WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3, 1872.

The Associated Press Monopoly. The Leavenworth Times is out in a strong article in favor of the Postal Teleegraph system as recommended by Postmaster General Creswell and President Grant. It says the monopoly of the "Associated Press" is "more valuable than the strongest railroad combination in the Union," and closes its article with these words:

To start a paper in Leavenworth to-day, you would be compelled to buy out one of the papers already published here, or pay into the association a sum equal to the value of one of them, before you could get a line or a word of the telegraphic reports which are published by us day after day. Of course, this adds to the value of the papers here we are "in the ring," and guided by self-interest alone, we should join the general clamor against the proposed reform. But we regard the interest of the public as beyond, and paramount to the interests of any individual or class and while the inauguration of the system of postal telegraph, as recommended by the Postmaster General and indorsed by President Grant, would, for the present, injure us individually, it would inure to the great benefit of the public at large therefore, we give it unqualified support. It is right, and for that reason we lavor it.

What is true of Leavenworth, was true of this city before the establishment of the Evening GAZETTE, and the subsequent construction of the lines of the Pacific & Atlantic Telegraph Company, from Indianapolis to St. Louis, and the locating of an office here. Now, the GAZETTE bids this soulless and unmanly Associated Press monopoly defiance for with our present facilities for the furnishing of the people of this city with news, we are meeting with unparalleled success. Since receiving the dispatohes, our circulation has been rapidly on the increase, and even increased before. Were it not for the dispatches of the Associated Press, the morning papers could not have existed a year, as did the GAZETTE.

Even for many months preceding the establishment here of the new telegraph office and the securing of thedispatches, the GAZETTE increased in circulation week by week. When we secured the telegraphic news and started out a regular canvasser, subscriptions came in at the rate of twenty-five per day. Last evening the gentleman who canvasses for the daily, brought in fifty new names of subscribers to the Daily Evening GAZETTE, the result of two days' work. Such success as this encourages and convinces us that we have not labored in vain to overcome the local influence of this contemptible embodyment of selfishness, the Associated Press monopoly.

The proprietors of the two morning papers in their selfish interests, did all in their power to suppress a paper which in its short existence of a year and a half has done more for the advancement of the best interests of Terre Haute than both of them. This they did that they might have no opposition in newspaper enterprise and in order that they could impose cheap papers on their readers for the simple reason that they could not got better ones. The people of this community are getting their eyes opened to these facts now, as is indicated by our rapidly increasing circulation-. Advertisers are becoming aware of these facttf, and as a consequence the GAZETTE is being liberally patronized in that line which will enable us to improve the interest of our columns daily, so that in the not distant future we shall be able to enlarge our paper and increase the reading matter. To this end we shall devote the energies of our lives, day by day, only expecting the liberal patronage of all who have at heart the best interests of the fair, prosperous and beautiful city of Terre Haute, which interests the GAZETTE will continue to advocate "without fear or favor."

State Agricultural Meeting. From the business transacted at the meeting of the State Agricultural Society at the city of Indianapolis yesterday, as appears by the /Sentinel's lengthy report, we are led to the conclusion that theuglicultural interests of this State are no lacking of the careful attention and due consideration which they merit and their great importance to the general and i:i dividual prosperity of our noble State demands. From a careful perusal of the various reports made, Ave see that the agricultural advancement of the State of Indiaua was never in a more flourishing and prosperous condition than at the beginning of the new year—1872. In regard to the time of holding the State Fair in future, the following was embodied in the able aud lengthy report of Secretary Poole:

I would agaiu suggest that the time for holding our fairs should be so arranged as not to conflict with Ohio, Illinois or the St. Louis fair. If an arrangement could be made so that Ohio would hold her fair first, Indiana second, Illinois third and St. Louis fourth, I ain satisfied it would be much to the interest of all. St. Louis has her time permanently fixed for the first Monday in October, annually, and I would recommend that for our own interest wo should not fix our timo so as to conflict with her. AVe have done so for the last tw» years, and I know that hundreds of exhibitors and visitors liavo gone to St. Louis from western Indiana and eastern Illinois that, would have been with us if our time had been different.

