tracts from the New York Daily JYewa, I
which leave hut little doubt npon the j
mind that James Gordon Bennett is i
not oniv tho implacable foe of thc I
South, bue likewise of tho United
States entire; in fact the enemy of all
who do not offer to reward him. Ile ;
was the first to agitato secession; andfi
nt ono time absolutely advocated the
secession of New York Ci!y tn 18G1,
as an 'independent city,' bur, the Abo?
litionists, both of !Ne\v England and
other Northern Staten, knew his weak?
ness, and bs was, therefore, easily con?
verted to their views by the sight of
gold.
Itjhas be^n whispered that in the
beginning (,f the war, tins selfsame
Vid man' wrote .a' letter to Mr. Davis,
then the President of the Confederate
Stator, offering to support, the poiicv
of his Government lor the sum of
**: ft y thousand pounds sterling-this is
reported to be a fact by men of inllu
euc? who are presumed to know; and
as Mr. Davis i-s now a prisoner in the
int mis of the Government, we most
respectfully suggest that he be called
upon to acknowledge whether or not
our assertion is correct. Mr. Davis
refused this disgusting proposition, and
hence the malignity of th:s 'poor old
man' to the So.-.;I?.

immense rolls <>f manuscript, enough,
to give a complete" history of the re?

and erich morning speeds a season in
singing hymns, virbich Mie does with a
good voice and mucbjfepirit. Ile main?
tains a haughty air and stands on bis

OWEH THE CONVICT.
OJ?^HE HEARTS DEVOTION,
ii perhaps the Git LATEST ROMANCE of
modern times, not excepting th? moat po?
pular of I)umas' works. It is the story of
n youth pushed into crime by the force of
Circumstances, and of a pure, devoted,
whole-souled woman, who refused to be?
lieve in his guilt, and nobly stood hy him
tid thc last. While it has ail the touching
pathos of the 'Ticket of leave Man," it at
the same time is brim-full of the most ex?
traordinary and soul stirring adventures
by land and sea. 'Die bero^ets out of one
difficulty into mother with a rapidity
which is wonderful, find which shows the
most unexampled ingenuity on the part of
the highly-gifted author, who holds his
readers as if spell hound from the opening
to the close. Old romancers who have
read thc manuscript-men who have been
familiar with Story reading and story
writing throughout, their lives, have been
so entranced with this truly wonderful
story that they have found it impossible to
lay it duwn till they had read to the very
last line.
THE NEXT STOBY IS ENTITLED
Thia is from thc pen of our highly gifted
contributor. ---, and is, beyond
question, the finest thing she has thus far
written, lt is full of love and mystery,
and possesses a charin which cannot fail
to fascinate all who may read it.
