-From recent exhibit of the business Of
the Anelo-American Telegraph Company, it
appears that the receipts for cable dispatches
for iin nine months. ending 3lst Of January last,
we're about $500, 600, and that the expenses
were comparatively merely nominal, not much
exceeding SEQ, ,OsO-so that there was q net
profit Of nearly 80 per cent. Of the receipts.
The effect of the reduction OF charges which
vas made in August last from S2 to FL los ter
message of ten words, was decrease in the
daily | average Of receipts from $4,000 to $4,000.
The receipts. of the last three months have
averaged about $24oo day, at which rate the
net profits for the current year win exceed
475o. 600. Even at this moderate rate, the

ii FUNNY Development.
A Politicians Euiogy on Himself.

There is very fierce contest raging in
Washington over the office OF Mayor The
two candidates, Bowen and Emery, are both
Radicals, and there is great division and Bit
terness in the party. The Chronicle cham
pions Bowen, and the Republican and Star
side with Emery AZ is ever the case when
friends fall out, angry passions rise to fever
heat, and no mercy is shown to an adversary.
Unluckily some OF Bowen's present oppo-
nents were formerly his friends and intimates.
This confidential relation put them IN pos
session of his secrets, and one of these has
been recently revealed, to the general hilarity
OF the public and the great confusion OF
Bowen. 1t appears that when Bowen set up
for the mayoralty some years ago. he wrote
most extraYagant eulogy OF himself, got col
ored man to sign it, and had it issued as cir
cular. This document, in the handwriting Of
Bowen, fell into the hands Of the Republican,
which has recently published it, with the state
ment that the original, in the autograph Of
Bowen, is in its possession and subject to pub
lie inspection. The following passage may be
taken as a fair specimen Of what modest
man of the new era may say of himself
All this was done by Mr.. Bowen from princi-
ple, without the remotest expectation OF fee or
reward, and happen to know that he does not
want any Office or favor at your hands; that if
he were the only one to be consulted he would
retire to private life when he leaves the posi-
ton he now 30 ably and satisfactorily fills. But
Won and we, the Republicans OF this city, can
not permit him 10 do this. he Is, IN my opin-
ion, and in the judgment Of the best men in
