i el THE EVENING STAR. | The Largest Circulation in the District, | . Editor CROSBY S. NOYES....... WaSHINGTON CITY THURSDAY........-. OCTOBER 31, 1867. S7-READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. BEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHEB MATTER VALEDICTORY. ‘The undersigned, after twenty-nine years yneessant labor in connection with the press, requires mental and bodily rest, not to be ob- tained while engaged in active business pur- | suits. He has therefore seld the EvgNING | Star to a company of younger and more vig- | crous men, competent in all respects to con- | cuct it ably and to the entire satisfaction of its | patrons. Among them are Mesers. C. S. Noyes and ©. B. Baker, both -well-known | for many years to all who haye trans. | acted business with the STAR office—Mr Noyes as the undersigned’s principal | assistant in the editorial conduct of the | paper, and Mr. Baker as the manager of its | financial department. Their associates in the | | | | | | enterprise are gentlemen of experience, en- ergy and ability, and enjoy deserved weight in this community. ‘The STAB was never more prosperous than St this time, and the undersigned has such confidence in the ability of Messra. Noyes and Baker, sided by their business associates, to manage its affairs, as that he anticipates for it & career of greatly extended utility and influ- | erce. This confidence, the result of a business | Sssociation of many years with those gentle- | men, he trusts will be accorded to them by all | the STAR'S friends and patrons. With unfeigned gratitude to the public of the | Federal Metropolis for (he favor they haveex- tended to the STak, and with sincere thanks to all who have been in its employment for tha contribution which each and all of them have | made towards ereating its success, the under- signed now takes jeaye of themas a journalist. October 3ist, W. D. Wattacs. ——-« TO THE PUBLIC. Promises and professions in a newspaper prospectus amount to little, and are apt to re- ceive slight consideration from the public. ‘We propose todeal in them but sparingly, preferring to let the paper hereafter stow for itself. Briefly we may indivate onr intentions in the conduct of the STAR as follows:—We mean that it shall be independent, outspoken, hon- est, expressing itself freely upon all questions of public interest, but always, we trast, with | dairness and good temper. The time has come when Washington City can, by rightof her pop- uigtion and business, demand a paper devoted essentially to her interests. Hererofore it bi been deemed impossible to sustain a journal here divorced from politics, and relying for itssup- port upon the people and business of Wash. ington; but the Washington of to-day is some- thing more than a mere politicsi centre, with All its interests merged in national politics. Our population is increasing upon a ratio equalling that of the most prosparons cities of | the country. We count the number of new buildings now erected annually here by , thousands. Gur mammoth skeleton of a city, so long the subject of derision, is be- we Tepidly clothed with flesh and blood. The unsightly gaps between the aggregated Villages composing the city five or ten yerrs go are being filled up with marvellous ra- Pidity. Our people are coming of age, and are | breaking away from the Governmental apron- i strings, not content with @ state of enfeeblinz dependence upon the drippings oF official pap Yor thesupport of an entire community. New business enterprises are springing up in every Girection in our midst: and the magnificent resources of the District borders are at length | about to be developed on ascale that promises to | add immensely and permanently to the growth and prosperity of the city. There is a mission | here for & paper devoted largely to the enconr- | agement of the hopeful new business vareer | entered upon by the District cittes. The Star, by its resources, its commanding circulation, and the liberal advertising support it receives, | is favorably situated to undertake that mis- | _ Sion, and we shall enter upon the experiment ‘Without a shadow of misgiving. The STAR now visits almos: every honse- | hold in the District, and the universality of its circulstion causes it te present great attrac. tions for advertisers. We shall not rest satis- fied until the large circulation of the Srar is made yet larger; increasing steadily here- after with the growth of the city. As & news-paper We mean tha: the STaR snsll occapy the front rank. Oar colurans willsbow the completeness of our arrange- ments to secure the freshest and the most au. thentic news; neither labor nor expense will be spared to thisend. As a local paper the STAR has been unrivalled, and we sal take due care that its universal reputation as «the best local paper in the District” is fully main- tained. While the contents of the Star will be thoroughly news-y, varied, fresh sprightly and readable, we mean, at the same time, they shall be unexceptionavle in char. | acter. H With the remarkable career of success of the Star in the charge of the experienced and energetic journalist whose place we take, the public is familiar. By reason of the bril- luancy of his pen, his remarkable activity of mind and body, his kindness of heart, and the geniality of his temper, the name of | W. D. Wallach is a “household word,” iden. | tifled with the name of the StaR wherever the paper is known. The management ot | the paper does not, however, fall into new | and untried bands. Some of us may claim | to bave given the best years of our livesito | the work of building up the Star to its Present height of prosperity. We hardly deed say that in our now yet more responsible Position we shall labor, at least, as assida- e@usly as heretofore to make the STar atractive. We know what the Star has | Gone in tke past, and our ideal of its fature career is a high one. How nearly we snall Succeed in realizing that ideal remains to de seen. | i} | i Norgs, Baker & Co October sist, 1867 ‘ oy. ANDREW, OF Massa- CHUSETT#.—Jobn A.

