn-as it is called.
e. strive to outwrite the others in the amount
and variety of their news and speculations.
The result is seen in the mass of verbiage
and of trihes, mingled with profoundly
asinine reflections, which form so large a
share of this Washington correspondence"
Those who have noticed critically the
special Washington reports of the CONNER
ciGI and the rest of the Cincinnati papers,
must regard this as a queer exhibition of
newspaper virtue. To limit the special dis.
patches of the Commercial to things having
any foundation in evidence, would strike out
nearly every thing they have contained since
the political disturbances began, except the
repetition of the regular reports, and the
denial of their own eanards Of the previous
day.
This must necessarily be so. The Associ-
ated Press organization secures all the facts.
An outsider is left nothing but conjecture,
and this he goes on entirely. The more
canards he can send the greater the enter
prise. There is nothing at this time so de-
grading to the character OF journalism in the
public estimation as these reports. Who can
remember any thing true in them Witness
their positive reports this week that Secre-
tary Chase had decided to refuse all bids un-
der ninety-four for the Government loan,
and then their denial of them. This is q
specimen of the whole. The present war
furry exists up to this time on no better
foundation. War is not improbable that is
all there is of 1t. No intelligent reader now
puts the least confidence in these reports
nor do the reporters make any pretension tO
truth. Truth is slow; it is not enterprise
Naturally his extends 10 the whole character
of Journalism, and in respect to reliability in
news matters, the credit of American jour-
nalism was never so low in the public estim'
alton as now.

CvlindricnI JournaIIsm.

The New York Times, which, ever since
the Inauguration, has been charging the
Tribune with disunion for insisting on the
maintenance of the Constitution and the
enforcement of the laws, and whose Wash
ipeton and other Southern correspondents
have distinguished that Journal bg claiming
that the surrender Of the forts would be a
master stroke of policy, which would crush
out Secession, now veers around and assails
the Administration for its want of vigorous
policy.
This is not by any means an uncommonly
short circuit for the Times. Nor is it at all
strange that the Commercial, which has trav-
eled the same circular course, and which SO
recently as Thursday assailed the Gazette foI
its comments on the indecision of the Ad
miDisuation in regard to FortSumter, should
yesterday iudorse the Times, attack on the
Administration for precisely the same
thirg.
Journalism which goes round and round
like horse in mill, is, after all, the safest

DICK TURPN AND THE DUKE-A Most
AudaciOus RObbery.-Dick Turpin, the fa-
nous highwayman, actually robbed the
second Duke of Portland within his own
park of Balstrode. This daring feat he thus
accomplished, for a bet; The Duke was
driving into the domain in his carriage, ac-
companied by few attendants ON horseback.
Turpin hastily rode, having apparently a
roll of paper in his hand, and pointing to it,
be motioned to the borsemen to stand aside
for a moment.
Thinking he was a messenger of State,
they did so, when Turpin, putting his head
into the carriage, leveled the roll of paper at
the Dukes head, and his Grace saw it con-
tanned loaded pistol. "Your life or your
watch on the instant |" calmly but earnestly
demanded Turpin. The Duke pulled the lat
ter from his pocket and gave it to him. Tur-
pin drew back with sundry bows and obei-
sances, as if receiving the Dukes answer to
an important dispatch, and then galloped
off, and was on the high road, out of reach,
before the Duke could give the alarm to his
followers.
