As Huen KENNEDY, the loyal Mayor oil
New Orleans, who Is now in this city, may
not be so well known as he ought to be, we
beg leave to introduce him to the public. He
is the man who on the llth day of septom.

eve dovoutly pray England may be com.
pelled by her manufacturing necessities, to
whip the Yankees; and IL perverssly she will
not do this we hope her efforts to get cotton
may prove abortiye."
And on the 10th of July, 1862, more than

We learn that Mr.. P. 7. BARSuN's story
of his disagreement with Mr.. BENNETT, of
the Herald, which has led to the secession Of
all the New York managers from the adver
tising columns of that paper, is this: When
BENNETT determined to buy the estate on
which BARSuM's Museum was burned, he
ascertained that BARsuM held q lease Of the
property, having five years to run, and paid
Mr.. BARSUN two hundred thousand dollars
in cash for the same. Meanwhile, before he
had completed the purchase of the ground,
for which he was to pay four hundred and
fifty thousand dollars, the owner thereofsailed
for Europe, TO be absent for an indefinite
period oftimo. Mr.. BENNETT, finding he could
not get immediate possession Of tho property,
desired Mr.. BARSUM to take back the lease and
to refund the money he had received for it.
This he declined to do, having, as he said,
spent the money as soon as he got 1t. Then
Mr.. Bennett realized the fact that BAR
NUNS Museum was humbug and BARSUM a
humbugger, and he piously resolved to taboo
Mr.. BARNUM as well as MARETzEK, and to
exclude their advertisements from the Her.
aid. This was just the opportunity for
BARSuM. He appealed to the Managers
Union, and they resolved to throw of their
slack allegiance to the Herald, to with
draw their advertisements from its columns
and their printing from its job Office. This
diminishes the profits of the Herald estab-
lishment about three thousand dollars 70
week and deprives its columns of one of -
features which made the paper valuable to
strangers visiting the city. As might have
been expected, the managers are much elated
at their emancipation from the yoke they
have been compelled to wear for these many
years past. They look upon BARSuM as their
delvercr and snap their fingers at BENNETT,
who has paid two hundred thousand dollars
for n short lease upon land he cannot pur-
chase, and choused himself out Of two thou
sand dollars a week, besides losing the grand
prestige of being the manager of the Mana
gers,
