Bennett -Bennett returns from Paris a. war
With eyerybo and part ;ulary with every
friend of the Admi nis,ration His pripoipaj
Srief is his disappointment with regard to tn.
French mission, which is now filed by the &C
complished John Y. Mason. What figure be
would out at that gay aud polished Lourt
the American munster. While in England
and France he was avoided as a common lena,
BY all Americans In vain did he plead fo,
admission into respectable American sccie,v
In Europe by promising 10 call CT the blood
hounds of his Own polluted press. All msn
Stunned him and dsspised him. He forced
conversation wi Mr.. Buchanan, which ueye,
took place, representing him as assailing the
Administration, and when the falsehood was
ol1stered on his forehead, he sank under it.
Hence, al honorable men recoil from his
presence lest they too may become victims
OF bis want OF honesty and truth His hatred
Of John W. Forney, is a proof of his revenge
ful nature
We are often asked the reason of this ha
tred. Our Junior having been associated with
Mr. forney in the management of the Phila,
osipnls Psnnsyfr0nsa1, can speak from the
book on this subject Some fourteen years
ago, while a citizen of Lsncast, r, Penns,lya-
MA, Mr. tornsy delivered lecture 10 Phila-
dsipbia on the Duties of the American
Press, 10 i'm Lense audiences In Tho course
OF which be described the terrible rebule OF
Bennett BY sniel O'Connell. He showed tina,
man vlo could assail the dead and voun
the character OF The living, who betray ed ali
e2rddsnces, who rejscted tho truth, and who
never did just OF manly thing, deserved the
awful cordeunation which Bennett received
f.om Cor neil From that hour Col Forne,
has been pursued by psnnett with the scent
o. bloodhound, and the naIignity of q fend
That bad seotcbman never forgives or for
gets. He hated Jackson after he had b.
tfayed him. There Is scarcely public man
dead or living. whom he has not traduoed
Tor como real or imaginary cause Al to the
truth, he never rises TO that Falsehood i.
his vocation, ard be revels in 1t. Take for
instance, tho Herald of Wednesday last.
After abusing Gel Forney in regard to the
letter received by him from Mr.. Buchanan.
ana OF which Bennett has published q false
ana malignant version, he goes on to say that
mf' buchanan purchased the PHILADELPHIA
f'nnSyfra"'an for Mr.. Forney Although
Noi. e. and DIR Buchanan have been devoted
friends from the boyhood of tho latter. and
political history exhi bits few ms, O. Of such
unfaitering devotion as one has shown to the
other In every stage of Mr.. Euchanan's bril-
hant career, this assertion Of Bennett, Ia q
mon'trous lie. The Pennsylvania was
bought by Col. Forney himself, out of the hard
earnings Of years. THIS zoe kaow. And here
let rs add, in bare justice to Col Forney, in
all our associations with him, We never found
more honorable or high minded man. In.
stinctively be shrinks from those low little
things tia. Bennett gloats over and makes
his principal stock in trade. Bennett saws
"FoIney Is consistent" He is consistent N
his devotion to bis friends. A more generous
heart never beat; warmer or more constant
friend never lived
In reference to Benefits remark, that Mr..
Sicklss elected FOrney to the clerkship of tho
House Ut Representatives, We will say that if
Bennett had been hero just before the com
msnesment Of the present Congress, and had
seen the number Of stinguished gentlemen,
Of oil parties, from all parts of the country,
who took deeP interest and were sotivs in
bringing about Col. Forney's election, hard
snsd 10 crime - he 10 he would have hssi.
tatsd before giving rahlisip - such ssass.
