TEE Devil DlscovERED.-In the last Sunday
MorSing News" wefnd the following excellent article
which we transfer TO our columns entire in order that
the great community of New York, who never see
the News, but always read the Herald, may be graft
fed with the intelligence that Satan has at last been
discovered and is now in fair way Of being for ever
demolished.

This beautiful article refers TO no less parsonage
than the devil himself to Satan of od--who is now
passing himself off upon this insulted community
under the name of James Gordon Bennett, and is
actually bewltchng all the old and young, male and
female beautiful and gay pious and graceful with his
wicked sorceres. We have had some slight know
ledge of this Bennett for the last twenty five years
and we deliberately pronounce him, frem personal
knowledge thief murderer, liar, coward, a
fool, forger, pick pocket, foot pad, politician
financer, philosopher wit, an editor and above
all, that he is the Great Evil Spirit of old-Abadden
of the Greeks, or Arimanes as called by the Per.
SANS If this fellow dare sue us for libel let him
come on for will prove him TO be Satan and guilty
Of every crime. Has he not stelen away the hearts
Of this GEOGRAPHICALLY the hearts of the lovely wo-
men2 Has he not murdered, in cold blood, all the
honest shinplaster and credit companies 2 Has he
not forged and lied and picked pockets two cents at
a time by means of his Herald, which is conceived
and written in such witchng strains that no man or
woman can Withstand il 2
That James Gordon Bennett must be the devil we
think can be easily proved by algebra He has b, en-
knocked down, burned out and put TO death score
of times, and yet he is much alive and kicking as

avenue with brandy bottle first emptied Of course)
tied up in a sling and strikes him to the earth !;
yet the next moment this creature is found calmly
showing up the financial doings of Wall street.
Twice he has been burnt out, and came very near
the third me-indctments, suits, ISLANDERS, lies, ev-
cry human and nhuman method has been tried, bu,
he still rises higher and higher in human estimation
and carries New Yerk, the Union, Europe captive,
bound in some mysterious chains.
This fellow called James Gordon Bennett mast be
the devil and nothing else. We must therefore, get
md Of him in some way. In former ages, Satan tried
every method to begue man. and beautiful, lovely,
adorable woman. He commenced business as
fashionable fruiterer and beguied lovely Eve with an
apple. Then he became priest, then a king then a
hero, then aphlosopher, then politician, bu, all was
of ne avail. As last resor, he has turned editor,
and is, no doubt the self mysterious spirit tina,
guides the Herald. Now, as the other newspaper ed
TORS Of New York must get rid Of this fellow at all
events, in order to get living for verify the Herald
is So popular and widely circulated that will soon
swallow up all other papers, we advise them to raise
subscription, buy Bennett the Devil out, and thus
rid New York of parsonage who, in less than .
wear, will turn il upside down, and bewitch ever,
male and female yciratiena within its mulutudnous
limits.
