Once, during last summer, a leading newspaper editor got disgusted, and determined that the gold gamblers should not monopolize all the early news. So he went into the cipher business too, but being rather raw at it, his first effort was not quite so good as some subsequent ones. He forwarded the cipher to his leading Washington correspondent.--Pretty soon the operators in his city, who knew him solely as a devoted newspaper man, were as furnished at receiving for him this dispatch from Washington: "Have sold for you fifteen thousand bushels of corn at 35. The market looks squally." His paper announced, the next morning, that the main body of Lee's army had crossed the Maryland line, and was moving into Pennsylvania; and his chief rival got very mad and complained to the War Department that he was bribing the telegraph company; but it was whispered about among his friends that so and so was neglecting his business and going into very rash speculations, and -- he changed h

But a servant girl comes in with a hurried scrawl on a torn sheet of delicately-scented French paper, in a lady's hand: "George H. Montgomery, Fifth Avenue Hotel New York. Do come home at once — Mary cannot live twenty-four hours longer. Laura Montgomery." How can be stop, that? But George H. Montgomery is a myth, and Mary's illness means Hooker's defeat, and the hotel clerk has been instructed to send any such dispatch by the speediest means to somebody's bank down town; and the firm makes the money, and the Government censors keeps blinking like an owl over the dispatches, and rigidly stopping "everything relating to the war;" and Mr. Stanton felicitate himself over having made those newspaper pests send their accounts by mall rather than by telegraph!
