The Late j. G. Bennett.

HIS PERSONAL CoLLIsIoNs-THE ATTACKS
OF JAMES WATSON WEBB.
The New York World, in speaking of the
late James Gordon Bennett, thus refers to
some of his famous personal collisions:
In the way Of personal difficulties, collis-
ions and castigations, Mr.. Bennett has had
rather more than his share. These he ac-
cepted with meekness, but in philosophical
and politico-economical frame of mind. In
fact, by publishing accounts of the affrays in
his own paper he secured the double purpose
OF inducing people to buy the Herald and of
renewing those attacks which had provoked
the assaults. Noticeably was this the case
in his difficulties with general Watson Webb,
OF which the circumstances partake almost
OF the mock-historical. Mr.. Bennett twice
suffered street attacks from Mr.. Webb. The
first attack was made ON Wall street in the
month of January, 1886. On this occasion
Mr.. Bennett was knocked down and struck
with stick. Nothing daunted by this ad.:
venture, he told the story in the Herald, say
ing: General Webb, by going up behind me,
cut slash in my head, about one and half
inches in length, and through the integu-
ments Of the skull. The fellow, no doubt,
wanted to let out the never-failing supply of
good humor and wit which has created such
a reputation for the Herald, and appropriate
the contents to supply the emptiness of his
own thick skull. n " He has not in
jured the SKULL My ideas in a few DAYS will
flow as freshly as ever and he will find it so
to his cost" s4
The result of this candid report was that
the Herald containing the account of the
fracas sold 5000 copies. On the 9th of May,
1885, Mr.. Bennett was again assaulted by
Gen. Webb in Wall street. very near the
scene OF the former attack. AS was the case
with the first assault a newspaper controver-
sy led to this second exhibition of anger on
the part of Gen. Webb. The particulars of
this affair were also duly given in the Herald
by Mr.. Bennett. In his photographed &C
count OF it, after describing the mode of Gen.
Webb's attack, he SAID:
My damage is a scratch, about three-quar-
tiers of an inch in length, on the third finger
of the left hand, which 1 received from the
iron railing was forced against, and three
buttons torn from my vest, which any tailor
will reinstate for sixpence. His loss is a
rent from top to bottom of very beautiful
black coat, which cost the ruffian $40, and a
blow in the face, which may have knocked
down his throat some of his Internal teeth for
anything know. Balance in my favor $39.,
o.
Thus was it that even out of his misfor-
tunes did Mr.. Bennett extract nourishment
Tor his struggling paper. 1t was by such di-
rect gossip with the public, npon all imigina-
BILE subjects, light sketches of city life, and
half earnest and half cynical references to
events in which he himself figured, that in the
earlier years of the Herald was laid the
foundation of its ultimate success as a news
paper.

A DANGEROUS MAN.
Ry CORPORAL BUMP.

un sruxHn saws that GRANT is a bold, bad, dan
erous map.-NeDspdper.
"a hold bad man is Gen. GRANT"
Said FLOYD one gloomy nlgnt,
AS out from Donaldson ne crept,
And took his hasty night :.
From Pillows trembling lips there came
An echo sounding much the same.
And BUcKNER thought his chief was right,
Nor longer burst maintain the fight;
And then came down the rebel bars"
And from the fort hung stripes and stars.
"That GRANTS a dangerous manr' said they;
And doubtless think the same to-day.
"a bold, bad man is Gen. GRANT,
Said BEAUREGARD one morn,
AS from the naughty traitors brow
The victor's wreath was torn;
And from the field his legions went,
By orders Gen. GRANT had SENT
Then Shiloh's field was ours again,
Despite the host of rebel men,
Who came an army Boosting loud,
But went a panic-striken crowd;
For BEAUREGARD and all his men,
Perhaps thought GRANT was dangerous then.
"a bold, bad man is Gen. GRANT,"
Said PEMBERToN one day;
"Entreaties are of no avail.
He will not 60 away.
A stubborn. mulish, dangerous man!
He wants our rebel hides to tan"
And still GRANTS cannon raked the town,
Until the rebel flag came down;
And then our banners rent and torn
Were through the streets Of Vicksburg borne.
The " bold, bad man" that glorious " FOURTH
Sent gladstone tidings to the North.
GA bold, bad man is Gen GRANTp'
And poor BRACES eyes were dim
With tears; said he, " know
IT'S useless fighting him."
And soon the cheers of GRANTS brave men
On Lookout's crest, told where and when
The rebel General had to run,
And what that bold, bad man" had done.
That GRANTS a dangerous man!' he said,
As from the field his army fled.
"a bold, bad man is Gen. GRANTr'
Said LEE, " that's plain to see
He must be very bold, indeed,
To think of whipping me-"
Then Petersburg and Richmond fell;
Then Appot0max-may be-well,
At last our heroes work was done;
The final victory was won.
Perhaps the people may forget
These things, but then they havn't yet.
They needed them such dangerouS" men,
And think, perhaps they may again.
q A bold bad, dangerous man is GRANT;
JEFF DAVIS thought the same,
When running of in crinoline,
He to the % last ditch came
Kuklux's gentle voice was heard,
And" GRANT ID dangerous averred.
1t needs must be that this is SO,
For all these rebels ought to know.
Then HALL and TWEED-good honest men
Say GRANT is bold and bad" and when
Such men declare it, then, forsooth,
Folks know that SUMNER tells the truth.
