! being proposed and discussed.
The New York Herald and the South.
Since We have taken an interest in the present
political revolution which is sweeping like tor
nado over the country, against all the old fac
tons of tie last twenty years, and fayoring the
| development Of new parties, new principles and
new men, more suitable to the times in which we
live, We have received great many notices from
! our contemporaries throughout the Union, some
of them cot very complimentary in many re-
| spects, but almost all Of them ignorant, super
| fetal and shallow. Because we inclined towards
the revolution which is bearing the new man,
| Fremont, to the White House, we have been es-
pecialy denounced by the organs Of the admins
| tration az 'treacherous to Buchanan and trear
cherous to the South We have also been
called by the Richmond Enquirer, and other shall
low sheets of the same party, by all the vile
names common to the vocabularies Of the ..giz-
zard-foot' politicians of Virginia and the like
politicians Of the Five Points Of New York in
the present day. We have said very little on the
subject of these accusations and cared less for
them; bat we find the following extract from
New York paper in the Carolina Times, published
at Columbia, South Carolina, with some remarks
Of the latter journal, which we think it well to
place before our readers, with some explanations
| Of our own
From the New York Day Book.]
BENEFITS HERALD Is fast losing subscribers since the
unaccountabe whim that carried over 10 the black
publican cause.
Perhaps Mr. Bennett; will see the day when be will re-

ten thousand dollars out of his pocket.
The following are the remarks of the South

We have very little, If any, confidence in Northern

There seems to be a good deal Of sense in
the view taken of the matter by our South Caro-
lima contemporary. The idle stuff promulgated
by the shallow politicians attached to the Bucha
nan staff, as to the HERALDs losing subscribers in
Philadelphia and the South In consequence Of the
course II mas recently pursued, scarcely deservesa
reply. The circulation Of the HERALD never was

requisite machinery, which is now making for Us
by Messrs Hoe Il Co, instead Of the 10000 dsily
copies which we are a, present printing, we
would soon reach 100000 day.
With regard to the alleged alteration in the
character Of our circulation, we can state with
perfect truth that the recent course OF the
HERALD, instead of diminishing, has rather in
creased he number Of our subscribers in the
South. The circulation Of the HERALD in
the South was never but a very small part
Of it, support, as Il viii always be but small
part Of the support Of any Northern paper. For
the Last ten or fifteen years our circulation in
Boston and Massachusetts alone has been eguol to the
,rhole Of our circulation in the Southern Staes The
truth il that the Northern States are the great
newspaper readers; and never has an idea Of cir
culatior, patronage or support entered our heads

sued In relation 70 - political or party issues. or
governmental questions, eff the country For the
last thirty years we have supported the constitu-
tional righs Of the South on the negro az well az
on other questions But we never professed to
be Southern journal, or to support exclusively
the rights Of the South, or the rights Of any sec-
ton Of the Union. Our allegiance has always
been given, az It was due, TO the constitution its
principles and its compromises; but to nothing be

institution, we have always regarded slavery in
the South in favorable light, both as an existing
element Of society and az an indispensable neces-
ity in warm tropical ATTITUDES. We have lived
In the South as well az in the North and are per-
sonally acquainted with the condition of labor in
both sections Of the country. From experience.
We know and believe that Southern slave labor.
