Mr. George ?. Putnam, who fell dead in his
store in New York last Friday, Was associated
with the first publication Of some Of the best
books in American literature. Among the stand
ard works which have borne his imprint are the
writings OF Fenimore Cooper, Edgar A. Poe,
Washington Irving, and Bayard Taylor. He was
the first American too, Who began the importa-
tion Of English books On q ecale commensurate
with the demands of the American reading pub
Lie, The periodical which he established under
the namo Of P,ttndna's Magazine, with the as
siBtance Of George William Curtis, Tas for
years the leading feature Of American periodical
literature, and did excellent service in enlisting
the public in the enjoyments Of current itera-
ture. Mr- Putnam WAS an ideal of the better
class Of publisherB-a counsellor and friend
Of the literary men, as well as their printer.
He Was himself possessed of high qualif-
cations as a writer and critic. While in
England, many years ago, he published book
entitled "American Facts," which did much in
the way Of removing false Impressions and diff
fusing correct information regarding this coun-
try. He waB the compiler Of work entitled
'The Worlds Progress; or, Dictionary Of
Dates, F" which, shortly before his death, he had
revised and brought down to the present day.
His recollections Of literary men were among
the pleasantest, as his associations with them
we're always intimate and cordial In fact, Mr.
Putnam WAS too genial and open-hearted for his
oNq SUCCESS in q worldly sense, but his purity OF
life, and the respect which he commanded in
literary circles, may have been dearer to him
than the greater profits that have been earned
by other publishers. He leaves daughter who
has inherited talent for literature, and who has
even extended her studies into the medical
science, in which she has earned distinctions
""" accorded to her sex,

message was sent from Washington to Philadel-
phia, and repeated back, all within the space OF
two minutes, the process of perforation
for fifteen words requiring only fifteen
seconds. The projectors Of this new system Of
telegraphing are perfectly sanguine of SUCCESS
1t is matter in which they will have the best
wishes Of the public. for it will reduce the e1-
pense and rates Of telegraphing. Already, the
Company has fixed tariff between New York
and Washington, by which they send messages of
twenty words for the came price that is charged
Tor ten words under the old system. The Vest
ern Union Telegraph Company, however, make
Aghtof the invention, and contend that, although
transmission by the new process is more rapid
than BY the Morse instrument, the work Of per-
1oratlon and transmission together is slower, 80
that On the whole it possesses no advantages
over the Morse process,
, 1872-12-25

The Automatic Telegraph Company have now
q line in working order between New York, Phila-
delphia, and Washington. The automatic pro-
cess is go much more rapid that one machine and
one operator can DO the work OF two machi.:os
and two operators, with two distinct lines, under
the Morse process. The message is first written
out by machine, in an incredibly ehort
time, in characters, which consist of perfora-
t1ona in 3 strip of paper. It requires but one
movement Of the hand, touching q certain key,
to make each letter, while, under the old process
OF dots and dashes, several movements of the
operators wrist are often required for the for
mation OF one letter. After the mes
sage is transcribed in perforations, the
slip Of paper containing it is placed
on roller worked by wheel; and, as it is
turned, , pen passes over it, making the circle
complete at each penoration. 4 similar pen re-
ceives the message at the other end, which is
then passed through printing machine, and o
copy is obtained by much more rapid process
than It could be written out by the operator taxi
ing it from the wires. As an indication Of the
rapidity Of tho new process Of teleeraphinR.

The sum Of s550,oo0 has been paid for 81
ahares Of the New York Tribune Association.
This would make the entire value of the prop
erty 81 100000, which, the Tribune says, is tsby
far the highest price ever paid for newspaper
On this continent" This il not exactly correct.
Shares in TEE CHICAGO TRIBUNE we're sold,
before the fire, at the price relatively, that
is on the basis Of 81, 600 for the whole.
After the fire, when 100000 Of the tangible
property ofthe establishment had been DESTROYED
without insurance, sales were made on the basis
Of 100000 The New York Herald could not,
probably bo bought for $4,000, 1000, if it we're for
sale at all. The New York Erening Post is be-
lieved to be worth over million dollars, and the
Journal Of Commerce even more than the Post,
and the Philadelphia Ledger more than either.
The st. Louis Democrat sold recently on the
basis Of about $500, ,000,-a ridiculous1y low
price, as the sellers, Messrs. Mckee l. Housor,
have since admitted to Themselves

THE NEW STATE HOUSE,

We have receiyod 2 copy of the report made
to the Governor by Messrs, jacob Bum,
John T. Stuart, and James b. Beyeridge, the
State House Commissioners, on the 18th inst,
accompanied by report submitted to them By
Messrs. Cochrane and Piquenard, the architects
These reports indicate that much better work
has been accomplished during the last year
than at any time since the beginning Of tho new
State House. It is gratifying to note that the
construction, thus far, has kept within the
limits of the estimate; and it is promised ex-
plicitly that the entire work shall not exceed
the amount fixed for il by the new Constitution.
There have been three acts in regard to the:
new State House, The first Was passed On
, 1872-12-25

Barnum's Museum and Menagefie has been
DESTROYED by Ere. This is the third time the
Great American Snowman has been burned ont,
and IN each csse tie loss has been total. The
distressing feature Of these disasters has been
the burning Of the animals, which become un-
manageable before the flames. In the collection
destroyed yesterday there we're lions, tigers,
Sirafres, leopards, elephants, hippopotamus,
.canels, and many less valuable animals all Of
which we're burned to death, except two ele-
phants and camel.