TICKETS.—The statement ina morn tog psper that al) the parquette and dress- Circle seats, as weil as the orchestra chairs were sold for Friday and Saturday nights, is entirely erroneous, The sales were upprece- | cently great to be sure—two tbousand dollars having been taken in in two hoars. The sales, however, were principally of orchestra chairs. Parqnette, snd dress-circle seats, the most de- sirable fm some respects are only commencin; to be disposed of. o ‘ | curtajl the expenses of the War Department. | that the national banking act does not give | and salt to supply friendly Indians in Nebras. THE FORCE OF THE QUARTERMASTER GEN. ERAL'S OrviCe.—There were four or five dis- missals in the Quartermaster General's office to-day on account of the scarcity of work On the Ist cf December there will be some forty or fifty dismissed, as the work of the office is rapidly decreasing; and by the receat order cf Gen Grant it is directed that as the work is brought up the force be reduced, to At will be remembered that forty were dis- missed on the 30th of September last. —— Eee THE TwENTY Pex Cxnt.—The Department clerks are again taking initiatory steps towards securing from Congress an increase of twenty percent. on their present salaries. The in- crease provided by the 39h Congress expired with the end of the last fiscal year, and there is Do good reason why it should not be revived. Itis believed that the coming session of on- gress will recognize the justice and necessity of permanently increasing the clerks salaries or granting’ them the additional twenty per cent. for the present fiscal year. LIABILITY OF NATIONAL BANKS FoR VAL- UABLES ON Dgrosit.—Comptroller Hurlburd has written a letter expressinz the opinion TELEGRAMS TO THE STAR. IMPORTANT FROM EUROPE. at Monte the Freach. (Special Dispatch to The Star.] FLORENCE, Oct. 29—A. M.—The Italian press is engsged in an anxious discussion of the national crisis and the policy of the Govern- ment. The more moderate liberal journals express approbation of the action of the Gabi. net towards the Garibaidians, and im the observance of the September Convention. The democratic papers are firm in paste opposition to the course of the Executive, and loud in their condemnation of the idea of foreign intervention in Rome. There is much popular disaffection, produced mainly by the vague- ness of the ’s proclamation on the subject of the Roman question, and from the fact that tbe Royal manifesto contains no allusion or makes ‘no reference to the matter of French intervention, or how it shouid be met. The army contingent, ss classed im the year i541, of the Royal troops, has been called out. Paris, Oct. 283—Night.—The French fleet the national banks the right to receive pack- ages of valuable securities, plate, or other | things, for safe-keeping. under the power gravted to receive deposits—that to take them 18 & (ranegrestion of the law, and that banks Teceiving such deposits are liable to be pro- ceeded against.

La Presse of this afternoon says that General Garibaldi’s army is being reinforced by thousands of men who have deserted from the Papal army of Ltaly. Garibaldi carried Monte Rotondoafier a severe fight and marched direct for Rome and it 1s believed here that he is now at the very gates of the city. La Patiie says that the Premier and members ot new Italian Cabinent accepted office under two positive efficial conditions with Victor Emanuel. The conditions are, first, that the King shall publicly disavow ali con- nivance with or support of the Garib-\dian bands who bave crossed and are crot the frontier into the Papal dominion; and. ly, that by # military movement on the frontier the Italian army Will co-operate with the French expeditionary force. ‘The Paris Epoque publishes news dated in Florence, annouacing that the Italian troops of the army crossed the frontier and en- tered the Papal territory to-day. The second French fleet whish had jast ar- rived trom the north. and was detained here by adverse weather, has followed in the wake or the first, and left port for the Roman wa- ters.

The Gene. ral displayed great personal bravery during the engagement. and his soldiers succeded in capturing a'l the Pontifical force, but tie italian Government authorities al once re- leased them. La Liberte says that the Emperor Napoleon refused to permit the Italian army to co-oper- ate with the French expeditionary force in the operations which may be undertaken in Ro- man territory. In reply to the proposal of King Victor Emanuel, Napoleon said that the Italian co-operation was unnecessary, as he at present intended to Mmit the sphere of the French action to Civita Vecchia.

But it is not suppored to bea “bad failure.” The heavy payments of coin in November by the Treasu- ry—over $26,000,000; the small amount of gold that will be required for payment of custom- house duties; and the heavy shipments of grain, cotton, and other produce to Earope mast cause a still further decline in gold. which, it is expected by some, will be down to 135 before he end of November.