These suggestions of the Secretary will certainly meet with the hearty approval of nil who are interested in the State Fairs in not onj^ the various States named, but by all exhibitors from whatever St«y$, .J[t would b^VKell for every

other State to enter into this arraiigfe* ment, for it would be to the interest of all. There are mauy exhibitors of valuable inventions who would attend all the State Fairs of the Union were they held at different dates. Many exhibitors of stock would attend many more fairs than they do did the various State Agricultural Boards have a mutual understanding as to the dates of holding their fairs, and not have two or more State Fairs during the same week.

We make special mention of this portion of the Secretary's report because we believe it to be of the highest importance, to the best interest of the society and least considered of any other.

The meeting is in progress yet to-day Col. Thomas Dowling represents thisdis trict and is at his post as usual.

The Yandalia and I. & St. L. Railroads The St. Louis Republican, of Decern her 31st, comes to us with a supplement all filled with a review of the business interests of that great city. From this extensive report we clip the following relation to the two railroads which pass through this city, the head office of one of which is located here—the Vandalia The

JRepublican

says:

ST. LOUIS, VANDALIA FE TERRE HAUTE RAILROAD.—This road was completed 1870, but has largely increased its bus ness in 1871. It forms now the direct route to Philadelphia, from which point new steamship lines are projecting Europe, and through which large import ing business will be done.

INDIANAPOLIS & ST. LOUIS.—This road has added no new track within the past year, but as shown by its frieght records has aided largely in the carrying trade between this city and the East

The following table shows the freight business of the road derived from brought to St. Louis during the year 1871

The Vandalia is one of the most popular passenger routes in the land while the Indianapolis & St. Louis road is a good passenger route, it does not do the business in that line that the Vandalia does. In freights, however, the I. & St. L. road does an immense business, and far in excess of the Van dalia. Both are first-class in all respects

Republic Insurance Company. The Chicago Republican of Saturday, in giving a report of the doings and financial conditions of the various home insurance companies of that city, says of the Republic

The Republic had four and a half mil lions of stock subscribed, on which 20 per cent, has been paid. They reinsured the Reaper City, ofRockford. They pro pose to pay 100 cents, and are abundantly able.

This is the company that insulted the unfortunate people of Chicago by offer ing aper cent, on losses, when they are abundantly able to pay one hundred cents on the dollar, according to the Republican. Let all interested, discharge this liability as they do their own private debts—if they pay them.

Boss Tweed and tbe Hoosac Tunnel. It is said that Boss Tweed has invested about a million dollars in a contract for the boring of the Hoosac tunnel. Won der if he made tiiat investment with view of giving the officials a "little game which it is hide and seek," when at temp Ling to effect his arrest, by crawling into the tunnel! We are of the opinion that if Tweed is conscious of the enormity and magnitude of his crimes and thu feeling of the great mass of the Amer ican people, that he could crawl throug a much smaller place than the Hoosac tunnel to secrete himself from the con temptuous gaze of a defrauded and in dignant constituency in particular and public in general.

THE report of the Special Agents, Foster and Webster, who were sent to the Indian country to investigate tain alleged pension frauds, shows that the charges of corruption were fully sus tained.

It appears that the laws both of the United States and of the Cherokee Na tion were violated that the proceedings resulting in the payment of the fraudu lent pensions were characterized by wholesale perjury that a counterfeit seal was used and that of two hundred and seventy-three claims which the Special Agents had examined only forty-three were admitted as valid.

A large proportion of the names re presenting these claims were put on the pay in an irregular and illegal manner

A Serious Danger iu the South. The efforts of the carpet-bag politicians to excite feelings of hatred and distrust on the part of the negroes against the whites for political effect, find their legitimate result in such oiitrageei as have been perpetrated by the blacks in Chicot Arkansas, and iu the Sea Islands of South Carolina.

