Dana and Bonner fairly burst with
spleenLDana because he didn't invent
the Byronlscandal, and Bonner because
he didn't get it for the Ledger. "Dsm-

to me !? Why, I'd d have paid her cool %
$4,000 for it, 'a - yisaijd noa ed
This is not only q falsehood, but it is
. falsehood which no one at all acquaint-
ed with me could ever have invented.
Whatever / might have thought about
Mrs. Stowe article, it would have been
quite contrary to my habit Of speech to
characterize it by the word "Damna-
tion;" but this | must say, that 4 million
Of dollars could not have induced me to
print that gross and indecent article in
the Ledger, mo matter what the pub
fishers of the Atlantic Monthly were
willing to DO ~ Few women have
evinced so much talent as Mrs. Stowe.
/ have myself purchased articles from
her for which / have cheerfully paid
her a high price; but they were very
different articles from tho one under
consideration. And l do not believe
that any true friend who was himself
in his right mind could have advised her
to sell for any sum that morbid, terri
bio and unnatural hallucination about
Lord Byron. For her sake 1 sincerely
and deeply regret that she has done it.
I know of no article published ia my
lifetime calculated to exert a more inju-
rious and emoraliaing influence on the
rising generation, and for this reason u
wish everybody to know that nothing
would have tempted me to publish it. z

the work of stockholders, are being
circulated. 0 an Ii u Y2161
There is no doubt that the state of the
health of the Emperor ID really such as
to create anxiety on the part of the
public. He suffers from diseases of the
bladder. ,1hsd different political parties,
in and out of the Legislature, are busily
engaged in specializing as to the issue
of shis physical affection. The imperial
family is also alarmed. 1t is said that
the Empress Eugene will hasten back
from Corsica Immediately, in conse-
quence of the receipt Of news of such
import from home, and that the idea Of
her trip to the East will be abandoned.
Prince Napoleon Bonaparte intensd,
it is said, to make democratic speech
in the Senate some day during the next
ensuing week, but his friends are OPP
posed to its delivery just now. They
allege that il the present empire should
fall, his pretended democracy will not
save his position in the, eyes of the
French people, IAN wv ~
The Empress condemns his conduct
towards such path and issue, as be-
ing both unwiss and ungrateful.
