A DESERVED THRAsHfNG.-Therea appears
to be no doubt that Bennett of the Herald act
cd a mean and unmanly part in his course
towards his aflianced, Miss May. He is
young man of almost boundIess wealth, and
entirely boundless social ambition. lie has
sought to play the part of an American lord,
displaying princely cxtravagance in all his
pleasures, indulging mall sorts Of Fashionable
follies and sports and pastimes, and draining
the cup of pleasure To its very dregs. HIay-
ing exhausted all other sources he finally
thought 1t wauld be pleasant thing to have
wife, with a magnificent wedding, great dis
play, grand tour, &c. But long before the
wedding day came around he tired of this
novelty, his prospective matrimonial bonds
became irksome, and he longed for his free
dom again. Then he began course of gross
and unmanly annoyanccs toward Miss Mays
family in order, there seems to be no doubt,
to disgust them with the alliance, and cause
them to break it off. Mrs May was connois-
seur in old china, and had fine collection
Beunett is said to have gone to her house
when intoxicated, and broken a lot of this
He also smashed large and costly mirror
and destroyed other furniture. He often
went there when under the influence of liquor
and made himself offensive in the extreme.
The poor girl, who undoubtedly loved the
graceless piped, stuck to and defended her
lover from her relatives all through these es-
capades. Finally the day for the wedding drew
near. The time fixed was the Sd instant, the
brides trousseau had arrived from Europe,
and passage had been engaged ON the steam
ship Russia for the bride and groom. In
stead Of fulfilling it like a man, he got drunk
and went to the house and was SO outrage
ously insulting in his demonstrations both in
the house and in the street, that Miss Mays
father peremptorily broke the engagement.
This, added to the fact that Bennett had pub
licly declared that be would give any man
hundred thousand dollars to take Miss May
off his hands, so incensed Miss Mays broth
ers that they resolved to ohastise him. That
they were extremely unwise in taking such a
coure there is no doubt. But there is still
less doubt that Mr.. Bennett richly deserved

~ Vanderbilt at last is dead, and all his power
and his millions are left behind him. There
are some things to be said of him that are
good, and one Is that during the rebellion he
played tho part of a patriot in nsing his
wealth lavishly for the salvation of the govern
1nent. But we are afraid that his kindest
friends win find II hard to make a very long
list of his good actions. He was a hard, sell
fish, merciess man in private affairs. He
used his wealth pitessly TO crush those who
opposed or rivalled him he graspcd every
thing that he could place ais hands on he
rnincd hundreds Of better men by his dexter
Gus manipulations of stocks aud he rarely
lent helping hand TO anybody but his own
relatives. Such a life is not beautiful even
when it is viewed in the light of the kindest
charity. No just man would wish his son to
initiate snch an example. and the only moral
that can be drawn from Vanderbilt's career is
this. that great wealth and grest power are
to the possessor and to the community a curse
ruher than a blessing, unless they are used
for better purposes than selfish aggrandz-

1t has been ascertained that the man who
attracted SO much attention In New York a
couple of weeks ago, by his eccentric CONDUCT
5 in calling himself Christ, and who had pre-
viously stopped at house on Front street,
Philadelphia, under She name of Dant, was
an inmate of the New Jersey Lunatic Asylum,
from which Institution he had escaped few
weeks ago. 1t appears that his correct name
is John @. Daudt, and he was formerly cut
ter in tailoring establishment in Bridgeton
In the year 1875 he drew a prize of $4,000

ferro stands prominently high; for from the
Mexican war, during the John Brown rald
where he: commanded all Of the troops),
through the whole of the civil conflict lat
the close OF which be ranked as maior-Sen'
eran, to the present time, he has been con.
stantly laboring in behalf OF his State. Gen
eral ialiaferro is the present head OF the
Conservative party in the State, and in that
Dosition he has sacrificed time, money, and
ease in carrying out successfully the great
principles OF the party. We are glad To
know that from all parts OF the State his
name is favorably mentioned in connection
with the governorship, and that several pa
pers have announced their intention to sup
mort him with all the energy Mt their com.
mand. While opposed to any divisional
lines in the State, we think the Underwater
section merits the office when she presents
an able and favorite son for the position.
