1t certainly takes The Herald long time to
annhiIate these wonderful men, who like the
'dendralized Democracy" must be hard to
dispatch. The plain truth is, the politica
editorials in The New York Herald are simply
ridiculous and nonsensical. 1t is expected b.
intelligent readers, that newspaper writer's will
sometimes produce fresh article, an article
containing something new or novel, or pcrlias
instructive. They surely do not want to reao
over the same trash every morning before
breakfast, Will, the slight variation from "Wai-
ker," Slitell," WISE" pierce" /" jefferson,

chorus The Herald hath surely lost the salt,
if it ever had any, wherewlth 1T was savored
and Bennett is daft This sclfeensttuted type
of progressive literature is the most unprogressve
animal we ever heard Of, uecss it is he who
trots round OH the tread mill. He poor wretch;
is constantly moving, but always brings Mp at
the point from which he started. Bennett is
perhaps experimenting before he makes trial.
Whenever this bundle of contradictions eX-
presses an opinion derogatory to any one, the
public may safely conclude that the person so
attacked is worthy Of being regarded IA high
ly honorable man. 1t is possible that this
style Of compositions, peculiar to the The New
I ork Herald, has been adopted, because Of the
light recently thrown upon Bellies Lcttres by

have had great weight in favor of the JEFF.
