LATEST n. Y. SENSATION.

Young James Gordon Bennet being
the owner of the greatest newspaper
in the country, the n. Y. Herald, with
daily income of $1,000 more or less,
has had his love affairs made the sub
ject Of more tender interest than gen
orally hap ems to poorer editors. The
reporters Swallowed him very closely
until they found out a year or so ago
flat he was engaged to Miss Caroline
May. Then several times they fixed
the wedding day. But every time j;
some how did not come off. But lastly
it was certainly fixed for january
ID. Then it was found out that the
bridal outfit cost $4,000 in Paris,
and that they did not want any dis
play, but they did want to 90 to Eu-
rope in the next steamer and wanted
a state room 'charmingly comfort
able But again the wedding did not
come off and last week these busy re-
po.ters found out other things when
were open secrets. Mr.. B, has SO
much more money than Other editors
that it has made him reckless and dis
sipated, and at times he would be "iust
awful in bis behaviour. Talked very
badly. Said he was tired of Miss
May. Would give any fellow $780,
900 to take her off his hands. Miss
May has big brothers. Such talk and
behaviour naturally made them mad.
One of them particularly-Fred May.
Fred first thought was to look for a
horse whip. Next thought to hang
round the Union Club doors until
Bennett came out to take his sleigh. =
But he did not take any sleigh. 1t
came nearer Staying. For Fred "lit
on him like bull -dozer and in rap
id succession there We're several slashes
across the face and streams of blood
and the next thing Bennett was pros
trate on the sidewalk and his assail-
ant coolly sitting upon him in triumph.
Then Fred walked away unmolested,
and Bennett was carried in to have his
wounds dressed. Now the talk among
the young Fifth Avenue blooJs is,
coffee and pistols for two But up
to last accounts there is no duel. We
hope there will not he. We hope
rather that Mr.. Bennett will reform
and even make the Herald first class
temperance paper. That would be
his noblest triumph. The beauty of
it all is that the Herald has not yet
heard the news.
Tuesdays paper brings US the news
that the antagonists met on Monday
at Slaughter's station, Delaware, near
the Maryland boundary line, fought
duel and May was seriously wounded.
The report is not generally believed
to be true.

English DomesdaY Book.

The "Domesday Book" of England and
Wales has at length appeared, and when
it's true character has been recognized,
will create an unusual amount of social
and perhaps political interest. 1t Is a
nominal roll Of every man in England
who possesses an acre of her soil, cover
ing every grade of proprietorship, from
the duke of Northumberland, who pos
sesses in single county 1S1, 900 acres OF
soil, yielding on an average nearly FL an
acre or the duke of Devonshire, with
SO, 600 acres in Derbyshire alone; to
the retired tradesman, who talks of the
"grounds of an acre and half SUP
rounding his Middlesex or Surry villa.
Every man who has copy can tell at a
glance how much land the neighboring
magnate, OR his own rival in the county,
or the new purchaser who has just called
on him, possesses of the soil, and what
the amount of his rent-roll would be if
it were unburdened, both stated with
official accuracy and clearness. The
book shows that less than 5000 per-
sons are landowners in England in the
political sense of the rd.-Spectator.

Old Time Turks.

I saw a battalion of Turkish volun-
teers the other day which is just leaving
for the Caucasus, writes Constantine
pie correspondent. This battalion has
been organized by one man at his own
expense. He pays, feeds, clothes and
equips the men, and will only cease his
expenditure for this regiment when 1t
actually embarks for the seat OF war.
Such things do not cost so much here as
in America. This man has equipped and
rationed for two weeks 870 men for about
s35, 900 in gold, but the money is worth
more here than in America, and shows
the patriotism of an old Turk. Another
Turk, who is hero in the hearts OF the
people, is the Bashi- Bazouk chief who
has had command of the irregulars who
have SO far resisted the Russian attacks at
Batoum. This man, Ali Pasha OF
Chourouh Sou, when boy OF thirteen
went with his father to take the Russian
Fort st. Nicholas just over the border,
during the Crimean war. The party
surprised and massacred the garrison by
night, having scaled the walls by means
of their swords stuck into the walls Tor
ladders. He seems to be fit son OF
such father, reveling in blood and
holding his Thermopyl@ against the
fercest assaults.

A Female Fagin.

For many weeks Jersey City On. J.)
shopmen who hang their goods outside
as an attraction to customers have
missed small articles. The larcenies
were not extensive, and they might have
been endured for months but for the ac-
cidental discovery of the way they were
committed. Apoor woman living onthe
Heights found her ten-year old daughter
in possession of a handsome new lace
frilled baby cap. The little girl, with
many tears, confessed that she had stolen
the cap from in front of Zabinski's New
ark avenue millinery store. She had
been induced to commit that and other
thefts, she said, by Mrs. ONeil of lis
Ninth street, who gave her few pen
nies for each article stolen. Mrs. ONeil
had led astray many other young girls
in the same way, and she lived on the
proceeds of their larcenies. Themother
babe her daughter take the cap to Mrs.
O'Neil and say nothing. She herself
went to Mr.. Zabinski and told the story.
A warrant was procured and Mrs.
O'Neil's house searched. The missing
cap and many other articles which were
undoubtedly stolen were found there.
Mrs. O'Neil was arrested. Six young
girls were found who had been taught
by her to steal.
