The AssoeIaled Presa.

One Of the most important services rem
dered by the telegraph, is its daily commu-
nicatiOn of important facts through the dsi-
ly newspaper. Early in the history Of tel
egrsphiDg plan was set on foot by the
daily papers of the city of New York, for q
union for the reception of intelligence,
thereby lessening the cost and systematic
ing their efforts. They have now q kind
Of monopoly Of the resources for obtaining
early news, which, under the Organization
Of The New York Associated Press"
they sell to the papers Of the State and Of
the interior Of the country. The papers
constituting this association are the Tri
bune, the Times, the World, the Herald,
and the Sun. Their agent in New York
city is Mr.. D. r Craig. The President Of
the New York State Association is Jacob
G. Cuylei, Of Albany. Efforts are now be-
ing made to establish Western Assooiat-
ed Press Cempsny, to look more closely to
the interests Of Western papers. The pro-
ject was initiated ont q year ago, but
nothing definite has yet been accomplish.
ed. The importance OF the telegraph to
the commercial world, and, indeed, to all
mankind, can scarcely Re over estimated.
Especially servieeable has it been to the
Government duriug the present war. L.
deed, it may be almost said that the WarEis
carried on by telegraph. The General in.
Chief at Washington, by means Of the lit
tie instrument in his Office, can within a
few minutes gain knowledge Of events
trsnspiring thousands Of miles away. But
any mention Of the advantages Of such an
institution can scarcely do justice to them.
Its record is IN the daily neWspspes, with
its intelligence from every point; in the
private message from friend to friend
in the intelligence 70 the business man Of
the rise and fall in stocks; in the military
order sent thousands Of miles in moment.
Where iRaeed is not its record Who has
not had occasion to rejoice at its Workings2
1t is indeed one Of the most wonderful and
most bene6cent inventions Of the century
An Ohio paper tells of one Captain Stan
ton Sholes, who has been bald fifty years,
but who, at the age Of ninety-tWo, after q
severe headache, had a new crop Of hair, of
rapid growth, which is now thick, silken,
white and long-so long that it is oombed
back from the forehead and tied with q
ribbon at the neck.
Without doubt the recent grafton in
honor Of Shakespeare, delivered at the ter
centenary celebration in Halifax, by the
Hon. Mr.. Howe, statesman and official
Of high rank, as well ss q scholar, will be
found superior to any other production,
which the occasion will have drawn forth
in any part Of Great Brit Kin or America.
Ii is worthy of republication in extenso.
