The New York herald., 1862-03-31

The Black Knights ef the Wooliy Heads.
Floating around among our Western ex-
changes, like a dirty chip in a mud puddle, we
find a paragraph stating that the HERALD, Journal
Of Commerce, Erpress, and French paper of
this city; the Courier and Post, Of Boston; the
Times, of Hartford; the Atlas and Argus,
Of Albany, and half o dozen other pa
pers, of Rochester, Buffalo, Detroit and Chica-
60, are the organs of the Golden Circle, and
edited by Knights Of this sublimely silly order
of demerit
The idea of mixing up the New YORK HERALD
with parcel of such trashy journals as those
named above is very ridiculous, and renders it
perfectly unnecessary for us to pronounce the
whole story absurd and untrue. The Journal
OF Commerce is a mean, weak, pusillanimous
sheet, edited by Aminadab Sleek and partial
to statistics, with which, on the principle that
figures cannot lie, the Journal tries to balance
its daily modicum of untruths The Express is
only remarkable for its nine hundred and nine
ty-nine daily editions, each surpassing the
other in bosh and exclamation points, and for
its proverbial propensity to steal news from its
contemporaries without word Of credit, and
then claim it as Especial" because it was so
headed in the paper from which Brooks stole it,
The French paper alluded to is edited by
three hungry Frenchmen who are more likely
to be Knights Of the Cross or the Round Table
than of any Circle, however golden. The Bos-
ton Courier is a stilted, heavy paper, warranted
to produce sleep. as certainly as dose of lauda-
mum, and much used by old ladies as substi-
tute for Godfrey's cordial The Boston Post is
a sneaking, contemplate affair, known as poor
Pierce's model newspaper, and has been feed
ing for twenty-five years at the public crib to
preserve its little life The Hartford Times is
a Little Peddlington concern about as large as
sheet of note paper, and as blank as the profit
accounts of the Tribune. The Albany Atlas and
Argus is as mean as it's editor, the unannealed
Cassidy, who is himself so mean that no thief is
foolish enough to waste time in trying to pick
his empty pockets. The balance of this scurvy
crew of dirty papers are miserable spoils-hunt-
ers, never seen in decent society.
Instead Of making fools of themselves by re-
presenting the HERALD as one Of the organs
of the Knights of the Golden Circle-who are
rather Knights Of the Golden Horn, which
filled with whiskey, is passed around
circle until the horn is empty and the
Knights full--our Western contemporaries
had better devote themselves to an exposition
of the Order of the Black Knights of the Woolly
Heads. This organization has been in existence
for thirty years Its objects are to promote the
black, and degrade the white race by crossing
the breeds, as English farmers cross their breeds
of horses, cattle and swine. Greeley, Beecher,
Cheever, Garrison, Phillips, Aaron and other
worthless are the Grand Commanders of this
Order and two of them have recently received
the Order Of the Bath, in the shape of shower
of rotten eggs, at Cincinnati and Burlington re-
spectively. The chapters of this Order are
called Amalgamation Societies, free love and
Fourrierite institutions and the like The Tribune,
Times, World and Evening Post are the grand
organs of this grand Order, and keep up grand
putting and blowing about it every day. JEFF.
Davis and other Southern rebels are believed to
be prominent members; for the Order zealously
promotes their interests and assails the Union
The Albany and Washington lobbies are the
treasures of the Order which has just sent
out, at vast expense, a flock Of missionaries to
Beaufort, South Carolina. Depend upon it, the
proceedings of the Knights Of the Woolly
Heads will better repay investigation than
those Of the Golden Circle, and demand, just
at present the most attention.
