GossIP ABOUT TIE HERALn,--Since Pryor
pitched into the New York Herald editor
so saVagely, more or less has said qbou the
management aud perSOaaslle of that paper
A correspondent says that it has some very
extraordinary men engaged upon it. The
principal editorial writer, is the celebrated
Dr.. Jones, who is the real author of the
Impending Crisis of the South" by Helper.
That book was compiled by DIR. Jones, in
the Herald Office, from facts and statements
that have been sttested by Mr. Bennett.
Helper may have assisted the Doctor. As
proof of this, let me call your attention to
the fact that nothing of any consequence
was said about the book, until few days
before the meeting Of Congress; then the
Herald opened upon it. republishing ex-
tracts and abusing it editorially, day after
day until members of Congress engaged in
the discussion, and the fortune of Dr. Jones,
Helper and Burdick, the publisher was
made"

EUROPEAN CoNGREss According to pre-
sent indications the European congress on
Italian affairs will not be held. 1t begins to
look as If Napoleon had been shrewdly man
aging for this result. 1t puts affairs in the
very best position for Italy and leaves Ma
poleOn free from many embarrassments
With no congress the course of events will
decide the questions in Italy, the Romogna
will remain free and the duchies will retain
their independence, and the pope will be
able to reproach nobody, while Napoleon
will say TO the Catholics Of France that
the pope might have retained his territories
If he had listened to his prudent advice aud
granted the people political reforms. The
pope has new perplexity in the intimation
of Sardinia, if he continues to enrol German
volunteers for the papal army. Sardinia
insists that this employment Of foreign mer-
cenaries by The pope is in violation of the
principle of nountervention.'
The whole Catholic church is deeply
moved on this question, and it requires no
prophetic vision to see that if it is pressed
to decision there will be deep upheaval
Of the elements in that church. The pope
if he is prudent will foresee the evil and
hide himself lie will allow his people
their. political freedom rather than risk the
subverSion Of both his temporal power and
his spiritual supremacy.

that messenger sent yesterday by one OF our
government officials, to Senator Trumbul, and sub

that the Breckes in Illinois will vote the Lincoln ticket

Now that is beautiful spectacle for the Breckenridge
men to present before the country-for who claim
to be the only trueand reliable friends of the South =
We know that the Brecknrdgers and Republicans fused
at the late elections in the North but had no idea
that Southern Breckinridgers contemplated fusion with
the Republicans of Missouri Is there any scheme of
