Mistakes in Press Dispatches.

\ newspaper man of long experience
got into a reminiscent mood the other
night and told of several funny mis-
takes which he had met with in press
dispatches. Said be: ''In the early
days of telegraphing, when the wires
aud operators were few, the task, I'M
heard of before. was undertaken of
sending one Of President Poke mes
sages through to Pittsburg. The OPP
orator was heartily tired Of the job
long before he got through, and after
ticking of the signature, James *.
Polk, he added in his joy, the words
God and liberty" in the STYLE of a
Mexican pronunciamento. The re-
eeiriog operator, tired. to death anil
half asleep, wrote the concluding ex-
clamation, and it appeared ia the pa
pers as part OF the message, to the
modification Of all concerned. Dur
ing one Of the great debates in Con-
gress on the slavery question the bred
Scott decision in the United States
Supreme Court was frequently referred
TO, but one night in the press report
il was written out, ''Dr. Ell Scott"
