The New York Herald saws:

Lying seems to be one of the arms on which the
rebel chiefs place their main dependence.
1t must be very distressing to the truth-loVing,
conscientious editor of the Herald, to see how the
rebels lie. We can imagine the pain it costs that
pure, good, virtuous and moral man. Bennett, to
notice SO many rebel lies. We expect that if he
thought he ever told an untruth in his life he would
go and hang himself.
Of all the impudent things in the world, the idea
that the most notorious liar that ever lived lee
lures other people on the subject, is decidedly the
most impudent and refreshing.

Ed Crescent We see it stated in your paper of

bales of cotton received by us a few days since
aoere not of aseaD crop.
The statement did not come from and was not
authorized BY Us. The shipment was OF new crop,
ton Rouge Mills.
We did not sign the Gard to Cotton Planters, 2

publication of that card, we requested patrons
until the blockade was raised, and have continued
to do so since, both by letter and circular.

We were requested to state that some cotton re-