It is for the mutual interest of the wiiite and black population of the South that good feeliug should be maintained between the races. The planters need the labor of the freedmen the freedmen look to their late masters for employment aud assistance. If left to themselves, the two classes would live in harmony and quiet, for their interests are identical, and the more friendly and cordial the relations existing between them the better for all.

But there is a class of unprincipled white adventurere who since the war have proved the greatest curse of the Southern States, who, for the purpose of influencing negro votes and gaining power for themselves, h»ve industriously labored to inflame the minds of the ignorant freedmen with bitter prejudices against their late masters, teaching them that they were iu danger of being reduced to slavery agvtin unless they followed the advice of their self-constituted leaders and who in every way have endeavored to nurture a spirit of hatred between the races. The ignorant blacksfi? flattered by the attentions paid them by these designing knaves, who are careful on all occasions to assert that it is in consequence of their efforts aud those of their frien is that slavery has been abolished, readily fall into the snare, and unite with their hypocritical teachers in hostility against th&se who might be their b£st friends. And now in the Southarn States where the carpet-baggers predominate, the least rumor of an, injury done by a white man one of the negro race js sufficient ly

iheite demonstrations of mob violence from a class who once aroused* are heedless of consequences in their wild and unreasoning rage.

When some case of wholesale murder and rapine sufficiently horrible to excite the attention of the whole world shall have occurred, the fearful effects of these

ernicious teachings will be appreciated every one.—N. Y. Sun.

Four EviJs.—Whoever habitually uses any alcoholic preparations as an "appetizer" will be likely to suffer from four evils, viz.: an overplus or food in the stomach, impaired ability to digest it, the pangs of dyspepsia, and a doctor's bill. DR. WALKER'S VEGETABLE VINEGAR BITTERS, the great Teetotal Restorative of the age, without over stimulating the palate of irritating the stomach, imparts a healthful appetite, promotes digestion, regulates tbe liver and bowels, purifies the blood, aud thus, instead of entailing four evils, confers four inestimable benefits. 6dw4w

1872. THE WORLD. 1812.

JN the year 1872 General Grant's successor is to be chosen the Forty-third Congress to be elected.

The people's votes, white and black, North and South, will thus decide the future destiny of the Republic, select its rulers, prescribe their course.

How to influence the people's votes? By the newspaper—for it includes every other agency. It makes known events and facts —among all influences the chief. It assembles the vaster outside audiences which cannot gather t'o the State House, the pulpit, or the stump. It is the constant Interpreter of men's affairs, and of errors or truth is the daily seedsower.

Next November is our political harvest-time. As we sow we shall reap. THE WORLD'S seed-sowing will be fruitful to the extent that its circulation is widely pushed by those who approve its aim.

THE WOULD will aim to represent and combine the labors anu votes of I.—All those who find best insurance of the people's prosperity, peace and progress in a government administered on the principles and in the pure practice of Jefferson and Jackson, and Who descry the fount and origin of the present corruptions, extravagance, .misgovernment, subversion of public liberties, and insecurity of private rights in our rulers' lawless usurpation of interdicted and undelegated powers— usurpation that to-day marches deliberately on to the subjugation of popular rule and the possession of dictatorial power—for by acts of Congress General Grant may even now destroy the lreedom of State elections, invade the States at his pleasure, and declare martial law of his own free will.

IV.—All those who would reduce the nun* ber of commodities taxed by our tariff from thousands to a few dozens, and so empty our custom-houses of half their officials, rid the statute books of half their odious snares for honesty or bribes to fraud and unfetter scores of our native industries.

V.—All those who would lower the rates also of-our tariff taxes to the point of most easily yielding the largest revenue—who would abandon the protectionist system of reducing the revenue whilst increasing the extortionate profits of a few at the expense of all other industries.

A new year opens upon us fresh duties beckon us forward new opportunities are

slanders of our enemies, and have forced some of them to admit the monstrous false

larger constituency of customers than has ever been secured by any other retail Dry

Goods establishment in Western Indiana. Our sales now equal if in fact they do not

largely exceed the combined sales of any two of our competitors, and yet the year up
