Our Telegranhic Press Service.

The Associated Press, which still occa.
sionally does good thing, takes little
crow to itself for having transmitted TO its
newspapers the Gladstone speech, which
was made in ample time for complete re-
ports to the American morning journals.
We have generally gone on the theory
that "good wine needs no bush," but the
splendid press service which the readers of
the INTELLIGENCER have enjoyed, appre-
ciated and remarked, justifies the observa-
tion that the largely increased facilities
which its patrons now have for obtaining
home and foreign news, are owing to the
superiority of the United Press to the AS
s0ciated Press service for the afternoon
newspapers.
Ever since the INTELLIGENCER has had
q special telegraphic wire and press con.
nection run direct to its editorial rooms, it
has been furnished with from double to
quadruple the amount of news formerly
received from the "pony" Associated
Press service to the afternoon papers of
the interior.
Upon the modern principle of " selec-
tion" and the survival of the fittest -
from the great bulk of dispatches receiv-
ed continuously from 9 a. m. to 1 p. m.,
are chosen and condensed such a complete
review and summary of the news of the
day that our news page largely anticipates
the next days morning journals.

The Benefit OF the Doubt.

We prefer to give the collector of the
port in San Francisco the benefit of the
doubt raised by his denial of any discOur-
tesy practiced TO the incoming new Chi
nese ambassador. He says broadly and
distinctly that no indignity and no insult
nor want of politeness was shown to the
celestial envoy, and that all the comments
of the Eastern papers based on such as
sumptions are baseless.
The press has been very quick and eager
to assail the federal officials, and to find
political and meaner reasons for their al
legged derelictions, and it has not seemed fit
to any of the newspapers to stop and in
quire whether there was not room for mis-
understanding and mistake.
1t is true minister's credentials permit
him to land without the usual examination
of his baggage and property, but certainly
his credentials are proper subjects for ex.
animation and even this might occasion
delay which foreigners, unacquainted
with our language and customs and used
to the forms of arbitrary government
might not understand.
We do not think any American collector
Of customs at great port would risk hi!
official head by putting indignity on tha
of an entering plenipotentiary. We Civ,
Hager the benefit of the doubt.

LANCASTER, APRIL 10, 1856.
The Western Riot.

The authorities of the Louisville Il
Nashville railroad seem to be responsible
for the bloodshed at st. Louis, because of
their advertising for men of grit " to
guard their property, whom they caused
to be sworn in as deputy sheriffs,
and armed with Winchester rifles,
A natural result followed. Men from the
backwoods came to them to earn the five
dollars day offered, and they were men
who were not inclined to be slow to shoot
They were put into place where shooting
seemed to be their business, and the incli-
nation to it speedily came with the jeers
and the stones of the crowd. No serious
attack was made upon them, but they fired
under the provocation chiefly of words into
crowd, and killed a number Of innocent
people. And they ran away when they
saw the crowd coming back to them, and
knocked down the mayor of the town
who sought to arrest them; and fired
again in their retreat across the bridge
and killed another innocent man.
Their conduct was not wise nor justifable
and no one probably will try to Justify it
Nevertheless, it was conduct that might
have been looked for from men of theil
kind, undertaking to act as conservators
Of the peace, which it had doubt
less been the standing aim Of
their lives to break upon every opportunity
They had an excellent one offered them
and ephlqeed It with ardor. The mel
WHO employed them are the men to blame
more than they, who did but what theil
natures led them to do.
The Knights of Labor ,as an organization
had additional lustre shed upon them b,
the incident. 1t was their leader who hell
the infuriated crowd back from vengeanc
and urged them to do no deed in violation
Of the law. With that spirit among tn
leaders and obedience to it among the led
the knights Of labor are sure to win tn
object they seek by their organization.

A Strange Divorce Question.

In the English court of appeal has lust
been concluded remarkable trial in
which the question at issue was: Can a
dead man be divorced by law? Under the
English law decree nisi for divorce is
granted, and the divorce is not completed
until six months afterwards. In the case
In point the nisi decree was made, and the
husband died before the six months had
expired. The question was whether his
relict was widow or divorced wife, and
on the decision hung the distribution of a
considerable amount ofproperty. The court
decided that decree nisi was not disolu-
ton OF the marriage and that consequently
the man was not divorced at the time of
his death. 1t would therefore necessarily
follow that he could not be divorced after
death any more than he could be married
or condemned.
None will question the propriety of the
law here laid down, but how much better
would be if men and women did not
.usn rashiy into matrimony The society.
breaking divorce courts would be unnces.
sary ana marriage would be elevated in
dignity from its present fallen state. II
divorces were not 50 easily procured, bus.
bands and wives would bear with one
another's fa.ings, and not blazon to the
world the shameful story of their misdeeds
rendered necessary to secure legal separa.

years after the event weep over his death !;
and il the handwriting of Christopher Co
lumbus compelled mock wonder and in
credulity from one of the great American

Robbed in the beginning of his growing

AT big gathering of Spritualists in LOU
isville, Ky, the other day, a bombshell was
thrown into the camp bya skeptic offering TO
wager from $1,000 to S, 900 that the medium
could not answer the question whether a GER
tain missing man had been killed at given
place. This utterance nearly broke up the
convention. The man apparently was no
idle braggart, for he backed up his wager
with these stirring remarks: "Liie Is short
period of existence. When we die no one
ought to desire to call us back on earth. When
the mother looks for the last time upon her
dead child, and afterward feels that it is safe
in the arms of God, what does she want with
it back on earth again. II our fathers, moth
ers, brothers and sisters die, we don't want
to see them here again no, it only adds &c
the burden and sorrow. Spiritualism is q
fraud. We do not need any mediums, and
their performances are worthless" This
may not have been very agreeable to the
host of believers present, but the remarks
were loaded down with truth.

now TO DO IT.
What Can BE Effected by Systematic An,
Organized Effort

J. b. Harrison in Princeton Review.
The effort to save Niagara for which New
York state has appropriated million and a.
half dollars was new experiment, and ii
developed some facts OF law relating to
methods for the propagation Of idea. which
had not been so fully recognized before, and
which apply equally to many things in the
life and thought OF our time.
]. Ifan evil is to be removed, or an i'm
portant change wrought by the action of the
people, the first step is a clear and truthful
description of existing conditions, with a
plain, brief presentation of the remedy pro-
posed.
2 What Is written must be addressed to
the average understanding of people without
culture" who work with their hands.
What is plain TO them will be understood by
all others. All rhetorical indirection or dis
play is a fatal dlsad vantage Nobody now
takes fine writing seriously, not even the
authors of it.
3. The first impression upon popular at
tention must be followed up by frequ ent,
brief restatements each complete in il sci +,
and clear in its iteration OF the essential orig.
lnal appeal and must be continu ously va
ried and multiplied, without any long pause
till their cumulative effect produces a rever.
beration filling all the air of the time, an q
compelling general attention.
4. There will be required a few men Of
known character and influence, to employ
an agent who understands this evil, and be-
leves 10 the remedy proposed, who shall de
vote his whole time and energies TO the work
with a large measure of freedom OF judgment
and action as to methods. This agent should
be able to employ the pen and the press a
well as the power of personal appeal.
At present many efforts to bring about i'm
portant changes involve fatal waste of energy
The methods followed are often clumsy anc
Inefficient, because they are not based upor
facts W n
