Bonner of the New-Ycrk Ledger some few days since
offered the Hon. Edward Everett $4,000 in ali OF the
Mount Vernon Fund, condition that NJ. Everett
should write every week for the Ledger for one year
Mr. Everett. accepted the offer, the $4,000 has been
paid and Mr.. Everett, therefore, " writes for the
Ledger" All this has been the occasion os some
satire on Mr. Bonner for his clever dodge, as il has
D. en- cali. a. AID some light remark Mr. Everett
for his " STOPPING down" TO MIR. BoDners columns.
Neither the satire nor the light remark are seemiy.
Doubtless the engagement of Mr.. Everett is grand
move 20 make money, but it is q egit mate one and
does 10 nj show, aside from money an aim on the
part Of the owner TO elevate the character of his
papsrl We think il does, and We give MIR. Bonner
credit for this aim. And when IL is remembered that
the writings Of the polished scholar Mr. Everett will
now be broadcast before Thousands of readers which
they never reached before and that nothing but goo
can result tbereom il must be admitted that the only
" STOPPING" Mr.. Everett will make is the graceful
bending OF the scholar to elevate and refine the minds
of al whom he can possibly reach.
