The Richmond Commercial Bulletin,
of the 22d, publishes several extracts
from the New York Daily Nc,oS, whicl,
leave but little doubt upon the mind that
James Gordon Bennett is not only the
implacable foe of the South, but likewise
of the United States entire; in fact the
enemy of all who do not offer to reward
him. He was the first to agitate seces.
sion; and at one time absolutely advoca-
ted the secession of New York City in
1861, as an independent city, but the
Abolitionists, both of New England and
other Northern States, knew his weak
ness and he, therefore, was easily conv-
erted to their views by the sight of gold
1t has been whispered that in the be.
ginning of the war, this self same old
man wrote a letter to Mr. Davis, then
the President of the Confederate States,
offering to support the policy of his Gov.
ernment for the sum of fifty thousand
pounds sterling-this is reported to be q
fact by men of influence who are pre-.
sumed to know and as Mr.. Davis
is nowa a prisoner in the hands of the
Government, we most respectfully sug.
gest that he be called upon to acllnowl.
edge whether or not our assertion B cor.
rect. Mr.. Davis refused this disgusting
proposition, and hence the malignity Of
this poor old man to the South.
