' ORDER

" ' Dear Sir,—A. man called on us, and requested us to
send up to Colonel Webb 100 good regalias. Do you mean
it ? If so, please acquaint the bearer, and it shall be
promptly done—say so in writing. 100 good regalias cost
5 dols., but we have a good article for 3 dols. the 100.—
Your obedient servant,

" ' HENRIQUES, 51, William-street

" ' Monday afternoon.'

ANSWER.
" Send the best

74- . J. G. BENNETT

" By some mistake the wine was not sent—but on Mon-
day afternoon the cigars reached Webb's apartments. On
the young man entering he found Webb attended by four
friends, a black servant waiting behind. He presented the
box of cigars, and stated the message. What was Webb's
reply ? Anything but what we expected. Colonel Webb
looked at him like an old-fashioned thunder-cloud, saying,
` I have nothing to say to you, but tell Henriquez that if he
had brought them himself, and dared to offer them, I would
have kicked him out.' The messenger, astonished at such
treatment on a mission of kindness, retreated precipitately.
while the four persons present laughed outright. He returned
to 51, William-street, cigars, reply, and all in one general
box of astonishment. A further correspondence, verbal and
written, has passed between Colonel Webb and Mr. Hen-
riques, in relation to this unnecessary insult, but what is its
tenour we do not yet know. Henriquez has spunk, and will
hardly brook it.
" Now, really this affair seems strange, and positively in-
dicates that Colonel Webb wants advice and prayers of no
ordinary kind. Here we have been getting up petitions,
aiding him in his difficulties, and doing everything we could
with propriety and delicacy to increase his comfort in prison,
till the pardon is procured—till-the veto on the sentence is
certain. Acting on such motives, and in such a way, the
colonel certainly behaved very unhandsomely to Henriques,
who had nothing further to do in the matter than what we
have related. Instead of wine and cigars, our old friend
seems to require, in a greater degree, the pious prayers of
some clergyman. - _

" We shall, therefore, endeavour to procure the Rev. Mr.
Miller, or the prophet, Joe Smith, or some other eminent
and pious person to call upon him (the Rev. Mr. Authors has
hardly power enough) to put him, by prayers and other de-
votions, into a right frame of mind, while we follow out thp
petition till he gets released. The wine and cigars, we be-
lieve, we shall send to the poor prize-fighters at White Plains,
who are in pretty much the same predicament with the
gallant colonel, and who will soon be in as much need of a
pardon. Will they refuse them, and insult the messenger?
We hope not.
" In the meantime we call upon every humane person in
New York, within the reach of our words, who have not
signed the petition in favour of poor God-forsaken Webb, to
come to the Herald office, corner of Nassau and Fulton-street,
and put down their names forthwith. Come in—come in—
come in ! We have now well on to a thousand, and we mean
to make it five thousand, if we can, before Friday nest, the
last day of grace. On Saturday the colonel receives his
sentence. Although he behaves badly, we shall not.

BISHOPRIC OF CASHEL.—We believe we may say that
the humour which we mentioned on Tuesday, as to
Daly being elevated to the see of Cashel is perfectly well
founded. It is also mentioned in the
of the London Times that the Charles M. Fleury is t

thus vacated by the elevation of Dr. Daly to the see of
Cashel has been, it is said, conferred by Earl De Grey on
the Hon. and Rev. Dr, Maude, Dean of Clogher, and
brother, I believe, of Viscount Hawarden. The Rev. Mr.
Balfour, a connexion of the Enniskillen family, succeeds to
the Deanery of Clogher. Dr. Singer, F.T.C.D., was, I un-
derstand, offered, and refused to accept the Deanery of St.
Patrick's ; and report further adds, that the dignity was
tendered for the acceptance of Archdeacon Pakenham, who
also declined the elevation. Dean Maude is stated to be
as strenuous an opponent of the national system of educa-
tion as the new Bishop of Cashel, and more he certainly need
