Correspondence of The Chicago Republican. ]
NHw York, July 81, lS65.
You will have noticed q paragraph In
the Tribune Iri6H,ls, l mean-to the
effect of Mr.. Bennett, of the Herald, has
become the proprietor OF the ground which
Barnum, Joics Heth, Tom Thumb, and the
Fat Girl, have forever rendered elias sic.
Never was . more ruling and persistent
idea more happily realized. For
these last dozen years the Herald had
outgrown It's cradle, and for so long its
parent has been on the look out for the
wider accommodations. The first choice
was the site of the museum, for 1t Is un-
questlonably the most conspicuous point
in New York, more human beings passing
1t In the course OF q day than pass any
other spot In tie eastern world. Knowing
the value of advertising, and the CONNER
cial advantages of prominent position
and sign-board over other methods OF
reaching publicity, Mr.. Bennett long has
longed to displace Barnum, aud only two
years ago abandoned the hope. He cast
his eyes towards the triangle known as
Printing House Square, and was at one
moment not disinclined to buy the side
facing the Times office, extending from
Chatham TO Centre streets. The remote
ness of the spot aud the disagreeable prox-

dissuaded him. and at last he dismissed
the idea Of removal, and set about enlarg-
ing his actual premises. His workmen
were buey occupied in adding to the Her
aid building the adjoining property on Ann
street, when Barnum became a prey TO the
flames, and the ground the property of
Bennett. The price, $3.50, 900, was IN der
ate, If, as is understood, the recent owner
had out of the sum to buy up Mr.. Bar
num- lease, having twelve years to run,
for the shrewd Snowman declined to sell
for dollar less than S200, 900. Thus, what
with his handso me indemnity for his lossi
and the indemnity of Insurance. companies
for losses by FIRE, Mr.. Barnum rather max es
by the operation; and, remembering his
large holdings of the real estate in. and
around Bridgeport, we may set him down
as millionaire. Some Years ago he Sc
cured lots up town, near Union square, for
the erection of new mu cum, SO he was
singularly ready,fos his so-cslled cslamity

MISCELLANY.


Too MUCH METAL FOR JonN Bull
Recently, when the United States war
steamer Wyoming was at Simon's Bay,
Cape of Good Hope, several of that vcs-
sells officers on shore met number OF
English officers from an English vessel Of
war in she bay, One Of the Englshmen,
putting circular piece Of glass i'll front OF
one Of his eyes, asked, in an ironically
obsequious manner:
Officer, how many guns do you
carry ~"
"Six,' replied the officer of the Wyom-
ing. ..
"Oh we carry eleven" said the Eng
lishman, Strengthening out in very pomp-
Gus manner,
"What weight of metal do you throw
at a broadside I" asked the officer of the
Wyoming.
"About eighty pounds" answered the
Englishman, initiating himself with a mix
ture OF wind and pride.
