The New YoRK HERALD.-We have not here
tofsre motto ed the singular war which Tor some time
past has been waged by the principal wing papers
In the city Of New York, against this journal III
known OF course, to our readers. that the general
politics OF the Herald are Of the Harrison and wing
comrlexion, but relieved by great independence on
all sects and cqucs, and the utmost iearlessness IN
the EXPRESSION truth. Indeed the acutepess with

with which IL publishes II on all matters relating to
trade, finance and party tactics are rapidly invest
ing IL in the public mind with character of autho
ritv ON those i'm portant and interesting subjects
The Courier and Enquirer-a journal which was
written into influence and consequence, some years
since by the editor of the Herald-plays the part
Of Peter the Hermit in the crusade against that pa
per The Courier and Enquirer, a paper reekiDg
in blood and falsehoOd, is shocked at the immsra
lities Of the Herald. We have nothing TO say IN
excuse Of the inmoralities OF any paper, but we
hold IL impossible that the standard Of morality OF
sny Journal can be lower than that Of the Courier
and Enquirer. There is nothing so hard Tor the I'M
principled TO hear as the truth III the money arti
eles 81 the Herald could be used Go pun worthless
stocks or 20 disguise or to- suppress the truth, IN

levs that IL might shed upon its readers all the inn

for nome nj the ind gnation Of what is called the
Wall street press. The real cause Of grief which
the Herald has created IS to be found in such mat
tiers as the following.
THESE true and judicious remarks are followed by
eopious extracts from money articles
The next extract is taken from the New Orleans
German American. 1t is curious to observe the
similarity Of impression produced all over the ccun-
try, upon independent papers, and right thinking

the Herald. Nearly ell the provincial papers, ex-
cent few, whose insolence and ignorance had con-
strained us to strike them from exchange list,
that have adverted to this matter, have spoken in
the same tone Of indignant rspr ibation of the ma
Iixnsnt and mercenary assaults Of the Wall street
pres. We might fll our columns with paragraphs
like the annexed, but the public understand the
thing very well already.

aid We are not 81 those specioss moralists whs
would falsely endesvor 90 promote virtue while the
xuise Of their seeming is but mantle beneath whict

and satanic pride. We therefore take occasion u
mention that the war against the Herald has fal

IL has produced change in that print, quite lauda

the New York editors, solely for the purpose Of
striking Mr.. Bennett aud his powerful press TO tn

the thunder purified the air. This Is the good srise'
from the "uloral crusade" yet how little merit d.
the authors of II deserve. We bid Mr. Bennett
GO on and act like moral man, in an spterprisinl
and Christian community. The Herald ~'H be sup
