THE PROGRESS OF JOURNALISM.

To rHE EDITOR oF THE HERALD:-
If my contributions TO the history OF Journalism
have afforded any pleasure to you and your readers
is source of qualification to me- and shall gladly
profit by any corrections which emanate from the
HERALD. But l think you have inexperienced my
language and hence conveyed erroneous idea Of my
meaning to your readers My article says:-"when
steam introduced, in 1S14 less tnan J. 100 i'm
pressions an hour printed The ten cylinder
rotary prints 90 900 an hour and the perfccng press
80 0OO'L e., impressions. With this explanation my
statement and that OF your editorial article
are in substantial accord You saw OF the
Hoe ten cylinder press that 70 600 copies is its ex-
treme limit; said that 1t prints 20 600 impressions
which is equivalent to saying 10 900 copies In speak
ing OF the periectng press did not specify the Hoe
You say the double Bullock presses print from l6 600
to Is 600 copies an hour, which quite agrees with my
meaning in saying that the periectng press prints
30 600 impressions made the general statement that
the HERALD published sixty columns advertise
menis at 500 column. did not attempt to specify
tho greatest number OF Advertisements OF an sorts that
the HERALD had ever printed in a single day; but am
happy TO have the Information furnished TO me and
TO find In II ample verilcaton OF another statement
made by me, that the HERALD is the most successful
OF all our newspapers Very respectfully

THE CONCERT SALOON KEEPERS.

The concert saloon keepers of this city had meeting
yesterday afternoon in the Germania Assembly Rooms
Bowery to protest against the enforcement OF the act
of 1862 which they say directed against class Of
concert saloons in which waiter girls, and into
which soldiers and sailors during the times were
induced TO enter wherein the unsophsticated warriors
and others repeatedly robbed aud maltreated
John H. Casey called the meeting 10 order, and
stated that its object to consider ways and
either get the obnoxious law Of 1862 repealed
obtain leave from the Police Department to
continue their business as heretofore The
saloon Keepers pay theatrical license OF $500 per
annum, much any regular theatre in the city, and
in addition 10 this, $75 excise license AT Gilmore's s
late concerts in the Hppodrome, and at Theodore
Thomas Garden liquors were openly sold, and when
this fact brought under the notice OF the police
authorities they made the distinction that these
places conducted on large scale, thus leaving 1t
TO be inferred that the fact of mans possessing
capital constituted his right TO set the law at defiance
Major George w. Sauer, OF the Germania Assembly
Rooms, said he had been with committee 10 see
Mayor Wickham, but was unsuccessful IN obtaining
any modification of the recent police order
A committee OF seven appointed TO cooperate
with counsel and take such proceedings would bring
about repeal Of the obnoxious law, or procure
vocation Of the late police order.
