The New York Herald sgoes back on its
new political affiliations. Its advocacy Of
Grant aud denunciation of Seymour was
short-lived; yet it doubtless accomplished
Mr.. Bennetts purpose, which it Is fair to in

seems, was, only coquetting with Tammany,
and trying TO make the Democracy see that
its virtuous influence was worth purchasing.

so deeply but q few days ago.
