RHODE ISLAND CONSTITUTION result of the
election in Rhode Island for the Constitution is very
curious there 6, 535 votes cast for it, and 80
against it; making total of only $50 votes in a
State that numbers at least Is, 900 voters. Two par
ties did not turn out; the old Charter party, who
wanted no change, and the Dorrites who wanted a
more liberal Constitution. AS tits, the government
will go and organize under this constitution,
and the possession of the administration under it for
the first year will be matter of great importance.
Singularly enough at the late election there was
vote of 3793to admit blacks to vote, and only 1920
against it.

Correspondence Of tie Herald
New ORLEANS. Nov. 10. 1912.

New ORLEANS, Nov. 10, 1872
JAMES GORDON BENNETT, ESQ,
NAPOLEON THE Press, New YoRB:-
DEAR SRI notice in The Weekly Herald OF 4th
instant, that you have concluded not to sell the
Herald establishment, their being person now-a-
days able to raise the round wheels required, and
that you intend to carry on and manage, as hereto
fore, the greatest commercial and political paper in
the world, the Herald"
1t is useless for me to say that you will by this
conclusion make more friends In the South than
could all the presses beside in New York, if put to-
gether and led by Dickens and Co. The Herald has
always been the leading Northern paper here, and
the slightest probability of being deprived of this in
valuable sheet, would put in very disagree cable
position we would no longer seek for information
through the medium OF newspapers, should the Her
aid, Benefits Herald" be taken from among US.
Therefore for the good of society, religion and
morals, and the advancement of science and htera-
ture, we pray you to remain where you are. En-
closed youhave a spot of the Manhattan Bank of
your city, and in return please send the Weekly
Herald until is :. used up" How this little "WI-
liam" ever strayed from home so far, is unknown
one thing is sure, its mother don't know its
out"
Our city now presents inducements for business
never before known. Specie is daily arriving in
large gu nttles from the north and Europe; and so
soon as our western rivers become navigable, we
may expect brisk and good business. Cotton is
selling brskly, though at very low prices Thu crop
OF the United States this year will, at the lowest
estimate, be 2OOO,0 600 OF bales
Very respectfully,
closing the cash, that we receive by half dozens
and dozens every day. 1t shows the confidence and
regard entertained for the energy and honesty of the
Herald throughout the country. Thanks to our
Observation-Disclosures to all for these sentiments.

DIFFERENCE IN THE VALUATION OF PROPERTY
Nine hundred acres of land on plantation in MIS-
sissppi, with the improvements, were sold in New
Orleans the other day at bona tde sale for S3l.-
They were sold in 1886 for $27 900. The person
who bought it knew the value of the property very
well. This is another instance of the remarkable
depreciation of property all over the country.

The LATIMER SLAVE CAsE.-The conduct of the
Boston people in relation this matter has created
a terrible excitement in Virginia, particularly in
Norfolk, where Mr.. Gray resides The people there
threaten severe reprisals upon ships that come from
Boston, and call on their Legislature for some
measures that may prevent any such acts in future.
They charge on the Boston people, direct theft and
say that the Southern States have now no guarantee
for the security ofther property, which was origi-
nally granted to them before they would consent to
become co-partner in the Federal Union. We
should not be surprised to see something serio JUS
grow out of this affair yet.

PoLIrlcs IN CANADA.-There has been a conser
vatlve victory in Canada. Attorney General Bald
win for Parliament has been defeated in the Second
Riding in York, by Mr.. Duggan. The ,ories irA
consequence of this, anticipate the dismissal OF Mr.
Baldwin from the Executive Council. The Sc
cond Riding comprises the three great townships of
Toronto, Chinguacousy and Albion and the
smaller ones of CaledOn and the Gore of Toronto.
1t appears by the vote that the right of suffrage is
greatly restricted.

This is coo-as cool as Iceland-as cool as the
north pole-as cool as the old sentiment from the

musket at Andre, he, Paving, had on a red coat;
and so had, beieve,l one or both of the others.
They had somehow got possession of some plumber
from the British, among which were some British
sergeants' red jackets. One of these Pawling put
on, and this so completely deceived Andre, as TO
throw him quite off his guard and tell them that he
was British officer.
Before we conclude, we must state another cir.
cumstance that has come to our knowledge relative
to this remarkable affair. And as our informant is
a gentleman of undoubed veracity, and says that
he had the statement from Col. Tallmadge's own
lips, we think II is entitled to notice Col. Tall
madge, 1t will be remembered, was the officer TO
whom Major Andre was given up after his capture,
and who had him in custody for some two or three
days Some few years before he died, gentle
man at a dinner party observed to Col. Tallmadge
that II was wonder there had not been a monu-
ment erected TO the memory of Pawling, Williams,
and Van Vaart. The Colonel replied, "Sir, they de-
served lash more than monument" On being
asked the reason, he said, that he had it from An
dre's own lips that these three men held consul
taton for several minutes in Andres hearing, as to
whether they should give him up to the British or
to the American lines and how they could make
the most by the operation They at first thought
ana sdlu lndt Anure nau MADE tnem Such large
offers, that they thought he either could not, or
would not, fulfil his promise when he reached the
British. Had he driven a very hard bargain with
them, there is no doubt they would have given him
up to the British Then again they thought if he was
worth very much to the British, that he must be
worth great deal more to the Americans, and that
therefore the American party would give them
more for him than the British. They also in de-
batting the matter before Andre, observed that it
would also be much the safest plan to give him up
to the Americans, they belonged to that party,
and had fear of punishment if they behaved
treacherously Therefore, they delivered him to the
American lines.
This statement of Col. Tallmadge's, puts quite
new face on the whole matter, and places the con-
duct of these men in very different light. The
publication of Smiths trial, therefore, in which
Pawling and Williams both testified to the facts
connected with Andres capture is highly interest
ing in this connection. Pawling, we believe, died
poor, or rather embarrassed, after all He had
farm given him by Congress of 800 acres, situated
in Weschester, and which once belonged to DR.
Hungerford, we believe. Towards the latter part
of his life, Pawling married wife some 80 years
younger than himself, and left several children by
her He finally exchanged away or got rid of his
farm in some way, and was anything but comforta-
BILE at the close of his days.
