WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. —e— Tue Mutations oy Wastincton Newspa- PERs.—A quiet change in the announcement of the publication of the States and Union, which met our eye for the first time yesterday, suggested to us food for reflection upon the mutability of newspaper affairs, and more especially of those of the Federal Metropolis. The name of J. P. Heiss, its publisber from its birth on the advent of the present Administration until this period, no longer appears there. In its stead that of J. 8. Holland, a worthy citizen of Washington, is in- serted, as publistier ‘for the proprietors.’ Who the latter are, the world is left to conjecture: and now very generally conjecture the Douglas Na- tional Committee, by the by. We have known the press of this city since our earliest knowledge of anything, and bave witnessed all the multitude of changes that have occurred in ft. Since 1844, when we first became connected with it as an employee of the late venerable Thomas Ritchie, (on the substitution of the Union for the Giode,) we have necessarily kept our attention fixed upon it with solicitude. In 1853, in the firm belief that an active, just, and energetic daily newspaper, devoted singly to the material interests of the people of the District of Columbia, might be built up here to become independent of political party Support, we became the proprietor of the Evening Star, then a very small sheet, not embracing daily a fourth of the ‘“‘new matter” now regularly published in it, and with but perhaps a tenth of its average daily circulation. For the first twelve months its publication was a heavy tax upon our credit; though from the moment we mounted its tripod up to this hour, its legitimate business has regularly increased. Energy, enterprise, cease- less devotion to its affairs, and business-like economy in its conduct, have, however, sutticed to work its fortunes past the possibility of injury from any contingency that might occur in the mutability of affairs political. The States was established on theadvent of the present National Administration, and on all bands we were warned that its destiny was to take the place of the Star as the Washington dally news- paper of most universal circulation and popularity. We knew better; because knowing our own in- tention to make the Star day by day more inde- pendent as well as more devoted to its legitimate news-sphere, on the one hand; and, on the other, that its rival must necessarily become a mere par- tizan political journal. Time has proved the cor- rectness of our judgment; for, while it has evi- dently required the absolute sinking of a capital of some $50,000 in all, to carry it (the States) on up to this time—when, judging from its adver- tising columnsand our knowledge of the fact that in these days no daily newspaper receives, for subscriptions, an aggregate of more than sufficient to pay for the white paper it consumes and its ink and press-room bills, (we care not where pub- lished, )—its annual cost cannot fail to be at least $10,000 more than its legitimate business receipts It was at first perhaps the most enthusiastic sap- Porter of the present National Administration; until, for causes doubtless satisfactory to its con- ductors, it became the Administration’s bitterest and most accusatory reviler. Since then, on the advent of Mr. Douglas into something of prom- inence asa presidential aspirant, it has become bis organ here; it being understood that he and bis friends furnish the means of meeting the de- ficiencies of its publication. First a penny paper, thea a two cent paper; next a penny paper again, and still again a two cent paper, with a change of name; first an Administration journal with jnten sity of devotion astonishing the uninitiated, then most violently opposed to the Administration; next patronizingly kind in its allusions to the powers that be, and, subsequently, until the pres- ent time, as earnestly devoted to the fortunes of the bitterest enemy of the Administration, as, at first, to those of the Administration itself, it at all times apparently kept tomahawk in hand and band upraised against everybody and anybody's interests in this community except those to whom it ““cottoned” for the time being. Te conse- quence is that though at times conducted with unquestioned ability, editorially, it never man- aged to obtain a share of the confidence of the business people of the District of Columbia or any reliable circulation in their midst. Hence the fact Now, a comparison of the career of onend all of them with that of the Star, illustra most forcibly two not uninteresting facts. Fijt, that the time hassurely gone by in which: party paper can become a permanently profitate prop- erty, even witha free run upon the treury of the United States; and, next, that eva in as small a city asthe Federal Metropolis, n inde- pendent, energetic, and cheap popularjournal, conducted strictly upon business principes, may be made permanently “prosperous andto pros- THE EVENING STAR.

There ‘was a fuller representation of stock than on any previous occasion, and, as usual, in all the busi- ness affairs of thiscompany, its deliberations were conducted with great unanimity of sentiment and good feeling between all parties. After reading the reports, and disposing of the current business of the meeting, the stockholders proceeded to the election of officers for the ensuing year. Zenos Barnum, of Baltimore, was reelected president; Jos. Sailer, of Philadelphia, secretary, and Thos P. Bladen of New York, treasurer. The old di- rectors—namely: Prof. S_ F. 8. Morse, Hon.
